The next day.
early morning.
In the courtyard, after placing the kettle on the stove, he glanced at Chu Qinghe who was still a little sleepy. Qu Feiyan asked in confusion: "Master, why are you drinking tea so early in the morning today?"
In the past, Chu Qinghe would only drink water when he was alone in the morning, and rarely drank tea after breakfast.
Chu Qinghe yawned and said, "Someone is coming soon, so let's take a dip first!"
After hearing what Chu Qinghe said, Qu Feiyan was startled and said, "Someone is coming? Who? Bai Xiaosheng?"
Chu Qinghe said lazily: "Who else could it be? Gong Ziyu."
After a pause, Chu Qinghe continued: "Well, we have reached the door now."
"Knock knock knock"
As soon as he finished speaking, a knock on the door suddenly came from the direction of the front yard.
The next second, Qu Feiyan felt his eyes blur. Yaoyue, Jellyfish Yinji, and Lianxing, who were still practicing in the inner courtyard, appeared in the other courtyard at almost the same time and sat down next to Chu Qinghe.
Later, Hanhan retracted her hand that was still holding a handful of melon seeds into her cuffs.
Not long after, under the guidance of Xiao Zhao, Gong Ziyu and Ming Yuexin entered the other courtyard.
After getting a little closer, Gong Ziyu smiled at Chu Qinghe and said, "Brother Chu."
Facing Gong Ziyu's greeting, Chu Qinghe nodded slightly and casually said: "Sit down!"
After sitting down with a smile, Chu Qinghe picked up the teapot and poured two cups of tea for Gong Ziyu and Mingyue Xin.
Looking at the water mist rising on the tea cup and the color of the tea, Gong Ziyu chuckled and said, "It seems that Brother Chu has already arrived and I will come here at this time."
Hearing this, Chu Qinghe said: "They have already lived in the yard opposite me. It would be unreasonable if I couldn't guess."
After hearing the voice, Gong Ziyu said with a smile: "When Brother Chu came back yesterday, he didn't hear the sound of the carriage. Calculating the time, he should have rushed back from the Song Dynasty as soon as he received the news, so there was no I came to visit yesterday, and I hope Brother Chu won’t be surprised.”
Chu Qinghe waved his hand casually.
A moment later, when the two moved to the pavilion to play chess, Gong Ziyu looked at Chu Qinghe and said: "But Brother Chu can come back in time. I think this time, Master Zhang's affairs should be worry-free."
In response, Chu Qinghe said: "If there are no accidents, the man from Da Qin will not go to Wudang in a few days."
"Oh?" Gong Ziyu raised his eyebrows slightly: "How can Brother Chu know this?"
Chu Qinghe said calmly: "We made some arrangements in advance, and then asked the guy to calm down for a while. There is a high probability that he will not cause trouble to Zhang Sanfeng and the others."
Gong Ziyu glanced sideways and said, "The words "probability" don't look like they can be uttered from Brother Chu's mouth."
Then, as the chess piece in Gong Ziyu's hand fell on the chessboard, he said, "Since Brother Chu rushed back in such a hurry and made tea early in the morning, are you planning to let me make this trip?"
Seeing that Gong Ziyu realized what he meant, Chu Qinghe was not surprised.
Chu Qinghe and Gong Ziyu are very similar, so when things happen, Chu Qinghe and Gong Ziyu's thinking styles are also particularly similar.
The only difference is the convenience of the angle.
Although Gong Ziyu makes decisions before acting, he puts himself in the chess game and then thinks about ways to break it.
Chu Qinghe, on the other hand, likes to jump out of the chess game and look at the entire chess game from the perspective of a bystander.
But now, Gong Ziyu was able to realize what he meant for the first time, which showed that after Gong Ziyu's mentality changed, his perspective of thinking also began to change.
In response, Chu Qinghe said: "It seems that you have been in a good mood in the past two years, and your reaction has been much faster than before."
Gong Ziyu smiled and said: "After all, the body has recovered, and the mind will naturally be more alert."
Afterwards, Chu Qinghe said: "Nothing is absolute. Regarding the guy from Da Qin, the identity is not yet certain. Even if I did something before, there is only a 70% chance that I can be sure that he will not intervene in a few days." There is a 30% chance that Zhang Sanfeng will continue to attend the Wudang Conference."
Gong Ziyu asked: "Since Brother Chu wants me to run for him, is there any way for me to deal with that person from Da Qin?"
Chu Qinghe raised his fingers lightly, and under the pull of spiritual energy, a chess piece in each of the two chess boxes fell into Chu Qinghe's hands.
With the surge of spiritual energy and sword energy in Chu Qinghe's body, the surface of the two chess pieces in Chu Qinghe's hands turned out to be covered with a layer of wax, and they looked slowly glowing and halo flowing.
But in Gong Ziyu's sight, there was actually a thin crack on the two chess pieces in Chu Qinghe's hands.
Nearly a hundred breaths later, Chu Qinghe controlled the two chess pieces and hung them in front of Gong Ziyu and said: "My two martial arts moves are sealed in these two chess pieces. After arriving at Wudang, you will use the white Give the chess piece to Master Zhang."
"If on the eighth day of the lunar month, you really meet that person from the Great Qin Kingdom, let Master Zhang lock the opponent's aura, pour the power of heaven and earth into it, and then throw it out, and then ask Master Zhang to tell him that the person who gave him the chess piece was once in I stayed on Daze Mountain."
"If that guy is still unwilling to leave, you can secretly lock on to that person's aura and pour your true energy into the sunspot to fight that guy out using hidden weapon techniques."
Listening to Chu Qinghe's words, Gong Ziyu's eyes moved slightly to the two chess pieces in front of him, and then looked at Chu Qinghe.
"that's enough?"
Chu Qinghe said: "With that guy's strength, the moves in this chess piece are powerful enough."
With Chu Qinghe's current strength, even if he can seal the moves at will, the power is definitely not what a warrior in the early stage of Breaking the Void Realm can do, let alone that Zhou Wanfeng was in the late stage of Zhaoshen Realm.
These two chess pieces are enough.
Then, Chu Qinghe added: "But the chess pieces are ordinary, so they can only be sealed for fifteen days at most. The moves in the two chess pieces will collapse and become useless."
There was a faint flash of light in his eyes.
After a while, Gong Ziyu said with a slightly sad tone: "I knew before that you had been hiding your strength, so I was also curious about the extent of your strength and cultivation, but now it seems that it has exceeded my imagination."
Facing what Gong Ziyu said, Chu Qinghe said: "That's not just right, it gives you another goal in the future."
Hearing this, Gong Ziyu smiled bitterly and said: "I'm afraid that this goal is too far away and out of reach, so that people can't think of catching up."
Chu Qinghe said casually: "You still have a long life, so it doesn't hurt to catch up slowly."
Hearing this, Gong Ziyu was startled for a moment, then shook his head and said: "For a moment, I forgot that my body has recovered now, and there is still a long time to come. There is really no need to be in such a hurry."
Afterwards, after chatting for a while, Gong Ziyu threw the chess pieces in his hand back into the chess box.
"Okay, now that things are oriented, I'll get on my way early so as not to miss the time."
Hearing this, Chu Qinghe said: "With your Qinggong, it will take at most two days to get to Wudang from here. Why rush for this moment?"
Gong Ziyu smiled bitterly and said: "I'm not in a hurry to leave now, but the problem is that my current chess skills are far from your opponent, Brother Chu. If I lose too much, it will inevitably affect my mood. It's better to leave early."
Facing the reason given by Gong Ziyu, Chu Qinghe laughed dumbly and said: "That's okay."
Seeing this, Gong Ziyu picked up the tea cup and took a sip of tea before leaving with Ming Yue Xin.
After a while, after returning to the courtyard across the Chu Qing River, looking at Gong Ziyu who was holding two chess pieces and looking at them, Ming Yue Xin came over and took a curious look and asked: "Did you and Bai Xiaosheng talk about it before? I mentioned before that the cultivation strength of that person from the Great Qin Kingdom is already above the Heavenly Realm, a hundred times stronger than Zhang Sanfeng."
"With such strength, can it be solved with just two moves sealed in this chess piece?"
Facing Mingyue Xin's question, Gong Ziyu chuckled and said, "What others say may not be true, but what Brother Chu says must be true."
Listening to Gong Ziyu's words, Mingyue Xin couldn't help but raise her eyes to look at Gong Ziyu.
After a few breaths, Ming Yuexin shook her head and said, "You really have no reason to trust him. You did this to Bai Xiaosheng before."
Gong Ziyu said with a smile: "Sometimes, the friendship between men is so strange. It doesn't take years and months of getting along to be able to trust unconditionally. If not, everyone who goes in and out of the world would not fight. It’s a so-called loyalty slogan.”
"Over the years, haven't you seen those people in the world who live for the word "loyalty"?"
Ming Yuexin responded: "That's why I don't understand the loyalty between you men. Sometimes it can even surpass everything."
Gong Ziyu smiled and said: "Maybe only men can understand this!"
Seeing this, Mingyue Xin did not continue to worry about this point, but changed her words and said: "But as you said, these two chess pieces alone can really deal with that master who is far more powerful than Zhang Sanfeng. Then This Young Master Chu’s strength and cultivation are probably beyond imagination.”
Young Master Yu nodded and said: "So after the remaining matters are dealt with, we can settle in this courtyard of Yushui City for a few years. The first one who is closer to the water will see if we can learn more about martial arts from Brother Chu. This question also prepares us for the future when we gather the golden elixir of martial arts and enter the state of divine sitting."
Finally, Gong Ziyu glanced at the chessboard in front of him. Thinking of the consecutive defeats in the game with Chu Qinghe, Gong Ziyu sighed: "It seems that I have to study chess skills carefully, otherwise, I will be too much with Brother Chu." , it is inevitable to feel guilty.”
Listening to Gong Ziyu's words, Ming Yuexin also had a slight smile on her lips.
On the other side, inside the courtyard.
After Gong Ziyu and Ming Yuexin left, Yaoyue, Jellyfish Yinji and others also gathered in the pavilion.
Huanwan was the first to ask: "Yesterday when we were in the Song Dynasty, didn't Zhou Wanfeng say that he would not interfere in Zhang Sanfeng's affairs? Why did you say today that Zhou Wanfeng might still go to Wudang to interfere in Zhang Sanfeng's affairs?"
After hearing the voice, Chu Qinghe glanced at Huanyuan and said, "You just believe what others say. Are the people from your Yinkui sect so honest?"
When these words came out, Huanwan was immediately choked.
Several other people also reacted immediately.
They are not familiar with Zhou Wanfeng themselves, and they don't know much about Zhou Wanfeng's personality and personality.
Naturally, few people knew whether Zhou Wanfeng was a gentleman of his word or a duplicitous villain.
It is indeed a bit unreasonable to believe this based on the other party's words alone.
Immediately afterwards, Lianxing said: "But Zhou Wanfeng belongs to the third prince. Brother-in-law, you secretly asked Li Chunfeng to tell Zhou Wanfeng about the dragon vein yesterday. Zhou Wanfeng did not dare to take action rashly considering the third prince behind him. Will it affect the birth of dragon veins in the land of Kyushu?"
However, as Lian Xing said, Chu Qinghe objected: "That is because the person standing behind Zhou Wanfeng is the third prince, so Zhou Wanfeng has a reason to go to Wudang."
After hearing this, several people became even more confused for a while.
Even Jellyfish Yinji and Yaoyue frowned slightly, obviously not understanding the meaning behind Chu Qinghe's words.
Then, Chu Qinghe said: "According to the information given by Li Chunfeng before, in the battle between the prince and the third prince in the Great Xia Dynasty, the third prince has the upper hand."
"And when the emperor of the Great Xia Dynasty just died, the third prince dared to take action, instead of making preparations for another three years and waiting until the prince's filial piety period was over. There can only be two reasons."
"Either the prince has secretly forced and prepared to move the third prince, forcing the third prince to resist, or the third prince is already so confident that he doesn't need to spend more time preparing."
At this time, Jellyfish Yin Ji took up the topic and said: "Being able to poison the prince directly and secretly is enough to see that there are people from the third prince around the prince. Looking at it this way, the second scenario is more likely."
After Jellyfish Yinji finished speaking, Chu Qinghe continued: "The matter of seizing the heir is no small matter. It has always been a matter of life and death. Now that the action has begun, the next actions of the third prince against the prince can only be one after another. ring."
"Normally speaking, what you want at this time is that everything is under your control."
"But the existence of dragon veins is a huge variable for both the crown prince and the third prince of the Great Xia Dynasty."
"If it were you, would you let this variable exist, or would you try to control this variable first?"
Having already talked about this, how could a few people not understand what Chu Qinghe meant.
Qu Feiyan muttered: "If it were me, I would definitely focus all my attention on getting the throne first. After everything is settled, I won't be in a hurry to deal with this dragon vein."
Yao Yue echoed: "Indeed, if the third prince already has the advantage, there is no need to focus on the dragon vein at this critical moment. Moreover, in the process, we must beware of the dragon vein becoming The prince’s help.”
Driving a dog into a back alley may result in a bite, but it can save you once and for all.
