Chapter 57: A Game of Chess
Chishui was about to reach out to catch the little tiger.
Who knew that Qi Lian Mu Ze's big hand with distinct bones stretched out, scooped up the little tiger halfway, handed it to Chishui and said, "Now it's out of gas?"
Chi Shui felt a stump in her heart, this person was really treacherous and stingy, and she still remembered the questions she hadn't answered before.
She didn't answer him, but just reached out to ask for the little tiger.
Even Mu Ze refused to give it to her, shook it in front of her eyes, and said, "This is what I found after rummaging through the entire flying boat, and now it's mine." ”
Chi Shui saw that the little tiger was pinched by the other party, and his limbs were not landing in the air and he was not struggling, but he thought that Qi Lian Mu Ze was playing a game with it, and he was so excited that he held his head with his two front paws and went straight to Chishui to sell cuteness, and his tail kept wagging around......
Chishui: "......"
She longed to grab those two fluffy round ears and educate them for a round.
She regretted it, when she first made it, she only thought about cute spirituality, and she didn't join the contract of recognizing the owner, so that now the little tiger is close to her own mother, but she only knows how to sell cuteness, and she can't command it at all.
Out of sight and out of mind, Chishui turned around again.
Qi Lian Mu Ze stopped in front of her faster than her.
Chi Shui was speechless, and said helplessly: "What do you want?" ”
Qilian Mu Ze stretched out his other hand, and in his hand was the spirit rhino horn that Chi Shui had thrown over just now.
Chi Shui stared at the spirit horn, eager to stare at it until it melted.
However, nothing happened.
After a long time, she raised her head and reluctantly said, "Can I not do it?" ”
"Can't!" Qi Lian Mu Ze's tone was resolute, and there was no room for negotiation.
Chi Shui felt that his head was too big, and said bluntly: "You should know that even if I accept it, I will only seal it and press it at the bottom of the box and never see the light of day, this is a complete waste, I'm sorry for its own value, are you sure you still want to give it to me?" ”
Qilian Muze gently took her hand and put the spirit rhino horn in her palm before saying, "I'm sure!" ”
He stared into Chishui's eyes, his eyes were as gentle as water: "I don't expect you to take it with me all the time, I just hope that if there is a chance that you are in danger and trapped somewhere, you will take it out, and I will definitely come to look for you......"
The two looked at each other silently.
At this moment, Chi Shui could feel the sincerity of Qi Lian Muze.
Whether it was on the way to the Cracked Rock Water Canyon or now, her keen five senses can deeply perceive the real emotional transformation of the other party.
From the anger and anger at the beginning, to the various routines later, she was still able to keep her heart, but he put his own routines into it.
Now, for example, perhaps he was sure that she had to marry him, so he seemed to open his heart to her, willing to take the lead in giving his sincerity, and was careful to include her under his wing.
She's not a hard-hearted person.
If he had been using routines as before, she would not be afraid, but now he wanted to exchange his sincerity, which could be said to have hit her weakness, and she herself did not guarantee whether she could hold it.
She admitted that at that moment just now, she was really touched to the softest place in her heart.
She has been running forward non-stop all these years, and she has long forgotten that before the crossing, she was just an ordinary woman who was still longing for her other half.
She had even forgotten what it was like to be alone, she had become one with it.
It wasn't until now that she realized that the world had changed her completely.
Even if her heart feels something, even if there is a moment of throbbing, she has long forgotten the unique tenderness of women.
What's more, she still has a grudge with the Qilian family.
She is not Juliet, but their story deeply educates and reminds her not to play with fire.
Knowing that a relationship will not end well......
Chi Shui was the first to look away, but she couldn't respond.
Qi Lian Mu Ze's eyes showed a look of loss, and when he saw that Chi Shui had not thrown the spirit rhino horn back, he cheered up again, and said, "Let's go!" ”
Nothing to say all the way.
Chi Shui thought that this was to send her back to the previous courtyard, but she didn't know that the scenery was wrong while walking, and just as she was hesitating, Qilian Muze stopped and said sideways: "My great-grandfather wants to see you, it's on it, don't be afraid, just follow me." ”
Chishui paused.
She wanted to turn around and leave, but Qi Lian Mu Ze directly grabbed her as if she knew what she thought.
Chi Shui turned to think that if the other party really wanted to see her, how could she see it, and it was useless to escape, so she changed her mind again.
Just broke away from his hand and motioned for the other party to lead the way.
Pray for Bian Muze to secretly comfort himself that he was not in a hurry, so he took the initiative to lead the way in front without mentioning it.
This is a small hill with a gentle slope and various trees and flowers on both sides, which is obviously well cared for.
Climbing the stairs, I saw that there was a large bamboo building sitting on it, which occupied almost half of the top of the mountain, and the rest was covered by bamboo forests, and I couldn't see what else was around.
Unlike other places, it is very quiet.
Chishui watched while walking, and Qilian Muze walked to the front of the bamboo building, bowing and waiting.
Seeing this, Chi Shui didn't want to look around anymore and walked next to him.
As soon as he stood up, the bamboo door opened.
"Great-grandfather!"
Chi Shui raised his eyes curiously, and saw a handsome middle-aged uncle walking out of the room, first glanced at Qi Lian Muze, and then looked at her and nodded slightly.
When Chi Shui looked again, the other party had moved to the bamboo chair in the courtyard and sat down.
What about the white-bearded grandfather?
However, at a glance, the contours of the faces of the two of them are like a mold, and there is no doubt that they are really great-grandchildren.
Although Chi Shui complained, she also moved over with Qi Lian Mu Ze, and she didn't have time to worship and see her.
The middle-aged uncle's temper is not bad, but he is a little straight, and he waved his sleeves directly to Qilian Muze: "You go and get busy first, let your prospective daughter-in-law play a game of chess with me, and you will come over later." ”
"Yes, great-grandfather." Qilian Muze seemed to be accustomed to such an attitude, gave Chishui a reassuring look, and then retreated.
Chishui had to step forward and salute, "Chishui greets seniors!" ”
The middle-aged uncle raised his eyebrows, glanced at her thoughtfully, and then said "um", and then casually wiped it on the table, and a chessboard appeared.
This is not the usual Go board, but a one-sided chessboard.
There are no staggered grid lines like a Go board, but a miniature landscape of mountains and rivers, including glaciers, deserts, and oceans.
"Little girl, come and play chess with your great-grandfather."
Is this going to test her refining array technique?
Chishui was not afraid, and after agreeing happily, he sat down opposite him, not at all restrained.
The middle-aged uncle looked at it in his eyes, "It is said that you have learned all the formation techniques in the inheritance of Yujue?" ”
"Yes, senior." Chi Shui replied as he observed the terrain trend within it, the distribution of spiritual power in the array space, and others.
The middle-aged uncle saw that she really wanted to play chess seriously, and immediately said: "Then you make the first move, do you want your great-grandfather to let you make a few moves?" ”
"No need." The first hand is already taking advantage, Chishui directly pinched the spiritual trick, took local materials, and shaved off the rough skin on the outside, attached the formation trick, and knocked directly to the middle of the array plate.
"Huo!" The middle-aged uncle's eyes widened slightly, looking at the eye-catching array stone in the middle of the array, "The little girl is not small!" ”
In contrast, the middle-aged uncle's response was relatively simple, just picking up a dead branch and inserting it next to the array stone at random.
Chi Shui smiled, not daring to slack off, staring at the array with burning eyes.
This is the first time she's played chess.
Thinking about it, only people like Qi Lian dare to miniature these thousands of miles of rivers and mountains into a square chess for people to play.
She was a little excited, it was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to play against a real Array Master.
She quickly laid down the second phalanx stone.
Same as Go, the early stage is the time for both sides to lay out, and Chishui knows that if she follows the steps, it is impossible to win, so she will play the first phalanx chess to the center.
What she wants is the word "chaos", everyone doesn't want to develop with peace of mind, she can't say that she can still touch some fish while the chaos is ......
However, in this way, the layout time is not so easy, starting from the first phalanx, the battle between the two sides has begun, and then not only look at the layout ability of the two sides, but also have to test the quality of the condensation array and the comprehensive quality of insight into the overall situation.
It's not just about choosing a magic circle, it's about determining a main formation at the beginning of the game, and then supplementing it with a variety of other magic circles, preventing the opponent from seeing through it in advance, and destroying the enemy's formation......
There are all kinds of things, and after a period of time, even if Chishui has a few points of divine sense, he is very busy and sweating like rain.
So even if she knew that the middle-aged uncle was still watching her carefully while playing chess, she couldn't care about it.
This is much more difficult and complicated than Go, and with her dislike of not wanting to lose, she has to concentrate on dealing with the occasional outburst.
Chi Shui felt like she was playing whack-a-mole, pressing down the danger here, and it popped up there, one after another.
Of course, she knew that this was the other party's action to restrain her, and she coped with it while thinking of countermeasures.
If you start with something important and urgent, then the same is true for chess.
It is only through personal experience that you can understand how uncomfortable it can feel when those small bursts that are obviously urgent but not important erupt.
The so-called pulling a hair to move the whole body, in the late stage of the chess game, Chi Shui only had time to protect the heart and brain in the formation, and his limbs were already scarred.
If her limbs are completely paralyzed, she will be completely unable to fight back.
So she's trying her best to save one arm, but will the other party let her get her wish?
Obviously impossible, after being chased and beaten fiercely, Chi Shui completely collapsed on the bamboo chair, she lost, and was completely abused!
Suddenly, I remembered that there was an old-timer on the other side, so I hurriedly sat up straight and smiled a little crampedly.
Qi Lian's great-grandfather also had some insights, you must know that in the first half, starting from the first move, Chishui can be said to have made many strange moves, full of tricks, many of which he had never seen, and he was also caught off guard.
If it weren't for the strong technical skills, he would have doubted that if he continued like this, he would not be able to break the record of thousands of years of undefeated, but fortunately, after the chess game was rolled out, he found an opportunity to fight back and save face, otherwise......
He looked at Chishui with shining eyes, a little impressed, and felt that the daughter-in-law of the little great-grandson was the right choice.
He is most annoyed by the dead guys who play chess at home, the chess strength is still so weak that it is good, it is good to be able to hold on to the middle game, how can this girl be interesting.
He glanced at the little great-grandson who had come back to stand aside and watch at some point, and secretly blamed him for not being angry, and he couldn't even hold back a little girl.
He decided to help him: "When are you going to hold the deed ceremony?" ”
