After bidding farewell to Han Youdao, Su Ming walked toward the Burning Flame Peak. At the foot of the mountain, stood a woman wearing a red robe. This person was Yan Juxiong, who was competing with Su Ming today. Seeing Su Ming leave,
Come on, Yan Juxiong just smiled blankly.
"Walk!"
Su Ming's simple word was a greeting, but Yan Juxiong didn't say anything and followed Su Ming.
The two walked out of the mountain gate of Yuxu Peak and walked towards the town at the foot of the mountain until they reached a restaurant.
"Hey, guest sir, who are you?"
The waiter called the two of them in, took off the cloth strips on his body, and wiped the table in front of him.
"Two people! Phew."
Su Ming moved a stool and placed it opposite him, signaling Yan Juxiong to sit down. After getting ready, he sat opposite Yan Juxiong, picked up the tea brewed in front of him, blew on it, and drank it in one gulp.
"You two, what would you like to eat?" the waiter asked.
"Whatever good food is served, we are all hungry!" Su Ming said.
"This..." The waiter looked at what Su Ming and Su Ming were wearing. Although they were not dressed like a wealthy family, they were not luxurious either. The waiter was hard to figure out for a moment.
"Go quickly!" Su Ming took out a few copper coins from the ring and threw them to the waiter and said.
"Okay! Wait a moment, you two. The wine and food will be here soon!" The waiter weighed a few copper coins and said with a grin.
Not long after, the table was filled with dishes. Yan Juxiong moved his index finger and his unimpressed stomach began to growl.
"Stop looking and use your chopsticks." Su Ming looked at Yan Juxiong who was about to drool and said.
As soon as he finished speaking, Yan Juxiong was seen moving his bows from left to right, and the food was decreasing at a speed that could be seen with the naked eye. The speed shocked Su Ming, and at the same time, the surrounding guests were stunned.
"Look, the girl is hungry. She hasn't eaten for several days." The man at the next table sighed and looked at Yan Juxiong with pity.
"Hey, slow down, don't choke. That's a bowl you can't eat..."
"Okay, waiter, serve the food..."
The dishes on the table were filled one after another, and the plates were removed again and again. Su Ming was helpless and puzzled. Why couldn't Yan Juxiong's belly bulge with so much food? This was because of eating.
Where has it gone?
"Huh, hiccup! Haha."
Yan Juxiong let out a long breath, touched his unswelled belly, burped with satisfaction, and smiled innocently at Su Ming.
This meal really shocked Su Ming. He had never seen anything so delicious. After paying the bill, Su Ming touched his deflated wallet and felt very distressed. He felt sorry for his own wallet.
The two of them walked towards the sect. Su Ming looked at the naive Yan Juxiong and asked, "Are you usually so good at eating?"
"No, the master usually rations the meals and doesn't let me eat too much because he's afraid that I'll be full." Yan Juxiong scratched his head and said with a smile.
"Is it okay if you eat so much today?" Su Ming asked tentatively.
"It's okay. If you treat me to dinner today, I won't tell the master, hehe." Yan Juxiong said with a smile.
"You silly girl, I'm not afraid that your master will find out, I'm afraid that you'll last." Su Ming said.
Su Ming may not know that Yan Juxiong had two younger brothers and a younger sister in her original home. As an older sister, she was responsible for all the hard work and food for her younger siblings.
It is common to be hungry and full every day. If there is a famine, she will be hungry for several days. That's why she has this problem. She will keep eating when she can, regardless of whether she can still eat.
I'm afraid of getting hungry when I don't have anything to eat.
Tang Chong also discovered this problem of Yan Juxiong, so he set a meal limit for her. To be honest, Tang Chong still took good care of her. Yan Juxiong also knew that if Tang Chong hadn't picked her up, he would probably marry her casually.
Get married, give birth to a baby, and live a normal life.
The two of them chatted and returned to Yuxu Peak. Before leaving, Su Ming said to Yan Juxiong: "Silly girl, come to me when you are hungry from now on. The food may not be enough, but the food will satisfy you."
Yan Juxiong nodded with a naive smile, watched Su Ming go away, stroked his belly with one hand, and murmured in a low voice: "I'll have a good meal, I'll remember it."
The quiet hall echoed with the sound of chess pieces falling on the chessboard.
"clatter!"
"clatter!"
The two black and white stones landed on the chessboard and made a crisp sound!
Not long after he parted ways with Yan Juxiong, Su Ming was called up to the peak by the disciples of Xingyi Peak, just to play chess with Zuo Ziqing. No, he had been playing for several hours.
After maybe three sticks of incense, Su Ming wiped the sweat from his forehead due to exertion.
Looking at the situation occupied by black stones on the chessboard, even if the chess master reincarnated, there would be no way to save the day. Su Ming had no choice but to take out two white stones and place them on the chessboard.
"Master Zuo Peak, your "rush" move just now was really wonderful. It directly blocked my half of the white chess piece. I wanted to "block" it here but it was too late. Su Ming admires it very much!"
"Little Su Ming, your chess skills have deteriorated a bit!" After listening, Zuo Ziqing picked up the teacup on the table and took a sip.
"Master Zuo Feng's chess skills have improved too quickly. I'm still at the same level as before. I'm ashamed!"
"Ha ha ha ha!"
Su Ming's compliments were very useful to Zuo Ziqing. Zuo Ziqing put down his teacup and raised his eyebrows and said, "How about another dish?"
"Okay, let's play again!"
The bright moon was in the sky, and the bright moonlight shone in the main hall of Xingyi Peak. The swaying candlelight reflected the figures of the two people. The moonlight and the candlelight formed a contrast. It was already midnight.
In the end, Zuo Ziqing, holding the black piece, defeated the five pieces, ending the chess game.
"Master Zuo Peak, no matter how "trapped" I am with the trend of your big dragon, you will always have a solution. I'm willing to give in!"
"Hahaha!" Looking at Su Ming's respectful eyes, Zuo Ziqing put the black pieces in his hand back into the chess box.
"Come on next!"
For those who regard chess as their destiny, it is rare to encounter an "evenly matched" opponent like Su Ming. How could Zuo Ziqing let him go?
In this way, the two of them slept all night long.
Just as Su Ming was thinking about the purpose of Zuo Ziqing's forty-seventh move, Zuo Ziqing looked at the slightly rising sun outside, then looked at the slightly tired Su Ming and said, "Let's go down first today.
Here, you go back first."
"Ah? Yes, it can obviously stick to the eyes, so why is it blocked?" Su Ming muttered softly.
"Don't think about it, we have to compete later!" Zuo Ziqing said.
Su Ming separated the black and white pieces, put them into the chess box and said, "It's a competition. There's no need to go. Master Han and I told him to abstain."
"Why did you think of giving up?" Zuo Ziqing said looking at Su Ming who was collecting his chess pieces.
"You know my cultivation even if I don't tell you."
"That's right, I told you before that I asked you to come to my peak, but you didn't listen. It would be nice to play a game of chess without any problem." Zuo Ziqing picked up a fan to fan himself.
After putting away the chess pieces, Su Ming bowed to Zuo Ziqing and said, "Junior, please go back first. Master Zuo Peak should also pay attention to rest."
When he walked out of the room, he saw Wen Zixin walking towards him. Seeing that it was Su Ming who had come out, he stepped forward and said hello: "Junior Brother Su, you worked hard against the Peak Master all night long."
"It's not hard work. This is my blessing. Senior brother, please go to work first and I won't disturb you."
"Go ahead."
douxiantai
"Su Ming of Ningxu Peak, who did not arrive at Douxian Terrace on time, will be deemed to have given up!"
After calling Su Ming three times, Du Zidan saw no sign of Su Ming, so he issued a notice that Su Ming would abstain.
"Why isn't Senior Brother Su here?" After hearing this, Du Nianxi went to Yin Hexuan and asked.
"I don't know either. Let's go and have a look after I finish the comparison," Yin Hexuan said.
At this time, Su Ming was catching up on his sleep in the cave. Playing chess all night long was really tiring.
