Pawn Crossing the River

Xu Jiaorong and Yao Pei have returned to Borneo from East Borneo. One is the second deputy palace master in charge of law, and the other is the deputy palace master representing Fengxian Hall. For them to come forward means that it is just a matter of internal discipline of the Taoist sect. , not to mention defection and collaboration with the enemy. If Beichen Tang takes action, then the nature of it will be complicated.

This can be regarded as some leeway left by Qi Xuansu.

Beichen Hall and Fengxian Hall have overlapping responsibilities. The reason why Beichen Hall is the third hall is not only that it has greater authority and wider scope of responsibilities, but more importantly, Beichen Hall actually controls part of the military force. Although from the book In terms of numbers, it is far less big than Tiangangtang, but it is far less restricted than Tiangangtang. On the contrary, it is more flexible than Tiangangtang in non-war times, so it appears to be strong.

Feng Xiantang does not control force, but most of the time, Feng Xiantang does not need to use force to arrest people. Few people dare to resist directly with force, and most of them are captured without mercy.

Strictly speaking, the main responsibility of Fengxiantang is to judge, not to arrest. The two should be separated. However, as time goes by, some circumstances have changed. The trial has become a formality, and Fengxantang will also Arrest people personally. In contrast, Beichen Hall will also directly convict people.

Qi Xuansu did say that the Dao Sect was not the imperial court of the Wei Dynasty and had never acted like Qingluan Guard, but the actual situation was more complicated and not that simple. Many times, on paper, on the table, and openly, it is one thing, but in actual operation, under the table, and secretly, it is another thing.

Of course, when it comes to procedures, strictly speaking, it was the Taoist government represented by Xu Jiaorong, the second deputy palace master, who carried out the arrest. This is also the reason why Qi Xuansu did not come forward in person. As the chief deputy palace master, he has no responsibilities in this regard.

And this time it was indeed different. Wang Jiaoying was not someone who could be easily captured. He had to rely on the Taoist force to encircle and arrest him.

This was also Qi Xuansu's intention to send the assistant manager of Tiangang Hall and the second-grade spiritual officer in advance to monitor Wang Jiaohe.

These watchers can turn into captors at any time.

Although it was already very late, it was not just Qi Xuansu who was awake. In fact, most of the people in the Taoist mansion were awake. Everyone could smell the tense atmosphere permeating the Shenglong mansion.

Chen Jianchou came to the Water Palace and met Xu Jiaorong.

Chen Jianqiu didn't need to say anything, Xu Jiaorong already knew his purpose - for a former secretary, it was a basic skill to figure out people's hearts based on the situation.

Xu Jiaorong asked: "Chief Qi has made up his mind?"

Chen Jianchou nodded.

Xu Jiaorong stood up: "Then let's go."

Yao Pei is also in the water palace. After all, the water palace is very big and there cannot be only two signed rooms.

Wang Jiaoying really wanted to escape from Shenglong Mansion, and he did so in a hurry.

The most direct reason is that Wang Jiaohe and Sun Heyu are no longer in Shenglong Mansion. He didn't know whether his brother escaped first or encountered something unexpected, but he knew one thing very well. The situation had reached a very critical point. He had to either leave or sit back and wait for death.

It's not his style to sit still and wait for death, so he has no choice but to leave.

Whether you can walk away or not cannot be known until you try.

Wang Jiaoying did not choose to leave Shenglong Mansion by flying. It would be too conspicuous. Today's Shenglong Mansion is really full of masters. Master Jiang Da has not left yet, so he left by flying.

Gradually, the city gate got closer and closer, and the tall gate tower like a crawling beast could be vaguely seen in the darkness.

Wang Jiaoying, as the deputy palace lord in charge of Dayu Kingdom, has been operating in Shenglong Palace for many years. Naturally, he has many close friends. Even if the Wang family building is about to collapse, this will still be the case. The person in charge of this city gate is his man, and he has made arrangements in advance to leave the city from here.

When Wang Jiaoying came to the city gate, the city gate did not open as expected.

This made Wang Jiaoying's heart sink.

Immediately afterwards, fire lit up on top of the city.

A second-grade spiritual officer wearing pitch-black armor walked out of the shadow of the city gate: "Deputy Palace Master Wang, it's so late, where are you going?"

At the same time, the assistant manager of the Tiangang Hall branch also appeared on the city wall, surrounded by a large number of spiritual officials, and the long blunderbuss in his hands was already aimed at Wang Jiaoying from a high position.

"Wang Jiaoying, you have been caught in the sky, why don't you just surrender?"

Wang Jiaoying knew that he was being plotted and shouted: "How dare you arrest me? I am the deputy master of the Taoist Palace!"

"Then with me and Jin Que's orders, can I arrest you?" Then a voice sounded.

Xu Jiaorong appeared, and beside her was a young female Taoist priest, Yao Pei.

The two of them just blocked Wang Jiaoying's retreat.

In the blink of an eye, Wang Jiaoying had fallen into heavy siege.

Wang Jiaohe held a high position because he wanted to know the real person. Killing him would have too great an impact. It could be said that the rabbit would die and the fox would be sad. It could also be said that he would not be able to be punished as a doctor. Therefore, Wang Jiaohe could still save his life and could stay in the Demon Locking Tower. spend the rest of your life.

Wang Danqing was a playboy, not doing his job properly, but it was this "not doing his job" that saved him. Whether it was the real job or the family's "right job", he was not deeply involved in it. On the contrary, he was not guilty, and at least he would not be punished until death. . Although he offended Qi Xuansu, Qi Xuansu was not willing to ruin his reputation because of such a trivial matter. Instead, he would deal with it fairly.

This is also the reason why Wang Jiaohe took the initiative to deliver Wang Danqing to Qi Xuansu - if Wang Danqing did not fall into the hands of Qi Xuansu, but fell into the hands of others, then these people may be trying to please Qi Xuansu. Directly and proactively deal with Wang Danqing on his behalf. Only by falling into the hands of Qi Xuansu can Wang Danqing be safe.

But Wang Jiaoying was not a real person, and he was deeply involved in various affairs of the Wang family, including forcing the palace. He personally came forward, and there had to be someone to blame, and he was almost certain to die.

What's more, when he forced the palace, he had already offended Xu Jiaorong to death. Now that he was in Xu Jiaorong's hands, how could he survive?

Therefore, Wang Jiaoying did not take any chances and began to fight without hesitation.

Yao Pei had been prepared for this for a long time. How could Wang Jiaoying get his wish? He waved his sleeves and flew out a chessboard. Then the chessboard became larger and larger, with a radius of more than ten feet, and headed towards Wang Jiaoying.

Normally, Wang Jiaoying would have been able to escape, but now he was surrounded by people and it was impossible to escape.

When Wang Jiaoying came back to his senses, he found that he and Yao Pei were on the chessboard, which was as big as a chess piece. Looking around, he saw nineteen vertical and horizontal lines extending very far, and he couldn't see the end even with his best eyesight. Apart from this, no one else was seen, and no one saw Shenglong Mansion. Wang Jiaoying knew that he had fallen into a small world, so he could only wait attentively.

At this moment, the entire chessboard shook violently. Yao Pei and Wang Jiaoying began to rise upwards and looked down. Finally, they could have an overview of the entire chessboard, as if they were looking down on the earth from the sky. It was extremely spectacular. At the same time, there was another chess box in the hands of the two people, divided into black and white.

The name of this chessboard is "Splendid Jiangshan", which means that the chessboard is made of mountains and rivers, which are semi-immortals of the Quanzhen Tao. Once you enter this game, if you cannot break this place, you can only leave the game with a winner and a loser. Those who do will have to accept punishment.

Yao Pei reached out and grabbed a handful of white chess pieces: "Guess first."

Wang Jiaoying had no choice but to grab a black chess piece. If it indicated an odd number, his side would hold black, otherwise he would hold white.

Yao Pei released his palm, and three white stones fell from his palm, an odd number. Wang Jiaoying held the black stone first.

Wang Jiaoying came from a noble family and was not a rough man who didn't understand elegance. After some thought, he took out a black piece and dropped it towards the chessboard at his feet. When he left his hand, he saw that the chess piece was only the size of an ordinary chess piece, but it kept getting bigger as it fell. , when it landed on the chessboard, it was already the size of a millstone, allowing people to see it clearly.

Yao Pei picked up a white piece with two fingers and dropped it.

The two kept making moves, and soon two big dragons, one white and one black, were formed on the chessboard. And above the chessboard, two long dragons appeared, glaring eagerly, baring their teeth and claws.

The big dragon on the chessboard was born in response to the two of them, and their minds are connected. If it is slaughtered, the host will also suffer heavy losses.

When you are on the chessboard, the chess pieces in the chess box are actually the result of your own cultivation. The number of chess pieces is also related to your own level of cultivation. If you are a person with a low level of cultivation, the number of chess pieces is not as good as that of the opponent, and there will be no pieces in the middle of the game. But Luo, of course, lost. And if the chess pieces that fall on the chessboard are surrounded and eaten by opponents, their own cultivation will be damaged. If they lose a big loss, their cultivation will be greatly damaged, and even their lives will be in danger.

This semi-immortal object was extremely aimed at Wang Jiaoying, not giving Wang Jiaoying a chance to die together, and directly competing for realm cultivation and chess prowess. In a competition of realm cultivation, with Wang Jiaoying's cultivation it would not be a problem to finish the game, and he would not be dragged into a situation where he had no children. Yao Pei dared to fight with this object, so he was naturally extremely confident in his own chess ability.

Although Wang Jiaoying can play chess, he is not a master of this skill. He played a few games in his spare time, but he lost more than he won. At this time, he might not be able to win against Yao Pei.

As the two people continued to place pieces, there were more and more chess pieces on the chessboard, and the two dragons in the air above the chessboard became more and more majestic, and as the two people fought on the chessboard, they began to bite continuously.

Yao Pei's face was always expressionless, except for his eyes, which were white.

The reason why she chose this semi-immortal object is very simple. She is invincible in the world when playing chess.

The first eighty moves between the two of them were nothing surprising. However, after the eighty moves, Yao Pei began to gradually exert his strength. In the middle of the game, the chessboard was full of murderous intent. Then after the one hundred and eighty moves, Yao Pei started to exert his strength. Pei is already in a great situation where he is sure to win first and finish first.

In mid-air above the chessboard, the big black dragon representing Wang Jiaoying was already covered in wounds and had no strength to fight anymore. However, Wang Jiaoying was implicated and his breath weakened.

Wang Jiaoying's face was ashen and he could only throw in the towel and admit defeat.

At this moment, the black dragon symbolizing Wang Jiaoying completely collapsed, leaving only the white dragon representing Yao Pei on the top of the chessboard.

Immediately after asking, clouds filled the top of the chessboard, with faint lightning and thunder, and then the body of the white dragon began to grow bigger and bigger, its huge head poked out of the clouds, and golden eyes as big as a human head stared at Wang Jiao. Eagle, two dragon whiskers are floating leisurely, and there are wisps of white breath escaping between the teeth.

Yao Pei landed on the top of the white dragon's head, and the escaping white aura became stronger and stronger. Then the dragon's body rose again and half of it was exposed. Huge dragon claws and distinct scales were visible.

The white dragon roared loudly, resounding throughout the world. The clouds rolled and surged like angry waves, gathering around the white dragon. The layers were superimposed, becoming more and more misty and unpredictable.

The strong wind rose, Bailong opened his mouth and spat out, and the white breath was like substance, condensed into a giant pillar, like the Milky Way falling from the sky, and fell towards Wang Jiaoying head-on.
