The two chess-solving women, seeing the middle-aged man, hurriedly folded their hands in front of them, and greeted them crisply: "Lord!" ”

The two chess-solving women called the middle-aged man to be the master, and the crowd of onlookers was in an uproar. Many people couldn't help but look at the middle-aged man from head to toe.

When Liu Wei decided to rebuild Luoyang, the land of this Lingyun Tower was bought. In the entire Luoyang City, the construction of houses cost copper money transferred by Liu Wei from Hedong. Only Lingyun Tower, the main family has not received a penny of copper coins from the Luoyang Palace, and when the buildings in the city are still under intense construction, Lingyun Tower has risen from the ground.

Wooden buildings are most afraid of termite gnawing, and the wood used in Lingyun Tower is smoked sandalwood. Not to mention the process, just this sandalwood, such a huge project, is not something that ordinary businessmen can do.

The reason why people come and go here is that business is very hot. A large part of the reason is that because Lingyun Tower was built faster than other places, it seized the jackpot of the catering and entertainment industry after the reconstruction of Luoyang City.

In particular, the owner of this place seems to be very good at management. A three-story wooden building, under his operation, actually includes the spring and white snow and the people of Xialiba. The inhabitants of the city, whether high or low, can find a place in this small building.

The most attractive thing about Lingyun Tower is not only its delicious food and wine, but also the very good academic atmosphere here.

Although there are some dancers and singers on the second floor, which makes the atmosphere a little muddy, the third floor is absolutely clean and clean. On the third floor, guests can only compete with each other. Piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, eclectic, and even sometimes the building will deliberately organize guests to discuss current affairs. However, at this level, there are no dancing girls and singers. Some prodigals, although they have long been interested in playing on the third floor, are always in a situation of looking up to the door because the atmosphere is quite depressing for them.

In such a place, in the past, the owner was like a moon shadow in the fog, and everyone who came here knew that there was a great master behind Lingyun Tower, but they didn't know what its owner looked like and how old he was.

As soon as Yuan Xi appeared, he brought out how Lingyun Tower, the owner whose identity has always been mysterious, did not surprise the onlookers.

Swinging his hand at the two chess-solving women, the middle-aged man clenched his fists with both hands and said to Yuan Xi and the person who wanted to play against Yuan Xi: "The way of the game is to plan and plan, just like the army of the same army to fight and govern the world. The one who is blogger is just a word. Wouldn't it be a bit child's play for two gentlemen to play fast chess and drop chess with three fingers? ”

"Mr. also said that the game is just a word! It is like marching to war and ruling the world. This is the avenue, and Mr. Lai must be proficient in the art of gambling! Receive the teachings in Xiagan! As soon as the middle-aged man's words fell, Yuan Xi gave him a return salute with his fists and said to him: "But Mr. only knows one thing, but he doesn't know the other." ”

"Oh?" After listening to Yuan Xi's words, a faint smile appeared on the corner of the Lingyun Tower's mouth, and he asked Yuan Xi: "Forgive me for my shallow knowledge, please ask sir, what is the second way of the game?" ”

"It's good to march to fight, govern the world, follow the road, and act step by step!" Yuan Xi was not polite to the master of the Lingyun Tower, and when the other party's voice fell, he said: "I just don't know if Mr. can remember the Zhengqi technique described in Sun Wu's Art of War?" ”

"Rapid chess is thaumaturgy?" As soon as Yuan Xi's words were finished, the master of Lingyun Tower looked at him from head to toe with a hint of surprise on his face, and asked him, "I just don't know what kind of strange method this is?" ”

"Qi Nai is unexpected!" Yuan Xi smiled slightly, looked around at the crowd of onlookers, and then said to the master of Lingyun Tower: "If you are surprised, you must be fast!" If you govern the world and march to war, they are all fought steadily and steadily, and the routine is already clear, how can you win by surprise? Often on the battlefield, the main soldier is the key to luring the enemy, and the key to victory in the direction of the surprise soldier! ”

"In this case, it is a lie!" Brushing the beard on his chin with one hand, the master of Lingyun Mansion lowered his head and groaned, with an indifferent smile on the corner of his mouth, and said to Yuan Xi: "I am willing to be the proof of the game between the two gentlemen, but I don't know what the two gentlemen think?" ”

"That's good!" This time, without waiting for Yuan Xi to speak, the person who was going to play against Yuan Xi said: "The people in this building, only the main family can do this justice......"

Smiling slightly at the person who spoke, the master of Lingyun Tower ignored the arrogance implied in his words, and his eyes wandered around the faces of the onlookers, and finally fell on Liu Wei's face.

"This son, I wonder if I can do justice to these two gentlemen with me?" Staring at Liu Wei for a while, the master of Lingyun Mansion walked towards him, and when he got closer, he arched at Liu Wei with his fists and asked Liu Wei.

Liu Bian, who was waiting to see the excitement, obviously didn't expect this scene to happen, when the owner of Lingyun Mansion hugged his fist and asked him if he could do justice for Yuan Xi and the two of them together, Liu Wei was stunned, and raised his hand to point to the tip of his nose in some astonishment, and asked the master of Lingyun Tower: "Sir, are you talking to me?" ”

"Exactly!" The master of Lingyun Mansion put down his fist-clasping hands, always with that indifferent smile on his face, but his eyes did not take his eyes off Liu Wei's face for a moment.

"Anyway, it's just a finger up, just do it!" After getting an exact reply, Liu Wei nodded his head and said to the master of Lingyun Tower: "Thank you for your love, if you don't do it in the future, I am afraid that you will lose your husband's good intentions." ”

Nodding slowly towards Liu Wei, the master of Lingyun Pavilion didn't say anything more, turned around and made a gesture of invitation to Yuan Xi and the other person and said, "Two please!" ”

"Please!" Yuan Xi and the other person first clasped their fists and arched towards the master of Lingyun Pavilion and Liu Wei, and then bowed to each other again, and then sat down on both sides of the low table.

The two sat down, and the two women standing next to the large chessboard also held wooden forks, folded their hands in front of them, and looked sideways at the chessboard on the low table.

"Please choose a son!" After Yuan Xi and the man sat down, the master of Lingyun Pavilion made a gesture of invitation to them again.

Standing beside the master of Lingyun Pavilion, he watched Yuan Xi and the other person choose black and white.

Yuan Xi's luck didn't seem to be too good, and he chose the white side of the back hand. However, he didn't pay too much attention to this, and after choosing the chess pieces, he made a gesture of invitation to the other party holding the sunspot, and said with a smile on the corner of his mouth: "Your Excellency, please." ”

"In this way, there will be no pushing!" The other party arched his hand towards Yuan Xi, pinched out a black spot from the chess box, and pressed it on the chessboard.

"Black Tianyuan!" As soon as the chess pieces were settled, a woman standing next to the big chessboard explained a sentence to everyone in a sweet voice, and then picked up a chess piece with a wooden fork and hung it on the big chessboard.

The master of Lingyun Pavilion stood beside Yuan Xi, and when the opponent's chess pieces fell, he raised his hand, raised three fingers, and curled his fingers one by one.

When he was about to curl up his third finger, Yuan Xi finally landed.

However, Yuan Xi did not land the chess pieces next to the opponent's chess pieces as Liu Wei imagined, but occupied a Tianyuan in another corner.

Looking at Yuan Xi's fallen chess pieces, the master of Lingyun Pavilion was stunned for a moment, but he didn't say anything, just silently watched the chess game.

Standing beside Yuan Xi, the master of Lingyun Pavilion calculated the time for him, and Liu Wei wanted to time the other person.

Both of them have some attainments in chess, at first they occupied each other's own area, and gradually advanced to the center of the chessboard, without entanglement with each other. Just when the chess pieces of the two sides were getting closer and closer, Yuan Xi suddenly landed a piece in the opponent's area.

This move was obviously out of the opponent's expectations, and hurriedly fell to parry, but in this way, the black chess that originally had the advantage of the first move gradually fell behind, and Yuan Xi then killed, gradually encroaching, and it didn't take long to force the opponent into a desperate situation.

The person who was playing against Yuan Xi saw that he was in decline, and fine beads of sweat oozed from his forehead.

From the beginning of the game to Yuan Xi's occupation, the two took the initiative to attack, but it was less than a stick of incense. After a few more drops, the man who was kneeling opposite Yuan Xi suddenly got up, clasped his fists with both hands, bowed deeply to Yuan Xi, and said to Yuan Xi: "Childe has superb chess skills, and he lost in the game!" ”

"Take!" Since the other party had already admitted defeat, Yuan Xi also stood up, clasped his fists with both hands, arched at him, and said a humble word to him, and then said nothing.

"Why don't you solve the chess game?" The outcome had been decided, and the master of Lingyun Pavilion had a smile on his face, and he made a gesture of invitation to Yuan Xi and said, "Such a wonderful chess game, if you don't understand it, wouldn't it be a big pity." ”

On the chessboard, blacks and whites crisscross the board. The space occupied by each other is not much different, and Liu Wei really can't see at a glance where the other party has lost.

The crowd of onlookers looked at the big chessboard erected, and most of them were stunned, obviously understanding why.

"There's nothing to understand!" Arching towards the master of Lingyun Pavilion, Yuan Xi said to him: "It's nothing more than taking one side and striking first." ”

"Be concise and concise, and break through the mystery in one word!" Before Yuan Xi's words fell, the master of Lingyun Pavilion made a gesture of invitation to him and said, "I have the heart to get acquainted with Your Excellency, I wonder if I can invite Your Excellency to have a few drinks?" ”

"It's better to be respectful than to obey!" When the owner of Lingyun Pavilion first appeared, from the expressions on the faces of the onlookers, Yuan Xi could already see that this person was extraordinary, the other party intended to invite, how could he refuse, so he also made a gesture of invitation to the other party and accepted the invitation.

"This son-in-law ......" got Yuan Xi's promise, and the master of Lingyun Pavilion turned his face to Liu Wei and said to him: "Thanks to the help of Gongzi, I wonder if Gongzi can accompany him?" ”

When the master of Lingyun Pavilion said the word "accompaniment", he stood not far away, looking around, and Deng Zhan, who was protecting Liu Wei, wrinkled his brows slightly.

In Deng Zhan's view, Liu Wei is the lord of Luoyang, how can he accompany a businessman and a scholar who does not know his origin. The words of the master of Lingyun Pavilion are really too big.

However, when Liu Wei came here, he hid his identity, and no one knew that he was the king of Luoyang, and he didn't complain that the master of Lingyun Pavilion would say such a thing.

Sure enough, as soon as the invitation of the master of Lingyun Pavilion was spoken, Liu Wei smiled slightly, hugged his fist and arched his hand at him and said, "Your Excellency should have gone to carry love, but there are still two friends in the private room, so I won't disturb the two Yaxing." ”

Liu Wei replied like this, obviously not out of the Lingyun Pavilion master's expectations, only to see the Lingyun Pavilion master with a smile on the corner of his mouth, he bowed back to him and said, "Your Excellency has a friend, so you don't force it." Today, you are in Lingyun Pavilion to meet your needs, and you will do it from below! ”

"Thank you for that!" The master of Lingyun Pavilion said that he would be the host, and Liu Wei did not shirk, but just hugged his fists and responded, and then glanced at Deng Zhan and led Deng Zhan to the private room.
