Swire Overlord

Chapter 270 A chess piece

Zhao Yufan was in a good mood recently, so he deliberately asked, "What do you want?"

"You don't know what I want as a girl?" Hong Ling stared at her big watery eyes, as if hinting at something.

"Oh..." Zhao Yufan rubbed his hands with a look of sudden realization, and said softly, "You want me to marry you."

"Uh..." Hongling and Yurou were stunned for a moment, then Yurou covered her mouth and smiled lightly, while Hongling glared and said angrily, "Bastard, who told you to marry me?"

Zhao Yufan smiled without saying a word, and after a long time, he asked with a serious face, "Tell me about the news."

Hong Ling blushed slightly, took out a huge silver ax and sat on the handle, resting her chin and looking up at the sky, not bothering to pay attention to Zhao Yufan.Yurou glanced at the two of them helplessly, and said softly, "The six major sects, the forces of the imperial capital, and the forces of the Demon Dao are almost hostile to you. They said they would deal with it fairly, and they didn't excuse you."

Yurou paused, looked at Zhao Yufan worriedly, and said, "The most important thing is that all the more than a thousand soldiers in Lingyuan Town were massacred."

"What?" Zhao Yufan stared, his face became extremely ugly, "Why did they die?"

Hong Ling dragged her chin, glanced at Zhao Yufan, and said in a cold voice, "Ask us again? We were about to ask you, and there are rumors outside that you did it."

"Me?" Zhao Yufan couldn't help laughing, "I've been here all this time, how could I kill someone?"

Yurou frowned and smiled bitterly: "The outside world said that you asked the sword demon to do it. And there are people who have evidence."

After staring at the two women carefully for a while, Zhao Yufan frowned and asked, "I can believe the evidence, but what is the physical evidence?"

"Sword wound!" Hong Ling stared, seeing Zhao Yufan frown as if in disbelief, and added: "I've seen the corpse, and it's confirmed to be a knife wound."

"Hongling, just because it was a knife wound, do you think it was done by the sword demon?" Zhao Yufan knew that the matter was more than that simple, but he still asked this question.He just wanted to see what those people who wanted to kill him did.

"The Sword Demon was once the Frozen Swordsman who destroyed the Frozen Imperial City, and the fatal knife wounds on the Frozen Swordsman were exactly the same as those of the soldiers. This is enough to show that the Sword Demon did it?" Hong Ling finished silently. , sighed helplessly, and she didn't believe that the sword demon did it, but she herself believed that such things were useless.

"The person killed by the sword demon should have nothing to do with me, right?" Zhao Yufan asked with a little interest.

Yurou rolled up her black hair by her ears, her expression was quite helpless, "You have had conflicts with soldiers and officers, and many civilians have seen you talking with the sword demon."

One link after another, this matter is not revealed, even if Zhao Yufan doesn't want to admit it.

Pursing his lips, Zhao Yufan joked, "If you say that, I still feel that I really did it."

The two women frowned and looked at Zhao Yufan, bowing their heads in silence.In fact, what they said just now is not the main point, they haven't said the important things yet.

"Come on, what else is there?" Zhao Yufan sat lazily on the ground, grabbed a handful of emerald green bamboo leaves, and threw them on the ground one by one.

Looking at Zhao Yufan in surprise, Hong Ling asked strangely, "How do you know there's something else to do?"

Seeing Hongling's innocent appearance, Zhao Yufan threw away a bamboo leaf and said with a smile, "Hey, over a thousand soldiers have died, so there must be an explanation? You think you'll be fine after you finish killing people."

Yurou pursed her lips, and said slowly: "Prime Minister Zuo is in charge of this matter now, someone will come to Danqimen to take you away in a few days and escort you to the capital. If you go to the capital, your life will be in danger."

"My situation is not very good now." A sly smile appeared on the corner of Zhao Yufan's mouth, and his voice became colder: "Unfortunately, I don't die so easily."

"Is there anything you can do?" Hong Ling asked.

Zhao Yufan shook his head, threw away the last bamboo leaf in his hand, and said indifferently, "No hurry." Seeing that Zhao Yufan didn't show any worry, the two women were surprised, but they didn't ask too much, since they couldn't help much anyway.

Seeing Zhao Yufan who was gradually leaving, the two women met each other and chased after him.Hong Ling was jogging while shouting: "We can let you leave." She meant to leave, leaving the Pill Gate.

Zhao Yufan stopped and stared at the two women, with a trace of bitterness on the corner of his mouth, "There are two seniors here, do you think I can leave?"

As soon as the words fell, an old voice suddenly floated in the bamboo forest: "Of course you can go, but there are requirements."

Hearing this, Zhao Yufan looked around in astonishment, and looked at the two women, as if asking them what was going on.The two women looked at him innocently, not understanding what happened.

Back to the place where the two old men were playing Go, the three of Zhao Yufan stood there awkwardly, their eyes kept moving from the two old men, as if they wanted to see something special.

After playing a game of chess, one of the old men said: "You can go, but you have to fill the board with chess pieces, and there must be as many black and white chess pieces.

With his lips pursed, Zhao Yufan looked at the two old men in astonishment, feeling that the matter was too simple. Could it be that the two old men were letting him go on purpose?Maybe it's possible, anyway, he also served tea and water for the two old people for more than ten days.

While he was thinking, the two old men had already drifted away.

The two women were shocked for a moment before they realized it. Seeing Zhao Yufan lowered his head in thought, Hong Ling kicked him and angrily said, "Hurry up, what are you thinking?"

Touching his buttocks, Zhao Yufan gave Hong Ling a hard look, and muttered, "You're a pretty girl, why isn't she gentle at all." As he said this, he had already walked to the chessboard, and stretched out his hand carelessly towards the chessboard. A chess jar full of white chess pieces.

He put his hand into the chess jar chicly, with a faint smile on his face, he clamped a white chess piece between his two fingers, with a flick of his wrist, he pressed his two fingers on the center of the chessboard accurately.

The moment Zhao Yufan pressed his finger on the chessboard, his originally calm and smiling face suddenly became extremely ugly, with slightly reddened skin and constricted pupils.

Hong Ling's expression froze, she opened her small mouth with a look of horror, obviously caught off guard.

Yurou was relatively calm, but there was also a flash of surprise in her eyes.

There was silence near the bamboo forest, and a few bamboo leaves fell on the chessboard, covering where Zhao Yufan's fingers landed, as if covering his embarrassing expression.

The stiff expression eased a little, Zhao Yufan looked solemnly in the direction of the bamboo house, his eyes moved down slightly, and landed on the chess pot again.

Hong Ling and Yurou looked at each other, their eyebrows frowned slightly, they could see clearly just now that Zhao Yufan didn't have a chess piece between his fingers, that is to say...he didn't clamp the chess piece just now.

If he couldn't hold the chess piece, it must not be Zhao Yufan's mistake, but a problem with the chess piece.
