Legend of the Demon Emperor of Kyushu

"Yin Changqin's piano score is not something that a young qin fairy can master. Naturally, he must gather friends in the qin circle as soon as possible to understand the mysteries. You don't have to stay here and play the piano to the painters, book celestials, and idlers."

Qi Kangye's sudden departure caused the whole courtyard to fall into confusion and silence, and the old demon head explained in Neihai.

"Haha, hahaha!"

Ye Ziqi suddenly burst into laughter as if on fire.

Winning, even though it was only one level, made the famous Song Dynasty Qin Xian bow his head, how proud he is.

He should be happy, he should laugh, he should let the sorrow that has been suppressed in his heart for a long time radiate out through the strength of alcohol, through this hateful failure in studying, and this pitiful victory in pursuing painting.

He acted like no one was around, he could only laugh wildly.Only wandering.

In order to fight against the sorrow and resentment in my heart, I can spit it out a little bit.

"Old drunkard, don't drink! There is another level!"

Ye Ziqi grabbed Gou Yi's arm tightly, pulled him up, and strode forward.Gou Yi had no choice but to smile wryly "Ouch", and followed in small steps.

Goatee looked at Ye Ziqi with complicated eyes, stepped forward, pushed open the two hall doors, and then the next Kaoguan courtyard appeared: half of which was planted with calla melaleuca, fire tree and red flowers; Planting rye winter, equal to each other.

"This is the test of Master Chixuanzi, the 'Chess Immortal', Mr. Ye, please." Goatee stretched out his hand.

Ye Ziqi squinted his drunken eyes, and saw that there was still no one in the courtyard, only a chessboard table, squarely placed in the middle of the courtyard.Nai snorted coldly, approached the chessboard, and saw that there were only ten red and black pieces on it, but it was a broken game.

Ye Ziqi directly picked up a small "pawn" chess piece from the red side, moved it one step to the left, and the pawns equaled four to five.

"despair!"

After falling, a shocking scene happened.

I saw the black "jang" chess on the board, no one was holding the piece, so it moved by itself, jumped up in the air, then moved a step to the right, and smashed it down heavily.

"despair!"

"Yo." Both Gou Yi and Ye Ziqi backed away in shock, but seeing that the black piece had only moved one step, they followed the rules and did not continue to move.Ye Ziqi understood what she meant, and continued to move Hongzi.

"despair!"

After the soldiers level six.

"despair!"

Cannon seven flat four.

……

After more than ten rounds with the invisible opponent, Ye Ziqi and the opponent had only one general and one pawn left, and it was a draw, and it was impossible to tell the winner. Seeing this, Gou Yi sighed: "This is better than the opponent's death." When is this?!" Then he grabbed the handsome red general with his hands, and wanted to smash the black general.

But the "Jiang" chess piece left the chessboard one step ahead, flew upside down a zhang away, flipped around in mid-air, twirled around, and turned out a person!
In an instant, this man appeared in a red and black robe and stood in the courtyard with a serious expression on his face. He glared sharply at Ye Ziqi with shining eyes, cupped his hands and said, "Little friend is good at chess, old student!" Zhu Xuanzi is honored to meet you."

Ye Ziqi was startled and laughed, and said, "You put the 'Three Immortals Alchemy' (Note) to test me, you blame me for taking your 'One Immortal' away?"

"Don't dare." Zhu Xuanzi said: "Memorizing and reciting chess records is the basic skill of our generation of chess players. If you don't pass this test, you really can't play against me."

"Oh?" Ye Ziqi frowned: "I hear what you mean, isn't it considered a pass just now, and you need to come off the court to compete in person?"

"Naturally, 'Three Immortals Alchemy' is not a very rare chess record, and memorizing the score is not enough to pass the level of old students."

Ye Ziqi heard this, stretched his arms and pressed it on the chessboard, and laughed, "Ha! Although you are a chess master, don't forget that Emperor Wu Ling is the real chess master of all ages!"

As soon as these words came out, Zhu Xuanzi and the two people beside him were startled.Because no matter whether you know chess or not, the name of Emperor Dasong and Wu Ling is well-known in Kyushu.

The emperor of a hundred years ago had been fond of playing chess since he was a teenager, and he was "invincible". It was not until he was 12 years old that he met his first equal opponent:

Si Yuan, the 11-year-old son of Dashi Kingdom in Lizhou.

The two were fighting on the chessboard, Si Yuan was rude and refused to give in, and Emperor Wu Ling was also full of blood. At the end of the fight, Emperor Song Wu Ling raised the chess board and slammed it on the son Si Yuan's head, shooting him to death on the spot !
Ye Ziqi quoted this matter now, the so-called "eternal chess master" is naturally a joke, but it does have a hint of threat, so the chess fairy couldn't laugh or cry, so he had to explain:
"It's not necessary to win the old student in the game. The old student still uses the endgame as a test. Recently, the old student has developed an exquisite endgame, and there is absolutely no chess record to remember. If you can solve it on the spot, you will pass me. Take a test."

After saying that, he waved his sleeves and spilled many chess pieces, which landed on the chessboard with a crackling sound.

Seeing this, Ye Ziqi grinned, and didn't wait for the chess pieces to settle down, so he slapped the chessboard, shaking all the chess pieces flying again!
"Since you love to solve the endgame so much, why not come and solve my game of chess!"

At the sound of drinking, the dragon-shaped needle-spinning kung fu bursts out all the internal energy, controlling the moves to set up an endgame.

At this moment, Qixian, Gou Yi, and Goatee were all stunned——

Could it be that this kid is also a chess idiot who loves to make up endgames by himself?
But even if it is, how can there be any reason to show ugliness in front of the chess fairy?

The chess fairy asked him to solve the game, more or less gave him a chance, did he still expect to make up a dead game that the chess fairy couldn't solve?
However, when the chess pieces fell on the chessboard one by one like rain, Dan Xuanzi's face behind the "rain curtain" also sank little by little.

After the chaotic rain falls, the array is clear, and there are seven red and black pieces on the chessboard.

As the wind calmed down, Dan Xuanzi's aura suddenly rose. The aura of a generation of chess masters overwhelmed everyone watching the game without saying a word.

Zhongzhou Qixian stared at the drunk young man with a solemn expression:

"How do you know this spectrum?"

Ye Ziqi said lightly, "I am from Ju Country."

"I see." Chess Fairy nodded.The king of chess is in the country of Ju, and Yi Tianpu is also in the country of Ju, so it is not surprising that this young man can play this game of chess.

Otherwise, according to the rules of the Central Plains, only a very small number of top chess players are worthy of knowing how to play this game, and it will only be passed on to the brightest disciples.Because I am afraid that ordinary chess players will be too obsessed with it and waste their lives.

The king of the chess game, "Seven Star Gathering".

"But since you know what it is, what's the point of displaying it? In the ancient chess world, there is only one game that remains unsolved."

Zhu Xuanzi shook his head, and at the same time Ye Ziqi hummed softly——

"I have a solution."

"boom!"

In an instant, the stone slab under Chess Immortal's feet was shattered.

"impossible."

"real."

"Who is it? The chess king?"

"No, it's just an unknown old man, a... oh, old chess player."

"It's him?!"

Qi Xian let out a startled cry, his face changed several times, and finally he became serious again, nodding heavily:

"He deserves it!"

Dan Xuanzi will always remember that ten years ago, when he first gained the title of "Chess Immortal", he went north to Leizhou full of confidence to play against Bai Chengjiong, the "Chess King" in Hanye City. Separate the front and back.

But when he walked to the cold leaf field, he met an old man in gray robes, sitting quietly on the road guarding a chessboard.As if waiting for him specially.

Naturally, he couldn't help but stepped forward to discuss a few rounds.

Later, he did not go to Hanye's city gate, nor did he go to Leizhou again.

The unknown chess player made him suffer a crushing defeat.

Suddenly, Dan Xuanzi tried his best to recall the old story with the chess official, and fell into obsession, his eyes only stared at the chess game of "Seven Star Gathering".

I don't know how long it will take...

"The hands-on conversation is over, and the leaves have fallen and the bonuses have been paid a few times.

I'm afraid that the clouds will get lost, and the woodcutter will not be allowed to come back. "(Note [-])

A lazy voice suddenly sounded, but it was the old alcoholic Gou Yi who was bored and sang while drinking.

This poem was heard by Ye Ziqi and Zhu Steward, naturally it was just drunken words, but Dan Xuanzi suddenly woke up as if he had been struck by lightning, stomped his feet vigorously, grabbed Ye Ziqi and asked:

"That old senior, are you okay now?"

Ye Ziqi shook his head: "When the barbarians came, Master Qi used Yi Tianpu to defend the city for Han Ye, and borrowed the power of the 'Seven Star Gathering', but he has not recovered, I am afraid that time is running out."

Zhu Xuanzi's expression changed, he put aside Ye Ziqi, and walked straight out of the courtyard.

Butler Zhu hurriedly shouted with a bitter face: "Master Chess Fairy! Master Chess Fairy!" He told Ye Ziqi, the Four Immortals Exam School, that it was no surprise that he was able to get himself out of the examination room.But at least I want to let the chess fairy leave a sentence for the master, so that I can explain to the master Huaxian.

Sure enough, Zhu Xuanzi came back again, and then Butler Zhu relaxed his expression. Just as he was about to speak, Zhu Xuanzi quickly walked past him without even looking at him.

Butler Zhu touched his goatee in embarrassment, and then turned around to catch up, but saw Zhu Xuanzi stopped in front of Ye Ziqi, with his sleeves straightened, he bowed to Ye Ziqi in long respect!

"Since then, all chess players in the world can recite the 'Seven Stars' chess record and improve their skills. My generation of chess talents, cherish the score for life, and get this solution, just like the continuation of "Red Mansion", without worrying about leaving regrets in life. Chess fairy Zhu Xuanzi, thank you sir for your virtue of communication!"

After the long obeisance, Zhu Xuanzi strode out of the courtyard regardless of the astonished eyes around him.
