Chapter 349 Chess Game
The cold rain was like needles, piercing thousands of transparent holes in the rotten leaves all over the mountain.
The figure crushed the bones in the mud, and the two Emei spears slid out from the black hair, bringing up silver water droplets. Just as the third blood flower bloomed in the throat of the corpse ghost, the cold fragrance of metal had re-immersed itself in the raven-colored hair bun, like the glimmer of light when the cold pond put away the blade.
"Yu Shuoyang, that stinky boy——"
The last note broke through the rain curtain, three times clearer than the blood on the tip of the Emei Spear. The accumulated water overflowed the deerskin boots embroidered with honeysuckle patterns. In the distance, thunder rolled through the forest, startling the wet crows.
The remaining bloodstains spread out into a light red spider web in the rain, entangled with the ashes of the talisman paper thrown from the man's fingertips. When the last bit of cinnabar dissolved into the mud, the sound of tiny silver bells suddenly rang out in the woods, as if someone had crushed the stars and attached them to the ends of the hair.
"You came here..."
----
Because of the incident of Liu Jiqian being abducted into the hands of the demons, the Wenxian Sect became busy, but they were not looking for him, but training disciples. There was a sense of impending storm.
The bamboo curtains cast three layers of shadows, and the eaves angle to lift nine layers of clouds.
In the Wenxian Sect, two cups of cloud tea were steaming with wisps of green smoke. The rosewood chessboard was covered with stars, and the black and white colors were entangled like dragons and snakes rising from the ground. The supreme elder was very calm about Liu Jiqian's affairs and played chess with Tao Yin.
The Supreme Elder held the white chessboard, and his wide sleeves brought up the crisp scent of pine as they swept across the chessboard. The white jade beads on his fingertips knocked down the Tianyuan, startling the green birds under the eaves and causing them to flap their wings and fly away.
"The corpse ghosts and phantom demons are causing chaos, and they even created a goddess Bodhisattva. It just so happened that Ji Qian was here on patrol."
The fate of clan leader Tao Yin Heizi remained undecided, and the cloud-thunder pattern embroidered with gold thread on his black cuffs flickered in the morning light.
"This demon clan is really worry-free. The timing of closing the net is very clever."
The tea soup reflected the silver-white eyebrows of the Supreme Elder, and he suddenly threw the white chess pieces into Tao Yin's Black Dragon Formation. The sound of chess pieces falling on the board was like broken jade, and the bamboo forest outside the window rustled.
"Do you think they don't know Weiyun's identity?"
Tao Yin knocked the chess pot with his knuckles, causing the black pieces in the pot to hum and resonate. "How could they not know about setting this up for Junior-Martial-Nephew Liu?" The black pieces brazenly broke into the white formation, and the chess pieces seemed to be asking about the nine-square positions of the Xianzong mountain protection formation. "But I'm afraid they missed something."
Suddenly, thunder roared past the window. On the chessboard, black and white energy rose up into the sky, condensing between the beams into the image of two dragons fighting. The Supreme Elder put his fingers together to cut off the dragon energy, and the white dragon turned into starlight and sank into the chess pieces. "These youngsters are quite lively. I heard that Zhu Yu (Ji Yanli) and Qin Xiao from the Regulation and Correction Department somehow fought for three hundred miles?"
"Young people are full of energy and vitality, and their minds are full of enlightenment." Tao Yin suddenly pushed the chessboard aside and stood up. When his black cloak was about to sweep away the remaining chess game, he was covered by the hands of the supreme elder.
"That's what you say, but don't regret your move!" Fortunately he was watching!
"Ahem... No, no, I just changed my position. It was an accident."
The Grand Elder snorted and looked at the mountain peaks that were faintly visible in the sea of clouds. "When Weiyun defeated the geniuses of various sects, wasn't it the same scene? It's always good to have that kind of energy."
"Master, do you have any plans?"
"When fishing, you have to give up the bait... Let those little guys mess around. If nothing else, they are still capable of causing damage. When the demons can no longer sit still, it's time to close the net."
"Uncle Master, are you going to give up Weiyun?" The silver bamboo pattern embroidered on Tao Yin's sleeves trembled slightly, "But that child is..."
The situation on the chessboard suddenly changed. The supreme elder's white piece hit the black dragon's eye. The whole dragon was suddenly filled with death. It seemed to be raining outside, and the sounds of iron horses could be faintly heard from the rain.
"Hush." The Grand Elder interrupted his words and tapped his skinny fingers on the rosewood armrest. "Listen."
The sound of sword energy tearing through the rain curtain was accompanied by the roar of purple lightning, which made the bronze bells on the eaves of Songtao Hall ring, and the sound of words could also be heard.
"Hold on steady!" The elder's shout pierced through the rain, "The bloody murderous aura of the demons is a hundred times more dangerous than this!"
It turns out that the three thousand disciples of Wenxian Sect are practicing the Liangyi Zhuxian Formation.
Amid the sound of leaves hitting the forest, there was a faint whistle of a sword array breaking through the air. A smile appeared on the face of the Grand Elder, and a bright light suddenly flashed in his cloudy eyes: "The Wenxian Sect has been established for thousands of years, and it has never relied on a certain person."
He flicked his fingertips, and the black piece actually burned a scorch mark on the chessboard: "They want to use Ji Qian as bait? Then let them know that this bait - has barbs."
He is Liu Jiqian's grandfather and the supreme elder of the Wenxian Sect. Besides, Liu Jiqian would not get into trouble so easily...
"I heard that Yangming established new rules in the Cangsheng Alliance?" The supreme elder suddenly changed the subject.
"Disciples of the alliance will compete. The winner can become the leader of the Common People Alliance?"
Tao Yin smiled knowingly, and the black piece flew into the Tianyuan position in the center of the chessboard, turning the deadlock around: "Children must see blood before they know where to swing the sword. Besides... do you think that kid will suffer a loss?" No matter whether he wins or loses, he will have those silly kids under his control.
“Hahahaha, that’s right.”
Not only is it a good way to screen capable people, it can also help you better understand the situation of the disciples in the alliance...
If he remembered correctly, the helmsman seemed to be short of people, and most of those chosen ones seemed to be on the original list of hall masters... What is this, working myself to death, just to get back everything that originally belonged to me?
The supreme elder touched his chin and said: If I deceive those stupid kids like this, their elders won’t come looking for me, right?
It doesn't matter, I can't beat him anyway.
Anyone who dares to come up to him must have eaten too many red beans and is missing him.
A slap for the young one, two slaps for the medium-sized one, and the Eighteen Dragon Subduing Palms for the immortal one.
Those who are disrespectful to the elderly may seem old, but in fact they are not. Instead, they look younger, because they will be beaten like grandsons by him. (●v?6?6v●)
Well, that's pretty overbearing.
However, the current chess situation is not very good for him...
"Hey, there is a demon cultivator there..."
"Uncle Master, what nonsense are you talking about......"
Although he said so, Tao Yin's body was very honest. He turned his head to look almost as soon as the Supreme Elder finished speaking.
As a result, thunder exploded and the chessboard cracked, leaving Tao Yin with a confused expression.
The Grand Elder hid his guilty conscience, looked at the scattered chess pieces, and laughed loudly to cover it up. Every chess piece that fell to the ground turned into a golden rune and seeped into the earth veins.
Rainbow lights rose simultaneously from the seventy-two peaks outside the pavilion, connecting among the clouds to form a Tai Chi diagram that covered the sky and the sun.
"It's time to move to a bigger chessboard for this game of chess." The silver beard of the Grand Elder moved without the wind, and the stars in the sky appeared in his pupils. "The demons want to eat our piece, but it's still unclear whether they can eat it or not..."
Tao Yin: “...Uncle Master!” Don’t think that you can cover up your regrets by pretending to be profound and pretentious, Uncle Master!!!
The Grand Elder curled his lips and said, "Why are you so loud? I can hear you!"
