He was a demon boy in the eyes of the villagers. He was tied to a pyre and burned alive.
Before he died, he pointed to the sky and said: "At midnight tonight, the rain will come from the southeast."
The heavy rain came in response. When everyone knelt down in fear, he saw a dark star falling from the depths of the rain curtain. For sixteen years, no one believed that he could see the "road": there were roads between the stars, grids between heaven and earth, southeast, northwest, and the eight gates of life and death, all clearly visible to him.
After being expelled from the village, he met Huangdi, the leader of the world. Someone asked him why he won, and he replied: "Heaven and earth are the chessboard, and everything is the chess piece." Overnight, he transformed from a prisoner to a national warrior, using Qimen Dunjia to set up formations, defeat the enemy, and conquer the world. Chiyou personally led eighty-one soldiers to suppress the situation, and the great wizard of Jiuli sacrificed ten thousand animals to heaven - and he wanted to bet on a thousand years of peace with one person's life.
What he wants to win is not just a battle at Zhuolu.
What he wants to win is that after four thousand years, there will no longer be a need for the word "demon boy" in this world.
A young man who defies fate and changes his destiny, a chess game that spans four thousand years. Turn the page and you won't be able to put it down.
