"Arrange two, stand nine." Looking at the formation below, he suddenly raised his voice and gave instructions loudly.
The well-trained troops below were like fine fish, changing their formations instantly. The water surface was stirred and there was a splash. Chechi took a breath after hearing the sound and began to think about his plan.
Zhiyue Guiheng is already in hand, which is his biggest bargaining chip. However, Xi Zishi's situation is still unclear. If he wants to act recklessly, it is okay, but the chance of winning is extremely slim.
He had to be thoughtful. Because as a profound sage in chess, he is well aware of the principle of losing the whole game if he misses even one move.
This time, he was going to defeat Gui Xiao Changyuan's army.
His face gradually solidified, and the bones and flesh around his cheeks were as sharp as a knife. The sailors below were practicing by themselves, and their movement and silence seemed like two different worlds.
Suddenly, Tetsuji, who was sitting on the top of the city wall, heard a sound and saw a suspicious trail in the distance through the blood mist.
The heavy blood mist was as shallow as red gauze in his eyes. Through the fog, he spotted the small boat approaching as fast as a barracuda.
Like a mirror cut through by a sword, the boat cuts the water on both sides like meteors on the ground.
"That's..." Chechi heard the sound and focused his eyes carefully, and finally gradually saw the figure on the bow of the ship clearly.
Following closely behind the boat was an approaching commotion. After following the trajectory of the boat and looking back, we found that there were more than ten patrol boats following on the water at the rear.
I wasn't surprised to hear the sound. After all, he was the Holy Envoy Xi Zishi. Although those naval forces were highly capable, it was still impossible to catch up with him.
The gloomy sky, with a black and red background, filled the end of the field of vision.
Xi Zishi's eyes are like arrows, and his inner strength drives him. The boat rides the wind and waves, like a shark's wings splitting through layers of pool water, and rushes towards the black water sky barrier.
Seeing that he was about to approach the dense naval array ahead, Xi Zishi weighed it for a while and decided to slow down the boat to save Chechi Wen's face. The bow of the ship instantly lost its original indomitable momentum, and suddenly shook, and every plank seemed to fall apart.
The sailors in front had already noticed this uninvited guest, and they reorganized their ranks and surrounded him in his direction.
The water surface stirred up large white waves, and Chechi heard the sound and looked at the situation, clearly seeing it.
However, he did not issue urgent orders and was still observing silently. He wanted to see what the purpose of Xi Zishi's trip was.
However, Xi Zishi could not let him watch for long.
"I heard the sound, stop hiding, come out in person to greet your holy envoy." He raised his head and shouted loudly.
The sound infuses the inner force and sweeps in all directions. The surrounding troops were in a panic after hearing this, and some did not dare to get too close.
Chechi snorted lightly when he heard the sound, jumped from the city wall, and flew down directly.
Impartially, he landed right on the bow of Xi Zishi's boat. His steps were very steady, and he didn't even stir up any splashes around him.
"Practice on your own, don't be lazy." He looked at the people in front and ordered.
The troops received the order and dispersed to let the boats pass. The gate with copper rivets opened, and the two of them drove straight into the city wall.
After a while, I heard a sound inside the dark room.
The dim candlelight could only weakly illuminate one side of the chessboard. There was a cup of warm tea on each side, steaming slowly.
There was a piece of paper in front of him, and opposite him was a face that kept everything secret. Xi Zishi sat quietly for a moment and finally couldn't bear it anymore.
"Are you here to be my riddler? I came all the way here, not to play chess with you." He patted his thigh, his face full of impatience.
After all, the tea cup was drained, and Chechi heard the sound without saying a word. He didn't move the chess piece, and the two of them just faced off without saying a word, which was very boring.
"Give me that letter, are you planning to rebel?" Xi Zishi asked angrily.
Chechi was not in a hurry when he heard the sound. He looked at his expression first and then slowly said, "What did you do a few days ago?"
Xi Zishi was stunned. Although there was nothing to hide about the Heart Lake Meteor Iron, Chechi heard that the situation was special and he was thinking about whether to confess to him directly.
"You saw the letter I gave you, but you came alone." Chechi picked up the tea cup and took a sip, then put it down gently, "Lord Holy Envoy, can I know the reason?"
Xi Zishi was a little embarrassed by what he said, and looked directly at him: "...You are very rude."
The light flickered a few times, and their pupils were dancing like fireflies. Che Di heard the sound and stared at Xi Zishi for a moment, then suddenly smiled.
Xi Zishi felt very uncomfortable when he saw him. His eyes seemed to be able to reach straight into a person's heart, revealing everything he was thinking, whether he thought it or not.
"... I can't afford to be rude and such a serious crime." Che Chi heard that his tone was like a straight line, without any fluctuation.
The two already knew each other well. Xi Zishi was undoubtedly tempted by Che Di Wensheng's plan, so he came to test it out. And Che Diwensheng had already shown with his actions that he had made up his mind.
"Do you really not need an explanation? Maybe I am an enemy, and I have been ordered by the Shadow Master to find out your details." Xi Zishi said seemingly unintentionally while looking at the chess game.
Chedi shook his head when he heard the sound: "If the Holy Envoy dares to say this, it has already been proven."
Xi Zishi was forced to raise his head by his words. The meaning of Chechi Wensheng is very simple, because his power is greater than his own, and he must have planned multiple strategies. If the two of them were hostile, he would also be very confident in continuing the plan.
Now it is difficult for Xi Zishi's strength to return to its peak, and the gap between him and Che Di Wensheng is even further. Of course he knew full well that he didn't come here to fight.
"Holy Envoy, come and see this chess game." Chedi suddenly changed the subject when he heard the sound, drawing Xi Zishi's attention to the chessboard.
Xi Zishi is also good at chess. He lowered his head and took a brief look, but felt a little dizzy.
Just now, he thought it was just an ordinary chess game, but he didn't expect it to be a prop from Chechi Wensheng. After holding his forehead slightly, Xi Zishi's dizziness was slightly relieved.
"This..." He turned his gaze back to the chessboard again, but he was much more cautious and just slowly looked in from the corner.
Panning the perspective little by little, he roughly took the situation of the chess game into his mind. This is undoubtedly a very strange game. Black Zi surrounds Bai Zi but does not kill him. Bai Zi seems to be ventilated everywhere, but in fact he is restricted everywhere.
Every step to break through will be blocked by Heizi after counting. Only by keeping Qi inside and arranging it according to the paths left by the sunspots as if deliberately, can we avoid losing everything.
However, if he follows that approach, Bai Zi will undoubtedly become a puppet manipulated by Heizi. Although Xi Zishi's mental arithmetic is not enough to support him to see the last step, as the situation becomes increasingly narrow, I am afraid that the final outcome will be no different.
