Soon after Mrs. Luo's visit, there was an incident that came very suddenly, and even caught Xu Beiyou off guard. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

The Southern Ghost Emperor is dead, and he dies silently.

The battle of the Daomen of the imperial court has been hidden under the table, although only the Southern Ghost Emperor who was involved on the table and finally died was the ninth Southern Ghost Emperor of the Demon Suppression Palace, but in fact, this great storm from Jiangnan affected many people, and even the Emperor Xudu had to go to Jiangnan in person, what is the inside truth, people at the level of Xu Beiyou are naturally not clear, but the death of the Southern Ghost Emperor is undoubted, because this news was told by Xiao Zhinan to Xu Beiyou personally.

Xu Beiyou was a little inexplicably embarrassed, in his opinion, no matter what the position of both sides, the Southern Ghost Emperor was a big man, a real realm of the Earth Immortal Six-fold Building, the title of the Daomen Dazhenren, the identity of the archdeacon who held the real power, and he was so complacent when he was in the Great Bao'en Temple not long ago.

But it's such a big man, he says he dies.

even died quietly, like an ant that was trampled to death, without causing the slightest wave.

Decades of cultivation, decades of climbing, and decades of bitterness have all gone down the drain. What secret magic weapons, what status, what immortal path, all have been empty.

The whole thing is like a lame joke.

Xiao Zhinan lobbied Xu Bei about the whole turmoil, in her words, it was a game of chess, and the court took the lead without missing any flaws, so the Daomen who lost the first move would naturally make a bad move.

It all started with a monk from Morun Monastery named Tashi Tenzin, who came from the steppe.

This alone is enough for the imperial court to take the lead.

There is a saying on the chessboard that the abandoned son is to abandon one, two or even dozens of sons in exchange for the external momentum, and it also refers to the way of giving up the remnants and not taking, and competing to be the first to throw elsewhere. No matter how important and precious the chess pieces are, as long as they are on the chessboard, there is the possibility of being used as an abandoned son by the chess player.

As for the deeper truth, Xiao Zhinan didn't say much, Xu Beiyou didn't ask much, he didn't reach that level, it was useless to know too much, originally he still wanted to wait until he cultivated to Dacheng and then go to the Southern Ghost Emperor to take revenge, but now he can't do it, it is really impermanent.

The next day, it was the end of May, and Xiao Zhinan and Xu Beiyou met again in the Huxin Pavilion.

Today's Xiao Zhinan has changed her dress, she is still the color of the country, and it still makes Xu Beiyou feel uneasy for a moment, but the dignified elegance on her body that seems to have been carved into her bones makes it difficult for Xu Beiyou to have any thoughts.

Xiao Zhinan's expression was a little solemn, and he whispered a few words, "I'm leaving." ”

Xu Beiyou's body stiffened suddenly.

Although it was something that had been expected for a long time, hearing Xiao Zhinan say it in person, Xu Beiyou's heart was still a little complicated and unspeakable.

Xiao Zhinan showed a shallow smile when he saw this scene, and smiled very sincerely. Because Xu Beiyou's reaction showed that he did take her to heart, Her Royal Highness the princess, who should have been innocent about this, somehow had some little girl's joy, just like the sense of accomplishment when he copied his father's handwriting for the first time when he was a child.

Xiao Zhinan paused for a while, not only to let Xu Beiyou have a time to ease his emotions, but also to let himself consider his words a little, and when Xu Beiyou calmed down, she said softly: "The matter in Jiangnan is over, Zhang Daban is going back to Beijing to resume his life, I will go with him, and I will leave tomorrow." After returning to the imperial capital, I am not too sure how the situation will change, so I can only do my best and drag it out for a while. ”

Xu Beiyou listened to Xiao Zhinan's words, lowered his head slightly, and couldn't see his expression clearly.

Xu Bei couldn't tell what kind of feelings he had for Xiao Zhinan, if he was just for the identity of the princess and the appearance of Allure, then Xiao Zhinan would never be so blue-eyed to him, and he wouldn't even look at him more. But if there is an unforgettable unforgettable relationship between the two, Xu Beiyou himself will not believe it.

Feelings and interests are intertwined, like two vines that are intertwined with each other, inseparable and constantly chopping.

If Xu Beiyou didn't choose to walk out of Danxia Village, then maybe Gongsun Zhongmou would be disappointed in him, and maybe he wouldn't see Xiao Zhinan again.

The most direct reason for Xu Beiyou's determination to get out of Danxia Village was Xiao Zhinan's parting words. At that time, she told Xu Beiyou not to stay in this small place for the rest of her life, if she had the opportunity, she still had to go out and see the vast world outside. So Xu Beiyou resolutely walked out of Danxia Village alone, so there is today.

Today's Xu Beiyou is still not qualified to make any promises to Xiao Zhinan, Xiao Zhinan is still unattainable for him, but at least now he sees hope, and has the motivation to climb up, he no longer just wants to become a master, nor just to inherit the master's will, he has his own clear desire, such as marrying a princess and going home.

This thought has quietly taken root in his heart and become a corner of his heart.

Now, Xiao Zhinan is leaving, the future is uncertain, and Xu Beiyou is even more powerless, so he feels as if he is suddenly missing a corner in his heart, and he is stunned.

After being silent for a long time, Xu Beiyou finally raised his head and said softly: "Ten games of appointment, there are still seven games left, do you want to play a few more games of chess?"

Xiao Zhinan smiled and said a good word.

This time, Xiao Zhinan personally set up the chessboard.

This may be the last three games of chess between the two, Xu Beiyou is inevitably mentally unbalanced, the initial fall of chess was a little trance-like, the first two games are chess to the middle of the game has had to vote for a loss, only the last game, Xu Beiyou really let go of his hands and feet, the fall is extremely slow, with a flash of inspiration that is almost a mistake, but also the tragedy of seeing death as home, it is actually to survive the middle game to the end of the game, there is a lot of momentum to burn with Xiao Zhinan's jade.

It's just a pity that there is too much difference in the chess strength of the two, and the more they reach the official stage, the more obvious it is, if Xu Beiyou's last few moves are an indomitable heavy cavalry charge, then Xiao Zhinan is a more flexible light cavalry, after dodging Xu Beiyou's decisive blow lightly, and then easily slaughtering Xu Beiyou, who couldn't turn back.

After the finale, Xiao Zhinan twisted a slightly cool white jade chess piece with two fingers, and said: "I originally wanted to accompany you to see Zhang Xueyao, but now it seems impossible, I will finally send you a few more clichés about not wanting money." Looking at the past and present, the peaceful and prosperous world can not produce heroes, let alone heroes, if you want to be a hero, pay attention to a person who rises up while the chaos, and if you want to be a hero, you must take advantage of the situation. If you just want to be a master, then it is enough to be a hero, but if you want to revive the Sword Sect, then you must go on the road of hero. ”

Xiao Zhinan put the chess pieces in his hand into the chess box and said softly: "If you want to be a hero, you must be a hero first." In today's Jiangnan, there is Murong Xuanyin, a strong dragon with bad intentions who crossed the river, and there is an undercurrent of Daomen and the imperial court, the chaos is definitely chaotic enough, if you can find a broad road from this chaos, then even if you are in the north of the gods, it is also a pivotal big man, but to be honest, I don't have this realm, and no one has it if you look at the entire Jiangdu. ”

Xiao Zhinan took a deep look at Xu Beiyou and said, "It's just that I hope you can have this kind of realm in the future and don't let me down." ”

Xu Beiyou, who was sitting opposite Xiao Zhinan, smiled and did not speak.

Men's promises, sometimes it's quite boring to think about, needless to say what can be done, and what can't be said is in vain.

Although some women would believe it, Xiao Zhinan was obviously not such a woman, she didn't force it, and got up and left gently.

Xu Beiyou stared at the chessboard and took a deep breath.

In the ten-game appointment, he has lost six games, which is expected and reasonable.

There are still four sets left, and he hopes that there is still a chance to finish them, preferably, to win one set.

Xu Beiyou lowered his head and began to clean up the mess.

On the first day of the sixth month, Xiao Zhinan, Zhang Baisui, Moshu, and their entourage left Jiangnan and embarked on the journey back to the imperial capital.

Xiao Yuanying hasn't shown up in the past few days, and I don't know where she went.

In the huge Xie Garden, only Xu Beiyou and Zhang Wuxi, who don't know how long they will stay, are left.
