"It's here. ”

I don't know how many steps I climbed, and the little monk Chang Xiao finally stopped.

The crowd looked up.

A stone platform shrouded by a vigorous ancient pine appeared in everyone's sight.

From the bottom, the stone platform looks like a pair of hands stretched out from the cliff wall, holding the vigorous ancient pine tree high.

Obviously, this should be where the first Heavenly Dao endgame lies.

"Ding ......"

The sound of the metal trembling of the bronze bowl sounded from the stone platform, and the chess players who had just come up to this place couldn't help but shudder.

This voice is not only like a welcome to them, but also like a warning to them, and more like a report to an invisible person.

As if to say: they are coming.

Everyone immediately followed the little monk, stepped on the suspended stairs one by one, and went up to the stone platform.

Unlike when viewed below, the stone platform was very large, and the ancient pine tree was so large that the branches were so strong that they almost completely covered the sky above everyone, and the sunlight could only fall through the gaps in the branches.

On the stone platform, a monk sits on the cliff floor, holding a string of prayer beads in his hand, his eyes closed, and chanting scriptures in a low voice.

Obviously, he was the one who had just knocked on the bronze bowl.

The little monk seemed unwilling to interrupt the monk's chanting, so he just stood aside with his hands folded and did not say a word.

Seeing this, all the chess masters also stood quietly to the side without saying a word, but they just rolled their eyes one by one and began to look at the monk carefully.

The monk's eyelids were sunken, his cheeks were sunken, and his whole person was so thin that it was like a skin wrapped around a skeleton, making the ornate robe look extremely ill-fitting.

Under him sat a washed white futon, and in front of him there was a small desk, on the left side of the desk was a scroll of scriptures, on the right side was a vajra, and in the middle was a copper bowl, and in the copper bowl was burning thirteen incense sticks.

And further on, thirteen chessboards are placed in turn.

Maybe it's been a long time, and the square stone chessboard is already crawling with moss and vines, and the chessboard is full of pine needles, and it is difficult to find that it is actually a chessboard without looking carefully.

As the line of sight goes up with the mountain, there are stone steps embedded in the cliff wall, and there is no doubt that above this stone staircase, it will be

"Ding ......"

Another crisp brass bowl struck sound.

This sound directly drew everyone's attention back and fell back on the thin monk.

"Amitabha Buddha ......"

The wizened monk clasped his palms together and opened his empty eyelids.

Although the monk's eyes were empty, the chess players standing in front of him had a kind of uneasiness in their hearts that they were secretly being seen through, and they began to frown one by one.

However, Xu Youyou was extremely calm, and she also clasped her palms together decently, and smiled at the monk.

The thin monk seemed to have "seen" this smile, and also casually bowed his head slightly at Xu Youyou.

"Senior Brother Changshou, these are the chess masters who came to watch the chess this time. ”

At this time, the little monk Changle spoke.

"There's Senior Brother Lao, you. ”

Chang Shou nodded, his voice was extremely old and hoarse, and the speed of his speech was more like stirring paste.

"Please sit down, the chessboard is right in front of you, feel free to sit down. ”

Monk Changshou raised his hand and made a gesture of please.

"Master Xie. ”

"Thank you, monk. ”

......

Everyone thanked each other and sat down on a chessboard.

Xu Youyou and Dongfang Yu chose an adjacent chessboard, and when they sat down, the two looked at each other and smiled, and then they both looked at the chessboard in front of them seriously.

"You can watch the chess first, and you don't need to rush to write the word. ”

At this time, the Changshou monk spoke again, and as he spoke, he reached forward and gently volleyed into the air.

With just this flick, the fallen leaves and weeds on everyone's chessboard were swept away.

However, to everyone's surprise, there were no chess pieces on the board.

"Why aren't there any chess pieces?"

Hongguang Zan Hongwen couldn't help but ask.

"Smack!"

It's just that just as he finished speaking, a sunspot seemed to be born out of thin air and landed on the star in the upper right corner of his chessboard.

Not only him, but also other people's chessboards, there is also an extra sunspot.

"This game of chess is complicated, so I'll review it for you first. ”

"Smack!"

The voice of the monk Changshou sounded again, and at the same time as his voice sounded, a white seed landed on the small star in the lower right corner of the chessboard.

"In that case, why don't we go straight to the chessboard. ”

This is Cangyun Sect Yan Yu suddenly spoke.

In fact, her words expressed the thoughts of many chess players present.

In their opinion, instead of playing on the endgame of their predecessors, it is better to open another game of chess to have a better chance of winning.

"If, after watching this endgame, you still have this kind of thought, the poor monk can reopen the chess game with you. ”

Monk Changshou replied lightly, as if he had expected these people to ask half of the question.

And in his colleague who spoke, another black gas "clicked" and landed on the small eye in the lower left corner of the chessboard.

Everyone, you look at me, I look at you, and in the end I chose to watch this endgame.

"In this game, the Heavenly Dao is black, and the monks of the Ten States are white. ”

"Smack. ”

The longevity monk continued to fall while talking.

In the silence, black and white chess pieces with ancient meaning appeared on the chessboard, and quietly landed in the criss-crossing chess path.

I don't know if it's a delusion.

Xu Youyou only felt that every chess piece on this chessboard, even if it was a chess piece of the same color, looked similar at first glance, but it was very different when you looked closely, and even the scratches on the chess pieces had a subtle meaning, just like the lines of a human palm.

Soon, however, her attention was drawn to the increasingly complex chess game.

In this game, the first few moves are all set, and there is nothing special about it.

This made everyone, including Xu Youyou, couldn't help but have questions about the endgame of the Heavenly Dao.

But from the moment White's sixteenth hand was in the lower right corner against a pinnacle of black's disc, and then the next tiger was followed, the game suddenly became dangerous.

Although the monks were silent on the surface, they couldn't help but applaud the hand of the monks in the world in their hearts.

But immediately after that, the black qi nineteen hands directly poured a scoop of cold water on everyone's heads.

From this point on, every next hand turned into a brutal battle between black and white chess pieces.

As the chess game deepened, everyone only felt like they were in a killing battlefield.

And this battlefield of killing, although extremely violent and ferocious, but also makes people intoxicated in horror, as if admiring a perfect incomparable, but it is a picture painted with blood, in which even killing becomes a form of existence of beauty.

In this game, white is clearly at a disadvantage, but every time the mountain is exhausted, an astonishing move is revealed.

Obviously, there are new monks joining the game.

And it was one human monk after another who went forward and turned the tide at the moment of crisis, so that this game of chess began to truly become an existence beyond the human world.

And as the monk Changle fell on the last black and forced the white child into a desperate situation again, the chess masters in front of the chessboard were shocked by the game in front of them and were speechless for a long time.

At this moment, they finally understood the reason why the countless ancestors did not open another game, but chose to continue to complete this game of chess.

Because in addition to gathering the power of ancient and modern chess masters, there is no second possibility to complete this perfect chess game with the Heavenly Dao.

After watching this game of chess, the word "eternal" appeared in the minds of many chess players.

For monks, immortality is eternity.

For the chess player, eternity is an irreplaceable hand on the chessboard.

In the endless river of time, on the chessboard crisscrossing the heavens and stars, the word eternal is almost equivalent to a lie.

But after watching this game of chess.

They found that every piece that landed on the board would represent eternity.

They can even believe that even if time passes and the galaxy collapses, this game of chess will remain in this world forever.

Just ask such a perfect game of chess, which chess player in this world can refuse?

At this moment, including Yan Yu of the Cangyun Sect, the idea of opening another game had been completely extinguished in his heart.

They even begin to feel ashamed and ashamed of having that thought before.
