"You are all rare chess players in the world. Gathering together today will bring glory to this palace." Long Jun said: "Get up, no need to be polite - now that everyone is here, let's start."
Lord Long spoke clearly and everyone couldn't help but look at each other. This seemed to be the voice of a girl, a little childish?
"Long Jun ordered you to start with black. Whoever can break this mess will be rewarded. The first one to break this mess will be rewarded heavily." Bei Nu didn't care what these people thought and said immediately.
Dragon Lord’s heavy reward?
It must not be vulgar!
The dozen or so people who came with Su Ziji, including Zheng Yingci, couldn't help but feel moved in their hearts.
After all, we are mortals, how many of us have no difficulties?
Not to mention anything else, just birth, old age, illness and death are enough worries for mortals whose life is short.
According to legend, the Dragon Lord of Shuifu has an elixir. Instead of seeking glory and wealth, it is a good thing to seek a few elixirs so that your family and yourself can live forever!
When I want to ask for money, I can't help but think of asking the Dragon King for a cornucopia afterwards, and then I will be rich. Thinking of this, many people's eyes shine.
"It turns out it's not a confrontation, it's about breaking the game. I must be the first to break the game."
Although there is a reward for breaking the game, there is a big reward for being the first one. Suddenly, no matter how high or low, people couldn't help but sit down to fight. When they noticed that Ye Buhui moved, Su Ziji hurriedly grabbed her.
Ye Buhui looked over dissatisfied, and Su Ziji shook his head slightly.
Although she also wanted to ask Lord Long if there was any elixir that could help mortals get out of danger, one advantage Ye Bugui had was that she could listen to the advice of people she trusted at critical moments.
In her eyes, Su Ziji was a trustworthy person. Seeing that Su Ziji showed his attitude, Ye Buhui hesitated.
With just a little hesitation, someone had already taken the lead and sat in front of the empty chessboard. The first one was the middle-aged man who claimed to be Yuxian, and he glanced at it proudly.
"Su Ziji, what's going on?" Seeing that Long Jun had stopped speaking, Ye Buhui asked Su Ziji in a low voice.
"Look at the people who came first." Su Ziji reminded in a low voice.
Ye Buhui was startled, and his eyes fell on the people who had arrived early. When he saw it, a basin of cold water was sprinkled on his head. He saw these chess players, all of them pale, trying not to tremble, but looking towards The eyes of the new people sitting in front of the chessboard, especially the middle-aged people, showed a sense of sadness at the death of a rabbit and a fox, mixed with the joy of escaping.
"this……"
"This chess game must be difficult to break. Let's see how it ends." Su Ziji only whispered.
In fact, the end of the middle-aged scribe came very quickly.
At first glance, the endgame was not very difficult, otherwise Ye Buhui would not have wanted to try it immediately. But when the middle-aged man sat down, the game changed.
"There are invisible people playing chess." Although there is no one on the opposite side, the chess moves and the players are playing against each other.
With this move, the seemingly ordinary endgame becomes infinitely mysterious to the eyes. Every move has various changes and possibilities.
"It looks like an ordinary endgame, but in fact, if you make one mistake, you will lose everything."
Just when Su Ziji felt awe-inspiring, after only a dozen moves, the middle-aged scribe stopped making a move for a long time. He was sweating profusely and his face turned ugly.
Su Ziji saw a look of giving up on his face.
"That's it!"
Su Ziji was startled when he found that the people who had been staring suddenly covered their faces with their sleeves. Just as he was about to remind them, the middle-aged scribe let out a long sigh and casually dropped the sunspots in his hands.
Boom!
In Su Ziji's eyes, the speed at which the sunspots fell suddenly became extremely slow, as if every movement could be seen clearly. However, no matter how slow it was, it would end. The next moment, the sunspots had fallen, and the slightly distorted square on the opposite side of the chessboard The environment is back to normal.
"I lost." The middle-aged man sighed. In this middle-aged man's view, admitting defeat is just losing the opportunity to get a big reward.
When he was playing chess just now, the endless pressure was really unbearable. When he found that he couldn't break the game, he immediately chose to give up. Although he was a little regretful, he was not afraid.
As a result, the next moment, I heard Long Jun, who had been silent during the chess game, say in a cold voice: "Thirteen pieces are lost. If you exceed the limit, you will be severely punished."
Before the middle-aged man could react to what this meant, a gust of wind rushed towards him. The middle-aged scribe looked in horror, and in the reflection of his eyes, he took a bloody mouth.
"Ah——" The screams stopped abruptly, and the headless body of the middle-aged scribe fell to the ground with a crash, and blood spurted out for several feet.
"Ah——" Everyone who saw this scene, including Su Ziji, froze on the spot.
Su Ziji was better. He had learned martial arts and killed people before. He reacted instantly and vaguely protected Ye Buhui behind him, his eyes tightly locked on the sudden appearance of the piranha.
Most of the remaining people were scribes and had never killed a chicken before. They suddenly turned pale and trembled with fear, and were even more frightened than the few people who came earlier.
By this time, Su Ziji naturally understood why the first few people who arrived had such complicated expressions when they saw the middle-aged scribe taking the initiative to play chess.
"This fish is as big as an adult native dog, extremely ferocious, and its mouth is larger than its body size. Is it a fish or a monster?"
"How many are there?"
I saw several almost identical piranhas appearing quickly and tearing at the remains of the scribes, wiping them out in an instant. I felt a chill on my body.
Even dying by the same kind of sword is more comfortable than being eaten alive by piranhas.
Except for the gaze of the monster, the people standing in the middle and those still playing chess were all holding their breath and concentrating. No one dared to breathe heavily, let alone speak.
But the chess game obviously must continue. Bei Nu waved her hand, and water rushed over, and the wreckage and blood were immediately washed away. She said: "Next one."
The crowd suddenly became commotion.
How can a chess player who has seen someone being eaten with his own eyes dare to go there?
Many people were stunned just now and didn't react, but now they collapsed.
"I don't want to play chess anymore. Let me get out of here!"
"Help, there's a monster!"
Following the first chess player who cried to leave, he turned around and ran away. There were already some people who had given up, and some followed him and fled away. It was okay not to move, but when Su Ziji moved, he didn't even have to smell it, he smelled urine. The smell spread. It was obvious that someone was so frightened that he lost control when the scene just happened. At this time, the smell spread as soon as he moved.
"Being disobedient before you is a capital crime!" A demon official said, Su Ziji subconsciously turned his eyes to one side, and sure enough, he heard a series of screams in an instant.
The screams were the same as those of a middle-aged scribe. You knew what the outcome would be without even looking.
Su Ziji sighed softly and thought to himself: "Since the Dragon Palace has robbed us people and dealt ruthlessly with them, it is impossible to let them go easily. If we escape at this time, we can only end our lives early." "
Just thinking about it, I was suddenly startled.
It turned out that not far away, I saw a girl, and she couldn't bear to close her eyes.
"Is this a young lady from the Hu family? Why is she here too?"
"Could it be..." Before he had time to think about it, the demon official standing on the steps became impatient when he saw that no one had filled the empty space, so he called his name: "You, come and compete."
"I, I..." A voice about to cry sounded. Su Ziji looked around and saw that the person being stared at was the boy who had made rude remarks on the boat. At this time, he was about to shed tears, but with the previous few How could he dare to escape from a tragic death?
I could only sit down with a trembling body, staring at the chessboard without tears, trying to find a flaw to give myself a little more life.
