Chapter 981 Playing chess is always the beginning of some kind of murder
The subsequent connection went very smoothly. The boss did not make any difficult requests and directly handed the [key] to Ling Ying.
I don’t know what the secret connection process of [Nanli Daoyu] is, but Mo Cheng can feel that the designer of this process probably has this magical little brain.
The appearance of the [key] is a dice. It is obvious that the so-called [key] is just a metaphor.
Along the way, Ling Ying looked at the dice in her hand absentmindedly, as if she was thinking about how to combine this dice with the other half of the [key].
What Mo Cheng didn't notice was that Ling Ying's attention was not on the dice, but her eyes looked at him from time to time.
After walking for a while, Ling Ying couldn't help but ask, "Does the poem just now have a name?"
In a sense, the disciples of the three religions and hundreds of schools are all professionals trained by their respective religions and schools. They still have basic discernment in poetry. Every disciple of the three religions and hundreds of schools who travels outside can talk about cultural heritage, the research on demons and the origin of species.
Mo Cheng didn't think too much about the name, and just casually said a name, "Let's call it [Zeng Xunyue]."
The words were ambiguous and mentioned the names of certain things. Mo Cheng, who was walking in front, did not realize that the person behind him had blushing cheeks and the dice in his hand almost fell to the ground.
The figure behind him spoke in a voice as soft as a mosquito's murmur for some reason, "This song and [Li Si] are both..."
"Yes, I copied it."
Mo Cheng paused after answering and couldn't help but sigh softly. He knew that his statement was totally unconvincing. "Forget it, you can just treat it as something I wrote."
Rather than going to great lengths to explain that he copied these poems, which would lead to all sorts of troublesome questions like who copied them and where they came from, Mo Cheng chose the simplest option.
After Mo Cheng admitted that he wrote all these poems, Ling Ying couldn't help but feel flustered.
Because of the [Gift to Xunyue] that Mo Cheng had just made, and also because Ling Ying knew that her cold and aloof junior sister had extraordinary concern and feelings for Mo Cheng.
In an instant, the head of the [Moon] District had a lot of thoughts in his mind, but his thoughts were like a tangled mess.
Suddenly, Mo Cheng stopped and looked somewhere on the street.
I saw a student in blue clothes holding a feather fan in one hand, slowly approaching while waving the fan gently, while in his other hand, he held something that Mo Cheng Lingying was very familiar with.
A piece of paper, a piece of rice paper with a poem written on it.
Ten minutes ago, the two men personally handed the thing to the bookstall owner, but now it was in each other's possession.
"How can one achieve both in this world, without disappointing the Tathagata and without disappointing you?"
The visitor shook his head and exclaimed, "If you are moved by love, you will betray Buddhism. But if you are not moved by love, you will betray the beauty. Buddhism and beauty are difficult, difficult, difficult."
After solemnly putting away the rice paper, the visitor looked at Mo Cheng, "Qilin Talent."
The person who came knew Mo Cheng's identity, and Mo Cheng also knew who the person who appeared in front of him was, "Ghost Yimouduan."
"You don't seem weird."
What's so strange? Why would the strange ghost Yimouduan appear at this time?
For Mo Cheng, this was not something to be surprised about.
"If I conquer a city, the first thing I have to deal with is the possible spies in the city. I don't believe that [Nanli Daoyu] doesn't have any hidden hands in the cities. If it didn't, this place would have been divided up long ago, and it wouldn't be my turn to conquer it. After finding the spies, it will be easy to find more information if I find someone to keep an eye on them."
The appearance of Gui Yimouduan indicates that the battle is about to begin. The opponent's communication at this time may be to delay time, or he may have other plans.
But Mo Cheng also had absolute confidence in his own martial arts. The reason he did not take action at this time was not only because he wanted to catch the opponent in one fell swoop, but also because of his concerns.
He was concerned about Ling Ying beside him and the people in the city.
"It is said that Gui Yimou is the smartest among the Ten Directions Demon Bandits. If you can't do this, you won't be able to break into the Nanli Dao Realm."
After Gui Yimou heard this, he couldn't help but clap his hands and laugh, "Qilin talent, your reputation is well-deserved. I have prepared tea in my house, you can come and talk in detail."
Gui Yimou extended the invitation without hesitation. He was not worried that Mo Cheng would refuse, because he and Mo Cheng both knew what the other party wanted to do at this moment. "Even if you want to crack the [key], you might as well crack it while chatting. I can wait, and the people in the city can wait, but I don't know if the Qilin talent can wait any longer."
Either go to his house for tea or start fighting now.
The meaning expressed by Gui Yimou was very clear. He was gambling that Mo Cheng would not dare to take the first step because of his concerns.
He bet that his brother could arrive before Mo Cheng killed him.
"Then I am sorry to bother you."
Mo Cheng did not refuse. At this time, the two of them put their lives on the gambling table at the same time, gambling on each other's lives.
Mo Cheng didn't know why Gui Yimouduan was so hostile to him, but he didn't need to know the specific situation.
The three of them came to Gui Yimouduan's residence. As soon as they sat down, Mo Cheng took the lead and said, "It seems that your brothers are stuck. They won't be able to get here soon."
A cold light flashed across Mo Cheng's eyes, like a ferocious beast at the top of the food chain observing its prey, "Then you are in danger now."
"In my opinion, Qilin Talent's situation is more dangerous than mine."
Gui Yimou ignored the threat and even took out a chessboard. "It's still early, how about a game of chess?"
"With the distance between us now, your life is in my hands. Aren't you afraid?" As he said this, Mo Cheng took the black piece and played first.
"What about you? The people in the city, the beautiful woman beside you, once the war breaks out, how many people can survive? And the beautiful woman beside you... I will not let down Tathagata, I will not let you down, will you let her down?"
While saying this, Gui Yimou looked at Ling Ying and said, "Boss Ling Ying, I have heard of your great name for a long time."
Mo Cheng and Ling Ying's disguises were not able to deceive each other at all.
Gui Yimouduan had a strong sense of self-confidence, as if Mo Cheng could never hurt him.
What does he rely on?
Is it his strategy?
Or is it the unique [magical power] of [Ten Directions Demon Bandits]?
Or is it simply a case of the fox taking advantage of the tiger's might?
Now there is only Gui Yimou left. It would be extremely easy to kill him, but Mo Cheng suppressed the impulse.
Gui Yimou was confident that his brothers could kill Mo Cheng together, and Mo Cheng also wanted to kill all the "Ten Directions Demon Bandits" at once.
The goals of both parties are the same in terms of process, and they are all waiting for the gathering of the Ten Directions Demon Bandits.
At this time, Mo Cheng could only hope that Ling Ying could decrypt the [key] before the [Ten Directions Demon Bandits] gathered and allow irrelevant personnel to move away.
Otherwise, he can only use the [backup plan].
