Chapter 493: The First Question
Outside the city, a pavilion in the desert.
The scorching sun baked the entire desert with a scorched smell, and even the whimper of the wind and sand seemed weak at the moment.
However, the pavilion is still cool and breezy, and there is no trace of heat.
At this time, Li Yunsheng looked at the wind and sand outside the pavilion expressionlessly, while the city lord of the night city sitting in front of him and Zhou Liang stared at the chessboard in front of him together.
The faces of the two of them are not very good-looking at the moment, especially Zhou Liang's face is as white as paper, as if he is seriously ill.
Looking at the chessboard again, the black and white chess pieces have already fallen hundreds of hands, although it is long impossible to see which end of the battle started, but the tragic battle situation on the board is obvious.
Especially the sunspot held by Zhou Liang was bitten by Li Yunsheng's white son, like a dying black cat, forced to tremble in the corner.
"Do you want to go down?"
Li Yunsheng suddenly retracted his gaze and looked at Zhou Liangdao, who was pinching a sunspot on the opposite side and had not fallen for a long time.
"Down, down, ......"
Zhou Liang's body trembled, and he was about to fall, but he was forced to stop his falling hand by a strong pressure in front of him, and when he raised his eyes, he found that Li Yunsheng was looking at him coldly.
"You lose, go down again, it's just a waste of time. ”
Li Yunsheng said expressionlessly, at this time, there was no politeness on his face, and after picking up the chess pieces, Li Yunsheng seemed to be a different person.
"But I'm ...... But I can still go down, and there is still a way to live......"
"Forget it, Old Zhou. ”
Zhou Liang seemed to want to argue a few words, but was interrupted by the night city lord on the side.
He took the chess pieces in Zhou Liang's hand, pressed down his hand that was frozen in mid-air, and then patted him on the shoulder and said:
"It's you who lose. ”
Hearing this, Zhou Liang lowered his head with a dejected expression.
"I thought that this time I would at least last until you were decided. ”
After a while, Zhou Liang slowly raised his head as if he had breathed a sigh of relief, and looked at Li Yunsheng with a wry smile.
"I'm sorry, next time I have a chance, I'll play a good game with my seniors. ”
After putting away the white seeds on the chessboard, Li Yunsheng's eyes finally lost a few points, and then he looked at Zhou Liangdao with a gentle tone.
In order to end it early, in this game of chess just now, Li Yunsheng was full of murderous spirit, in fact, when he played forty or fifty moves, he had already forced Zhou Liang to decline, and Zhou Liang was just barely catching his breath in the next dozens of hands.
I don't know why, from going out in the morning to now, Li Yunsheng has an inexplicable sense of urgency.
"May I ask the first question?"
Li Yunsheng put the chess box where the chess pieces were put in the center of the chessboard, and then looked up at the city lord of the night city and asked.
"Yes. ”
One night, the city lord also pushed the box of white chess pieces to the center of the chessboard.
"Is my master still alive?"
Li Yunsheng asked.
Hearing this, the city lord of Yiyi City was stunned for a moment, and then smiled:
"Why don't you ask about Yu Xuzi's whereabouts first? After all, in a sense, he made your body look like this. ”
"There's no hurry. ”
Li Yunsheng shook his head and said.
"I'm really crazy about being young now, do you think you can beat me in the next two sets? Don't blame me for not reminding you, if you lose the next set, there will be no third set. ”
One night the main road of the city.
And Li Yunsheng didn't seem to have heard the words of the City Lord of One Night City at all, and still looked at him calmly, quietly waiting for the other party to answer.
"I don't distinguish between good and good, I don't get oil and salt, just like your master, I am as stubborn as a donkey......"
That night, the city lord first glanced at Li Yunsheng, and then looked at Li Yunsheng with a solemn expression and said:
"Although he is fortunate to have lived, he is still alive, at least until Yan Prison pries his mouth open. ”
Hearing this, Li Yunsheng grinned rarely, and then stretched out his hand to make a gesture to the chessboard and said:
"Second set. ”
......
Hongli City, Iron Castle.
This iron fort, also known as the Black Iron Tower, is the fortress of Hongli City out of the city, and it is also the most unique building in Hongli City.
Because the entire iron fortress, including the walls on both sides of the iron fortress, is made of black iron.
Only a land rich in iron ore such as Hongli City can have such a big deal.
In addition to the fact that the whole body is made of black iron, the whole shape of this iron fortress connected to the city wall is like an open embrace, and standing under the city tower always makes people feel an inexplicable sense of oppression and fear.
So on weekdays, if you don't go out of the city, you rarely seem to want to come here.
But today is different.
Despite the ferocity of the noon sun overhead, the crowd of people rushing towards the iron fort was still endless.
Because these people want to see what the legendary autumn water remnants look like.
Just now, the news that Hongli City was going to execute a group of Qiushui remnants spread all over the streets and alleys of Hongli City.
"This Qiushui remnant, didn't you say that Yan Prison and the Immortal League haven't caught it for ten years, why did I catch it as soon as I caught it?"
"Our Twilight City Lord is powerful. ”
"Don't slap that fart, the person who was executed this time is not the remnant of Qiushui who is wanted by Yan Prison and the Immortal Alliance. ”
"How do you know it's not?"
"If it's really the remnants of the autumn water, why can't it be the turn of Hongli City to execute, and the Immortal Alliance has already come to ask for someone. ”
"What you said seems to have some truth, but since it is not the remnants of Qiushui, how dare the city lord announce the whole city like this, isn't he afraid that the Immortal Alliance will send someone down to investigate?"
"What's there to be afraid of, there are so many displaced people from Qinglian Mansion in Hongli City, just find a few and say that it is the remnants of Qiushui, even the Immortal Alliance can't find fault with it. ”
"But what's the benefit of the city lord doing this?"
"It's just to ask for credit from the Immortal League, and the reward for the Immortal League's capture of the Qiushui Yu Party has always been rich. ”
Before the city guards could escort anyone out, the crowd in front of the city tower had already begun to talk about it in a noisy.
"I said, it won't be so coincidental, don't worry. ”
In an inconspicuous corner behind the crowd, Qingluo, who was tied with a turban, patted Beidou Dao, who was also tied with a turban and a hat, next to him.
In order not to let people see through their identities, the two also changed their clothes.
Qingluo wore a Confucian shirt from his grandfather's youth, and Beidou changed Qingluo's clothes when he was a child, plus his original appearance was delicate, and at first glance he looked no different from a little girl.
"I hope so. ”
Beidou nodded, rubbing his hands nervously, staring at the gate of the Iron Fort not far away.
It was the first time he had looked forward to seeing his father so much.
"The door is open, it's out!"
At this moment, the onlookers in the front row suddenly shouted, and then they saw several city guards escorting a group of ragged homeless people out.
