Time is like a face, the sun and the moon are like a pot, and eight years have passed.

If it weren't for the occasional memories, Lu Xiaoxian would have even forgotten that he had crossed over from another world.

Eight years ago, because of miasma and the silver-ringed belly snake, Lu Xiaoxian and Zhang Meng were forced to become slaves and apprentices of the immoral ghosts.

Under the constant torture of the immoral ghosts, their bodies became stronger. Especially Zhang Meng, the fat fell cleanly, and was replaced by a strong pimple meat.

Lu Xiaoxian's temperament has also become more and more calm, and he is no longer naïve and youthful in the past. After walking such a long way, I looked back and found that those things that hurt and were about to die could be laughed at.

Now, the miasma and the silver-bellied snake are no longer an obstacle for Lu Xiaoxian and Zhang Meng, but they have been staying in Wangyun Mountain honestly and have never left for a moment.

Lu Xiaoxian has a wish in his heart: he must completely defeat the immoral ghost and really stand up his chest.

Defeat or not defeat the ghost of lack of morality, Zhang Meng is not interested, as long as he can eat enough, as long as he can be with Lu Xiaoxian, he will be content.

……

Early in the morning, Lu Xiaoxian and Zhang Meng walked out of the house, and Bai Gongzi was already waiting outside the house.

Ever since the two of them practiced "Tiangang Jue", Bai Gongzi never had the opportunity to wake them up in his own way.

As time passed, Bai Gongzi also accepted Lu Xiaoxian and Zhang Meng, and was no longer as hostile to them as he was eight years ago.

At this moment, Bai Gongzi flashed his big furry tail and smiled at the two.

Lu Xiaoxian returned a smile, a smile appeared on his face, Zhang Meng had a clear mind, and immediately rushed away with Lu Xiaoxian like an arrow from the string.

Bai Gongzi reacted quickly, and chased after them in a rage.

Ten miles from the wooden house to the river, Lu Xiaoxian and Zhang Meng ran to it with only a pillar of incense.

Lu Xiaoxian caught a few frogs by the river and came to a cave not far away. After a few whistles, two strange-looking golden turtles slowly crawled out of the hole. Lu Xiaoxian put the frogs in front of them, and the two golden turtles enjoyed the food delivered to their door.

The two of them were discovered by accident, Lu Xiaoxian originally thought that the snake-headed money turtle was something made up by boring people, until he met these two turtles, he knew that there was such a thing in the world. He thought it was funny, so he kept the two golden turtles as pets. Every day when he went to the river, Lu Xiaoxian would feed them, and the golden turtle also formed a habit after a long time.

After feeding the golden turtles, Lu Xiaoxian returned to the river, pulled up his trouser legs with Zhang Meng, and began to carefully sift the pebbles.

It was a very boring thing to get up every day to pick up pebbles, and to pick up one more than the day before, but Lu Xiaoxian and Zhang Meng persevered for eight years.

The small cloth bag that originally contained the stones has long been replaced by a huge cowhide bag. The number of stones picked every day has also increased from one to 2,910 now.

Not far away, Bai Gongzi squinted and lay on the ground basking in the sun. It looks lazy, but in fact it is ten times more savvy than the most conscientious overseer. Any slack between Lu Xiaoxian and Zhang Meng will be fully seen by it, and there is a way to let the ghosts who lack virtue know their every move.

When the last pebble was put into the cowhide bag, Lu Xiaoxian and Zhang Meng straightened up and tightened the bag.

Bai Gongzi, who was pretending to be asleep, suddenly stood up, his eyes bright.

Lu Xiaoxian quickly put on his shoes, and said to Bai Gongzi with a hippie smile: "Don't play tricks, I'm not ready yet!" ”

Bai Gongzi smiled and nodded.

Before Lu Xiaoxian could be happy, Bai Gongzi took the lead in rushing out.

"Raippy!" Lu Xiaoxian scolded, grabbed the cowhide bag, carried it on his shoulder, and chased after it.

A cowhide pocket pebbles, three hundred catties, Lu Xiaoxian didn't feel heavy at all. He only cares about how to catch up with Bai Gongzi now, if Bai Gongzi is allowed to reach the wooden house first, he and Zhang Meng will definitely be punished by the lack of morality.

There is a strange picture in the mountains and forests: a white-haired fox is running wildly in front, and two teenagers are carrying a large bag on their backs, walking like flying behind and desperately chasing after them.

……

In front of the wooden house, the immoral ghost and the shaking wind stood side by side, watching the three figures getting closer and closer, and the two of them were full of emotion in their hearts.

The knife is not sharpened, and the person is not sharpened.

In the past eight years, the ghost of lack of virtue has been polishing Lu Xiaoxian's knife with all his might, but the result did not disappoint him.

Now, the knife is so sharp that it is waiting for the day when it will shine brightly.

The cobblestones behind the wooden house had already been piled up like a mountain, and Lu Xiaoxian and Zhang Meng poured out the stones in the cowhide bag and walked over to face the lack of virtue and the wind.

The immoral ghost stared at Lu Xiaoxian with a smile: "Today, let's eat meat!" ”

Lu Xiaoxian nodded lightly.

Ignorant ghosts never say things for no reason, nor do they do things for no reason. There must be a demon when things go wrong, Lu Xiaoxian knows that the ghost who lacks virtue will definitely not really want to eat any meat, and he must have a deep meaning when he says this.

"Let's make a bet!" The immoral ghost is still smiling.

Another trick was about to be staged, Lu Xiaoxian was secretly vigilant in his heart, but he was not shocked on the surface, and responded with a slight smile: "Okay! ”

Over the years, Lu Xiaoxian's edges and corners have been gradually smoothed out, the thorns on his body have been pulled out, he has learned to smile at people he hates, and he has learned to become a quiet person.

Looking at Lu Xiaoxian's calm expression and deep gaze, the wind on the side couldn't help sighing.

As time went by, Lu Xiaoxian became more and more difficult to deal with. In particular, he is not surprised and wise, and sometimes he can't see through the rocking wind.

"Limited to half an hour, let's see who catches more alive!" The ghost who lacks virtue bites the word "captured alive" very hard.

Shaking the wind knew that if the senior brother didn't set the condition of "capturing alive", Lu Xiaoxian would have a hundred ways to get countless.

"No problem!" Lu Xiaoxian remained silent.

"You come first!" The immoral ghost raised his eyebrows slightly.

Lu Xiaoxian raised his eyes to look at the dense treetops above his head, and many chickadees were chirping in the trees.

He took a few sharp steps, climbed up with his hands and feet along the trunk of a tree, and in a blink of an eye he was on a branch seven or eight feet high. Without stopping, he leaped high and grabbed a before it could fly away. When the center of gravity fell, he grabbed a green vine and landed lightly.

From getting up to landing, Lu Xiaoxian jumped and moved in one go, and being able to do this step is inseparable from being forced to climb trees every day by a ghost who lacks morality.

The immoral ghost made a gesture to Lu Xiaoxian and motioned for him to continue.

Lu Xiaoxian concocted the same method, and did not return empty-handed every time. In half an hour, a total of twenty-seven chickadees were captured alive.

"Not bad!" The immoral ghost sincerely appreciated it, and nodded to Lu Xiaoxian, "You wait a while!" ”

The ghost returned to the house, and when he came out, he carried a pot of rice and sprinkled it on the ground at will.

Lu Xiaoxian didn't understand what the lack of virtue ghost meant, but he didn't ask.

The immoral ghost beckoned to Lu Xiaoxian: "Go!" Let's play a game! ”

In the room, the ghost and Lu Xiaoxian sat on both sides of the table, and the chess table was set up on the table.

The ghost who lacks virtue raised his hand, and Lu Xiaoxian was not polite, picking up a white child and ordering it.

The ghost who lacks virtue then picked up a black piece and landed next to the white one. Unlike the previous thick chess style, the Lack of Virtue Ghost launched an offensive from the beginning.

Although Lu Xiaoxian was surprised, he was still as steady as Mount Tai, and he dealt with it well, and he had clever moves from time to time.

Looking at Lu Xiaoxian, who was like water, the ghost who lacked virtue sighed: "I still remember when you first learned Go, you were often greedy for winning, and you would always return defeated, far less calm than now!" ”

Lu Xiaoxian was even more surprised, he used to play with him without virtue and never spoke. I don't know what's going on today, but I suddenly sighed.

"With greed, it will inevitably make people blind and confused, how can they be undefeated?" Lu Xiaoxian nodded in acknowledgement.

At the beginning, if it weren't for the lack of virtue and the ghosts who often killed Lu Xiaoxian, Lu Xiaoxian would not have been able to learn Go, let alone comprehend the subtlety of Go.

In the game with the immoral ghost, Lu Xiaoxian gradually realized a truth: strength is confidence, and strategy is a turnaround.

The immoral ghost said to himself while falling: "If one day, you leave Wangyun Mountain and go to the world of the jungle, it is better to be a wolf than a rabbit. If you have to be a rabbit, you have to run fast, have a hidden and safe burrow, and have a keen sense of hearing. It's like playing chess, if you can't do eyes, how can you cure loneliness? ”

Lu Xiaoxian became more and more strange, the immoral ghost seemed to have something to say, hiding something.

After dozens of hands, the intraday battle situation gradually became more urgent.

The ghost of lack of virtue suddenly made two clever moves in the lower right corner, and Lu Xiaoxian was in trouble.

After thinking for a long time, he finally made the move, and did not follow the rhythm of the immoral ghost, and put the chess in the lower right corner, but directly pointed to the empty hinterland.

Seeing Lu Xiaoxian's hand, the immoral ghost appreciated: "Yes, you didn't disappoint me after all!" ”

After a pause, the ghost who lacked virtue said meaningfully: "To put it bluntly, it is the process of giving up the small to the big, the two benefits are more important, the two evils are less important, why is it big if you don't give up the small?" The choice of chess is unclear, and if you lose, you can re-set the game. If you don't know what to do, you will have a lifelong grudge! ”

Lu Xiaoxian secretly wondered, what happened to the immoral ghost today, saying so many strange things, this is not his style.

When it was nearly 100 hands, the ghost who lacked virtue occupied the corner of the field, and Lu Xiaoxian formed a big void in the middle of the abdomen.

After thinking about it for a while, the ghost who lacked virtue did not hesitate to "penetrate" into the middle abdomen, he wanted to prevent Lu Xiaoxian's big empty space from finally becoming a reality.

Lu Xiaoxian did not show weakness and covered the chess piece he had hit head-on. Now that you're in, don't try to get out alive.

The ghost who lacks virtue has already thought about every step, and his luck is like flying, and his mouth is not idle: "The game is like a war, and before the war, we must seize the opportunity and grasp the proportions." The timing is fleeting, and the difference between victory and defeat is often in one fell swoop. Take the current 'penetration' as an example, too deep will be surrounded and annihilated, and too shallow will not help. The game is like this, and so is life, so it is said: chess is like life. ”

Lu Xiaoxian could feel that the immoral ghost seemed to be hinting at something to him. But at this moment, the chess shape is becoming more and more complicated, and there are dangers everywhere, so that he has no time to be distracted.

Down to more than 200 hands, the two still can't tell the winner. No matter which side makes a slight mistake, it will definitely lose the whole game. The two sides are walking on thin ice, cautious and cautious, and in one step, either you die or I die, which makes people breathless.

At the end of the game, Lu Xiaoxian surrounded a piece of chess that lacked virtue and clicked his eyes, but he couldn't kill it, forming a "double life".

The final game is the same, and the two have the same number of eyes.

Lu Xiaoxian glanced at the immoral ghost and did not speak

The ghost of lack of virtue punned: "Living with a strong master, the draw is not lost, and there is no need to worry about not defeating the opponent." Blindly show weakness and defeat the way. Blindly strong, self-destruction! ”

Lu Xiaoxian nodded involuntarily.

The lack of virtue ghost changed his voice, and suddenly asked: "Do you remember the history of Lin Xiangru returning to Zhao completely?" ”

Of course Lu Xiaoxian remembers.

Lin Xiangru is not afraid of strong Qin, and returns to Zhao completely, and is famous in history for his fearless spirit. This history, Lu Xiaoxian not only learned in later generations. When reading history with the ghost of lack of morality, he also analyzed Lu Xiaoxian in detail many times.

"In fact, even if Xiangru is not afraid of death, if he doesn't have the priceless Heshi Bi in his hands, even if there are ten more Xiangru, King Qin won't even blink an eye when he kills him, do you understand the truth?"

This is something that the ghost of lack of virtue has not talked about before, if Lu Xiaoxian has realized: If there is only Lin Xiangru's spirit, and there is no Bi, it is impossible for King Qin to condescend to make peace.

Wonderful, indeed wonderful, "wonderful hands" are always light.

The mind of the immoral ghost jumped quickly, and his voice changed again: "It's just half an hour, we can go out now!" ”

The game was too tense just now, Lu Xiaoxian forgot to bet on this stubble, and after listening to the lack of virtue ghost say this, he remembered the bet.

When he came outside the house, the scene in front of him made Lu Xiaoxian dumbfounded: the lying on the ground in the black outside the house flapped their wings from time to time.

He picked up the chickadees and put them in the basket, and there were hundreds of them, all of them alive.

Lu Xiaoxian was convinced, and calmly said to the immoral ghost: "I lost!" ”

"Dealing with tricky problems sometimes requires a different approach, and there are unexpected results!" The lack of virtue ghost tested Lu Xiaoxian, "Do you know, how did I do it?" ”

The problem must be in the rice, Lu Xiaoxian picked up a few grains of rice from the ground, put them in front of his nose and sniffed them, shook his head and smiled bitterly.

It turned out that the rice had been soaked in strong liquor, and the chickadee ate the rice and got drunk.

This kind of alternative way can also be figured out by the ghost of lack of virtue.

"Remember when I taught you to drink?" There was a smile in the eyes of the ghost who lacked virtue.

How can you not remember?

In the past eight years, drinking every day has not only been a must-do for him and Zhang Meng, but also a habit for both of them.

"It is said that when you are drunk, you can tell the truth after drinking, and your words and deeds after drinking can show a person's true temperament, and you can also see the various states of life on the wine table." Speaking of this, there was a hint of loneliness on the face of the lack of morality, "With a good amount of wine, sooner or later you will use it." At least not like these chickadees, which will become a delicacy in other people's mouths. ”

The ghost who lacks virtue speaks today is very different from the past, a little weird, but he can't say what's wrong!

……
