Ye Zhou Xuan invited the four idiots and Gu Liuquan to come to the east building to play chess, implement his new seat of Go, and paste two and a half sons first.

Zhou Xuan is like Ma Rong lecturing, surrounded by beautiful women, Yang Xiaofeng, Nian Nujiao, and Xiaoxiang, this hand towel, that handing teacup, Hou Ye's life is so happy.

Zhou Xuan posed for a variety of stereotypical changes such as the star position of the corners, small eyes, outside the eyes, high eyes, and three three, and the four idiots and Gu Liuquan were dazzled, but they really didn't expect that as soon as the seat went, the changes in the corners were ten times more complicated.

Gu Liuquan sighed: "Except for Hou Ye Zhou, who in the world today understands such precise and complex changes in the horns? Even the chess immortal has to bow down to Zhou Houye. ”

Zhou Xuan asked: "Who is the chess immortal?" ”

Gu Liuquan said: "The chess immortal is Zhang Xian, who is ranked first among the eighteen major chess players, this person has never been defeated since he became famous, and he has only lost three games in black, and his chess strength is outstanding. ”

Zhou Xuan thought for a while, and suddenly asked: "This Zhang Yi is from the Song Dynasty, is he the author of "Thirteen Chapters of the Book of Chess"?" ”

Gu Liuquan nodded and said: "He is a native of the Song Kingdom, and now lives in Kaifeng Mansion, Tokyo, but I haven't heard that he is the author of "Thirteen Chapters of the Book of Chess". ”

Zhou Xuanxin said: "It should be Zhang Yi who wrote the "Thirteen Chapters of the Book of Chess", it may not be time yet, and his "Book of Chess" has not been written yet. said: "In the future, if you have the opportunity, you will definitely visit this Zhang Da chess player who is the first in the world - hey, fourth, isn't your second brother the top three chess players?" ”

The four idiots shook their heads and said, "My second brother lives in seclusion in the mountains. It has been ten years since he was involved in the world, he has superb chess skills, but he is not famous, and he is not among the 18 top chess players. ”

Gu Liuquan knew that the chess strength of the four idiots was now on par with him, so he asked: "Mr. Fourth, is your second brother's chess strength stronger than you and Mr. San?" ”

The four idiots showed a look of respect: "My second brother is obsessed with chess, where can I compare, in the past, the second brother used to play two-in-a-row chess with me, and now my chess strength has grown a little." It is estimated that it is still between the second son and the first son, and it is rare for my third brother to win once when he is let the first by the second brother. ”

Gu Liuquan was amazed, he knew that the chess strength of the three idiots could be ranked around twelve or three in the eighteen major chess. Even Huang Xingjian, who is ranked fourth, has a slight upper hand in the first chess game with the three idiots, and he can win about six games in ten games. And the second brother mentioned by the four idiots let the three idiots go first, and it is difficult for the three idiots to win, so this person is fully capable of ranking among the top three big chess players!

Zhou Xuan shook his head and said: "It's unimaginable, a secluded deep mountain and old forest. A chess player who lacks an opponent of equal strength can maintain such a strong chess strength, and the chess strength depends on sharpening, and if he does not sharpen his chess sense, he will be dull——"

The four idiots furrowed their eyebrows and said, "The master doesn't believe what I say?" Don't think you're great. In front of my second brother, you just let you win first. ”

Zhou Xuan smiled: "Fourth, what are you anxious about." I believe that the dick is very strong. But I don't believe that if he has been in seclusion in the mountains for ten years, he will definitely sneak out to play against the masters. ”

The four idiots stopped talking.

Gu Liuquan and the four idiots played the first game according to the new rules. Four idiots hold the black line, and in the final game, there are two more sons on the white chessboard, two and a half pieces are pasted, and the four idiots win half of them.

The four idiots are the first beneficiaries of the new rules of Go, and they are overjoyed.

In the second game, the four idiots took the lead in white, the four idiots were young, and the understanding of the new layout was obviously stronger than that of Gu Liuquan, who took advantage of the beginning, and Gu Liuquan played steadily and steadily, and gradually reversed the unfavorable situation in the middle game.

This chess game was played until late at night, and after the third watch, the two people were still fighting for the petty officials.

Zhou Xuan looked back, Nian Nujiao and Xiaoxiang both covered their mouths with their hands, sleepy, but Yang Xiaofeng was in good spirits, kneeling behind Zhou Xuan, her eyes were like water, clear and clear.

Zhou Xuan asked Nian Nujiao and Xiaoxiang to go to sleep first, and as soon as the second daughter went out, Xiaoxiang suddenly screamed: "Fire!" Uncle, there's a fire over there! ”

The four idiots reacted very quickly, and appeared beside Xiao Xiang in the blink of an eye from the side of chess, and Zhou Xuan also ran out, and saw a fire in the west building of Meixiang Xiaoyuan, the fire spread very quickly, and heard the panicked shouts of Chen Ji and the Sun brothers.

Zhou Xuan hurriedly said: "Fourth, go and save them, they live upstairs and may not be able to get down." ”

The four idiots nodded, took out a short knife from their waists and handed it to Zhou Xuan: "Master be careful, this fire is strange!" With that, he jumped down and ran towards the west building in Merlin.

Zhou Xuan looked left and right, Yang Xiaofeng, Nian Nujiao, Xiaoxiang, three weak women, and one Gu Liuquan, whose eyebrows were all white, were all powerless, only he Zhou Hou Ye still had two scattered hands, and immediately ordered them to stand still and not to run in a panic.

The Fenghua Military Mansion was in an uproar, and the government soldiers and government servants began to rush to this side to put out the fire, and Judge Fan shouted loudly from a distance: "Hou Ye Zhou-Hou Ye Zhou-"

Zhou Xuanying said: "Lord Fan, I'm fine, you go quickly-", suddenly the cold hairs on his whole body stood on end, and he felt that there was a huge danger approaching, so he immediately squatted down and knocked down the ancient Liuquan who was standing beside him.

I heard the sharp sound of breaking through the air, and a three-foot-long oolong iron spine arrow shot from a foot above Zhou Xuan's head, Yang Xiaofeng exclaimed, and the whole person slammed into the door frame as if he was being dragged by something.

The ground floor of the west building is a sea of fire, Chen Ji and the Sun brothers are trapped upstairs and can't come up, the four idiots fly up, carrying them from the upstairs to the open space downstairs, because of the concern for Zhou Xuan's safety, hurried back, in the plum forest heard the feather arrow breaking through the air of the sharp roar, this sound is very unusual, by no means an ordinary bow and arrow, it should be that kind of elm, people, generally hear the bowstring when it is too late to dodge.

The four idiots were shocked, rose from the merlin and flew in the direction of the bow and arrow from the treetops, if the arrow just now hit Zhou Xuan, it would definitely not be saved, this kind of arrow is too powerful, so he wants to catch the assassin who put the dark arrow, and he wants to cut it with a thousand knives.

The arrow was shot from outside the wall of the Fenghua Military Residence, and the four idiots stood on the wall, and outside the wall was Mochou Lake, and no one was found, but the arrow was clearly shot from this direction.

The four idiots shouted angrily: "What people." Get the hell out of here! ”

A full moon is in the sky, and Mochou Lake is silent

The fine waves are sparkling, reflecting the moonlight, like thousands of silver snakes swimming.

The four idiots didn't have time to search here, kicked their feet on the wall, and rushed towards the east building, he heard the sheep screaming just now, didn't hear Zhou Xuan's voice, could it have been an arrow through the throat?

The four idiots disappeared behind the wall. A wet human head emerged from the lake on the shore, with a bearded lion nose and a fierce eye, it was Li Kun's sharpshooter - Hawkeye Du Qilin.

Du Qilin climbed ashore with a five-foot bow in his hand. Shaking his head of the water, he knew that the arrow just now missed, the real archer, although the feather arrow was off the string. But there was also a magical feeling attached to the arrow, and the moment it hit the target, he could feel the sound of the arrow piercing through the flesh and stabbing the bone, but this time he didn't feel it.

On the east floor of Meixiang Xiaoyuan, Zhou Xuan saw Yang Xiaofeng hit the door frame backwards. Frightened, thinking that the sheep had been hit by an arrow, he got up to see her regardless of the danger. I saw the swarthy arrow go through the sleeve of the sheep's coat. The huge momentum took the sheep and fell backwards. The sound of "grabbing" was nailed to the door frame, and it was still three inches into the wood.

Yang Xiaofeng is still very calm. Shaking his head, he said, "Childe, I'm fine." ”

Zhou Xuan cut her sleeve with a short knife and saw that the arrow cluster passed against her forearm, rubbing a blood mark, and the red blood flowed down the snow-white arm.

The four idiots jumped up to the tall building at this time, and when they saw that Zhou Xuan was unharmed, they put down their hearts, glanced at Yang Xiao's injury, and said disapprerovingly: "A little bruise is nothing." ”

Zhou Xuan hurriedly bandaged Yang Xiaofeng, Xiaoxiang and Nian Nujiao went to help Gu Liuquan, Gu Liuquan groaned: "Alas, I'm afraid that the bones are broken." ”

Zhou Xuan pushed him too hard just now, and when Gu Liuquan fell to the ground, he supported it with his hand, and he could hear the sound of "click" and his arm bones breaking.

Zhou Xuan gently patted Yang Xiaoqi's pink face to show comfort, asked her to go to the room first, turned to look at Gu Liuquan, and apologized again and again when he saw that his right arm was broken.

Gu Liuquan said: "Master Hou is saving the old decay, this arrow is too scary!" ”

The four idiots took down the oolong iron spine arrow, looked at it repeatedly, and had palpitations.

Judge Fan rushed over at this time, and when he saw the dark arrow, his face changed, he thought it was a fire, but he didn't expect someone to harm Marquis Zhou.

Zhou Xuanxin said: "If I hadn't agreed to your shout, the person who released the dark arrow wouldn't know where I was!" ”

But Judge Fan was obviously unintentionally at fault, seeing that Meixiang Xiaoyuan was on fire, he was relieved that the Hou Ye was safe, and shouting was the most normal, and he happened to be caught by the assassins watching on the side.

Zhou Xuan ordered Gu Changshi to ask a doctor to come and graft Gu Liuquan's bones, and reapply the wound medicine to Yang Xiaofeng to bandage it, so as not to get the wound infected, it would be a pity if there was a scar on the arm like this.

Zhou Xuan and the four idiots went to the "Yangchun Baixue Hall" with Judge Fan to greet the Lin sisters, Jingyi Fairy and Lin Hanyun were already resting, and they were awakened by the shouting, and they heard that Meixiang Xiaoyuan was on fire, so they hurriedly got up and dressed.

Zhou Xuan didn't say anything to Jingyi Fairy and the others, which saved them from worrying.

Judge Fan urgently dispatched government soldiers to strengthen patrols, and there were originally 60 government soldiers in the Fenghua Military Residence, but at the beginning of the year, they brought another 100 naval troops from Jiangzhou, and they were immediately commanded by General Qi, the general of the naval army, and were divided into four teams and guarded on four sides.

Gu Changshi arranged for Chen Ji, the Sun brothers and their servants to live in another courtyard temporarily, and the west building of Meixiang Xiaoyuan could no longer be inhabited, so it burned down, but fortunately, this is an independent small building, and the fire will not spread to other places.

Zhou Xuan, Judge Fan, Gu Changshi, General Qi, and the four idiots discussed in the hall and unanimously determined that the culprit was Wei Bo, and Judge Fan said angrily: "Master Hou, the lower official will enter the palace with Lord Hou tomorrow to sue the royal complaint, and the land of Gyeonggi will actually set fire to kill people, this is not a rebellion and what is it!" ”

Zhou Xuan frowned and said: "The arson in the West Building must be an internal thief, deliberately causing chaos. ”

Judge Fan and Gu Changshi glanced at each other and nodded in unison.

Zhou Xuan suddenly remembered something, his face changed, and he asked the four idiots: "Fourth, did you see Laifu?" ”

The four idiots said: "I didn't see it, Laifu lives on the first floor, and he should be able to run out quickly when it catches fire." ”

Zhou Xuan was in a hurry, there was such a big incident, the loyal Laifu would definitely come to greet him, but he never saw him, something happened to Laifu?

Zhou Xuan and Judge Fan hurriedly returned to the east building of Meixiang Xiaoyuan with a team of government soldiers, the fire had been extinguished, and the small building burned black and collapsed in half.

Checking the people who originally lived in the East Building, Chen Ji, the Sun brothers and their slaves totaled twelve people, and there were no blessings!

Gu Changshi said: "Didn't Laifu sleep to death and didn't run out when the fire started?" ”

Zhou Xuan shook his head, although Laifu is not clever, but it is not dull like this!

The two soldiers risked the collapse of the building to get into the room where Laifu lived, but they didn't notice anyone inside.

According to Sun Zhan's servants, he also saw Laifu at night, and then went back to his room to sleep.

Judge Fan and Gu Changshi didn't know the benefits and disadvantages of Laifu's arrest, and said, "If it's Wei Bo's hand, what are they doing when they arrest a family member?" ”

Zhou Xuan looked at the four idiots, there were only three people who knew the cause of Wei Jue's death here, Zhou Xuan dared to kill but didn't dare to arrest them, they couldn't catch the four idiots, they could only catch Laifu.

Zhou Xuan said in a deep voice: "I must find out the thief, so that I can ask Wei Bo for someone, and Laifu must be saved." ”

Fenghua Military Mansion carried out a large inventory of personnel, in addition to Laifu, the rest of the government soldiers, government servants, servants, cooks a total of 210 people, one is not a lot, but it is not easy to find out which one or two thieves among these 210 people!

There are four gates in the Fenghua military residence, and each gate is guarded by two government soldiers at night, and the eight government soldiers guarding the gate are guarding the gate when the fire broke out, and they have not left without permission, and they have not seen anyone else enter or exit, of course, what they say is not necessarily credible.

Zhou Xuan pondered for a while, and urgently ordered Judge Fan to call a few soldiers brought by Lin Heishan from Jiangzhou, these people should be reliable, after arranging in the mansion hall, he ordered someone to gather sixty government soldiers to the front of the mansion hall, these sixty government soldiers are all Fenghua army commanders stationed in Jinling, every three years, next year is the rotation year, Zhou Xuan suspects that the thief is one of these sixty people.
