Just when Chen Xuan was refining his inner strength in the pool.
The other side of the mountain.
In the valley below the cliffs.
An old man staggered forward, walked to a broken wall, opened his mouth slightly, and spoke as if he was not used to it.
"Master, disciple Su Xinghe has come to pay homage."
There was silence in the cliff, but then an invisible strong wind struck.
Su Xinghe felt a chess piece appear in his hand in the blink of an eye.
The mysterious man in the cave on the cliff could throw the chess piece silently, and it landed right in his hand.
The precision of its power and the swiftness of its speed can be described as unpredictable.
He was horrified and hurriedly bowed and saluted.
……………………
The next day came in the blink of an eye.
In the mountain stream, there was only a "bang" of thunder.
In an instant, the water surged and the water splashed like rain.
The patter of water droplets flew and splashed in all directions, as if it was raining heavily in the mountain stream.
Water drops fell on the bluestone of the mountain stream, making a crackling sound.
When the rain and fog dissipated, a man was seen standing in the pool of water.
Scattered water droplets fell from time to time, causing large ripples on the water.
The man did not move at all, standing in the water.
Maybe I've been soaking in this pool of water for too long.
He rushed out of the water so suddenly that his coat fell into the water, leaving only a pair of black trousers on him.
The faint morning light shone on the water droplets on his body, making the muscles on his shoulders, back, waist and abdomen particularly conspicuous.
His figure is not overly strong, but his cheetah-like psoas muscles still reveal his amazing strength.
Before the man could think quietly for a moment, he heard someone shouting from the shore.
"Hey! Mr. Chen!"
"Huh~~~"
Chen Xuan, who was standing on the water, exhaled a breath of turbid air and slowly withdrew his strength.
Ding Chunqiu's nearly fifty or sixty years of skill is still a hard nut to crack for him.
Even if I tried my best to refine and absorb some of it last night, it was only 1% refined at best.
After all, this is the lifelong skill of a top-notch master.
Even if Chen Xuan wants to fully absorb it, it will take at least a few months.
But for him.
As long as you find the secret to absorbing it, spending a few months and gradually absorbing these internal forces can be considered a good result.
The most important thing in life is contentment.
As the saying goes, people's hearts are not as good as snakes swallowing elephants. If they only seek quick results, they will easily fall into trouble.
Chen Xuan calmed down his thoughts and glanced at Dao Baifeng on the shore, waving to him.
He stepped forward and quickly walked up to Dao Baifeng, reached out to caress her cheek, and said softly.
"Feng Nu, have you been waiting here for me all night?"
These words were spoken affectionately, but Dao Baifeng glared at him unconvinced.
"You didn't come out for so long, I thought you drowned at the bottom of the pool."
"Madam, there is no need to worry. I have learned the Turtle Breathing Skill, which allows me to stay underwater for a long time."
"Hmph~"
Dao Baifeng snorted coldly and was about to say a few more words when Chen Xuan suddenly came up to her.
When their eyes met, Dao Baifeng felt his heart pounding, thinking that Chen Xuan would do something.
Unexpectedly, Chen Xuan stared at her for a while and suddenly said.
"Madam, did you really stay here to guard me last night?"
"..."
Dao Baifeng pursed his lips, not wanting to answer.
After a while, he seemed to think of some reason and acted coquettishly.
"Who made you make so much noise while practicing? I thought you were drowned, so I looked at you twice unconsciously."
Although she was arrogant, Chen Xuan was greatly moved and couldn't help but hold her in his arms and whispered softly.
"Good madam, I must thank you very much tonight as my husband."
"Bah! A dog can't spit out ivory from its mouth, and it can't even say a good word."
While the two were chatting, Chen Xuan looked around and found that except for Dao Baifeng, he saw no other girls.
"Where did everyone else go?"
"Go back to the carriage and rest. They don't know you are here."
"Who said that? I think they also need a lesson. One day I will really have to deal with you all together."
Hearing this, Dao Baifeng's face changed slightly, obviously not happy.
Chen Xuan didn't hesitate when he saw this, he just hugged her and jumped up, stepping on the rocks on the cliff and flew up the mountain stream.
Although he made a few jokes with Dao Baifeng, he still had serious business to do today.
Mr. Congbian Su Xinghe has set up a Zhenlong chess game in this mountain. He must hurry up and take a look.
Whether you can get a share of the pie is one thing, but whether you can go or not is another.
Chen Xuan carried Dao Baifeng back to the camp beside the mountain road.
Five carriages were resting on the roadside.
When he came back with Dao Baifeng in his arms, the maid beside the carriage hurried back to report the matter.
"Madam, Madam, Chen Shaoxia is back!"
Hearing this, Li Qingluo hurriedly opened the car curtain and took a look outside.
I didn't want to see Chen Xuan coming back with Dao Baifeng in his arms, and he immediately became jealous.
She just thought that Chen Xuan didn't do well with her last night and turned around to find another woman.
For a moment, I couldn't help but feel secretly resentful in my heart.
"He is indeed a dead dog. One day I will have to destroy that thing of his!"
She was secretly resentful and wanted to keep her temper at bay.
Unexpectedly, Chen Xuan stood next to the carriage and called everyone out personally.
If Su Xinghe sets up a Zhenlong chess game in this mountain, it will attract some martial arts masters.
The previous Xingxu Laoxian Ding Chunqiu is a lesson.
Chen Xuan is going to Zhenlong Chess Game now, so naturally he doesn't dare to leave these girls on the mountain road.
He didn't care about their little emotions and asked them to wear veils as a cover.
As the eldest disciple of Wu Yazi of the Xiaoyao Sect, Su Xinghe's current Zhenlong chess game is quite a gimmick.
Not surprisingly, it will attract many people in the martial arts world.
Gan Baobao and others are already beautiful, but if they don't wear veils, they may cause trouble by some blind men.
Seeing that everyone had packed up, Chen Xuan shouted to them to go into the mountain together.
……………………
After walking for more than an hour, the group entered a valley.
There are pine trees in the valley.
When the mountain wind passes, the sound of pines is as loud as the waves.
Chen Xuan and his party walked for more than a mile in the forest and came to several wooden houses.
I saw two people sitting opposite each other under a big tree in front of the house.
There are three people standing behind the person on the left.
When I got closer, I discovered that there was a big stone between the two people sitting with a chessboard on it, and they were playing chess.
The one on the left is a short, skinny old man.
On the right is a handsome young man.
Wang Yuyan, who was behind Chen Xuan, suddenly said in shock.
"cousin?!"
Li Qingluo also paused, obviously a little surprised.
Chen Xuan had never met Murong Fu.
At first glance, I felt that Murong Fu was extremely handsome and had a handsome temperament. He was truly a talented person.
The three people standing behind him should be the three retainers of the Murong family.
Among them, the package is different, and the storm is prominently among them.
I don’t know who the other one is, but it should be Deng Baichuan or Gongsun Qian.
Wang Yuyan cared about her cousin and ignored Chen Xuan's previous threats to her, so she hurriedly stepped forward to shout.
Chen Xuan didn't want to but grabbed her.
Wang Yuyan was immediately anxious.
"Are you so afraid of my cousin?"
"I'm afraid of him? I'm afraid that you might yell and scare your good cousin to death. Don't make trouble with me then."
"What nonsense are you talking about? How could my cousin be frightened by just one word from me?"
Wang Yuyan was still waiting to say more, but Li Qingluo on the side persuaded her.
"Yu Yan, please stop making trouble and take a closer look."
When Wang Yuyan heard this, she noticed that the two people playing chess seemed to have been motionless.
Even the three people watching the battle, Bao Bubu, stood still.
Everyone was staring at the chessboard, but no one made a move.
Wang Yuyan was also curious and wanted to get closer and take a closer look, but Chen Xuan pulled her back again.
"Don't be fascinated by it, this chess game is not simple."
"Hmph!" Wang Yuyan couldn't help but lose her temper after being stopped by Chen Xuan several times.
It was okay if she didn't show off her face, but now she really made Chen Xuan anxious.
Chen Xuan originally felt a little guilty when he saw that the eldest son of the Murong family was handsome and handsome.
After all, even he himself had to admit that Wang Yuyan and Murong Fu were indeed a good match for each other.
Now that he was so sensed of crisis, he simply pretended to lose his temper, hugging Wang Yuyan directly in his arms, and started to cause trouble without any explanation.
No matter how willing Wang Yuyan was, she just greeted Chen Xuan with a pink fist.
Chen Xuan sneered in her ear.
"Miss Yuyan, feel free to flutter, but it's best to let your good cousin see you fluttering in my arms, Mr. Chen."
"..."
When Wang Yuyan heard this, she immediately stopped making trouble.
The girls didn't know how powerful this Zhenlong chess game was.
Chen Xuan knew the chess game a long time ago. Entering the game is like observing the mind, and every piece is like a pawn.
If two people play chess accidentally and get into the game, they will be in a daze at best, and even vomit blood directly at worst.
I saw that the chessboard was carved on a large bluestone, and the black and white chess pieces were all shining brightly, looking like jade but not jade, and looking like gold but not gold.
Each side has bet more than a hundred pieces.
That short old man must be Su Xinghe, Wuyazi's eldest disciple.
He took the next step first with a black chip in hand.
Murong Fu, on the other hand, held a white coin in his hand and pondered for a long time, motionless.
"Zhenlong" is the end game of Go.
It refers to an endgame that one person deliberately sets up to embarrass others, not a formation created by two people playing chess.
It contains the calamity of life and death, which is often extremely difficult to calculate.
Normally, "Zhenlong" can have as few as ten pieces, or as many as forty or fifty pieces, but the chess game in front of Su Xinghe has more than two hundred pieces!
Moreover, this game of chess is almost over, with almost no changes.
Chen Xuan naturally knew nothing about Go, so he didn't feel anything about it.
Most of the rest of Gan Baobao, Qin Hongmian, Dao Baifeng and others are from daughter's families in Wuliang Mountain, and are no more wealthy than those in Jiangnan.
When it comes to swords, guns, swords and halberds, I can still make some comparisons, but when it comes to music, chess, calligraphy and painting, it's a bit difficult.
So right now, the girls have almost no reaction.
On the other hand, Wang Yuyan and Li Qingluo had nothing to do at Mantuo Villa, and they knew how to play Go.
Although I am not an expert in this way, I can probably understand the way.
The two of them looked at the chess game, and saw that there was a calamity within a calamity in this game.
There are ways of symbiosis and ways of living independently, such as counterattack, gathering Qi, and transforming into five groups and six groups, which are extremely complicated.
Wang Yuyan cared about her cheap cousin and looked at it most seriously. At this moment, she was very energetic and dismantled it carefully.
At first, she could barely keep up with her thoughts.
After a while, I suddenly felt dizzy. I only counted the life and death of a few white chess pieces in the lower right corner, and I felt the blood surge in my chest.
She took a deep breath, calmed herself down, and tried to calculate again. She realized that she thought the white piece was dead, but actually there was a way to survive.
But then I thought about it, to save the white chess piece, I need to kill dozens of black chess pieces next to it.
As a result, there are many things involved.
After a few more calculations, his vision suddenly turned black, his mouth felt sweet, and a small mouthful of blood suddenly spurted out.
The girls around him were immediately startled, but Chen Xuan was the only one who gloated.
"Good girl, you are really infatuated with your cheap cousin. It's a pity that your talent is limited. Although your chess skills are not weak, you can't even enter the game. Do you think you can help Murong Fu? It's a joke."
The reason why Chen Xuan made such cold remarks was to attack Wang Yuyan's delicate temperament.
Secondly, this Zhenlong chess game looks like there are hundreds of black and white chess pieces on the bluestone board under the withered pine trees. In fact, this chess game is extremely dangerous.
Although Chen Xuan didn't know how to play chess, with his martial arts skills, he could tell at a glance that the auras of Murong Fu and Su Xinghe suddenly changed and fluctuated.
This kind of momentum can only appear by the peerless masters who compete with each other in terms of internal strength.
When Duan Yanqing and Huang-browed Monk played chess, they competed for several days.
This Zhenlong chess game is even more complicated and dangerous, and I'm afraid Murong Fu won't get any benefits from it.
Wang Yuyan had never learned any martial arts, but this time it actually saved her life.
She vomited out a mouthful of blood and immediately woke up without any sequelae.
Seeing that she wanted to meditate on the Zhenlong chess game again, Chen Xuan hurriedly pretended to be worried.
"Miss Wang, are you okay? Does your chest hurt?"
As he said that, he reached out his hand and rubbed it.
Wang Yuyan's mouth was still a little bloody and she was speechless for a moment. She wanted to say something but was pushed back by Chen Xuan.
But looking at Wang Yuyan's murderous eyes, she probably wanted to stare Chen Xuan to death.
Li Qingluo on the side couldn't stand it and quietly pushed Chen Xuan.
However, Chen Xuan didn't let go and kept rubbing it.
For a moment, Wang Yuyan was so angry that her face turned red.
The two of them hadn't even finished checking in when they suddenly heard another "pop" sound.
This time, it was Murong Fu who stared at the chess game, staggered, and suddenly spat out a large mouthful of blood.
Wang Yuyan was very anxious when she saw this, and she forced herself to go over and have a look.
But Chen Xuan was unwilling to let her run away, so he pulled her back into his arms.
Before Wang Yuyan lost her temper, she suddenly heard a "pop" sound, and something flew from somewhere in the air and hit the chessboard.
Su Xinghe took a look and saw a small pine nut, which should have been dug out of the tree.
This pine nut happens to fall in the lower left corner of the chessboard, which is the key to cracking this "Zhenlong".
When he raised his head, he saw a corner of his light yellow robe exposed behind a pine tree five feet away to his left.
Su Xinghe stroked his beard indifferently and said.
"It turns out that another master has arrived here. I am very happy."
Having said that, just as he was about to respond with Heizi, there was a sudden soft sound in his ear.
A black pine nut flew from behind, exactly where Su Xinghe wanted to land it.
