Chapter 219: Cao Guanzi makes a move in the chess game. Xiaoyao Sword Immortal, do you dare to make
Although Cao Changqing knew that everything was settled, he still wanted an answer.
He originally thought that Lin Heng and he were of the same kind, but in the end, it turned out that they were not on the same path, just taking different paths.
He was dressed in green, looking leisurely and contented, waiting for Lin Heng at the exit of Tai'an City.
Lin Heng could already feel Cao Changqing's presence before he even reached the gate of Tai'an City.
He knew that he would have to meet someone again today, and maybe even have to fight again.
This Cao Changqing, it is said that he sees things clearly. He has been well-read in poetry and books over the years and is a man of great talent. There is no chess game in this world that he cannot solve.
But he couldn't see clearly. For the sake of an obsession, he had been struggling until now and devoted his whole life to it. No matter how strong he was, he was ultimately a fool.
The end of this life has already been seen.
But now, he is the most difficult one. Most of the current fortune of Western Chu is brought about by Cao Changqing. It would be a joke for Western Chu to restore its country without Cao Changqing.
But he will not give up, so no matter how you look at it, this is a dead end that cannot be solved or sorted out.
Lin Heng shook his head helplessly. It was unavoidable anyway, so he might as well go and meet him.
Cao Changqing was originally standing outside the city with his eyes closed, but when he sensed Lin Heng's sword energy, he suddenly opened his eyes.
"Xiaoyao Sword Immortal, you have kept me waiting for so long! Please take a seat!"
Cao Changqing waved at Lin Heng, and Lin Heng raised his eyebrows and saw that a set of tables and chairs had been neatly placed in front of him.
There was even an unsolved chess game on the table.
Lin Heng was not polite either. He simply lifted up his robe and sat down.
"It's a pity there is no wine here, otherwise it would be worth drinking today."
Cao Changqing sat opposite Lin Heng without saying a word.
"Xiaoyao Sword Immortal, I actually always thought that we were similar. The position you have reached today is the closest step to the result I imagined. It's a pity that you gave up."
Lin Heng smiled faintly. This Cao Changqing was a straightforward person. He went straight to the point without even saying a few words of greeting.
"There is nothing similar between us, and besides, you are for the past, and I am for the future."
Cao Changqing's body suddenly shook. After carefully pondering Lin Heng's words, he could understand the deep meaning behind them.
"But I still don't quite understand you. You are clearly capable of doing this. Moreover, if the Sword Sect becomes stronger in the future, no one will let you sit back and relax."
"When that time comes, will you regret your decision today? You didn't force others into a dead end, but ended up causing sadness for yourself."
Lin Heng didn't say much, but took out a jar of wine from somewhere, placed two cups on the table, and poured a glass of wine for Cao Changqing first.
"There are not many people in this world who I can buy a drink for, and you are one of them, but I don't like your question."
"The future is the future, and the present is the present. Besides, I have reached my level now, so it is not difficult to trace the past and the future."
"I never regret anything I do. I just follow my heart. If I really kill them all today, will you be proud?"
"The Western Chu army has broken through Liyang, and then there will be a melee among all parties. The Northern Mang will also take advantage of the situation to invade. Of course, these have nothing to do with me. The Jianghu forces do not participate in the fights between you."
Cao Changqing took the wine glass silently.
"But you still made a choice, a choice that no one expected."
Lin Heng picked up the wine glass and raised it in the direction of Cao Changqing.
"That's because people in the martial arts world have a chivalrous heart. I use my sword to protect the mountains and rivers, and I don't want to see war. The mistakes of the superiors should not implicate others. Besides, I have achieved my goal."
"As for the rest, I will go to Beimang to take a look. This is the answer I can give you now."
Cao Changqing was quite surprised to see Lin Heng so resolute, but it also resolved his doubts.
He picked up a chess piece, held it up, and placed it on the chessboard.
"In that case, Xiaoyao Sword Immortal, the chess game in front of you is carefully set up by me. I am willing to give you a farewell party. Do you dare to make a move?"
Lin Heng put the wine glass aside and then carefully looked at the chess game on the table. Since Cao Changqing was testing him with chess today, there must be something fishy going on in this game.
"The final is invincible Cao Guanzi. If we talk about chess, who in this world can beat you? You are really making it difficult for me."
"If you ask me to fight with swords, that is my strong point, but forget about this game of chess."
Cao Changqing stared at Lin Heng, but suddenly made concessions.
"I can give you two sons, but Xiaoyao Sword Immortal is in such a hurry that he doesn't even have this little time?"
"You haven't even started the game yet, so how do you know you'll lose? I don't know about Xiaoyao Sword Immortal's chess skills, but when it comes to scheming, how many people in the world can compare to you, Lin Baiyi?"
Lin Heng suddenly paused. He finally understood that unless he finished the chess game today, he would have to compete with Cao Changqing.
Either play chess or compete in martial arts, you can only choose one of the two.
"Okay, in that case, I will play this game of chess, but this game is based on the entire world. Do you want to play alone?"
Lin Heng said as he dropped the chess piece. Cao Changqing also dropped the chess piece without making a sound.
"It's okay for me to join the game alone. There is no one else in this game, except you, of course."
"Although you seem to be in the play, you are always an outsider. However, your position will determine the success or failure of either party, so I definitely want you to see this chess game."
Although Lin Heng had never practiced chess specifically, the chess records he exchanged with the system were directly reflected in his mind, so generally speaking, playing chess with other people was not a difficult task at all.
He can even change different styles. The chess game is unpredictable and he can master any change.
What a pity, the opponent is Cao Changqing, a man who never plays chess according to dogma. What's more, his chess game is too big and includes more than just the chess pieces themselves.
And when they play chess, it is not just ordinary moves.
Even at the beginning of the game, it was already an endgame, and the two players were just making their moves on this basis.
In fact, what we are fighting for is not victory or defeat, but the direction of the world's fortune.
“View the world through chess. The world is a chessboard, but you are not a chess piece, and neither are others.”
Lin Heng placed a piece down, and suddenly the chessboard was connected into a series of crisscrossing lines, which were even glowing faintly.
