That night, at the house of Lao Cai Cai Zhixiong, a group of half-grown children were helping Cai Shanshan celebrate her birthday.

Cai Shanshan is not very high-profile, plus Li Xiangping and Zhao Daokai, she invited a total of 7 classmates, three men and four women, plus herself and Lao Cai and his wife, exactly 10 people had a meal together.

"Come, Xiangping, eat vegetables, eat vegetables, hehehe......"

During the meal, whether it was Lao Cai or his wife, they were quite enthusiastic about Li Xiangping, and they looked different.

Of course, this situation is also normal, this is not to say that Li Xiangping is particularly handsome, or that the two of them really regard Li Xiangping as a son-in-law or something. This is mainly because Li Xiangping is a traverser after all, and he usually can't see it, but if he sits with a group of half-grown children, he will always look a little different.

How to say it, in short, in the opinion of Lao Cai and his wife: Why is the child of Lao Li's family so calm, how can he be so mature in a group of half-grown children, and how did Lao Li teach this child......

Li Xiangping's behavior that is not like a child and the good relationship between the two families made Lao Cai and his wife look at him differently. Among them, especially Lao Cai Cai Zhixiong, because he is a super chess fan, because of this bonus, among the small guests invited by Cai Shanshan, he spent more than half of his time talking to Li Xiangping.

"Cheng Lanru has used chess sets, if Cheng Lanru has used them, then this gift is too precious, Shanshan, don't you thank Xiangping."

"Dad, who is Cheng Lanru?"

"A chess player in the Qing Dynasty of my country."

"Is he powerful? Is it as powerful as Commander Hu now? ”

Hearing his daughter ask such a question, Lao Cai smiled: "If you only talk about the level of chess, then this senior Cheng Lanru should not be Commander Hu's opponent, but this senior Cheng also has a unique feature, which is not comparable to Commander Hu." ”

"What's so unique?"

"This Cheng Lanru predecessor is not only a chess player, but also a Go player, this is his uniqueness, you must know that whether it is Go or chess, in our country is a long history, from ancient times to the present, these two chess games have also given birth to countless national players, but it is extremely rare to become a double national player, only two are recognized by everyone, and this Cheng Lanru predecessor is one of them."

"So, who is the other one Daddy?"

Lao Cai didn't reply to his daughter immediately, but asked Li Xiangping with a smile:

"Does Xiangping know who the other one is?"

Li Xiangping nodded: "The other one, that should be Mr. Dong Wenyuan of the Republic of China, right?" ”

Lao Cai laughed: "Hehe, that's right, it's him......."

For this topic, everyone has stopped here, mainly because of this Dong Wenyuan senior, to say that this Dong predecessor is indeed a genius, in the chess world, he is the "chess king of the four provinces" during the Republic of China, he played the most famous game of chess, but once in Xiangjiang, he fought against another national player in the chess world.

The national player is known as the "Chess King of the Seven Provinces" in the chess world, but after a competition, it was the "Chess King of the Four Provinces" who defeated the "Chess King of the Seven Provinces......

As for Go, this Dong predecessor is also a good player, after the founding of New China, this Dong predecessor was positioned as a professional third or fourth dan, and was the second grade figure in China at that time after "South Liu Guobei", and had entered the top six in the national individual competition.

It's just that it's more regrettable that because this senior Dong was born in the old society, he was contaminated with the bad habits of the old society, such as smoking opium, so in New China, people like him later became the object of transformation and even dictatorship, and his ranking in a certain competition was even canceled for some reason and was not officially recognized, and he himself died of poverty in the end. Considering that today is the birthday of a little girl, it is certainly not suitable to talk about too many related topics.

Since today's guests are minors, they don't drink alcohol, and our country's food culture is like this, as long as you don't drink, then any dinner usually doesn't last long.

Before 8 o'clock in the evening, dinner was over, and a group of middle school students were ready to transfer to karaoke.

"Hee-hee, your husband is good, he looks cool, you see he's still talking to your dad, Shanshan is going to urge him."

"you."

Cai Shanshan smiled and pushed her best friend who said this, and then really came to Li Xiangping:

"Li Xiangping, we went to sing, are you going?"

"Huh? Singing? I.... I can't sing, so I'm not going. ”

Li Xiangping really doesn't want to go, of course he doesn't know how to karaoke, but think about a person with a mental age of 31 and a group of thirteen or fourteen-year-old half-grown children going to karaoke?

"Hmph, don't give face, do you?" 13-year-old Cai Shanshan glared at Li Xiangping angrily.

Even Lao Cai said: "Xiangping go, you just came to the capital not long ago, it's a good thing to play with your classmates and be familiar, by the way, you don't want to go because what's the matter, right?" ”

Li Xiangping took the opportunity to say that he wanted to see Lao Nie:

"Uncle Cai, you know, I played a few games of chess with Teacher Nie online yesterday......"

"Yes, yes, yes."

Lao Cai was energetic when he mentioned this: "I have been watching the game since you and Lao Nie played yesterday, it was really enjoyable to watch, you and Lao Nie fought 5 games, and in the end you won 3-2, right?" But although you won, but the golden body of "Jueyi" can be regarded as broken by Lao Nie, we were all praising Lao Nie yesterday, saying that he returned to the top yesterday, and the two games he won were unexpectedly less, haha. ”

"That's right, I can only win by picking up spoons now, so I want to ......."

After Li Xiangping made it clear that he wanted to visit Lao Nie and ask him for advice on the layout problem, Lao Cai became energetic:

"So? Good! Hehe, okay, I'll call Lao Nie now. ”

After saying this, Lao Cai really immediately dialed Lao Nie's phone, and after the phone was connected, Lao Cai went outside to talk.

After a while, Lao Cai Le came back:

"I've already told Lao Nie that he went to the field to participate in the competition today, and when he comes back in a few days, I will lead you to visit."

"Competitions? What other games are there at this time? Teacher Tut Nie is really amazing, he is going to compete today, and he practiced with me so late yesterday. ”

Lao Cai smiled: "Hehe is not an official competition, that kind of performance invitational tournament, and said that it is said to be in the field, in fact, it is in Tongzhou, strictly speaking, it has not been out of the capital territory, three days, Lao Nie said that he will be there for three days, I have made an appointment with him, and as soon as he comes back, we will go to his dojo to find him immediately." ”

"Okay, thank you, Uncle Cai."

In order to express his gratitude to Lao Cai, Li Xiangping finally accompanied a group of half-grown children to sing K, and in the next few days, Li Xiangping continued to participate in the "Online Go League" with Lao Shi.

Li Xiangping's next main goal is Ma Xiaofei, the first world champion in the Chinese chess world, but unfortunately in the game, Li Xiangping doesn't know if he has met Ma Xiaofei, because according to Li Xiangping's memory, Ma Xiaofei used the vest of "Qiantang Gang * White Paper Fan" to participate in this competition.

At the time of the game, the "Beggar Gang" and the "Qiantang Gang" met, and Li Xiangping also played, but Li Xiangping did not see the "white paper fan" during the game, his opponent was a guy named "Qiantang Gang * Dwarf Winter Melon", this person was surprisingly powerful, he cut Lao Shi to the ground in the game, and was the only chess player who won Shi Da Chess in this game in addition to Lao Nie, Li Xiangping did not know where this was sacred.

Three days passed quickly, and on this day, Li Xiangping received a call from Lao Cai, saying that Lao Nie had returned, and asked Li Xiangping to go over immediately.

"Okay, Brother Ding'an, let's go visit this person now, I hope this person can be like Liang Weijin's predecessors, the one who can make you have an epiphany again."
