Chapter 85: Chess is like life

The air is filled with an elegant fragrance of tea, leisurely and long, refreshing!

Old man Mu threw the ball into the teapot and poured it full of tea himself, under the soaking of boiling water, the ball expanded at a speed visible to the naked eye, and finally occupied a quarter of the teapot, the boiling water was crimson, and the curling words floated out of the pot, and the aroma was overflowing.

"This is a black tea that has been cellared for a hundred years, and it is the best of tea. Old Man Mu smelled the fragrance of tea, half-squinted his eyes, and said with an intoxicated face.

Li Wenhao asked: "If measured by money, how much is it worth?" Li Wenhao planned to buy more after he went back, and then give it to the old man to win the favor of the old man.

As a tea lover, the most hated thing for the old man Mu is the smell of copper, and when he heard this, his face immediately showed a trace of displeasure, but in order to send Li Wenhao away, the old man said: "It's worth millions, and it has no price, maybe this is already a unique product." The old man put the box away like a treasure.

Li Wenhao couldn't help smacking his tongue, before coming, he made special preparations, knowing that the old man Mu likes to drink tea, and has a deep study of the tea ceremony, many high-quality teas can't get into the eyes of the old man, so he spent a lot of money to buy the best Longjing before the rain.

Unexpectedly, the old man was not interested in the so-called dragon well before the rain, but was amazed by the black tea brought by Ling Tian.

"Li family boy, I know the purpose of your coming here, my granddaughter is already famous, so don't be delusional. Old Man Mu said lightly. "Someone, send off!"

Li Wenhao glared at Ling Tian fiercely and left with an old face.

Ling Tian looked at Li Wenhao's back, the corners of his mouth curled up with a trace of disdain.

"Ling Tian, you have made a lot of noise recently, even the people of the four great families dare to move, but you have a good grasp of proportion, and you have taught them a small lesson, but you have not angered them, you have done a good job. Old Man Mu tasted the best black tea, and his smiling eyes became a slit.

"Ren Xingfeng, that old fox is not simple, and the person he brought out is also not simple. The old man continued. "Ten years ago, Ren Xingfeng, that old fox, played a game of chess with me, and he hasn't finished playing until now, why don't you play a game with me?"

Ling Tian turned his head to look at the chessboard, it was a game of dead chess, and within three moves, the white piece was completely eaten.

"Okay!" Ling Tian nodded in agreement for Old Man Bo's pleasure.

The old man sat in front of the chessboard with a teacup and said to Ling Tian, "I hold the sunspot." ”

Ling Tian sat opposite the old man and looked at it carefully, the form was even more severe than he thought.

"This is already a dead game, Ren Xingfeng knew that he would lose, so he chose to quit the chess, I don't know if you can think of a way to turn defeat into victory?" asked the old man with a smile.

"I'll give it a try. Ling Tian stared at the chessboard, deducing in his mind, trying to find out the flaws of the other party.

Go is the most complex game in the world, with a history of more than 4,000 years. It was once said that Go is the universe, full of countless variables.

"Chess is like life, full of countless variables, one moment you may be in a desperate situation, but the next moment, you may have turned defeat into victory. Old Man Mu said lightly, picked up a sunspot and took a step first, directly sealing Ling Tian's last way out.

Ling Tian, who continued to deduce in his mind, stared at the chessboard with his eyes, and gradually, Ling Tian realized that what he saw was not a chessboard, but an unpredictable world...... Here, Ling Tian saw the shadow of murderous aura, forbearance, layout, art of war, and even formation......

Half an hour passed, and Ling Tian still didn't make a move, Old Man Mu waited patiently.

Suddenly, Ling Tian reached out to take Bai Zi, quickly and decisively dropped the piece, and then said to Old Man Mu: "You are right, chess is like life, full of variables. For example, I was in a desperate situation just now, but now I have turned defeat into victory. ”

Old Man Mu was very surprised, he looked down at the chessboard, and couldn't help but gasp, the position of the chess pieces that Ling Tian fell was very clever, not only skillfully defusing his attack, but also activating the previous layout, as long as Ling Tian was falling, Ling Tian would turn defeat into victory.

"Haha, yes, the people selected by Ren Xingfeng are really the elite of the elite, I thought you were a big soldier, but I didn't expect that you still have such a high level of wisdom. Old Man Mu exclaimed.

Mu Qingcheng looked at Ling Tian in surprise, just like the old man, she just thought that Ling Tian was a martial artist, but she didn't expect to be able to play dead chess and turn defeat into victory. If the opponent was someone else, Mu Tingcheng wouldn't feel anything, but the opponent was her grandfather.

You must know that Old Man Mu is not in business, he has been studying classical doctrines all his life, and he is considered a wise person.

"Grandpa, through this game of chess, I have learned a lot of things. Ling Tian found that his state of mind had improved a lot, he knew that this was deliberately arranged by the old man, and his heart was full of gratitude.

Old Man Mu laughed and said, "Just be kind to my granddaughter in the future, by the way, when do you plan to give me a great-grandson." ”

Mu Qingcheng's face turned red, and he said shyly: "Grandpa!"

"Haha, my baby granddaughter is shy. Old Man Mu said with a smile. "Ling Tian, I gave you Mingzhu, study it carefully after you go back, I believe that with your wisdom, you can definitely find the answer. ”

As for the Mingzhu, there was no record in the jade slip, but the news he got from the old man's mouth, coupled with Ling Tian's induction just now, Ling Tian 100% believed that the Mingzhu contained a pure fire essence, and perhaps the fire of heaven and earth could be extracted from it, which could be used to refine pills, spirit runes, and magic weapons.

For cultivators, the Heaven and Earth Alien Fire is extremely precious, and the effect of refining is far beyond the Dantian Fire that cultivators possess.

"Grandpa, is the Mingyan Beast a legendary thing, or is it real, what did you find on the altar?" Ling Tian asked.

The old man smiled slightly and said: "It doesn't matter whether it exists in legends or in reality, the important thing is that there are many mysterious existences in this world, you need to solve them step by step, perhaps, you can become a legendary existence." ”

Originally, Ling Tian admired the old man very much, but now after listening to the old man's words, he admired it even more. Ling Tian believed that the old man must know a lot of cultivation things, but why didn't he say it? This made Ling Tian puzzled.

After eating a reunion dinner, Ling Tian and Mu Chengcheng left.

After Ling Tian left, Old Man Mu stood at the door, looking at the car in the distance, and muttered to himself: "Child, if Ren Xingfeng guessed correctly, you have now obtained the inheritance of the dragon vein, maybe you can regain the glory of a thousand years ago...... What I've discovered over the years is fragmented and has no real value, and even if I say it, it won't help you, but will mislead you, so it's better for you to keep exploring it yourself. ”
