Chu Feng was surprised and happy. He muttered," She's here too. I didn't expect to see her again so soon. I wonder what her name is…"
Mu Rong also saw Di Wei. He heard Chu Feng talking to himself and asked curiously,""You don't know who she is?"
Chu Feng shook his head." I met her once before, but she left without saying a word."”
"Didn't your master…no, the old Taoist priest tell you about some outstanding people in Jianghu recently?”
"No, but she often mentions those strange figures from a long time ago, such as Pangu, Fuxi, Nuwa, Houyi, Kuafu, Huangdi, Shennong, and so on. Brother Murong, do you know her name?”
Murong was about to answer when the surroundings suddenly fell silent. It turned out that Mr. Gui Zi had appeared.
Mr. Gui Zi was wearing a crane cloak and a long robe, a ceremonial crown on his head, and a pair of green cloud shoes. He had white hair and a youthful face, and his long beard floated in front of his chest. He looked somewhat like an immortal. Two children followed behind him, one holding a chessboard and the other holding a chess piece. The chessboard had an antique feel to it. The black and white pieces were transparent, and one could tell at a glance that it was a treasure.
Mr. Gui Zi slowly walked in front of everyone and cupped his hands slightly." Dear friends, I'm honored to have you come from afar to watch my chess game…"
"Senior Gui Zi, please hurry up and set up the game. We can't hold it in any longer.”Some impatient people in the crowd couldn't help but say.
Mr. Guizi smiled and said,"Everyone, please calm down." This old man has set up a trap here five times, but it has never been broken in decades. Today is the sixth time I've set up a trap. I've heard that there have been many talents in Jianghu in recent years. I hope I can fulfill my wish this time.”
Someone shouted," Senior Gui Zi, last time you set up a life-and-death chain robbery chess game. None of us could break it. In the end, you had to do it yourself." I wonder what kind of chess game Senior is going to set up this time?”
Mr. Gui Zi stroked his beard and smiled.""This old man is setting up an 'endgame' this time, and a big one at that.”
Everyone was curious, only Chinese chess had an endgame, but who had ever heard of Go having an endgame?
Someone joked,"Senior, your chessboard is only two feet long. How can you set up a big game?"”He deliberately dragged out the word "big" to make everyone laugh.
Mr. Gui Zi stroked his beard and said unhurriedly,"Everyone will naturally understand in a moment. Please follow this old man.”
Thus, everyone followed Mr. Gui Zi around the mountain valley. In front of them stood a huge stone wall that looked like it had been cut by a knife. The stone wall was very flat, and on the flat ground below the stone wall were pieces of chess pieces carved from large stones. There were black and white, and each chess piece was two feet long. There were more than three hundred of them.
Chu Feng looked at the chessboard held by the child beside Mr. Gui Zi, then looked at the stone chess pieces on the ground. He couldn't help but smile and say,""Senior, the chess pieces on the ground are indeed big, but your chessboard is too small.”
Mr. Gui Zi smiled and walked in front of Chu Feng.""Little brother, can I borrow your sword?”
Chu Feng was stunned." Senior Gui Zi, my sword is a little old and blunt. It's not very sharp!"”
Everyone couldn't help but be amused. Who in Jianghu would say that their sword was old and dull? This kid was really a little silly.
Mr. Gui Zi smiled and said,"It's fine, as long as you're willing to lend me your sword."”
"Alright then!"
Chu Feng pulled out his sword, turned the blade around, and handed it to Mr. Gui Zi.
Some people muttered," This kid is really inexperienced and too rash. If Mr. Ghost wants to harm him, he'll just send his sword away. Wouldn't that be a waste of his life?"”
Mr. Gui Zi took the sword and looked at it. This sword looked very old indeed. The tip of the sword was hidden, making it seem a little thick and blunt.
"The sword is a bit blunt, Senior, please don't laugh at me!"”
Mr. Gui Zi smiled, turned around and slowly walked to the bottom of the stone wall. His feet didn't seem to touch the ground, but his body suddenly rose into the air and actually reached the top of the stone wall. The long sword stabbed into the stone wall with a " cha " sound. His body fell, and he drew a deep and wide vertical line on the stone wall with the long sword. Just as he was about to land on the ground, he turned his body upside down and tapped the tip of his sword lightly on the ground. His entire body bounced back to the top of the stone wall. He stabbed his sword into the stone wall, and his body fell again, drawing a second vertical line. Then, the tip of his sword tapped the ground and he bounced up again. Just like that, Mr. Gui Zi drew straight vertical lines on the stone wall. After drawing the vertical lines, he drew horizontal lines. In the blink of an eye, a huge chessboard was engraved on the stone wall.
From the beginning to the end, Mr. Gui Zi's feet never touched the ground. It was not until he drew the last line that Mr. Gui Zi landed back on the ground. He waved his right hand upward, and the sword in his hand shot into the sky, piercing into the clouds. Then, he rolled his sleeves left and right, and stone chess pieces weighing nearly a hundred catties were thrown at the stone wall like raindrops. A series of loud bangs could be heard. In just a few seconds, almost all the stone chess pieces on the ground were brushed against the stone wall by his sleeves, nailed to every point.
Everyone was stunned. It was simply unbelievable. These were more than 300 stone chess pieces weighing nearly 100 jin!
Chu Feng's eyes widened when he saw Mr. Ghost's series of actions. Mr. Gui Zi patted his sleeves calmly, turned around, and landed in front of Chu Feng. At this moment, the ancient sword that pierced through the clouds also fell down and returned to the scabbard on Chu Feng's back with a swoosh.
Mr. Gui Zi nodded at Chu Feng.""Little brother, thank you."
Chu Feng was still staring at him with his mouth agape, and actually forgot to return the greeting.
Mu Rong quickly pulled his sleeve, and Chu Feng came back to his senses. He said in astonishment,"
" Thank you so much…I'm done…That's amazing…"
Everyone almost laughed out loud.
Mr. Gui Zi smiled and turned around to leave.
"Wait!" "Senior, why is my sword gone?" Chu Feng hurriedly called out.”
Everyone could not help but laugh out loud.
Chu Feng was baffled and couldn't help but look at Murong. Murong held back his laughter and glanced behind him.
Chu Feng hurriedly stretched out his hand and touched his back, saying in surprise,""When did my sword return to its sheath?”
Everyone laughed again. This kid was really stupid.
Someone said," It turns out that Senior Gui Zi is not only skilled in chess, but also in martial arts. He's really well-hidden!"”
Mr. Guizi smiled." I've heard that heroes and talents have gathered in Jianghu in recent years, so I set up this chess game on a whim so that everyone can see it clearly. How do you think you can play chess? Please give me your best advice.”
It seemed that Mr. Guizi was not only testing everyone's chess skills, but also their martial arts. Without dense inner strength, they could not throw the stone chess pieces onto the stone wall.
Now that the chess game had been set up, they were just waiting for everyone to break the game. Could anyone break the game this time?
