The compartment on the second floor of the Tianxiang Gambling House.

As soon as Yi Xiao entered the compartment, he sat down, picked up Su Fu's tea, took a sip, and got straight to the point.

"Su Fu, I haven't seen you for seven years. ”

Su Dashao stepped into the compartment with his back feet, and after hearing this, he waved his hand to signal everyone to retreat to ensure that there were no outsiders in the compartment. His eyes then fell on Song Zhiqing, who was carrying a huge green cloth knife, and the meaning was self-evident.

Yi Xiao said with a smile, "He is the descendant of the sword ghost that was rumored not long ago." You can rest assured. ”

Su Fu looked Song Zhiqing up and down, and sneered, "It turns out that he said that he was going to pick a sword wine party in the world, and he was actually such a guy who didn't know how to swordsmanship." After speaking, he waved his hand, "Since you have come to the door, there must be something important." You can't just want me to fulfill the gamble you made right now, right?"

Yi Xiao stretched out a finger and shook it gently, "It has nothing to do with the gambling contract back then." ”

"Young Master Su. Yi Xiao's outstretched finger bent slightly, slowly tapping on the coffee table, "You came to Fengting City this time." It was the old man at home who spoke. ”

Su Fuxuan narrowed his eyes, "What do you mean? If you have something to say, don't beat around the bush with me." ”

"Okay! That's what you're waiting for. Yi Xiao smiled, "I'm here today to make a deal with you." ”

Su Fu smiled subconsciously, "You want to make a deal with me?"

Yi Xiao said, "Su Dashao, others don't know what it means for you to appear in Fengting City. I know that. With the power of the Su family, I am afraid that I already knew what would happen in this sword wine meeting. The more turbulent it is, the more profitable it is. ”

Su Fu snorted coldly, "Go on." ”

Yi Xiao glanced at Su Dashao, "Other families don't dare to wade into troubled waters, but the Su family dare." Not to mention anything else, after Emperor Wei sealed the Fengting Court, if there is any change, I am afraid that the Su family is also a hole card. Based on this alone, the Su family ...... It can be said that it is bold. ”

The cold sweat on Su Dashao's forehead was already oozing out, and he didn't know ...... This is just Yi Xiao's temptation!

From hearing that the news of "Chess Palace assassinated the lord of Longque County" was released, to learning that the four kings of the Northern Wei Dynasty had entered the city, Yi Xiao was in his mind...... There has always been a speculation. Emperor Cao Zhixuan of Wei, his style of acting is difficult to figure out, and there is no room for a little sand in his eyes, after the four kings established Wei, the four kings nominally guarded the Quartet, could it be that the Wei Emperor...... Do you really feel at ease to hand over the military power to them? Luoyang's ...... It's been silent for sixteen years. This time, it's really time to act.

Of course, speculation is just speculation. However, Su Dashao's reaction just proved Yi Xiao's guess.

Yi Xiao's face was calm, "Of course, this has nothing to do with our transaction this time. Su Fu, I came this time to ...... with you Make a deal in your own name. I'll help you get into the top ten of the sword club, and you will help me...... Win the first place at the reception. ”

When Su Fu heard this, the teacup he picked up stopped at his mouth, the mist rose, and he couldn't see his expression clearly for a while.

"Brother Yi...... You, aren't you kidding?"

Yi Xiao was still smiling, "What do you think...... Am I joking? Seven years ago, I had already reached the realm of 'Eye Opening Lotus', and now that the Lotus has gone one step further, how can I not see that the 'Young Master Su', who has been passed down from generation to generation, is a master of the eighth rank with hidden strength. ”

Su Fu said expressionlessly, "Since you can see that I am hiding my strength, don't you know what kind of calculation I have in my heart." ”

Yi Xiao smiled and said, "You don't want to inherit the position of the head of the family." ”

When the words landed, the slightly bloated fat man was silent, and suddenly raised his head and looked at the black-clothed young man in front of him.

Yi Xiao then spoke, "But have you ever thought that even though you have been a fool for more than ten years, even if your sister is several times stronger than you in every aspect...... The patriarch of the Su family still hasn't given up hope for you, and still thinks that you are the only choice for the head of the Su family!

"Do you really think ...... As long as you continue to maintain this gentlemanly appearance, you can fool the past!" Yi Xiao sneered, "Su Fu, the Su family is the head of the eight families, why do you think that the Su family can tolerate a gentleman who has not learned and has no skills for so many years?"

"Do you really think that you came to Fengting City just to have fun in the gambling house?" Yi Xiao squinted his eyes and said word by word, "I can tell you clearly." Your past inaction, the Su family sees it in their eyes. The reason why it can tolerate you is only because it needs to give itself a reasonable reason. The reason is very simple, because Su Fu was still young at that time, and he always needed time to sharpen it. ”

"Now, what qualifications do you have to pretend to be a gentleman?" Yi Xiao raised her voice, stood up, and said coldly, "Compared to this...... Cowardly retreat, you have thought about going to the entire Su family openly...... Raise your protest. ”

Su Fu was silent.

The world doesn't know what the Jinyu Su family represents.

There are eight great families in the world, headed by the Jinyu Su family.

Since he was a child, Su Fu has been implemented a set of tirades, about family inheritance, about being the eldest son of the Su family, about martial arts practice, and about ......

About what you don't like, everything.

Su Fu doesn't like inconsistencies, doesn't like business negotiations, doesn't like to make friends with powerful people, and doesn't like to talk to each other. But almost all of what the Su family taught him was like this...... He ran away from home, pretended to be degenerate, and pretended to be depraved. Why?

Because of him, I really don't want to ...... Inherit the position of head of the family.

That position, for others, is a supreme honor.

For Su Fu, it will only bring endless pain.

Su Fu thought that he didn't need gold and silver, he only needed a river and lake.

He doesn't want a house full of gold and jade, he just wants to wander the rivers and lakes.

But if you want to be the head of the Su family, where are the rivers and lakes to speak of? The offerings of the Su family are all masters of the nine grades, and the Su family wants to kill people, and the world needs to give way!

That kind of Su family is incompatible with the rivers and lakes.

Nature is incompatible with Su Fu.

"I really...... I'm helping you. Yi Xiao whispered softly, but her voice was like a heavy hammer hitting Su Fu's heart.

"Haven't you ever thought about using your own strength to try to resist? ”

Silent. There was a long silence.

Song Zhiqing was carrying a green cloth knife on his back, and he didn't know what to say.

In his opinion, if Yi Xiao said these words and Su Fu still didn't agree, it was really unlikely.

After a half-silence.

"Heh......" Su Fu raised his head, "Let's count me believing in your evil." But you have to think about it...... If I really get rid of the position of the head of the Su family, I will not be able to fulfill my promise in the gambling contract back then. ”

"Hehe......" Yi Xiao smiled smugly and retreated to the chair, "You don't have to worry about this." Next, I'm going to talk about my plans. ”

"First of all, let's talk about the reception. Yi Xiao put on a serious expression, "As far as I know, one of the chess players who came to participate in this reception is extremely strong. If she is solved, then the leader of the drinking party, not surprisingly, will be in my pocket. ”

Su Fu paused and said, "Brother Yi (Su Fu already knows about Yi Xiao's current name change)...... It's not that I'm reckless. According to what you said, if you get rid of that extremely strong chess player, you will have the confidence to win the championship of the cocktail party, is this a bit too much?"

Yi Xiao had expected this question, and said with a smile, "No, I have to correct you two points." ”

"First of all, that very strong chess player is not as easy to solve as you think. Otherwise, I wouldn't have found you today. ”

"Secondly, if the plan really succeeds and can solve that extremely strong chess player, I don't have the confidence to win the championship of the cocktail party......" Yi Xiao paused, "I am inevitable, absolutely, there will be no accident, and I will take the cocktail party leader." ”

"Aside from certain factors, in terms of personal strength alone. Yi Xiao's tone was even a little indifferent, "Those powerful chess players are nothing more than powerful computing power, plus the chess games memorized in your mind. And that very strong chess player, including me...... It has gone beyond the scope of normal people. ”

Yi Xiao closed her eyes, and when she opened them again, her pupils were already a blue color.

"I see, Zhu Lian Xiang...... Su Fu nodded thoughtfully, "In this way, it is indeed beyond the scope of normal people." I understand. Please go ahead. ”

Yi Xiao nodded and returned to her normal pupils.

"The first step I need from you, to put all that in mind...... It's all the information of the chess players at the cocktail party, and all the information is sent to my room on the eighth floor of the Star Picking Building. Yi Xiao used the word "send", which showed that he knew that with a huge force of the Su family's level, these materials had already been collected.

"It's a small thing. I'll ask someone to sort it out, and I'll be able to deliver it tomorrow. Su Fu disagreed.

"Please choose five...... has lost his life to the chess master of Tianxiang Casino. Yi Xiao continued, "No matter what your strength is, it doesn't matter. These five chess players, please tell him that his task is to abstain when he meets me in the first round. ”

Su Fu rubbed his eyebrows, "You ...... What does that mean?"

Yi Xiao nodded his eyebrows, "As far as I know, there are nearly three thousand chess players attracted by each cocktail party. These 3,000 chess players all choose their opponents by drawing lots and play games. The preliminary round of preliminaries, through ten rounds of round-robin duels, will screen out the players with the highest scores, and 800 players will be promoted. ”

"Brother Yi, I really don't understand. Su Fu frowned, "Since you have such strong strength, is it necessary to use this method to advance to the preliminaries?"

"No......" Yi Xiao shook her head, "You think of our opponent too simply. It's not that you can't rely on your own strength to make it to the preliminaries, but in this way, you can minimize the 'danger factor'. ”

"The next step is to stumble on that very strong chess player. Yi Xiao exhaled, "You must have heard her name." The disciple of the South China Sea Flower Saint, Tao Wuwu, who is known as the Little Chess Saint. ”

Su Dashao was really familiar with this name, and he suddenly realized, "She came to the Central Plains?"

"Not bad. Yi Xiao's face was gloomy, "As far as I know, she is the owner of the 'Mind Reading Phase', but I don't know what step she can do yet." If you can get to the point of 'temporarily controlling my heart and making me shout abstaining'...... Naturally, there is no need to play this chess. ”

"Since the 'extremely strong chess player' you mentioned is hers. Su Fu groaned, "Then this arrangement is really not too much." Even if she can't do that, once she reads her heart when you play, it will be difficult to win her in the future. ”

But it turned out that these two were overthinking. Because...... Gongzi Xiaotao is an extremely proud person in terms of chess, and it is not an exaggeration to say that there is no one in his eyes. During the entire reception, most of the victories were achieved with almost no use of mind-reading.

"The subsequent rematch is to take the black and white chess pieces from the 'Lingxiao Wine'. Yi Xiao smiled and said, "In this round, you can just rely on your soul power to grab the chess pieces, and you don't have to worry about any accidents." Yi Xiao said this, not blind confidence. After all, his soul power and Gongzi Xiaotao have been recognized by the mountain lord together, so naturally there will be no accidents in the rematch.

"After that, the arrangements for the finals will only be made after I have read the information of those players. Yi Xiao added, "I will use the Lotus Aspect to line up all the players who may pose a threat to her in her line. Try to consume her 'essence', 'qi', and 'spirit' as much as possible. ”

"Not bad......" Su Fu smiled, "Although you have made so many preparations, I still think that your chances of winning are still not very good." ”

Yi Xiao touched his nose, indeed, when he was studying chess games in Qiliang Library, he had seen the chess games played by Gongzi Xiaotao. At that time, the son Xiao Tao was less than ten years old, and he played against a great chess player who had won the wine king. The whole battle was firmly dominated by her, and even though the big chess master defended half of the country, he still lost the game by a slight disadvantage in the end.

It can be said that without relying on "mind reading", Gongzi Xiaotao is already a chess player standing at the pinnacle of the chess world, not to mention that now after so many years, how strong is her strength?

Childe Xiaotao's strength on the chess scale can only be described as "unfathomable". Therefore, Yi Xiao's current actions in the game, whether it is despicable or conservative, can only be said to be an excessive normal measure.

After all...... If he loses the game, Yi Xiao has no hope of getting the "Mending Heaven Pill", which is a matter of life and fortune, so he has to be cautious.

Su Fu coughed dryly, "Brother Yi." I'm more curious than what you just said, even though I secretly practice martial arts...... At present, there is already an eight-rank realm, but the sword club is as good as a cloud, if you want to get the top ten, I'm afraid it's not easy......"

"Simple! Why isn't it simple?" Yi Xiao said with a smile, "No matter how fast the Great World comes, it is impossible for Ten Nine Rank Masters to come out of Fengting City to participate in the Sword Drinking Party. If you are not a Jiupin master, you will not be your opponent when the sword wine meeting is fought. After speaking, he hooked his hand and motioned to Su Dashao to stick his head over.

There was a whisper.

Su Fu narrowed his eyes, cold sweat oozed slightly from his forehead, and the gaze of the black-clothed young man in front of him was a little elusive.

Yi Xiao smiled, "Su Dashao, there's no need to look at me like this, right?"

Su Fu laughed, looked at Song Zhiqing's gaze and became a little awe-inspiring, and arched his hand very politely, "Brother Song is righteous and thin, Su admires and admires ......"

Actually...... today Song Zhiqing was pulled by Yi Xiao to pretend to be a field, to put it bluntly, he was greedy for Yi Xiao's ten taels of silver. However, at this moment, he seemed to feel that some kind of crisis was coming, and he looked at Yi Xiaoxiao's smiling eyes, and the corners of his mouth twitched slightly, "I warn you......"

"Peace of mind. As long as you run fast enough, there will be no life-threatening ......" Yi Xiao said in a comforting tone for the child, "You should prepare for the next few days, after all, you can't outrun them, and the possibility of being split by five horses is relatively high......"

"Wait a minute! What are you talking about!" Song Zhiqing was really sure now, this little highness's belly was far darker than he imagined, and he couldn't help but say angrily, "What the hell are you going to do! Why is there still the danger of being divided by the 'five horses'!"

However, the answer to this question, which he has received so far, is this.

"Because you're Song Zhiqing...... After all, you're going to smash the sword and drink party, and the things that attract hatred are the most suitable for you to do......"
