Quick Wear: The host is a jerk again and runs away

Chapter 493 News from Parents

The old man pointed at the chessboard and said, "Even if you only know a little bit about this game, you can see that the black pieces have surrounded the white pieces. There is only one piece missing, and it seems that this piece cannot change the outcome no matter where it is placed."

"What a coincidence that you hesitated when faced with a losing situation. This shows that deep down you were unwilling to admit defeat and felt that you had a chance of survival, but you just hadn't found a solution yet, so you didn't make a move but chose to let it go, leaving the game unfinished."

"Think carefully, does this correspond to your current predicament?"

Xue Yi's eyes lit up as if she had suddenly realized something. Yes, this white piece corresponds to her now, right? !

Death is approaching, and it seems that I have reached a desperate situation, with no way out.

Going forward seems to be a sure way to death and defeat, while retreating, although it can temporarily keep you away from the inevitable outcome of defeat, is time-limited.

"Thank you for your guidance, senior. I am grateful for your instruction." Xue Yi stood up and saluted the old man very respectfully.

After helping her up, the old man asked, "That fellow Di Chen said that I had ulterior motives. You and he are close friends. If that's the case, why did you play this game with me instead of just saying I'm a liar?"

Xue Yi shook her head and said with a smile: "There is one bad thing about this junior. He values ​​feelings too much."

"Although Di Chen told me that you are a bad person, my feeling tells me that you did not lie to me."

"So, it doesn't hurt to play with you for the next round, even if there's no winner."

The old man stroked his gray beard, his eyes full of admiration, "You, girl, really look like your mother."

As soon as these words came out, Xue Yi's smile froze on her face. She was a little dazed and a little excited. She was so excited that her breathing became rapid. "You...you know my mother?"

The old man nodded, "Of course."

"I met your mother in a place before. She and your father were trapped there and couldn't get out. So she asked me for help and said that if I could get out, I could take care of you."

"Last time we met, I said I came to you to give you the bracelet to repay a favor, but in fact, I was repaying the favor to your parents."

"If it weren't for them, I wouldn't have been able to get out of there. They helped me, so I have to help them."

"As an old man, I have always followed one word: righteousness."

Xue Yi suppressed her excitement and tried to calm herself down. Her parents were still alive and the old man had seen them before, so she also had the chance to see them!

She knelt down in front of the old man and kowtowed heavily. "May I ask where my parents are trapped? I have been separated from them since I was a child. I miss them very much, but I have been searching for them in the other world for many years and have not found any trace of them."

The old man sighed and said, "You naturally can't find that place, because it is not in this space."

"Your parents and I are both trapped in the realm of karma. Your parents are imprisoned in the seventh prison, and I am imprisoned in the sixth prison. We are only separated by a wall, so we can talk to each other occasionally. It can be considered as a companion."

Xue Yi's hands tightly grasped her dress, and she suddenly thought of something and asked, "Then is the causal blood river you asked me to go to located in this causal fate realm?"

The old man nodded with satisfaction, "Yes, that's right. I let you go not only to take Jiuquku and Shizhangsheng, but also for another purpose."

Xue Yi collapsed on the ground. For the first time, she felt that she was alive, completely alive.

Her parents and clan members have always been a hurdle in her heart that she cannot get over. As a leader, if she cannot protect her subordinates and her family, she is not worthy of being a leader.

Back then, the Ji family was destroyed overnight, her parents were displaced and disappeared without a trace, and Xue Yi didn't even know their names.

She searched for many years before she found two of her tribesmen. One, A Zi, had disappeared, and the other, Luo Fu, was now safe and sound in the Holy Maiden Temple.

She never saw the others again.

For so many years, she has been living for a breath of fresh air, and she firmly believes that one day she will find it.

When she was almost in despair, she found Ah Zi, saw her remaining soul, and learned that other members of the tribe were still alive, which gave her great motivation.

Later, she found Afu, who were all people who were close to her in the past.

One is Afu and the other is Azi, both are the heads of her palace.

No, she couldn't die, she had to survive and find her parents, or at least see them once.

She kowtowed to the old man repeatedly, tears welling up in her eyes. At this moment, she was no longer the proud Ji Xueyi, but a daughter who wanted to survive and see her parents. "Please give me some advice, senior. I want to survive, I want to find my parents, I want to rescue them! But Di Chen said these places are very dangerous. We have no chance of winning if we go in. We will be slaughtered like this white chess piece."

"Since you asked me to play this game of chess, you must have your own intentions. No matter what they are, I am willing to listen."

The old man sighed heavily, lifted her up, and made her look at him.

"Girl, life is like this game of chess. You find yourself at a dead end, but if you look more closely you will find that there is still a glimmer of hope.

You wait and see if this move I make can turn the tables."

He raised his hand and picked up the white piece that Xue Yi had just put down. His hand moved to three positions on the chessboard and finally landed on a place that Xue Yi had always ignored.

Her eyes widened, and all the pieces on the chessboard became clearer and clearer in front of her. The position where the white piece fell was in the place she had not thought about just now, because she subconsciously felt that there was no hope if it fell there. But now looking at the overall situation, just because this piece fell there, the black piece's original victory situation was instantly reversed, and they actually ended up in a draw!

It’s a draw…it’s a draw!

From a losing situation to a draw with just one move!

"Girl, sometimes people's vision is limited. You are in the game and naturally cannot see the situation around you clearly. But if you look at the game from an outsider's perspective, you will find that life is death and death is life."

"Life is death, death is life..." Xue Yi kept repeating this sentence, and the image of the dragon unconsciously appeared in her mind.

If she didn't go, she would surely die.

But if she went, no matter how dangerous it was inside, she would be fully prepared and give it a try. Who knows, she might be able to find a way out!

"Thank you, senior. I have learned a lot from you! I was feeling very depressed today and felt that I had reached a dead end and could not recover. With your guidance, I have regained my confidence and will definitely give it a try!"

The old man smiled, pointed at the thousand-layer bracelet she was wearing, and said meaningfully: "Girl, this bracelet has a magical use, so you must keep it well. Di Chen didn't let you go because he was worried about your safety, and secondly, the location reflected by this bracelet is related to the survival of the world."

"But as long as you choose the right people and use the right people, what Emperor Chen II is worried about will not happen."
