Chapter 41: The First Acquaintance with the Art of Array
"Well, this is for you, so it's easy to hide something. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć Info" Professor Xin suddenly handed over a dusty bag.
Chen Xiao looked up, his eyes couldn't help but light up, and he shouted in surprise: "Qiankun sleeve bag, good thing, but ...... It's too expensive for me to want. ā
But Chen Xiao's refusal was obviously ineffective, and after being glared at fiercely by Professor Xin, he was still forced into his hand.
Looking at Professor Xin's expression, it seemed to say, you taught my daughter so well, what's the fuss about giving you this little thing.
But to be honest, Chen Xiao himself is not very satisfied with the effect of the make-up class in the past month or so, just because Chen Xiao has done his best.
However, the progress of the 'drug resistance' causal task is still less than three-tenths of the way forward, and it is still far from being completed, and I am afraid that it will really take a few more visits to the Xin family.
After taking the Qiankun sleeve and carefully attaching it to the sleeve, Chen Xiao got rid of distracting thoughts, continued to look at the book in his hand seriously, and began to carefully understand what the rules of the fairy network depicted in the book looked like.
And the Void Breaking Magic Boat that Chen Xiao was riding was also quietly, covered with a layer of green light, and then broke through the air with a 'buzz', and under the blazing blue light, he instantly escaped into the void sky.
The Void Heaven is a vast and illusory interface, almost boundless, but there is no trace of life in sight.
If it weren't for the powerful formation protection of the Void Breaking Boat, if the monks below the True Immortal Realm dared to trespass into the Taixu Heaven, it would be a ruin to be wiped out.
However, with the protection of the Void Breaking Magic Boat, the whole trip seemed to be very stable, so after about a day, the Void Breaking Magic Boat also quietly returned to the normal interface again, and came to the first realm of the mortal world-Lingxiao Realm.
If you compare the mortal world to the Tang Dynasty in the previous life, the Lingxiao realm is like Chang'an, and the center of politics, economy, culture, etc., which you can imagine, is located in this interface.
Large organizations such as the Array Talisman Alliance, the Alchemist Alliance, and the Alchemist Alliance, which are extremely well-known in the outside world, are all headquartered in the Lingxiao Realm.
In this way, it is not so surprising that Lingxiao University, as the most well-known university in the Lingxiao world, is called the first school in the world.
At this time, Chen Xiao had successfully arrived in Huaxu City, Fuxi Province, the boundary of Lingxiao Realm, and entered a single-family villa prepared by Lingxiao University for Professor Xin.
Although this villa is not as luxurious as the one in Mingyue Lake City in terms of decoration design, the area is even larger than that one, and it is as brilliant as a small palace.
After a brief break, Chen Xiao and Professor Xin got together again, and now there is still nearly a week before Chen Xiao starts school.
The first thing to bear the brunt of is naturally to meet Sun Daogu, followed by the entrance exam.
After discussing with Professor Xin, Chen Xiao decided to set out tomorrow to meet with Sun Lao Wei first and explore the tone of this old monster, and then arrange the negotiation.
After discussing it, Professor Xin used the spirit rune to contact Sun Laowei and agreed on the time of meeting, after which Chen Xiao and Professor Xin went to rest separately, and left for Sun Daogu's private house the next morning.
This Sun Daogu is worthy of being an old monster who has lived for more than a thousand years, and the accumulation of wealth is really not comparable to those of their juniors, just this private mansion is luxurious and speechless.
I saw that in this house, rockeries and flowing water, pavilions and pavilions, buildings near and far, there is no end in sight.
If Professor Xin's villa is a small palace, then Sun Laowei's private mansion can really be compared to the palace.
Along the way, the two were led by the housekeeper, crossing the rockery and flowing water, one step at a time, which was simply beautiful.
It took a long stick of incense before the two were finally brought to a water pavilion.
The butler carefully opened a curtain of beads, and before he could make a move, he was frightened by a rough roar and froze in place.
"The old man hasn't finished this game of chess, and no one is allowed to come in, do you hear?"
It is no wonder that the butler froze there, although the old man's voice was rude like that of the mountain villager, but there was a terrifying power in his voice.
Not only the housekeeper, but also Chen Xiao felt as if a huge mountain was pressing on him, making it difficult for people to breathe for a while.
Only then did Chen Xiao know that the old monster-level bigwigs were so terrifying, it seemed that the few people he had met before were too gentle.
"Old ghost Han, there is nothing to be ashamed of if your skills are not as good as others, why bother to embarrass a few juniors!" Seeing the painful expressions of the three people outside the water pavilion, Sun Daogu spoke out to relieve the siege.
"Old Ghost Sun, who do you say is not as good as others, I ...... I just haven't figured out what to do for a while?" Old Han shouted angrily.
But this time, the deterrent force disappeared, which made the three of them breathe a sigh of relief.
The housekeeper took this opportunity and was about to put down the bead curtain, but he didn't want Chen Xiao to suddenly speak: "Senior Han, there may be some gains in the next position." ā
At this time, the huge chessboard in the Water Pavilion was located right in the center, and Sun Laowei and Han Laowei were on both sides of the chessboard, so although Chen Xiao couldn't see people, he could see the scene on the chessboard.
To be honest, Chen Xiao didn't know what kind of chess these two people played, but looking at the criss-cross distribution pattern on the chessboard, as well as the black and white chess pieces, it seemed to be a bit like Go in his previous life.
However, this board has 32 vertical and horizontal paths, with a total of 1024 intersections, which is far more complex than the Go board.
Moreover, every chess piece on this chessboard, whether black or white, contains a prohibition, which is linked to each other and can be compounded into a formation, and the more chess pieces, the more complex the formation becomes.
At this time, the chess pieces on the chessboard of the two have reached a stalemate, but from the perspective of the situation, Han Laowei's weakness is already very obvious, and it is very likely that he will lose the whole game if he is not careful, which is also the reason why he is extremely hesitant.
The reason why Chen Xiao reminded Han Laowei to get off the Xun position was to see that although the chess array laid out by Han Laowei seemed to be complex and mottled, it was still a gossip on the whole.
And the Xun position in the southeast was seen by Chen Xiao at a glance, and it should be the only way for Han Lao Wei to survive at this time.
Speaking of Han Laowei, this chess skill is indeed inferior to Sun Laowei, but he is not a fool, after Chen Xiao's reminder, there is no reason not to see the situation.
At this time, there was a strange cry of excitement, and he grabbed a chess piece in the chess furnace and placed it on a point in the Xun position, which brought the chess array back to life.
"Alas, a true gentleman who is silent when watching chess, Xiaoyou, you are reckless!" said Sun Laowei with a sigh.
"Senior, I just watched it on a whim, but I didn't expect this to come out of my mouth, I hope you forgive me!" Chen Xiao said apologetically.
"Haha, don't listen to Old Ghost Sun chewing words there, Xiaoyou, you have done me a lot of help this time, let the old man take a good look at you. ā
As he spoke, Chen Xiao felt a breeze blowing up, and in a trance, he had entered the water pavilion, and he saw an old man with a blue face and white beard laughing there regardless of his image.
"Old Ghost Sun, I am willing to lose the bet, hurry up and hand over the things!" Old Monster Han suddenly looked at Old Monster Sun.
This caused the solemn-looking Sun Laowei on the opposite side to twitch his face, obviously quite heartbroken about what he was about to take out, but he still had to slowly pull out a jade box from his sleeve and hand it over to Han Laowei.
Sun Lao Wei opened the jade box and looked at it, and couldn't help laughing, only to see that inside the jade box, a cyan beard grass that was more than three feet long scattered a faint light, and he knew that it was extraordinary at a glance.
"Little friend, do you know what this is?" Han Lao Wei seemed to be deliberately angry with Sun Lao Wei, and he actually asked Chen Xiao about the origin of this spirit grass without opening any pot.
Chen Xiao couldn't help but smile bitterly in his heart, but he had to cooperate and replied: "Forgive the younger generation for being lonely and unheard, and ask the senior to tell me?"
"This is the Qingxia grass produced in the Three Immortal Islands of the Heavenly Basking Realm, the wheel has been in good condition for more than 2,000 years, and it is a necessary thing for refining the Divine Pill, Xiaoyou, the old man will not treat you badly. Old Han laughed and patted Chen Xiao's shoulder.
"But ......" Old Monster Han suddenly glanced at Chen Xiao again, "Xiaoyou, your cultivation is a little low, I'm afraid you won't be able to bear the Cultivation Pill, so I'll fold your share of the Cultivation Pill into a hundred bottles of Hanxiang Pill, how about it?"
"Han Xiangdan?100 bottles?"
Chen Xiao's heart was first shocked, and then there was a burst of surprise, this Han Xiang Dan is a well-known elixir in the foundation building period.
In terms of the improvement effect of cultivation, it can be ranked in the top three among nearly 100 kinds of foundation building stage elixirs, which is quite rare.
This old monster Han shot a hundred bottles, which is really a big deal!
"This ...... Thank you seniors for your gifts!" Chen Xiao felt that it was really difficult for him to refuse, and he even had a feeling of being hit by a pie falling from the sky in his heart.
But Sun Lao Wei glanced at his mouth, this old ghost Han really can't change his stinginess, what kind of elixir is the Nourishing Divine Pill, it is the supreme elixir that enhances the Yuan Shen in the merger period.
Just Han Xiangdan, don't say it's a hundred bottles, it's 10,000 bottles, and Sun Lao Monster won't change it.
But Sun Lao Wei obviously wouldn't provoke that Han Lao Wei to be angry because of a junior, so he just smiled slightly at this time and said, "Xiaoyou, I didn't expect you to be young and actually understand this Yi Array technique." ā
"Uh...... To be honest, in fact, this chess ...... It's also the first time I've seen it. Chen Xiao explained a little embarrassed.
"What, the first time I saw you?" Old Monster Sun's surprised eyes almost didn't fall out.
The first time you saw it, you actually broke the old man's overall situation, could it be that the old man has played chess on the dog all these years.
Even Han Laowei, who won the chess, couldn't help shaking his head, and he didn't believe that he could defeat Sun Laowei, a master of Yizhen in the Lingxiao realm, for the first time, which was probably a bit unrealistic.
Next, the eyes of the two suddenly fell on Professor Xin, who had just walked in, and the meaning of exploration was very obvious.
"Senior Sun, Senior Han, Chen Xiao's words are probably the truth, he is from the Mingzun Realm, and he really doesn't know much about the Yijing Technique that has just emerged in the Lingxiao Realm and several other interfaces!" Professor Xin explained with a wry smile.
I can't help but have a headache in my heart, this little guy is really too genius, and he can cause a storm anywhere, which is really worry-free.
