The fairy is fierce

Chapter 18 Playing Chess

thunderbolt

The dazzling lightning flashed across the sea of ​​gloomy clouds, and large raindrops rolled down, hitting the muddy ground and forming a stream. The muddy mud was washed away, revealing an old man in linen robes and an old bronze sword stuck at his side.

Why aren't you dead yet...

Lao Lu was covered in blood, lying in the mud, looking at the dark sky, with deep confusion in his eyes.

When he was young, Lao Lu felt that he was favored by God and that God wanted him to do something big, so that he could turn danger into safety every time he was in desperate situations.

But now he is old and frail, his mood is ruined, he no longer wants to practice swordsmanship, and he will not die when he is about to die. God allows him to live, but does not give him a way to live. What does it mean?

Don't you want to be freed so easily?

Lao Lu thought like this, and recalled the extremely beautiful past. For him who now had nothing, he didn't dare to think about the past. The more he thought about it, the more he felt that he was nothing.

The ground around me was shaking, but there was no outsider to disturb me, and there was no distinction between day and night. I don't know how long this thought lasted, until the soft sound of wings flapping came from the distance.

Puff puff puff

Lao Lu looked out of the corner of his eye and saw a white bird flying from the rain curtain and landing on the hilt of the Huangquan Sword. It lowered its head and looked at him with bright black eyes, "Chichi!" he shouted, although he couldn't understand it. Birds singing, but I can roughly understand the meaning:

"The birds are looking for you everywhere, but you are sleeping here. Do you know how far the birds have flown? Huh?"

Under the wash of rain, the khaki fluffy wings disguised by Tuanzi turned white again, like a wet white chicken. Although the old man felt that he could not eat enough, he still opened the wings with the intention of giving it a try. The beak asks for errand fees.

The earth-shattering sword strike that Old Lu wielded in the Fire Scythe Valley had already squeezed out the last bit of energy from his body. Even if no one came to help him, he would have to rest for several years afterwards. What's more, with the power of the jade shattering, even he could He was exposed to the strike range, and his injuries were so severe that even breathing felt like torture.

However, compared with the mental torture, the physical pain is nothing. After traveling alone for thousands of miles, Lao Lu has long been accustomed to this. He slowly sat up, looked at the little bird on the top of the sword hilt, thought about it, and touched it from his sleeve. A wild fruit with rich aura came out and was thrown to Tuanzi.

Tuanzi's slight dissatisfaction immediately disappeared. After performing three mouthfuls and one fruit, he pointed his wings to the south and signaled Lao Lu to come over.

With a spiritual bird beside him, Lao Lu finally broke free from the torment of his soul and looked at the surrounding world.

He was on the shore of a large lake, and the towering mountain peak could no longer be seen; the lake surface was in the shape of a yin and yang fish, with a stone embankment in the middle, which was obviously artificially built. Some broken walls of ancient buildings could also be seen on the lakeside. There is a small temple in the wall.

What the hell place...

Lao Lu is not too old to practice Taoism. In the eyes of the ancestors such as Shangguan Yutang, he is actually a leader of the younger generation like Zuo Lingquan and Shangguan Lingye. However, he has also been in Central Continent for half his life. I have been to every corner, but I don’t remember such a place in Central Continent.

When I was young, I traveled around and entered many secret realms by mistake, but this was the first time I saw a secret realm that was about to collapse.

After scanning for a week, Lao Lu used his sword as a crutch and staggered to the ruined temple by the lake, which was still intact. He looked up and saw that it was exactly the same as the mountain where Zuo Lingquan was, and it also enshrined a big-antlered deer.

Tuanzi felt that Quanquan was cooing with the nanny, so he was not in a hurry to go back. He landed on the head of the big-horned deer, spread his wings in the shape of a phoenix, which roughly means:

"Niaoniao also wants to make a statue like this, do you think it's appropriate?"

Tuanzi was blessed by heaven, and not even Shangguan Ancestor could see the truth at a glance, let alone Lao Lu.

As a native of Central China, Lao Lu knew that the statue in front of him represented that god, and he gently raised his hand and said:

"Come down quickly. This is the statue of the Lord of Central Continent. You stand on it and jump around on his head. If you piss me off, I can't stop you."

Tuanzi wasn't even afraid of the Lord of Central Continent, so how could he be afraid of a big stone that had long lost its spiritual consciousness? However, it saw that Lao Lu respected it, so it still flew down.

The five elements of Lao Lu are close to the earth, and the fairy sword Huangquan in his hand is the fairy weapon embryo that has been buried under the earth for countless years and gave birth to the sword spirit on its own. In order to cultivate a serious fairy weapon, Lao Lu has traveled all over the world, all in Looking for opportunities for magic weapons related to the soil of the Five Elements, he knows much more about this than ordinary monks.

Lao Lu walked around the ruined temple, and gradually figured out the doorway of this place from some strokes and ancient characters.

I remember that when he first got the Underworld Sword, in order to find the heavenly materials and earthly treasures related to the land of the Five Elements, the first thing he thought of was the local god Qilin in Central Continent.

I once looked around and looked through ancient books, and in the ancient books in the palace of Caiyi Kingdom in the north, I found a book called "Mountains and Rivers Miracles", which recorded various messy legends, including records about Qilin.

It is said that the sand sea of ​​Zhongzhou was an oasis in ancient times. The Lord of Zhongzhou, who transformed into a seven-colored deer, used it as his lair and was worshiped by all people with incense.

Colorful deer, like ordinary deer, will change their antlers, but only once every thousand years.

The antlers of the Seven-Colored Deer are of the same high grade as the wings of the Stealing Pill and the dragon scales of the East. Dragon scales and wings can be used to refine immortal weapons, such as the basalt shield and dragon scale skirt carried by the Shangguan Ancestor. An opportunity brought by God; the special thing about deer antlers is that they can also be used medicinally.

The Lord of the Five Elements, the deer antlers of the Lord of the Central Continent, are used as medicine to refine the body. The effect is not an exaggeration to describe it as a rebirth. If it is refined into a natal object, it will be one level lower than the Four Seas Dragon Kings and the Five Beasts of the Great Heavenly Official. The natal earth is directly perfect, and there is no need to worry about it in this life.

After seeing the record, Lao Lu naturally came to the sand sea to look for it with great interest. It’s a pity that the past oasis has long become the Dead Sea today after thousands of years of vicissitudes. Later, from some oral stories, it was learned that the Lord of the Central Continent was always disturbed and moved away, leaving only an empty nest, which was called the "Qilin Cave".

It’s not a bad thing that the Lord of the Central Continent left. At least the cultivators don’t have to worry about being trampled to death by the gods if they enter rashly. There may be some natural treasures left in the nest. Not to mention deer antlers and deer whips, even if there is a deer hair left, it is the deer hair of the Lord of the Central Continent. It’s not easy to refine a magic weapon.

It's a pity that no one has found any traces for thousands of years, and the legend has become nonsense. Lao Lu didn't find it in the end, and thought it was a fabricated rumor.

But the place where he is now is very similar to the Qilin Cave in the legend.

Lao Lu held the hilt of the sword with both hands, looked at the gradually crumbling world outside the temple, and said unexpectedly:

"Is this the Qilin Cave Heaven?"

This sentence was considered to be talking to himself, and he didn't want to get a response from Tuanzi.

But Tuanzi was very polite and answered every question. "Jiji." Two sounds, as if saying: "It used to be, but now it's the territory of birds."

Lao Lu was quite excited when he got the confirmation, but after a moment, he shook his head and sighed:

"If you plant flowers with care, they won't bloom, but if you plant willows without care, they will grow into shade. Now that you have found the deer antlers, what can you do? If you extend your life for another 500 years, you will have to suffer for another 500 years."

"Ji~" Tuanzi opened his beak, indicating that you don't need to find it to feed the birds.

Old Lu thought about it and it was true. He also had a useless disciple who was called "the two poles of the wilderness" together with the Lord of the Wilderness Mountain. If he didn't want to leave the opportunity to his descendants, he could not just turn a blind eye to it.

Thinking of this, Old Lu pulled up the tattered hat on his back and covered his head. Together with Tuanzi, he stepped into the dark world with heavy rain.

As for where to find it, Old Lu didn't have a clear direction. Looking for opportunities has always been like this. If you are lucky, you can meet it. If you are unlucky, no matter how much you talk, it will be in vain. When you come to such a place, no matter how high your realm is, you have to follow your feelings like Xie Qiutao.

As a small world created by the gods, Qilin Cave is not as vast as the small world that Qinglong pulled Zuo Lingquan into, but it is also larger than the artificial small world such as Tietou Cave. Just by visual estimation, it is probably thousands of miles in radius.

Old Lu was seriously injured and walked slowly, but no one dared to come in easily, so he was not in a hurry. He walked and looked, looking for clues of the Qilin's nest.

But the people outside did not dare to come in for the time being, but it did not mean that they were the only living people here.

After walking with Tuanzi for an unknown period of time, Old Lu came to the foot of a collapsed hill.

The hill seemed to be smashed by something falling from the sky, and its original appearance could no longer be seen, but between the soil and gravel, many weathered sand grains and broken branches of peach trees that can only be found in the desert could be seen.

"Lin Zifeng?"

Old Lu's expression changed slightly, holding the hilt of the sword and coming forward, quickly exploring the collapsed hill, and finally found a round pit among the ruins.

There were some rags of clothes and bloodstains at the bottom of the pit, but the body that should have been lying in it had disappeared...——

Pah pah pah

The raindrops were like soybeans, hitting the heavy stone wall, making a crisp sound like jade beads falling on a plate.

Zuo Lingquan and Shangguan Lingye sat outside the dilapidated building that should have been the main hall of the sect, leaning against the columns, looking at the magnificent picture outlined by the lightning in the sky.

The ancient sect built on the mountain was not small. After Tuanzi left, Zuo Lingquan and Shangguan Lingye walked around the sect together, thinking of searching for some lost ancient objects or something.

Unfortunately, the traces left by people cannot withstand the erosion of endless years, such as formations and books. The only thing that can prove the former glory is these broken stones that can be seen everywhere.

Some buildings in the sect can still be recognized, such as the Cangjian Pavilion and the Zushi Hall, but they have all collapsed, leaving only the roadbed. The objects for cultivation that can be found are just blocks that cannot be seen in their original appearance.

After the two walked around, they found nothing, so they lost interest and chose a place to shelter from the rain, waiting for the world to return to stability.

As the sky collapsed and the earth collapsed, the spiritual energy changed strangely and the eight directions were in chaos. Mobilizing the spiritual energy of heaven and earth at will may bring about an immeasurable chain reaction. For safety reasons, the two people did not sit cross-legged to practice qi. What they could do now was to lean together to drink and chat to kill the boring time that was not too long.

Thunderclouds were dense, like thousands of thunder dragons patrolling in the sea of ​​clouds; heavy rain was like a waterfall, and the crisp crackling sound became the music played by heaven and earth. Under this situation, the artistic conception was very suitable for drinking.

The small wine table with mahogany texture was placed between two corridors, with a black and white chessboard on it.

There was a red carpet on the ground. The disguise had lost its meaning. The beautiful woman in the phoenix skirt who had changed back to the gorgeous palace dress lazily supported her side face with her hands, leaned on the small table, holding the white piece in her hand, turning it between her five fingers and playing with it.

Zuo Lingquan finally pulled off his beard that was in the way when he licked Wanwan, and returned to his gentle and elegant appearance as a nobleman. He held the black chess piece in his right hand and the wine bowl in his left hand, sitting beside the small wine table, with a confident look on his face, and placed a chess piece on the chessboard.

Snap

"Five pieces in a row, Madam Concubine, you lose again."

After saying that, he smiled and looked at the beauty in palace dress opposite him.

Shangguan Lingye's cheeks were flushed, his eyebrows were slightly furrowed, and he looked slightly dissatisfied. He stared at the chess game for a moment and put the white piece into the chess basket:

"It's boring. The art of playing chess is broad and profound, and one can get a glimpse of human nature in the smallest details. It is one of the compulsory courses in the sect. But the sect will not teach such children to play. If we have the ability, can we really play a game?"

Zuo Lingquan has practiced martial arts since he was a child. At best, he is devoted to swordsmanship. At worst, he is not doing his job properly. He is not good at playing chess, calligraphy and painting. He is no match for Shangguan Lingye in real chess. He said seriously:

"Those who are cultivating must be willing to accept defeat. The queen offered to play chess to kill time. I said to play backgammon, and the queen agreed. She said that to add some bonus, she would take off one piece of clothing every time she lost. The queen also confidently agreed, but now she has to break her promise. Can’t do it?”

"..."

There was a hint of reluctance in Shangguan Lingye's beautiful eyes, but in the end he did not make a mistake. He slightly bent his legs and put his hands under the hem of his skirt, rustling.

Zuo Lingquan's eyes were not filled with any evil thoughts, and he stared at Shangguan Lingye's skirt seriously. Unfortunately, Shangguan Lingye was not happy about losing and didn't want to show it to him. The skirt was tightly covered. After a while, he took out a piece of curled skirt. The black stockings that he picked up were thrown on his chest:

"continue."

Zuo Lingquan took the black stockings with the lingering warmth and fragrance, resisted the urge not to smell them, put them beside him, shook his head and said:

"Toffee Princess, we agreed to take off one piece of clothing at a time. You take off your shoes first, then your socks..."

Shangguan Lingye raised his eyes: "Have you ever said you can't take off from the inside out? There are so many things to do. If you don't like it, you won't stop."

"Hey, that's not what I meant, keep going."

Zuo Lingquan swept the chess pieces into the chess basket with an indescribable smile in his eyes. After all, both socks were gone. If he lost again, even if he took them off from the inside out, he would still be taking off pantyhose or panties with very little material. He wanted to see where Shangguan Lingye dared to start.

Black and white moves, two or three moves in a blink of an eye.

Zuo Lingquan was already confident of winning, but as he continued to play, he felt something was wrong. His opponent's chess skills had become stronger, and he was not fooled. He could see through his three-character continuum that concealed murderous intent at a glance.

Zuo Lingquan concentrated, no longer took it lightly, and began to plan seriously, hoping to lure Shangguan Lingye into the trap he had carefully arranged; if he were not playing backgammon, judging from his immovable and calm temperament, he would really look like an expert. Young national players playing chess.

Shangguan Lingye has been very smart since he was a child. He was born in a wealthy fairy family and is in charge of the Demon Hunting Department. He has already become proficient in this kind of self-cultivation and intelligence training, not to mention a hundred years of experience. If she doesn't want to lose, how can she lose? A young boy less than twenty years old had just given Zuo Lingquan a taste of something sweet. If he loses again, he will have to take off the real thing. There will be no way to let him go.

But it is a pity that backgammon does not rely on cultivation to fight. The rules are too simple for practitioners. Zuo Lingquan is not a stupid person. If both of them are serious, it will not be easy to decide the winner.

The two of them spent most of the day attacking and defending, trying to fill up the chessboard, and finally the game ended in a draw.

Shangguan Lingye looked at the full chessboard and threw the chess pieces into the basket:

"A draw, what's the calculation now?"

According to the rules, a tie is a tie, and the two people should start a new round.

But Zuo Lingquan felt that it was not easy to win against Shangguan Lingye again, so he put down the chess piece and looked at the enchanting beauty opposite:

"If we don't win or lose, it won't be a waste of time. Otherwise, we'll all lose. Let's all take off one piece. It's fair and just."

As he spoke, he untied his robe and placed it next to him. ? ?

Shameless...

Shangguan Lingye was stunned. She didn't expect Zuo Lingquan to come up with such a shameless suggestion. She picked up the wine bowl and took a sip, saying displeasedly:

"You have a beautiful idea. I haven't lost, so why should I take it off?"

"Your Majesty, you didn't win either? As monks of our generation, if we don't do meaningless things, we're just like thieves who don't leave empty-handed. We have to leave something behind, don't you think?"

This is not unreasonable.

But Shangguan Lingye only had a few clothes on her body, and it would be inappropriate to take them off anywhere. How could she agree? She hummed softly:

"Either you start over, or you stop playing."

Zuo Lingquan shook his head seriously and said seriously:

"My Highness, the most taboo thing for practitioners is to leave knots in their hearts. I don't want to see your Majesty take off her clothes. I just feel that your Majesty must keep her word, so as not to recall this matter in the future and feel that she is indebted and that her thoughts cannot be understood..." …”

Jiliguala...

Shangguan Lingye saw Zuo Lingquan telling lies with his eyes open, and wanted to splash him with wine, but she couldn't do such a move. After being nagged for a while, she seemed to have no choice, and put down the wine bowl heavily, holding her hand The child reached into the lapel of his clothes. !

Zuo Lingquan paused for a moment, then sat upright, ready for battle.

Shangguan Lingye put his hand into the phoenix skirt and found Zuo Lingquan staring intently, frowning and said:

"What are you looking at?"

"hehe……"

Zuo Lingquan coughed lightly, picked up the wine bowl, and looked away.

But the moment he looked away, he heard a "click" in his ears, as if the frenulum was being torn.

Zuo Lingquan quickly turned his head, only to see a piece of thin black cloth flying towards his face, blocking his sight. It had a faint fragrance, with a refreshing milky fragrance. ! !

Zuo Lingquan's heart moved, and he quickly pulled down the cloth on his face, and looked at the concubine opposite, only to see Shangguan Lingye sitting sideways by the small case, putting his hands behind his neck to tie the rope, and the bulging hem of his clothes was completely intact. , there are no wrinkles at all, let alone the appearance of spring, and the movements are incredibly fast.

"So fast?! No... How can you put it on again after taking it off? This is against the rules."

"What's the point of you saying that I'm already dressed? Who told you not to tell me in advance?"

Shangguan Lingye's tone was calm, but his face was still flushed, whether it was because of the alcohol or something else.

Zuo Lingquan was too slow, and he couldn't blame Shangguan Lingye for this. He lowered his head and glanced at the silky black carp in his hand. He could still feel a little residual warmth. The edge had hollow lace, and it was a set with stockings. Even if he didn't wear it on, he could feel the charm of wearing it on his body.

Games are games. Shangguan Lingye is a girl who has not yet enjoyed the pleasure of men and women. It's okay for her socks to be taken away. It's not the first time, but giving this underwear to Zuo Lingquan, she can't help but feel a little embarrassed and angry.

Shangguan Lingye wanted to accept the loss and turn her head away, but after thinking about it carefully, she felt that it was wrong to take off her clothes after losing, and she didn't say that she had to give her clothes to the other party after losing. Why did she throw it to Zuo Lingquan?

Thinking of this, Shangguan Lingye raised his hand to take Huajianli back.

But no matter how much Zuo Lingquan liked it, he would not watch and appreciate it carefully in front of Shangguan Lingye. After a glance, he threw all the things around him into Linglong Pavilion as if he was cleaning up miscellaneous items, and began to clean up the chess pieces:

"Keep going, this time we agreed in advance that you can't put it on again after taking it off, otherwise it would be cheating."

Even if it's a tie, Shangguan Lingye has to take it off together. If Shangguan Lingye continues to play chess, he will really drink with Zuo Lingquan naked. How can he agree? He shook his head decisively and said:

"It's boring, I won't play anymore."

Zuo Lingquan was in high spirits and couldn't let his opponent escape at the last minute. He tried to persuade Shangguan Lingye to continue playing chess with him.

But after a while of soft and hard persuasion, Shangguan Lingye had not changed his mind. Zuo Lingquan suddenly found that a thunderbolt fell below the cliff, making a loud bang.

Boom

The thunder was very close, and it seemed to have hit something, which was completely different from other thunderbolts far away in the sky.

Both of them looked grimly, and looked towards the dark rain curtain outside the mountain...
