Yang Hu gave the heavy armor sergeant two days off. 【】

Of course, this holiday can only be spent in the small town of Flowstone.

Something is better than nothing.

And the haze in the sky rarely converged, although it didn't rain, it was still black and oppressive over the sky.

Except for the five people who stayed in the courtyard to carry out the guard, everyone else followed Yang Hu to the street.

There are more than 30 households in this town, and there are houses behind the streets of more than 100 steps, although they look a little dilapidated, but the wood carvings in front of each house, the eaves are still some antique taste.

Yang Hu looked at it slowly, but the sergeants were bored one by one, and they didn't dare to run around after him.

is Zhao Qingtian, who is bored looking east and west.

Walking out of a section, a group of people of different ages gathered under a big tree on the side of the street, watching the two white-haired old men in the crowd play chess.

The chess players were silent, but the onlookers were elated, divided into two teams and coaxing each other.

Yang Hu stopped and waved to Qingkui behind him, and stepped forward with Zhao Qingtian.

The crowd watching the chess game had already seen them coming, and the noise in their mouths was a little smaller, and some of the timid people in the crowd had already moved out of the way, allowing Yang Hu to walk to the side of the chess game under the shade of the tree.

Qing Kui, who had already walked away, was clever, rushed to the side and got a chair over and placed it behind Yang Hu.

Yang Hu sat down, and the two white-haired old men who were playing chess didn't react, still concentrating on the chess game.

Yang Hu looked at the chess game, the black chess rooks and horses were rampant, and they had already broken through the river boundary and were raging and approaching the base camp of the red chess, and the red chess pieces were scattered between the chess games, scattered to the side.

The two people playing chess are interesting, the side holding the black chess is obviously winning, but at the moment it seems to be cautious, the red chess side seems to be scattered, but the person holding the piece is smiling.

The heart is indifferently revealed!

The chess spectators next to them gradually dispersed because of Yang Hu's joining, and the people had already seen this group of wolf-like soldiers, and it was already very good that they did not panic.

Under the shade of the tree, there were gradually only two chess players left, and Yang Hu and Zhao Qingtian were two chess watchers.

As for the sergeants scattered next to them, they didn't count.

Zhao Qingtian should also be very familiar with war chess, and after looking at it for a while, he seemed to see the subtlety in the chess game, so he simply sat on the ridge under the tree and thought about it intently.

Yang Hu didn't change much, leaning lazily in his chair.

His gaze fell more on the two old chess players.

In his early sixties, his hair was silver-white, he was also dressed in coarse cloth clothes, his face, his skin, and his big rough hands were in great conflict with their demeanor of playing chess.

To put it bluntly, two old farmers in the field are fighting.

As for whether the chess game is mysterious or not, Yang Hu is not interested.

People who use the world as a chessboard, who still focuses on this.

The endgame lasted for more than two hours to end, and in the end, the old man with the black letter smiled like a burden: "I finally won." ”

The old man who had been smiling faintly shook his head: "I still lost." ”

The two looked at each other and smiled, then they looked back at the empty side, bowed their heads to Yang Hu and Zhao Qingtian, put away the chess game, and the two agreed to fight again tomorrow, and turned away respectively.

Yang Hu was also afraid of getting up, so he walked back with his hands behind his back and said softly: "Interesting." ”

Zhao Qingtian, who got up with him, was stunned: "What does the city lord mean?"

"The chess game is like a person!"

Yang Hu laughed and looked up at the dark haze on the horizon: "What do you think of the level of those two old men?"

Zhao Qingtian shrugged: "Let's get started, occasionally take a few surprising steps." Only then did the battle continue until now. If someone else goes up, they will soon be able to kill them and lose their armor. ”

"Oh, so confident?" Yang Hu laughed: "Then tomorrow you can find someone to try." ”

......

With Yang Hu speaking, the time when the team was going to set off was also delayed, in order to watch Zhao Qingtian's chess.

It was also God's care that there was no heavy rain, and after dinner, a few light rains stopped, and Qingkui balded his head and a few of them did a good thing, and hugged Yang Hu and Zhao Qingtian and walked under the tree.

It seems that some of these chess watchers also heard that Yang Hu and they were going to play a game yesterday, and the news has spread, and the crowd of onlookers has increased.

As soon as they came, the crowd of onlookers dispersed.

Stand aside.

To Zhao Qingtian's surprise, only one of the two old men came today, the one who played black chess yesterday.

is smiling and looking at Yang Hu and Zhao Qingtian who came forward.

He got up and arched his hand: "I heard that the distinguished guests from the town are going to fight a game." My old fellow still has some chores at home, so I'll start with a game. ”

The town, the news spreads quickly, not unusual.

Yang Hu smiled at the old man and nodded, and pointed at Zhao Qingtian: "He thinks he can easily defeat you, so I asked him to try." ”

"Welcome, welcome!" The old man bowed his hand to Zhao Qingtian: "Please!"

Zhao Qingtian thought about what Yang Hu said, and the smile of the old man, he was not afraid to step forward and sit down, and stretched out his hand to signal: "Please!"

The old man smiled at him and said: "The distinguished guest has come from afar, and the old man will hold the red party! Please!"

As he spoke, he had already started to change the chess game that had been set up.

Yang Hu also sat down next to him with a smile.

Taking the lead in black, Zhao Qingtian will not give in in front of this farmer who relies on the old and sells the old, sets up a fierce cannon, and puts on an offensive appearance.

The old man who played black chess yesterday was already fierce in his chess style, and when he saw Zhao Qingtian's start, he was naturally not to be outdone, and he also adjusted the head gun and went toe-for-tat.

There were a few whispers from the crowd next to him, Yang Hu swept his eyes, the voice disappeared immediately, and the talkative one could only obediently watch chess in front of him.

The changes in the chess game did not have the amazing momentum of a dragon and a tiger, but they rose and fell as usual, and the cannons, horses, chariots, and pawns collided with each other.

Yang Hu looked at it with a smile on his face.

The result was something that none of them could have imagined in Qingkui.

Zhao Qingtian lasted less than half an hour in the chess game before he was defeated with a black face.

made Yang Hu laugh more than once, personally stepped forward to give him another game, and said to the old man: "It's common to win two out of three games, and success or failure is just a snap of your fingers." You'll be there!"

The old man smiled: "It's normal, just like me, the old man never wants to admit it if he loses! ”

The old man's laughter fell on Zhao Qingtian's ears, which was very harsh.

His face also sank, and when the old man stepped out of his horse, he mentioned the red chess that belonged to him this time, and started cautiously.

When it comes to chess, everyone can imagine the changes.

When a chess player is like the world in hand, he can point out the country at will. But it is also extremely difficult to distinguish between high and low from it.

Zhao Qingtian also ended the chess game with an unimaginable three-game losing streak.

The grizzled man was dragged away from the street by Yang Hu, leaving the people happy to congratulate the old man.

Zhao Qingtian's smashing of the signboard made them win after all.

Even when he returned to the inn, Zhao Qingtian hadn't figured it out, so he had to ask Yang Hu with a wry smile: "How could I lose so badly?"

Yang Hu shrugged: "The chess game is like a person!"

Zhao Qingtian thought about it for most of the night and didn't think it through
