I was favored by the evil god, and I became a white-bone bodhisattva.

“No, no, no”

Dong waved his hands repeatedly: "It's not like we're playing chess, what's so interesting about it."

Okay, then Tangtang, go and see it yourself.

The little girl hurriedly finished her meal, then cheered herself up and ran outside.

I saw a lot of people gathered in front of a beautiful mansion.

The owner of the house was asking the servants to move a few boxes of things to the man who was buying knives on credit. The latter opened them casually, took a look, and just shook his head.

Chapter 154: Comeback against the Wind

The boxes contained either kitchen knives, scissors, or some worthless pots and pans.

Seeing this, Jiang Luoyun sneered, turned around and left.

"Wait a minute!" Sweat suddenly broke out on the forehead of the owner of the mansion.

He had been a little cautious before. After all, this was something that happened in his grandfather's generation. He really didn't want to pay the debt to the apprentice of the knife seller who came to him to collect the debt again.

It would be best if we could get rid of this "creditor" at the lowest cost.

But now that my little plan has not worked out, I have no choice but to let it go.

"Master Jiang, please look."

The man took out a small box from his arms and handed it to Jiang Luoyun respectfully.

The latter opened it and found it was a jade ring.

The jade ring was still of some quality despite being torn. Jiang Luoyun nodded, which was considered as his approval of his repayment of the debt with the jade.

"I remember there was a small chess hall nearby, why is it closed?"

After taking the jade ring, Jiang Luoyun did not leave immediately, but frowned and asked the man.

"It's too hot and there's no business. We can't open now."

Jiang Luoyun couldn't help feeling very disappointed when he heard this. He was born in this county, and later followed his master to practice, and he hasn't been back for decades.

The chess hall that I remember most vividly in my childhood is no longer in business.

Damn the weather!

In melancholy, Jiang Luoyun suddenly raised the box in his hand and said impulsively: "Even if the chess hall is gone, we still have to play chess. Today, I will use this jade ring as a bargaining chip. Whoever can beat me will get this thing."

As soon as these words were spoken, the onlookers were shocked.

Even Tangtang felt something when she saw the jade ring.

Although the quality was far inferior to the Luosu jade and the Han jade, the jade ring did slightly arouse her appetite.

If you can eat it, it can be considered a tonic.

"What's the matter? Who wants to play chess?"

A familiar voice came from behind, and the little girl couldn't help laughing: "Uncle Dong, you are really a chess fanatic. You popped up as soon as you heard someone wanted to play chess."

"That's right, but I originally wanted to go back and play chess with you."

Dong Yishou soon learned from Tangtang that the knife seller on credit was offering a jade ring as a prize and inviting people from all over to fight.

He was so excited that he rubbed his hands and quickly stepped forward to line up for the challenge.

.....

A true monk? !

After Dong Yishou took his seat, Jiang Luoyun's attention was immediately focused on the little girl behind him.

"Playing chess is important, so play chess first."

Seeing Jiang Luoyun standing up with a nervous look on his face as if he was going to salute, Tangtang hurriedly said.

"Yes Yes Yes"

The Pupa Dan monk who had just stood up sat back down. He rubbed his hands and started playing chess with Dong Yishou somewhat absentmindedly.

"Oh? This guy is quite good at chess. If I don't take him seriously, I'm afraid I'll lose this jade ring."

After a few moves, Jiang Luoyun realized that the young man in front of him was an opponent.

He stopped daydreaming and focused on playing chess.

Good, that’s awesome!

Dong became more and more frightened as he made more moves. Halfway through the game, he even felt that there was someone better than him.

"If I don't use my Dragon Hand, I won't be able to beat him."

But the problem is, the Dragon-Pointing Hand skill can only be performed when one is in extremely good condition.

Dong Yishou stayed up all night yesterday, so it’s hard to say how good his condition is today.

So...

We lost, and it was a crushing defeat.

"I was not in good condition just now, please play another round!"

Dong Yishou was not seriously hurt. He patted his face, cheered himself up and was ready to fight again.

Jiang Luoyun was afraid that the little girl would get impatient waiting, so he waved his hand to indicate that each of them would play one game.

.....

Xiaobai's chess skills are slightly better than Dong Yishou, and he is already half a step away from being a grandmaster. However, Jiang Luoyun is a true grandmaster.

Theoretically, Xiaobai cannot beat the latter, but in this game, Jiang Luoyun is just one move short.

"I'm really getting old. I don't have enough energy to play more games of chess."

Jiang Luoyun pressed his forehead and said something in a pretentious manner, then quickly handed the box to Tangtang.

Well, of course this guy lost on purpose.

Since the Huazhen monk wants the jade ring, just give it to him as a favor.

"Haha, Tangtang is lucky."

The little girl happily took out the jade ring and started chewing it.

It must be pointed out that she did not realize that this was a personal favor, and she really thought that Jiang Luoyun lost because he consumed too much brain energy.

"You chewed up a jade ring like this? What a waste of talent!"

"No, why are her teeth so good?"

After Tangtang bit off the jade ring in public, the people in the queue began to condemn her with expressions of pity.

Jiang Luoyun was scared half to death, but he soon discovered that the little girl had a good temper and didn't care at all about what people were saying.

At this time, Dong Yishou came over again and expressed his desire to play another game with Jiang Luoyun tomorrow.

Well, he also believed the latter's lack of energy.

Just as Jiang Luoyun was about to speak, the little girl spoke first: "Uncle Dong didn't play well just now. If he could trigger the Dragon Hand, then even the most powerful chess player would lose to him."

Point the dragon hand?

"Excuse me, Senior, what is this dragon hand?"

Under Dong Yishou's astonished gaze, Jiang Luoyun asked Tangtang respectfully.

"The Dragon Pointer is a unique skill that can either kill with the wind in your favor or turn the tide when the wind is against you!"

If it was Dong Yishou himself who boasted like this, Jiang Luoyun would just laugh.

But when these words came out of the mouth of a Huazhen cultivator, the weight of their words was different.

Jiang Luoyun looked at Dong Yishou for a moment and spoke politely.

"Brother Dong, since you have special skills, I will come to visit you tomorrow and we can have a good fight."

After finding out that Dong Yishou's home was nearby, Jiang Luoyun left thoughtfully.

.....

The next morning, Jiang Luoyun came to visit.

After entering the room, he did not immediately play chess with Dong Yishou because the latter's battle with the little girl had not yet ended.

Jiang Luoyun watched with great interest. At first, his attention was on the chessboard, but soon, the Pupa Dan monk's eyes frequently glanced at the relic in Tangtang's hand.

"It must be a great Buddhist treasure. Alas, it is far superior to my flying shuttle."

Of course I am envious, but the girl is a true cultivator and deserves such a good thing.

"Fellow Daoist, sorry for the long wait."

Tangtang's words interrupted Jiang Luoyun's wandering thoughts. After he calmed down, he smiled and took over the game of chess with Dong Yishou, replacing the little girl who was looking for food.

"Today I want to see Brother Dong's dragon-pointing skills for myself."

If the Dragon Hand is really that magical, maybe you are the person I am looking for.

Bang

Dong nodded slightly and made the first move.

Jiang Luoyun followed slowly and soon gained the upper hand.

Looking at all the cultivators in the world, those who have the chess skills of Jiang Luoyun can be counted on one hand.

All we can say is that birds of a feather flock together. Because with a master who is obsessed with chess, it is impossible for Jiang Luoyun to be bad at chess.

As time passed, the Pupa Dan monk gained the upper hand.

From time to time, he looked at Dong Yishou with a serious expression, expecting him to display his special skills.

Snapped!

Finally, Dong made a move and Jiang Luoyun's eyes widened suddenly.

Turn the tide against all odds and click the dragon's hand!

Chapter 155: God refuses to take what he wants

When Tangtang came back from foraging, she found Jiang Luoyun waiting for her eagerly.

"Senior, can you please spare me a moment to talk?"

Ok?

The little girl looked at Dong Yishou, who also had a puzzled expression on his face.

"Then, shall we go talk in the room?"

Since Dong Yishou was the owner of the house, Tangtang looked at him for his opinion when she spoke.

"You two should come back soon. I'm still waiting to play chess."

Apart from playing chess, Dong Yishou seems to not care about anything else.

After the two came into the room, Jiang Luoyun immediately started talking about his master.

"My master was a knife seller from a previous generation. In addition to me, his disciple, he also left his robes and bowls on a cliff before his death."

Jiang Luoyun said that he had promised his master that he would find another successor for "Shedao".

But he had not found a suitable candidate over the years. It was not until he was defeated by Dong today that he saw some possibility of the young man passing the test.

"Fellow Daoist, you should tell Uncle Dong about this matter."

The little girl looked at Jiang Luoyun strangely, not understanding why he wanted to whisper to her.

"Since you are staying at the Dong family, I should ask you first about anything." Jiang Luoyun said seriously.

Yes, is that so?

Tangtang scratched his head and said, "Uncle Dong and I met by chance. If he is willing to accept the test and embark on the path of cultivation, that would be great."

After a pause, the little girl asked what the test was and whether it was dangerous.

"Haha, there is no danger at all. As long as Brother Dong can beat those chess monsters raised by my master in chess skills, that's enough!"

Seeing that the little girl had no objection, Jiang Luoyun happily went outside and talked about the matter with Dong Yishou.
