Chapter 424: Dream Chess Game
"Going to southern Xinjiang?" Lu Zheng couldn't help but ask.
"Go to Southern Xinjiang." Song Kaichuan nodded, "Don't worry too much, little friend. Southern Xinjiang is actually not that dangerous. Not all foreign objects are cannibals or evil cultivators."
"I know this." Lu Zheng said, "I mean, I have only practiced for less than three years and my Taoism is shallow. How can I help?"
"Of course it's not a matter of cultivation, but a chess game in a dream."
"Dream chess game?"
Song Kaichuan nodded, "Every year on the third day of March, the old pine tree will dream of seeing gods and solve the puzzle set by an immortal. It's just that the old pine tree has been trying to solve the problem for two thousand years, but it has never been solved."
"Teaching the Dharma in a dream?" Lu Zheng's eyes couldn't help but freeze, and then he was startled, "Two thousand years?"
It took him two thousand years to solve chess alone. What kind of skills does this great demon who turned into a spirit from a pine tree have?
"Oh? My little friend, you also know about immortals entering dreams to teach the Dharma?" Song Kaichuan was a little surprised, and then nodded in understanding, "That saves me the time to explain."
Lu Zheng nodded, "I know a little bit. It is said that the core inheritance of many major sects are passed down by gods from the upper world who came to dream or reincarnated with spiritual thoughts."
"Yes, Old Songshu got a chance, but it's not a chance." Song Kaichuan laughed and said, "If he can't solve this chess game, then the gods will not teach him the secret."
"I see."
"I have a close relationship with Lao Songshu, so I have always wanted to help him solve the problem. However, my talent is limited and it is difficult to help him," Song Kaichuan said.
Then looking at Lu Zheng, Song Kaichuan continued, "Playing chess is the most talented thing. I am only thirty years old, but my chess skills surpass those of me who have spent hundreds of years studying. I am really respectable and admirable. I wonder if I can please condescend to you."
, go to southern Xinjiang to try the endgame?"
Song Kaichuan said with some expectation, "Don't worry, little friend, Old Songshu has an indifferent temperament. He has also taught the cultivation method to those who are destined to be together. He is not the kind of demon that sucks blood and eats people."
"in addition……"
"Senior, there is no need to say anymore, when shall we set off?" Lu Zheng nodded and asked.
Are you kidding? A thousand-year-old monster is at the pass. If I can help him pass, how much luck will it be?
Lu Zhengzheng was worried that he had not received any money in the past two months, and his inventory was getting less and less. Isn't this business coming again? This order should be enough to support him for half a year, right?
Go! Of course!
Song Kaichuan laughed with joy, "My dear friend, your quick words are very agreeable to my liking. Don't worry, no matter whether this matter succeeds or not, Lao Songshu and I will give you generous gifts."
"Senior, you're welcome. It's a great kindness for you to teach me your skills. It has saved this junior's life several times. If I am lucky enough to be able to help this time, it will be my honor." Lu Zheng said.
Look, there are also generous gifts, a win-win situation!
Such a generous gift from an old monster is really exciting and exciting!
"This matter is not urgent, and it is not a matter of urgency. I have waited for a thousand years, and I don't care about the past ten or eight years." Song Kaichuan said, "Young friends, you can do your own thing first, and then you can do it when you are free.
Go to that cave to find me, and I will take you to Wansong Mountain in southern Xinjiang."
Lu Zheng's eyes turned and said, "Then let's get ready, junior. After a few days, we will go to the cave to meet the senior."
Think about it, the old pine tree's chess skills must be very high if it can lay an endgame for Song Kaichuan to help him break through, and may not be as good as himself now. And how difficult must it be for such a master to fail to break the endgame after two thousand years?
In this case, Lu Zheng decided to spend some more luck to improve his chess skills to a higher level before going to southern Xinjiang.
If the old pine tree's chess skills are really advanced and he can hone himself further, he might be able to speed up the cooling and improve his chess skills by one level with the light of luck.
This must be stable.
"Okay!" Song Kaichuan nodded, "I will go back first and will be waiting for you at any time."
"You're welcome. Once I have arranged everything here, I will go find my senior."
Song Kaichuan nodded, and then disappeared the next moment.
Lu Zheng blinked and looked at the intact tiles on the ground. For a moment, he couldn't tell how he walked.
Scared!
Standing up, Lu Zheng made a decision immediately.
"Jade seal, improve!"
"Buzz!"
The twenty-five-point light of luck disappeared, and a chessboard appeared in Lu Zheng's mind. The black and white stones were like warring armies. They came and went on the chessboard, criss-crossing each other.
Lu Zheng's chess skills, which had not been improved for a long time, were also beginning to improve at a rapid pace, and the various chess solutions in Lu Zheng's mind also began to increase.
From a high position, looking at the overall situation, there are many tricks and unpredictable changes.
This is the knowledge accumulated over time since Lu Zheng reached the extreme last time and played chess with many people.
For ordinary people, foundation is foundation. No matter how much foundation you have, it may not be able to turn into strength smoothly. It is very likely that you will be stuck at the barrier throughout your life and will not be able to improve.
And the light of luck is good at this, it can turn your foundation into strength at any time.
This is great!
"Done! Just wait a minute, the cooling should be over in about ten days, and we will arrive at our destination in southern Xinjiang."
…
At night, put the pot on the plate.
Lu Zheng told Liu Qingyan about his trip to southern Xinjiang.
"The great demon senior who taught you earth magic is back?" Liu Qingyan asked.
Lu Zheng nodded, "When I go out this time, I estimate that I will have to wait at least until Senior Wan Song passes the third day of March and knows the result before he can come back."
"Wouldn't it take nearly two months?"
"Exactly."
Liu Qingyan reluctantly squeezed into Lu Zheng's arms and asked softly, "When are Lu Lang going to leave?"
"In a few days, we will go to Taohua Village again and set off in three days." Lu Zheng said.
"Lu Lang, take care of yourself all the way. Qingyan is at home, just waiting for Lu Lang to come back."
"Okay, don't worry."
"Lu Lang?"
"Um?"
"Qingyan still wants to..."
…
The next day, Lu Zheng went to Taohua Village to talk about the matter and stayed there for one day and one night.
Returning to modern times, I told my parents that I wanted to retreat and write code, and also told Lin Wan that I wanted to travel far away.
After all, he was traveling with a big demon. Lu Zheng didn't dare to travel across time at will. He had to explain things in modern times first.
…
Three days later, Lu Zheng arranged everything in the two realms, and then walked all the way to the deep mountain cave in the northeast.
"Huh? Senior Song didn't open this cave again?"
Lu Zheng emerged from the valley, looked at the cliff, and found that the entrance to the cave halfway up the cliff was still tightly sealed.
"I thought I wouldn't be staying long, so I didn't open it."
A dull voice sounded, and Song Kaichuan suddenly appeared next to Lu Zheng and looked at Lu Zheng, "Are you ready?"
Lu Zheng nodded, "Ready."
Song Kaichuan stroked his beard and smiled, then stretched out his hand to hold Lu Zheng's shoulder.
The next moment, Lu Zheng felt a sudden darkness in front of his eyes...
