Although the high platform is not small, the entire high platform is quite square. Now it is not difficult to turn it into a chessboard. And in a moment, huge chess pieces made of whole pieces of wood are placed in two large wooden jars.
, and have been placed at the two corners of the high platform. The two stewards of Yubao Pavilion stood next to the wooden jars, waiting to start.
After getting ready, only about a quarter of an hour later, Shopkeeper Feng ran down and said: "The game between Madam Yudai and the Master of the Palace has begun. Madam Yudai will go first with black, and the move will be Tianyuan!"
"Well! Mrs. Yudai actually fell in love with Tianyuan. This... this is really unexpected!"
"The first move fell to Tianyuan. Could it be that Mrs. Yudai deliberately gave the first move to the Lord of the Palace?"
"Mrs. Yudai has developed some new tricks?"
The first move of chess immediately attracted a lot of discussion, and the entire Yubao Pavilion became an uproar.
"How is your chess skill, sir?" Lan Yuying asked with a smile.
Lin Haoming just smiled and said nothing more, and soon the layout began.
After watching for a while, Lan Yuying frowned and said: "When Mrs. Yudai taught me, she told me that the essentials of chess are golden horns, silver edges, grass belly, how come Madam actually did the opposite?"
"Is it possible that Mrs. Yudai wants to lose and deliberately gives up a game to the Palace Master?" Shi Shan also asked as he was not good at chess.
Lin Haoming shook his head at this time and said: "This is Mrs. Yudai thinking that the chessboard is the universe and occupying the center of the universe first-hand."
"Sir, have you seen it?" the two people asked at the same time.
"It's not easy for Mrs. Jade Belt to turn the chessboard into a universe. Every piece He Chang makes revolves around the center of the universe. Who do you think will lose and who will win?" Lin Haoming said with a smile.
Shortly after Lin Haoming said these words and had only made more than a hundred moves, Shopkeeper Feng ran down and said: "The victory has been decided. Lord He, I surrender!"
Hearing this, everyone immediately became excited again, and everyone marveled at Mrs. Yudai's clever methods.
Lin Haoming looked at the chessboard and said: "This Master He is not weak at all. He saw so quickly that he was in a hopeless situation and did not struggle anymore. He is a courageous person. No wonder Tianxian Mansion is quite popular under his governance.
For prosperity.”
"Sir, would you like me to speak to Shopkeeper Feng and let us play a game of chess?" Shi Shan asked.
Lin Haoming waved his hand and said: "That He Chang is here, and Yuying is familiar with the other party. It is inconvenient. I originally planned to contact him secretly, but the master of the palace is always paying attention. That Jintai is also here. Unless Yuying reveals her identity, she will be invited alone.
Otherwise it would be inconvenient.”
"What should we do?" Shi Shan asked.
"How much do you know about He Chang?" Lin Haoming thought for a while and asked.
"My father spoke very highly of him!" Shi Shan replied.
"I heard my grandfather mention that this person is indeed a rare talent, and he has some contacts with my Lan family, but the backer behind this person is Shen Wu, the head of the Xing Palace, and his wife is Shen Wu's sister
Deep red." Lan Yuying said.
"Shen Wu, I have never seen this person, what do you know?" Lin Haoming asked.
"Shenwu became the lord of the Xingfu Palace. For Gaosheng, the city lord of the four towns in a single round, the time when he became the lord of the Xingfu Palace was before Huang Yunzhi. He was originally the city lord of Zhendong City, and He Chang was also in Zhendong City at that time.
, later he advanced in cultivation and became the head of the Xing Mansion, He Chang was also transferred here to take up the post, and my father left shortly after He Chang took office." Lan Yuying said.
"So it's only about ten thousand years. This person has nothing to do with what happened before!" Lin Haoming said.
"Indeed, Shen Wu has a good reputation after becoming the head of the Xing Palace, and he is known for his unyielding character. No matter who he is, he is always judged by the law." Lan Yuying said.
"Shenwu of the Xingfu!" Lin Haoming had actually thought about this person for a long time. It would have been very suitable for him to carry out such matters as trial cases, but Yue Qiong left everything to him, and even specially transferred him elsewhere. Lin Haoming doesn't think this is because Yue Qiong doesn't trust him. I'm afraid it's probably a way to confuse the Huang family. After all, this person is too upright and sometimes prone to bad things. After all, if this person cannot be controlled, given Yue Qiong's character, he will definitely He would not be put in his current position.
In this way, Shen Wu should be Yue Qiong's person, so He Chang should also be considered one of his own. Although he didn't originally intend to alarm anyone, it still depends on the situation.
Lin Haoming thought for a while and said: "Yuying, do you have anything that can let He Chang know your identity?"
"Of course I have this. I have a jade pendant given by He Chang on me. It was a meeting gift from He Chang who came to my home specially to see me after I returned from traveling to become the god of the underworld." Lan Yuying said.
"That's just right, Shi Shan, please run over later and ask He Chang to come over!" Lin Haoming ordered.
"Will this arouse Jin Tai's suspicion?" Shi Shan asked worriedly.
"He Chang will not stay here today. When he leaves, if you go again, just treat it as a junior who went to see him specially to pay tribute." Lin Haoming said.
"I understand!" Shi Shan agreed immediately.
While they were talking, the second game of chess began. Mrs. Yudai’s opponent was a famous grandmaster in Yubao Pavilion. This master was indeed a little better than He Chang in terms of chess ability, but his decisiveness was not as good as that of He Chang. In the middle of the game, Even though there was no hope, they still struggled to death and were finally killed in a great defeat.
Seeing that the time was almost up, Lin Haoming deliberately took Lan Yuying a step ahead and waited at the teahouse they had agreed upon.
Half an hour later, Shi Shan came over quietly and said everything was fine.
Then the three of them went to a mansion overnight.
Lan Yuying and Lin Haoming both came here after dressing up, so even if someone noticed something about the palace master and wanted to find out, it wouldn't be a matter of time, so Lin Haoming didn't care that much.
After entering the mansion, a woman asked about Shi Shan's situation and immediately led three people into a hall.
In the hall, He Chang is sitting in front of a chessboard. The position of the chess pieces on the chessboard is exactly the game he played with Mrs. Yudai during the day.
Seeing Lin Haoming and others arriving, He Chang also turned his attention away from the chessboard and waved to the woman to leave. Then he looked at Lan Yuying and said: "Miss Yuying, it has been thousands of years since we last said goodbye. We didn’t meet each other, but I didn’t expect that in just over ten thousand years, my cultivation would reach the Sixth Path, what a genius!”
"If grandpa hadn't given me a lot of good things, I wouldn't be where I am today. Moreover, my cultivation was too fast before, but now that I have to break through to the later stages, I feel that my foundation is unstable and I have to spend more time polishing the foundation."
"If ordinary people heard what you said, they would be ashamed to death. I wonder what Miss Yuying wants from me now?" He Chang asked straight to the point. Obviously he also knew that Lan Yuying was probably with Mingyue Pavilion. The mission comes.
But at this moment, Lin Haoming sat in front of the chessboard and said to He Chang: "Master He, how about we play a game?"
