Chapter 252: This is to avoid war

A few people, you and I said it word by word, and the matter of Chen Zhi's long sleep was very interesting, and Zhang Xiao, Wang Qi and others were amazed. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info

Wang Qi was surprised: "So, after Mr. Chen falls asleep, can he still study?" ”

"That's right, otherwise how can it be solved?" Liu Gang smiled and glanced at Lu Ying, Tao Ya and the others, "We have all discussed it a long time ago, that's why I said that Brother Chen is learning in a dream!" ”

Zhang smiled and stroked his beard and said: "Sure enough, it is a strange thing, and I have time to ask for advice." ”

The more these people talked, the more they felt that it was an issue that could be talked about more.

They didn't know that when a few people were talking about Chen Zhi, there was also a group of people talking, but where this group of people were, it was Wang Dao's mansion.

Director Wang has already set off to the west to explore the national capital Luoyang, and it is his cousin Wang Ling who comes forward to entertain everyone.

This Wang Ling sits in the lobby, surrounded by paintings and calligraphy hanging on the walls, if you savor carefully, each piece is priceless, and it is a fine product that has been inherited at a glance.

However, none of the people in this room had the heart to appreciate the work, but sat together, looking at several chessboards, and frowned one by one.

There were a dozen people in the room, excluding the maids, servants, and Wang Ling, and there were nine people, most of whom were high-crowned and well-known, but they all lost a little ethereal, and three of them were mentioning Chen Zhi.

"If Chen Zhi really has the ability to break Jiang Yi's chess game in two days, why don't you want to come over to understand the treasures left by the Huns? Is it because I am worried that I will not be able to break it and ruin my reputation? ”

The man who spoke looked to be in his forties, with a long beard and eyes as thin as slits.

This person's name is Ma Tu, is the Guan Longshi clan origin, famous for chess, some time ago in Luoyang to visit friends, heard the news of Xingtan on the road, so to the east, halfway to know the news of the Wang family Wenhui, then came to join in the fun, did not expect, when he arrived, only to know the news of the little prince of the Huns, suddenly became a difficult game to ride a tiger -

Ma Tu has a mediocre reputation in learning, and he can become famous by relying on chess skills, and when he arrives here, he listens to the record of the little prince of the Huns, and immediately knows that he is powerful, but there is no way to retreat, as long as he retreats, his reputation is ruined, and he can only take the request of the Wang family head-on.

Except for Ma Tu, many of the other people present were in this situation, and they all had to agree.

In this case, when they knew about Chen Zhi and knew that Chen Zhi was obviously invited, but they didn't want to come over to break this game, they just agreed to play in the past, and their hearts were suddenly unbalanced.

Right now, nine people gathered here, just to break the chess game, but the progress was slow, and he was anxious, and then thinking of the rumors about Chen Zhi, Ma Tu couldn't help but say it.

Among the nine people, six were invited before Chen Zhi, and four were after Chen Zhi, but only Chen Zhi did not come, which naturally aroused criticism.

Sure enough, as soon as Matu opened his mouth, someone next to him answered-

"I heard that this person has either eaten or slept in the past few days, how happy he is, how can he be a little anxious, and I don't know if the Wang family has sent him an invitation."

The person who spoke, the skeleton is quite large, but the body is thin, the clothes on the body, it seems that the inside is empty, but his voice is sonorous and powerful, his name is Sun Qian, but also Xuzhou people, good at counting and hand talk, also has achievements in the scriptures, in Xuzhou is a well-known old celebrity.

However, listening to Sun Qian's tone, he obviously didn't have a good impression of Chen Zhi, who was also a fellow villager in Xuzhou, but had a little more hostility and a little mockery.

When Sun Qian's voice fell, Wang Ling hurriedly said: "Everyone, Mr. Chen's situation is different after all, whether he came here to study, or was invited by the Zuo family, there are some restrictions, when he has to go to Xingtan to challenge, Mr. Chen will definitely go with him, and then he will rely on you to help each other, and my Wang family will not forget your help." ”

It's okay if he doesn't say it, but when he says it, some people are dissatisfied.

"What a big shelf!"

The person who spoke this time was not young, with a long beard, half-white hair, a square face, not angry and arrogant, and his surname was Cao Mingkuang.

This Cao Kuang also has a background, his own family is not obvious, but the ancestor is said to be a student of Zheng Xuan, who is a Confucian master in the late Eastern Han Dynasty.

However, Cao Kuang's ancestor is obviously not the top disciple of Zheng Xuanmen, but his descendants are quite studious, when he was young, he studied under many people, although he was limited by talent, there was no great achievement, but his reputation came out, and now he is older, and he is obsessed with the way of black and white, and he has improved greatly in chess skills.

Such a person, of course, is not accustomed to Chen Zhi's behavior, heard others talk, and immediately said bluntly: "This Chen Zhi, I have heard a little, there is a suspicion of grandstanding, in the end, I don't see him and others have a game of game, just by breaking the game to spread his reputation, what is his chess skills, no one has seen it at all, I heard that even Jiang Yi, has never played against Chen Zhi, such a person, the Wang family also invited him, itself is a little unwise." ”

After all, he is old, Cao Kuang's opening is quite a bit afraid of offending people, and he looks at Wang Ling as he speaks, looking like he wants to teach life experience.

Wang Ling nodded with a wry smile, it was hard to refute, and it was not easy to admit that this matter was decided by Wang Dao, how could he change it?

However, as soon as Cao Kuang said, Sun Jian also nodded and said: "That's right, thinking about it like this, Chen Zhi doesn't come to break the game, it can also be explained, which of us here has not been addicted to chess for many years?" If you talk about qualifications, it is much deeper than Jiang Yi, he Jiang Yi used to say that he hid his chess skills, but as soon as he came out, he was defeated by foreign people, and this chess skill is limited. ”

But Ma Tu shook his head and said: "That's not right, at that time, although I didn't watch the game with my own eyes, but I heard the senior brother talk about it afterwards, he admired Jiang Yi's chess skills very much, if Chen Zhi can really break Jiang Yi's chess game, that is capable, but breaking the game and the game are different after all, and if he is good at breaking the game, then he should come over at this time, and participate with us, so that he can play his strengths!" ”

"I'm afraid I'm worried that I'm showing my feet in front of us." Sun Jian still maliciously speculated, "I heard that he has been sleepy recently, and I don't know why, even if he doesn't come to break the game, he should always be ready for the future game, why don't you see any movement?" I've read Chen Zhi's "Shi Shuo", it's a good article, but he's a teacher who writes articles, so why bother to mix it up with chess things? I looked at him, maybe he was angry for a while, and he responded, but now he is a little sober and knows that he has avoided war. ”

His words made the people present fall into deep thought, and obviously these people couldn't figure out why Chen Zhi acted like this.

Only Wang Ling smiled bitterly, but it was inconvenient to explain.

However, there was also one person in the crowd who ignored the comments of others and just concentrated on the chessboard in front of him.

Of course, in Linyi City, there are actually a lot of people who have Sun Qian's thoughts, and when night comes, there are two people with similar thoughts who meet Chen Zhi in the restaurant.

"Mr. Chen, I've heard of your name a long time ago."

The man who spoke was a solemn man, who sat upright with his waist straight.

This person is Gao He, who was the first Middle-earth chess master to be defeated under the hands of the Xiongnu prince, after him, Liu Yunyan won consecutive battles, with three games and two wins, and successively defeated many middle-earth chess masters, and shocked Linyi.

There is another person on the side of the high river, dressed plainly, with an indifferent expression and a soft expression, looking at Chen Zhi, this person's name is Tang Qi, and he was also defeated at the hands of the little prince of the Huns, and he is Jiang Yi's friend, who wrote a letter for help to Jiang Yi, and through various channels, he knew Chen Zhi's deeds.

However, after Chen Zhi arrived in Linyi, what he did made Tang Qi puzzled and faintly disappointed, and the two of them were criticized a lot for losing chess, so they closed the door, even if they learned of Chen Zhi's invitation, they didn't immediately agree, it was Zuo Yuan who came to the door several times before he moved.

After Chen Zhi and the two of them saluted, he went straight to the point and talked directly about the topic: "It's quite presumptuous to invite the two of you over this time, but it is related to the Xiongnu prince." ”

Gao He nodded and said, "I also expected this, but what does Chen Jun want to ask?" ”

Chen Zhi was about to speak, but Tang Qi suddenly said, "Before Chen Jun asked, I had a few questions I wanted to ask. ”

"Tang Jun, please speak."

A servant brought the brewed tea, and he took a sip from the teacup.

Tang Qi asked: "I heard that Your Excellency has the intention to play against Liu Yunyan, but you don't go to break the game first, I don't know why, the chess game is left by Liu Yunyan, it must contain his own chess way, and after some understanding, maybe you can be familiar with the virtual and real, and you can have fewer accidents when you play the game, Chen Jun can know that many people in the city say that the reason why you don't break the game is that you don't live up to the name, and you are afraid of exposing your chess skills and avoiding fighting." ”

He said it so directly that Gao He had to look sideways.

Chen Zhi smiled and said: "If you really avoid and don't fight, how can you go to Liu Yunyan to play against you?" In fact, the reason why I didn't break the game is also related to the matter of asking the two of you. ”

"Oh? I would like to hear about it. ”

Gao He and Tang Qi were surprised when they heard this.

Chen Zhi put down the teacup and said neatly: "If what I expected is not bad, before Gao Jun and Liu Yunyan played against each other, he must have underestimated the enemy, but I'm afraid it's not that you deliberately underestimate the enemy, but what Liu Yunyan did, it was easy to be looked down upon." ”

Gao He was stunned when he heard this, and then nodded: "Yes, when I first saw this person, he was flying and domineering, just like a gentleman, which is very in line with the impression of the Hu nobles in my heart, and I unconsciously looked down on it." ”

Chen Zhi then said: "That's right, in addition, I heard that the game between Your Excellency and him is not an ordinary battle, but more like an occasional encounter, because something is used as an introduction, and then it develops into a chess game." ”

Gao He nodded and said: "Yes, Liu Yunyan and I met in a restaurant, because of the conflict between his subordinates, he insulted Middle-earth with an arrogant attitude, I said a few words, and he proposed a hand talk, alas, I didn't expect ......" Later, he shook his head slightly.

When Tang Qi on the side heard this, his expression changed slightly, and he looked at Chen Zhi.

"Tang Jun understands a little," Chen Zhi stretched out his finger and tapped lightly on the table, "It can be seen that this trick of Liu Yunyan to win is not only in the chessboard, but also outside the board, which is the key to his successive victories!" ”
