Liang Yan murmured to himself, then showed a smile, "Chief Mu is so leisurely and elegant, it is rare to create such a gameplay!"
"Haha, old man Xian Yun Yehe, I leave most of the village affairs to Yi Yin. I usually just play chess, go fishing, and play with puppets."
When Mu Chunhua said this, he stroked his beard and sighed: "It's a pity that it's hard to find a good friend. Those people in the village have long stopped talking to me. I met my little friend today and I would like to learn from each other."
"Since Patriarch Mu kindly invites me, Liang will also accompany me for a game. I would like to ask Patriarch Mu to teach me how to play this 'National Destruction Chess'."
"Simple, the seven kingdoms are in chaos and entering the world. They have different ways of playing and they do not belong to any one country."
"Then what's the difference between 'vertical' and 'horizontal'?"
"Wherever 'Zongheng' goes, he can turn the surrounding puppets into his own chess pieces. The difference is: 'Zongheng' can strengthen the combat capabilities of the surrounding puppets, while 'Horizontal' can lobby the puppets of other countries to become his allies.
, the 'vertical' has limited movement ability and can travel three grids a day, while the 'horizontal' is good at running and can move ten grids a day."
Mu Chunhua explained the detailed rules of "National Destruction Chess" to Liang Yan. Although the rules were extremely complicated, both of them were cultivators. They only had to listen to it once and their spiritual consciousness had already been firmly memorized.
"That's it. This 'National Destruction Chess' imitates the secular struggle for hegemony in troubled times, but it's not that interesting at all." Liang Yan nodded slightly.
"Haha, the chess of national destruction is not groundless. I have consulted the literature of the clan. When the world first opened, there were mostly mortals in the world. There really was such a history of nations competing for hegemony. Later, the masters preached, and most of the people in the world began to practice. After experiencing
It took tens of thousands of years of evolution to create the Langhuan Continent today."
Mu Chunhua casually talked about the past, but it caught Liang Yan's attention.
The monks on Langhuan Continent do not know that the place they live in is a small world, but there are more or less documents that have been handed down here, recording the origin of the continent.
Documents like this might help him understand the origins of this continent.
Just as Liang Yan was thinking secretly, Mu Chunhua spoke again, interrupting his thoughts.
"Liang Xiaoyou, you already know the rules, let's start choosing a child."
"good."
Liang Yan retracted his thoughts, glanced at the old man opposite, and asked, "Who goes first, you or me?"
"Well," Mu Chunhua pondered for a moment, then glanced at a nearby peach tree.
"Let's guess how many leaves there are on this tree. The one who guesses correctly will choose first."
"Okay, I guess there's only one leaf on the tree!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Liang Yan raised his hand and punched. A strong force surged out, blowing a strong wind in the forest, causing the leaves on the peach trees to fall continuously.
"hehe."
Mu Chunhua twirled his beard and smiled, and gently flapped his left hand hidden in his sleeve. A soft breeze blew out of his sleeve, and he was near the peach tree in an instant.
Two forces intersect, one is fierce and domineering, the other is gentle and endless, they are at odds with each other, and an ordinary peach tree has become a battlefield for the two.
Liang Yan used the magical power in "Eight Parts of Yanyuan". Although he was only in the early stage of the Golden Elixir, he was not at a disadvantage against Mu Chunhua who was in the later stage of the Golden Elixir.
The two sides fought secretly for a while, with the strong wind roaring around them. In just a moment, all the leaves on the peach tree had fallen off, leaving only a bare trunk.
"My little friend lost."
Mu Chunhua withdrew his magical power, smiled slightly and said, "My little friend is strong and strong, but not soft and strong. Now there is not a single leaf on this tree."
"That's not necessarily the case!"
Liang Yan also withdrew his magical powers, with a faint smile on his face.
The next moment, he raised his hand and swiped through the air, and he made a hole in the trunk of the peach tree. Mu Chunhua looked at it intently, and saw that there was actually a leaf stuck in the crack in the trunk!
"No more, no less, just one piece. It seems that I chose first and accepted it?" Liang Yan said with a smile.
"You boy, you are really capable!"
When Mu Chunhua saw the leaves hidden in the trunk, his face changed slightly, and then he laughed loudly. "I am willing to admit defeat, please choose first, little friend."
"Just choose 'vertical'."
Liang Yan had already thought about it, raised his hand to cast a spell, and injected his spiritual power into the chess piece with the word "vertical" engraved on it.
"Then the old man has no choice but to choose 'horizontal'."
Mu Chunhua nodded and pulled "Heng" to his side.
After the two of them made their choices, Mu Ying, who was watching the battle, smiled slightly and said crisply:
"The vertical and horizontal divisions have been divided, and troubled times have begun!"
As soon as she finished speaking, she quickly pinched her hands and injected several spiritual powers into the chessboard in front of her. Her movements were very skillful. It was obvious that this was not the first time she had done such a thing.
Although Mu Ying's spiritual power was injected into it, the puppets on the chessboard began to move. The seven countries each sent their troops to fight fiercely for the territory.
The strength of the seven countries is not the same. Some are large in number, some have amazing combat power, and some are easy to defend and difficult to attack depending on the terrain.
But in any case, even a powerful country does not have the strength to annex the other six countries. As the saying goes "if one country is destroyed, other countries will be in danger". Once a strong country attacks a weak country, it will immediately arouse the vigilance of other countries and be jointly besieged.
About half a cup of tea has passed, and the battle situation on the chessboard has become tense. A delicate balance has been formed among the seven countries. Strong countries cannot dominate, and weak countries can also survive in the cracks.
At this moment, Mu Ying's voice sounded again: "The troubled times have begun, please join the Zongheng team!" At this point, she turned to look at Liang Yan and said with a smile: "Those who are in charge of Zongheng will go first!"
Liang Yan nodded slightly.
He has already observed the entire battle situation and is constantly making calculations in his mind.
On the chessboard at this time, the red puppets have the largest number and the widest territory, but the red puppets are too scattered, like a pot of loose sand, without cohesion.
The blue puppet shrank in the open space upstream of the creek. Although the territory is not large, it is very cohesive. It has not lost anything in the fight so far. Moreover, the combat effectiveness of the chess pieces is very strong, and it has almost never been defeated.
But its only weakness is that the geographical environment is not good. Except for the side of the creek, it is surrounded by enemies on three sides, and its strength is not weak. This causes the blue puppet to be passively defensive and difficult to take the initiative to attack.
The puppets of the seven countries each have their own advantages and disadvantages. After thinking about it again and again, Liang Yan turned his attention to the slope to the west.
There is a yellow puppet on the slope. Although it ranks second in number, its individual combat power can only be considered average.
"'Zong' itself has the ability to improve the puppet's strength. If you can control the yellow puppet, then relying on the terrain to advance, attack, retreat and defend, it should be an excellent choice."
Liang Yan just thought about it for a moment, then raised his hand to cast a spell, letting the chess piece with the word "vertical" engraved on it enter the field and go straight to the slope where the yellow puppet was.
After his move, it was Mu Chunhua's turn.
"Little Friendly Plan."
Mu Chunhua praised, narrowed his eyes slightly, Hengzi entered the room, but went straight to the blue puppet.
"Heng" is good at attacking and can form alliances. Although the blue puppet is surrounded by enemies on three sides, it is also an opportunity for "Heng". As long as the lobbying is done properly, the Three Kingdoms Alliance can turn its disadvantage into an advantage.
As "vertical" and "horizontal" join the battle, the situation on the chessboard is also undergoing subtle changes.
While Liang Yan was deducing, he was observing Mu Chunhua in the distance.
This old patriarch is really a bit secretive. Not to mention that he easily resolved his own Vajra power just now, these puppets are not something that ordinary people can make.
But one thing was that the aura of Mu Chunhua made Liang Yan feel strange and unnatural.
Just when he wanted to observe carefully, Mu Chunhua waved his sleeves, and an invisible force blocked his detection.
"Little friend, you have to concentrate when playing chess, otherwise you will lose the game." Mu Chunhua looked at Liang Yan from a distance and said with a half-smile.
Liang Yan narrowed his eyes and returned his attention to the chessboard.
Mu Chunhua's alliance strategy is about to take shape. If the three countries form an alliance, it will be a huge threat to themselves.
After thinking for a moment, Liang Yan raised his hand a little.
Obeying his order, the yellow puppet rushed down the hillside, bypassing the red puppets on the road, and headed straight for the last country to form an alliance with the three countries.
He wants to send an elite army to cut off the connection between the three countries, and at the same time activate the "manipulator" to bypass the three countries, form an alliance with the orange puppet in the distance, attack from both sides, and encircle and suppress the three countries.
Mu Chunhua was good at calculations and saw Liang Yan's plan at a glance. He stroked his beard and calmly mobilized the "horizontal" pieces and began to move around the chessboard to neutralize his opponent's offensive.
The two sides go back and forth, using the power of "vertical" and "horizontal" to stir up the storm of the Seven Kingdoms, either horizontally or vertically, and by arranging troops, they set off a bloody storm on the chessboard.
Every move was carefully calculated by the two of them.
As time goes by, the puppets on the chessboard fall one by one. In the end, three of the seven countries have been destroyed, leaving only four countries. The yellow chess and the blue chess are evenly matched, and the chess game has reached a fierce stage.
Neither Mu Chunhua nor Liang Yan was willing to admit defeat. While trying to figure out their opponent's intentions, they quickly deduced it in their spiritual consciousness.
Suddenly, Liang Yan issued a new order, and the situation on the chessboard changed instantly.
He relaxed his suppression of the red puppets and used retreat to advance, leading the other two countries to target Mu Chunhua's blue puppets.
After using this move, Mu Chunhua's pressure increased sharply, and his face became serious.
His eyes were fixed on the chessboard, and he was silent for a long time. For a moment, he didn't know what to do next.
"Both the left and right are enemies. Chief Mu must surrender." Liang Yan said with a slight smile.
"That's not necessarily the case!"
Mu Chunhua narrowed his eyes and suddenly raised his hand to cast a spell. As spiritual power poured in, the situation on the chessboard suddenly changed.
The blue puppets who were originally trapped in a tight siege suddenly increased their combat power at this moment. As these puppets became more and more courageous, they actually had a tendency to break out of the siege.
"Clan Chief Mu is deceiving?"
Liang Yan's expression changed slightly.
The opponent did not follow the rules of "National Destruction Chess" at all, but used his own magical power to forcibly increase the puppet's combat power, thus changing the situation.
"Haha, soldiers are so cunning! Since we are playing chess, you and I are naturally in the chess game, but I didn't make good use of it." Mu Chunhua stroked his beard and explained forcefully.
"snort!"
Liang Yan snorted coldly, pinched the magic formula in his hand, and injected a spiritual power into the chessboard. The yellow puppet's strength skyrocketed, suppressing the blue puppet again on the scene.
When Mu Chunhua saw this, he was naturally not to be outdone. He pinched the magic formula in his hand, and an endless stream of spiritual power poured into the ground, fighting with Liang Yan's diamond power.
The chess fight between the two sides has now become a competition of spiritual power.
On the surface, everything on the chessboard is normal, but only two of them know that there are already turbulent waves below the chessboard! The two people's spiritual powers come and go, and no one is willing to give in even half a step.
Just when the scene was getting tense, Mu Ying suddenly came behind Mu Chunhua and shouted sweetly:
"grandfather!"
This shout distracted Mu Chunhua's attention and allowed Liang Yan to peek at the flaw. The yellow puppet's combat power surged and it showed great power, quickly destroying the opponent's blue puppet!
"Ouch!"
Mu Chunhua slapped his thigh and stood up from the stone pillar.
Seeing that the situation on the chessboard was over, the old patriarch actually beat his chest and cried loudly on the stone pillar.
"Smelly girl, grandpa, I have a great opportunity and I won't lose at all. Why are you calling me when you have nothing to do?"
Mu Ying was glared at by him, but she was not afraid. Instead, she said with a smile: "Grandpa is not ashamed! He obviously lost a long time ago and still resorted to cheating to save the defeat. If this spreads out, people in the village will not be able to
Making fun of you?"
"you you!"
Mu Chunhua seemed to be angry with her, saying "you" two times in a row, but was speechless.
"Hehe, my good grandpa, don't you always say that victory or defeat is a common thing in military affairs? My little brother has extraordinary understanding and superb chess skills. It's not unfair for you to lose to him!"
After listening to Mu Ying's words, Mu Chunhua gradually regained his composure. He glanced at his precious granddaughter and then at Liang Yan. He seemed to understand something, shook his head and sighed:
"It is said that women cannot be admitted to college. Now I understand. That's all. My whole life of wisdom, Mu Chunhua, has been ruined today."
"Grandpa!" Mu Ying acted coquettishly beside him, pulling Mu Chunhua's sleeve, making the leader of the Stone Spirit Clan dumbfounded.
"Okay, okay, grandpa, I'm not angry."
Mu Chunhua touched Mu Ying's head helplessly, turned to Liang Yan and said, "You have passed my assessment."
"Assessment?" Liang Yan was a little surprised.
"Nonsense, I'm the clan leader! Yi Yin asked you to join the Stone Spirit Clan without my consent, and promised you 70% of the 'five-color soil'. As the clan leader, of course I have to investigate, right?" Mu Chun
Hua rolled her eyes and said.
"I see."
After hearing this, Liang Yan smiled softly, raised his hand to Mu Chunhua and said, "I wonder if Liang's performance today can still gain the eyes of Chief Mu?"
"You're doing well, old man. I'm very satisfied."
Mu Chunhua stroked his beard and said with a smile: "Before, I was worried that you didn't have that strength, but now I am completely relieved. My little friend, come with me to sit in the villa."
Thanks to: Chasing the Wind Wanderer for the 1,500-point reward!
