After Liang Yan made a move, a white light flew out from the depths of the valley and placed a move on another position on the chessboard almost at the same time, as if he was facing him tit for tat.
Liang Yan seemed to have expected it. He made a secret with one hand and used the Purple Thunder Tianyin Sword to place pieces on the chessboard.
The two sides went back and forth, and suddenly they fought for more than ten moves. The situation of black's chess, which was originally trapped in the shallows with the dragon, changed, and the dragon actually took off, and the situation was reversed instantly.
boom!
After Liang Yan finally settled down, there was no movement in the valley for a long time, and no more white light flew out.
"Won?"
Wu Xin, who was watching the game, didn't know much about chess, but when she saw that there was no movement in the valley, she vaguely guessed something about it.
As soon as Wu Xin finished speaking, the chess pieces on the chessboard, black and white, began to spin rapidly on the spot. In just a moment, they all turned into a puff of smoke, and not a single chess piece remained.
"Good for you!"
Wuxin's face showed a hint of joy, and he couldn't help but praise him.
Liang Yan smiled slightly. In fact, he was also a little confused in his heart. Although this endgame seemed to be lifeless, there were actually ways to survive and it was not a fatal situation. It was precisely because of this that he was able to survive despite death.
But is such an endgame just to test the chess skills of those who enter the valley?
"It seems that all these questions can only be known after entering the valley."
Liang Yan thought to himself, then no longer hesitated, took Li Xiaosong with him in a ray of light, and flew towards the depths of the valley with Wu Xin.
The few people flew all the way without any obstacles on the way. After half a stick of incense, they finally arrived at the end of the valley.
To everyone's surprise, this place turned out to be an oasis, with a small clear lake in the middle, many unnamed green trees, and flowers and vines surrounding it.
Although these flowers and green trees are only sporadic, they are enough to surprise everyone.
You must know that they have entered the passage between the Yin and Yang realms. This is most likely the legendary underworld. How could these things exist?
"This place is very strange. The aura is several times more abundant than the outside world. Even in the world of cultivation, it is one of the best places in the cave. How could there be such a place in the underworld?" Wu Xin said with a slight frown on his brows.
Li Xiaosong's sharp eyes suddenly pointed to a pavilion at the back of the valley and shouted: "Look, there seem to be two people there!"
After hearing this, everyone turned their eyes and looked in the direction she pointed. Sure enough, they saw a pavilion made of stone, with two figures sitting opposite each other in the pavilion.
However, the two people did not move or make any sound. There was still a thin mist around the pavilion, which blocked everyone's sight and could not clearly see the appearance of the two people inside.
Liang Yan and Wu Xin both subconsciously released their spiritual consciousness to investigate, but could not feel any breath. They looked at each other and saw a trace of solemnity in each other's eyes.
Liang Yan took a step forward, held up his hands first and said, "Junior entered this place by mistake. I didn't know that the two seniors were here. I'm so nagging, so please forgive me!"
After he said this, he quietly waited for the other party's response. Unexpectedly, the figure in the pavilion remained motionless, as if he had not heard anything.
Several people looked at each other and were a little undecided for a moment. Liang Yan thought about it for a moment, and suddenly he made a bold guess.
He took Wuxin and Li Xiaosong and walked straight towards the pavilion. After a while, he passed through the fog and arrived in front of the pavilion.
After arriving here, everyone could clearly see the appearance of the two people.
The man on the left is a Confucian scholar, seven feet tall, with a dignified appearance, a tall hat, and white clothes. He is sitting cross-legged on a stone pier, bowing his head and thinking silently.
The one on the right is a demon with a black face and red beard, two horns on his head, and stern eyes. Although he is sitting still, he has a proud and domineering air emanating from him.
The man and the demon lowered their heads at the same time, looking at a stone table in the middle. The stone table was covered with nineteen black and white, and it turned out to be a chess game!
"Both of them seem to have passed away." Wu Xin said with some uncertainty.
"That's right." Liang Yan nodded, pointed to the stone pillars of the pavilion, and said, "Look there!"
Wu Xin looked in the direction he pointed and saw sixteen small characters carved on a stone pillar behind the two of them, which together read:
"Three years of fierce fighting, fighting for chess, meeting each other at a late date, and keeping company in the underworld."
Although it is only a short sixteen characters, it still allows people to guess the whole story.
"Humans and demons are old enemies. It is natural for these two seniors to fight each other. But in the end, they stopped fighting because of a chess match. They also left behind the words 'meeting at such a late age will lead to death'. That's right.
It’s really unbelievable.” Wu Xin said with some regret.
Liang Yan looked at the bodies of the two people, nodded and said: "It's hard to find a close friend in this world. It's God's blessing to find one. Even if there is someone, what's the difference between the devil and the devil?"
The speaker was unintentional, but the listener was intentional. Liang's words, "What's the point?" made the witch's heart skip a beat, her beautiful eyes shimmered, and there was a strange brilliance in her eyes.
"Smelly brother, is this what you're thinking?" Wu Xin asked from behind him.
However, Liang Yan's attention was not on her, and he naturally ignored her question. He was currently looking at the stone pillar with the inscription.
I saw that below the sixteen small characters, there were actually two signatures.
The signature on the left is: Lu Beiyou.
On the right is written: Demonic layman.
"Lu Beiyou, Lu Beiyou. Why is this name so familiar, but I just can't remember it for a moment?" Liang Yan frowned slightly and fell into deep thought.
Seeing that he was silent, Wu Xin thought he was deliberately avoiding his question, so he couldn't help but pouted and cursed secretly: "You heartless little brother, I have been practicing the magic of bewitching demons for hundreds of years. I really don't believe it."
I can’t take down your little brother who has been practicing Taoism for more than ten years!”
Thinking of this, the witch curled her lips, and a smile appeared on her face unconsciously.
However, when she was about to tease Liang Yan again, she saw Liang Yan suddenly slap her forehead and said as if he suddenly realized:
"Why am I so stupid that I forgot who he is? Haha! Lu Beiyou. Lu Beiyou is Master Yixing, and Master Yixing is Lu Beiyou. This is the founder of Yixing Pavilion!"
After hearing his words, the witch was slightly startled, and then asked: "Is this white-faced scholar the founder of Yixing Pavilion?"
"good!"
Liang Yan turned around, looked at Wu Xin and said: "The founder of Yixing Pavilion is known as the master of chess. It is said that hundreds of years after Yixing Pavilion was created, the situation in Nanchui became stable, so he left the sect and traveled around the world.
, even his disciples and grandchildren did not know the whereabouts of this person, and some people even speculated that he might have left Nanchui. Unexpectedly, such a famous figure actually went to hell with a demon and sat under the Nine Netherworld.
