Chapter 219 Lingzhu Daoyun, Leisure Time
"Old Doctor Chen, to be honest, my disciples and I are not traveling this time, but are being hunted by someone..."
Fang Tao told Old Doctor Chen the dilemma they were facing truthfully.
"... Old Doctor Chen, I don't know when those Liuyun Sect disciples will come after us.
But they are not kind people. If they come after us, they may cause trouble to you, old doctor.
So if possible, old doctor Chen, you may leave earlier."
"I didn't expect that Master Fang and you have experienced such a sad thing. But now it's windy and rainy outside, and there is a lot of water and mud on the road. I'm afraid our carriage will be difficult to move. Even if we leave now, we won't be able to go far.
Besides, since we are here, we should make the best of it. Since Liuyun Sect is a major sect in Yunzhou, I don't think it will be so unreasonable. We have no grudges with it. Even if they really come after us, we shouldn't be angered. Master Fang, don't worry."
After listening to Fang Tao's story, the old doctor did not show any panic, but comforted him.
Dashi, who was standing by, could not help but say, "Old Doctor Chen, you don't know that although the Liuyun Sect claims to be a famous and upright sect, it actually acts very domineeringly.
In Yunzhou, any family or small force that does not follow their wishes will be beaten and warned by them at the least, or even robbed and annexed at the worst.
You should not have too high expectations of their character."
"This Liuyun Sect is so domineering, don't you have other sects in Yunzhou that can check and balance them?" Lu Qing asked with some curiosity.
Fang Tao sighed and said, "In our Yunzhou, there are three first-class sects, among which the Liuyun Sect is the strongest. It is said that there is more than one Xiantian Realm ancestor in the sect, so even if it acts domineeringly, other forces can't do anything to it."
"I see." Lu Qing nodded.
"So, Old Doctor Chen, if we offend the Liuyun Sect, it is hard to say whether it will implicate you. I hope you will be more careful." Fang Tao said sincerely again.
"Okay, we'll leave after the rain stops." The old doctor nodded.
Fang Tao opened his mouth, meaning that he hoped the old doctor could leave earlier.
But he looked at the rain outside and felt that it was not realistic. He couldn't let him drive his benefactor into the wind and rain.
So in the end he closed his mouth and stared at the sky outside in a daze with worry.
Seeing him like this, Ma Gu felt funny.
These people must not have thought that the person in front of them was so powerful.
It's no wonder that the Lu Qing brothers and the old doctor's breath concealment skills are really amazing.
What the two of them showed now is only the cultivation of the Qi and Blood Realm. Among their group, the most powerful ones are still him, who is a great success in the Muscle and Bones Realm, and Zi'an, who is a minor success in the Muscle and Bones Realm.
This strength is not worth mentioning for a large sect, so it's not surprising that Fang Tao is worried.
But Fang Tao was not a bad person. He was not a person who would repay kindness with enmity. He did not help them in vain.
Because of the silence of Fang Tao and others, the atmosphere in the hall became a little dull.
However, Xiaoyan and Xiaoli did not have such worries. They felt bored, and after obtaining Lu Qing's consent, they took out the beast fighting chess from their luggage and started playing.
The old doctor also took out a medical classic and read it leisurely.
Even Lu Qing and Ma Gu were busy with their own things.
For example, Lu Qing simply immersed his mind into the eyebrow acupoint and silently offered sacrifices to the Earth Spirit Pearl.
Although he had left his mind imprint in the Earth Spirit Pearl before and recognized this treasure as his master.
But there was still a long way to go before he could completely control it, and he still needed to continue to offer sacrifices to his mind.
Moreover, as a treasure of the earth element, the Earth Spirit Pearl itself has the rhyme of Tao.
During the process of offering sacrifices, he was also feeling these rhymes of Tao.
Lu Qing had a hunch that if he could comprehend some truth from it, it would be of great benefit to him.
Just like that, after Lu Qing and others stopped talking, the hall became completely quiet.
However, soon, the sound of chess playing attracted the attention of Fang Tao and others.
At first, they thought that Lu Qing and others were playing chess, but when they turned around, they saw Xiaoyan and a black little beast sitting there, and their mouths couldn't help but slowly opened wide when they played chess seriously.
They still had some impression of Xiaoli, the black little beast, because they could see that it lay in Xiaoyan's arms most of the time.
However, they all thought that it was just a pet raised by Xiaoyan.
After all, judging from their clothes, the old doctor and others should not be ordinary people.
It's normal for a wealthy family to raise a pet.
But now Xiaoli was playing chess with Xiaoyan seriously, and Fang Tao and others felt confused.
A little beast that can play chess? Not to mention seeing it, they haven't even heard of it!
"Don't be surprised, Xiao Li is Xiao Yan's playmate since childhood. They are used to playing around. If they are making noises for you, I will ask them to keep their voices down."
The old doctor who was reading a medical book looked up and saw Fang Tao and the others' stunned expressions, so he explained.
"No, it's okay." Fang Tao waved his hand quickly.
But he couldn't hide his curiosity.
"Old Doctor Chen, this little beast, can it really play chess?"
"It's called Xiao Li, because it is very intelligent, it has learned some things about our human race through what it has seen and heard." The old doctor explained.
Fang Tao and the others were immediately amazed.
I really didn't expect that a little beast could be so intelligent. Legend has it that in some famous rivers and mountains, some monkeys can communicate with people. This black little beast is probably not worse than that.
Out of curiosity, several people couldn't help but come to Xiao Yan and Xiao Li and watch them play chess.
Then, after a few glances, they were surprised again.
Because they found that they had never seen Xiao Yan and Xiao Li play chess before.
"Miss Xiaoyan, what kind of chess are you playing? Why are there tigers and mice?"
Dashi looked at it for a while and finally couldn't help asking.
"Beast Fighting Chess, it's fun!"
Xiaoyan answered happily, and then pushed a chess piece and ate one of Xiaoli's leopards.
The black beast's eyes suddenly widened, as if he hadn't thought of this move.
"Beast Fighting Chess?"
Fang Tao and the others were even more confused. They had never heard of this kind of chess.
"This is a chess that I figured out when I was bored. The rules are simple. It's for Xiaoyan and the others to play with. It's not worthy of being played in a formal place. I'm sorry to embarrass you." The old doctor smiled.
"So that's it."
Fang Tao looked at it for a while and found that it was indeed the case. The rules of this beast fighting chess were not complicated.
It's just a simple game of big eating small. You don't need to learn it in order to master it.
No wonder even an alien like the black beast can learn it. It turns out to be such a simple chess.
Fang Tao shook his head with a smile.
He was really a little scared just now, thinking that Xiao Li really knew how to play those advanced chess games. If so, his intelligence would be too scary.
However, although the beast chess was simple, Dashi and other young people still watched it with great interest.
On weekdays, they spent most of their time practicing martial arts and did not have much access to entertainment. When they saw this new thing for the first time, they found it very interesting.
Just when Lu Qing and others were leisurely waiting for the rain to stop in the Taoist temple.
In a dark cave hundreds of miles away from them, a figure with dishevelled hair looked at the scattered stones in front of him, a little crazy.
