Chapter 43 The Chess Game

Outside the Green Bamboo Pavilion, green bamboo, breeze, and flowing water reflect each other. The faint medicinal fragrance lingers on the side of the small pavilion next to the bamboo house, quiet and melodious, tranquil and pleasant. The first game is a game.

Shen Li took Yu Chimu to the pavilion and stretched out his hand to invite him to sit down. Wei Chimu bowed his hand, and after Shen Li sat down, he rolled up his sleeves and sat down opposite him generously.

In front of them is placed a catalpa chessboard, the surface of which is crystal clear, reflecting the faint shadow of bamboo. On both sides of the chessboard, two baskets of straw baskets are placed, which are filled with black and white chess pieces, which are of the same size, delicate and jade, and crystal soft.

Shen Li glanced at him for a long time, "The old man is old, so I'll let you take three steps." ”

Wei Chi Mu's eyebrows were slightly, his chin was grateful, and then he picked up the sunspot and landed on the chessboard steadily.

Scarlet Yan stood beside the two of them, her eyes drooped lightly, although her attainments in chess skills were not as good as the two of them, but she had also learned some from Shen Li, seeing the three sons of Yu Chi Mu scattered on the chessboard, she couldn't help frowning, but she didn't make a sound.

Seeing that the three sons had fallen, Shen Li threw the white pieces pinched on his fingertips into the chessboard.

Yu Chimu raised his eyebrows, his eyes fell on a smile on the corner of Shen Li's mouth, and in the depths of his black eyes, a trace of sharpness and speed crossed, he slowly stretched out to the grass basket, pinched a black chess, and under Shen Li's gaze, his hand rose and his hand fell!

Syllable!

Scarlet Smoke's eyebrows jumped, she didn't expect Yu Chimu to be so decisive. Shen Li's chess skills, she has seen it, all the chess players who have played with Shen Li, whether they are famous or not, will lose no more and no less under him, without exception, and even won the title of "Shen Shizi".

Although he had heard of Wei Chi's outstanding chess skills, Scarlet Smoke was still a little worried. She glanced at Wei Chi Mu in the afterglow, and saw that he looked like he was sitting still and as steady as Mount Tai, so she stabilized the uneasiness in her heart, and only lowered her hand and quietly stared at the changes in the chess game.

Every time a black son fell in, a white child followed, and after more than a dozen back and forth, I saw that Shen Li still looked like he was not careful, and Yu Chimu's face was still pale, but the speed of the fall was obviously slowed down, and every step had to be thought about a little.

Shen Li's momentum is like a fierce tiger, and from the moment he starts, he has already shown his fangs overflowing with cold light, attacking the city, encroaching on the whale swallow, and surrounding the sunspots.

On the contrary, although Chi Mu did not have the momentum of Shen Li, he did not show a trace of timidity. Even if the situation gradually became serious, he was still calm, his sword eyebrows were calm and indifferent, and there was no trace of panic in the hand holding the chess pieces.

"Huh." After Wei Chi Mu thought about it a few times and finally left a son, Shen Li suddenly spoke, his calm and unhurried attitude was finally broken, stroking his beard, Shen Li sighed secretly, this son is extraordinary.

At first, his three moves seemed to be casual, but when he reached the twentieth move, he gradually showed some clues, and he thought that he had only set up a false move, and three moves blocked his way, but he didn't want to be dissolved by him again.

It's a little interesting, Shen Li glanced at the man opposite without a trace, but his subordinates showed no mercy and approached step by step.

The corners of Yu Chimu's forehead had already climbed a layer of fine beads of sweat, although he was a little prepared in his heart, but he didn't want Shen Li's chess skills to be so high, and now he had walked forty steps with difficulty, and the rest of the road would only be more difficult. Looking at the scarlet smoke clenched with his fingers on the side, Yu Chi Mujian frowned, and the sunspot in his hand that was about to fall moved a little in the other direction, and the sound was crisp.

"You can play forty moves in the old man's hands, you are the first in all these years," Shen Li smiled, and then said, "But let's give up." ”

When Scarlet Smoke heard this, his heart sank suddenly. She saw that the black son was tired in the chess game, and the white son was unstoppable, as if the black city would be broken in the next second, but it was strange to say, it looked crumbling, but she persisted for so long, and she had not lost forty moves, and Wei Chimu's chess skills could be seen.

However, for Shen Li's words, Wei Chimu still didn't have any superfluous expression on his face, and only said lightly, "The kid thinks it's too early, sir, please." ”

"Stubborn." Shen Li shook his head and wiped the beard on his chin, and the white son in his hand fell in response.

At this time, Wei Chimu only had a chessboard in his eyes, and now the sunspot was wandering between life and death again and again, persistent and stubborn, and the powerful Baizi turned him several times or broke through or feints, but he didn't break its city.

"Huh?" When he finally reached the forty-ninth step, Shen Li was surprised again, the chess pieces in his hand were about to be thrown, but at the moment when they were about to fall on the board, they were pinched by him steadily.

After looking at it for a long time, Shen Li's eyes went from confusion and shock to silence, and the slightly cloudy eyes burst out with brilliance, like a galaxy scattered in the world, "Hahaha!" ”

"I didn't expect it, I didn't expect it!"

Shen Li shook his head with a smile, and then sighed with emotion, "It's really terrifying." Boy, did you set up this game at the beginning and wait for the old man...... No, just invite the old man into this game? ”

Wei Chimu's eyes were scorching, and he left the last fiftieth son, got up and saluted Shen Li, and then said, "It is indeed a record to invite you into the urn, thanks to Mr. for his teaching." ”

Shen Li sighed, nodded, and then shook his head, looking at the scarlet smoke on the side with a puzzled face, the master was not a person who couldn't afford to lose, and he didn't know what he remembered in this appearance. As if knowing what she was thinking, Shen Li raised his head and looked at Yu Chi Mu with burning eyes, "No, Yu Chi boy, what is your relationship with Old Man Ouyang?" ”

Unexpectedly, Shen Li recognized it so quickly, and Yu Chimu respected the old man in front of him even more in his heart, and said loudly, "Mr. Ouyang is the kid's enlightenment teacher. ”

"That's right, that's right." Shen Li muttered when he heard this, his face full of memories, "Tsk, I think back then, 'Shen Shizi' and 'Ouyang Maniac' were the two major signboards in the chess art world. He changed his words, "Who knew that this madman actually temporarily said that he wanted to fight on the battlefield, and now he doesn't know where to run. ”

Wei Chimu saw that the old man was dissatisfied, and then said, "The family teacher once sent a letter to the boy, and the letter said that he had arrived at the border of the northern country, and he missed the gentleman very much. ”

Shen Li rolled his eyes, "You can pull it, don't coax the old man." ”

Scarlet sneered, "Master, you're not a three-year-old child, do you still need to coax?" Worried about Uncle Ouyang, just send him a letter, what kind of stubbornness are you? ”

"Hey, radish head, who do you say is stubborn", Shen Li turned his face and glared at Scarlet Smoke when he heard this, "Whoever is worried about him is all nonsense." Besides, why didn't he send a letter to the old man? ”

Knowing that his master is this kind of character, Scarlet Smoke doesn't pierce him, only purses his mouth and smiles, when she was young, she only saw Ouyang Xunfeng but two sides, although she can't remember his appearance, but occasionally Shen Li mentions it, he looks like he can't get used to it but supports him. It's a pity that Scarlet Smoke hasn't met such a deep friend in these two lives, so he can't understand the taste.

However, it seems that this first condition has been achieved, she really didn't expect that Yu Chimu would be so coincidentally the apprentice of the master's old friend, so fate is really a wonderful thing.

Knowing that he had taken the topic far, Shen Li glanced at the chess game and couldn't help frowning, "Since this game is with the help of Old Man Ouyang's 'Please Enter the Urn', strictly speaking, it is not your own strength, but ......"

"It's not easy to set up the 'urn' of 'please enter the urn', it can deceive the old man's eyes, on the one hand, it shows that your attainments in chess skills are not shallow, and second, it is the old man who underestimates the enemy, so that you have a chance."

Wei Chimu didn't take credit, but just bowed to him, "Thank you, Mr. for your mercy." ”

Shen Li waved his hand, "The old man is not merciful, if he really doesn't have that strength, even if this girl pleads with you, the old man will not raise his eyebrows." can go through fifty rounds under the old man, and he is worthy of being the apprentice of the old man Ouyang. ”

Scarlet Yan listened impatiently, and secretly glanced at his master, but he didn't want such small actions to be taken into the eyes of the two of them, Shen Li snorted lightly, "This level, even if you barely passed, but don't be too happy, there are still two levels." ”

After that, Shen Li passed by the two of them with his hands, "You come with the old man." ”

Scarlet Yan glanced at Wei Chimu, and saw that his expression was still the same, and he was not happy because he had reached the first condition, nor was he unhappy because the master implied that he was clever, and he was inexplicably relieved in his heart.

Throwing away the distracting thoughts, the two followed Shen Li into the house one after the other, only to find that two small bowls had been placed on the table at some point. Looking closer, there are small half bowls of peach-colored medicinal juice in both bowls.

Years of medical experience have made Scarlet Smoke's sense of smell quite keen, and her heart was shocked when she smelled the faint smell of "Zhixin Grass" in the medicinal juice. Zhixin herb is an indispensable medicinal material for relieving bloodthirst, and they didn't have time to find it in the future, but they didn't want the master to have it, and it was boiled into medicinal juice. Is it to let Wei Chimu drink it? So the master has already made a move, so what is his intention in setting these three conditions?

Scarlet Yan couldn't guess the master's thoughts, glanced at the old man, and heard Shen Li's voice full of interest, "After drinking this medicinal juice and surviving the medicinal power, this second condition will be achieved." The undisguised urgency in that voice aroused a wave of uneasiness in Scarlet Smoke's heart.

She hadn't heard of the medicinal power of boiling Zhixin grass into medicinal juice, but she looked at it and saw that there was some ill-will in the master's eyes, and she was even more uneasy, and she just wanted to speak, but she was stopped by Shen Li's eyes, "If you don't drink it, then the teacher will definitely not detoxify." ”

Hearing this, Yu Chimu handed Scarlet Smoke a reassuring look, then walked to the table, picked up one of the bowls, raised his head and poured it, then picked up the other bowl, and after putting down the two bowls, Yu Chimu sat down on the bamboo chair next to the table with a normal expression.

Seeing that Wei Chimu was so decisive, the smile on Shen Li's face became even stronger, and he pulled the scarlet cigarette over,

"Apprentice, come and watch a good show with the teacher."
