The First Volume: Eight Desolate Martial Veins Chapter 12: Urban Rumors
The moment the old man threw his son to admit defeat, some of the sunspots on the chessboard turned into black smoke and dissipated, and the disappeared chess pieces all joined the chess game from after Tianyuan, and some onlookers had already taken out their mobile phones to shoot, and the scene of sunspots appearing and disappearing out of thin air was completely filmed.
"Thank you seniors for teaching me, this game, the juniors will never forget! The seniors are unwilling to show up, please accept the thanks!" the old man said, bowed to the chessboard, his face was full of respect, and there was no anger in the field.
After this game, the old man until he was far from the chess strength of the senior, it is not an exaggeration to say that it is a heaven and an earth, and it is a great honor to be able to play against such a strong player, even if he loses.
"How did Bai Zi lose? Why can't I understand it a little? It's obviously Bai Zi's absolute advantage, why did I go to the toilet and come back like this?"
"Don't say you can't understand it, I guess no one here can understand this game, every hand since the sunspot entered Tianyuan is useless at the moment of the chess game, but it was only later that I found that every piece of the sunspot arrangement is on the dead hole after dozens of hands of the white son, and the amount of calculation required for this is unmatched by the computer! Where is this chess that people can play? This old brother is lucky, I'm afraid that he will meet an unborn chess fairy!"
The old man looked around at the audience, muttered for a moment, and then whispered a few words to the bodyguard beside him.
"Ladies and gentlemen, I can tell you everything that happened here today, but I hope that a few friends who have taken pictures with their mobile phones can sell me the mobile phones in their hands, one mobile phone is 100,000 yuan!" The old man sighed heavily, and a departing bodyguard came over with a suitcase, which was full of 100 yuan bills when he opened it.
A mobile phone of 100,000 yuan, and soon three or four passers-by handed over their mobile phones, got 100,000 yuan as they wished, and left the scene in a hurry.
"Hmph, it's great to be rich, I still don't hand it over, what can he do to me?" a young man with little experience gambled and muttered to himself at the back of the crowd.
"Young man, I advise you to take the money, the old man can take out such a large sum of money in such a short period of time for a small thing, his family background is so strong, I am afraid it is beyond your expectations, if you are angry at this time, do you think that with the old man's attention to this matter, it is possible for you to leave with the video? When the time comes, if you can't get 100,000 yuan, maybe it will affect your family! Good things turn into bad things, and the gains outweigh the losses!" A kind-hearted old man next to him admonished, the young man thought about it, and finally thanked the old man, and also called his mobile phone......
"Master, it's been confirmed, and it's all handed in. The bodyguard told the old man the result, and the money in the box was just gone.
The young man in the crowd secretly breathed a sigh of relief when he saw this: the other party even prepared the amount just right, and obviously already secretly knew the number of mobile phones, if I didn't hand it over, it was estimated that something would really happen, fortunately.
The old man was very satisfied with the result and walked in the direction of the car with his bodyguard.
said that Zhao Feng had withdrawn from the state of sitting and meditating at this time, and he also saw the scene of everyone exchanging money with their mobile phones.
"This old man is quite sensible, knowing that the Go master who doesn't come forward doesn't like to be exposed to the public eye, so he thought of this trick, it's really rich, but it's a pity that I was too fascinated just now and didn't send it down with my mobile phone, it's a pity!" Bai Ze couldn't help but sigh.
However, even though the video taken by passers-by was recycled, it couldn't stop the crowd, and today's incident should still be spread. Zhao Feng said with some anger that he had exhausted ninety percent of his strength just now in order to resist the influence of the bamboo tube, but because of this, he "glimpsed" the scene of the black chess pieces flying out of the bamboo tube.
"That's right, but even if a hundred people tell an outsider what they saw today, it's hard to make the other party believe it, if it's you, if you don't see it with your own eyes, I'm afraid you won't believe it...... Today's events will become an unverifiable urban anecdote, and as long as there is no definite evidence, it is just an anecdote. Bai Ze smiled and correctly interpreted the old man's intentions.
At this moment, the old man went and returned, and actually stopped at Bai Ze's stall!
The old man actually changed his mind at the moment when he was about to get on the bus, and today's experience made him firmly believe that the masters were all in the people, and anyone he underestimated could be a master with real talent and learning, so he returned to Bai Ze's stall.
The old man and Bai Ze looked at each other for a few seconds, and just as the old man was about to speak, Bai Ze preemptively said: "I can't help you, you can go." ”
The old man was stunned for a moment, was silent for a moment, glanced at the line of words on the red carpet, and then said with a wry smile: "It seems that I am not the destined person that Your Excellency is waiting for." ”
"Fate is such a thing, as long as you open your mouth, it is originally no fate, and therefore there is fate, I am not picking customers, but I really can't help you, give you a free advice, the next half a month, you should eat and drink, don't leave regrets. Bai Ze waved his hand, a piece of advice, it can be regarded as benevolent and righteous.
The old man froze, his originally tough body collapsed slightly in an instant, and he beckoned to the bodyguard holding the cane beside him with some weakness and took the cane.
"It seems that I am really blinded...... The two little masters, Lao Yu apologized for the previous rudeness, and hoped to invite the two little masters to have a table of tea, and they also hoped to appreciate their faces. The old man bowed down again, and his attitude was very sincere.
"Seeing that you are playing chess for half a day, you are also a little hungry, so I will give you this opportunity. Bai Ze thought about it, immediately closed the stall, and followed the old man into the car with Zhao Feng......
......
In the car, Zhao Feng was a little restless, it was the first time he had taken such a luxurious car, the old man was obviously to invite Bai Ze, and he also came along, so he inevitably looked uncomfortable.
"Little master, what you just meant was that you said that something would happen within half a month, so you don't know ......," the old man asked tentatively.
"Don't test me, your life is a mixed bag, all in my eyes, I don't like to judge other people's lives, but your life is destined to end in half a month, but you can rest assured that you will not pass away because of an accident, you can relax and enjoy the remaining half a month of life." Bai Ze spoke directly, and the old man didn't look too lost.
"The little master even knows the name of the old man, so he must also know the situation of the Linghu family...... In fact, the old man knows that his time is short, and he just wants to solve some hidden dangers within the family before he dies, and the old man is waiting for an heir to return, but whether he can come back is still unknown......" The old man Ling Fox Bow sighed, and his heart had already seen through life and death.
"Seven famous families, no wonder you are so troubled...... Zhao Feng, you shouldn't know what the Seven Famous Families are, right?" Bai Ze smiled, but did not answer Ling Hugong directly, and instead accosted Zhao Feng beside him.
"A famous family with a long history?" Zhao Feng really didn't know, and could only understand it literally.
Although this statement is not wrong, it is obviously far from enough, and I don't know when it started, the major families in China, with financial resources as the standard, divided into four levels, from bottom to top, respectively, the new family, the small family, the big family and the famous family, as the name suggests, the new family is the new potential family, although it is the end of the rank, but at least it must be the economic and financial resources of each city to rank first in the local area to be eligible to be listed. ”
"Small clan refers to the family with the highest economic strength of private enterprises in various provinces. ”
"The big family is the top ten domestic private enterprises in each year, but even if it is a big family, its heritage can't compete with the seven famous families, and this old man is one of the seven famous families, the head of the Xiamen Linghu family. ”
However, in the final analysis, these four levels are only listed by these families themselves, and their popularity among the people is not high, especially among famous families, and their popularity is even inferior to those small and big clans. After Bai Ze explained, he just arrived at the Xianlaiju Teahouse.
Ling Hugong led Bai Ze and Zhao Feng to the No. 3 VIP room on the third floor, and after a while, all kinds of high-end desserts and tea filled the table of the Eight Immortals, and the surrounding antique environment had a unique artistic conception.
"The seven famous families all take 'self-discipline' as the first rule, pursue low-key behavior, treat people sincerely, and will never let the family foundation be buried in the hands of arrogant, arrogant and conceited children! Linghu Gong lamented that he had even foreseen the situation in which the Linghu family would be divided by his heirs after his death.
"Self-discipline, how easy is it to talk about? Everyone is not willing to be the protagonist of their own life, and the wealthy family who was born gave them capital, how can they be willing to use their life as a foil for others?"
"This world of flowers is full of pretentious laymen, but as everyone knows, those pretentious people are often the most ordinary people in the world. Bai Ze's expression was indifferent, and he said something that sounded unfathomable, and Zhao Feng didn't dare to say a word on the side.
"Alas...... Maybe as the little master said, it's the old man who is too pretentious......" Ling Hugong smiled bitterly, thinking that Bai Ze's words meant that he took himself too seriously.
"Millions of swords on credit, Dao life and death, if there is a mistake, you won't take a penny!"
At this moment, a clear shouting sound came from the street under the teahouse, which attracted Zhao Feng's attention.
"Hehe, that's kind of interesting...... The old man, that man, is here for you. Bai Ze smiled, pointed to the hawker on the street downstairs, and said with certainty.
"At this time, it is indeed rare to meet a knife man on credit......" Ling Hugong looked downstairs at the name of the seller, the other party was thirty or forty years old, with shoulder-length hair and beard, wearing leopard skin animal clothes, a bronze bodybuilder, like a mountain savage who had lived outside the world for a long time, he was holding a half-meter-long wooden box in his hand, and he didn't know what was inside.
"What is a knife man on credit?" Zhao Feng suddenly asked.
"Decades ago, a group of people gave daily necessities to the people on credit for free, and left a prophecy, only to come true on the day and later, and then come back to collect fees from the people on credit, which is a bit like my peers. When Bai Ze explained, the person with the knife downstairs had already walked into the teahouse.
"In the past ten years, there have been few people who have taken credit for knives, and I don't know if the one downstairs is true or not. Linghu Gong asked Bai Ze for answers.
"Distinguish the true and false of the knife person, in fact, it is also simple, most of the orthodox credit knife people are prophesies about the increase in the price of folk goods, and will give an approximate deadline, they often will not answer the prophecy you want to know, will only prophecy according to their own meaning, if you meet the kind of credit knife person who enthusiastically answers the doubts in your heart, congratulations on meeting the impostor. ”
"As for the one downstairs, all I can say is that he has some strength. ”
As Bai Ze spoke, the man with the knife had already come to the third floor, pretending to be casual and walked into the No. 2 VIP room next door, exited after a minute, and then pushed open the door of the No. 3 VIP room.
