Chapter 245 The long river is the disk, time and space are the children, and the game begins
Su Mu came to the river bank and looked into the dark waters.
Dong——
The dull sound continued to ring in my ears, which seemed very clear.
Looking closely, he saw a piece of black driftwood on the water downstream, floating against the river in the direction of Su Mu.
After getting closer, he discovered a figure standing on the driftwood. He was holding a round gong in his left hand, and he was beating the gong and drum with his right hand, making a rhythmic dull sound.
Su Mu waved his hand and blew away the thick fog floating on the river at night. The wide driftwood also stayed less than twenty meters away from Su Mu. In the dim light, I could see the figure clearly.
The human figure is wearing a purple Taoist robe, with gray hair, and although his eyes are cloudy, there is a little bit of light, and his face is ordinary. From the looks of it, he is an ordinary old man.
The moment the two people looked at each other, Su Mu suddenly froze on the spot, his brows furrowed, and he felt familiar. Why did he seem to have seen this old man before, but for a moment he thought again? Can't get up.
"Who is coming?" Su Mu put his hands behind his back and asked the old man on the driftwood.
"It seems that your Excellency is a noble man who forgets things. We have met before." The old man put away the gong in his hand and took out a white whisk from his cuff, looking like a fairy.
Hearing this, Su Mu began to reminisce in his mind. He seemed to have a little memory, but he couldn't remember the details.
Mou——
A cow's braying sounded. At some point, Old Qing Niu came to the river bank and cried to the old road on the driftwood.
Su Mu could tell from this voice that Old Qingniu seemed to know this veteran.
At this time, Su Mu caught the key point and thought of something.
A few years ago, Su Mu got drunk once, and while he was drunk, he happened to meet a man crossing the river.
Moreover, it seemed that I had beaten the other party hard.
Lao Qingniu also started to follow him from that day, and the identity of the other party was immediately revealed. He was Lao Qingniu's former master.
After hearing the cry of the old green cow, the old Taoist smiled and said nothing, still looking at Su Mu calmly.
"I remembered that you were preparing to cross the river. I was drunk at that time and I didn't strike you lightly or harshly. Did I beat you up?"
Su Mu asked the old Taoist.
"It seems that you still remember me." The old Taoist replied.
“I was drunk at the time, and I’m really a little sorry. I’m not like this on weekdays. I treat all people crossing the river equally. As long as there is no trouble, I will only charge the river crossing fee, and I will also let them go. You go over."
"But you have to cross the river at night, so you have to pay extra during this time."
Su Mu said slowly to the old Taoist.
Hearing this, the old Taoist smiled and shook his head and said, "It's okay. I didn't blame you. On the contrary, you helped me unintentionally."
"Come here today. I don’t plan to cross the river either.”
After saying this, Su Mu was stunned.
Help you?
What?
Are you prone to masochism?
"Then what are you doing here at night?" Su Mu looked puzzled.
You can’t cross the river. What are you going to do if you beat a gong back and forth at night?
Are you here to fight?
"I want to play a game of chess with Your Excellency." The old Taoist voice echoed, and it was very obvious on the quiet river.
Hearing this, Su Mu also waved his hand and said: "Go back, I don't have time."
Are you crazy?
Come to play chess with me late at night?
“Wait a minute.” Seeing Su Mu about to leave, Lao Tao hurriedly said: “If you can beat me, I will give you a gift.”
Waiting for Su Mu to speak, the old Taoist continued: "I know that you are not short of any treasures."
"But this treasure I gave you is definitely what you need."< br>
Hearing these words, Su Mu also became interested and said: "Before dawn, regardless of whether there is a winner or not, I will play with you for one night at most. I don't have that much time to play with you. ”
Su Mu is busy earning favor points now and doesn’t want to waste a day.
"One night is enough." The old man said with a smile.
"What if I lose?"
Su Mu asked, it is impossible for the other party to go after him for no reason, there must be conditions.
"If I win, I would like you to do me a small favor." Lao Dao replied.
“What small favor?” Su Mu frowned and said, “First tell me what favor you want me to do.”
What if the other person's lion opens his mouth?
So, you have to say hello in advance.
"Don't worry, sir. It's just a little effort for you. If you are not satisfied, you don't have to help." The old Taoist said with a smile.
After thinking for a moment, Su Mu agreed: "Come ashore."
Hearing this, the old man waved his hand and said: "I can't go ashore yet."
"Let's play here."
After saying that, the old Taoist looked at the water in front of him, running his skills, and the majestic spiritual power burst out, and a one-meter-sized chessboard appeared in the water in front of him.
Immediately, the old Taoist waved his hand, and a drop of water gathered on his fingertip, transforming into a chess piece. As his finger fell, it landed on the Tianyuan position on the chessboard.
Seeing this, Su Mu was also a little surprised.
Using river water as a chessboard and using water drops to drop pieces?
interesting.
Su Mu also thought lightly, without even waving his hand, a drop of water left the water, turned into a chess piece, and landed on the chess game.
In this way, the two began to play chess.
Half an hour later, the two were facing each other tit for tat, each refusing to give in. However, the opponent's chess skills were very strong, which made Su Mu unable to resist.
Lao Dao also had a trace of sweat on his forehead, because he used the waters of the long river of time as a chess game and the water droplets of time as chess pieces, which consumed him greatly.
He can only open up a "one-meter-sized" water area as a chess game. For him now, this is the limit.
Unlike Su Mu, with a wave of his hand, he can directly stop the water in this period of time, and can also perform various changing operations.
When it came to an hour later, Su Mu was already at a disadvantage and looked solemn.
The old man is not having a hard time either. He is constantly controlling the water of time, and the consumption is too great. If he continues to drag on like this, the other party will not win, and he will not be able to hold on.
So, he had to fight quickly and could not delay.
He has been planning for today for too long, and he must not fail. Once he fails, he doesn't know how long it will take him to do it next time.
Every step the veteran takes is approaching step by step, hiding murderous intent, and preparing to end this chess game as quickly as possible.
Faced with the fierce offensive of the veteran, Su Mu also showed his true strength, showing off his tricks and defusing the opponent's attacks time and time again.
At this time, the old Taoist's eyes lit up, he caught an excellent flaw, and made a magical move!
