Zhou Rui couldn't help but turn his head when he heard the voice.

I saw a middle-aged man standing in front of him.

Dressed in white, it's not gorgeous, but it's unusually clean.

The face is white and spotless.

There is a different atmosphere all over the body.

Even Zhou Rui couldn't help but admire when he saw each other.

This middle-aged man is a little handsome.

Especially the other party, revealing a mature charm all over his body.

Such a charm is particularly attractive to some young beauties.

However, Zhou Rui lives in an era of entertainment explosion, what young handsome guy has never seen, and what charming uncle he doesn't know.

Although the middle-aged man was charming, Zhou Rui was not so surprised.

Zhou Rui heard the other party's question, and couldn't help arching his hand, "Zhou Rui, a person in the East China Sea, is indeed the first time to come", Zhou Rui nodded.

When the middle-aged man saw Zhou Rui's movements, he was very humble, and hurriedly returned the salute, "Xu Xingyou, a person in Xiaqiantang, has seen Brother Tai", the middle-aged man looks easy-going and impeccable.

"Wocao", hearing Xu Xingyou's three words, Zhou Ruihu's body couldn't help but shake, then shocked, then shook, and finally ······ Wilted.

"Oh, you are Mr. Xu, you are polite", Zhou Rui couldn't help arching his hand, in fact, Xu Xingyou at this time already had a reputation.

It's not so unusual to know him.

"Brother Tai is polite, I saw Brother Tai alone just now, so come up and disturb for a while, Brother Tai is not strange", Xu Xingyou waved his hand slightly, looking very indifferent.

Zhou Rui looked at Xu Xingyou and couldn't help but praise secretly.

No wonder he can be called a famous chess master in China, this kind of heart, many people can't do it.

Regarding Xu Xingyou's future, Zhou Rui also knows a little about it.

After Xu Xingyou became famous, like the famous players of the past dynasties, he began to travel to the capital, and a group of idle and boring dignitaries and nobles were like treasures, and Xu Xingyou replaced his predecessors and became their guests.

For Xu Xingyou, the capital only means more opponents and opportunities, and his chess skills have a broader world of development.

Soon after entering Beijing, Xu Xingyou heard that a Goryeo envoy claimed to be the best in the world in chess, Xu Xingyou went to know chess, and as a result, he won several games in a row, and the price was higher since then.

If Xu Xingyou wants to gain a firm foothold in Beijing, he will naturally have a vicious fight with his predecessors.

At that time, the old chess player Zhou Donghou was still there, and the famous dramatist Kong Shangren had watched the game between Zhou and Xu at a dignitary's house. This game of chess was played from the time of breakfast, and each time a piece was played, both sides pondered for a long time, pondered again and again, and played until noon. As a result of the calculation, Zhou Donghou lost two sons.

Kong Shangren observed this situation and wrote a poem: "When the curtain is cleared and sitting, the bureau turns white." The veteran Zhou Lang lost his second son, and Chang'an was not a chess player. ”

Xu Xingyou has been in the chess world for more than 40 years, and at the end of Kangxi, Xu Xingyou met Cheng Lanru, a new star in the chess world, in Beijing. Xu Xingyou knew that the general trend was gone, so he returned to his hometown and began his writing career.

······

However, Zhou Rui did not tell Xu Xingyou.

He sees himself as an outsider.

"Mr. Xu, I just have nothing to do, do you want to come to a game", Zhou Rui couldn't help asking.

He wanted to see Xu Xingyou's strength.

Xu Xingyou's eyes couldn't help but light up, he liked to play Go very much, and readily agreed to Zhou Rui's proposal.

Then the two men came to an empty seat.

Because it is a place dedicated to playing chess and communicating, there are many chessboards.

Don't worry about not having a place.

Zhou Rui and Xu Xingyou sat opposite each other, and then guessed chess.

Because it was a competition, there was no referee at all.

And Zhou Rui also started his first game of Go in the Qing Dynasty.

I have to say that Xu Xingyou still has some reputation now, and when he saw Xu Xingyou coming, everyone surrounded him.

Mainly to watch Xu Xingyou play chess.

For Zhou Rui, they don't know.

But with the passage of time, everyone's faces began to become solemn, because they found that Xu Xingyou was not the opponent of the young man in front of them.

The one who was killed was almost a rout.

"Ding", Zhou Rui looked at the chessboard very seriously, and then lifted the piece.

The number of onlookers is increasing.

Some of the people around who were playing chess didn't even play and ran over.

Zhou Rui used the pattern of the great harmony of heaven and earth, and the whole universe seemed to be in his heart.

Xu Xingyou was silent, staring at the chessboard.

They are sparring, so there is no time limit.

Moreover, there was no such thing as a "table" in ancient times.

If you want to keep time, you can only use incense, but this is somewhat impossible.

The people around him see it in their eyes and are anxious in their hearts.

Some people even saw Zhou Rui's trap and wanted to start, but they couldn't speak.

After all, watching chess is silent, no matter how anxious they are, they can't open their mouths to remind.

When Zhou Rui saw this, he smiled secretly in his heart.

Xu Xingyou's chess style is simple and plain, the so-called: "rush and tranquil, chaotic and harmonious", "control in the tangible, not as good as the invisible", "good at fighting and winning, if you don't fight to surrender people", "gossip and neat, generous and decent" and so on.

The most important point in Xu Xingyou's Go is to "not fight and surrender", not to win by fierce fighting, but to erode little by little until the final victory is achieved. It can be said that it is the most difficult to master the strategy and tactics of Go.

But there is a premise for this "soldier who surrenders without a fight".

That's where you have the upper hand.

Otherwise, why bring the family to its knees?

Are you handsome?

This is obviously impossible.

What's more, Xu Xingyou at this time has not yet practiced such a chess style.

So there is only one result.

That is – failure.

······

Xu Xingyou held the chess pieces, pondered for an unknown amount of time, and finally sighed weakly, and then put the chess pieces in his hand into the chess box.

"I'm defeated", Xu Xingyou with a hint of loneliness.

I thought that the other party was a novice and could guide the other party by myself, but I didn't expect it.

What kind of novice is this, it's just a tiger.

He turned out to be no match at all.

He's sure he's better than anyone he's ever faced.

Perhaps, only Huang Longshi Huang can compete with it.

"Good chess, really good chess", just when Xu Xingyou admitted defeat, a voice suddenly came to mind.

I saw a middle-aged man with a goatee standing behind him, a little older than Xu Xingyou.

"Huang family", everyone looked along the voice, and was suddenly surprised, it turned out to be Huang Longshi.

Huang Longshi smiled faintly, and then walked in front of Zhou Rui.

"Little brother, can we have a discussion", Huang Longshi didn't have other ideas, he just wanted to talk to Zhou Rui.

He can feel it, Zhou Rui's strength is not weak.

His blood was boiling.

That feeling of loneliness in the Go world, no one can understand his pain.

When everyone heard Huang Longshi's words, they were shocked!
