Luo Han's heart suddenly shivered, knowing that the former patriarch of the Duan clan in Dali must have known the truth about yesterday afternoon.
But so what, he wasn't afraid if he wasn't caught doing it.
Moreover, he also suspected that it was not Duan Zhaofeng and Duan Zhaohu who took the initiative to say it, but it was the Supreme Elder Duan Zhaolong who guessed it himself.
Duan Zhaofeng and Duan Zhaohu were successfully attacked by one of his great disciples and grandchildren. It was a very shameful thing. How could it be publicized to the outside world?
"Masters Zhaofeng Zeng and Zhaohu Zeng only paid attention to it because they felt that the disciple's cultivation speed was different from ordinary people. In fact, apart from the fact that the disciple's cultivation speed was faster and his memory was a little stronger than normal people, there was nothing else surprising about him.
"Rohan answered calmly, avoiding the important and taking the easy.
Duan Zhaolong's eyes flashed with excitement, and then he smiled slightly, without trying to point it out: "You are already in the innate realm, why do you need to belittle yourself? I also heard that a month ago, you had a fight with Qi Liang's nephew, and you didn't fall behind?"
"This is the generous concession of Master Qi Liang. If Master Qi Liang hadn't been sitting on the viewing platform and refused to give way, the disciple's accusation would definitely not have hit Master Qi Liang." I don't understand this former patriarch of the Duan family in Dali.
As for what he was thinking, Luo Han's answer was quite cautious.
This is also the truth. If Duan Qiliang is allowed to evade, or if Duan Qiliang is willing to evade regardless of face, it is difficult to say who will win and who will lose in a fight between him and Duan Qiliang.
Duan Zhaolong's eyebrows twitched: "You should be careful! But don't worry, although I am very interested in your cultivation, I am not ready to fight with a junior like you. Can you play Go?"
Luo Han raised his eyes in surprise, and then confessed: "I know a little bit, I know the rules, but I'm not good at it." He is also a beginner.
"Well, I have nothing to do now, how about you accompany me for the next game?" Duan Zhaolong looked at him with satisfaction.
Although the tone was questioning, it was obvious that Luo Han could not refuse.
Just go down!
Rohan nodded.
There happened to be a ready-made stone table in the yard, so Duan Zhaolong walked over first and sat down on the cold, hard stone bench.
Following Duan Zhaolong, a Duan family member who was waiting at the entrance of the courtyard immediately offered him the sandalwood chess box he had been holding in his hand.
Duan Zhaolong opened the round lid and revealed the chess pieces inside.
Luo Han glanced casually, and his eyes suddenly became focused.
The white one is the best mutton-fat white jade, and the black one is the best black jade that is so transparent that no impurities can be seen.
All of them are beautifully carved and have an excellent luster.
Moreover, it is already the Mid-Autumn Festival, but the surfaces of these two chess pieces continue to exude a hint of warmth.
All of them are warm jade!
"Sure enough, this is a family that has been in the family for hundreds of years. This warm jade suet-fat white jade chess piece alone is worth at least tens of millions. Not to mention this warm black jade!" Luo Han couldn't help but sigh in secret.
If he asks Yuxue for help, he should be able to gather such materials, but Yuxue is a mountain spirit and has his own magical powers, but the Duan family in Dali relies entirely on the accumulation of contacts over hundreds of years!
The Duan son was about to take out the chessboard paper from the chess box, but Duan Zhaolong waved his hand: "No need for this!"
Don't need this?
How to get off?
Luo Han was muttering, but Duan Zhaolong had already used his fingers to draw a long and straight chess line directly on the surface of the smooth stone table. As he drew, he said: "Xiao Luo, I draw my own, you draw yours!"
Rohan understood immediately.
Test your finger strength?
For a warrior in the innate realm, this does not seem to be difficult!
He followed Duan Zhaolong's example, and his fingers were also flying, and the stone table suddenly flew with snow.
The Duan's disciple's eyes flashed, slightly strange, but he soon regained his composure.
In just a few minutes, this simple stone chessboard was made. The vertical and horizontal lines were of the same depth, but the thickness was slightly different. It was obvious that Luo Han was on par with Duan Zhaolong in terms of strength control.
Duan Zhaofeng looked at it without comment, then asked: "Do you want white or black?"
Luo Han said humbly: "Please choose the Supreme Elder first!"
"Okay! Then I'll choose Heizi!" Duan Zhaolong said unceremoniously.
Luo Han's eyes twitched slightly. Choosing Heizi means that Duan Zhaolong wants to leave first?
Just go, you're a beginner anyway, it doesn't matter if you lose.
"Please, Great Grand Elder!"
Duan Zhaolong nodded slightly, but then said: "I heard that at the Yulong Duan clan's initiation ceremony, you took the sixth test and your emergency response to emergencies was also 'excellent'?"
Luo Han nodded cautiously: "It's the care of the elders."
Duan Zhaolong smiled faintly: "You don't have to be modest, this kind of test cannot be faked. I want to play a special game of chess with you today, do you dare?"
Luo Han secretly curled his lips in his heart. They were all coming, how could he refuse to fight?
"Everything follows the orders of the Grand Supreme Elder." He said calmly.
"Okay!" Duan Zhaolong nodded with satisfaction, and then said: "My request is very simple. Are you playing chess? Don't think too much about it. This disciple of mine is counting the numbers on the side. Within ten seconds, you must make a move. Take forty.
It’s limited to minutes and hours, let’s see who wins, how about that?”
Ten seconds?
It doesn't matter, just lose, I don't understand it very well, and the other party is much older, so there is no shame in losing!
Rohan nodded.
Duan Zhaolong smiled slightly, stopped talking, picked up a smooth and warm black jade chess piece, and placed it on the chessboard.
Just when he released it, Luo Han's pupils suddenly shrank.
With a "bang" sound, the black warm jade chess piece was deeply embedded in the stone plate, without any damage, and the top was just flush with the stone surface.
Not only is the surface of the nephrite chess piece intact, but even the concave hole in the stone table is quite smooth and flat. It is not a rough hole that has been damaged, but is as if it has been smoothed by a drill and is very round.
.
"It turns out he wants to use this method to test my skills!" Luo Han now understood completely.
Black jade is also a type of soft jade. If it is knocked hard against a stone, the jade will generally be damaged. Unless someone has profound skills, they can penetrate the jade surface and protect it from harm.
Moreover, this game of Go also requires an eye. If the siege is empty, the nephrite chess piece must be shaken out of the deeply embedded stone, or sucked out. No matter which one is used, it will test the internal strength of the player.
.
What's more, Duan Zhaolong also stipulated that the move must be made within 10 seconds, which only gave Luo Han only a few seconds to recover his skills every time he made a move.
In a short period of time, it may be no problem, but as time goes by, your grasp of the true energy will inevitably decrease.
"Come on, we just embarrassed two weak ones yesterday, and today a strong one came." Luo Han has reason to believe that it is precisely because he caused Duan Zhaofeng and Duan Zhaohu to suffer a big loss, so today Duan Zhaolong
Only then will they come to your door.
"It doesn't matter, just play. My chess skills may not be as good as yours, but my true energy may not be inferior to yours!" Luo Han was also aroused to be competitive.
Listening to the young Duan son next to him starting to count, Luo Han also concentrated on playing chess.
…………
As soon as Luo Han's party started, Duan Chengxian was quickly notified of the news by a member of the Duan family who was serving on the side.
Duan Chengxian just breathed a sigh of relief to send Duan Haiming to the Sutra Collection Pavilion. When he heard this, he frowned: "What? Dad went to play chess with that Luo Han?"
"Yes! The great elder brought the warm jade chess set, or the chessboard carved with the force of his fingers on the stone table in the yard. The chess pieces must all sink into the stone table before they are settled. The great elder
It is also stipulated that the thinking time cannot be longer than 10 seconds." This Duan family member is also smart. Although he reported respectfully, there was a bit of a smile on his lips and eyes.
If the Supreme Elder comes forward, Luo Han will definitely lose in disgrace.
But Duan Chengxian didn't see it that way.
"It's strange. Since my father resigned as the clan leader, he has only concentrated on practicing "Zhou Tian Xing Jue" in the yard, in order to break through early and avoid big things. He rarely comes out. How could he suddenly find Luo Han, a disciple of the Yulong Duan family from outside? Even if
It’s Luo Han who has reached the innate realm, but he is also a junior several generations away? Moreover, it is still in this limited time method, which is obviously to test Luo Han’s skill.”
"Then do you know what the Supreme Elder did before he went there?" After thinking for a while, Duan Chengxian asked again.
The Duan family disciple was suddenly confused: "Before? You were staying in Lancui Pavilion before! Oh, by the way," he suddenly remembered something: "Today, it was the Grand Supreme Elder and the two concubines Zhaofeng and Zhaohu.
It was a day when the elders had tea together, but neither the two elders Zhao Feng and Zhao Hu came."
Duan Chengxian understood immediately.
Duan Zhaofeng and Duan Zhaohu were tortured by Duan Haiming for a long time yesterday afternoon. He witnessed it with his own eyes. The two Supreme Elders accidentally lost Jingzhou and were successfully plotted by Duan Haiming.
They were all so annoyed and angry that they turned purple. It wasn't until about eleven o'clock last night that they resumed normal activities. Maybe they just wanted to use this absence to complain to their father.
After all, today's Duan family in Dali is a strong person in the innate realm, and Duan Zhaolong can still compete with Duan Haiming. Others of the same generation as Duan Haiming have not reached the innate realm.
"But there is no need for father to embarrass a junior? Isn't this a loss of identity?" Duan Chengxian had just turned this idea in his mind, and suddenly an idea occurred to him, and he thought of something that he had never been able to figure out before: "Could it be that yesterday afternoon
, was Duan Haiming working in the open and Luo Han working secretly, working together to assassinate the two uncles Zhaofeng and Zhaohu?"
Otherwise, how to explain that Duan Zhaofeng, who has already cultivated 10 spiritual apertures in "Zhou Tian Xing Jue", unexpectedly lost to Duan Haiming, who had only entered the innate realm for more than two months and had no chance to practice "Zhou Tian Xing Jue"?
"You Luohan, you are so cunning, so bold, you ignore your elders, and even I was deceived by you!" Duan Chengxian's face quickly darkened.
If his father hadn't taken the initiative to come to the door, he still wouldn't be able to figure out the connection.
This is naturally a big shame for Duan Chengxian, who has always prided himself on being clever and resourceful, because Luo Han did this in front of him and clearly did not take him seriously!
Maybe later, after his father had taught Luo Han a lesson, he would also teach him a lesson in private. Who prevented him from discovering and stopping him on the spot?
