Chapter 503

The problem is that he has done all the risky things, and there is no room for bargaining, and he can't fight Niu Youdao for this little thing.

He wanted to open his mouth to bite someone but he didn't bite, but was grabbed by the neck instead. There is no medicine for regret in the world. What he wants to do now is to finish that matter as soon as possible, and hold Niu Youdao's handle in his hands, so that he doesn't dare to call him around like a dog's leg.

So Chao Shenghuai still had a 'chance encounter' with Chen Tingxiu.

The old Panasonic outside the courtyard, a stone table, where Chen Tingxiu sits drinking tea and watching the mountains, rivers and people here.

At present, he can only wait here, waiting for the news from his disciples in the Wanshoumen, and he is also waiting for Xihaitang to summon him to pay a visit on behalf of Tianyumen.

He somehow felt that Tianyumen was still a little weak in the eyes of Wanshoumen, otherwise Xihaitang would not be so busy no matter how busy it was, at least he, the elder of Tianyumen, would not feel that he was in the back row. There is something wrong.

The stone path in the mountain was winding and slanting, Chao Sheng came here leisurely, and passed outside the small courtyard.

Chen Tingxiu turned her head to look at him, only to find that he just glanced at him arrogantly, and was ignored by him instead of being taken seriously.

The Wanshou Sect disciple who was in charge of entertaining the guests here paid respectful respect to Chao Shenghuai who was passing by, "Senior Brother Chao, why are you here, but what are your orders?"

"Walk casually." Chao Shenghuai replied casually, then raised his chin toward the yard, "Is there any visitor here?"

The disciple glanced at Chen Tingxiu under the tree, and replied: "The guest of Tianyu Gate in Nanzhou, Yan Kingdom."

Chao Shenghuai said, but he didn't seem to take it seriously, and continued to pass by.

It was Chen Tingxiu who took the initiative to get up and came over, and greeted with a smile, "I don't know which high-ranking apprentice is it?"

From the disciple's attitude, he could see that Chao Shenghuai's status should be unusual.

Chao Shenghuai stopped, turned his head and looked him up and down, "Who are you?"

The disciple sweated a little, isn't it a little too much for the guests?

Chen Tingxiu was not angry, he could look down on Niu Youdao's cultivation background and power, but he couldn't look down on this one in front of him, the more arrogant his attitude, the more he had a background, he cupped his hands and said, "Chen Tingxiu, the elder of Tianyu Gate in Nanzhou of Yan State .”

"Oh, it's a pleasure to meet you." Chao Shenghuai cupped his hands seemingly reluctantly.

After coming and going, they struck up a conversation like this, and the two finally sat under a tree and drank tea together.

After learning that Chao Shenghuai's grandfather is Chao Jing, the elder of Wanshoumen, Chen Tingxiu's attitude became more and more enthusiastic. And Chao Shenghuai seemed to enjoy his flattery, he couldn't control his mouth when he heard the flattery, and said what shouldn't be said...

In the pavilion, Niu Youdao was sitting in front of the stone table, wiping the shiny sword with a white towel very carefully, as if trying to make it spotless.

Yuan Gang looked at it for a while, and asked: "This is a violation of the school's rules. Will Zhou Tiezi do what you say?"

What he meant was that Zhou Tiezi was asked to follow up in the guest courtyard where Tianxingzong stayed. Of course, what Niu Youdao said was to ask Zhou Tiezi to do a little favor.

Niu Youdao focused on wiping the sword in his hand, "Whether it's not important, Chao Shenghuai will send news, I just want to know if he is worth helping. This Wanshoumen is not a good place, where there are people There are rivers and lakes, if you are not a person in the rivers and lakes, why bother to enter this rivers and lakes, helping him will only harm him, why not hide in peace and continue to do odd jobs, let him choose for himself!"

Yuan Gang raised his eyes, and saw Uncle Chen come out from the backyard, entered the pavilion, and asked, "What do you want me to do?"

Niu Youdao put the long sword back into its sheath in his hand, and the scabbard was on the ground. He held the hilt of the sword with one hand, looked in the direction of the backyard, and asked, "Have you come out of the house yet?"

Uncle Chen: "I knocked on the door, and they said they were meditating inside."

"It's hard to practice diligently." Niu Youdao smiled, and stretched out his hand to signal the other party, "Please sit down!" He raised his hand to Yuan Gang, "Tea!"

Yuan Gang turned around to pour tea and water.

Uncle Chen looked at the chessboard on the stone table, sat down slowly, and asked, "You didn't ask me to play chess, did you?"

Niu Youdao reached out to break the chess bowl, looked at the black and white pieces in the two bowls, deliberately turned the two bowls in one direction, pushed the bowl with white pieces over, asked for the bowl with black pieces, and picked up a black piece , "Pa" crisply, and then raised his hand to signal the opponent to accept the move.

Uncle Chen didn't know what he meant, but he knew that it was not as simple as playing chess, there must be something wrong, since he couldn't find out from the question, he took a look at it next, then twisted a white piece and pressed it on the chessboard, and responded.

After a few hands, Yuan Gang brought tea and poured two cups.

Niu Youdao dropped a sunspot and said, "Of these two teas, one is poisonous and the other is not. I don't know which one is poisonous. There is no antidote for this poison."

Yuan Gang glanced at him subconsciously, he poured the tea, didn't he know if it was poisonous or not? Not poisonous!

Uncle Chen, who held the white piece between his fingers, his eyes flickered, not knowing what the other party meant.

Niu Youdao added: "We each have one cup, you choose first, you can drink whichever cup you choose, and I drink the rest you pick, it's fair and reasonable."

Uncle Chen's pupils shrank suddenly: "What do you mean?"

Niu Youdao: "I will naturally say what do you mean after drinking this cup of tea."

Uncle Chen: "Alright, do I have to bet my life with you?"

Niu Youdao: "For the matchmaker?"

Chen Bo frowned: "What does this have to do with Matchmaker?"

"If you drink it, I will naturally give you a satisfactory explanation."

"What if I don't drink?"

"Get out immediately, and from now on, you are not allowed to appear by the matchmaker's side again."

"It's not up to you to decide whether I'm with Matchmaker or not."

"Being together for so long, you should know that I have a lot of ways to get you away from the matchmaker, such as disclosing your background. Not to mention other things, how will other people in Fufangyuan think of you as a spy, you can still stay Do you want to go on? You can choose for yourself, the tea is here, and I won’t force you.”

Uncle Chen was silent, staring at the two cups of tea for a long time, Fang Xuxu said: "Are you sure you will give me a satisfactory explanation after I drink it?"

Niu Youdao: "If it's just to kill you, don't wait until now."

Uncle Chen believes that eating and drinking together is not fortified, and the other party has too many opportunities to attack, so there is really no need to wait until now.

After the baizi in his hand fell, he raised his hand and hesitated between the two cups of tea, finally took one of them, held his head up and drank it, endured the scalding heat, and even drank the tea leaves, and showed Niu Youdao the empty cup, "you drink!"

Niu Youdao played with the chess pieces in his hand, stared at the chessboard to find the place, and replied: "I said, I don't know which one is poisonous, so there is no need to seek death by yourself."

Uncle Chen showed a slight anger on his usually expressionless face, "Is this the satisfactory explanation you gave me?"

Niu Youdao: "Okay, I'm just kidding you, there is no poison in the tea. Since you don't want to say who sent you here, I won't ask again in the future. I believe what you say. I just came to protect the matchmaker. There is no malice." With one hand holding the sword, the other hand dropped the ball, after the ball was dropped, the hand slowly took the teacup to his lips and blew, taking a few sips slowly.

Uncle Chen stared at the teacup in front of him and fell silent.

"It's your turn." Niu Youdao, who put down the teacup, motioned for the opponent to continue playing chess.

Chen Bo was already absent-minded, and Zhou Tiezi came back when he was killed in the chess game and was struggling.

Seeing that Niu Youdao was playing chess with someone, he was a little hesitant, wondering if he should come and talk about the matter.

Yuan Gang came out of the pavilion and exchanged a few words with Zhou Tiezi.

After Zhou Tiezi left, Yuan Gang returned, leaned over and whispered in Niu Youdao's ear, "Zhou Tiezi saw Chen Tingxiu enter the courtyard where Tianxingzong lived."

"It seems that my guess is confirmed, and it really came for me. Since it's on my head, it depends on the luck of this elder Chen whether he can go back alive." Niu Youdao hehe, but his voice was not serious Uncle Chen, who was on the opposite side, also had something to say to Uncle Chen, "Uncle Chen, please help me with something."

Uncle Chen said with a straight face, "What's the matter?"

Niu Youdao: "Go to Du Yunsang and scold him for me!"

Uncle Chen: "Are you kidding? Why don't you go yourself?"

Niu Youdao: "My life and death involve a lot of people. If you die, you will die yourself. My life is more precious than yours. It's not worth it for me to gamble with my life. You are different. You are a dead man." Chen Bogang wanted to open his mouth , was stopped by him raising his hand, "This matter has nothing to do with me, it's just that you, an old man in Fufangyuan, can't stand it anymore. Don't mention me from the beginning to the end, and don't cause me any trouble. See After Du Yunsang..."

After listening to what he explained to himself, Uncle Chen was a little confused, "What exactly do you want to do?"

Niu Youdao didn't explain why, he messed up the chess pieces on the chessboard, stood up with his sword in hand, turned around and left, "Timing is very important, don't delay, go, someone outside will guide you."

...

The person who led the way was Zhou Tiezi. After Chen Bo and Zhou Tiezi left, Niu Youdao and Yuan Gang came out from the yard.

Standing on the edge of the mountain, watching the two go away, Yuan Gang asked: "He ran to stand up for the matchmaker, how can Wen Xinzhao allow him to act wildly? Maybe he will die there!"

Niu Youdao: "Chen Tingxiu got the news that Wen Xinzhao beat the matchmaker out of jealousy. It was obvious that the matchmaker was having an affair with Du Yunsang. How could Chen Tingxiu go to Du Yunsang to deal with me? He didn't dare to be Du Yunsang about the matchmaker. Sang mentioned in person that if he was looking for excitement, he must have gone to see Wen Xinzhao alone, and Wen Xinzhao must have avoided Du Yunsang to see him because of his concern for the matchmaker. At this time, Du Yunsang must not have been with Wen Xinzhao. Together, it is a good time to meet Du Yunsang."

Yuan Gang: "But if you let him do that, his situation will still be very dangerous. Once Du Yunsang is angered... In order to confirm your guess in your heart, is it necessary to let him risk his life?"

"Don't let him go, let you go?"

"Master Dao, I would rather you let me go."

"Monkey, you're here again. He knew Du Yunsang and was a witness to what happened back then. As an old man next to the matchmaker, he is qualified to complain for the matchmaker. What are you going to do? You look like me People who are easy to arouse suspicion."

"What if he angered Du Yunsang and died at Du Yunsang's hands?"

"If Du Yunsang missed his old love, he wouldn't kill him. If he didn't kill him, it would be hard for me to get back the humiliation that the matchmaker suffered. Chen Bo was able to hide by the matchmaker's side for many years for the person behind it, and it must be the person behind it." For someone you trust, Du Yunsang killed that person's confidant, and created a strong enemy invisibly, wouldn't it be good to have another strong enemy to seek justice for Hong Niang?"

"Master Dao, you are really cold-blooded sometimes."

"In troubled times, it's hard to take care of everyone. I'm not a god. Someone has to make a sacrifice. Monkey, you can choose to play black or white at will. I don't need to choose most of the time. In a game of chess, you can only play Black!" Niu Youdao dropped his words and slowly turned and walked away with his sword, expressionless and lonely.

I ate one meal today, and I am extremely hungry now, there is no supper in the small place...
