Stunning at Every Step: Sheng Chong Ghost Princess

Chapter 532: Seeking the Phoenix Project
People in the world and in the sky like green lotus that grows out of mud but is not stained, so lotus is planted in many courtyards to appreciate its elegance and charm.

The other shore flower is common in the underworld.The flower of the underworld that is as red as fire and blood.

In Feng Palace.

There is a garden full of Bianhua flowers called Chiyuan.

An octagonal gazebo stood among the flame-like flowers. Zhao Mingyue and Hou Xizhou sat under the pavilion and played chess.Zhao Mingyue's chess skills were poor before, but now she is very good.

Mingyue doesn't think it's because she's smart, but if she has done something repeatedly for thousands of years, it's hard to do it well.

In particular, there are many old immortals who love to play chess. Seeing Tian'er's invitation to play chess, after repeated contacts like this, they naturally became a master of the game.

Of course, there are also old immortals who have played for thousands of years and are still very poor, but the more they are like this, the more they have a soft spot for chess.

For example, Southern Dou Xingjun.

He can manipulate star trails but is blind at chess. He can't play well no matter what, but he always likes to find someone to play with him, so anyone who Nan Dou Xingjun asks to play chess with will stay away.

When I think about the old things now, I feel a little bit laughable.

She puts a white piece into the chess game.

Looking at her with a smile on her face, Hou Xizhou asked, "What is so funny when you think of it?"

Mingyue: "Thinking about the things between colleagues in the past, I suddenly find it very funny."

Hou Xizhou's slender fingers picked up the sunspots and put them into the chess game: "Then tell me."

"Nandou Xingjun used many methods to find someone to play chess with him..."

The two played chess while talking.

After talking about a few embarrassing things about Nandou Xingjun and then looking at my own chess game, why do I feel like I'm about to lose?

But Hou Xizhou is an extremely smart person, if he plays chess with a little carelessness, he will lose, Zhao Mingyue immediately regroups and puts all his attention back on the chessboard, thinks hard, and makes a move.

After the eve of the day seems to be more than capable, falling sunspots.

While Mingyue was thinking, he refilled her fruit scented tea.When she put down the teapot, Mingyue dropped a white stone.Then he looked up at him and smiled.

Hou Xizhou clearly saw that she had replaced one of his seeds, but continued to do so in a completely calm manner.

Mingyue naturally knew that he had seen it. Although she has the gentleman's etiquette of never regretting a move, but the opponent is him, she can cheat without shame. Who made him her man?
Tuo Ze stepped forward to report: "My lord, the young master Xilan is here."

Mingyue and Hou Xizhou glanced at each other, and as expected, Xilan came to the door.

Hou Xizhou: "Let her in."

Why is Zhao Taiyin here again?Xi Lan walks through the garden to the gazebo to greet Hou Xi Zhou.Mingyue got up and bowed to her.

Brother said, this Zhao Taiyin is Lu Yanqing's disciple, and he came to Feng Palace last time to heal his wounds.

Before that, he and Hou Xizhou killed Tarot in Jinling, so it is reasonable for the two to be closer.

It doesn't matter who he is as long as he doesn't snatch a man from her, Xilan smiled back at Mingyue.

"Are you playing chess?"

"Yes." Mingyue replied.

Xilan turned to Hou Xizhou: "Second brother hasn't played chess with me for a long time, if we meet today, why don't you play chess with me?"

Mingyue sensibly gave up the seat opposite, and stood aside by herself.

"Master Zhao doesn't have to stand, sit down." Hou Xi said.

Mingyue looked at Xi Lan, as if looking at her face, Xi Lan said: "Young Master Zhao is injured, please sit down as the ghost king gives you the seat."

Only then did Mingyue respectfully thank her: "Thank you Ghost King, thank you little master."

Then Fupao sat down at the side, and poured tea for Xilan in a polite manner.

Although Hou Xizhou's expression was still cold, at least she left without turning around, and she discarded the original chess game and re-opened it, and Hou Xizhou didn't say a word to stop or leave, Xi Lan was immediately elated.

Sure enough, after driving away all the women around him, Hou XiZhou's eyes finally fell on her, so even if he lived as someone else for decades, it was worth it.

It's just that Zhao Mingyue is dead, but that Luanhuang is not yet. Xi Lan couldn't help touching her face. If the woman hadn't scratched her face, she wouldn't have to wait for her elder brother to find someone to repair her face before coming here .If it wasn't because that woman was still useful, she would have killed her slowly!
"Second brother, let's start."

Hou Xizhou's expression was cold, but in Xi Lan's eyes, he had always been like this, so it was not surprising to see him.

"Second brother, it's your turn."

Xi Lan's chess skills are not bad, but she is not the opponent of Hou XiZhou at all.

But Hou Xizhou had no intention of giving in at all, within a few rounds, Xi Lan already felt unable to parry, and then began to play tricks.

"Second brother, you made me regret two steps."

Then, without Hou Xizhou's promise, he moved the chess pieces back. Not only did he make him take two steps back, but he even had to push forward and withdraw Hou Xizhou's chess pieces directly.

Hou Xi and day no longer move the chess board, disdain to continue walking with her.

Xi Lan: "Anyway, you're so good, you won't lose if you give me two moves..." Xi Lan said again, "When you play chess with a girl, you have to be humble, right? Master Zhao?"

Mingyue said: "Theoretically speaking, you don't regret Fang Junzi playing chess, but when Master Xilan plays chess with the second brother, the second brother can give way moderately."

"Well said." Xi Lan raised her eyebrows and looked at Hou XiZhou.

"Not interested." Hou Xizhou drank tea by himself and was not persuaded by Zhao Mingyue.

Xilan looked at Zhao Taiyin with an embarrassed smile and bowed her head, it seemed that the ghost king didn't buy Zhao Taiyin's account either: "It seems that my chess skills are too bad, and the second brother thinks it's boring."

Mingyue asked respectfully: "I can't beat the Ghost King, so why don't I play chess with the young master? How about the young master attacking me to assist?"

As long as he can stay with her, Xixi will be fine.

"Then if I don't regret the game, can I just ask for a helper?"

Hou Xizhou took a look at Zhao Mingyue and continued to play with the chess pieces. Originally, Lingguang Shenjun was good at chess, but the chessboard became dangerous, and Zhao Mingyue was very good at observing words and expressions, and would not steal Xilan's limelight. Xi Lan has always been the main attacker, so Xi Lan is very happy to play.

Therefore, the three of them played chess in Chiyuan for an afternoon. This was the longest and most harmonious time they had gotten along with Hou Xi and Day for so many years.

Until the eve of the day was invited away by Bai Yu.

Xi Lan didn't have any temper at all, and she deliberately looked at Zhao Taiyin, who was respectful and modest, again.

This kid is quite good at observing words and expressions, he has a certain amount of advance and retreat, and he is quite good at being a man.

"You play chess well." Xi Lan knew that most of the reason why she was able to play chess with Hou Xiday for so long was because of Zhao Taiyin, but he would not affect her dominant position.

"The little master is absurd."

"What are you praising, it's good if you play well, but..." Xi Lan squinted at him, "What are you doing in Feng Palace again?"

"To be honest, the ghost king saved my next life. I wanted to repay the ghost king, but I am weak and useless. Recently, I came to Feng Palace because I was not feeling well. I came to Mr. Bai Yu to continue my life."

What he said was consistent with what the elder brother said, but this kid did not lie to her.

Xi Lan: "But the ghost king is willing to play chess with you?"

"Heh." Mingyue smiled sheepishly, "It's only when I play chess that the ghost king treats me a little bit, so I have a chance to play chess with the ghost king."

"Then... the king often plays chess with you?"

"Duke Wang is busy with work, and occasionally when he is resting, he will order you to come and play chess with him."

"..." He actually found a human kid to play chess with him. Since there is no one around, why didn't he accept her readily?
"I would venture to ask, the young master seems to like the ghost king?"

"Nonsense, otherwise, do I need to use this face to escape his favor?"

"Yes." Mingyue cupped her hands humbly, "It's my eyesight, but according to my humble opinion, the girl should do what she likes and it will be easier for the ghost king to accept."

what for?

What does it mean?
"What do you want to say?"

"My lord, I don't see you playing chess with the king today, and the next afternoon will be a harmonious atmosphere."

Of course, a certain big ghost has that coffin face most of the time, but in the eyes of others, if he doesn't chase people away or leave, the atmosphere is already harmonious.

What Zhao Taiyin said hit the point, and Xi Lan also felt that today's Hou Xiri was different from the past, so she couldn't help secretly agreeing with Zhao Taiyin's conclusion.

"But my chess skills are mediocre, and my second brother must not like to play with me."

"Zihui Palace is so big, there are many people who can teach Xilan how to play chess."

Teach her to play chess, how long will it take her to learn to be on par with Hou Xi and Day?

Eh?
Xi Lan looked at Zhao Mingyue who was at the side.

"You said the Ghost King would play chess with you in his spare time?"

"Yes."

"In this case, you are good at chess, why don't you teach me how to play chess?"

"I'm afraid that the small skills are not good..."

"Whether you are good or not, I saw it just now." Besides, finding someone else may not be as knowledgeable as Zhao Taiyin, and more importantly... Xi Lan's mouth curled up, and if she learned chess from him, she would come to Fenggong rightfully, wouldn't she? ?

"Hmph, I will learn from you!"

Mingyue couldn't evade it, so she could only say: "However, I can't stay in Feng Palace forever, the Ghost King will invite me to leave the Underworld in a few days."

"Why don't you just teach me chess in the name of it?"

"Then... I'd rather be respectful than obedient."

If one day Xilan finds out that she is Zhao Mingyue, she must be so angry at today's decision that she vomits blood, right?
As a result, Zhao Mingyue has now become the closest person to Xilan, creating many opportunities for Xilan to meet Hou Xizhou, and even setting up a chess game for Xilan, and then teaching her how to break it, so that She took it to the evening and evening.

This is the first time Xilan played chess with Hou Xizhou alone, and without cheating, she got the opportunity to play chess with Hou Xizhou as her opponent.

Having tasted the sweetness of one, of course Xilan wanted to get the second one, so she asked Zhao Mingyue to set up a chess game for her.

Mingyue said: "In our human world, this game is called the fairy game. It is said that it is a puzzle game left by the stars in the sky. It was solved by us humans after hundreds of years."

"Whatever the fairy bureau, you teach me immediately!"

"As ordered."

So, Zhao Mingyue gave Xi Lan another chess game.

Zhao Mingyue has a very thorough understanding of Xilan's character. This person is very smart, but irritable and jealous, but he has been obsessed with Hou Xizhou for so many years, which is rare.

It's just that it's a little unreasonable to use her feelings to set up a situation.

But thinking that Xi Lan would not change after repeated admonitions, and had even cast a mind-killing trick on her, she was still so unrepentant, so it was fine to do anything to her, seeing that she and Hou Xizhou were old friends for many years, so I let her go.But now that she has taken Luanhuang away, she has no choice but to fight back.

This time, she will definitely find Luanhuang.

Just as he felt that he was determined to win, thinking about what to do next, Hou Xiri walked over from the opposite side.
