Traveling through Tianlong: Starting from the Zhenlong chess game

Chapter 97 Completing the Beiming Divine Art

Zhao Mu looked at his senior brother who was taking a nap comfortably, and couldn't help but recall his father, Prince Dongping.

When my father had free time, he would do the same thing as his elder brother, lying on a deck chair in the small courtyard where their mother and son lived. His mother lay on his lap like a kitten.

Although they were an old couple, their father had a very good relationship with their mother during his lifetime. If Zhao Mu hadn't been there, her mother might have died in love with her old husband and been buried with him.

Now Zhao Mu misses his old father very much. When the old man was alive, his life was the most nourishing, and he could get whatever he wanted. And the old prince doted on his youngest son the most. If his mother had not come from a humble background and he was not a direct descendant, the position of Prince Dongping would definitely belong to him.

People get sleepy easily as they get older, so Zhao Mu waited aside for two hours, from sunrise to sunset.

At this time, Su Xinghe stretched out and slowly took off the two leaves on his eyelids. He closed his eyes and stretched his muscles before asking: "Qinglu, when is it? Is it time to eat? ?”

Shi Qinglu said: "Master, the master uncle is back."

Hearing this, Su Xinghe hurriedly opened his eyes and saw Zhao Mu sitting on the chess table.

Su Xinghe yawned, and then said, "When did junior brother come back? Why didn't Qinglu let me know?"

Shi Qinglu came to the master with a basin of water and helped Su Xinghe wash his face.

Shi Qinglu said: "Uncle Master came back at noon. I have been waiting for you here for more than two hours."

After Su Xinghe washed his face and wiped it briefly, he looked at Shi Qinglu and scolded: "Ah? Then why didn't you wake me up as a teacher?"

After Zhao Mu dropped the last chess piece, he said: "Senior brother, don't be angry. I asked my nephew not to wake you up. Senior brother has been working on Master's affairs for half his life. Now he just wants to have a good sleep. I just waited too much." For a moment, what does it matter?"

Su Xinghe was somewhat embarrassed to have made Zhao Mu wait for so long. When he came to the chess game, he looked at the moves on the chess board and said, "Zhenlong chess game? Why did junior brother put this up again?"

Zhao Mu put down the chess piece in his hand and said, "Of course I invite someone to join the game!"

Then Zhao Mu told Su Xinghe everything about his experiences during this period, as well as the matter of obtaining the Beiming Magic Hand Scroll. He also informed Su Xinghe of his plan to use the Zhenlong chess game to surround and kill Ding Chunqiu.

However, Zhao Mu did not tell his senior brother everything. Except for his own privacy, he didn't say anything about Li Qiushui's betrayal.

After all, Li Qiushui is everyone's mistress, and Zhao Mu still wants to save some face for her. So he made some nonsense and said that she might be "dead".

Su Xinghe didn't pursue this matter further. After all, the master's wife is only a few years younger than the master, and now he is already old enough to reach his neck, let alone the master's uncle.

Zhao Mu asked: "Junior brother, I made this plan on my own initiative. I want to hear your opinion, senior brother."

Su Xinghe came back to his senses at this time and said: "Oh! It's nothing. At the moment, junior brother is the leader of my Xiaoyao sect, and it is such a big thing as eradicating traitors. Junior brother can make his own decision. If there is anything you need senior brother's help, just ask. That’s right. Senior brother, this old man, as long as he sees the traitor who deceived his master and destroyed his ancestors rectify the Fa before he dies, my wish in this life will be enough."

Hearing that Su Xinghe agreed, Zhao Mu also breathed a sigh of relief, so Zhao Mu said: "That's it, then this matter is settled. Senior brother doesn't have to do anything more, just play chess, entertain the guests, and then wait. Let’s just see junior brother bring that traitor to justice!”

Su Xinghe nodded.

At this time, Zhao Mu took out the scroll of Beiming Divine Skill from his arms and said: "By the way, senior brother, although I didn't find my uncle, I found his relics. The martial arts on it are exquisite. Jueluen, junior brother, I am not very qualified, and I really don’t understand some of the parts, so I would like to ask senior brother for some pointers.”

Su Xinghe heard this and took the scroll of Beiming Divine Art. He is not so happy because he is coveting the supreme martial arts of Xiaoyao Sect. Now that he is old, there is no point in coveting any martial arts skills. Besides, he himself didn't have much interest in martial arts. If he really wanted to learn it, Wu Yazi would have passed on all the essence of Xiaoyao Sect to him. There is no need to use any underhanded means.

Su Xinghe took over so simply because he was doing his duty as a senior brother. His master passed away and he, the senior brother, could only pass on the skills on his behalf.

But as soon as Su Xinghe opened the scroll, he couldn't help but take a breath of air, and then closed his eyes.

At his age, it is really difficult for him to watch such an exciting scene.

It's okay that the person in the painting is someone else, but it is Li Qiushui's own portrait.

Therefore, Su Xinghe just took one look at it and felt it was a bit "eye-catching". He even complained a little bit about his wife, not knowing whether it was because of his dirty thoughts or because she was "shameless".

Zhao Mu understood Su Xinghe's reaction very well. He then said: "Senior Brother, I don't understand the general outline of Beiming Divine Art. Please give me some advice."

As he spoke, Zhao Mu found out the part he didn't understand. Fortunately, this part was all text, and there was no small portrait of Li Qiu Shui's "Chuan Jin".

Su Xinghe breathed a sigh of relief and read the general outline of Beiming Divine Art, while Zhao Mu also pointed out what he didn't understand.

Su Xinghe said: "Oh! These places are like this." Then Su Xinghe explained to Zhao Mu sentence by sentence, and then started to point him out step by step.

Although Su Xinghe's martial arts is not very good, it does not mean that he is far behind.

As Wu Yazi's eldest disciple, Su Xinghe was one of the best in terms of qualifications, understanding, and other aspects. Although Su Xinghe is not good at martial arts and does not like to practice martial arts, his knowledge and understanding of martial arts are not much worse than others.

After hearing this, Zhao Mu felt enlightened as if the clouds were clearing and the sun appeared. The eldest brother accurately taught Zhao Mu the general outline of the Beiming Divine Skill in the most understandable terms.

Zhao Mu looked at his senior brother and felt that he was really underachieving by learning those useless miscellaneous subjects. If he concentrated on martial arts, his martial arts achievements might be better than his master, surpassing his master Wu Yazi and even his uncle. Wu Xingyun and his wife Li Qiushui became the first members of Xiaoyao Sect.

After Su Xinghe finished explaining to Zhao Mu, Shi Qinglu, who had cooked the rice, invited the two of them to have dinner.

The two junior brothers sat and ate opposite each other. Although there was a huge age difference between them, the relationship between the two junior brothers was very harmonious.

After dinner, Su Xinghe went back to his room to sleep. Shi Qinglu moved all the flowers and plants that could not be left outside overnight back into the house.

Zhao Mu, on the other hand, began to truly practice the Beiming Divine Art, which is the most powerful in the world.

At present, Zhao Mu has seventy years of Beiming Qi in his possession. If he can master the Beiming Divine Skill, he will be able to master it. His strength is probably only inferior to that of Wu Xingyun, Li Qiushui, and the sweeping monk.
