Seeking Immortality

Just when the nine-tailed demon fox was killed, Xu Qingfan rushed to the black giant mountain, and Feng Qingtian, who had disappeared for a long time, came to the southern wilderness for some reason. On the shore of the East China Sea, there was another story, but it also had a profound impact on China. The future of Haotu will have a great impact, at least, it will have a great impact on Xu Qingfan in the near future.

On the beach at the edge of the East China Sea, there were two old men sitting cross-legged on both sides of a chess game, twisting the chess pieces vertically and horizontally.

One of the two old men was dressed in luxurious purple clothes. They were tall and elegant. They had white eyebrows and beards, and their faces were red. They were as graceful as immortals. Their eyes were soft, but their faces were full of majesty.

The other old man was dressed in black, with an old face and a stooped figure. He was holding a long green skull staff in one hand. Although under the sun, his face was invisible, and his whole body seemed to be wrapped in some kind of black mist.

A hundred feet away from the two elders, there were dozens of monks in black standing, nervously watching the game between the two elders. ^^^^

The two old men didn't know how long they had been playing chess again, but they were still concentrating and staring intently at the chessboard in the middle.

At this time, the trend on the chessboard is still very obvious.

Ziyi Lao's chess game is as dignified as an army confronting each other, with every step of the way and a far-reaching layout. It seems to be a battle of strength, but it is still delicate. Every step he takes must have a clear purpose and countless back-up moves. He is strong in the middle and is good at one glance. During the battle between Guanzi and Guanzi, the white stones he held formed a long dragon in the middle, which could not be restrained and seemed to swallow up the black stones around it one by one.

However, the old man in black's chess game is extremely strange. He has clearly reached a game of five consecutive stars, but he has accumulated a large number of chess pieces around the chessboard. Although he is good at fighting in small areas, and his attacks are fierce and fierce, he is missing one. A view of the overall situation. ^^^^ At the beginning, they had the upper hand with their sharp offensive, but after the Bai Zi Changlong formed, they were already defeated.

Looking at people from the perspective of chess, comparing the two, the old man in black undoubtedly fell into the inferior category.

After the old man in black struggled for a few more steps, he finally dropped the chess piece in his hand and sighed: "The younger generation is terrible, I lost."

Ziyi Lao smiled and said: "How dare you compare with the seniors? The juniors are lucky. The seniors just accept the concession."

The old man in black shook his head and said: "You have a very good chess game. Although they seem to be the most common and common moves, these step-by-step moves are often the most difficult to break and cannot be moved by the opponent. Don't be swayed by a temporary defeat === Just try to use tricks, but when the trend is established, no one can stop it. "

The old man in purple clothes said: "Senior is joking. In the eyes of the younger generation, there is no winner or loser in Go. The black and white sides have their own strategies to enclose the territory. Although there are fights with each other during the period. But whether it is the white piece that captures the black piece, or the Or black stones capture white stones. In the end, no matter whether the number of white stones is dominant or the number of black stones is dominant, when the game is over, both black and white are still on the chessboard, and no one loses. Take this game of chess as an example, the predecessor’s black stones are dominant. Although he lost a few eyes to the juniors, there is still room for Kuroko to exist on this edge, isn't it? "

The old man in black thought for a moment. He nodded slowly. Said: "Yes, the black stones actually have some space for existence. It is enough for them. However, after all, the white stones are stronger and have the advantage. This chess game is over. Who knows what the white stones will be in the next game. Wouldn't you kill all the black stones? It's rare to see only white stones left in a game of chess, but it may not happen. What's more, if the person holding the white stones can really kill all the black stones on the chessboard, it will be something to show off. The local events will be recorded in the history books and will be remembered for generations to come. *****"

Ziyi Lao smiled and said: "If I remember correctly, this game of chess has been played for twenty days, right? Twenty days of hard work has really exhausted Chi Baizi. Although he can play another game and win it. , but after all, he is too tired. If Heizi does not invite him, White will definitely not take the initiative to mention the next game in a short period of time. During this period of time, Heizi may practice chess skills more, which may make Bai Zi feel better. If you have worries, you might delay the next game even more because you can’t win securely ^^^^”

"Although the time has been delayed, the black and white sides are going to play another game."

"Since Go exists, and there are two kinds of chess pieces, black and white, in Go, they must continue to fight. This is the fate of the two chess pieces, isn't it?"

"Yes, so it might be a good thing if we can delay it for a while. During this period, Baizi can recuperate and Heizi has room to survive." The old man in black nodded.

"Senior is really enlightened, and he realized it just like that."

After the old man in purple finished speaking, he stood up, bowed to the old man in black and said, "This junior has taken the liberty to visit and disturbed my senior for so long. There are other important matters in the Righteous Alliance that need to be dealt with by this junior. I believe this is also the case for my senior." , Junior, don’t bother me anymore, let’s go.”

"Fellow Taoist Zizhen, have a safe journey."

Of these two elders, the one in purple is Immortal Zizhen, while the elder in black is none other than Zhong Kui, the ancestor of the Zhong family.

The ancestor of the Zhong family watched Immortal Zizhen fly away into the distance and disappeared from his sight in a moment, and suddenly snorted coldly.

Turning his head, he saw a middle-aged scribe sitting quietly where Immortal Zizhen was, and another indifferent girl standing behind the middle-aged scribe.

The middle-aged scholar had no aura, but gave people a very strange feeling, as if the person in front of him was not real. Under the sunlight, the figure of the middle-aged scholar was also a little trance, as if he was just a phantom projected here, but the middle-aged scholar was twisting the black piece in his hand at this time, which showed that he was indeed real.

"Why did the senior hold back?"

The middle-aged scholar asked with a smile.

As he spoke, the middle-aged scholar put the black piece in his hand somewhere on the chessboard, and the situation on the chessboard suddenly changed. Although the long dragon formed by the white pieces was still strong, the black pieces gathered around the chessboard were connected into a piece, forming a large black net, surrounding the white dragon. Although it was still unclear which one was stronger, the situation was no longer like before when the white pieces had an absolute advantage.

"In this way, even if you can't beat the white pieces, the black pieces will have more living space."

The middle-aged scholar said with a smile.

The old man in black stared at the middle-aged scholar and looked at him for a while. After a while, he slowly said, "Sometimes, I easily mistake you for Zhang Xusheng. You two are really alike."
