Chapter 63: Huarong Dao
"You two might as well sit down and talk calmly, there is no knot in your heart that cannot be untied. ”
The person who said this sentence seemed to have an inclusive bearing in his tone, and he himself was such an elegant and graceful man, with a luxurious temperament, a tall figure, and every move, he had a heroic spirit of a warrior, not powerful but angry, extraordinary.
Such a man of good temperament walked down the stairs so calmly, followed by a tall and mighty man and a figure dressed as a Confucian scholar with a beard like a strategist.
I saw that the man in the fancy dress looked at Zichen carefully, and Zichen also stared at him with interest for a long time.
Immediately, the man in the fancy dress smiled slightly, turned around and saluted Guan Xiaoye, and said:
"Brother Guan, as the saying goes, all brothers in the four seas are also brothers. I saw that it was just a misunderstanding, if you are willing to sell me a thin noodle for Dugu Xin, sit down and talk, shake hands and make peace, wouldn't it be a beautiful thing?"
Guan Xiaoye hurriedly clenched his fists and replied, saying:
"Brother Dugu's face, I don't have a reason to disobey the little master. Since Brother Dugu has come forward, as long as that guy, oh, that Brother Ziwei is willing to bow his head and apologize to me, this matter will be stopped, what do you think?"
The man in Chinese clothes, who called himself Dugu Xin, felt that such a disposition was acceptable, so he turned his head and looked at Zichen with a smile, as if asking Zichen what he wanted.
Originally, as long as this matter was borrowed from the slope to get off the donkey, and Ziwei first bowed his head and apologized, he could turn things around, and it seemed that he could get through it safely. And several classmates seemed to believe what Dugu Xin said, and their faces suddenly began to show a little joy, once they thought that things had taken a turn for the better, they no longer had the momentum of seeing death as home.
Zichen secretly screamed badly, one blow at a time, then decline, and three exhaustions.
The appearance of Dugu Xin first disintegrated Zichen's momentum, and if it continued like this, they would lead them away.
Zichen knows very well that if the momentum is not there, the chips that threaten the enemy will be greatly reduced, this group of people is clearly a nest of snakes and rats, and the man who calls himself Dugu Xin, although he has always seen him smiling and welcoming people, but this person's eyes are deep and unfathomable, and even Zichen is a little afraid of such a character.
As long as these few people haven't walked out of the Yihong Pavilion safely, then this game has not yet been decided!
Zichen glanced down at Ziwei, only to see that he frowned and looked unwilling. Ziwei's temperament is best known to him, kicking injustices, punching hateful people, and letting him bow his head to the other party first to apologize, which is more difficult than death.
Immediately, Zichen stepped forward, saluted, and responded:
"Zichen thank you Brother Dugu for speaking up, but this Guan Xiaoye is too reckless and impulsive, and beat several of my classmates and friends all over the body, if Guan Xiaoye can first bow his head to a few of my classmates and friends to apologize, I and other people who are studying, courtesy, and naturally know how to take care of the etiquette. ”
Zichen's words immediately aroused the anger of Naguan Xiaoye, if it weren't for Dugu Xin's front, he would have had a seizure a long time ago, and rushed over to clean up Zichen. Now I can only stamp my feet and stare at him angrily, and I can only snort coldly for a long time, showing my dissatisfaction.
Guan Xiaoye's anger instantly made the atmosphere in the hall tense again.
And several classmates suddenly understood that if they couldn't let this group of people let them go convincingly, then this matter would not be so lightly passed.
Several people immediately looked at Zichen, and when they saw Zichen nodding slightly to them, they all chose to trust Zichen, because they knew that Zichen would definitely be able to take them out safely!
"Oh?!"
Dugu Xin chuckled, and greatly appreciated the scholar in front of him, Fang Cai's plan to delay the army was just to let the group of students unload their defenses and have a glimmer of hope for survival, so that they would no longer have the idea of committing suicide.
As the saying goes, the mourning soldiers will win, only when they have extinguished their grief and death, and have a trace of greed for life, will they carry out the orders given by those who control their life and death without any resistance.
Seeing that the momentum of that group of students would be extinguished, did he never think that the scholar had already seen through it, regrouped, and brought the momentum back to life, and let his classmates recognize the facts, so that they could reach the situation of hatred and hatred?
What an interesting scholar!
"It seems that it is difficult to reach a consensus. Or, in this way, since this place is a place to play games, then you might as well choose a game as a gambling game, if anyone loses, they will apologize to the winning side first, you think, how about it?"
In ancient times, whether it was the palace or the people, there would be some puzzle games circulating in the meantime, in order to win the public's enjoyment, because these games were appreciated by the common people, and even won the public opinion, often played with leisure time, and enjoyed with others, and endured.
For example, leaf opera, Wumu opera, playing chess, Shuanglu, Jiulianhuan, Huarong Dao, etc., as long as it is a place for fun, there will be this game to help Yaxing.
Guan Xiaoye's biggest ability is that he has a lot of experience in the game, and he is full of confidence, and he has the chance to win. Hearing this, he was overjoyed and hurriedly said:
"Just do what Brother Dugu said, if anyone loses, he will kneel down and bow his head to apologize to the other party!"
Guan Xiaoye's attitude is arrogant, it is too troublesome to apologize to each other, what he wants is that the kid kneels at his feet and bows his head to apologize to himself, and wants him Guan Xiaoye to be apologized by others, don't even think about it!
"And what does this little brother think?"
Dugu Xin asked Zichen with a smile, with a peaceful face, which made people feel a little like a spring breeze in the bath.
Zichen glanced at Ziwei and several classmates, and everyone nodded in agreement. Seeing this, Zichen had to take one step at a time.
"It's okay, just according to Brother Dugu's suggestion, as for which game to choose, let Guan Xiaoye choose. ”
Giving up seemingly favorable conditions to the other party is just to prevent the other party from regretting the rematch after the winner is decided.
"Listening to the tone of the little brother, it seems that he has a different experience in the way of play!"
Dugu Xin asked tentatively in an appreciative tone.
Zichen was frank at this time, shook his head, and said:
"It's just an occasional dabbling, and I can't talk about any experience. ”
Guan Xiaoye saw that Dugu Xin seemed to be quite taboo about the little white-faced scholar, so he thought about taking this opportunity to kill the other party's sharpness, regardless of whether the little white-faced person really had anything to do with the Bo Opera party, when he met him, Guan Xiaoye, the true god, had to get out of the way.
"In that case, let's play Huarong Dao, do you know the rules? It's very simple, the fastest speed, the least number of steps, win, how, dare to compare?"
The corners of Guan Xiaoye's mouth curled up, triumphant. Under this world, there are only a handful of people who can unlock Huarong Dao, and more importantly, more than eighty percent of these countable people are 100 steps out of Huarong Dao, and Guan Xiaoye's personal master, but this world is unique in the world, it only took eighty-two steps to walk out of Huarong Dao!
In this world, there is no one who can walk out of Huarong Dao one step less than him, they are doomed!
Zichen frowned slightly, Huarong Dao He had also played, and he had also spent some effort to walk out of Huarong Dao. But looking at the look of the young master Guan with a winning face, Zichen secretly thought to himself, things may not be as simple as imagined.
The teacher once told himself that now someone has only taken eighty-two steps to solve Huarong Dao, but unfortunately he has never had the opportunity to get the map for reference, and this person who walked out of Huarong Dao with the least number one step is known as the smartest person in the world.
Could it be that where did this Guan Xiaoye see that spectrum and know the method of walking out of Huarong Dao with the least number of steps?
Zichen not only pondered for a moment, but was a little stunned.
That Guan Xiaoye looked at Zichen's daze appearance, and suddenly said that this kid can't even solve Huarong Dao, there is no opponent worth fighting, he just feels bored and boring!
took out a map solution from his arms, threw it directly to Zichen, and said:
"Boy, here is a map of Huarong Dao solution, this cup of tea, if you can learn a few tricks, you may have a few chances of winning, don't say that I Guan Xiaoye bullied you, I will give you a chance, haha!"
What Guan Xiaoye threw to Zichen was the atlas of the eighty-two steps out of Huarong Dao, this atlas can be said to be the only one in the world who has it, and the solution on the map is exquisite, so that people in this road will be difficult to release when they see it.
Guan Xiaoye was obsessed with this atlas day and night, forgetting to sleep and food, and it took him a month to remember the solution steps of the atlas one by one, and use it freely.
Guan Xiaoye was conceited, because he didn't believe that someone could understand the mysteries in the atlas in the time of a cup of tea, and he didn't believe that this scholar could reproduce the eighty-two steps of the solution at a speed that was more skilled than himself.
Take 10,000 steps back, this scholar is really a genius, but he will learn this solution with a cup of tea, if it is the same as Guan Xiaoye's solution, then it is not picking up people's teeth and wisdom, and being looked down upon.
No matter how you think about it, this competition is beneficial to you, so Guan Xiaoye looked unhurried, so that people set up the ring in the main hall and prepare Huarong Dao.
As long as the game goes smoothly, the outcome is already a certainty!
Zichen was a little surprised, the map that Guan Xiaoye gave himself would actually be an eighty-two-step solution, this map that he wanted to see but couldn't get, it didn't take any effort to get it.
This atlas is only about ten pages at most, and it doesn't take a cup of tea, Zichen has already finished reading it, I really didn't expect that this person's solution is really breathtaking, and it's amazing.
Since this atlas has been on Guan Xiaoye, it can be seen that he himself has already been familiar with this method, no wonder he looks like he is winning, it seems that this competition, not so much Zichen's opponent is Guan Xiaoye, it is better to say that his opponent is the master who is known as the smartest person in the world.
Zichen sighed slightly, and his intuition told him that this would be a vicious battle, but no matter what, he had to fight, and he could only win, not lose!
Before it was time for a cup of tea, Zichen returned the atlas to Master Guan with a dull face, and said:
"Since it is faster and the least number of steps, for the sake of fairness, you and I each have two people who have calculated by heart, respectively as each other and their own counting, only allowed to count silently in their hearts, and write the results on paper respectively after the game, the two are compared, if the count is the same, the result can be considered fair, what does Guan Xiaoye think?"
Guan Xiaoye saw that Zichen actually disdained this map, didn't he even see that this was the map of the eighty-two-step solution?
"Yes, as you wish. Come on, let the people go first. ”
Guan Xiaoye gave an order, and his subordinates untied the ropes of those students one after another and set them free.
Seeing that they were all untied, Zichen also felt a little relieved, and said with a word:
"Zimo, Zichu, you have the best mental arithmetic, come and help us count!"
As Zichen said, Zimo and Zichu are the best people in arithmetic among the several people, and they are indeed the best people to be responsible for counting.
When Zimo and Zichu heard this, they glanced at each other, and immediately felt that they were in danger, and they never dared to live up to Zichen's trust, so they both cheered up and came to the gaming table and sat cross-legged.
And there is no shortage of such talents among Guan Xiaoye's subordinates, and he chose two pleasing ones and sat down.
Zichen and Guan Xiaoye made a gesture of invitation to each other and sat down.
At this time, as soon as the small gong sounds, the competition will officially begin.
With a bang, under Duguxin's ruling, the competition officially began.
Guan Xiaoye is familiar with the road, whether it is the five tiger generals or the four soldiers in Huarong Dao, under his hands, it is like a horse watching the flowers, according to his specific route, under the plucking of Guan Xiaoye's fingers, it is running quickly on various tracks.
In contrast, Zichen's path is not in a hurry, and has always maintained a balanced speed, but his eyes are not like Guan Xiaoye, with his own hands, he seems to have entered a unique realm, there is no competition in it, there is no winning or losing, only continuous attempts and deductions.
After seeing the 82 unique solutions, Zichen learned a lot from them, and he would learn from these solutions, and he would not follow them step by step, but turn them into his own use. Then he has his own unique way of thinking, refining and integrating his own solutions.
Zichen only felt that the process of seeking a solution to the problem made him extremely happy, so that his brain was always in an active and excited state, his hand was not in a hurry to move, but the number of steps in his mind had already exceeded hundreds of steps, what he was thinking about now was not how to win Guan Xiaoye, but how to use a more subtle method to solve this problem.
Guan Xiaoye looked at Zichen's unhurried speed, and he was proud in his heart, and he could see the weird smile on Zichen's face that seemed to be like a demon, and the speed of Zichen's fingers was getting faster and faster.
In a trance, I almost made a mistake in the number of steps, and I couldn't help but slow down a few beats, worried that the steps would be disrupted. If you are too anxious, if you make a mistake and have to go back and waste the number of steps, then it is impossible to come up with an eighty-two step solution.
Time passed little by little, everyone was watching the progress of the competition, the field was silent, full of the sound of wooden cards colliding, fast, rhythmic and crisp, the atmosphere of the competition to the extreme.
With the sound of the gong, Zichen and Guan Xiaoye sent Cao Cao out of Huarong Dao at almost the same speed.
When the wooden plaque representing Cao Cao came out of the unique gap, the audience couldn't cheer excitedly, this was really a rare competition.
Since the speed is about the same, the next thing that will determine the outcome is only the number of steps.
In the anticipation of everyone, the person in charge of counting wrote down the number of steps on a piece of paper and handed over a ruling letter.
Dugu Xin opened the results of the two of them in front of everyone.
Eighty-two to ...... Eighty-one?!Both groups of counts are exactly the same, which shows that this competition is fair in counting!
That Guan Xiaoye is eighty-two steps, and that Zichen is only one step less than that Guan Xiaoye, it is this crucial step that determines the victory or defeat!
"Oh my God, it's incredible!"
There are constantly such feelings in the crowd, people who like to play Huarong Dao know that people who can walk out of Huarong Dao in eighty-two steps are already extremely smart people, and now, there are still people who only need eighty-one steps to walk out of Huarong Dao, it seems, it is really incredible!
"Haha, it seems that the title of the smartest person in the world has to be given to this little brother!"
"yes, it really opened my eyes!"
"It's really amazing"
......
All kinds of beautiful words came one after another, and Guan Xiaoye looked at Zichen with a shocked expression, Zichen had a happy expression, as if he was coming out of the mysterious door, his face was flushed, and he was a little cute and charming.
"Impossible, how could someone walk out of Huarong Dao one step less than him?
Guan Xiaoye glanced at Dugu Xin in disbelief, but Dugu Xin stared at Cao Cao, who had already walked out of Huarong Dao, and with Guan Xiaoye's questioning voice, the expression on his face became more and more cold.
Dugu Xin really saw it all the way, this scholar did only take eighty-one steps to unlock Huarong Dao!
"Little brother is really eye-opening, I don't know who to learn from, you can get this mysterious solution, it's really breathtaking!"
Dugu Xin pretended to ask with a praising expression, he didn't believe that a boy who was still a minor actually had such a mysterious way to unravel Huarong Dao, judging from his casual expression at the beginning, he thought that he had this trick before, and there must be a master behind him.
Zichen smiled and said heartily:
"How can there be any teachers to teach, but when the road meets a child playing Huarong Dao, he got this wonderful method and then revealed it to me, it's just a fluke, Guan Xiaoye agreed!"
Zichen's words seem unintentional, but they are actually intentional.
And when Dugu Xin heard this, he grabbed the mutton fat jade wrench on his thumb, and the shape of the finger bones could be vaguely seen in his clenched fist, although the smile on his face did not change, but his eyes clearly revealed a burst of cold killing intent.
What this scholar means is that a person who solves Huarong Dao in eighty-two steps is actually not as good as a child with a total horn?
Although Zichen was smiling, he also saw the strangeness of this Dugu Xin, it seems that he guessed correctly, the person who created this eighty-two unique solutions is really this Dugu Xin, even Zichen has to admit that he is a terrifying and unfathomable opponent!
Zichen hurriedly stood up, saluted the cheering people around him, and said:
"Zichen won this competition by luck, so please ask Guan Xiaoye to bow his head and apologize to me and other classmates and friends according to the previous agreement!"
Zichen is also kind, and he didn't ask Guan Xiaoye to ask for it, so he made people kneel down and kowtow to apologize. This is his principle of life, he will not take the initiative to humiliate others, but he will not allow others to humiliate himself, his companions, or the people he cares about.
Suddenly, the people around urged Guan Xiaoye to bow his head and apologize to the group of students. How can Guan Xiaoye bow his head and apologize, but before the competition, he said it first, how can he talk back in public.
glanced at Dugu Xin, but saw the cold on his face, and felt frightened. The more everyone urged, the more unwilling Guan Xiaoye became, and glanced around, but saw the culprit of the matter, the girl who accompanied the wine, was standing in the crowd not far away, and immediately became angry, rushed over, and dragged the girl out.
"It's all caused by you slut, Master Guan will kill you today!"
After speaking, Guan Xiaoye's palm rose, and he wanted to slap the girl......
As the woman shouted in dispossession, Zichen, who was closest to her, immediately ran over, protected the girl behind her, and dodged the downward swing of the young master.
Zichen is a scholar, and has no martial arts foundation, although he protected the girl slowly, but he was exposed, although the palm did not hit him in the face, but it also hit him, and he threw off the jade pendant on his waist, and after the jade pendant flew out, it smashed on the ground and broke into several petals.
That Guan Xiaoye's eyes suddenly turned red, and when he saw that the white-faced scholar had sent him to the door, how could he spare it, and with a hard kick in the stomach, he kicked Zichen five steps away, fell to his knees, and collapsed on the ground as if he had fainted......
"Fuck off, don't hurt him!"
Behind him, Ziwei roared and rushed over, and also kicked Guan Xiaoye, Guan Xiaoye's body flew up like an arrow off the string, but in the end, he was firmly caught in his arms by the Confucian who was dressed as a schemist.
said that it was too late, and then it was too fast, but I saw that the tall and burly man also suddenly made a move to stop Ziwei's way, and Ziwei thought of Zichen's comfort, roared angrily, 'Get out', and swung his fist at the burly man......
A fierce battle seems to be about to break out!
