I remember when "Monopoly IV" came out, Tang Ping, Gou Dashao and Li Shan were obsessed with it.
At that time, the three of them ran directly to Tang Ping's house after school because there was no adult in charge of them at home.
They worked together for a few times to finish the homework, and then started playing the game.
I can usually play until after nine o'clock in the evening. If I can't finish a game, I save it and wait to continue the next day.
When the three of them went to school the next day, they would all yell at each other about who was stronger last night.
Zhen Youqian, who is now exposed to this kind of game for the first time, is almost the same as the three brothers back then.
When he returned to his ship, he asked the cook to get some food, and then called a few of his capable subordinates.
After all, Tang Ping can't always accompany him in the future. As long as his close friends learn how to play this chess, they can accompany him to relieve his boredom in the future.
You must know that after coming to Nanyang, the transportation is basically by boat.
A sailboat relying only on the power of the wind can float on the sea for months at a time. This kind of time-killing board game is perfect for it.
Especially today, a few of his subordinates who followed Zhen Youqian to Tang Ping's ship came back and started talking about things like buying a shop to collect rent, buying artifacts and magic from the Immortal Family Cave, and other tricks to deceive each other.
Soon all the subordinates who felt that they looked familiar in front of Zhen Yougan gathered around.
If there were so many people surrounding him on weekdays, Zhen Youqian would have gotten angry a long time ago.
But today was different, because he had gained confidence in playing this game, and he felt very happy when his subordinates could watch him kill everyone.
So not only did they not chase anyone away, but they also called the cook to give everyone some food so that they could watch and play.
Regardless of Tang Ping's psychological quality, as long as his true identity is not discovered, there is no danger in playing chess.
After finishing today's move, he recalled many of his past routines and once again fought evenly with Zhen Yougan.
More than half an hour later, except for Tang Ping and Zhen Yougan, everyone else in the chess game had gone bankrupt and quit the game. Now it was the two of them starting a one-on-one duel.
"Hey, I bought Qiongqi!" Zhen Youqian laughed happily while holding a wooden card. This time he entered the grid of Xianjia Cave and bought the Qiongqi card, so that he could cast three shots at a time. A dice roll, and you will soon be able to leave this area where most of the land is Tang Ping.
Taking two more dice from his subordinate, Zhen Yougan asked casually: "Do you think there are really immortals in this world?"
"Of course there is!" Tang Ping said with confidence: "It is said that this Monopoly chess game came from a fairy island. Otherwise, how could I have thought of such an interesting thing."
"Oh? Is there really one?" Zhen Youqian just asked casually, but he didn't expect that there really were immortals after hearing what Tang Ping meant?
People of this era maintained a considerable amount of respect for the theory of ghosts and gods, and even people like Zhen Youqian were dubious.
After all, his old enemy Tang Ping is said to be a man from heaven. The reason why the Tang Dynasty developed so fast is that Tang Ping brought many magical things. ?
Now that he heard that there really is an immortal, Zhen Youqian couldn't help but sit up straight.
"Then do you have any news about the Immortal?"
"Uh..." Tang Ping hesitated for a moment, and then said to Zhen Youqian with a look of embarrassment: "Actually, to be honest with the prince, our fleet actually heard news from the Immortal in the past, saying that the Immortal Island is located in the South Ocean. , called Bai Yujing!"
"In Nanyang? Called Bai Yujing?" Zhen Youqian opened his eyes wide, then looked at the men surrounding him and coughed.
The cronies around him knew that this was something the two of them talked about and couldn't let too many people know about it, so they started to help drive them away.
After a while, only Tang Ping and Zhen Yougan were left in the cabin.
"Tell me carefully." Now Zhen Youqian was no longer interested in playing chess.
After all, although he was a playboy, it was just for fun. If he could really find an immortal, he thought maybe he could fight against Tang Ping.
Tang Ping was just fooling around casually, and he didn't expect that Zhen Youqian really believed it, so he could only continue to lie: "The villain also saved a fisherman at sea in the past. It is said that he encountered a typhoon and was finally killed by the fairy island. He was saved by the immortal. In fact, I learned this Monopoly chess game from him."
"It's said to be a fairy island, but it's not on the sea. I didn't believe it at first because of what he said. But the fisherman couldn't read a single Chinese character, but he could recite a poem."
"poetry?"
"Yes, it's just a poem." Tang Ping looked up as if thinking, and then said sorry to his disciple Li Bai in his heart.
"The white jade capital in the sky, five cities on the twelfth floor. Immortals caressed my head, and I tied my hair and received immortality. I mistakenly pursued the happiness of the world, and I was quite confused. Ninety-six saints, floating in the clouds with empty names. I gambled on heaven and earth, but failed. Forget the war. Try the overlord strategy, a little... a little..."
"What are you talking about?" Zhen Youqian couldn't help but become a little anxious when he saw Tang Ping stuttering there.
"Your Highness, I...I forgot..." Tang Ping said with an embarrassed look.
"You loser, how could you forget such an important thing?" Zhen Youqian said angrily: "Where is that person?"
"who?"
"That's the fisherman!" Zhen Youqian was born in a Dongyue family in the south of the Yangtze River. Although he was a bit dandy, his appreciation of poetry was excellent.
He didn't believe that a fisherman or a rough sailor like Tang Ping could write such a poem.
And isn’t the fairy family described in the poem exactly what it looks like? In addition, the various immortal props and magic techniques in the Monopoly chess piece all prove the existence of immortals.
If he could find the fairy island called Bai Yujing and ask the immortal to give him magical weapons, wouldn't he not have to be afraid of Tang Ping?
"Being... captured by someone." Tang Ping gritted his teeth and pretended to be frank and lenient: "I'll tell you the truth, Your Highness, in fact, I went to see Lord Balabu this time just to invite you. He sent troops to help me get the people back."
"Why are you such a good-for-nothing? Why are you talking so incoherently? Who robbed you?"
"They were captured by the Javanese." Tang Pingxin said that you don't know him anyway, so just blame the Javanese. "The Javanese got the news from somewhere and captured the fisherman. I actually There used to be more than 30 boats, but now there are only these five left."
"If His Highness the Crown Prince is willing to help me avenge and kidnap that fisherman, he is willing to work hard for you, just...just..."
"What do you just want?"
"I just hope that when the time comes I find an immortal and let him touch my head. Doesn't that poem say that the immortal caressed my head and tied my hair so that I can live forever?"

"Your calculation is pretty good..." Zhen Yougan looked at him and said, "Then tell me everything you know honestly."
