When King Yishan came to Qingshe to issue a battle invitation, King Qinggui was also present. But at that time, she only left Qingshe with a meaningless sentence such as "please go to the Vientiane Market when you have time", which really left the latter baffled.
Because the Green Ghost King's words were so indifferent, and because Qingshe was plagued by so many troubles at that time, that at this moment, he had completely forgotten the Blue Ghost King's words...
Considering that King Qinggui tried every possible means to dissuade King Yishan during the sparring, and even did not hesitate to use words to offend him, it should not be detrimental to him. So when he saw that the Green Ghost King didn't say anything clearly, Qingshe didn't ask any more questions and went straight to the Wanxiang Market to find out.
But just before he arrived at Shidun on the familiar road, he found that the place was extremely quiet, and the lazy man and the boy playing chess were nowhere to be seen.
Because he had the token in hand, Qingshe didn't pay much attention, he just wanted to open the entrance himself. But when he walked around the stone pier, he found that the scroll had also disappeared!
"Huh? Where is the entrance to the Wanxiang Market here?" Qingshe frowned, and was about to go back to find the Qinggui King to ask clearly, but heard a voice from behind: "The chess basket has been waiting for the Taiyin King for a long time! "
Upon hearing this, Qingshe turned around and saw a young man strangely appearing on the stone pier, bowing to him. When the visitor introduced himself, he emphasized the third word "子" very strongly, which sounded indescribably weird.
"You are..." Qing She seemed to have never seen such a person in his mind, and said warily.
"King Taiyin, don't be nervous. We have met before. The first time you came here was the gate of the market opened by Qi Zizi for you." Qi Zizi said respectfully.
Qing She thought about it carefully and realized that the guy who opened the door for him was obviously a boy, but... the young man and the boy did have some similarities in facial features.
"So it's you...but why did your appearance change like this?" Qingshe nodded slightly.
The chess basket made a light move and fell down from the stone pier. He explained: "Back to the Taiyin King, I just transformed into a spirit from an object. Because the original material is inferior and wears out violently, my appearance will also change accordingly."
"That's right." Qingshe understood, then pointed to Shidun aside and said: "Qi Zuzi, why is the entrance to Wanxiang Market missing?"
"Back to Taiyin King, it's not that the entrance is missing, but that the Wanxiang Market is missing." Qi Zuzi said.
"What did you say?" Qing She couldn't believe her ears, "How is that possible?"
"King Taiyin, don't be nervous..." Qi Zuzi repeated the consolation again, "Please come with me first, and let me explain to you slowly on the way..."
As he said this, the chess basket jumped back onto the stone pier, and then waved to Qingshe.
Although Qingshe was suspicious, he still imitated the former and jumped onto the stone pier. Because there was not much space on the stone pier, he lowered his head and moved a step to the side to get out of the way, but he saw a chessboard carved on the plane under his feet.
"King Taiyin, stand still, let's hit the road now..." Before Qing She could take a closer look, Qi Zuzi reminded him, and then his eyes blurred. When he recovered again, he found that he was in a world of black and white. among.
"Chess Basket, where is this place?" Qingshe looked around and saw a crisscross of roads on the ground, surrounded by large black and white mountains.
"Back to King Taiyin, here is the chessboard you just saw." Qi Zuzi said.
"Ah?" Qingshe was a little surprised. He originally thought he was teleported to a certain space, but he didn't expect to be shrunk.
"Don't worry, King Taiyin. The chessboard here is also a space. As long as you leave, you can return to normal..." Qi Zuzzi saw Qingshe's surprise and comforted him again.
Qingshe smiled helplessly and asked: "It doesn't matter, you should tell me what is going on at the Wanxiang Market first, right?"
Chess Basket nodded and sighed: "To be honest, the Wanxiang Market is not missing, it's just that the access is closed. And the reason why it is like this is really out of helplessness..."
I heard from Qi Zuzi that the Wanxiang Market was unstable due to poisoning, so this was done to prevent the underworld from being affected.
"Poisoning?" Qingshe was even more puzzled. "Are you sure it's poisoning? Why don't I know what kind of poison will affect space?"
Qi Zizi nodded: "The Taiyin King is right. There is indeed no poison in the world that will affect the rules of space, but this Wanxiang Market is an exception! Because it is not actually a space, but the all-encompassing origin. "
"Baoluo?" Qingshe had heard of this name before. He found it interesting to associate Baoluo with Wanxiang's name before, but now he finally understood, "You mean the executor in Wanxiang Market?"
Chess Basket nodded.
"Someone would actually poison Bao Luo... so he must have offended someone, right?" Qingshe guessed. Although he had no interaction with Bao Luo, he also knew that this person was the most fair and strict.
In the past, having this kind of character would indeed be praised by people, but in today's era, people with this kind of character are the most despised, and have gradually become a rare species, which is ridiculous to say the least.
Chess Basket nodded slightly, then shook his head: "To put it bluntly, it's not that I offended anyone, it's just that the existence of inclusiveness blocks the interests of some people in power..."
This chess player knows a lot. I heard he said it was because someone in the Six Halls saw the interests in Wanxiang Market and was jealous, and wanted to come in and get involved, but was severely punished by Bao Bao, so he held a grudge. In the heart, people often come to the entrance of the Vientiane Market to poison, hoping to weaken Bao Bao's strength and gain control of the Vientiane Market!
"It's really a shame for the Six Palaces that such things exist!" Qing She was indignant when he heard this, but he always felt that there was something wrong with Qi Zuzi's words, "Qi Zuzi, since you said that people often poison themselves? Then why don't you do it? Take some precautionary measures?”
The chess basket shrugged and said helplessly: "What can I do if I know, but it's a pity that the master won't let me."
"The owner of Wanxiang Market?" Qing She was stunned, "You mean the senior craftsman? Why didn't he let me go?"
"Oh? I didn't expect the Taiyin King to know a lot..." Qi Zuzzi was surprised, and then nodded: "Let's leave it at that, but that's fine, I don't have any scruples about words anymore..."
Qi Zuzi breathed a sigh of relief and continued to explain.
"The master said that there are three disasters, nine disasters and ten tribulations for the mortal body! As a natural spiritual creature, Bao Bao, although disasters can be avoided, this catastrophe is unavoidable! Although these catastrophes have been unified into one, this It has to bear the calamity by itself! Once someone intervenes, the calamity will return to ninety-nine, and Bao Bao will be wiped out in an instant, and his soul will be extinguished!"
"So senior is worried that poisoning will lead to disaster?" Qing She nodded.
"Yes, because this calamity is really unknown. Before it is completely clear, no matter what happens, the master will not let us interfere, because he is worried that something unexpected will happen..."
"Although the calamity cannot be interfered with, it is not completely without countermeasures. The master originally planned to let Bao Luo improve his strength before the calamity arrived, but he didn't expect... a sudden accident actually made the calamity advance..."
"Accident?" Qing She said.
"Yeah..." Suddenly there was a hint of helplessness on Qi Zuzzi's face, "Actually, it was the two palace masters of the Gongdian and the Bingdian who were poisoned in the first place, but then they suddenly disappeared due to accidents. There is no whereabouts..."
"At first, I thought this was a blessing. After all, the poisoning in Wanxiang Market was finally over. Who knew that the poisoner who had inherited the position of the palace master had no intention of stopping at all, and actually took this matter to an end. Inherit it!”
"Poisoner? You mean Ben Lei King and Yishan King? How is this possible?" Although they didn't get along too much, Qingshe had heard about Ben Lei King a lot. He didn't believe that Ben Lei King would do such a thing. kind of thing.
"Well..." Qi Zuzzi was silent for a moment, "I dare not say more about such leaks, but I can only tell you that there is only one person left who poisoned..."
Although Chess Basket didn't say it explicitly, the implication was obvious.
If it were before, Qing She would indeed be deceived by Hao Ren's appearance, but after experiencing this competition, he finally saw clearly what kind of face was hidden behind Hao Ren's skin.
Thinking of this, Qingshe frowned. No wonder this guy was so nervous when he saw him entering the Vientiane Market. It turned out that he was not just keeping an eye on his whereabouts, but there were other tricks involved!
"Thank you." Qingshe said solemnly.
"King Taiyin, don't get me wrong, I didn't say anything." The chess player laughed.
Qing She probably understood why Qi Zuzi had such an attitude, so he did not continue on this topic: "There is one thing I don't understand. What does the accident of these two palace masters have to do with the calamity?"
Qi Zuzi said: "The thing is like this... When the two palace masters were there, the amount of poisoning could be said to be very small. If the master's mind was not keen to detect abnormalities, it would be difficult for others to detect it! Even if the two palace masters later The matter was entrusted to the later poisoner, and he did not dare to break the rules. He just followed the instructions and carried out the poisoning honestly..."
"After the incident with the two palace masters, the poisoning matter was no longer under anyone's control. I originally thought that this matter would come to an end, but unexpectedly it turned out to get worse! This poisoner is very ambitious. He even hesitated for his own selfish interests. He began to double the amount of poison! Especially when he came last time, he doubled the amount of poison several times, which led to such consequences..."
Qingshe narrowed his eyes and asked calmly: "Then do you still remember when was the last time he came?"
"I can't remember the exact time. I only remember that there was a rumbling sound on the ground the next night, and the yin energy was much stronger than before!" Qi Zuzi recalled, and then continued: "In the beginning, the Wanxiang Market was only intended to be closed to the outside world for a period of time. Time, just because this incident was serious, the owner had no choice but to let me close the passage..."
After saying that, I saw the chess basket twirled with two fingers, and two big mountains, black and white, moved in front of my eyes, making a deafening friction sound with the ground.
Covered by the friction sound, Lunzi lowered his voice and muttered something secretly, as if he was talking to himself...
"Although the master didn't say it clearly, I can tell that he should have left the Wanxiang Market to fend for itself...Although the master warned me not to get involved in this matter, I couldn't bear the Qinggui King's humble begging..."
