Chapter 201: Playing Chess
When the two of them heard this, their faces changed drastically, and Xunshuang asked, "Where is it?"
"Thirty miles away in the mountains. Wu Dongfang raised his hand and pointed forward, and after entering the checkpoint, he began to turn, and now he couldn't tell the difference between southeast and northwest.
"What is it?" asked Frost again.
Wu Dongfang closed his eyes and looked at it intently, "One tiger, the other seems to be a cow." β
"Brother Wu, how can there be two?" Xin Tong asked puzzled.
"They don't belong to the same pass, and one of them may have come to visit. Wu Dongfang said with a smile, laughing was for the sake of calming the hearts of the two, in fact, he was very nervous in his heart, the aura cultivation of these two monsters was only higher than the four killed before.
"How to deal with the battle?" asked Frost Hunting.
"According to the five elements, it is inferred that the cow should be the owner of this place, and the tiger is here as a guest. Wu Dongfang thought quickly in his mind, "I'll fight the bull, you fight the tiger, divide into two battle groups, but don't be too far away, you can respond to each other when you start." β
The two nodded solemnly, held the halberd and the whip, and waited intently.
As if facing the enemy, he waited for dozens of seconds, and there was no movement, Xunshuang frowned and looked at Wu Dongfang.
"It's still in place, it's not moving. Wu Dongfang was also confused, the sound of blasting open the stone gate was very loud before, and the pass was closed, even the deaf could hear the movement.
Xin Tong tilted her head to look at Wu Dongfang, different from Xunshuang's doubts, she saw that Wu Dongfang was asking for advice, what should she do next.
"Wait. Wu Dongfang said. He couldn't figure out what kind of medicine was sold in the gourd of these two monsters, and it was not a good idea to act rashly, so he had to wait and see what happened.
While waiting, Wu Dongfang carefully looked at the terrain in this pass, the terrain here is a bit similar to the terrain of the area where the Jin clan is located, the mountains are high and dangerous, the trees are tall, the dense forest is deep, and there seems to be a waterfall with a big drop in the mountains ahead.
The enemy waited for three minutes, and the two breaths remained in place.
The Tomb Protector is tasked with guarding the mausoleum, and if someone enters the level they are guarding, the Tomb Protector should come out to stop it, but the two Tomb Protectors remain motionless, which is against common sense.
Suspicious in his heart, Wu Dongfang concentrated on urging his perception ability to the extreme, and found that the two breaths in the distance were next to each other, and the distance between the two would not exceed three meters, and the two breaths were in a static state, even if they were not stationary, there was no great movement.
At first, he suspected that these two guys were competing for aura, but their aura was very stable and did not fluctuate, which ruled out the possibility that they were fighting, since it was not infighting, why didn't these two guys come to check when they heard the movement.
After pondering, Wu Dongfang raised his hand and made a gesture to the two, "Don't take the stone road, go around and go to the next level." β
The two nodded.
Wu Dongfang stepped on the ground and volleyed, and the two followed.
Sticking to the edge of the periphery for five or six miles, a yellow figure rose from the mountain, reached the air, and shouted at the three people from a distance of more than ten miles, "Who is coming?"
Seeing the opponent appear, Wu Dongfang's heart sank, and he looked closely, only to see that the person shouting was an old man with a round face in yellow, this guy was a cow, with a big nose, and there were still two small horns five or six centimeters long on his head.
Just as Wu Dongfang was quickly thinking about how to answer in his mind, the old man in yellow lowered his head and shouted, "Don't move. β
After shouting, the old man in yellow fell quickly and disappeared into the mountains.
The three of them looked at each other, Xin Tong just wanted to speak, the old man in yellow flew up from the mountain again, and shouted at the three of them again, or "Who is coming?"
After the old man in yellow shouted, he didn't look in the direction where the three people were, but quickly looked down, "Don't play tricks, I remember it clearly." β
"Don't touch my horse. The old man in yellow fell down again.
Xunshuang and Xin Tong looked at Wu Dongfang suspiciously, Wu Dongfang was also confused, there was only the breath of the tiger demon and the bull demon, and he didn't feel the breath of a horse, "This guy is a madman?"
"The eyes are full of light, not like madness. Xunshuang shook his head and said.
"You have seven sons left, how did you become eight?" came the shout of the old man in yellow from the mountain, and at the same time as the shout, the old man in yellow rose into the air again, and it did not move towards the three people, but stayed in the sky, looking down from time to time.
"We are sorcerers from outside the mountain, and we have come to sweep the graves and pay respects. Wu Dongfang didn't wait for the other party to ask again, and shouted loudly.
"Wizard outside the mountain?" the old man in yellow frowned slightly, "Why did you break into the tomb sweeper?"
"It's a long story. Wu Dongfang tried to stall for time.
"Come, come, come, talk. The old man in yellow hurriedly fell.
"They're probably playing the trick. Xin Tong said in a low voice.
"Drama soldiers?" Wu Dongfang had never heard of this word.
"A game derived from the Yellow Emperor, with wood as a soldier, divided into chariots and horses, and fought against each other. Xin Tong said.
"Chess. Wu Dongfang suddenly realized, he always thought that there was a Chu River and Han boundary on the chessboard, indicating that chess appeared in the Qin and Han dynasties, and it turned out that there was already chess as early as the Yellow Emperor period, but the name was different, not called chess, but called Xibing.
"It calls us over, are we going?" Xunshuang raised his right hand and pointed to it.
Wu Dongfang pondered for a moment and made a decision, "Go." β
The two nodded in agreement, Wu Dongfang raised his breath first, and the two followed behind.
The old man in yellow has not appeared again since he fell, Wu Dongfang followed the breath to find the two monsters, it was a cave located on the sunny slope, there was a stone platform outside the cave, the stone platform was painted with horizontal and vertical partitions, on which were placed chess pieces carved from wood, and there was a big tree not far from the stone platform, this big tree was originally shrouded in the stone platform, and it was just knocked down not long ago.
It was undoubtedly the old man in yellow who toppled the tree, and the purpose of toppling the tree was to see in the sky whether the opponent had cheated.
At this time, the old man in yellow was staring intently at the chessboard, sitting opposite it was a tall middle-aged man, this person was wearing a tiger-striped robe, and he also had a round face, but its face obviously had feline characteristics, big eyes, several pairs of horizontal whiskers at the corners of his mouth, and a face that was not angry and arrogant, but it was not looking at the three people at this time, but the chessboard in front of him.
The chessboard between the two monsters is similar to the current chessboard, except that there is no word in the middle of the Chu River Han Realm, and the chess pieces they put are not in the shape of a round cake, but a bit similar to foreign chess, which is three-dimensional.
Wu Dongfang arched his hand at the two, "The two of you are invited, in the Xia Naijin Clan, these two are the Water Clan and the Fire Clan Wizards." β
"What are you doing here?" the tiger demon asked casually.
"First, we came to sweep the tomb to pay respects, and secondly, we wanted to go into the underworld through the sinkhole to find the souls of our ancestors and ask about an old thing. Wu Dongfang said.
"Why did you break in?" the tiger demon asked casually.
"We can't get the artifact to open the door, but we have a token of the Hi family. Wu Dongfang took out a box from Qiankun's bag and walked over and handed it to the tiger demon.
The tiger demon raised his hand to pick it up, and at the moment when it took over the wooden box, Wu Dongfang made a move, and his right hand rushed out, sealing several heavy points on the tiger demon's chest.
Without waiting for the bull demon to react, Wu Dongfang shot again and fixed it on the spot.
Xunshuang and Xin Tong were overjoyed when they saw that Wu Dongfang had frozen the two monsters, and at the same time stepped forward to kill them.
Wu Dongfang grabbed the two of them and waved his hand, "They are not bad people, leave them alive." β
"How do you know how they behave? They are so advanced that they will be able to break through the acupuncture points very quickly. Xunshuang said eagerly.
"The bad guys don't take their guards. Wu Dongfang shook his head and said, then turned his head and raised his hand at the tiger demon and the bull demon, "At this time, the world of the Xi clan has been stolen by traitors, and the descendants of the Yellow Emperor will be killed at any time. β
"Let's go. Wu Dongfang beckoned to Xunshuang and Xin Tong.
"We weren't going to stop you. The tiger demon threw the wooden box with his backhand, they were demigod cultivators, and it was only in an instant that they wanted to break through the acupuncture points closed by the Taixuan Spiritual Qi.
"I'm about to win a big victory, but you've messed up the chess pieces, and you're so ruined. The bull demon glared angrily.
"The two of you are angry, and I have no choice but to make this decision, I don't know why the two of you have no intention of stopping us?" Wu Dongfang put the wooden box back in the Qiankun bag, which contained a bead, not a token.
The bull demon re-arranged, "Do you know how to play chess?"
"Rough talk. Wu Dongfang said.
"Come on, come on, stay with me in the next game, and I'll tell you if I win. The bull demon beckoned to Wu Dongfang.
Wu Dongfang frowned, he had never played chess, he just watched others play, and he was bound to lose.
"They're dead?" the tiger demon got up and left his seat.
Wu Dongfang frowned when he heard this, and Xin Tong on the side replied wrongly, mistakenly thinking that Wu Dongfang asked her to answer on her behalf, and stepped forward to speak, "Who are they talking about?"
"The things you carry with you smell of them. The tiger demon pointed to Xin Tong's left rib, and the fire inner pill was placed on Xin Tong's waist.
Xin Tong looked at Wu Dongfang, Wu Dongfang nodded, signaling that she could tell the truth, and it was not difficult to see from the reactions of the old cow and the tiger that they did not have a good relationship with the four monsters before.
"Don't be stunned, come, fight with me. The bull demon urged again.
Wu Dongfang had no choice but to sit on the opposite side, playing chess with the cow, the chess game is false, the clichΓ© is true, this bull demon is a chess idiot, as long as someone accompanies him to play chess, he will answer all questions, the two of them have no intention of stopping them for two reasons, one is that they have a hostile relationship with the dragon, leopard, wolf and eagle, in today's words, that is, a radical leftist and a conservative right. The second reason is that there is no mausoleum of the Yellow Emperor in the Middle Palace, and the Yellow Emperor returned the law from here back then, but there were no bones left, only clothes and crowns, and no burial goods.
There may be a third reason why the bull demon didn't say it, that is, they knew that the three of them had monsters such as monsters such as monsters on their bodies, and they didn't have any good fruit to eat.
"How can you go like that?"
"What's wrong with horses walking 'day'?"
"There's a pawn here, don't be a horse. β
"Oh. β
"Hey, will you be able to cross the river?"
"Can't you?"
"Of course not. β
"I've seen it through, you can't at all. β
"I didn't cross the river this time. β
"There's a child in the middle, don't look at each other, get out, get out......"
