Chapter Forty-Three: The Guest of Rotten Keshan
Xintianyou smiled, slowed down and walked over, knowing that it must be a pass.
It's a bit like when he was in the ditch, Zhou Rong couldn't judge whether he was a Scient, so he proposed to try the next game of chess. Obviously, your performance at this level will affect what measures the "Holy Land" will take in the next stage. Is it open doors to welcome? Or set up a killing game.
Civilization was destroyed, and the art of chess was lost. The champion of a small country is at most equivalent to the village tyrant 10,000 years ago. Not all of the Courier's disciples are good at chess, but those who are ahead of their time are certainly from his disciples.
However, those who are skilled in chess in the Taoist sect are often only used as an aid to self-cultivation, without intensive study and lack of profound inheritance. Just imagine, once you become obsessed with becoming a chess basket, what else can you practice?
When he got closer, Xintianyou made a gesture and said:
"If you want to visit the Rotten Ke Mountain, the cave is dyed with peach blossoms in spring...... Uncle, good Yaxing. ”
The old man has a wide robe and large sleeves, wears a small crown on his head, and dresses up as a standard Hanfu. He was about fifty or sixty years old, and his gray beard was neatly combed. Hearing this, he got up and replied:
"Barren mountains and mountains, sparsely populated, I have to rely on chess to pass the time. Xiaoyou doesn't look like a local, where are you going? ”
"I heard that Shangri-La is a paradise where there are wise saints with great powers, and I want to visit them. Which of the three roads in front of you should be taken? ”
"The legend is false, and I'm afraid Xiaoyou will be disappointed. The road is in front of you, and you can't run away. It's still early, why don't you and I talk about a game first? ”
Xintianyou smiled and sat down neatly.
The boy spread out a paper bag, pried open a small piece of black tea cake, poured it into the teapot, and lightly fanned the fire. After the water boils, the cup is scalded first, and then the tea is poured in, and the rich aroma is immediately filled.
The tea soup is clear, brown and red with golden yellow, like a jewel.
"Please."
The two of them talked for a while, but they didn't ask for the information they wanted. The old man gestured with both hands and smiled:
"This tea cake is very old, and it is a gift from the old man. Unlike fresh green tea, the longer it is stored, the more mellow it becomes...... Smell the fragrance and then turn it in your mouth. Different parts are not the same in terms of sensitivity to temperature and taste, so that you can appreciate the richness of the tea soup. Swallowing it in one gulp is called a cow drink, and it destroys the heavens. Hahaha, because the intestines can't feel the taste. ”
Xin Tianyou smiled slightly, and muttered in his heart, don't be a piece of 10,000-year-old black tea brought out by the master. Looking at the black appearance, the amino acids, tea polyphenols, etc. in the tea are absolutely carbonized.
didn't say anything at the moment, took a sip, and praised:
"Wonderful, swallowing this tea, even my body feels a lot more relaxed. Once the bitterness is savored, it reveals a fragrant and sweet fragrance. ”
The old man smiled:
"Xiaoyou is a person who knows the goods, and tasting tea is like tasting life. Although the game is small, it can be seen that a person is bold and wise, please. ”
After the two guessed first, Xintianyou picked up a sunspot. "Smack" slapped to the most central intersection of the chessboard, the position of Tianyuan.
Damn, isn't this blatant contempt and bullying? The young man standing beside the old man glared angrily.
Go is played in 19 ways to control the number of turf winners and losers. But the four sides are moats, and it is impossible to fall outside the plate. Therefore, the opening game must first occupy the corner, and then occupy the edge, so that the efficiency is the highest.
The falling son occupies the corner and only needs to defend on two sides, and the falling son occupies the side, and only needs to defend three sides. And the son is in the center, embattled, and there is nothing to be gained. A son points Tianyuan, often only appears in the situation where the master bullies the low, so what if you make a move?
This really wronged Xintianyou.
He knew very well that the chess game was just trying to figure out whether he had a connection with the civilization of 10,000 years ago, and it didn't matter if he won or lost.
If Daomen knew that the second base of the Scientology Party was in Shangri-La, he would never have sent a real person from Erlengzi to rush in. You must know that in the battle of Sun City that year, there were not too many real people who fell, and Wu Yang was the same as ants.
In this case, Xintianyou can not expose the hole cards. I have always felt that only Tian Yuan is unique in the chessboard, as if Tian Xuan in the Big Dipper, echoing up and down, left and right, so let's give it a try today.
The old man was stunned, staring at the chessboard and blinking. After a long time, he raised his head and said with a wry smile:
"Little friends are really, whimsical...... Have the mind to swallow all things in the universe. As the saying goes, the golden horn and silver edge grass belly. Yizi Zhen Tianyuan, only the top masters dare to go down like this, the old man has never seen it. ”
After speaking, he cautiously put on a small eye.
The sunspot is agate, and the white is jade, which is moisturizing and cool. The crisp sound of the falling seeds, the touch between the fingers, is pleasant.
Gradually, Xintianyou began to forget about things.
The black and white chess pieces in front of him are like stars in the sky, flickering and changing. It is like a battle flag hunting, thousands of soldiers are roaring, arrayed, and the murderous spirit is soaring into the sky.
Although I haven't played Go for 12 years, I have grown from a child to a young man, regardless of calculation, judgment, and overall vision...... None of them are the same. If you meet yourself back then, you will definitely be able to kill him to throw away his armor and scream.
The old man was also completely immersed in the chess game, and his expression was solemn. sometimes scratching his head and babbling; From time to time, he tapped on the table and looked left and right.
The young man stood expressionlessly, as if he was not looking.
The chess game entered the middle game, and the blacks and whites did not have too much contact, and each circumference was empty, and there was not even a single dead child.
The black chess pieces are beautifully shaped, like a dragon, and they are natural.
Most of White's base is on the edge of the corner, and the shape is restrained. Although it is very solid, the development potential is not large. The real space is a little ahead, but the general trend is a lot behind, and the prospect is worrying.
The young man was silent and refilled the tea for the two, obviously knowing chess, and his face was worried.
The old man pondered for a while, and began to rely on his base to invade from the edge and advance into the Central Plains.
A small battle of more than a dozen moves began, and white successfully swallowed three black pieces, and forcibly pulled out a piece of fat from his abdomen. However, it knocked black into a solid one. I saw that the black potential was boundless, and although the spacing between the chess pieces was large, it was faintly murderous, revealing the momentum of dominating the world.
He understood that if he continued to disappear, black's position would be closed, and white would have no hope at all.
After a long test for more than ten minutes, a white child was resolutely thrown into the black sky. It was like a bell ringing in the middle of the night, breaking the silence.
Xintianyou didn't even want to think about it, and "snapped" the head of the town, cutting off its contact with the periphery. The attitude is very clear, you are harassing on the periphery, I will let a little. If you dare to rush in, you must destroy it.
Twisting, slashing, and chasing, the center of the chessboard is in chaos.
White finally abandoned two small tails in a row and broke out of the encirclement. But I saw a sunspot above Tianyuan from afar, as if the generals of the two armies were waiting for you to fight.
Looking around again, although the small encirclement has broken away, the large encirclement has become like an iron bucket. The only chance of life is to pounce fiercely, swallow the Tianyuan sunspot that is in the way, and work on the spot.
That's an impossible task.
People can attack, retreat can defend, friendly troops are on the side, why let you eat them?
What at first seemed like a waste of the opening game now killed White's only chance of life.
After a long time, the old man put two white pieces on the table to show that he had admitted defeat. The head was still leaning over the chessboard, and he looked at it unwillingly, as if the whole person was going to get into it.
The boy's eyes widened in surprise and looked dejected. His gaze kept switching between the chessboard and the scholar's face, as if he wanted to see a flower.
The old man raised his head and sighed:
"Childe's chess skills are like a dragon outside the sky, and the old man is convinced. In the opening stage, I can also see that there is a shadow of the ancient score in your moves, which is decent. But the further back it goes, the more chaotic the situation becomes, and the moves are sharp and interlocking, which makes people breathless. May I ask this sub-town Tianyuan, has it ever been recorded in the spectrum? ”
Xintianyou smiled:
"There are indeed a few ancient books in the house, but there is no means to point Tianyuan. I just think that Luozi can't get any benefits from the central government for the time being, but in the later battles, it can echo the Quartet, and it won't be a loss. ”
The old man pondered for a while, and said:
"In the final analysis, it is still a battle between profit and power, and the transformation of power and profit. We ordinary people can't see so far-reaching. Childe, please wait. ”
After speaking, he didn't explain, and walked towards the slope with the young man. A hundred paces away on the mountainside, there is a house in the shade of trees.
Xintianyou didn't care, slowly sipped the tea, and went with him. The ears were not idle, and the sound disappeared completely when they heard them pass through several doors.
Oh, there was a soundproof chamber in that house, and I'm afraid there was a radio station to communicate with the Holy Land. The old man lost so badly, he still can't prove anything, and he must ask for instructions.
After a cup of tea, the old man came back with the young man. Solemnly shook it and said:
"Childe, there is a friend who wants to fight you."
Xintian amusement and said:
"Okay, please let him out."
The old man shook his head and said:
"This friend has something unspeakable and can't show up. The old man walked in the air, and I hope the son will forgive me. ”
