Fairies Are Fierce

Chapter 259 Playing Chess

thunderbolt--

The dazzling lightning flashed across the sea of ​​gloomy clouds, and large raindrops rolled down, hitting the muddy ground and forming a stream. The muddy mud was washed away, revealing an old man in linen robes and an old bronze sword stuck at his side.

Why aren't you dead yet...

Lao Lu was covered in blood, lying in the mud, looking at the dark sky, with deep confusion in his eyes.

When he was young, Lao Lu felt that he was favored by God and that God wanted him to do something big, so that he could turn danger into safety every time he was in desperate situations.

But now he is old and frail, his mood is ruined, he no longer wants to practice swordsmanship, and he will not die when he deserves to die. God allows him to live, but does not give him a way to live. What does it mean?

Don't you want to be freed so easily?

Lao Lu thought like this, and recalled the extremely beautiful past. For him who now had nothing, he didn't dare to think about the past. The more he thought about it, the more he felt that he was nothing.

The ground around me was shaking, but there was no outsider to disturb me, and there was no distinction between day and night. I don't know how long this thought lasted, until the soft sound of flapping wings was heard in the distance.

Puff puff--

Lao Lu looked out of the corner of his eye and saw a white bird flying from the rain curtain and landing on the hilt of the Huangquan Sword. It lowered its head and looked at him with bright black eyes, "Chichi!" he shouted, although he couldn't understand it. Birds singing, but I can roughly understand the meaning:

"The birds are looking for you everywhere, but you are sleeping here. Do you know how far the birds have flown? Huh?"

Under the wash of rain, the khaki fluffy wings disguised by Tuanzi turned white again, like a wet white chicken. Although the old man felt that he could not eat enough, he still opened the wings with the intention of giving it a try. The beak asks for errand fees.

The earth-shattering sword strike that Old Lu wielded in the Fire Scythe Valley had already squeezed out the last bit of energy from his body. Even if no one came to help him, he would have to rest for several years afterwards. What's more, with the power of the jade shattering, even he could He was exposed to the strike range, and his injuries were so severe that even breathing felt like torture.

However, compared with the mental torture, the physical pain is nothing. After traveling alone for thousands of miles, Lao Lu has long been accustomed to this. He slowly sat up, looked at the little bird on the top of the sword hilt, thought about it, and touched it from his sleeve. A wild fruit with rich aura came out and was thrown to Tuanzi.

Tuanzi's slight dissatisfaction immediately disappeared. After performing three mouthfuls and one fruit, he pointed his wings to the south and signaled Lao Lu to come over.

With a spiritual bird beside him, Lao Lu finally broke free from the torment of his soul and looked at the surrounding world.

He was on the shore of a large lake, and the towering mountain peak could no longer be seen; the lake surface was in the shape of a yin-yang fish, with a stone embankment in the middle, which was obviously artificially built. Some broken walls of ancient buildings could also be seen on the lakeside. There is a small temple in the wall.

What the hell place...

Lao Lu is not too old to practice Taoism. In the eyes of Shangguan Yutang and other ancestors, he is actually a leader of the younger generation like Zuo Lingquan and Shangguan Lingye. However, he has also been in Central Continent for half his life. I’ve been to every corner, but I don’t remember such a place in Central Continent.

When I was young, I traveled around and entered many secret realms by mistake, but this was the first time I saw a secret realm that was about to collapse.

After scanning for a week, Lao Lu used his sword as a crutch and staggered to the ruined temple by the lake, which was still intact. He looked up and saw that it was exactly the same as the mountain where Zuo Lingquan was located, and it also enshrined a big-antlered deer.

Tuanzi felt that Quanquan was cooing with the nanny, so he was not in a hurry to go back. He landed on the head of the big-horned deer and spread his wings to look like a phoenix spreading its wings, which roughly means:

"Niaoniao also wants to make a statue like this, do you think it's appropriate?"

Tuanzi was blessed by heaven, and not even Shangguan Ancestor could see the truth at a glance, let alone Lao Lu.

As a native of the Central Continent, Lao Lu knew that the statue in front of him represented that god, and he raised his hand gently and said:

"Come down quickly. This is the statue of the Lord of the Central Continent. If you stand on his head and jump around, I'll be pissed off but I can't stop you."

Tuanzi was not even afraid of the Lord of Central Continent, so how could he be afraid of a big stone that had long lost its spiritual consciousness? However, seeing that Lao Lu was very respectful, Tuanzi still flew down.

The five elements of Lao Lu are close to the earth, and the fairy sword Huangquan in his hand is the fairy weapon embryo that has been buried under the earth for countless years and gave birth to the sword spirit on its own. In order to cultivate a serious fairy weapon, Lao Lu has traveled all over the world, all in Looking for Law Treasure opportunities related to the Land of Five Elements, he knows much more about this than ordinary monks.

Lao Lu walked around the ruined temple, and gradually figured out the doorway of this place from some strokes and ancient writings.

I remember that when he first got the Underworld Sword, in order to find the heavenly materials and earthly treasures related to the land of the five elements, the first thing he thought of was the local god Qilin in the Central Continent.

I once looked around and looked through ancient books, and in the ancient books in the palace of Caiyi Kingdom in the north, I found a book called "Mountains and Rivers Miracles", which recorded various messy legends, including records about Qilin.

It is said that the Central Continent sand sea was an oasis in ancient times. The Lord of the Central Continent, who transformed into a seven-colored deer, used it as his nest and was worshiped by all people with incense.

Colorful deer, like ordinary deer, will change their antlers, but only once every thousand years.

The antlers of the Seven-Colored Deer are of the same high grade as the wings of the Stealing Pill and the dragon scales of the East. The dragon scales and wings can be used to refine immortal weapons, such as the Black Tortoise shield and dragon scale skirt carried by Shangguan Ancestor. Ask the gods for opportunities; the special thing about deer antlers is that they can also be used medicinally.

It is carried by the Lord of the Five Elements. The antlers of the Lord of the Central Continent are used as medicine to quench the Body Refining soul. The effect can be described as reborn; if it is refined into a natal object, it will be lower than the Dragon King of the Four Seas and the Five Beasts of the Great Heaven. In the first stage, the natal soil is directly perfected, and you no longer have to worry about it in this life.

After seeing the record, Lao Lu naturally went to the Sand Sea to search with great interest. Unfortunately, the past oasis has turned into the Dead Sea after thousands of years of changes. Later, from some oral stories, he learned that the master of Central Continent, Lao Lu, It was disturbed by others and moved away, leaving only an empty nest, which was called the 'Kilin Cave'.

It’s not a bad thing that the Lord of the Central Continent is gone. At least the monks don’t have to worry about being trampled to death by the gods if they enter rashly. There may still be some treasures of heaven and earth left in the lair. Not to mention antlers and deer whips, even if they leave a deer hair, they are still the Lord of the Central Continent. Deer hair, it is not easy to make a Law Treasure.

It's a pity that for thousands of years, no one has found any traces, and the legend has become nonsense. Lao Lu didn't find it in the end, so he thought it was a fabricated rumor.

But the place where we are now is very similar to the Kirin Cave in the legendary records.

Lao Lu held the hilt of his sword with both hands, looked at the gradually crumbling world outside the temple, and said unexpectedly:

"Could this be the Kirin Grotto-Heaven?"

This sentence was said to himself, and he didn't expect to get a response from Tuanzi.

However, Tuanzi was very polite and answered all questions, "Chi Chi." Two times, it was taken as saying: "It used to be, but now it is the territory of birds."

When Lao Lu received the confirmation, he was quite excited at first, but after a moment, he shook his head and sighed:

"If you plant flowers intentionally, they will not bloom, but if you plant willows unintentionally, they will create shade. So what if you find the antlers now? If you extend your life span for another five hundred years, you will have to suffer the sin of another five hundred years."

"Chi~" Tuanzi opened his beak, indicating that you don't want to find anything for the bird to eat.

Lao Lu thought about it. He also had an incompetent closed-door disciple who was known as the "Two Poles of the Barren Mountain" together with the Lord of the Barren Mountain. He didn't want to leave such a thing to future generations. He couldn't turn a blind eye to the matter of bending down to pick it up.

Thinking of this, Lao Lu pulled up the broken bamboo hat on his back and covered his head. Together with Tuanzi, he stepped into the dim world where the rain was pouring.

As for where to look, Lao Lu has no clear direction. Looking for opportunities has always been like this. If you are lucky, you will encounter it. If you are not lucky, no matter how much theory you have, it will be in vain. When you get to a place like this, no matter how high your realm is, you have to be like Xie Qiutao. Just follow your feelings. Walk.

As a small world created by the gods, Qilin Cave is not as vast as the small world Azure Dragon pulled Zuo Lingquan into, but it is still larger than the man-made small world like Iron Arrow Grotto-Heaven. Based on visual inspection, it is probably several thousand miles in diameter.

Lao Lu was seriously injured and could not walk fast, but no one dared to come in easily. He was not in a hurry. He walked and watched, looking for any clues about Qilin's lair.

But just because people from outside don't dare to come in for the time being, it doesn't mean that they are the only living people here.

After walking with Tuanzi for an unknown amount of time, Lao Lu came to the foot of a collapsed hill.

The hill seemed to have been smashed by something falling from the sky, and its original appearance could no longer be seen, but among the dirt and gravel, many grains of weathered sand found only in the desert and broken branches of peach trees could be seen.

"Lin Zifeng?"

Lao Lu's expression changed slightly, he held the hilt of his sword and came forward, quickly explored up and down the collapsed hill, and finally found a circular pit among the ruins.

There were some rags of clothes and blood stains at the bottom of the pit, but the body that was supposed to be lying in it was gone...

——

Bang bang bang——

The raindrops were like soybeans, hitting the thick stone wall, making a crisp sound like jade beads falling on a plate.

Zuo Lingquan and Shangguan Lingye were sitting outside the dilapidated building that was supposed to be the sect's main hall, leaning against the pillars and looking at the magnificent picture outlined by the electric light on the horizon.

The ancient sect built on the mountain is not small. After Tuanzi left, Zuo Lingquan and Shangguan Lingye walked around the sect together, thinking about searching for some lost ancient objects.

It's a pity that the traces that people can leave cannot withstand the erosion of endless years. The formation is like this, and the books are like this. The only thing that can prove the glory of the past is these broken stones that can be seen everywhere.

Some buildings in the sect can still be recognized, such as the Hidden Sword Pavilion, the Patriarch Hall, etc., but they have all collapsed, leaving only the roadbed, and the only cultivation objects that can be found are lumps with no original appearance.

After walking around for a while, the two found nothing, so they lost interest. They chose a place that could shelter from the rain and waited for the world to return to stability.

Under the collapse of the sky and the earth, the spiritual energy is changing and chaos is everywhere. Randomly mobilizing the spiritual energy of heaven and earth is likely to bring about immeasurable chain reactions. For the sake of safety, the two people do not need to sit cross-legged and Qi Refining. All they can do at the moment is to rely on Drink and chat together to pass the boring time that will not be too long.

The thunder clouds are dense, like thousands of thunder dragons parading in the sea of ​​clouds; the heavy rain is like a waterfall, and the crisp crackling sound becomes the music played by the heaven and the earth. Under this situation, the artistic conception is very suitable for drinking.

The small wine table made of mahogany is placed between two pillars, with a black and white chessboard on it.

There is a red carpet on the ground. The disguise is meaningless. The beautiful woman in the phoenix skirt has changed into a gorgeous palace dress. She lazily supports the side of her face with her hands and leans on the small table. She holds a white child in her hand and turns it between her fingers. Play around.

Zuo Lingquan finally pulled off the beard that was getting in the way of licking Wanwan, and returned to the appearance of a gentle and elegant nobleman. He held a black man in his right hand and a wine bowl in his left hand. He sat next to the small wine table, and his brows showed a confident attitude. , dropped a piece on the chessboard.

Snapped--

"Five sons in a row, Empress Dowager, you have lost again."

After speaking, he looked at the beauty in palace clothes opposite with a smile.

Shangguan Lingye's cheeks were blushing slightly, his eyebrows were slightly frowned, and he was slightly dissatisfied. He stared at the chess game for a moment, and then threw the white piece into the chess basket:

"It's boring. The art of playing chess is broad and profound, and one can get a glimpse of human nature in the smallest details. It is one of the compulsory courses in the sect. But the sect will not teach such children to play. If we have the ability, can we really play a game?"

Zuo Lingquan has practiced martial arts since he was a child. At best, he is devoted to kendo. At worst, he is not doing his job properly. He is not good at playing chess, calligraphy and painting. He is no match for Shangguan Lingye in real chess. He said seriously:

"Those who are cultivating must be willing to accept defeat. The queen offered to play chess to pass the time. I said to play backgammon, and the queen agreed. She said that to add some luck, she would take off one piece of clothing every time she lost. The queen also confidently agreed, but now she has to break her promise. Can’t do it?”

"..."

Shangguan Lingye's beautiful eyes showed a bit of reluctance, but in the end he didn't miss a word, slightly bent his legs, and put his hands under the hem of his skirt, rustling.

Zuo Lingquan's eyes were free of any evil thoughts and he stared at Shangguan Lingye's skirt seriously. Unfortunately, Shangguan Lingye was not happy about losing and didn't want to show it to him. The skirt was tightly covered. After a while, he took out a piece and rolled it up. The black stockings were thrown on his chest:

"continue."

Zuo Lingquan took over the black stockings with lingering warmth and fragrance, resisted the urge not to smell them, put them by his side, shook his head and said:

"Empress Toffee, we agreed to take off one piece of clothing at a time. You take off your shoes first, and then your socks..."

Shangguan Lingye raised his eyes: "Have you ever said that you can't take it off from the inside out? There are so many things to do, if you don't like it, you won't take it off."

"Hey, that's not what I meant, keep going."

Zuo Lingquan swept the chess piece into the chess basket with an inexplicable smile in his eyes. After all, both socks were gone. If he lost again, even if he took them off from the inside out, he would still be taking off pantyhose or panties with very little material. He wanted to see where Shangguan Lingye dared to start.

Black and white moves, two or three moves in a blink of an eye.

Zuo Lingquan had a sure chance of winning, but as the games continued, he felt something was wrong - his opponent's chess skills had become stronger, and he was not fooled, and he could see through his three-character continuum that concealed murderous intent at a glance.

Zuo Lingquan concentrated, no longer took it lightly, and started planning seriously, hoping to lure Shangguan Lingye into the trap he had carefully arranged; if he was not playing backgammon, judging from his calm and calm temperament, he would really look like someone playing chess with an expert. young national players.

Shangguan Lingye has been very smart since he was a child. He was born in a wealthy fairy family and is in charge of the Demon Hunting Department. He has already become proficient in this kind of self-cultivation and intelligence training, not to mention a hundred years of experience. If she doesn't want to lose, how can she lose? A brat under twenty years old, he just gave Zuo Lingquan a taste of sweetness. If he loses again, he will have to get rid of the real thing.

But it is a pity that backgammon does not rely on cultivation to fight. The rules are too simple for practitioners. Zuo Lingquan is not a stupid person. If both of them are serious, it is not easy to decide the winner.

The two of you attacked and I defended for a long time, forcing the chessboard to be full, and finally it was a draw.

Shangguan Lingye looked at the full chessboard and threw the pieces into the basket:

"A draw, what's the calculation now?"

According to the rules, harmony is a tie, and the two should start a new round.

But Zuo Lingquan felt that it would not be easy to win Shangguan Lingye again, so he put down the pawn and looked at the enchanting beauty opposite:

"If you don't win or lose, wouldn't it be a waste of time, or if you draw, you'll lose all, and we'll all take one piece off, it's fair and just."

As he spoke, he untied his robe and placed it next to him.

? ?

shameless……

Shangguan Lingye was stunned. He didn't expect that Zuo Lingquan could come up with such a shameless suggestion. She picked up the wine bowl and took a sip, saying displeasedly:

"You have a beautiful idea. I haven't lost, so why should I take it off?"

"Your Majesty didn't win, did you? As a monk, if you don't do meaningless things, it's the same as if a thief doesn't go empty-handed. You have to leave something behind, don't you think?"

This is not without reason.

But Shangguan Lingye only had these few clothes on her body, and it would be wrong to take them off anywhere, how could she agree, she snorted softly:

“Either you start over or you don’t play anymore.”

Zuo Lingquan shook his head seriously and said seriously:

"My Highness, the most taboo thing for practitioners is to leave knots in their hearts. I don't want to see your Majesty take off her clothes. I just feel that your Majesty must keep her word, so as not to recall this matter in the future and feel that she is indebted and that her thoughts cannot be understood..." ..."

Jiliguala...

Shangguan Lingye saw Zuo Lingquan telling lies with his eyes open, and wanted to splash him with wine, but she couldn't do such a move. After being nagged for a while, she seemed to have no choice, and put down the wine bowl heavily, holding her hand Stretched into the placket.

!

Zuo Lingquan paused, and sat upright, ready for battle.

Shangguan Lingye poked his hands into Feng's skirt and found Zuo Lingquan staring at her intently, frowned and said:

"What are you looking at?"

"hehe……"

Zuo Lingquan coughed lightly, picked up the wine bowl, and looked away.

But the moment he looked away, he heard a "da--" in his ear, as if the lace had been torn off.

Zuo Lingquan quickly turned his head, only to see a piece of thin black fabric flying towards his face, blocking his vision. It had a faint fragrance, with a refreshing milk fragrance.

! !

Zuo Lingquan's heart moved, and he quickly pulled down the fabric on his face and looked at the concubine opposite, only to see Shangguan Lingye sitting sideways beside the small case, putting his hands behind his neck to tie the rope, and the bulging skirt of his clothes was completely intact. There is no wrinkle at all, let alone spring, and the movement is incredible.

"So fast?! No... How can you put it on again after taking it off? This is against the rules."

"What's the use of you saying I'm dressed? Who told you not to say it in advance?"

Shangguan Lingye's tone was calm, but his face was still flushed, whether it was from alcohol or something else.

Zuo Lingquan moved too slowly. He couldn't fault Shangguan Lingye when he saw this. He lowered his head and glanced at the fabric in his hand - silky black flower carp. You could still feel a little residual warmth. There were hollow laces on the edges, and The stockings are a complete set, even if you don't wear them, you can still feel the charm of wearing them.

Games are games, after all, Shangguan Lingye is the daughter of a man who has not yet fulfilled the love between a man and a woman. It is not the first time that his socks were taken away, but when he gave these intimate clothes to Zuo Lingquan, he couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed and resentful in his heart.

Shangguan Lingye originally wanted to admit defeat and turned his head to ignore it, but when he thought about it carefully, he felt that something was wrong - he took off his clothes if he lost, and he didn't say that he would give the clothes to the opponent if he lost. Why did she leave it to Zuo Lingquan?

Thinking of this, Shangguan Lingye raised his hand to take Huajianli back.

But no matter how much Zuo Lingquan liked it, he would not carefully observe and taste it in front of Shangguan Lingye. After glancing at it, he threw all the things around him into Linglong Pavilion like he was packing up debris, and began to clean up the chess pieces:

"Keep going, this time we agreed in advance that you can't wear it again after you take it off, otherwise it's just cheating."

The tie has to be taken off together, Shangguan Lingye continues to play chess, and really has to drink with Zuo Lingquan naked, how can he agree? He shook his head decisively and said:

"It's boring, no more."

Zuo Lingquan was in high spirits, but he couldn't let his opponent run away. He tried to persuade Shangguan Lingquan to continue playing chess with him.

But after a while of hard work, Shangguan Lingye had not changed his mind. Zuo Lingquan suddenly discovered that a thunderbolt fell at the bottom of the cliff, making a loud bang.

bang——

The thunder sounded very close, as if it had struck something. It was completely different from other distant thunders.

Both of their expressions were condensed, and they both looked at the dim rain curtain outside the mountain...
