The Heavens: Rebirth of Xu Zhu, Recognizing His Father at the Beginning

Chapter 79 Death Will

Duan Yu looked ashamed and hurriedly picked up the ten pieces he had placed on the chessboard and stepped aside.

His eyes flickered as he looked at the chess game, as if he was hesitant to speak.

Fan Bailing, one of the eight friends of Hangu, was originally a chess fan. He looked at the chess game from a distance and was lost in thought.

The two played chess for a while, and he realized that it was not his master playing against the young master, but his master had arranged a Zhenlong chess game, and the young master tried to crack it, but could not.

He couldn't see clearly as he was kneeling on the ground, so he couldn't help but raise his knees and crane his neck to see what the problem was.

Seeing this, Su Xinghe turned his gaze in front of his former disciple.

"Everyone of you, please get up! Bai Ling, this round of Zhenlong is of great significance. Come and take a closer look. If you can really crack it, it will be a great thing."

When the eight friends of Hangu heard this, their faces were overjoyed and they stood up one after another.

Fan Bailing was overjoyed, and after saying yes, he stood up, walked to the chessboard, and looked at it intently.

Gong Yeqian on the side was still explaining to his brothers what "Zhenlong" was, but Ye Wuxin looked at the chessboard from a distance, inferring the location of the key piece.

"My junior brother betrayed our sect back then, causing my late master to die in grief and beating me to the point where I was unable to fight back."

He has been studying Go for decades and is actually a master of the game. But today, when he mastered this game, he felt dizzy and exhausted his mental energy.

Su Xinghe looked solemn and said coldly.

Su Xinghe stroked his beard and said with a smile.

‘Nineteen lanes across the board, there are only 361 empty spaces in total. There are more than 200 pieces on the board now, and there are very few places where one stone can affect the life and death of dozens of stones. I don’t believe you can’t find it.’

"My master left this wish back then, allowing me to survive and live a hard life for thirty years."

"But when I think about Zhenlong's unresolved situation, I can only hold on to a dying life, endure the humiliation and live an ignoble existence, and survive until now."

"The deaf-mute old man is neither deaf nor mute today. You must know why."

Xuan Nan and Xuan Tong put their hands together and bowed to Su Xinghe.

He forced himself to brace himself, and when he wanted to make further calculations, he suddenly felt dizzy, and blood surged in his chest.

At the same time, Fan Bailing concentrated on his calculations and felt dizzy for a while, so he could only force his mental calculations.

"This Mr. Duan may not be handsome, let alone dashing. What's more, being handsome and dashing has nothing to do with playing chess. It doesn't make sense! It doesn't make sense!"

Without paying attention to Ding Chunqiu, Su Xinghe casually picked up the big stone beside him and placed it in front of the two masters Xuannan and Xantong.

Su Xinghe stared at him for a moment, smiled slightly, and didn't pay attention to his arrogance.

When talking about this, Su Xinghe's eyes slowly passed over the people present, and finally stopped on Xuan Nan and Xuan Tong.

"I have worked hard and studied for the next thirty years, but I have never been able to understand the mystery."

"Wonderful, wonderful! You broke your oath and sought death in front of me. You can't blame me for that."

The two old monks saw that this big stone weighed at least two hundred kilograms. Su Xinghe, a withered and short old man, might not weigh eighty kilograms.

"Thank you."

Su Xinghe glanced sideways at Ding Chunqiu, with anger hidden in his eyes.

Fan Bailing was hesitant, but just as he was making another calculation, his vision suddenly turned black, a sweet smell came out of his throat, and he spurted out a large mouthful of blood.

"Two masters, please sit down."

"Life or death is a matter of destiny. Brother, I. I would rather die than untie it."

Fan Bailing stared at the chess game, his body swaying, and soon he spat out a mouthful of blood, but still got nothing.

"Hahahaha! Mr. Su's personality and appearance are not necessarily so handsome, aren't they?"

Su Xinghe nodded slowly and stroked his long beard.

Among the crowd, Bao BuTong shouted loudly, and his aggressive nature showed up again.

"What's more, there is Ding Chunqiu, an evil thief who deceives his master and destroys his ancestors, hiding aside and performing evil spells to steal people's hearts. Do you want to think about it?"

"For so many years, I kept silent. Not only did I become a deaf-mute old man, but I also forced my new disciples to become deaf-mute."

After trying to calm down and think again, I found that my mind was too consumed and I couldn't even break free from the corners of this precious body.

Seeing Fan Bailing vomiting blood, Su Xinghe said coldly.

Having said this, Su Xinghe turned his eyes and pointed at Ding Chunqiu.

Ding Chunqiu sneered a few times.

Fan Bailing looked miserable, nodded deeply, and said stubbornly.

"Although I can't figure it out through my research, there are so many talented people in the world that I may not be able to solve this problem."

Su Xinghe looked around in all directions with an arrogant expression, completely different from his previous style, and he obviously wanted to die.

"This Zhenlong chess game was created by my ancestor. My master spent three years of hard work before setting it up. I sincerely hope that the knowledgeable people in the world of chess can crack it."

"Alas! Thirty years have passed and I have accomplished nothing. No one can crack this Zhenlong game. This Young Master Duan is certainly handsome."

"No, no!"

"Huh huh, you risked your life in vain, why bother? The trap set up by the old thief was originally used to torture people. Fan Bailing, you are just throwing yourself into a trap."

"It has a lot to do with it, it has a lot to do with it. This friend doesn't understand it, and I don't want to say more."

"The two masters are proficient in Zen principles and know that the essence of Zen is the word 'sudden enlightenment'."

"This game of Zhenlong is extremely difficult. Although your chess skills are not weak, you are limited by your talent, so you probably won't be able to solve it."

"Okay, think about it slowly."

Although the words were cold, Su Xinghe was actually persuading him to retreat and save his life.

"If my master's wish had not been fulfilled, I would have died a long time ago and returned to the West with the master to repay the master for his great kindness."

Bao BuTong said with a smile, as if a dead pig is not afraid of boiling water.

Ding Chunqiu snorted coldly, shaking the feather fan lightly in his hand with a very disdainful expression.

"He is an old thief, I will call him an old thief!"

It would not be difficult for the two of them to lift this huge stone when their martial arts were transformed by Ding Chunqiu, but in terms of ease and comfort, it was a bit worse than the smart Mr. Bian in front of them.

"If someone can crack it and fulfill my master's wish, even though he is no longer alive, he will be very relieved to know that he knows."

"Years of hard work may not be as good as a wise person's instant understanding. The same is true for chess. A talented eight or nine-year-old kid can often beat a first-rate master if he picks it up casually."

To be able to lift this huge boulder effortlessly with so much weight is truly remarkable.

"What do you call Master?"

"Mr. Su will definitely say that I am more ugly and weird than you, Mr. Bao."

Bao BuTong said both good and bad things. This is not a bully. Who is a bully?

Su Xinghe stopped paying attention to him, looked at Duan Yu and continued.

"The more than ten moves Mr. Duan made were already extremely sophisticated. I originally had great expectations, but I didn't know that in the end, I was still one move short, and I lost in the final count."
