Oracle of Terra

The black-and-white-haired man took one bite at a time, while the old man looked at his board with some annoyance.

"Oh, I still can't beat you."

"The chess skills are good, but it's not as good as that Guo's arm. He played until he died of physical and mental exhaustion. You are slick."

"After all, I don't put all my mind on playing chess, and I don't have that much time to play chess."

Losing a game is a game. If you want to win such a chessboard ghost who is immersed in the art of chess itself, the Taifu will not exaggerate himself.

"Forget it, it's boring to play chess with someone like you. I'd better find a way to beat that fierce king."

"Oh? Who can play chess?"

"No, he is cheating. As long as he understands the rules of the game, he can cheat to win."

"Since it's a game with rules, that means he cheated within the rules?"

"He can see the future, so beating him in chess is more or less interesting, but I haven't won it before. Instead, he introduced an interesting person to me, saying that he can beat me."

"Oh? It's hard to find a chess player who is stronger than the national players in Dayan."

The Tai Tuo was a little interested.

"You'd better receive your guests, I'm leaving."

After finishing speaking, that person disappeared as if he didn't exist there, leaving only a sunspot in Tianyuan exuding a strange aura.

"Grandfather, was that just now?"

"It's an antiquity, and it's an antiquity related to His Majesty."

As the apostle of Telles, Cyril Linguang could feel a wonderful connection from that man, but the connection seemed to be like a spider's thread in a strong wind, which would break when it was blown.

"Don't think about it, that's my brother."

"Sister Nian...ah no, Master Nian!"

"Whatever you call your girl, you followed that police officer surnamed Chen?"

For Maria, grandma dotes on this sensible and lovely apprentice very much, and her talent is not bad.

However, the conversation between the two of them made Ning Ciqiu's eyelids twitch, and the incarnation of the Sui Beast had also accepted apprentices. Did she know that the incarnations of the Sui Beast were all peak existences in the field, and their vision should not be ordinary. It's just that according to the information checked in the past few days, many craftsmen in Sochi have been taught this year.

"That's right, but Miss Nian, so the one just now was your brother."

"No, that's my second elder brother. My back is itchy when my elder brother listens to his words."

Nian still remembers that those in my family don't like this, but who seems to speak in a very old fashioned way?

Forget it or not, anyway, everyone will get together after a while, after all, there is a new 'brother'.

"Okay then, so the old man is?"

"Teacher Dayan, you used to be a follower when you saw him, and you followed that old lady every day with a conscientious look, but now you have completely turned into a cunning old man."

"Hello everyone, please take a seat if you don't mind."

"Um...."

When Chen heard the word Taifu, although he was a little moved, he finally sat down calmly, but Shi Huaiya opened his mouth wide, looked at the old man, and then at his friend.

"Really, stinky mouse!"

"Don't yell, the saliva is spraying on my face."

Lin Yuxia glanced at Shi Huaiya in distaste, but she would be surprised if she were to say she was surprised. As the imperial tutor, such a big man has an extraordinary status. Lin Yuxia didn't expect to alarm the current Grand Tutor, but if so...why did he seem to be aiming at Chen Huijie?

After a while, after the tables and chairs brought by some nervous servants, everyone also sat down around the stone table. The chessboard was removed, and the tea made by the old man returned.

"It's just some crude tea. I hope you don't dislike it. After all, Mr. Liang is a clean and honest person, and there are not many good teas."

"Why do I feel that you are disliking Magistrate Liang?"

"How come, it's Nian, you are here, and you are also a clone?"

"That's right, but it's crude tea, it's really bad. I'd better drink some plain water for this tea."

As she said that, she took out half a bottle of mineral water, unscrewed the lid, and started to ton, ton, so that the Taifu could only shake her head again and again. Directly pour the high-grade jade tea brewed by the teacher directly from the spout into the mouth, just like drinking white water.

Looking at the two people who don't mind, Chen is not as nervous as Shi Huaiya. After all, this Tai Tuo doesn't seem to be such a difficult person to get along with. Thinking back when the Dragon Gate node was resting for the bureaucrats in the mainland, Xingxiong was not so nervous. It is rare to show an expression of disgust. It seems that he is worthy of being the imperial tutor, but he is extraordinary.

"Then, Miss Chen, this is an old friend of mine, and it should be regarded as a gift from a friend of your ancestors."

"Is this... jade?"

He looked at the jade tablet with seal script written like a talisman.

"But you said it was my grandparents..."

"Brother Bai is your father's master, the great master of the previous generation of Tianshi Mansion. Now he has retired to Shangshu and became a potter. If you are interested, you can go and pay a visit."

"Is he still a celestial master?"

This is the first time Chen knows that, after all, the father in her memory is only left with those strict rules and a down-and-out image. After finally abandoning her, she is just a stranger. If you want to talk about the love between father and daughter , but not the slightest.

"The former chief of the Tianshi Mansion is expected to become a strong contender for the head of the next generation of Tianshi Mansion, but in the end he left the border with the Governor Wei of the Longmen, and then came back depressed, losing the high spirits of the year, and now he is just a downcast. idlers."

"You seem to think it's a pity?"

"Naturally it's a pity, that's a talent who can become a pillar of my greatness, but it's reasonable to be trapped by love and righteousness in life, so I just feel it's a pity, that's all."

"When I'm free, I'll pay a visit to that old white man."

Chen also did not refuse the kindness from the old man, and put away the jade plaque.

"Then, you should know my reason for coming, and you should also know what I did with that guy."

Chen didn't think she could hide her thoughts from the old man in front of her, or rather, she didn't want to hide her thoughts from it.

"Naturally, I know that it is a helpless move to connect you to the capital. If possible, Governor Wei of Longmen will not want you to be involved in chaos."

"he....."

Originally, he planned to criticize his uncle sharply, but when the words came to his lips, Chen found that he didn't want to speak ill of him in front of outsiders. After Tallulah came back, although he would often contradict that person, But Chen Que had more or less less estrangement with him, and it was probably because of her sister's attitude of not having much resentment and her intimacy, which affected her.

"Forget it, you continue to talk."

It seemed that he could also see the straightforward character of this Miss Chen, and the Taifu could only smile wryly, which was somewhat similar to that Bei Chenxing when he was young.

"This trip to the capital, considering the nature of the matter itself, we will arrange for you, Miss Chen, to live in your father's mansion. You shouldn't care about this matter, right?"

"................."

When Chen heard this, Chen's expression changed slightly, but he thought of the frustrated person in Wei Yanwu's story, and thought of himself and Tallulah's mother. She was also determined and wanted to confirm some things.

"I have no objection."

"That's very good. In that year, you and that aide will also temporarily stay in the mansion of Mr. Chen, and don't cause trouble in the capital."

"It's a big deal, you can arrange more people to watch, anyway, I'm too lazy to do things, you'd better watch out for my family."

"I also know that Ursas, Bolivar, and Casimir, his footprints and deeds are amazing, but it also makes me curious about what kind of waves he can make in Great Flame."

"Why do I have the feeling that you are relying on him?"

Thinking of Telles's ability to make things happen in Nian, she didn't doubt the Taifu's statement, but she felt that the old boy wanted Telles to do things in the capital.

"Hehe, your delusion, as the Grand Tutor of Dayan, I naturally hope that the weather will go well in Dayan, and the country will be peaceful and the people will be safe."

"It's a good weather, the country is peaceful and the people are safe, then you are really a lesson for all officials, but speaking of it, I chatted with the group of civil engineers in Tianshi Mansion, and your construction period is much easier than I imagined."

"That's natural. Although the evil problem has plagued the border for a long time, but also because of the help from His Excellency Lei Wen, the pressure of Dayan has not been particularly huge in these hundreds of years, but the direction of Haiyuan has changed. That's why it is necessary for the Great Celestial Master to return to the court to discuss and deal with the Haiyuan issue at the end of this year."

"Ocean..."

Nian remembered the abyss issue that Telles and Aindore had talked about. Although the statement in Dayan was somewhat different, if the abyss is active, it probably has something to do with Skadi, and the favored ones one by one Under the situation of being knocked down, the big guy in the abyss must not be able to sit still.

"Wait, after finishing the work at Yumen, you still want me to go to the beach to do it?"

"I heard that there is a consul in Sochi from the Agor Empire. To be honest, Iberia relies on the technology of the Agor people to prosper. For Dayan, the core technology of Agor has always been If possible, I hope that Miss Consul can clear up some of the doubts that plague the capable people of the Tianshi Mansion."

"I always feel that the people who make up your mind are all in Sochi?"

After thinking about it for a year, Sochi really has a lot of talents. Although some talents are from Rhodes Island, the talents it has are also extraordinary.

"I have to ask that aide, his ability to control talents can only be said to be amazing."

"Ha ha...."

When Nian thought about it, he seemed to be sent up for nothing to work for Telles in the early stage.

Is this also due to his 'good luck'?

"It's amazing, just be amazing, but you have to know, if you want me to give you one more city..."

"I understand, I have to pay more."

".........................."

This year, he started to ask himself if he wanted to ask for a price. The old man had an expression of "we are not afraid of a lot of money", which made it a little annoying.

Although there is money to take.

Afterwards, the Taifu had a little exchange with Ms. Shi Huaiya about Dayan's economic issues. It can be said that the eldest lady became very admired for this old man. I heard that he had friendship with his grandfather when he was young. After learning the real name of the Taifu, Shi Huaiya finally remembered what happened to a certain name that his grandfather often mentioned when he was a child.

"Then, should you stay here in the Liang Mansion, or go to the Xingyu Inn where your Excellency the aide is?"

"There is still an inn these days?"

From time to time, he would press it with a look of surprise, but the Casimir group of four was more yearning for the inn. How should I put it, the atmosphere inside the Liang Mansion was a bit strange.

So in the afternoon, after Chen left the team alone to visit the Master Bai with Ning Ciqiu, Shi Huaiya and others also came to Xingyu Inn together with Nian.

The branch of this inn on Yingfeng Road has also been booked out, and no one will visit except their guests.

"Come again!"

But when Shi Huaiya opened the door, it was as if a martial arts scene was staged in the inn.

The smell of fighting made Shi Huaiya feel familiar, probably because she had to watch those cavalier girls fighting back and forth on the training ground every day during her time in Casimir.

"Come on! Sister Huaihu! Cut her in the middle!"

"This is really a familiar face."

Seeing the black doctor from the detective agency, Shi Huaiya curled her lips. She used to catch him as a black doctor when she was in the Guard Bureau, and it was the detective agency sitting and drinking tea that picked him up in the end. Director.

"I said Officer Chen, don't you care about gathering people to fight?"

"This is Shangshu, and it's probably a competition."

Chen was too lazy to deal with Shi Huaiya's teasing, after all, the people sitting at the counter in the lobby should not be the guys of this Yu Inn.

"Hey, isn't this sister Yuxia and Missy, are you still staying at the hotel?"

Telles also deliberately hung a white towel on his shoulders, and looked at them with a smile. If it wasn't for the charlatan's aura, he might have thought he was a professional second-hander at the Sarkaz shop.

However, if it was the Sarkaz Inn, maybe they would kill people and steal goods.

"welcome."

The great painter Xi stood at the counter with a straight face, still wearing a set of dark green cheongsam.

"So, what are you guys doing?"

Shi Huaiya looked at an unknown film girl in the store and Huai Hu from the detective agency, who were inextricably fighting, and then looked at the two people standing at the counter pretending to be a guy and the counter.

"It's not that I have nothing to do. The shopkeeper Zheng asked the little girl in his family to come and see this place, and said that she wanted us to help polish it. As a result, she was unconvinced when she was defeated by Sister Huaihu, so I told her Come here and play the role of the little second, and my big painter will play the role of the girl at the counter, so that they can have a good time together, I have to say that Miss Du was beaten hard before, and she can come and go in the past few days."

"Huaihu, is she releasing water?"

As a senior boxer, Lin Yuxia could tell that Huaihu was sparring with Miss Du, but Telles also shrugged.

"Of course, the difference in level is still a bit big, but what you want to say, the previous fight was a festival, and now this time it is purely for learning. After leaving aside the messy things of the court, there are only some people behind this Yu Inn. The grievances and grievances of the Jianghu people are gone, and I have not received some small favors from shopkeeper Zheng, so this can be regarded as a small favor from me to help him."

"It was Huaihu who contributed. You helped me with a hammer."

"It's also helpful to build relationships, so you don't live in the Liang Mansion? But I also understand that the atmosphere there is really not good, and everyone can't let it go. That guy, Old Li, can't stand it, so he slipped over, but a few The young man didn't let him go, and they came over together. While I was chatting with Ms. Du, they started to exchange ideas, but fortunately, I had time to move the venue to fight for them, otherwise shopkeeper Zheng would have to buy tables and chairs again. "

"Your Majesty, you look at it with gusto."

"Otherwise, I like watching women fight the most."

Not paying attention to Cyril's ridicule, Telles' answer made the old knight speechless for a while. He hadn't dealt with this man for a long time, and he almost forgot his virtues.

"Okay, just choose a room card by yourself, then find a stool, knock some melon seeds, and I will make some small dishes for you to deal with. In the next few days, I will follow that Master Shen to visit the scenery of Shangshu. It will be around next week. We are going to the capital, and it will be a long journey, so let’s make preparations.”

Telles' words reminded Shi Huaiya of one thing.
