Rivers and lakes in another world

Chapter 390 Watching Chess
For these people who squat outside Xingluo Villa every day, the greatest interest every day is to wait here for the new chess game that Pang Yiqing arranges.

Many of the people who can be here are well-known chess players in Beiyan. The love of their lives is to play chess. Everyone is a chess idiot, and they feel uncomfortable without chess.

If they are not allowed to play chess, it is probably the same as killing them.

And Pang Yiqing loved playing chess all his life. It can be said that he is a national player in Beiyan. Many chess players regard Pang Yiqing as their idol.

So every day, there are many chess players waiting in Xingluo Villa, just to watch the new chess game arranged by Pang Yiqing.

Everyone researched, discussed, and even broke the situation with their own hands.

Those high-grade papers brought out by the servants will be hung on frames that have been set up one by one by the servants for the chess players to watch, and then the guests are free to watch.

Even if someone has an itchy hand and wants to play chess, there is nothing wrong with it.

These servants already have Pang Yiqing's layout method in their hands, as long as they follow the book and what kind of routines the chess players follow, these servants will follow the book and there will be no problem.

Of course, if this chess game is broken successfully, there will naturally be a chance to play blindfold chess with Pang Yiqing, and then it is possible to face-to-face with Beiyan, the national player.

This is the reason why these chess players have been coming to Xingluo Villa over the years. As a chess player, it is really a pity that you have never played against a national level player in your life.

Not only chess players from Beiyan, but also many chess players from other countries have heard of Pang Yiqing's reputation and come to experience it.

There were even people with almost the same status as Pang Yiqing came to challenge.

It is said that there is no first in literature and no second in martial arts.Naturally, there are people who want to make a difference in this game of chess.

Therefore, many people came to challenge the chess game, and one of them immediately started to break the chess game.

It's just that some people have relatively high chess skills and can successfully crack it, while some people have poor vision and can't see through the chess game at the first time. In the end, they can only look at the chess and sigh.

These people often have high self-esteem, thinking that they have more than 6, but their real skills are not enough. Not only did they fail to crack the chess game, but they made themselves feel dizzy and have a splitting headache, so they had to end in embarrassment.

This is exactly what Yan Xuelan and others came to see.The time is just right.

Because most of the people who come here are chess players or scholars, even if they are accompanied by apprentices or guards, they will not have so many followers.

But Yan Xuelan's team now looks like there are no fewer than a hundred people.

Moreover, the cultivation bases of each of them are not low. Looking around, almost all of them are warriors in the Zhoutian Realm.

For a warrior with a high status in a county to be a personal guard, the status of the visitor must be high.

What's more, there are so many women, it's not easy, they must be either rich or expensive.

The family members of Xingluo Villa are not simple, many of them are old people when Pang Yiqing was in the officialdom. When he was young, he worked as a guard for Pang Yiqing. When he was older, he retired early to follow Pang Yiqing and do some leisure work.

There are many people who are soldiers, and they can feel that the portrait girl has the same aura as them. It is a manifestation of bloodthirsty iron-blooded evil spirit, which is absolutely unmistakable.

Moreover, the level of cultivation is still so high, which really makes it difficult for them to rest assured. On the surface, they are calm, but these servants are secretly vigilant.

"Who's here?" A servant yelled at Yan Xuelan and the others with confidence.

Before Yan Xuelan said anything, Luan Fengwei was unwilling, heh, how dare a little servant talk to them like that?Don't know the identity of the princess?
A few soft voices sounded: "Bold!" "Presumptuous!"

Accompanied by the coquettish shout, the servant who spoke before felt a series of eyes full of murderous intent staring at him, as if he was about to cut himself off.

Goosebumps could not help but appear on the bones of his body, he felt cold all over his body, and cold sweat immediately appeared on his forehead.

It was the few Luanfeng guards who spoke before secretly using martial arts to suppress people.

Due to the growth of age, this servant's cultivation base has declined a bit, and he is only in the late stage of Luck Realm. It is difficult to face the aura of a Zhou Tian Realm warrior, let alone several of them.

But soon someone helped him out of the predicament.

I saw Yan Xuelan's dissatisfaction on her face, she looked at the few Luanfengwei who spoke and said, "I forgot what I told you when I came here? Huh?"

"Yes, Your Highness, we know our mistake." Several soldiers of Luanfeng Guard immediately admitted their mistake.

"Your Highness?" The servants around were all dumbfounded. What kind of Highness, could you just scold the servants in the old master's mansion at will.

Then these people realized that today's Beiyan can be called His Royal Highness and can go out at will. He is surrounded by female guards and is a woman. There is only one person in the entire Beiyan, and that is Beiyan's eldest princess Yan Xuelan. The apple of the eye of the current Emperor Yan, Yan Chaohui.

They don't know the character of Her Majesty the Princess, but they know very well about His Majesty Emperor Yan's doting.

Once a disciple of a sect accidentally bumped into Yan Xuelan in Yanjing. At that time, Yan Xuelan was just a baby. In addition, since she was young, she was very delicate and her skin was broken.

The little baby didn't have too many thoughts, she just started crying when she felt pain, and couldn't be coaxed.

Before the accompanying guards protecting the princess could make a move, they felt a strong murderous aura pervading the air, and then a thunderous palm descended rapidly, directly beating the disciple into a puddle of flesh.

It left a deep palm print on the road.

In Yanjing, which is also the capital of Beiyan, Emperor Yan will always have some special means. The Emperor Yan, who is usually busy with everything, will take action as soon as he feels his baby girl crying. One can imagine his doting on Yan Xuelan Now, maybe all the other children together are not as important as Yan Xuelan.

If Emperor Yan knew that he had scolded the princess and his party just now, he would probably have to skin off himself even if he did not die.

There was more cold sweat on the faces of these servants, and they wanted to plead guilty, but Yan Xuelan stopped them.

"Okay, everyone, my person was rude just now. I would like to apologize to you all. I hope you don't take it to heart. I am here to pay a visit to the old master. I wonder if you can introduce him to us?" Yan Xue Lan spoke.

When the family servants heard Yan Xuelan apologize to them, their affection for Yan Xuelan suddenly rose in their hearts, and they felt warm in their hearts. However, they soon encountered difficulties, because Pang Yiqing still set rules at home, and those who came from afar The guests will only meet with them after they have cracked the chess game and blindfolded chess.

After all, Pang Yiqing is getting older and needs a lot of rest. What he wants now is to enjoy his old age in peace instead of disturbing his quiet old age life for some shabby officialdom affairs.

It’s okay if chess friends meet each other, but I just found a reason to reject the invitation of some caring people, and I don’t want to let myself be lost at the end of the day. As I grow older, maybe he will still be there in ten years of this age, and in the next ten years. Just can't say.

The servants felt bitter. Let’s tell a lie. Neither Yan Xuelan nor her master will be satisfied. But if I tell the truth, I’m afraid that the princess will be abrupt.

In the end, the servants gritted their teeth and chose to tell the truth, "I have met Her Highness the Princess. It is our great blessing that Her Highness the Princess can come to Xingluo Villa. However, our master has already made a rule. If you want to enter Xingluo Villa, You have to break the chess game and then play blind chess. Only those who break these two levels in a row can face the master, and there is nothing we can do."

Yan Xuelan nodded and said: "So that's the case. Since it's the rules set by the old grand master, I naturally have to abide by them when I come to pay a visit. How about this, Cheng Dieyi, Chen Zheng, Xiao Yan, and Bei Li, you The four followed me in, and the others stayed on the spot, not to cause trouble."

"Yes, Your Highness."

Then Yan Xuelan took four people to follow in the footsteps of the servant, and went to watch the chess game.

Xiao Yan's injury has healed a lot under the action of the medicine at this time, and she can already walk on the ground, and she is also beginning to try to fuse the first kind of flame, which is a kind of strange beast, the flame bird's beast fire, which can It can be used to fight the enemy, and it can also be used to refine alchemy and medicine. It can be said that it can serve multiple purposes.

It's just that it hasn't been successful yet. During the fusion, when the fire seed is completely fused successfully, the fire spirit body will officially wake up, and Xiao Yan's cultivation level can finally increase.

And Beili is a good seed that Yan Xuelan found in Luanfengwei.

If you just look at it from the outside, no one would think that this cute-looking little loli with twin ponytails, dimples, and canine teeth is a violent element.

It was very cruel from the very beginning, even Chen Zheng, who had been in and out of the torture room many times, couldn't stand the cruelty. The imagery was too strong.

Sure enough, many lolis are fans and black, and they can't be provoked.

Although Beili looks like a loli from the outside, it is said that it has something to do with her family. The genetic problem cannot be solved with medication, but later on, Beili didn't think about solving it. He is extremely satisfied with his appearance. .

Because of the violent factors lurking in her body, Beili became a warrior, and she was also a fan of Yan Xuelan.

It has reached the level of obsession with Dalian. The fundamental reason is that Beili once saw Yan Xuelan in military uniform from a distance. It was a hunting activity of the royal family. Beili was serving as a guard at that place. After all, some royal women or It is where His Majesty's harem is located, and most of them are women or eunuchs.

Because of the right angle, I happened to see Yan Xuelan, and then Beili fell in love at first sight!

When it came time to select escorts for Yan Xuelan, she squeezed herself in just to observe her idol up close.

Hard work paid off, and Bei Li successfully became a member of Luan Feng Guard.

When she was in Yanjing, she hadn't developed much, and she was not obvious in Luanfengwei.They are all engaged in simple training, guards, patrols and other work.

But after leaving Yanjing, Beili's performance became more and more prominent.

Especially in many successive battles, Beili has shown a very strong fighting quality. It can be said that he has brought his stability and ruthlessness to the extreme. He was quickly promoted and was selected as one of Yan Xuelan's personal guards. a member of

Even in a battle, in order to help Yan Xuelan resist the enemy's attack, she forced her own abdomen to be pierced in exchange for Yan Xuelan's safety and death.

Thanks to Luan Fengwei's excellent medical skills, he saved his life.

Naturally, Beili Yan Xuelan also valued it very much.

Now Xie Nongqi is not staying in Luanfeng City to train the army.

Beili, who was at the peak of Zhou Tianjing, temporarily became Xie Nongqi's successor.

As soon as Yan Xuelan and the others came near the chessboard with the frame hanging, they sat down and waited.

When Chen Zheng saw the densely packed chess pieces, he felt a pain in his head. If it was backgammon, Chen Zheng might go up and play a few times, but if it was go, let alone play it, he couldn’t even read it. Distinguish between black and white two colors, alas, really suffered a cultural loss.

It was very good when Yan Xuelan and others arrived. The chess game of this quarter has ended. Unfortunately, few people present successfully cracked it.

The servants put up a second picture according to today's master's instructions, ready for everyone to observe for a while, and then choose whether to challenge or not.

On Yan Xuelan's side, there are servants waiting by the side at any time. Yan Xuelan has just watched the chess game a few times, and she already knows it in her heart.

He asked the servant beside him, "Is there anything special about playing chess?"

The servant lowered his head and replied: "If you go back to Your Highness, no, Your Highness will participate in this round of chess game solving? Do you want to observe a little longer?" The servant reminded kindly.

Yan Xuelan shook her head and said: "No need, I have confidence, you go get someone to prepare, I will go up and break the chess game."

The servant didn't hesitate, since it was the princess' order, there was no problem, and they had no right to refuse.

Prepare yourself.

And Chen Zheng also asked in a low voice: "You really know how to play chess?"

Yan Xuelan was surprised: "Of course, the study skills of piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, people who are similar to me have to practice hard, how could they not? Are you worried that I can't solve this chess game? Relax It will open your eyes."

Chen Zheng was silent, it turned out that this was also a child of someone else's family, forget it, Yan Xuelan is so talented, it's not uncomfortable for him to compare with her, let's just watch.

Then the servant on the other side quickly took out the chess piece, holding the book given by Pang Yiqing in his hand.

Anyone who has been here for a long time knows that this is a servant who only appears when someone wants to crack the chess game.

It's only just come up, probably within a few minutes, and someone is about to come to break the game?It's really scary.
