Southern Xinjiang, Wansong Mountain.

Wansong Mountain is a mountain and a small mountain range. The highest main peak is more than a thousand feet long, and the entire mountain range is a hundred miles wide.

There are many kinds of trees in the mountains, such as pine, cypress, birch, willow, locust, banyan, etc. The mountains are always green and the flowers are always in bloom.

As for why it is called Wansong Mountain instead of Wanbai Mountain or Wanhua Mountain, it is because there is an ancient pine tree of unknown age on the main peak of this mountain range.

Moreover, this ancient pine tree has become a spirit, and its soul has been condensed and transformed into a human being. He has given himself a Taoist name and is called Wansong Taoist.

You said this mountain is not called Wansong Mountain, what is it called?

If you dare to call it Wanbai Mountain, all the cypress trees on the mountain will disappear overnight.

Forget it, let’s go to Wansong Mountain.

…

The breeze blew by, and the pine needles were blown loudly. There was an inexplicable rhythm in the seemingly chaotic sounds, as if they were singing. He writes an indescribable book.

On the top of Wansong Mountain, under the ancient pine trees.

A stone platform and several stone benches.

On a stone bench, an old man wearing a green robe sat.

The old man’s complexion has a touch of light green, and his hair is also gray with a light green sheen.

At first glance, he doesn’t look like a human being!

The old man's face was calm and calm, and he faced the thirty-eight vertical and horizontal straight lines carved on the stone platform and the black and white stones on the platform, silently thinking silently.

For a long time...

Raising his hand, he took a black jade chess piece from the stone bowl on the side and placed it on the plate.

Make a move, close your hands, and sit quietly.

The breeze blew by, and his clothes followed the wind, but the old man's figure remained motionless.

If he hadn’t moved just now, he would have been like a clay-embedded wood sculpture.

　“Chichi!”

A yellow bird seemed to be tired of flying, and landed on his shoulder with a "flutter".

Looked left and right, then jumped off his shoulders step by step, and finally landed on the stone table in front of him.

The flat stone table was not very friendly to the bird’s paws, so the yellow bird jumped twice. Maybe it felt uncomfortable, so it spread its wings, flapped twice hard, and then used its paws hard. "Pulling" flew away.

　“Huh?”

The eyes of the old man Gujing Wubo suddenly flickered.

The next moment, not far from the old man, two figures emerged from the ground.

"Old Songshu, I am here with the little friend Lu who broke your end."

"The junior layman Lu Zheng of Baiyun Temple has met senior Wan Song. !”

The visitors were none other than Song Kaichuan and Lu Zheng.

Song Kaichuan is not Lu Zheng. He has scruples walking underground and has difficulty recognizing the direction, so he has to pay careful attention to the front.

Song Kaichuan's land travel was really fast and fast, and there were no problems with land travel.

And judging from the fact that he turns from time to time underground, he can easily sense various conditions far ahead.

And because the strength gap is too big, there may be monsters blocking the way, but they cannot sense Song Kaichuan's detection.

So they walked underground all the way south and never went to the surface at all. Lu Zheng didn't even know where Wansong Mountain was in southern Xinjiang.

The only advantage is that Song Kaichuan's ground movement skills are so fast. They have already arrived in just over a day.

Having just arrived on the ground, after hearing Song Kaichuan’s words, seeing the old pine tree in front of him, and glancing at the old man with green hair and skin, Lu Zheng said: I knew I had reached the end of the field and met the real owner.

“Young friend Lu,” Taoist Wan Song nodded, with a calm expression and said with a smile, “My dear friend, please come and pay me a visit.”

“Senior Wan Song is very polite. Yes!" Lu Zheng said, cupping his hands, "This junior also loves to play chess. To be able to see the legendary dream chess game, I can't believe that this junior has got some credit from my senior!"

Taoist Wan Song smiled faintly, He reached out and gestured to the seat opposite him, "The old Taoist is playing chess with himself. Please sit down, little friend."

Taoist Wansong has lived for thousands of years, and Yuanshen has also traveled down the mountain, and he has seen a lot. , I have seen a hundred and eighty people like Lu Zheng who are so good at talking, so it is not unusual.

The key point depends on your ability!

"Okay!"

Lu Zheng nodded without being polite, knowing that Taoist Wansong was preparing to test himself.

It just so happened that I also had a chance to experience Taoist Wan Song’s chess skills and get a feel for the quality of the legendary dream chess game.

Lu Zheng took his seat and looked at the chessboard.

The next moment, white jade and black stones entered the eyes, and the situation changed color. The two sides were like two dragons fighting in the sea of ​​clouds.

There is me in you, and you are in me.

Lu Zheng’s eyes flickered, and he immediately took in the overall situation of the chess game.

Black’s chess and white’s chess are evenly matched.

Black's main attack is to open and close with great momentum, attacking from all sides, fierce in front and solid in the rear, as fierce as a flying tiger and as stable as Mount Tai.

The white chess piece is the main defender. It is flat and stable, as dense as a brocade, with layers upon layers. The front is stable and the rear is strange. It is airtight and there are needles hidden in the brocade.

When one person plays chess, he actually plays four chess styles. The key point is that these four chess styles are intertwined with each other, maintaining the balance of power, restraining and stimulating each other, and integrating into one.

It’s simply terrifying!

Lu Zheng's pupils shrank, he resisted the urge to take a breath, and sat down on the stone bench with a calm expression, his expression indifferent.

Don’t be timid!

I am also a person standing on the shoulders of a group of giants. After all, I have combined the essence of modern and ancient chess skills of countless people in the two worlds into one, and then integrated them with the light of luck, introduced the old and brought forth the new, and played chess A person who has reached a very high level along the way.

But...

Lu Zheng couldn't help but glance at Song Kaichuan.

To be honest, Song Kaichuan's chess skills are already very good. In this world, the only person Lu Zheng has seen who can surpass him in chess skills is the leader of the Jinhua Sect, Peng Yuzhenren.

However, Lu Zheng just took a look at Taoist Wan Song’s chess game, and he couldn’t help but feel that Song Kaichuan’s claim that he and Taoist Wan Song had more defeats and fewer wins in chess was just to put money on his face.

Lu Zheng glanced at the chess game and immediately said, "Junior holds the white position, is it my turn?"

Taoist Wan Song raised his eyebrows, showing a hint of appreciation. , "Exactly, little friend, please."

Lu Zheng's words actually revealed his extraordinary level of chess.

Because both sides are evenly matched at this time, but White is the main defender. Once this move is played by Black, White will immediately be at a disadvantage, so this move must be White.

With such details visible at a glance, Taoist Wan Song really had some mild expectations for Lu Zheng's chess skills.

You must know that Taoist Wansong had no expectations for Lu Zheng before.

He himself is very talented at playing chess, otherwise he would not have been dragged into the dream game by the gods from the upper world. Although the chess game has been unsolvable for thousands of years, his chess skills have improved over the past two thousand years. I don't know how much it has grown.

He was confident that his chess skills had reached the pinnacle in the world, and he was seeking defeat alone. As for the chess game in his dream, Taoist Wan Song also believed that he could only solve it by himself.

As for Song Kaichuan’s invitation to Lu Zheng, Taoist Wan Song only regarded it as a way to support the younger generation and actually didn’t pay much attention to it.

However, Lu Zheng's expression remained unchanged when faced with his own chess game, and he could see the current situation at a glance.

Taoist Wan Song nodded, and his evaluation of Lu Zheng was: Not bad.
