Chapter 57: Endgame

What Xiao Lianshan said is not unreasonable, maybe I think things are too complicated, hidden in the city, this general's face is hidden in the stones of Huashan, it is really not easy to find it inadvertently, Wen Zhuo said with a smile on his face, why think so much about whether it is right or not, just need to read out the Nine Heavens Hidden Dragon Decision, and the right and wrong will be clear at a glance.

Huashan is thrilling, I let everyone else stay below, and only took Yue Qianling to the general's face, I stood on the cliff and read the Nine Heavens Hidden Dragon Decision, and waited for a long time to look back and see Yue Qianling shaking her head at me very calmly, not only her, but I also didn't notice the slightest change, it seems that we guessed the wrong place, from the general's face disappointed, Gu Anqi said at a loss, the only one related to the general on Huashan is this general's face, if it weren't for here, I really can't think of anything else.

We should be misled by the text, preconceived to go to the general, maybe the place to be prompted by this text is not related to the general, Wen Zhuo also agreed with what I said, among these two sentences, the most critical should be in the second sentence, Iron Cavalry Wanjun recalls the year, I tried to disassemble every word in the text, but after trying for a long time there is still no result, looking at these two headless words, I shook my head at a loss.

Denghua Mountain is far more difficult than Heng Mountain and Song Mountain, everyone is tired when they come here, fortunately, this South Peak Peak is full of giant cypress pine, thick shade covers the sun, very quiet, there is a group of green shade, such as an umbrella such as a cover, the ears are bursting with pine waves, such as chanting such as singing, suddenly feel relaxed and happy, transcendent outside the object.

We sat under the tree to rest, Wen Zhuo was rare to be serious, it is estimated that he couldn't think of the meaning of these two sentences, he was a person who refused to admit defeat, although he didn't say it in his mouth but I knew that he was not less than I thought, Xiao Lianshan broke the branches and scribbled on the ground boringly, and kept complaining in his mouth.

"This Huashan station is not stable, and there are thousands of troops, to put it simply, I draw a thousand troops and thousands of horses, not to mention the real iron cavalry."

"There must be some connection between these two sentences, put aside the others, let's not think about it first, it is obvious that this text is the main martial arts, the place of the main martial arts of Huashan......" I took a deep breath and whispered to myself.

"Does Huashan talk about swords?" Xiao Lianshan suddenly laughed and said jokingly. "This can be regarded as the main martial arts."

"You...... What did you just say? Wen Zhuo straightened up and leaned against the tree, his eyes lit up and he asked eagerly.

"I'll just say it casually, you still take it seriously, you shouldn't believe that Huashan's sword discussion is true." Xiao Lianshan was a little overwhelmed by Wen Zhuo's serious appearance. "I've also heard from storytellers that there were people on this mountain who competed here a long time ago......"

"I'm not asking you this, you said that before." Wen Zhuo's expression was very serious, interrupting Xiao Lianshan's words.

"Before...... I didn't say anything before, I ...... I'll just say it's unstable. Xiao Lianshan was afraid that he would say something wrong, so he answered while thinking about it. Oh, I also said that I can't paint thousands of troops and horses, how can there be iron cavalry in this Huashan. ”

"I can't draw it...... Draw it out!" Wen Zhuo slowly removed the grass root that was holding the corner of his mouth, and paused silently for a moment. "Have you ever thought that this Iron Cavalry Army does not really exist, but is really what Lian Shan said, it was drawn!"

Everyone else looked at each other, not understanding what Wen Zhuo meant for a while, Xiao Lianshan even threw the branch in his hand in front of Wen Zhuo, and the playful tone made Wen Zhuo draw a thousand troops to come out and take a look.

I slowly straightened up, and Yue Qianling beside me suddenly grabbed my hand excitedly.

"I know where there are thousands of troops in Huashan!"

I also thought of it, Xiao Lianshan was still at a loss, I walked over and pinched his honest face, he actually woke up the dreamer with a word, Xiao Lianshan saw our expression, and asked in surprise where there are thousands of troops.

Gu Anqi quickly reacted, and even Ye Qingyu knew what was going on.

Huashan is so steep and how can there be an iron cavalry army, but thousands of troops and horses can be decided.

We almost all thought of the chess pavilion in Huashan at the same time.

According to legend, when Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, Wei Shuqing cultivated in Huashan, Emperor Wu ordered the envoy and his son to go to Huashan to recall it, and saw Shuqing and several people playing on the stone, so it is also known as Botai.

Later generations Zhao Kuangyin to thank Huashan Taoist guidance and do official Huashan to find this person, met Taoist Chen Quan, saw a chessboard chess pieces placed on the table, then bet to play chess, after the first game, the two came here to continue to play chess, two games of chess Zhao Kuangyin lost all the money and goods, the third game and Huashan lost.

Although this is all rumors, but the east peak of Huashan does have a chess pavilion, and it also coincides with the two words, Zhao Kuangyin was a general before the Chen Qiao mutiny yellow robe, the first sentence of the general asked about the river and the mountain, the general should be Zhao Kuangyin, he and the Taoist game, the square inch chessboard points to the country, of course, he is silent to ask the river and mountain.

As for the second sentence, the iron cavalry recalls the past, and there are thousands of troops and horses on the chessboard, although it is a game, but Zhao Kuangyin's expedition to the east and the west is not a recollection of the past years.

We cautiously walked to the chess pavilion of the east peak from the south peak, although the road was difficult but everyone was elated, the chess pavilion is a stone pavilion, the white stone is matched with green trees, standing on the top of the mountain is extraordinary, there is a stone table in the pavilion, there is the endgame when Zhao Kuangyin and Chen Kuan played chess on the table, and there are four stone benches next to the table.

Everyone else urged me to try it quickly, I thought there should be nothing wrong here, and I confidently pinched my fingers and recited the Nine Heavens Hidden Dragon Decision, maybe it was in response to that sentence, how disappointed I was, and after half a day after the end of the Dao mantra, there was no reaction, I tried again in another place and saw that Yue Qianling still shook her head at us.

This chess pavilion coincides with the meaning in the text, it stands to reason that it should be this place, I really can't think of what went wrong, Yue Qianling and they climbed the mountain from the south peak with great expectations, but there was still no result, they were exhausted and sat on the stone bench, Wen Zhuo sat on the edge of the cliff casually, and I walked around the chess pavilion.

"The time when Mi Ziqi left mana is not the right time to play the chess pavilion."

Wen Zhuo turned his back to us and said to himself, I was stunned, then I remembered this problem, I was too excited to ignore this detail, Zhao Kuangyin and the immortal game is a matter of later generations, even if Qi Ziqi can calculate, maybe because of the authorities, as long as these two sentences are people who know about Huashan, they will think of this chess pavilion, although I haven't found anything missing until now, I always feel that the clues left behind seem too obvious.

"The general asked the river and mountain silently, this sentence obviously refers to this place, which is beyond doubt, but the second sentence of the Iron Cavalry Wan Jun recalled that this place was also literally said back then, it seems to be a bit cumbersome, if there is something we haven't figured out, it is also in this second sentence." Wen Zhuo said thoughtfully on the edge of the cliff.

"What can I not understand about this, Zhao Kuangyin is playing chess here while recalling the events of his previous battles, which can also make sense." Xiao Lianshan replied disapprerovingly, tapping the iron-cast chess pieces on the chessboard.

"Play chess......" Gu Anqi hesitated for a moment, and her attention fell on the chessboard on the stone table. The first sentence is about playing chess, and the second sentence is not talking about this chessboard. ”

"Yes, it's the chessboard." Xiao Lianshan couldn't stop nodding. "Brother, why don't you just stand on this chessboard mountain and try it."

Xiao Lianshan said very seriously, I smiled bitterly I didn't have this chess pavilion when I stayed in the mana, of course it wouldn't have anything to do with the chessboard, Wen Zhuo, who had been sitting on the edge of the cliff, suddenly stood up, walked over without saying a word, and looked at the chessboard with his head down.

"It's not a chessboard, it's a chess game!"

Wen Zhuo's words reminded me that this chess pavilion can convey the meaning of this chess game is probably only this chess game, I still have some understanding of chess, and after looking down at the calculation of a few steps, I frowned and said.

"If both sides follow the rules and follow the rules in this endgame, it should be a draw in the end."

"Since it's a draw, how can you say that Zhao Kuangyin lost Huashan." Xiao Lianshan asked casually.

"......," Wen Zhuo hesitated for a moment, and suddenly said excitedly. Zhao Kuangyin did not lose, this is indeed a draw, Huashan was not lost by Zhao Kuangyin, it was given to the Taoist priest by Zhao Kuangyin. ”

"For ...... Why do you want to give Huashan to the Taoist priest? Ye Qingyu was curious and couldn't help asking.

"It's not about winning or losing the chess game, it's the name of this endgame, it seems that this Chen Kuan, who played chess against Zhao Kuangyin, is also a master." Wen Zhuo said unhurriedly, pointing to the chess pieces on the chessboard. "This endgame is called a double fire salary increase, Chen Kuangyin is not playing against Zhao Kuangyin, but teaching Zhao Kuangyin how to guide the country, so why not worry about sending Huashan with such a great favor."

"Ahh Just because of the name of an endgame, a mountain was given away. Xiao Lianshan frowned in puzzlement, and shook his head after thinking about it. That's not right, Zhao Kuangyin was just a general at the time, and the country was not his, how could he give Huashan away? ”

I smiled faintly and walked over to the chessboard and said calmly.

"He wasn't at the time, it doesn't mean that he won't be in the future, this Chen Jian has already told him clearly what will happen in the future through this endgame, why don't Zhao Kuangyin send Huashan."

"This endgame is called a double fire salary increase, what does it mean, can Zhao Kuangyin use Huashan to hug back?" Yue Qianling also asked curiously.

In ancient times, the salary was the meaning of firewood, that is, wood, and the wood under the double fire just happened to be a 榮 (traditional) character, and at that time, the Later Zhou Emperor was Chai Rong, Zhao Kuangyin and Chen Kuan's game, under the guidance of Chen Kuangyin, out of the endgame of this double fire salary, Zhao Kuangyin is a military general who wants to burn firewood, and Chen Kuangyin is hinting that Zhao Kuangyin will be destroyed after Zhou replaces him.

Moreover, the double fire is the flame, which means the heat and yellow, and the salary is the same as the body, which indicates that Zhao Kuangyin will be in a yellow robe, which means that Zhao Kuangyin will be the true son of heaven.
