Guarding a reservoir? I am guarding the river of time!

As Lao Dao's piece fell, all the advantages in the entire chess game were on Lao Dao's side.

This divine hand directly destroyed all of Su Mu's defenses, and the veteran's winning rate was infinitely close to 100%.

The veteran deduced countless possibilities, but could not deduce a way to resolve this dilemma.

Therefore, in the eyes of the veteran, it was already a dead end and he had won.

However, the other party has not admitted defeat for a long time, and it is impossible for the veteran to rush the other party, so he waits quietly

Su Mu looked at the dead end in front of him and began to deduce, with his consciousness fully opened. In this state, Su Mu could hear the wind and grass in every corner of the river, and everything was clearly visible in his mind.

Under Su Mu's overflowing breath, the water under his feet automatically formed water curtains, began to change, and crowded around Su Mu, as if forming a throne of water, and Su Mu was the king sitting on the throne of water!

Seeing this scene, the old Taoist's pupils shrank sharply and he took a deep breath.

All the sounds around him disappeared, and in Su Mu's sight, only the chess game in front of him remained.

The next second.

The water chess game in front of Su Mu suddenly became three-dimensional in Su Mu's sight, from a two-dimensional plane to a three-dimensional one. Every move, every move, every possibility was very important. Clear.

Finally, Su Mu's eyes lit up and he deduced hundreds of ways to solve the problem.

Yes, not one kind, but hundreds of kinds!

Su Mu randomly chose a way to break the game, and with his move, the chess game came alive instantly!

After seeing Su Mu make this move, the old Taoist looked at the chess game and was stunned. He couldn't come back to his senses for a long time.

I have been planning this chess game for countless years and deduced countless ways, but I have never found a way to break the game. However, the opponent only used a dozen breaths to find the most perfect way to break the game.

With this move, the veteran has realized the gap. There is no need to play this chess game anymore. The gap is obvious. If he continues to play, he will eventually lose.

The old man took a deep breath, smiled bitterly, shook his head and said, "I admit defeat."

Hearing this, Su Mu was slightly surprised and said: "It's not over yet, you still have a chance."

After finishing speaking, the old Taoist shook his head: "No need, there is no chance anymore, I have already lost."

After a long time, the old Taoist raised his head and looked at Su Mu. After struggling for a while, he asked, "How did you deduce this method to break the situation?"

Su Mu also explained: "This is not difficult."

Later, Su Mu not only explained this method to break the situation, but also showed the veteran more than a hundred ways to break the situation.

When the old Taoist finished reading, he was also stunned.

Su Mu's move once again refreshed the veteran's cognitive outlook, and then he could only shake his head and smile bitterly.

I have been deducing for so many years but I can't deduce one. The other party only used a dozen breaths to not only find it, but even find hundreds of them.

This is the difference.

The veteran is also deeply aware of a truth: "When you stand high enough, you can see enough things."

He couldn't even deduce it himself. It was because he wasn't standing high enough that he was hit by dimensionality reduction.

And the other party stands on the long river of time. The height he stands at, looking at the world, who is higher than him?

Therefore, I was doomed to fail from the beginning.

At this time, the old Taoist took out a ball of mud, a black and gold incense burner, and three sticks of incense from his cuffs, and handed them to Su Mu.

After Su Mu took it, he looked carefully and found that the mud contained a very strange energy. This kind of energy was something Su Mu had never seen before.

The incense burner and the three green incense sticks are not simple, they both contain the same energy.

"This kind of soil has many noble and sacred names."

"But I prefer to call it 'merit soil', which is more down-to-earth."

"Your Excellency, you only need to carve the clay into your image, light the incense and insert it into the incense burner, and enshrine the sculpture. It will work wonders. You will know after you try it."

The old Taoist explained to Su Mu.

Although Su Mu didn't know what this thing was and what it did, one thing was certain, it was at least good for him. Anyway, I didn’t waste any time, so I accepted the gift.

"Your Excellency, I won't interrupt you and take my leave."

The veteran's voice was very low and weak.

Seeing this, Su Mu stopped him: "Wait a minute."

Hearing this, the old Taoist turned around and asked, "Your Excellency, are you not satisfied with this gift?"

"That's not true, the gift is okay."

"Tell me what kind of help you plan to ask me for. Tell me."

Upon hearing these words, the old Taoist's eyes lit up, and he took out a strange-shaped, palm-sized black stone from his cuff: "This is what I want to ask you for your help."

"In the future, there will be a huge black turtle that will cross the river."

"If you see it, please throw this stone on the back of that turtle and let it take it away."

"If you haven't seen it, just throw this stone away as garbage. If you like it, I can give it to you."

Hearing this, Su Mu was also stunned.

So simple?

"Okay, it's a small thing."

He thought it was a big favor. He had said this earlier, giving himself some reward or something, and he had helped. As for going to all the trouble to play a game of chess with him?

After seeing Su Mu agree so readily, the old Taoist was a little flattered.

"But, I just lost."

"For me, it's just a piece of cake." Su Mu replied with a smile.

Hearing this, the old Taoist was stunned, holding the whisk with both hands, bowed heavily to Su Mu, and performed a solemn Taoist ceremony.

"Thank you very much."

"By the way, what's your name?" Su Mu thought of something and asked the old Taoist.

"Jiang Qing." The old Taoist replied.

"You were also called this name? It seems not, right?"

Su Mu didn't remember what happened after he got drunk last time, but after saying his name, he still recalled some of it.

"Last time I came, I was called Jiang Yuan, this time I'm called Jiang Qing."

The old Taoist replied with a smile.

Because the last time I came, it was the first life, and this time, it was the second life, so of course the name is different.

"What do you plan to call yourself next time?" Su Mu also joked.

"Next time."

"I haven't decided yet."

The old Taoist had a look of nostalgia on his face, because he didn't know whether he could successfully survive the disaster of this life.

"By the way, is this old blue cow your spiritual pet?"

Su Mu thought of something, pointed at the old blue cow on the shore, and asked.
