The Path Toward Heaven

I don't know when Bai Zao came to the pavilion and stood quietly in the middle of the same door.

The wind blew her veil, revealing her delicate and delicate face.

Seeing her frown frowning, she seemed worried.

Other Zhongzhou disciples did not worry that Tong Yan would lose chess, and his expression was very calm. Only Xiang Wanshu seriously calculated the situation on the chessboard.

Guo Dong stood outside the crowd, not far from Zhao Layue and others. When everyone looked at the pavilion, she was watching Zhao Layue.

Zhao Layue knew she was looking at herself.If it is usual, she must look back, but this time she will only look at Jing Jiu.

Seeing boredom, he handed the grilled fish in front of Zhao Layue and lowered his voice and said, "Don't dislike it, it's really delicious."

Zhao Layue shook her head, she seldom eats, whether in Qingshan or outside.

Looking at the scene, Guo Dong showed a satisfied expression on his face.

He Zhan suddenly shouted: "How can I go this way? It doesn't make sense."

The people around looked at the pavilion one after another, thinking who was playing a game of chess?

In the pavilion, Jing Jiu and Tong Yan seemed to have not heard him, still watching the chessboard quietly.

The move was just taken by Jing Jiu just now. In many people's view, this move is very common and safe. I don't understand why He Zhan's reaction is so big.

Tong Yan made his own response and seemed to drop a white chess at will.

This move is also very common and safe.

Who thought He Zhan shouted again: "This is even more unreasonable!"

Many eyes fell on him.

People don't understand why this master chess player responded so well to these two moves.

At this time, Jing Jiu dropped another sunspot.

He Zhan stared at the chessboard, ignoring those who were watching him, and said in surprise, "Is this still possible?"

Tong Yan's next white hangs directly elsewhere.

He Zhan couldn't control his emotions anymore and shouted: "It's too cruel! You two guys are too cruel!"

His movements are large, his voice is louder, and he looks particularly loud in the quiet chessboard mountain.

Guo Dong looked back at Zhao Layue, looked at him expressionlessly and said, "Have you been talking so much?"

Someone is yelling while playing chess, of course it is extremely unbelievable.

Where did He Zhan not understand this truth, but just seeing such a game today, he really could not control himself.

"Okay, I won't say it."

He lifted the hip flask and took a sip of wine.

The extremely rare Dragon Bone Liquor looked so bitter in his mouth.

Because he drank booze.

The boredom mentioned here is not suffocation that cannot be spoken, but an indescribable emotion that is depressing.

...

...

Seeing He Zhan like this, and noticing the expressions of the three que Niang, Shang Jiu Lou and Gu Yuanyuan, the people who watched the chess finally understood something-the game in the pavilion was not as they thought It's so ordinary, I don't know how many thunders are hidden, but it is difficult to understand with their chess realm.

To understand this, people were excited again, looking at the chessboard in the pavilion, hoping to find out the hidden beauty.

It's just that no matter how serious they are, they keep thinking, they still don't see anything special.

Isn't this the most common start?

...

...

Sanqingguanli.

Zenko sat cross-legged on the couch, his bare feet protruding from under the robe, shaking continually, as if with a certain rhythm.

His eyes fell on the chessboard in front of him.

There are two urns on each side of the board.

Heather is open outside the window, the taste is too rich, and it is fragrant but almost smelly.

Probably for this reason, he kept frowning.

Not knowing how long it took, he finally ended the long exam and picked up a black spot and placed it on the chessboard.

Just when he was relieved and ready to get up, he noticed that the Taoist's expression was a little wrong.

"what happened?"

The Taoist hesitated for a moment and said, "This move ... does not seem to be here."

Chan Zi stunned and looked at the chessboard again.

...

...

Chessboard mountain peak.

An official said to He Guogong with a smile: "Guogong, what do you think of this game?"

He glanced at Guo Gong and said, "How do I see it? How can I understand it so deep."

The official was not afraid, and said with a smile: "Who are you betting?"

The May Fair is a gathering for monks, but it also affects the secular world. Not to mention, the gamble in Chaoge City must be closely related to this.

He patted the official on the back and smiled and said, "You are stupid when I'm stupid. Of course, I'm betting Tong Yan. Although I can't win much, is it not stable?"

...

...

Taichang Temple is very leisurely.

As a high-ranking official holding salaries in the court, he has always been known as an incorruptible person. Jingshang has always been careful not to show too diligent government affairs.

But he is rarely like today, staring at the tea in the cup can stay for a long time.

Eventually he couldn't sit still, he said to the deputy secretary, and he walked outside the Yamen gate.

Seeing his back disappear on the long street, the sound of discussion in the Yamen rang.

Jing Shang had a younger brother, and he was sent out to Chaoge City when he was very young. I don't know where he went.Originally, the Jing family concealed this matter very strictly. However, there may be real secrets in the officialdom. In the past few years, many people vaguely knew that the young child of the Jing family should have been worshipped under a big school.

This year, the May Fair was held, and there were more gambling games in Chaoge City. After seeing the name Jing Jiu, some people who were interested in it naturally thought of the Jing family boy.

"Who would have thought that his younger brother had become the fairy priest of Qingshan Jianzong. With such a background, who would be willing to be on duty, this morning he retreated."

"The cultivator has no love, and the connection with the secular family is extremely weak, and it may not be able to help anything. Besides, it is just a disciple of Qingshan, and not a big man."

"But the court will not be too harsh at least, and there will always be some benefits when the next of kin is alive. Have you not seen Zhao Fu's popularity in these years?"

"Yes, I went to visit Zhao Gong during the New Year. Gee, the good things in the house really piled up in the mountains. I heard that they were sent from Nanhe Prefecture."

...

...

The businessmen did not even know what their colleagues were talking about behind their backs, and even if they knew it, they did not have the mood to ignore it.

The news circulated in Chaoge City very quickly, and the matter of Qipan Mountain reached his ears soon after.

When he knew that Jing Jiu's opponent in the first game was Tong Yan, his brain suddenly buzzed and almost fainted.

Of course, there is no brotherhood between him and Jing Jiu. Even if Jing Jiu loses, he shouldn't affect his future, but ...

Thinking about these things all the way, his clothes were cold and sweaty, and his thoughts were a little trance. When he woke up, he found that he had come to the Chengguo government.

The entire Chaoge City knows that Cheng Guo Gong is good at chess, and the most advanced and safest game of the Meihui chess game is here.

A steward noticed him, and came forward and said, "Sir, you're finally here. Please hurry in."

Jing Shang took out his handkerchief and wiped the sweat on his forehead. After hesitating for a moment, he whispered, "Can I still withdraw at this time?"

The steward looked at him and smiled, but said nothing.
