Chapter 502 Black Heart Spring and Autumn Sailing
Chapter 502 Black Heart Spring and Autumn Sailing
As the saying goes, "A true gentleman watches chess without saying a word, and a true man makes no regrets after making a move."
Two middle-aged monks were playing Tianyuan chess. When the game entered a fierce stage and the white chess piece was about to win,
However, because of a few words from the female monk, the middle-aged monk in black robe holding the black chess piece was able to turn danger into safety and win a great victory.
The key point is that they have bets when playing chess. It is said that the bet for each game is 100,000 medium-grade spirit stones.
The middle-aged monk who lost the game, holding the white chess pieces and wearing a white robe, was naturally unhappy and directly pushed the responsibility onto the young female monk.
He also shouted that he would not give any spirit stones, and that if the other party wanted spirit stones, they should ask the female monk for them, because she was the one who disturbed him from playing chess by talking too much.
Or you can play another game, and if the opponent can win again, you can give him the spirit stone.
This made the middle-aged monk in black robes unhappy.
So both of them began to blame the talkative young nun, which led to an argument between the two sides.
One hundred thousand middle-grade spirit stones is a huge fortune for any cultivator.
Obviously, the brother and sister could not come up with so many spirit stones, so the female monk's brother kept apologizing to the two people playing chess, hoping to get their forgiveness.
The noise here immediately attracted many monks to come and watch the excitement. After learning what had happened, everyone was not afraid of getting nosy and started commenting on the matter.
Some said that the little girl was self-righteous, while others said that the two middle-aged monks were relentless and went too far.
Of course, there were also kind-hearted monks who helped persuade the two middle-aged monks to show mercy while possible.
The little girl knew she was in the wrong, and she couldn't tell the other party's ability, so she could only hide behind her brother in grievance.
Perhaps it was because the persuasion of the kind-hearted monks around him had worked.
The white-robed monk who lost the game made a request, which was to set up a chess piece with a residual chess piece.
Didn't the little girl know how to play chess? As long as she solved the game, she would be released. Otherwise, her eyes would be dug out and her tongue would be cut off as a punishment.
Of course, if other monks want to help the little girl, they can also solve the chess game for her.
If you fail, it doesn't matter. You only need to pay 10,000 medium-grade spirit stones.
Of course, if you successfully crack the chess game, you can not only help the little girl out, but also get a reward of 100,000 medium-grade spirit stones.
After saying that, he took out a storage bag, which contained 100,000 medium-grade spirit stones. Everyone could check it at will.
Moreover, the words spoken by the middle-aged monk were very inciting, making those monks who disliked him but wanted to help the little girl out of trouble and earn spirit stones eager to try and asked him to quickly put out the remaining chess pieces.
Lu Chen listened to one sentence after another, and he immediately understood that the middle-aged monk in white was setting a trap for everyone.
It is possible that those two siblings were also their agents.
Sure enough, after the middle-aged monk set up the chessboard, he immediately attracted many Tianyuan chess enthusiasts to watch.
When they saw the chessboard clearly, there was a burst of snorting, because in their opinion, this endgame was too simple.
At that moment, a young cultivator vowed to pay 10,000 medium-grade spirit stones and threatened to defeat the other party completely.
But the result was that, in that seemingly simple chess game, the young monk was stuck in a deadlock before he could make a few moves and was quickly defeated.
The young cultivator who lost the spirit stones felt that he was careless. If he had changed his strategy, he would have definitely won.
This is the mentality of a gambler. However, after several rounds, the young monk had lost all his wealth.
I could only stand by with disappointment and regret, thinking about how to break the situation.
Next, several more monks tried to crack the chess game, but they all lost everything.
In just a short period of time, the middle-aged cultivator in white earned more than 200,000 mid-grade spirit stones, and it was a business with no capital investment.
"Hehehe... How about it? Is there anyone willing to challenge the chess game I set up?"
Seeing that no one came to challenge him again, the man in white took the initiative to drink with a smile.
But we are not stupid. The fact that so many people failed to solve the game shows that there are serious problems with this chess endgame and it is not as simple as it seems on the surface.
Since Lu Chen didn't know how to play Tianyuan chess, he could only stand aside and become a spectator.
Things turned out just as Lu Chen had guessed. After the middle-aged cultivator in white had obtained a lot of spirit stones, he said frankly that he was happy to have won spirit stones today, and he did not make things difficult for the two siblings anymore.
Seeing that there was nothing exciting to watch, everyone dispersed, and Lu Chen returned to his corner of the cabin.
Five or six hours later.
At this time, the old man, who was about fifty years old, with wrinkles on his forehead and silver hair on his temples, came to the middle of the cabin with more than twenty monks following him.
The old man looked around with a smile and nodded slightly to one of his men.
Then the sturdy subordinate used his true energy and said loudly:
"Get the fuck up, stop playing dead, it's time to buy tickets."
His shout immediately caused a commotion among the monks.
"What? Buy tickets? Did you make a mistake? Haven't we already bought our tickets?"
Many monks were surprised and asked questions after hearing this. As a result, the flight cabin was in an uproar and became noisy.
"Hmph! I don't think this is buying tickets, it's clearly robbery." Similar voices of agreement continued to ring out.
Lu Chen looked around and glanced at the old man on the platform. He was also surprised. He didn't expect that the Spring and Autumn Navigation Chamber of Commerce would actually raise the price midway.
The words "black car" immediately came to my mind.
Sure enough, the old man saw that everyone was agitated and refused to cooperate. In order to control the situation, he once again enveloped everyone with his powerful aura.
The scene immediately became quiet, and everyone looked at the old man in horror. At this time, people discovered a problem. There were two or three hundred passengers present.
All of them have cultivation levels ranging from the Jindan stage to the Yuanying stage. It is obvious that all of this was designed by the Spring and Autumn Navigation Chamber of Commerce.
"Please... may I ask... how many spirit stones do I need to pay if I want to buy another ticket? Can I get off the shuttle early? I just lost all my spirit stones."
A cultivator in the crowd mustered up the courage to ask, and this person was none other than the young cultivator who had lost all his spirit stones in a chess bet.
The old man smiled kindly upon hearing this and said:
"Of course! Since you have lost all your spirit stones, I can only send you down first."
"Thank you for your understanding, thank you for your kindness, I am grateful...untold..."
Upon hearing this, the young monk expressed his gratitude with joy.
But before he finished speaking, his face suddenly changed, revealing an expression of fear and pain.
Then with a "bang", his body exploded directly, blood and flesh flew everywhere, and he died tragically on the spot.
This scene immediately frightened everyone, and they all stepped back subconsciously...
