Chapter 14: Lost

When the girl came back, the two of them were out of the study to talk about words and paintings, and the pen and ink of the lonely song of the competition were a lonely sail far away, and the pen was strong and powerful, but in the end, I didn't know how to rakugo, Shi Yanwen opened a book of poetry at will, and happened to see two good poems, and before they were read, they were disrupted by a sudden series of movements. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

The little fat man rolled a piece of pastry out of nowhere, slipped in a few circles from the window frame, and stood on the shoulder of Jingri Guming with a rather eager look, leaving a few small footprints on the painting by the way.

Then I saw a flower snake the size of a tree branch follow in, and then in the warm study, after spitting out snake hyacinth on the painting, it quickly coiled into a small mountain, and splashed a large area of black ink by the way.

Then before the two of them could fully react, they heard the little fat man screaming and jumping away, the door was kicked open by a person, and the little girl who had changed into a plush new dress rolled her eyes at the door, and flew into Shi Yanwen's arms, knocking over an ink plate by the way.

“……”

Shi Yanwen chuckled silently, and by the way, she held a small hand behind her back.

Jingri Guming put down his strokes, and didn't seem to mind the series of accidents just now, but was a little happy, "I came back so early, didn't I cause trouble outside again." ”

"That's right," the little girl raised her head from Shi Yanwen's arms, stuck out her tongue, and was triumphant, "It's also a big trouble, I accidentally lost a subordinate, hmph, I think your days of seclusion are over!" ”

Shi Yanwen shook her head, just as she was joking, and chuckled, "With sharp teeth and sharp mouth, I don't feel tired and panicked after walking for the past few days, and I want to play tricks on people when I come back," Shi Yanwen slowly brought her hand to the front, and most of the gray powder in her palm had been shaken off, "What is this?" ”

The little girl hadn't spoken yet, but Jing Ri Guming spoke first, how did it sound like she was snickering, "If I'm not mistaken, it should be...... Tickle powder? ”

Shi Yanwen's face changed slightly, that thing was a little stained on his clothes, it shouldn't matter, right? As soon as his eyes rolled and he thought that the girl's nemesis should also be back, his face couldn't cry or laugh again.

The girl also laughed, not only laughed, but also threw the last bit of powder in her hand in the air, layer by layer like a powder rain, not only stained the pen and ink flowers and snakes on the table with a layer of white ash, but also bluffed the two people hurriedly dodged left and right, but they avoided it far away.

Unexpected.

"Haha, you guys play slowly, this girl is going to wash and sleep!" As he spoke, he paused at the door, "By the way, what about the fat mouse?" ”

Jing Ri Guming and Shi Yanwen were avoiding the side, and they couldn't help but smile when they heard this, no wonder the little fat man was so panicked.

Shi Yanwen laughed: "You kid...... I was scared away by you. ”

"Humph!"

"Ha ......"

Shi Yanwen looked at Jingri Guming a little embarrassed, but found that the other party had no white ash on his body, and he just smiled at him.

Sure enough, experienced.

"Sir, shall we go out and breathe?"

Definitely.

In the border town, there are not many things purchased, but the bedding and fabric for the winter are enough, and some ordinary herbs are stored in grain, so five or six wooden boxes were transported, and it was easy to come back by avoiding the Miao army checkpoint and villain tracking along the way.

Liuli couldn't help sighing, and when she turned around, she saw two people standing in the corridor, draped in tents, and a familiar smell wafting in the wind.

Liuli lowered her head, silently took out two pills from the Dan bag and handed them to them, her voice was cold, "Master, Engong." ”

"I'm sorry for you." Shi Yanwen smiled embarrassedly.

"Don't dare."

"......" Shi Yanwen found that the people in this courtyard are two extremes, enthusiasm and indifference are intertwined, but no matter which extreme, it can make people feel a sense of distance.

Distance......

Shi Yanwen looked at the side, fortunately, not everyone was.

"Don't stand here, let's go to the gazebo." Racing for the sun and singing alone.

"Okay, by the way, just now—"

"Do you want to play chess?"

"Huh?" Shi Yanwen was a little hesitant, "Such a big wind? ”

"Don't you want to?"

“…… Gladly so. ”

It's weird.

"Liuli," Jing Ri Gu Ming's eyes bent, and there was more fox-like cunning in the room, as always, handsome and elegant as ever, although it also revealed a calculation that was difficult to ignore, but it did not lose its style.

"Go get the Jade Ion Chessboard."

"Yes."

This time, Shi Yanwen sat down with a smile, and he would not lose too quickly.

But soon Shi Yanwen found that the situation was not right, not too fast, but too slow, the chess game that he lost in the past in an hour dragged on for two hours, and he was still very self-aware of his chess skills.

"What's wrong?"

"Sir," Shi Yanwen adjusted her facial expression to make herself look more natural, "...... It's too much. ”

Two-thirds of the three hundred and sixty-one intersections were covered, and after removing the first stickers, there was only three points under the two hours, and the black and white qi were scattered, and the gold and silver horns were not empty.

Is this any different from playing chess?

Jingri Lonely Ming fell a son, and drew a win or lose, "There is still a difference." ”

Shi Yanwen glanced at him, "I didn't say anything." ”

"Oh," Jing Ri Lonely Ming leaned lazily back in the soft chair, his expression very puzzled, "Did I say something?" ”

“…… Not. ”

At the right time, at the end of the chess, Liuli quietly came to the outside of the pavilion, as if he had pinched the time to invite them into the room to rest, and the refreshments and pet bitter medicine were all fragrant.

Broadly speaking, if no one is hurt, it's another day of idleness.

Two injured people - Fang Yifang Yishen, is a guard who travels with Liuli, five short figures, after the main position is broken, sweeping away the traces, originally a person who is not exposed on the table, but was attacked by the Miao army outside the town, saying that someone reported that he had killed people and seized treasures, and wanted to arrest them.

The whereabouts are so accurate, the martial arts are not bad, with only ten people, they can actually cut a long knife on them, you must know that the people cultivated by Jingri Guming are a hundred, but the power of overturning.

The study is not big, there is a hairy leaning on each side, Shi Yanwen leans on this side to drink tea and read books, and Jingri Guming leans on there to drink and discuss, although the occasional sneer is more like a drinking party.

…… There is only one person who laughs from beginning to end.

Shi Yanwen listened attentively, and probably guessed that they had fallen into someone else's trap, and the add-ons for returning from blood were two battle books, and the other party acted quite quickly.

But, too fast.

I always feel that something is wrong, that the person is wrong, that what is said is not right, no matter who says it. But after all, it was Miao Jiang's business, and it was normal to hide something from him.

Just thinking about it, the book in front of him was turned a page, Shi Yanwen looked up, Jingri Guming was looking at the chess game in his hand but laughed silently, and the other two went out at some point, and even Liuli retreated.

Shi Yanwen silently changed the book, and then moved out of the way and said, "Sir, has you come to a conclusion?" ”

Jingri Guming waved his hand at him, and he occupied the square chair next to him, as if he was used to it, "It's just an inferior radical, don't care about it from the inferior." ”

"Sir seems to have expected it?" Shi Yanwen asked, "I mean that the whereabouts were exposed, and the rear was attacked." ”

Jing Ri Guming laughed, "It's just a guess." ”

Shi Yanwen looked at him deeply, "Just act on speculation...... The gentleman was willing to throw the bait. ”

"Ha," Jingri Guming half-closed his eyes, "The two armies are fighting, and if you don't cut them off, you can survive by breaking your tail, and you can also protect the overall situation." ”

Shi Yanwen was silent, he didn't understand this truth, but there is always a case in everything, and the rest of the guards can still protect themselves, but Liuli and the girl ......

"Their knife wounds are not simple."

"See?"

"Well, the head and tail are shallow, but there are deep bones in them, like a saber, or a scimitar. It's not like the weapons that the Miao Jiang soldiers are equipped with. “

Jing Ri said alone: "It's all killing, what kind of weapon is used?" What's more, in this uninhabited borderland, military management is not strict, and it is normal for the other party to use the forces of the rivers and lakes. “

"Really?" But why do you want to pretend to be Miao Jun, isn't it redundant to cover up like this?

At the end of the day, there's something wrong.

Such a confrontation is so simple and crude that there is almost no need for strategy, so ordinary that there is no need to wait for three years at all, what is the reason why it has been silent for so long, but it is so urgent at this moment? If it is really a partisan dispute, the other party does not need to offend this prince at all, after all, it is difficult for Miao Jiang to deal with it if there is a ninth military division.

Restricted by time, but in the past, he obviously didn't care about time, and his style changed too quickly.

Did the identity of the other party be revealed too early? No, it should be said that it has never been hidden, how can it be like some unfathomable rival, but like a mask that hides the real murderer, the shoddy and unsightly, the old fox who dominates the officialdom, can he be so stupid?

Thinking about it this way, it seems that what he knows from beginning to end may be false. The purpose, the enemy, the overall situation, and even the old man and the young man.

Headache, Shi Yanwen frowned, just like a chess game in a book, intricate.

It's not far away, it's time-consuming and laborious, and it may even end miserably, so why bother?

Unless, what the other party wants is much greater than power and wealth, and he dares to set up such a terrible enemy - the king of Beijing, who is enough to subvert Miao Jiang, can make people disappear with a flick of his fingers.

The previous wait might be ignored.

And now Jingri Guming, but I don't want to ignore it, not only that, but it can even be said to be important. That is, I didn't want anything, but now I suddenly asked for something, and I was in a hurry.

"What the hell is ......," Shi Yanwen muttered unconsciously.

"What?"

"Huh?" Shi Yanwen came back to his senses and was about to answer that it was nothing, but Jing Ri Guming suddenly got up, also sat on the soft chair, and stared at him motionlessly with his head sideways, like an old pedant who had discovered novelties in the school.

"Sir?" Shi Yanwen uncomfortably let go to the side, although he didn't let much, but his attention was all attracted by Jing Ri's lonely expression, "Is there something wrong?" ”

The crimson in Jing Ri Guming's eyes spread out, and he said, "I just thought of something." ”

"What's the matter?"

Jingri Guming said with some nostalgia: "I used to wonder what it was like for others to look at me when I was lying on the beauty lean, either gentle and polite, or sick and weak, or even envious, but in any case, it shouldn't be my way of seeing you." ”

“…… What does it feel like? Shi Yanwen was a little curious.

At the same time, he also found that Jingri Guming had not used the noble title of "Xiao Wang" for him for a long time, either "below" or "me".

As for the fact that he had been accustomed to sitting upright for decades, he suddenly became relaxed and lazy - at least for himself, Ben was also a little uncomfortable, and Shi Yanwen guessed that the answer was probably like sitting on pins and needles.

Who wants to compete for the sun Gu Ming's expression changed suddenly, and a handsome and calculating smile appeared, "People are as their name suggests." "After all, it was said.

People as the name suggests?

Shi Yanwen was stunned for a long time, then suddenly blinked, and suddenly felt that his ears were a little hot, and then he replied to him in a daze, "...... Sir, I like to laugh more and more. ”

"Is there one?"

"Besides, I'm supposed to be older than my husband...... Nine years old. ”

"So?" Jing Ri Gu Ming half-squinted his eyes, "Do you want me to respect the old and love the young." ”

Shi Yanwen tilted his head and thought about it, he didn't mean it, he just wanted to remind him when he said this, as for what he was reminding, maybe even he didn't know about it, he just vaguely felt that there was something to pay attention to.

"I just want to say that, I'm not young anymore."

"Buddhism says: Life is made by oneself, phase is born from the heart, Yanwen's temperament and appearance, don't you know it yourself?"

“…… It is only affected by the stance of the body. ”

Jing Ri Gu Ming's eyes flashed, leaned back against the armrest on the other side, his eyes swept over the black hair spread on the snow-white goose feathers, raised his eyebrows and looked at the book resting next to the hair, and asked, "Where did you just see it?" ”

"Ah, that," Shi Yanwen came back to her senses, blinked her eyes and staggered her gaze: "It's just a casual look." ”

Jing Ri held his chin and asked with a smile, "Do you have any feelings?" ”

Shi Yanwen tried hard to recall, "The chess path is complex and changeable, the first move is featureless, and in the end it has become the biggest killer move, looking at the overall situation, although there are abandoned children, but there is no waste, Mr. is really superior, grace ......" Shi Yanwen shook his head and sighed, "It's a little dazzling." “

"In the end, it is a well-known champion of civil and military affairs, and it is possible to draw such a complicated conclusion by reading it at will." Jing Ri Guming praised again and again, and said: "But I remember that it was not signed." ”

Shi Yanwen's face was slightly confused, and his smile was warm and harmless, "I recognize Mr.'s handwriting." ”

"Yes."

"Yes."

Jingri Guming picked up the book and flipped through it, raising his eyebrows: "There are words on it?" ”

...... "Well, it's true that there's no word on it."

Shi Yanwen felt helpless, since he was punctured, there was nothing to struggle with, a manly man, frankly admitting that it is better than twisting and pinching, and a little competitiveness is also a good thing.

"Mr. and Zai played a game of chess, which made Yanwen feel that his chess skills were not perfect, so he had to find out the enemy's situation first, at least not lose so ugly next time."

"That's it......" Jingri Guming put the book aside, as if he was suddenly interested again, "It's a pity that these are dead things, it's better to ask me, a living person, for advice, and get twice the result with half the effort." ”

"I think my comprehension is not bad, although it takes some time, I won't trouble Mr."

……

"Losing a lot doesn't mean that the strength is poor, too much affection is not a benefit, you ......"

"Sir."

"Huh?"

"You teach people to play chess, it's really different......"

"Isn't that more intuitive? The little blue wolf liked it very much. ”

“…… It's just a little hot. "He is not King Miao, and King Miao will like to learn to play chess in the arms of King Beijing when he is an adult?!

Shi Yanwen twitched her shoulders slightly, trying to activate her stiff muscles, but unfortunately she ran into another person as soon as she moved...... 's arms bent, bent forward and felt a little suspicious of deliberate evasion, and then stiffened.

"Should it be cold at night, or should I move the stove farther away?"

“…… Good. ”

In fact, it wasn't very hot, and Jingri Guming didn't move it far, and when he turned around, he was a little amused to see the person who obviously lowered his head and relaxed, and the person who was a little nervous after he sat down wanted to laugh even more.

Of course, you can't laugh out loud.

Jingri Guming put one hand behind Shi Yanwen, and the other hand stuck the chess pieces, and the two of them just filled the bench on a chessboard. If you look closely, you can see that he is leaning sideways and propping his hands on the long lean, and from a distance, it looks like the whole person is lying on Shi Yanwen's back.

The ambiguous distance, the gentle words that kept wading in his ears, the soft and hot breathing in his neck, and the thought of playing chess, Shi Yanwen only felt weird.

"Concentrate."

“…… Sorry, Yanwen is distracted again. Shi Yanwen shrank for a moment, the breathing in his neck suddenly increased, and a quick flash, Shi Yanwen twitched the corners of his mouth, and didn't want to turn his head to look at him, so he tried his best to relax and divert his attention to the chessboard, and only asked: "Sir, have you seen anything funny again?" ”

Jing Ri Guming's face was faint, he didn't even see half of his body shake when he seemed to be indifferent, but his eyes seemed to be smiling for a long time, "It's okay." He took another piece of white chess and put it in Shi Yanwen's hand, and said in his ear, "Think about it, what if you are in the city, besieged on all sides, and the grain and grass are cut off." ”

Shi Yanwen looked at the chessboard, couldn't take his eyes off it, thinking that this was not leading troops to fight, and said with experience: "...... Break through the siege alone and call for help. ”

"What if the enemy is surrounded by heavy troops and has no help to ask for?"

"Divide into small teams, disguise and travel secretly, follow the terrain and natural dangers, or you can escape."

Jingri Guming hooked the corners of his mouth, and followed the temptation, "There are too many people, there are still dead and injured, and there are two feasible strategies, Yanwen must know." ”

Shi Yanwen's mind was slightly biased, and he thought that maybe this was his final goal, but if he really encountered such a thing on the battlefield, the good result would be that his life would be safe, and the bad would be the annihilation of the whole army.

But I have to say, that is indeed a feasible strategy.

“…… Discord, or, deception. ”

"Most of them are like this on the table, and they are worthy of being the squire of the military department." After speaking, he added, "But what if the person who forced you is me?" “

Shi Yanwen frowned slightly, and couldn't help but look back at him, slowly sneering, wanting to speak and stopping, deliberately giving the other party time to react, although the other party didn't give him any reaction, he still seemed to be smiling like that, looking forward to his answer.

Too close will make people dodge, the advantage is that people can be observant, although sometimes because of too close, it may be confusing to the authorities, but he has never been such a person. Jingri Guming can clearly see the forbearance and incomprehension of the person in his arms, but it is just that he didn't see it, and there is nothing difficult about it.

If the town is bored, can you only use jokes for fun? Shi Yanwen was very helpless about the observation results, so he replied to him half-truthfully, "If this is the case, why not if it really falls?" Sir is not a man who loves brutal slaughter. ”

The answer was expected, but it was still exciting.

"It's an honor to be so highly regarded by Shi Junzi."

"Huh."

Shi Yanwen chuckled, feeling that the atmosphere was finally not so weird, and was silently relieved, but there was a familiar footstep outside the door, like an uninvited young guest.

"Lord Wang, Shi Junzi, Xiaosheng Wu Fu, can you give a cup of hot tea to the villain."

“……”

"Sir, there is a visitor."

“…… Tomorrow, let's go and change the formation. ”

"Then let's talk about it tomorrow," Shi Yanwen took the opportunity to get up, took the chessboard away with a serious attitude, and turned around and chuckled, "I'll go make tea for you another." ”

Before the words fell, a person had already pushed the door into the house, with a hat, very unceremoniously grabbed the square chair under the seat, and said loudly, "Hot, I'm cold!" ”
