As soon as the white-bearded old man finished speaking, the profound practitioners at the side all shook their heads, no one wanted to follow the old man's way.
This old man's name is Bai Sheng, and he only played chess in this area for a few days, but he has already killed all the profound practitioners who are good at chess in the nearby Xing and Chen districts.
The chess player who was defeated just now is the one with the best chess skills among the crowd. Even he has lost ten games in a row against the old man, let alone the others.
Gambling is strictly prohibited in Sixiang City, but this white-bearded old man is a serious gambler. He also loves to play chess, so he had nothing to do, so he started this special chessboard game in a secluded place on the city wall.
Merit is the bet. In the beginning, the winning or losing of a game of chess was only ten merit points, which was within their tolerance for the permanent residents of Sixiang City present.
But the white-bearded old man thought it wasn't enough, so he invented a method called "two wins in three sets". The so-called three sets determine the winner. If you win the game, you can wipe out the previous win or loss, but if you continue to the third game, as long as you win the third game, you can get three times the merit points, and if you lose, you only need to pay two times. times the merit value.
This kind of gambling sounds very tempting at first glance, but the white-bearded old man is impeccable. His chess style is vicious and his methods are ruthless. It is winning three games in a row. In the case of winning three games in a row, the loser will have to pay five times the merit value.
There have been dozens of people who have fallen for the old man with white beard in a row, and they have been killed by him, and the merit points lost to the old man are countless.
This time even the player with the best chess skills lost, and the crowd didn't want to fight, shouting and wanting to disperse.
The white-bearded old man's addiction to chess hadn't gone away, and when he saw that everyone was about to turn around and leave, he was anxious, and shouted: "Hey, don't leave, at worst, old man, I will pay you back for my merits."
Just when the white-bearded old man was depressed, he suddenly saw a person sitting cross-legged in front of him, and said with a smile: "Old man, how about I play a game with you?"
The white-bearded old man blinked his old eyes and saw the young man in front of him clearly. He sized up Yue Jinghua a few times, and vaguely felt that she looked familiar, but she was old, and his memory was not very good. I remember where I saw her.
Although the old man is addicted to chess, he is also picky. He would never play bad chess with a novice. He knew that the opponent was a rookie from Yue Jinghua's attire, so he said with disgust: "Go, go, it won't last long. You look like a little boy with no hair on his lips and want to take advantage of the old man, you can see that he is a newcomer, maybe he doesn't even have the merit to play a game of chess with the old man?"
"Old man, I have meritorious deeds," said Yue Jinghua who was sitting down, and without further ado, she lit up the meritorious service ring on her bright finger, and there was indeed a "ten" on it.
The white-bearded old man muttered to himself, it's weird, didn't it mean that those kids from some other team didn't get into the ruins yet, so why did they have merit points
"So what if you have meritorious deeds, do you know what kind of chess it is? It's Shenpo chess, a yellow-mouthed kid like you, let alone playing it, just looking at it a few more times can make you lose your mind and play foolishly." For a few days, go and go, don't hinder the old man, I'll find someone to play chess with," the old man impatiently waved Yue Jinghua away as if chasing a fly that didn't know what to do.
Unexpectedly, just when the old man was getting impatient, the animal chess pieces on the chessboard made a crisp sound, and a beast chess piece jumped up and bumped into a chess piece in the old man's chess formation.
When the two chess pieces collided, what came out was not an ordinary crisp sound, but a wave of mental power.
It was the spiritual power stored in the chess by the old man with white beard and the spiritual power temporarily stored in the chess piece by Yue Jinghua. Just such a collision caused the old man with white beard to change his complexion slightly, and immediately, the innocence in his eyes Patience was replaced by a flash of excitement.
He jumped up excitedly as if he had discovered a peerless artifact made by a craftsman, and kept rubbing his hands, "Xiaowa, you... your spiritual power..."
Those profound practitioners who were about to disperse also felt the unusual fluctuation of mental power in Yue Jinghua's body.
Although these profound practitioners who gathered here to play chess also lived in the Four Elephant City, they were different from ordinary city residents. In addition to possessing profound strength, they also cultivated spiritual strength.
Spiritual power has always been ignored or even discriminated against in the Canglong Continent. The reason why these mysterious practitioners, including this white-bearded old man, gathered in Four Elephant City was to find fellows who were also proficient in spiritual power.
To their surprise, the boy in front of them, who was only sixteen or seventeen years old, was actually a master of spiritual power.
Yue Jinghua saw everyone's expressions as if they had found a treasure, and she knew it in her heart.
She thought for a while, and said casually: "I was lucky enough to get a broken book left by a summoner, which taught a method of cultivating spiritual power, called...Nine... Moon or something."
When the white-bearded old man heard it, his face flushed as if he had drunk old wine, "Nine revolutions of moon-making skills."
"Yes! That's the name," Yue Jinghua immediately echoed, unexpectedly, the old man also knew the magical skill of spiritual cultivation such as the nine-turn moon-making skill.
While the white-bearded old man was happy, there was a hint of doubt in his shrewd old eyes.
He had never seen Yue Jinghua in the Four Elephant City, and the other party was too young, which made it hard for him to believe that she really possessed the highest skill of the moon plane, the nine-turn moon-making skill.
But if it is said that what she said was a lie, how could she, a mere human race, know about the Nine-Revolution Moon-Building Kung Fu, a supreme skill that is only spread on the Moon plane.
The white-bearded old man was still in doubt, he hesitated for a long time, and then said: "Little baby, is everything you said true?"
"It's true, I can't be fake. Although I haven't learned all the moon-making skills of the ninth revolution, I have learned it after all. If you don't believe me, old man, you can play a game of chess with me." The rules are the same, two wins out of three sets, if I win, the old man will lose me one hundred merit points, if I lose, I will tell you the first level of the nine-turn moon-making kung fu, how about it, Old man, are you willing to play three games with me?"
Yue Jinghua's bet is extremely attractive.
But the white-bearded old man felt that behind the seemingly harmless smile of the young man, there was a hint of conspiracy faintly revealed.
The white-bearded old man hesitated for a moment, and the chess players on the side kept booing, making the old man agree.
In the end, the old man couldn't stand the excitement of the nine-turn moon-making skill after all, and nodded in agreement.
The two set up the chessboard and "played" chess.
