The lake in front of me is not vast, about a hundred feet in size, surrounded by large patches of dense forests. The breeze blows by, the shadows of trees sway, and the lake is rugged. There are a few thin rays of spiritual mist scattered on the surface.

"Open the shield and follow me." Zuo Ningshan looked solemn, and at this time he had already blessed several layers of shining shields.

Liu Zhuo thought about it secretly, and couldn't help but pinch the Taoist magic tricks and blessed himself with a earth-level shield. Then he frowned and looked a little worried. He blessed himself with a low-level shield of water-level shield.

Then, led by Zuo Ningshan, the two of them jumped into the lake and walked slowly down.

As soon as he entered the water, Liu Zhuo felt that he had been deeply trapped in a light green world. At the same time, the shields around him directly separated the lake water, and the surface was filled with earth light.

After the master and apprentice sank to the bottom of the lake together, Zuo Ning Mountain walked straight to the distance along the lake shore.

At this time, Liu Zhuo felt great pressure. He found that the deeper he dived, the greater the pressure on the shield by the lake water. He had to mobilize more spiritual breath to replenish the consumption of the shield.

At the bottom of the green lake, fish fry passes by from time to time, the water and grass are flowing, and the scenery is unique, but the master and apprentice both have their own thoughts and have no time to appreciate it.

At this time, the two of them arrived at the end of the lake shore, and in front of them was a formation made of five attributes of spirit stones.

This formation is arranged very strangely, and at the same time, there is no lake water on the space above the formation.

"Disciple, go in first." Zuo Ningshan said with a cold face.

Liu Zhuo looked at the formation suspiciously, then cheered up and walked in with a bit of bullet.

I felt a chill all over, and the next moment, Liu Zhuo was already in front of a mansion.

This mansion is not majestic, it can be said to be very small, but its shape is particularly unique, with an ancient appearance. There is a silver snake pattern on the copper nail door. At the same time, the two blue characters "Pang Palace" are also written on the plaque.

Then, the magic circle behind him was filled with light, and Zuo Ningshan's Kuanshuo's figure also appeared in it.

Liu Zhuo looked at Zuo Ningshan with inquiring eyes.

Zuo Ningshan pondered and said, "This is an abandoned palace. The original owner was a python demon. Later, this python demon was not good enough and was killed by the monks of the Confucius Sect, so it was abandoned. Now you can go in with your master."

At that moment, Zuo Ningshan waved his sleeves and pushed open the gate of the Python Palace invisibly, and walked in first.

Liu Zhuo followed behind, but was looking at everything around him with suspicious eyes. Zuo Ningshan's explanation was too far-fetched. He didn't believe it at all. If the monk from Confucius killed the python demon, how could such a mansion that was as magical as he could be abandoned for no reason?

The interior of this python palace is also very delicate, but the layout is slightly narrow.

The master and apprentice went straight to the backyard of the Python Palace. Zuo Ningshan pushed open the backyard door directly, and a thick rock wall appeared in front of the two of them.

Liu Zhuo discovered that in the center of the rock wall, there was a square gravure print, which seemed to play the role of opening the rock wall.

At this moment, Zuo Ningshan took out the roll of dry bamboo slips from the storage bag. Suddenly, the surface of the originally inconspicuous bamboo slips shone with colorful glow.

Zuo Ningshan slowly inserted the bamboo slip into the gravure mark, and at the same time, his white eyebrows frowned, and the spiritual breath in his body began to penetrate into the rock wall continuously.

Suddenly, Liu Zhuo felt a slight tremor on the ground under his feet, and the tremor became stronger and stronger, and roars came from the ground.

The bottom of the thick rock wall slowly raised about an inch of distance, and a golden light burst out from it.

As the rock wall continued to rise and finally reached a height of about three feet, Zuo Ningshan suddenly retracted the bamboo slips, and the rock wall similar to the stone gate also stopped rising.

Liu Zhuo looked at Zuo Ningshan and found that although Zuo Ningshan was sweating coldly, he was not exhausted.

"It seems that this old guy's spiritual breath has not been exhausted." Liu Zhuo secretly guessed, and he drilled through the cracks of the rock with Zuo Ningshan and entered the other end of the rock wall.

On the other end of the rock wall is a huge stone chamber of hundreds of feet tall and short, and the middle is occupied by a majestic chess platform of ten feet size. This chess platform emits dazzling colorful rays, with hook marks on the surface interlaced horizontally and vertically, and the top is covered with huge black and white chess pieces. The arrangement of these chess pieces is extremely strange, and there seems to be a certain pattern in the dark.

Obviously, this is a chess game.

Looking at the wonder of the scene in front of him, Liu Zhuo couldn't help but be amazed. What surprised him even more was that these chess pieces that were the size of human heads were all polished with low-level spirit stones.

"It's here. This [Four-Elephant Chess Game] has been studying hard for eighty years, but it has not been able to untie it." Zuo Ningshan sighed at the huge chess platform in front of him, then suddenly turned his head to look at Liu Zhuo, and said with excitement: "Disser, now it depends on you. Your chess power is far better than your master. As long as you unlock this chess game, you have fulfilled your long-cherished wish for many years. You will agree to everything for your master. Whether you want to learn alchemy or how many spirit stones you want, your master will satisfy you!"

Looking at Zuo Ningshan who was frenzy in front of him, Liu Zhuo looked calm, but he was even more suspicious. He did not think Zuo Ningshan's promise was very credible.

Just to unravel the chess game?

This must have great benefits!

Liu Zhuo wandered for a moment, as if he had made up his mind: "Okay, my disciple has to do his best."

"Hold it." Zuo Ningshan waved his hand and sent the bamboo slips in his hand to Liu Zhuo in front of him.

"This is a chess book that I got accidentally obtained by my teacher. Please take a look, it should be helpful for breaking the deadlock." Liu Zhuo took the bamboo slip with a puzzled look on his face, and Zuo Ningshan's words with tremolo sounded in his ears.

After unfolding the bamboo slips and reading them carefully, Liu Zhuo couldn't help but sigh in his heart.

Rather than saying that this is a chess book, it is better to say that it is a monk who has been studying the four-game chess game for many years.

Although the monk failed to finally solve the four-chess game, his understanding of Go and various experiences of breaking the game made Liu Zhuo feel that he benefited a lot. Moreover, at the end of the chess book, some very unfamiliar magic tricks were recorded.

After finishing reading the bamboo slips at a very fast speed, Liu Zhuo looked at the chess table in front of him and began to think deeply.

However, what he was thinking about was not the chess game in front of him, but Zuo Ningshan's real intention.

This bamboo slip is obviously a long time ago, as Liu Zhuo knew, and only in the Great Zhou Dynasty, a thousand years ago, or even more distant era, was written in bamboo slips before paper was invented. In this way, it is obvious that this chess book has been a long time ago.

"How is it? Are you sure to untie it?" Zuo Ningshan waited for a moment and asked slightly anxiously.

Liu Zhuo calmly put away the bamboo slips and nodded, "I'll try it."

After saying that, Liu Zhuo pinched the magic trick, and the blue clouds under his feet swelled up and carried him to the sky above the huge chess platform.

After reaching a certain height, Liu Zhuo saw that he could see the entire chess stage, his spiritual sense moved and stabilized Qingyun.

Only by looking down from such a height can you truly see the full picture of the four-chess game.

In the chess game, each piece emits a faint glow, and dense black and white pieces gather together to form a colorful cloud of smoke.

After Liu Zhuo looked carefully, he suddenly realized that in the hazy mist, there seemed to be four four-simile spirit beasts with different appearances and ferocious expressions roaring loudly.
