However, before Jiang Yan could hint to Yan Qing to cooperate with him, Sui Yang, the fox-possessed person opposite him, was already impatient:
"Boy, are you still going to play this game? I thought you were too stupid to win, but it turns out you just don't have the guts to challenge me, haha."
And the three people behind him who were controlled by Sui Yang also started to sing a double act, well, a quadruple act.
"You coward, don't dare play chess with Master Chess Ghost!"
"That's right, you are too inferior!"
"coward!"
No courage? Coward? Jiang Yan almost died of laughter when he heard this.
The person in front of him was the one who dared to challenge Wuxian Feiguang, and even let Danheng, the former Dragon Lord, and Ren, the Star Core Hunter, board the Immortal Boat together. He was the bravest one!
Have you ever been beaten up by all the seniors in your sect? How dare you challenge him to a fight? The only reason he hasn't rushed in yet is because you're too weak!
Without asking, Jiang Yan simply sensed the strength of Sui Yang's breath and figured out what had just happened.
Little brother Yanqing ran over excitedly, but found that this guy didn't look like a strong man at all, and he didn't have any sealing props on him, so the scene became awkward.
Thinking of this, Jiang Yan took over the conversation without hesitation:
"It doesn't matter, I'll take his place!"
Before Sui Yang could react, Yan Qing was stunned:
"Huh? Brother Jiang, can you play this weird chess game?"
Jing Yuan was a multi-talented man, proficient in all arts, including music, chess, calligraphy, and painting. Yan Qing, influenced by him, had also become quite good at Xianzhou Xingzhen Chess. However, the strange chess game before him consisted of only one piece, and the chessboard was extremely simple. Yan Qing had never seen it before.
Yanqing felt that this thing was more like a puzzle game than a chess game.
However, the other party called himself "Chess Ghost" and captured so many victims, so it couldn't be that simple. Yan Qing eliminated the correct answer without hesitation.
Yan Qing, who was born in the Immortal Boat, had never seen it, and Jiang Yan, who was an outsider, had naturally never seen it. But anyway, it was just to buy time until Huo Huo's restraint technique was complete. Thinking of this, Jiang Yan said nonchalantly:
"It doesn't matter. If you don't know how, you can learn it on the spot! Come on, let's play a game first to get familiar with it!"
Learning now? Are you so confident? It seems I can find Brother Jiang to play a couple of games of Xianzhou Xingzhen chess in my free time someday. Naive Yan Qing didn't think much of it, simply assuming that Jiang Yan was confident in his own comprehension and wanted to test his skills against that Sui Yang.
As for the outcome of the competition, Yan Qing didn't care at all. He didn't believe that the result of a game of chess would change the Sui Yang's ways and turn himself in, or that Jiang Yan would let the Sui Yang go.
After all, after all this trouble, we still have to fight in the end, right?
Thinking of this, Yan Qing took a few steps back, silently blocked the escape route of the possessed fox man Sui Yang, and waited silently for the fall.
Jiang Yan's straightforwardness quickly won the admiration of Sui Yang, and as if infected, it also said very cheerfully:
"Come on, barbarians, let's have a hearty game of chess!"
After that, he came to the chessboard and began to explain the rules to Jiang Yan:
"So and so... so and so, this is the path to enlightenment, do you understand?"
Jiang Yan's expression was blank after hearing the rules. "This game, simpler than Push Box or Huarong Road, you actually brought it to a dark duel? Throw it to Master Taibu. If you think for more than one second, I lose!"
"By the way, isn't the IQ of this fragment a bit worrying?" Jiang Yan muttered silently.
Fortunately, just after the first game started, Jiang Yan heard a tapping sound on the wall, obviously Huo Huo had completed the arrangement.
In that case, what are you waiting for?
Just as Sui Yang urged Jiang Yan, "Hurry up! I'll wait until all the flowers have withered!", Jiang Yan suddenly grabbed a maze-like chessboard with both hands and smashed it hard on the head of the fox woman possessed by Sui Yang. She instantly rolled her eyes and fainted on the ground. The Sui Yang that possessed her was also ejected from the body by the huge impact.
"Come here, you big-headed ghost!"
"Let me show you what a Xianzhou Chess Master is! Huo Huo, get started!"
Oops, we're being harassed by the Immortal Boat people! : Chapter 78: Double Kill
The moment Jiang Yan's chessboard struck his head, a turquoise magic circle enveloped the entire courtyard. Two figures swooped down from the walls like hawks swooping down on their prey, their cloth-wrapped iron rods and broadswords hurling themselves at the heads of the defeated warriors. With a few thuds, the three losers of the dark duel were all knocked to the ground.
Faced with this kind of behavior from the Immortal Boat Chess Master, even Yan Qing, who had been waiting for a rebellion, was stunned, not to mention Sui Yang, who had been knocked out of his host body by a chessboard. In his rage, he even forgot to escape and floated directly in the air, cursing at Jiang Yan:
"Barbaric! This is a battle of brains. Are all humans so despicable?"
Before Jiang Yan could retaliate, the two immortal boat people who were physically controlled by Gui Naifen had already regained consciousness. They covered their heads and cursed with expressions even more angry than the Sui Yang:
"How dare you, a lousy chess player, say that? Who is it that cheated after losing and forcibly controlled us?"
"Do you have any shame? You call this rubbish chess? A Di Ting is better than you!"
However, when Sui Yang heard this accusation, he turned back in anger and said viciously:
"I didn't win, but is that a reason for you to mock me for being a 'bad player'? You have chess ethics but no moral integrity, so don't you deserve my punishment?"
This extraordinary development almost caused Jiang Yan, who was about to teach the other party the way of chess master, to sprain his waist.
So you didn't win a single one! Why are you still playing chess if you're such a bad player? Why not just go find a lighter and get to work?
Fortunately, as the huge magic gourd suddenly floated in the air, it successfully sucked the still indignant chess player Sui Yang into it, and the farce finally came to an end.
Seeing that the opponent he had finally found, Sui Yang, was such a clown, Yan Qing could not hide his disappointment and complained:
"I originally heard that Sui Yang was causing trouble in Luofu, intending to recreate the 'Possession Disaster'. I thought it was time for me to show off my prowess. But this level... really doesn't interest me. It seems that martial arts practitioners shouldn't just blindly revere the past!"
Yanqing is also a frequent visitor to Buyehou's storytelling stall. He often imagines the glorious moments of the heroes who overcame all difficulties and defeated various powerful enemies and finally established the Xianzhou Alliance.
Now there is a rare opportunity to recreate the war, but Yan Qing was so troubled by this poor chess player that he almost doubted the value of the war six thousand years ago.
Before Jiang Yan could try to restore the reputation of the Sui Yang clan for his sister, Gui Naifen jumped out excitedly.
A few days ago, she finally managed to get to see a big eyeball-blasting scene, but because her body was controlled, she couldn't broadcast it live. This was Gui Naifen's biggest regret since arriving in the Immortal Boat. Seeing Yan Qing actually doubting the authenticity of Sui Yang's strength, wasn't that also doubting the authenticity of the Sui Yuan battle? How could Gui Naifen resist?
"No way! Compared with the one we met in Suiyuan, this guy is not even a small flame!" Gui Naifen said while spreading her arms, using her rich body language as a host to describe how big the big Suiyang she met was.
However, her description made Yan Qing's eyes look a little suspicious. Even though they hadn't been together for a long time, Yan Qing knew that this friend would do anything for the show's effect. But he didn't feel relieved until Jiang Yan nodded.
"It's great that there are experts! I'll look for them more often during my patrols. I'm sure there'll be a chance I can run into one or two strong ones!"
Jiang Yan completely believed this.
This young man really has some luck. In the whole Luofu, there are few people who can beat him, but he always meets people who are stronger than him. What else can this be but luck?
But thinking about this, Jiang Yan couldn't help but worry. Sui Yang was not Yan Qing's senior disciples. If he was beaten, he would be turned into a puppet at best, or burned to death at worst. He quickly reminded:
"Don't mess around. Although Sui Yang's thing isn't very powerful, its methods are quite strange. The Ten Kings' Division has issued a 'Sui Yang Exorcism Manual.' Although it's an internal document, it doesn't involve any confidential information. I'm forwarding you a copy now. Take a look at it when you have time."
After saying that, he operated Yuzhao and forwarded the file shared by Huohuo in the group to Yanqing.
"Um...thank you, Brother Jiang."
Before Yan Qing had time to learn about Gui Naifen's recruitment, he looked at Jiang Yan casually taking out the internal documents of the Ten Kings Division with an extremely strange expression on his face.
The Ten Kings Division has non-confidential documents? Why haven't I heard of them?
You're so familiar with this underworld organization? You can even handle people from the underworld? You really are my Brother Jiang!
Yan Qing, who never submitted to anyone, was completely awed by Jiang Yan's uncanny ability. Even if Jiang Yan claimed one day that he had revitalized a planet through his "charisma," Yan Qing would probably consider how much he wanted to contribute before considering its authenticity.
Just as Jiang Yan was about to remind Yan Qing of some practical details, he saw Su Shang approaching with an embarrassed look on her face:
"Xiao Jiang, Brother Yanqing, does anyone have any medicine to reduce swelling and relieve pain? When I was helping the hostage break free just now, I seemed to have used a little too much force..."
Jiang Yan and Yan Qing looked down and saw that the two hostages who were physically released by Gui Naifen were looking at their "companion" who was still lying on the ground with a big bump on his head with a look of horror and relief. They then looked at Su Shang who was at a loss and sighed together.
This girl's strength was extraordinary. Even Jiang Yan, with the added bonus of his protective power, didn't dare to casually block her full-strength sword strike during their sparring match. The fact that he didn't need a Beloborg-style rescue was probably a sign of the Vajra Clan's good fortune.
"It doesn't matter. We have to take emergency measures. It's better than him being burned by Sui Yang." Jiang Yan could only comfort Su Shang in this way.
But to be honest, Jiang Yan felt that he couldn't completely blame Su Chang for hitting too hard. The physical fitness of the Chiming people was amazing, so who knew if they would be strong enough to knock him out! Of course, he left enough room for error.
Of course, the fox man who was knocked unconscious by his chessboard was not in a much better condition. From a distance, the swollen bump looked like a third ear on his head. However, no one sympathized with him because he was the possessed host.
"Then I will take these people who have been possessed to Dan Ding Division first. We will meet again later."
Faced with this awkward situation, Yan Qing, a member of the Cloud Cavalry, was fortunately able to provide significant assistance. He expertly used Jade Omens to summon several colleagues, who helped the two victims to their feet and took the two still-shaken victims to the Dan Ding Division for examination, saving the rumor-busting team a significant amount of trouble.
Su Chang, whose emotions came and went quickly, had already seen the cloudy weather turn sunny after some comfort. She led everyone to seamlessly start the celebration party for the successful first event... well, basically a success.
After all, people are in Changletian. Now that they are here, why shouldn't they eat even if the funds allocated by the Ten Kings Division have not yet arrived?
The biggest advantage of dining at your own expense is that you don't have to worry about any meal costs. Soon, after ordering, everyone started to invite people. Yan Qing, who had just helped so much, obviously had to be invited. It was absolutely impossible to eat delicious food in Changletian without bringing Bailu.
However, as soon as everyone opened the Jade Omen, they knew they wouldn't be able to enjoy the meal. By then, the headline on the Luofu Zazu website had become "Bailu Alley Suspected to Release a Life-Size Dragon King Figure," along with a photo of two identical Bailu figures spotted in Bailu Alley. Countless people were ecstatic and asking when the figures would be released and where to order them.
Bai Lu is now the top idol in Luofu, and even the entire Xianzhou Alliance. Her action figures are selling like crazy. But a life-size, life-size, life-like figure with the same texture and expression that can actually move? Don't say anything, just take my Xundi!
However, the rumor-busting team couldn't believe, as the netizens did, that this was some kind of real dragon model. The reason was simple: they had recently seen too many Bai Lus with a faint green-yellow glow around them.
OK! Let's get to work.
"I'm telling you in advance, you're not allowed to play Bai Lu!"
Gui Naifen emphasized this seriously, looking at the two critical strike exorcists. Huo Huo nodded repeatedly beside her. She was really worried that her two reckless friends would throw Bai Lu in the face.
How could the lovely Bai Lu resist these two barbarians? Huo Huo put it in his mind. If he were to wake up and see the third ear on his head, he would cry all day.
"Who do you think I am?" Su Shang said dissatisfiedly with her cheeks puffed out.
What does that mean?! Didn't I just use a little too much force just now? If I don't try a few times, how will I know how strong the Chiming tribe's defense is?
"Then why don't you do it yourself, Xiao Guizi? Didn't you control the strength of those two people just now very well?"
"Attacking Bailu in public in Bailu Lane? The four of us would probably be torn to pieces on the spot!" Gui Naifen explained with her hands spread out.
Bailu is now in Bailu Lane, and wherever she goes, there are always large numbers of people watching from afar.
If the Tianbo Division and Dragon Master had not issued a joint decree strictly prohibiting harassment of Dragon Lord without permission, she would have been unable to even leave the door.
Openly attacking someone with a club in this situation? Su Shang gave up the idea after just imagining herself surrounded by countless angry Xianzhou people.
But friends can't help each other, so Su Shang used her brain for a while and came up with a new plan:
"Hold on to your legs and use the windmill to spin Bailu until she's dizzy, okay? I remember Bailu was very afraid of spinning. If onlookers ask about it, just say we're just playing a game."
However, the only response she received from her three companions was a look that said, "Even the rich evil creatures have to call you sister."
However, Su Shangqingqi's imagination reminded Jiang Yan.
Yes, if you want to talk about this little guy’s weaknesses, who is more familiar with him than himself?
So in a blink of an eye, Jiang Yan came up with a good idea, and successfully persuaded the other three people, and went directly to Bailu Lane.
Although tickets to Bailu Lane Amusement Park are still hard currency with a high price, it is obvious that Jiang Yan, Bailu's agent, does not need these things. After revealing his identity, he easily brought Gui Naifen, Su Shang and Huo Huo in through the employee passage, then took out the jade oath and began his shameless act of deceiving the little girl.
"We came to see you. Are you off work?"
Bailu Lane can do without anything except Bailu. So even though it's no longer as busy as it was during its planning phase, Bailu still makes a point of occasionally wandering around the lane on weekends. She can do whatever she pleases, just to make her presence felt. Of course, tempted by the countless businesses and entertainment facilities, she enjoys this "work."
But compared to Xiao Jiang, what does "going to work" mean? In response to Jiang Yan's call, Bai Lu replied instantly:
"It's just right. I'm tired after playing for a long time. I'm going to get off work now. Where are you guys?"
"In the staff rest area. I've sent you the location."
After Jiang Yan sent the location, the little dragon girl quickly ran over:
"Have you eaten? It's the weekend, so we can hang out together this afternoon!"
Jiang Yan agreed casually and handed her a cup of Xing Yu Bobo. Bai Lu, who was thirsty from running, took it without hesitation and gulped down several big mouthfuls before continuing:
"By the way, I forgot to tell you that I made a new friend today... Wait, Xiao Jiang, why did you become two? Why am I spinning in circles?" After saying that, he fell into Jiang Yan's arms with a thud. A Suiyang popped out, and was trapped in Huo Huo's magic circle with a confused look on his face.
"You despicable adults, what have you done to Bai Lu?"
This kind of righteous questioning immediately made it difficult for the rumor-busting team to deal with it.
What's with Sui Yang? Why is he more worried about Bai Lu than we are? Who is the real villain?
However, it would take some time for Huo Huo to activate his magic weapon. Jiang Yan didn't mind chatting with it to buy time:
"Don't worry, it's wine. Bailu gets drunk when it touches wine, so we injected some wine into Xingtuo's pearls."
"My despicable lord, I've seen her memories. Aren't you two friends?"
Sui Yang asked in disbelief, how could you knock down your friend just by meeting him?
"My friends are here to arrest you. Are they going to wait until you hurt Bai Lu before coming back?"
"I'm not! Wait... despicable!"
Jiang Yan's tone suddenly turned cold. Before Sui Yang could explain, a huge green gourd suddenly jumped out from behind Jiang Yan. The powerful suction instantly sucked Sui Yang in. After burping with satisfaction, the gourd was covered with a stopper by Huo Huo.
Only after completing all this did the rumor-busting team hurriedly feed Bai Lu sobering soup and pills to speed up her body's circulation. After a long time, they finally woke up this little drunk dragon.
