A chessboard is being placed under the locust tree, and several onlookers stand around it. Between the chessboards is the battlefield, and the two sides face off against each other.

'Click~'

The moment the chess pieces fell, it was like dreaming back to the prosperous period of the ancient Tang Dynasty, and the crisp sound of falling pieces covered the chessboard.

It was extremely quiet all around.

The beads of sweat hanging between the eyebrows revealed the nervousness and uneasiness of the onlookers. The onlookers didn't dare to open a word or a word easily, especially in such an extremely tense atmosphere, let alone interject!

"Lao Yangtou, you are killing ruthlessly!" Looking at the position of Luozi, the middle-aged man sitting opposite Lao Yangtou was already in a cold sweat at the center of his eyebrows, and his heart was even raised to a height.

The middle-aged man did not expect that the white chess, which should have been in the upper hand, was completely disrupted the moment the black chess fell, and even forced the white chess to the edge for a time.

The middle-aged man stared at the chessboard. Picked up the teacup on the table, put it to his lips and took two sips, and then put it back on the table.

"Don't think that no matter how you play, you can win steadily. Look, see how I break your black pieces!" he said as he picked up a white piece from the chessboard.

After thinking for a while, he raised his hand and made a standard clamp motion. 'Click~' In an instant, everyone held their breath. The white chess piece in his hand also fell under the chessboard, and suddenly there was a crisp falling sound.

Breath for breath all around. The sound died down, and everyone looked at the chessboard.

'Hu~' looked at each other one by one, looked at each other, gasped, and looked at the middle-aged man one after another, as if looking at a monster looking at him.

Between the chessboards, the position where the white pieces fall can be described as a dangerous move. It not only defuses the besieged white pieces, but also forces the black pieces to the dangerous peak - this move is really a second.

Lao Yang looked at the game on the chessboard, pretended to be mysterious at the corner of his mouth, and stroked his beard with his hand. The whole person seems to be very comfortable, like an immortal outside the chessboard, and he already knows the chess game well.

"Huh?"

Suddenly, he picked up a piece from the chessboard and put it on his chest to prepare to fall. In the afterglow, a young man passed under the locust tree and caught his eye. "Isn't this the kid from the Yang family?" Old Yang was slightly puzzled.

He put the black piece back on the board, looked over the crowd of onlookers, and looked at the young man around the corner. "What's in your arms?" muttered at the corner of his mouth.

And this young man is none other than Yang Ling himself, who is holding the little monkey.

Yang Ling hugged the little monkey and came to the corner. "Huh?" stopped abruptly, and looked under the locust tree, "When I passed by the locust tree just now, I obviously felt that there were people under the locust tree, but why did it disappear?" he felt puzzled.

There was nothing under the locust tree in my eyes, only a few children, who were playing in circles and throwing snowballs. Seeing this, Yang Ling shook his head, turned around again, and muttered at the corner of his mouth: "Maybe I'm thinking too much." Then he walked into the corner with the little monkey in his arms and left the place.

Everyone was also surprised when they suddenly saw Lao Yangtou's move.

"Old Yangtou, what are you looking at?" the middle-aged man's gaze crossed the crowd and looked around the corner. But there was no one around the corner, which made him feel strange.

"No, nothing. ”

Lao Yang came back to his senses and smiled, "I just saw a familiar passerby, maybe I'm old and dazzled." He looked at Yang Ling's departing back, and felt a trace of fear.

wiped the cold sweat that appeared between his eyebrows with his hand, and his eyes were full of confusion.

"Oh?"

The middle-aged man was puzzled, "What kind of passerby can attract the attention of your old Yang Tou?"

"Actually, it's nothing, maybe I'm really dazzled. Lao Yang smiled, touched the back of his head and didn't speak.

However, what puzzled him was - how could he see something behind that kid from the Yang family......

"Well, well. The middle-aged man saw that Lao Yang Tou was reluctant to speak, so he didn't force it. Changing the subject, he continued: "Old Yang, it's time for you to go. ”

"I'll take a look......"

Lao Yang stroked the beard on his mouth with his hand, and looked at the chessboard. I saw that he grabbed a black chess piece from the chess cup and put it on his chest, and the corners of his mouth slowly went up. "Look how I killed you to nothing!"

Between the words, Lao Yangtou's hand was also put down, and the black chess in his hand fell into the chessboard, and the moment the 'click~' chess pieces fell into the chessboard, the crisp sound of falling pieces covered the entire chessboard.

Suddenly. There was silence all around......

After Yang Ling left from the alley, he crossed the corner, and there was no distance between the two houses, so he stopped in front of the door of the third house. He raised his head and looked at the somewhat dilapidated gate valve, 'Alas~' couldn't help but feel lonely.

Turning around, he looked at the brightly lit city, and it was obvious that he was a little out of place here. "When is the gap between the rich and the poor in this world not too big?" Yang Ling lowered his head, there was a trace of confusion in his eyes, his eyes were trembling, and his deep pupils were missing some light.

"Alas......" shook his head helplessly and let out a long sigh. Yang Ling turned around and looked at the house in front of him, "Little monkey, let's get home." Yu Guang also glanced at the monkey in his arms.

"Huh?" the young monkey was puzzled, but he couldn't help but be scared in his heart. "Could this be the territory of the gods and ghosts, Amore?" At the thought of this, his body curled up several points, and his whole body trembled.

Young monkey: It's over, it's doomed! Ask for the blessing of the monkey ancestor Sun Wukong, don't eat me, don't eat me, I'm not delicious......

“...... What's wrong with this monkey, is it sick?" Yang Ling hugged the monkey, but he felt the monkey trembling, which made him feel a burst of doubt.

Yang Ling: We don't know about monkeys, and we don't know what's wrong? Let's go to the pet hospital first and find a veterinarian.

Young Monkey: You're sick, your whole family is sick! If you hadn't found a devil, I'd have played dead?

Yang Ling: When did I become a devil? What does it have to do with me if you pretend to be dead? I will take you back to my house with kindness, so that if you die somewhere, if you are taken away by wild dogs, you will not even have a corpse......

Young Monkey: I'll draw a circle and curse you......

Yang Ling took out the key from his arms, but stood in front of the door for a long time and refused to open the door, "I don't know what my mother and sister will do to me after this night?"

He raised his head again, but his eyes were a little more confused, "Whether it's dead or alive, you will know when we meet." ”

I also mustered up the courage and inserted the key in my hand into the keyhole. 'Click~' came from the keyhole with the crisp sound of the door opening.

"Mom, I'm back!" Yang Ling pushed open the door with a calm smile on his face.
