After a busy day outside, Li Chengzong returned to his home, and saw his wife and concubine playing chess there, Li Chengzong sighed, "People who can play chess are not necessarily smart, and there are many people who are confused." On the chessboard, the chess pieces are cleverly arranged, but they compete for a level of skill; The road of life, walking and walking, deviated from the right position, that is called a full game of losing ......"

His emotion suddenly made Yang Rong and Feng Tao'er stop the game, and the two of them put down the chess pieces in their hands and looked at Li Chengzong together, "I said Ah Wei, what's wrong with you?" Smashing such philosophical words? This is Yang Rong, and Feng Taoer also asked Li Chengzong with a smile, "Well, sister, smile carefully, our husband's words are quite reasonable.....

"Hehehe, today, on a whim, I went to work as the prefect of Qindao for half a day, and broke a case of 'life and death chess'......" Li Chengzong said with a smile, "Do you want to hear it?" ”

Seeing the two girls together, Li Chengzong smiled slightly, and he began to tell that there is a Sangjiazhuang on the outskirts of Qindao, and there is a person in the village who loves to play chess, named Kang Lin. Every year, he takes chess everywhere to find masters, learn chess skills, and rarely stay at home honestly for a period of time throughout the year. His wife, Chunlan, often had to take care of their infant child alone.

On this day, Kang Lin just came back from visiting friends, and before he got home to take a breath, he walked directly into the house of his chess friend Ma Xing. The two set up the chessboard, agreed to bet on one or two pieces of silver, and started the chess game.

At the end of the three rounds, Kanglin won. Ma Xing asked his wife to set up the wine and food, and the two of them chatted while drinking. After three rounds of drinking, Ma Xing suddenly asked: "Brother Kang, you and I have always played chess only for pleasure and not for money, why did you propose to place a bet today?" ”

Kang Lin's face flushed: "Brother, I won't tell you, I went out for seven months this time, and the silver was spent, and I almost came back with food." I thought about why I had to buy something for Chunlan and her mother, but I really had no choice, so I had to come to you. ”

"I turned out to want to buy something for my sister-in-law, okay!" Ma Xingyang lowered his neck and drained a glass of wine, and then muttered in a low voice, "You think about others, who knows if people are also thinking about you!" ”

Kang Lin was stunned for a moment, and frowned: "Brother, you make it clear, don't play dumb riddles with me, what's wrong with Chunlan?" ”

Ma Xing was hesitant, as if he wanted to prevaricate something, but Kang Lin pressed on, Ma Xing had no choice, so he took advantage of the strength of eight or nine points of wine, lowered his voice and said-"On the seventh day of the first month of last month, it was not quiet in the dead of night", and then he was silent.

Kang Lin couldn't drink any more, so he got up and took his leave, and walked quickly to his house. When I arrived at the door of the house, I saw that the courtyard door was closed, Kang Lin pushed hard, and the door bolt was bolted inside. His anger suddenly did not hit one place, nor did he call the door, but climbed over the wall and entered the house.

Chunlan was coaxing the child, Kang Lin didn't say anything to her, and began to look around, but after looking inside and outside the house, there was no one in the house. Kang Lin frowned and began to rummage through the cabinets. Suddenly, a brand-new burden at the bottom of the box came into view, and he tore it open, revealing a cleanly washed and neatly folded robe.

Kang Lin's eyes began to redden: "What is this?" ”

"This ...... This is me...... The robes I washed for the Taoist in the temple. Chunlan grabbed Kang Lin's arm, "Husband, you have to believe me!" ”

"On the seventh day of last month, you won't forget it, will you?"

Chunlan's face turned white all of a sudden, and her lips trembled: "I...... I am innocent! ”

"Innocence? Hmph, it's so innocent that you bring it home! ”

"I didn't! After you left, I kept begging Mama Feng to be my companion, and she could testify! ”

"Feng Ma? Okay, when I get everything out, I'll clean up you slut! After Kang Lin finished speaking, he turned and left.

Kang Lin went to Feng's mother's house, he asked Feng's mother carefully, and after learning that he left home, Chunlan did ask Feng's mother to come over as a companion, Feng's mother must go every night these days, and there has never been a miss.

Kang Lin was stunned for a moment, and then asked, "Mother Feng, then you went to my house on the seventh day of the first lunar month last month, did you see anything?" ”

Feng's mother's face changed suddenly, and her hands trembled: "No...... There is no ......"

Kang Lin "pounced" and fell to the ground: "Mother Feng, when my mother is alive, I will be like a sister with you, for the sake of my dead mother, you should also tell me the truth!" ”

Feng's mother's tears flowed down suddenly, and she helped Kang Lin with both hands: "Child, no matter what happens, you have to hold on...... That night, I had something going on at home, and it was late when I went to your house, and the door of your house was slammed, so I knocked on the door. At this time, I suddenly saw someone come out of the wall, jump to the ground and fall, then get up and run away. I was about to shout, the door opened, Chunlan pulled me in, she looked flustered, and I didn't ask anything more......"

"Who's that man?"

"I didn't see it clearly, but it looked like a Taoist priest."

"This bull's nose!" Kang Lin was extremely annoyed and left Feng's mother's house angrily. When he returned home, Chunlan was holding the child and crying, he pulled Chunlan over, slapped his head and face, and then grabbed the burden wrapped in a Taoist robe and threw down a sentence: "I'll clean you up when I come back!" ”

After Kang Lin left, Feng's mother came, she couldn't let go, came to take a look, and when she arrived at Kang's house, she saw the courtyard door wide open, she rushed into the house to take a look, and couldn't help but exclaim: Chunlan has been hanging on the beam......

Kang Lin went straight to the Shengxian Temple, which is the only temple within a radius of hundreds of miles, said to be a temple, in fact, there is only one room, a Taoist priest, the Taoist priest is called "Deqing", it is rumored that the chess skills are very good. The Ascension Immortal Temple was more than thirty miles away from Sangjiazhuang, so when Kang Lin rushed to the temple out of breath, it was already the beginning of the rising sun.

Kang Lin was full of anger when he first left the house, but along the way, he gradually calmed down a lot, and when he met Deqing, he seemed to be very calm on the surface. Isn't it, this kind of thing of men and women who are reluctant to do things still need to observe words and look carefully, and they can't be impatient.

So, Kang Lin lied that he was here to play chess with Deqing and offered to play three games with him. Deqing agreed, he sat down, and played chess seriously with the strange visitor.

At the end of the two sets, Kang Lin lost all, he looked at Deqing: "Dao Changqi played well, amazing!" ”

Deqing shook his head: "Its implementation of the main chess skill is far better than the poor road, but the donor's heart is not quiet, it seems that the donor is not looking for the poor way to play chess, but to have something." ”

"Dao Chang is right, does Dao Chang know the Kang Li clan of Sangjiazhuang?"

Deqing thought for a moment and shook his head: "Can the donor be more specific?" ”

Kang Lin stared at Deqing: "It's the little daughter-in-law named Chunlan who lives at the edge of the village." ”
