Volume 2 The Sword and the Wine Chapter 41 Seventeen Chess Through the Ages
The schedule of the Wind Court City Sword Cocktail Party was not loose, and it was even a little tight.
Day after day, the first round of the sword meeting ended, followed by the second round of the drinking party and the sword meeting at the same time.
What is different from the sword party is that the drinking party is only divided into three rounds.
Due to the sword competition in the ring, the 800 swordsmen, and considering the recovery of vitality and other issues, the sword meeting had to be divided into tedious and boring days.
As soon as Su Dashao was in the morning, he howled excitedly and went out with his sword.
Song Da knife scabbard changed his outfit, didn't dare to wear the green clothes anymore, changed into a big flower shirt, and secretly went to Tianxiang Gambling House to bet, saying that it was a small gambling pleasure, and he wanted to make a fortune by relying on his Taoism.
Yi Xiao looked at the little girl in her room, quite helpless.
Mingzhu licked the syrup that Su Da Dan Sheng's bought, opened her big eyes, pulled the hem of Yi Xiao's sleeves, and said pitifully.
"Big brother, Master, he went out early in the morning. Now that everyone is gone, you won't be going to leave too, will you?"
Yi Xiao couldn't cry or laugh a little, Senior Su said today that he was going to go to the Sword House, and he couldn't spare time to take care of Mingzhu'er. The unreliable personalities of Su Dashao and Song Da Sheath are indeed not suitable for taking care of Mingzhu'er. After thinking about it, he finally entrusted Mingzhuer to himself.
"If only Mingzhu was missing a hair. The old man came back and demolished your Qi Liang's medicine hall. ”
Yi Xiao thought about the gloomy words of Senior Su before he took him away, and was a little helpless, and saw Mingzhu'er's ignorant big eyes again, sighed at the moment, and comforted in a soft voice, "Big brother will take you to have fun." ”
"Fun?" Mingzhu tilted her head, pursed her lips and smiled, "Big brother is so nice." ”
Yi Xiao smiled and touched Mingzhu'er's head, and subconsciously took Mingzhu'er's little hand.
His pupils shrank slightly, flashing an imperceptible golden yellow, and then returned to normal.
"Is Mingzhu'er a special physique......
The moment he held Mingzhu'er's little hand, it seemed that the bridge between his body and heaven and earth had been built, and even the induction of Yuan Li was clearer.
There is no one in ten thousand with a special physique, thinking about it like this, it is no wonder that the Dansheng seniors want to accept Mingzhu'er as an apprentice, it turns out that this is the reason.
It's just that Yi Xiao didn't think much about it, smiled and took Mingzhu'er, and rushed to the venue of the second round of the cocktail party.
After a short period of effort, Yi Xiao pulled Mingzhu'er and entered the second round of the venue with the token that won the first round of the cocktail party.
In front of each participating chess player, a large altar was placed.
"Big brother, what are we going to do here? Mingzhu'er looked up at Yi Xiao and sniffed her nose with some curiosity, "What kind of smell is this, it's a bit like ...... Wine?"
"Not bad. It's 'Sky Wine'. Yi Xiao said with a smile, "This kind of wine is extremely strong, just a little, it is enough to intoxicate the spirit, if the will is not strong enough, no matter how large the amount of wine, drinking half a glass is enough to get drunk for half a day." ”
"Divine soul?" Mingzhu'er heard this word for the first time, and Yi Xiao patiently explained, "People have three souls and seven spirits, and divine soul is the general term for soul. You are still young, and you will know when you refine the pill in the future. ”
Alchemy requires an incomparably powerful divine soul, and in the refining of the elixir, every link needs to be controlled by powerful soul power, if the divine soul is not strong enough, it will be difficult to refine a truly superior elixir.
The same is true of chess, Wendao nourishes the soul, and many strange people are powerful souls. Qiliang does not exclude strange people, but all real nobles even have a special place to accommodate guests. And one of the best ways to test strange people is the empowerment of Lingxiao wine.
There is no need for anything else, just drink Lingxiao and not get drunk, you can be called a strange person!
Ling Xiao wine is drunk with soul, unless it is the legendary natural Dao fetus, connected with heaven and earth, and the Yuan Li is interconnected, in order to dissolve Ling Xiao wine and wine, if the rest of the people have not cultivated the soul, they will fall as soon as they dip it.
This second round of requirements does not require drinking Lingxiao wine, but just dips the soul into the wine and extracts the "chess pieces".
The huge vertical chessboard was pushed by the chariot, the chessboard was nineteen vertical and horizontal, black and white fell innumerable, staggered and horizontal, the battle was decided, Black was like dragging the sea dragon was born, and White was above the nine heavens, it was a real immortal to kill the dragon.
This game is the first chess game in thousands of years, it is said that it was the chess fairy who came and fell in the past, fought with himself, and came to a "fairy dragon slaying game", the situation was turbulent and shaky, just a glance, it was enough to frighten the layout of the people's chess skills can be regarded as heavenly.
In the chess game, there is the name of the immortal game. It is a game of chess, both sides are first-class chess players in the world, and they play the strongest strength with each other, and they have contacts with each other, and finally the dust settles, and a game can surpass the world and alarm the immortals.
For thousands of years, the immortal game, seventeen chess.
Each case is enough to make future generations have endless aftertaste, open up Xinjiang for the chess road, and point out the way.
There was a loud bang on the ground, and the second chariot was pushed in, and the second game of chess was placed on the nineteen chessboards, during which the black and white confrontation was not as thrilling as the first game, but it was still lingering to catch up with the world, and there was a faint sense of transcendence.
The second game of the immortal game, is a hundred years ago in the beginning of the two leaders of Buddhism and Taoism to talk about a seat, Buddhism and Taoism two doors have a long history, profound heritage, this game is not as thrilling as the first game, but it is a long breath, between the two, in the end, it is Buddhism to break the convention, the final victory.
The third and fourth chariots followed, and the earth burst into the sound of the chessboard crashing against the chariots.
"Boom, boom, boom—"
Yi Xiao squinted, Mingzhu'er's eyes widened a little, and where she looked, there were seventeen big chariots, carrying seventeen huge chessboards, and the crowd of people stretched from the city gate to the venue, all of which were silent.
Seventeen Chess Through the Ages.
It's all here.
"The sword master is so generous, he actually moved the seventeen immortals, forcibly molded the seventeen chessboards, and carved these seventeen immortal games. Yi Xiao muttered, "Apart from me, who else in the world has seen these seventeen immortal bureaus that have never been born?"
Seventeen chess through the ages, it was only Yi Xiao who occasionally heard his teacher Yuan Tiangang mention it, and later looked through the Qiliang treasury, but only found two fragments. At that time, Yi Xiao relied on stalking, so he brought the seventeen immortal games from Yuan Tiangang, so that he could say that he was only watching for one day, and forcibly remembered the seventeen immortal games in his mind, and then he reluctantly returned to the teacher.
"This second round of cocktail party is usually to review the chess game......"
Yi Xiao's breathing was a little short, and he looked at the incomparably familiar seventeen chessboards, and incredible thoughts flashed in his mind.
"Is it now...... The Sword Master wants us to review the Immortal Bureau?"
In the Lingxiao wine prepared by the sword master for the second round, there are so-called "chess pieces", which are not real objects, but the strongest liquor in the Lingxiao wine.
The second round of the reception is often hailed as a watershed moment between the geniuses of chess.
If you want to review the game from beginning to end, you have to start from the beginning, and figure out the bottom of the black and white ends, and each move requires a lot of effort.
It's just that there has never been a sword drinking party, and I would think like this now, and take out seventeen pairs of immortals to ask for a review!
The immortal game, even those national players have only heard of its name, but have not seen the true face, if you want to figure out the immortal bureau, it is so easy to spend your mental effort? Coupled with the difficulty of extracting chess pieces from Ling Xiao wine, this round of drinking party disputes......
Difficult!
The face of the governor of the city lord's mansion was ordinary, and there were seventeen city lord's mansion inspectors sitting on the seventeen big chariots, and everyone looked around, seeing that the hour was almost up, the governor coughed lightly.
The venue, which was already silent, was even quieter.
"In the second round of the reception, those who review the first game will enter the third round. ”
The Governor chuckled softly, and a voice gently exploded in Yi Xiao's ears.
"Lord Sword said that if someone can review all the chess games, it will be a Heaven Replenishing Pill, so what's the matter?"
"Mending Heaven Pill!" Yi Xiao heard this, his eyes burst into bright golden light, and he subconsciously looked at the governor who was wearing a black hat and shrouded in black robes.
The eyes of the two men seemed to collide in the air, and the governor chuckled very slightly.
The crowd was boiling, but Yi Xiao found that the crowd actually turned a deaf ear to the sentence "mending the heavens", but had a strong interest in these seventeen chess games.
"Mingzhu'er, did you hear what the black-robed man said about the Mending Heaven Pill just now?" Yi Xiao frowned, while Mingzhu Blinked, "Mending Heaven Pill...... The black-robed man didn't say anything about it. ”
"Could it be...... Is this a sentence addressed to me?"
Yi Xiao suddenly realized, and then frowned, "These seventeen immortal bureaus are reviewed...... It may be difficult for others to reach the sky, but I have already memorized the original chess game, even if I review the seventeen games, it will not take much time. ”
His gaze swept over one by one until the seventeenth chariot.
In the seventeenth chess chariot, only white pieces fell on the chessboard.
There are no sunspots.
The white seeds are scattered like stars.
This chess is not the seventeenth immortal game in Yi Xiao's mind!
