Liu Xiu went out early in the morning, and went to Mr. Zhao Wangshan to play chess with Go, and he estimated that the other party's mood had calmed down after a few days.

has been busy for so many days and treated so many patients, by going to Zhao Wangshan to play chess, Liu Xiu also gave himself a day off by the way, combining work and rest, or that sentence, practicing medicine and treating diseases is Liu Xiu's interest, not career and work, there is no need to limit yourself to death, how happy to come.

In the morning, when Liu Xiu was still eating, Su Xiaoxiao came again, which made him cry and laugh a little, knowing that the girl was greedy and came to eat again.

Liu Xiu is not disgusted by this kind of thing, after all, he often did this in his rural hometown when he was a child, and the whole village was wandering around with a bowl, and whoever had delicious food would rub two chopsticks.

To be honest, Su Xiaoxiao, this girl is quite cute, although she often comes to rub food these days, but she doesn't eat in vain, she will always do something to repay her, she can't stop it, you persuade her to be anxious with you.

Today, Su Xiaoxiao took the initiative to help clean the yard after dinner, and Liu Xiu also let her go, young people, it's good to exercise more, you should be full of vitality, well, it's definitely not because Liu Xiu is lazy......

With the Go game that day, Liu Xiu paced towards Zhao Wangshan's residence, leaving a series of footprints in the creaking sound on the snow along the way.

In the cold winter, heavy snow covers everything, the sky and the earth are vast, and the birds and branches are chirping and foraging for food.

Zhao Wangshan's residence Liu Xiu knows, I still remember that I went to the door to learn literacy, but Zhao Wangshan was regarded as a liar and couldn't even enter the door, every time I thought of that Liu Xiu couldn't cry or laugh, he really didn't know the words of this world at that time.

The trees on the side of the road were frozen by thick ice and snow, the ice on the eaves was crystal clear, and the old bamboo was pressed to the ground and never broken.

didn't knock on the door for the first time, but Liu Xiu stopped and listened quietly, not eavesdropping on Zhao Wangshan's conversation, but the sound of the piano coming from the courtyard.

The sound of the guqin is long and long, listening to the sound of the qin, Liu Xiu's eyes seem to show the scenery of the Cangshan Muri River calmly going eastward, without the sadness of the twilight, but giving people a profound calm after the precipitation of time.

After stopping and listening quietly for almost half an hour, the sound of the piano in the courtyard stopped for a short time, Liu Xiu smiled at the corner of his mouth, come right, Zhao Wangshan is also an elegant person, the sound of the piano is definitely from his hands, he has not really experienced life, and he will never be able to play such a tune.

Although Liu Xiu's own musical talent is scarce, he can listen and appreciate it, which is not a conflict.

Then he had a little itchy hands, if he could play a song with Zhao Wangshan, wouldn't it be a beautiful conversation?

Thinking about it, he thinks it's better to forget it, don't talk about playing the erhu he plays with the other party, don't give the other party a whole back, Zhao Wangshan is old and can't stand the toss.

Tsk, although Liu Xiu is self-aware, it's a little regrettable to think about it......

"Is it true that when people get old, they will pursue one or two spiritual pleasures? Some people like square dancing, some people like to educate their juniors, some people like music to entertain themselves, and what about themselves, can you play the erhu well when you get old......"

With such an idea, taking advantage of the brief pause in the sound of the piano in the small courtyard, Liu Xiu reached out and knocked on the courtyard door.

Immediately after, footsteps sounded, the door creaked open, and a small figure appeared in Liu Xiu's sight.

Zhao Xiaoyu, who was dressed in a small padded jacket with a floral cloth, appeared at the door, and saw Liu Xiu obviously stunned for a moment, looking a little nervous and overwhelmed, and asked with a wink...... Who are you looking for? ”

Of course she knew Liu Xiu, but she wasn't sure who Liu Xiu was looking for, was it because she went to Zhenzikou every day to find her?

Zhao Xiaoyu was a little overwhelmed, and even more shy, she promised Li Changan that she would be his daughter-in-law when she grew up, and Liu Xiu would be her master when she became successful, she was not ready......

The little girl thought a lot, but Liu Xiu didn't know what she was thinking, and smiled dumbly: "Miss Xiaoyu, don't you invite me in to sit down?" First visit, No, it's a gift for you"

As he spoke, Liu Xiu handed her a little rabbit made of glass, and the gadgets he bought on the road, he estimated that little girls should be rare like this.

"I didn't mean that, Mr. Liu, please come in, I ......, I can't ask for a gift" Zhao Xiaoyu woke up, quickly opened the door and shook his head, but his eyes were bright and secretly looked at the glass rabbit in Liu Xiu's hand.

Put the glass rabbit directly in Zhao Xiaoyu's hand, and when the other party hurriedly caught it, Liu Xiu smiled: "Take it, it's not a valuable thing, I can't use it, you don't want me to throw it away."

After speaking, Liu Xiu touched her little head and entered the small courtyard.

Over there, Zhao Wangshan had already appeared at the door, and when he saw Liu Xiu, he immediately stroked his beard and smiled: "I still wonder that the magpie is calling early in the morning, it turns out that Liu Gongzi has come to the door, rare guests, please ......"

"Mr. Zhao, Dong'an, took the liberty to come to the door and didn't disturb your Yaxing, right? Remember the day you said you were playing chess? I'm coming," Liu Xiu said with a smile.

"Haha, I can't ask for ......"

The two entered the house one after another, and Zhao Xiaoyu followed in with a glass rabbit tightly behind.

There is a brazier burning in the middle of Zhao Wangshan's living room, and there is a eucalyptus table on the side, and a guqin is placed on the eucalyptus table, which I think is the one that was played before.

After a little look, Liu Xiu found that everything in Zhao Wangshan's house was a little old, old but complete, and he didn't know if he was nostalgic or because he had a hard life, maybe not, just because he didn't like extravagance and waste because of his personality, after all, Zhao Wangshan was a martial artist, although his cultivation was not high, but it was still very simple to live a good life in a place like Qingliu Town.

"I take the liberty of coming to the door, there is nothing I can get my hands on, some fresh vegetables, I grow them myself, and I hope the old gentleman doesn't mind" After entering the house, Liu Xiu handed over a small basket and said.

Looking at the newly picked vegetables in the basket, although Zhao Wangshan was surprised, he smiled and said: "If it is something else, I can't accept it, but I have to accept it, I haven't eaten fresh vegetables since the winter, Liu Gongzi has a heart."

After saying it with a smile, Zhao Wangshan took the basket, handed it to Zhao Xiaoyu on the side, and told her to make tea.

The two sat down, but Zhao Wangshan seemed a little impatient and said: "Liu Gongzi, what about the Go you are talking about?" Show me, I've been thinking about it since you said it that day."

"Old gentleman, please look," Liu Xiu said with a smile.

Moving the guqin away and putting the Go on the table, Zhao Wangshan looked at it for a moment, twisted up a chess piece and asked, "How to play this Go?" ”

"Hehe, the rules are very simple, we play white and black on the chessboard, but we have to guess the order, and then this and this, and that and that......"

Liu Xiu patiently explained the rules of Go to him.

After listening to the rules, Zhao Wangshan fell into a short period of contemplation, he looked at the chessboard seriously, although he didn't play a game, but he exclaimed: "This game of Go, it seems simple, but there is a university in it, I saw the deceit, I saw the conspiracy, I saw the tragic ...... fighting, this small chessboard, vertical and horizontal nineteen ways, can simply deduce everything in the whole world!" ”

is worthy of being a person who has lived for most of his life, and he can think of so many rules alone, Liu Xiu had to admire Zhao Wangshan, and immediately smiled: "The old gentleman is serious, this Go is just entertainment, if you think too much, you will be very tired."

"Hehe, it's me who is obsessed, come on, let's talk about a game first, don't talk so much, pure entertainment" Zhao Wangshan smiled indifferently.

Zhao Xiaoyu came over after making two cups of tea, and watched curiously on the side, without saying anything to disturb.

On the chessboard, the two guessed the piece, Liu Xiu took the lead in white, and fell in a decent manner, not excited, and not off-the-side.

Zhao Wangshan is a beginner, he has learned the same, the same rules, but the novelty has his own thinking in it.

The first game ended in half an hour, Liu Xiu won a big victory, and winning was inevitable, after all, Zhao Wangshan had never touched Go before.

After it was over, Zhao Wangshan thought seriously for a moment before nodding and saying, "I probably already know about it, come again"

Then in the second game, Liu Xiu also won, but it took a full hour.

Both of them are very slow, Liu Xiu is indifferent, and Zhao Wangshan has lived for most of his life and has enough patience.

From the third game, after Zhao Wangshan fully understood the rules of Go, the two really entered the game stage, and then the game was patience, layout, wisdom and character.

From the style of chess, you can see a person's character, Zhao Wangshan is to win in stability, and constantly try various means to block Liu Xiu under the premise of overall stability, he is a martial artist after all, and he also plays chess with the style of a martial artist, different blocking methods are like different moves of a martial artist against the enemy, and the stability of the overall situation is like the mentality of a martial artist.

As for Liu Xiu, he has always been stable and stable, laying out little by little, without conspiracy and trickery, and without deliberately setting traps, as the chess game progresses, he often inadvertently occupies an absolute advantage, and everything falls into place so naturally.

Liu Xiu is serious about playing chess, even if Zhao Wangshan is a beginner, even if it is extremely easy to win against the other party, but he is really serious about playing chess, and he does not deliberately let or release water.

Zhao Wangshan can naturally feel the gap between himself and Liu Xiu, he did not have emotions because Liu Xiu did not let him, but became more and more brave and happy to do this, and his chess skills improved after every game.

Zhao Xiaoyu has been curious on the sidelines, the rules of Go are not difficult, and she has learned how to play chess for a long time, but after all, she is still young and doesn't understand so many advanced layouts and wisdom, she just seems to understand it, and she has seen Liu Xiu and Zhao Wangshan play game by game, although she herself doesn't understand it, but a concept of 'overall situation' has slowly grown in her young heart......

After another game of chess, Zhao Wangshan threw away the chess pieces and rubbed his eyebrows and smiled bitterly: "Hey, people are old, although the rules of this chess are simple, but they are quite wasteful of energy, old, lack of energy, Liu Gongzi, let's stop here today."

"It's okay, then the junior won't bother" Liu Xiu looked at the sky outside and smiled, the time came to the afternoon unconsciously.

Seeing Liu Xiu get up and prepare to leave, Zhao Wangshan immediately shook his head and said, "Liu Gongzi is not in a hurry, since he has come, just stay and have a meal before leaving, didn't you say that you wanted to have a drink with me that day?" ”

"Haha, that junior is disrespectful" Liu Xiu didn't postpone it, just sat down directly.

Zhao Wangshan first instructed Zhao Xiaoyu on the side to cook, and then looked at the chessboard with great interest and said: "Come on, Liu Gongzi, let's study this game of chess, obviously I am in a good form, why are you in a daze?" ”

"Actually, it's very simple, Mr. Zhao, please see, every chess piece in my game of chess seems to be unrelated to each other, in fact, it is implicated, you didn't notice this, as the chess game progresses, my seemingly unrelated chess pieces are connected to block your way......"

discussed the chess game with Zhao Wangshan, finished eating and drinking, and finally Liu Xiu left with two points of drunkenness, and he simply gave the Go pair directly to Zhao Wangshan, and the two sides agreed to have time to continue to fight for another 300 rounds.

I have to say that in this world where entertainment is relatively scarce, Zhao Wangshan, an old and lonely old man, suddenly became obsessed with Go, saying that although he did not win against Liu Xiu, he decided to introduce it to others, so that he could find a field to practice chess skills from others in order to win back from Liu Xiu in the future, Liu Xiu responded that he was waiting for that day, but he would never release the water, and Zhao Wangshan laughed and scolded him, a young man, who did not know the feelings of the elderly......

It was only afternoon when Liu Xiu left, Zhao Wangshan spent a lot of energy playing chess, and he drank some wine when he was old, so he went to rest early, and it was Zhao Xiaoyu who sent him to the door.

The previous meals were made by Zhao Xiaoyu, don't look at her young age, in fact, Zhao Wangshan's housework here has been handled by her in recent years, Zhao Wangshan adopted her and taught her to read, read and practice martial arts, she knows how to be grateful, and really regards Zhao Wangshan as her own elder.

When they parted at the door, Zhao Xiaoyu carefully got rid of Liu Xiu, if there is any news of Li Changan, please tell her on the premise that it is convenient, she is very concerned about Li Changan.

Please, the little girl was shy, and when she went back to the house, she didn't dare to face Liu Xiu.

"Come and listen to the wind and watch the rain, drink with three or five friends, it's really good to have a day like this......"

After a leisurely half of the day, Liu Xiu returned to the medical hall with a good mood, and as soon as he opened the door of the medical hall, he suddenly found that the atmosphere here was a little delicate, and Liu Xiu was immediately stunned.

There are four people in the medical hall, and there is a faint confrontation between the two of them, Xia Haitang and Su Xiaoxiao on one side, and the other two are unknown martial artists, and their cultivation can also be called outstanding.

Slightly stunned, Liu Xiu stepped in, looked in the direction of Xia Haitang and took the lead in speaking: "Miss Xia Dong'an, I haven't seen you for a long time, when did you come?" No advance notice ......"
