"Knowing ......" "Knowing-"

At this moment, only the autumn cicadas on the trees, the wind on the mountain, and the waves on the river bank dare to make a sound so unscrupulously.

Compared to before, there is actually no difference on this stone platform.

But Mu Ningshuang and the others who were standing behind Li Bai didn't dare to move, even the sound of breathing was reduced to a minimum.

It's a kind of reverence that comes from the depths of the blood, just as a mouse meets a cat, a wild deer meets a lion and a tiger, and it doesn't need any reason at all.

The old abbot of the Rotten Ke Temple is even more so, he has grown up in this mountain since he was a child, and he has served this Heavenly Dao endgame since he was a child, and he has a certain sense of Heavenly Dao, which has long been deep in the bone marrow.

Although there was nothing in front of Li Yunsheng, he knew that he was sitting there at the moment.

He never imagined that one day, he would be so close to that person, and this feeling of being watched by the Heavenly Dao made him afraid, excited, and made him cry.

"Yoyo. ”

At this moment, Li Yunsheng suddenly turned his head to look at Xu Youyou.

"Huh?"

Xu Youyou, who was still in a state of flux, looked at Li Yunsheng blankly.

"Come here. ”

Li Yunsheng smiled and beckoned to her, and then patted the stone bench on the side:

"Take a good look at this game. ”

"Hmm!"

Xu Youyou's eyes lit up, and he immediately understood Li Yunsheng's intentions, and immediately handed over Sang Xiaoman, who was about to be leading, to Mu Ningshuang on the side.

"Uh-huh......"

However, Sang Xiaoman, who looked like a little girl, broke free from Mu Ningshuang's hand, came to Li Yunsheng first, and then sat comfortably in his arms.

Li Yunsheng didn't say anything, just gently rubbed her little head.

When Xu Youyou sat down, Li Yunsheng's eyes looked at the opposite side again.

For a while, the stone platform was quiet again, and there was only the sound of "Zhizhi" cicadas and "whirring" in everyone's ears again.

Black didn't lose his first move for a long time, but no one was surprised that it should be.

"Smack...... Click. ”

In silence, after almost half a pillar of incense, black finally fell to the first piece.

The mood of the people, who had just calmed down, was once again excited.

Black's first disc, three threes on the top right.

Li Yunsheng's expression was still unwavering.

"Smack. ”

Without thinking, he pulled out a white piece from the chessbox, and then landed in the lower left corner of the chessboard, then withdrew his hand and looked at the empty opposite side with a blank face.

I don't know if it's an illusion, but as Li Yunsheng's particle fell, the emotions in everyone's hearts with a little awe and excitement suddenly calmed down.

It's as if the momentum emanating from the person who "sits" on the opposite side of the chessboard has converged a little with Li Yunsheng's son.

"Smack. ”

The third hand didn't wait long, and the sunspot landed on the upper left eyelet.

Next, the black and white pieces began to lay out the pieces on the chessboard step by step, without much waves.

And it is precisely because of this uneventful situation that Xu Youyou and Dongfang Yu, who are also chess masters, feel full of horror - how could the "Heavenly Dao" on the opposite side of the chessboard ever be so cautious?

"Only Master was truly regarded as an opponent by the Heavenly Dao. ”

Xu Youyou looked at the chessboard in a daze, and muttered to himself in an inaudible voice.

"Write down this game of chess and let the world see it. ”

Abbot Changle, whose mind had returned to calm, flashed a thought in his heart for no reason. He knew very well that he had studied the Dharma for hundreds of years, and it was impossible for him to have such unprovoked thoughts in his heart, but he felt that this must be the will of Heaven.

I saw him take out a palm-sized moon shadow stone from his sleeve, and then sacrifice it with spiritual power, flying to the top of Rotten Ke Mountain.

Suddenly, on this rotten Ke Mountain, the virtual image of Li Yunsheng sitting in front of the chessboard spread all over the ten states.

And the others did not stop his move, after all, Li Yunsheng's game of chess was originally played for Shizhou.

......

Dragon Palace, ascending to the roof.

"It's really Mr. Yunsheng. ”

"Brother Xiao Che and Big Brother Tai are also there. ”

"Sure enough, he went to Rotten Keshan. ”

The current Dragon Emperor Ao Xie worries, as well as Tuoba Dry Tiller, who is not able to turn into a dragon, and Xiaobai and Yu Yan stand on the stage, quietly looking at the virtual image above.

Yanzhou, Sang's small courtyard.

"It turns out that he secretly ran out from me just to see that Li Yunsheng!"

Nangong Yue, who lived in the Sang family, looked at Xiao Che in the virtual image and pouted.

"After so many years, Uncle Yun and Xiao Xiaoman don't seem to have changed at all. ”

After seeing the virtual image of Li Yunsheng and Sang Xiaoman sitting in his pocket, Zhang Lian'er said with joy on his face.

"Hmph, it's getting more and more impersonal. ”

Qingluo on the side pouted.

"Don't say that, Master. ”

Tang Beidou, who was standing next to him, took Qingluo's hand and shook it.

"Having said it, the public, don't pull it. ”

Qingluo's face turned red and shook off Beidou's hand.

Beidou smiled innocently.

"I don't know how my brother and cousin came over all these years. ”

Next to the stone table in the courtyard, Zhao Xuanjun looked up at the sky and muttered while rubbing a rusty long sword on the table.

"I'm sorry for him. ”

The gray-haired old man sighed bitterly.

"Have you found all your swords?"

Zhai Lao looked down at Zhao Xuanjun.

"It's all back, and then I will set up the Ten Thousand Swords Great Array in Yanzhou, and then the Heavenly Demon Luo will gather, so there is no need to worry. ”

Zhao Xuanjun's eyes flickered.

In the rest of the ten states, many people no longer recognized Li Yunsheng, and they didn't know the existence of the Heavenly Dao endgame in Rotten Keshan, so there was a brief panic after the virtual image appeared.

After the panic subsided, gradually some monks recognized Mu Ningshuang, Chen Tai'a, Xiao Che, and Li Yunsheng.

And some of the monks who were proficient in chess theory even understood the game of chess above the void image of the sky, and understood who was "sitting" on the empty seat opposite Li Yunsheng.

For a time, the ten states turned from panic to boiling, and everyone rushed to watch this legendary game between man and sky.

On the streets of Cloud Whale City in Yanzhou.

"As small as us, you can also play against the Heavenly Dao?"

A gray-haired and clothed fallen monk suddenly burst into tears when he looked at the black and white sides on the chessboard, and suddenly burst into tears inexplicably.

No one knows the power of the Heavenly Dao better than him, who has experienced the taste of the Fallen Realm.

Now when I suddenly found that there was really someone in this world who could sit and play against Heavenly Dao on an equal footing, the unwillingness and grievances that had accumulated in my heart were all released at once.

At this moment, in all corners of the ten states, there are not a few monks who have the same idea as him.

However, just like the Mu Ningshuang on Rotten Ke Mountain, after a short period of excitement and excitement, people's eyes began to gradually fall on the chess game itself.

People who have regained their composure find that aside from the identities of the two sides of the game, the beginning of this game of chess is actually a bit flat.

This blandness lasted until the forty-fifth move of White.

In a not too complicated situation, the sudden tiger of white chess made Xu Youyou, who was present, and the monks who watched the chess in the ten states were all confused.

Because no matter how you look at it, it's a losing move.

The sunspot quickly seized on this losing move and encroached on a large open space on the side of white.

From this point on, the situation on the chessboard began to reverse like a tsunami towards black.

The astonishing pursuit of black chess made everyone feel a burst of despair, and this despair was like being in darkness without a trace of light, making it impossible to find a way out and hope.

"The gap between man and heaven may be like this, no matter how strong a person is, he will always make a losing move. ”

In desperation, some monks couldn't help but accept their fate.

And this is also what most people think when they face a desperate situation, they can't face it and accept their fate, and even many people feel down-to-earth because of this, they only feel that this is the reality, the previous situation between Li Yunsheng and Tiandao on the chessboard is too dreamy and too false.

So even though black and white played a few more amazing moves, the expressions on the faces of the spectators were very numb, at least in their hearts, they had been defeated by the "black" chess.

But there is one person who is an exception, and that is Xu Youyou, who has been sitting next to Li Yunsheng.

"It's not like that...... White is not that simple. ”

Her eyes lit up, her mind was completely immersed in every move on the board, and although she couldn't tell what was wrong with white, her intuition kept warning her that this white was brewing a storm that she didn't perceive.

The best proof of this is that black has a clear advantage, but the speed of the move is getting slower and slower, and it is clear that he is aware of something.

"Baizi must be brewing a move, a move that can completely reverse the situation!"

She was highly focused, trying to find that way from the chessboard.

"Smack——

And just when Xu Youyou was thinking hard about where Bai Zi's move was, a white seed appeared in her sight like a light, and then landed on the chessboard with a "click".

After seeing the location of the falling son, Xu Youyou's brain trembled suddenly as if it had been overpowered, and the whole person woke up from the chaos.

"This is it!"

She sat up in shock, her eyes full of horror.

In her eyes, the son that Li Yunsheng had just fallen was completely like a flying immortal outside the sky, which not only made Bai Zi turn the situation around, but also overshadowed Heizi's previous few steps.

"But...... Why is this here? Why is this move here? No, why would the black disc allow the white disc to land here?!"

Although the situation on the chessboard told her that Bai Zi's move was a unique move, the existence of this move itself was beyond her understanding of chess theory.

"Wait...... I see......"

At this moment, her gaze inadvertently swept over the position of Bai Zi's previous failed move, and the original confusion in her mind was suddenly solved.

"Let the words compete for ?!......"

"Master's hand seems to be a loser, but in fact, it is this white son behind more than a hundred hands, striving for a step ahead, it is precisely because of that defeat that there is now a hand like a flying fairy in the world!"

She froze there.

"The way of heaven is calculated...... That hypocritical and ethereal, but ubiquitous, omnipotent Heavenly Dao has been calculated by mere mortals!"

Once he began to look at the game with this kind of gaze, Xu Youyou's hand on his knee trembled for no reason.

She had fought against Tiandao on the chessboard, so she knew better than anyone how powerful it was, and every move she made and every thought she put on the chessboard was clearly perceived and deduced by her, and it felt like she couldn't escape the chase of the sun overhead no matter how much she ran, even if she could drop a few pieces, she still couldn't escape this feeling.

But it was such a powerful existence, and it was actually calculated by mortals in front of her, which made her feel like she was in a dream, which was very unreal.

Not long after Xu Youyou discovered Li Yunsheng's "abandonment of the son to be the first", more and more people, including the abbot Chang Le, began to notice the change in the situation on the chessboard.

But unlike Xu Youyou, except for a few people, most people feel the change in the situation on the chessboard because of their lack of chess strength, but they don't know why this change started, and they don't realize what kind of situation this change will lead to.

And as there are more and more chess pieces on the chessboard, the situation on the chessboard has also begun to become extremely complicated, and in the eyes of ordinary people, it is like a book from heaven.

Even some chess players with good chess skills gradually feel that their strength is not enough when they follow the review, because even if they are suffering from the rapid consumption of spirits, they still cannot fully deduce the subsequent changes of each piece on the board.

But that doesn't stop them from getting excited at the moment.

The reason for the excitement is that as a chess master, I can see this game of chess in the past and the present.

The second is Li Yunsheng's chess path, which has given them great encouragement to these human chess players - at least on the square inch chessboard, people can compete with the sky!

"Pop ......"

Just when everyone was looking forward to what kind of situation this person would lead this game of chess to, two black spots landed in the lower right corner of the chessboard at random with a crisp sound.

After shaking a few times, the pieces finally settled.

And everyone's pupils also dilated little by little as the chess pieces fell, and finally someone exclaimed with horror on their faces as if they had seen a ghost:

"Pitcher...... Throw in the towel?!!!!"

Because of the rules of Go, only one piece can be dropped at a time, and placing two chess pieces in the lower right corner of the board at random means that you take the initiative to admit defeat, which is a conventional rule.

"...... Tiandao admit defeat in the middle game?"

Seeing this scene, Xu Youyou's hair stood up all over his body, and he stood up with his mouth half open.

Although Li Yunsheng's hand of "letting the son compete for the first" made her feel unprecedented encouragement, just like other chess players thought in their hearts, they did not think that the black chess of the Heavenly Dao would lose in the end, and there would definitely be a clever move, and then the situation would be reversed.

In astonishment, her eyes fell on Bai Qi's "losing move" again.

"So there is no such thing as a losing move, from the very beginning, from the first chess piece, the master has already considered this step! From the very beginning, the master's white chess was thinking about taking the life of the black chess!"

In other words, from the moment the intention of the losing move was not detected, Tiandao had actually lost, and so many moves after this were just a remnant of the white layout. ”

The deeper Xu Youyou thought, the deeper the shock in his heart became.

"Why does black make a move?"

"Obviously, there are still a lot of empty spaces on the chessboard to fight for!"

"Is it a mistake?"

After the shock, the discussion resounded all over the ten states.

However, the crowd of this discussion does not include those chess players who gradually understand this game of chess, because the throws of the Heavenly Dao made them start to look at the whole game from the standpoint of white chess, and when they look at it this way, everything will be clear.

"White chess with a hand of 'defeat' abandon the first to take the lead, for the black tiger to dig out the heart of the hand to seize the opportunity, from the beginning to the end of the white has not been in the bottom, from the beginning to the end of the whole game of chess calculations, step by step to lay traps, step by step waiting for the heavenly way to take the bait, step by step to harvest the heavenly way of black chess......"

"Terrible power of deduction!"

"Terrible Mental Will!"

In the Dragon Palace, an elderly Dragon Clan elder beside Dragon Emperor Ao Xie looked up at the chess game in the virtual image above his head, and muttered with some excitement in his mouth.

The more people who understand chess, the more they can understand the horror of Li Yunsheng's hand.

The endgame has already been considered when the chess pieces have only landed a few dozen moves, and it goes without saying what kind of powerful deduction power is needed.

And what is even more terrifying is the heart and will of the person who has fallen into the child, knowing that it is the way of heaven sitting opposite, and can still be so fearless in the layout of the falling child, the strength of his will, the calmness of his heart, which is absolutely impossible for people to do.

To put it more vulgarly, only people who don't have the endgame of the Heavenly Dao in their eyes at all dare to play against the Heavenly Dao like this.

For a while, the chess players who saw this game of chess, after their hearts were shocked and calmed down, began to applaud Li Yunsheng's courage to compete with the sky!

"It seems that I didn't lose unjustly in that game of chess back then, after all, even Tiandao lost in his hands. ”

The corners of Ao Jie's mouth curled.

"My sister also played chess with Mr. Yunsheng?"

Yu Yan said in surprise on the side.

"The first game of chess after he stepped into the Immortal Mansion was played with me. ”

Ao Xie worried, clasped his hands to his chest, and looked proud.

"Sister, sister, tell us about it. ”

Yu Yan and Xiaobai were both excited all of a sudden.

"At that time, he broke into a cave where I was hiding, and while fighting the puppets I controlled, he began to blindly fight the endgame in front of me in order to disturb my mind. ”

......

"Dare to fight with the sky, don't pray to the immortals ......"

On Ranke Mountain, such a sentence suddenly appeared in Dongfang Li's mind, and the thin boy who said it in a dim hut.

This is what Li Yunsheng said to her mother, who was the former demon queen, in the small cabin under Broken Dragon Peak.

The demon queen has always remembered this sentence and the young man who said it in the cabin, and even left this memory in the Tuoying Stone, and Dongfang Li found this memory when sorting out the relics of the demon queen.

At first, she only thought that this was a teenager's spirit, and secretly laughed in her heart for this, but she didn't expect that Li Yunsheng, who is now calm-hearted, was also young and frivolous.

"He didn't break his word, he did. ”

Dongfang Li looked at the young man sitting in front of the chessboard with an indifferent and calm expression, and the corners of his mouth suddenly slowly curled.

"Mother, you are not wrong, your sacrifice is worth it. ”

She then said in her heart.

"Now that you've thrown in the towel, answer my question. ”

At this moment, Li Yunsheng, who had not spoken, suddenly looked at the empty position on the opposite side of the chessboard and spoke.

Mu Ningshuang and the others on the side were all nervous when they heard this, and their heartbeats accelerated with a "bang". They all knew very well that the outcome of this game of chess was only the surface, and the secret hidden behind the Heavenly Dao endgame was crucial to the ten states.

"What is life and death?"

Finally, Li Yunsheng spoke again.
