At dawn, Chen Ping'an had just finished practicing the heaven and earth pile, and the sleepy-eyed Pei Qian knocked on the door outside, and opened the door in the past, Chen Ping'an saw a black charcoal girl with a languid look, it seems that Cui Dongshan's kind reminder last night scared Pei Qian a lot, Chen Ping'an asked her to make up for sleep in her own room, Pei Qian was amnesty, fell asleep, and helped Pei Qian cover the quilt, Chen Ping'an sat at the table and looked at the alchemy book given by Lu Yong, the immortal of the Qinghu PalaceThe words "open book is beneficial".

The inn is simple, two or three meals a day, all need to stay in the travelers to go out to solve the problem, from the shopkeeper to the guy, are temperamental, Chen Ping'an and his party checked in, they saw the inn and a group of foot businessmen scolding and scolding, disgusted each other, but Chen Ping'an has Cui Dongshan, Lu Baixiang and Sui on the right of the three people in the town, the inn to see the dishes, relatively much more enthusiastic, take the initiative to recommend a few local delicacies.

Chen Ping'an went out with Pei Qian, who had made up for the return to the cage, had breakfast, and brought one, he did not return to the house, at the door of the inn, told Pei Qian to give the food to Cui Dongshan and them, and asked her to tell them that they were going to stay in the county for two days, and he wanted to walk around alone, Pei Qian was naturally happy to rest for two days, no need to hurry, it meant that there was no need to boring six-step walking pile, which was very beautiful.

When Chen Ping'an was wandering around the county alone, Cui Dongshan and the four people in the picture scroll received the breakfast brought back by Pei Qian, and met for dinner, Cui Dongshan looked grateful, saying that this is Mr. Helping students check and fill in the gaps, with good intentions, where to find such a gentleman who thinks about students. Pei Qian didn't dare to talk back, he only dared to slander, what to check and fill in the gaps, it was obvious that he was not worried about you doing things.

After eating breakfast, Cui Dongshan was in a good mood, and smiled at Pei Qian: "Will it be a five-piece chess game?" Let's make a small bet, win or lose, just a copper coin, how about it?"

Pei Qian played five pieces of chess, it was a little trick taught to her by Lu Baixiang, the rules were simple, Pei Qian often pulled Wei Xian, borrowed Lu Baixiang's chess pieces from the chess pier, and killed the chessboard in the dark, the two had back and forth, compared to the dull and boring when Lu Baixiang and Sui played on the right, Pei Qian and Wei Xian played very lively, when they fell, they crackled more than one by one, full of momentum, and they couldn't wait to smash a hole in the chessboard, and Lu Baixiang regretted it.

Playing against Wei Xian, a stinky chess basket, Pei Qian wins more and loses less, he likes to get carried away as soon as he has the upper hand, and regrets chess as soon as he loses, but fortunately Wei Xian doesn't care much about winning or losing and chess.

At this time, I heard Cui Dongshan say that he wanted to gamble on chess, Pei Qian shook her head vigorously, she was not stupid, even if Cui Dongshan said that she wanted to learn to play chess with Lu Baixiang, but Pei Qian really didn't have the confidence to win money because of the sideways that had no threshold to speak of, after all, there are few fools like Lao Wei in the world.

Cui Dongshan smiled and said: "Let's play chess, you and I, as the disciples and protégés of Mr., of course we can't hurt the slightest harmony, whoever loses wins!"

Pei Qian's eyes lit up, he could win a penny if he lost a game of chess, there was such a beautiful thing in the world?

So in Pei Qian's house, Lu Baixiang brought chess sets, and Cui Dongshan and Pei Qian, the two peers who did not distinguish their seniority for the time being, played a five-piece chess game that was suspected of spoiling the chessboard.

The four of them watched the chess with their hearts in mind.

Pei Qian fell indiscriminately, and between the two chess pieces, there was a distance of 108,000 miles. Cui Dongshan also played without discipline, sometimes following Pei Qian's ass behind the chess, sometimes one in the south, east and west, playing some rough entry styles of Go, it seems that Pei Qian has a bigger losing side, but when the chessboard is getting narrower and narrower, Pei Qian is both distressed and surprised to find that it is easier and easier for him to make five pieces, and when the chessboard is full of black and white chess pieces, Pei Qian actually won, no matter how she falls, it is a heroic situation of five sons in a row.

lost a penny in this way, Pei Qian regretted his intestines, and he couldn't wait to eat the chessboard into his stomach and regret the chess. just glanced at Cui Dongshan, who was eating melon seeds on the opposite side, she didn't dare to play tricks.

Cui Dongshan squinted at the chess game and said regretfully: "If you lose in chess, you lose in chess, it seems that my luck is slightly better than yours." If you dislike a pair of chessboards, you can't let Pei Qian show his chess strength, we can add one, two, or three chessboards, but every time you add a pair of chess, you have to add a copper coin to the bet, what about me, as long as I win the chess, I will immediately pay you money out of my pocket, but you Pei Qian can add the chessboard at will, until you lose and win, it's fair, right?"

Pei Qian hesitated: "But the table can't hold two chessboards." ”

Cui Dongshan pointed to the ground, "Let's play chess on the ground, what are we afraid of, there are too many chessboards, you can go down to the corridor outside the house, right? Anyway, the more chessboards, the more money you win." I know you have a good memory, and I'll make do with it, let's let Lu Baixiang or Sui Youyou, go and borrow two pieces of charcoal from the inn, and then I will use charcoal to draw the chessboard, so we don't need chess pieces, if anyone remembers wrong, it will be considered a loss. ”

Pei Qian turned his head and glanced at Lao Wei, Wei Xian probably felt that this kind of way of seeking defeat was too brainy, so he left directly, and Zhu Yong even rolled his eyes and left the house.

However, there were two chess masters who were once the national players of the lotus flower blessed land, Lu Baixiang really went to borrow charcoal and returned, Sui stood aside with an indifferent expression, but the two of them stayed in the house patiently, and accompanied the big and small ones who squatted on the ground to go out of the same door.

Pei Qian's memory is good, Chen Ping'an and the four of them have long known it, it can be described as outstanding, this innate talent, whether it is Chen Ping'an, or Lu Baixiang, who is excellent in chess and familiar with the review, is ashamed of himself.

So after using up the two boxes of chess pieces, Pei Qian and Cui Dongshan not only competed to see who was more shameless, but also to compete for memory.

The other two chessboards had already been drawn with charcoal on the ground, and if Pei Qian didn't add one more pair, he would still win the chess, so he had to let Cui Dongshan draw another one.

Lu Baixiang silently left the house, followed by Sui on the right.

In the corridor, Sui asked on the right, "Can you see the depth?"

Lu Baixiang shook his head and said: "The five-piece chess is too simple, and if you draw ten more chessboards, Pei Qian still can't test the strength of this person's chess skills." ”

Sui asked on the right side: "If you no longer hide and choose to do your best, how big is the gap between us?"

Lu Baixiang smiled: "To be honest, you shouldn't be able to let me play chess." ”

The so-called tesuji is the wonderful thing on the chessboard, mostly from the evenly matched, fierce chessboard situation, governing orphans, slaying dragons, and it is easy to appear this kind of fairy hand.

The implication of Lu Baixiang's words is that he only needs to follow the steps step by step, like a bricklayer all the way to "pave chess", and he can win the right side of Sui steadily.

There is no humiliating anger on the right side of Sui, the level of chess strength on the chessboard, it is really placed over there, this way, often playing against Lu Baixiang, Sui's right is either pushing the table, or throwing the son, the national players of Go in the world, almost never say the word "I lost", but pushing the table throwing is two kinds of silent admitting defeat. Although Sui's right side is extremely victorious, she can talk about it by hand, which is regarded by her as a spare way, and winning or losing will not affect the kendo that is far greater than chess, so Sui's right side can afford to lose.

And according to the "chess world of later generations" that Zhu Yong accidentally talked about, the chess edicts and top national players of various countries in the lotus flower blessed land are highly respected for the chess power of Lu Baixiang, the originator of the Demon Sect in the early years, and the strongest players may be selected, and there will be some differences among the chess masters of various dynasties, generations and schools, but if the top three are selected from the history of the lotus blessed land, Lu Baixiang must have a place. It can be seen that Lu Baixiang has a high reputation on the chessboard.

The other two, one is Wang Jiyuan, who is known as the Chess Saint of the Ages, and the other is the "Huang?" It is this person who abolishes the seat system by virtue of the great prestige of the sect and his invincible chess power, which makes a watershed in the chess world of the lotus flower blessed land, and has since been divided into the ancient chess school and the new chess school. In the ancient years, he disappeared, so the two never had the opportunity to talk about a game, about the three-person chess skills of different eras, the later generations of Yilin masters quarreled, Lu Baixiang is undoubtedly the pinnacle of the ancient chess school, Wang Jiyuan is the apex of the new chess school, and it is a variety of formulas, Flying knives are the masters, so some people firmly believe that if Wang Jiyuan has the opportunity to face Lu Baixiang, he will definitely be able to make the second son, Lu Baixiang is not qualified to be on an equal footing with the ancient chess saint Wang Jiyuan, but the chess master who has studied the ancient chess score has threatened to let Lu Baixiang be familiar with the new chess school for three or two months, and then go to play against Wang Jiyuan, it is nothing more than an extra chess saint disciple who will worship him。

Sui suddenly said on the right: "Don't lose to that person." ”

Lu Baixiang smiled slightly: "Let's wait and see." ”

In Pei Qian's house, Cui Dongshan squatted on the ground and swallowed melon seeds, Pei Qian wrinkled his face and wanted to cry.

She's about to lose six copper coins.

Cui Dongshan comforted: "The charcoal is enough, the outcome is undecided, draw another one, gamble big and win." ”

Pei Qian raised her arm and wiped her eyes, took out the sachet that Aunt Gui gave her as a money bag from her sleeve, and took out seven copper coins from it, these are all her hard-earned money, she clutched the copper coin, hesitated to stand up, gently put it on the table, and looked at the guy surnamed Cui pitifully, hoping that he would take out the fairy demeanor and go away, never thought that Cui Dongshan walked to the table with a smile, stretched out his hand and wiped it, the copper coin disappeared, Cui Dongshan walked to the door of the house, turned around and reminded with a smile:" Remember to return the chess set to Lu Baixiang, and wipe off the traces on the ground, otherwise Chen Ping'an will know that we are gambling money, and will scold me for being bloody, and then let you copy the book until you have a broken arm, as for the money, I am willing to lose the bet, Chen Ping'an will not help you ask for it back. ”

Cui Dongshan hugged the back of his head with both hands and swaggered away, "It's a good day today, I earned money to go out to buy sugar gourds." ”

Pei Qian stood at the table and cried miserably.

Cui Dongshan suddenly retreated and walked away, leaned back, poked out his head, and said with a smile: "Pei Qian, I don't want to learn to play chess with Lu Baixiang, I plan to ask for a good omen, every time you call me a chess immortal in the future, I will give you a penny." ”

Pei Qian's eyes lit up, he ran out of the threshold with a smoke, followed Cui Dongshan with a fart, and shouted out the chess fairy diligently.

In less than an hour, in addition to handing over the chess set to Lu Baixiang, shouting the chess fairy over and over again, Pei Qian was already dumb, the two returned to her room, Pei Qian babbled, she couldn't say a word, she smiled brightly and stretched out her hand to beg, seeing that Cui Dongshan did not react, she quickly wrote a number on the table.

Cui Dongshan smiled and said, "Lie to you." Do you really believe it?"

Pei Qian collapsed, and he couldn't speak, so he could only show his teeth and claws.

Cui Dongshan narrowed his eyes and stretched out his hand to poke Pei Qian's eyes, "If you talk again, you will not only become a little mute temporarily, but also become blind." Chen Ping'an is angry again, you can't kill me as a student, but you are miserable, you have become a little blind man, what hope do you have in this life, isn't this the reason?"

Cui Dongshan stood up and pretended to be blind and reached out to touch it.

Pei Qian had a dark face, pursed her lips, and didn't dare to pick up the walking stick to kill this bastard, the more she thought about it, the more desperate she became, her expression was sluggish, and she sat on the edge of the bed, her heart was like ashes, and tears were like rain.

Cui Dongshan suddenly took out a silver ingot-like thing from his sleeve and gently threw it to Pei Qian, "Look at your interest, borrow you to play for a few days, if I learn chess well, maybe I'll give it to you as soon as I'm in a good mood." But when I play chess with Lu Baixiang, remember to pay me back first. ”

Pei Qian held the heavy silver ingot in both hands, and suddenly burst into tears.

Cui Dongshan left again.

Pei Qian put the big silver ingot on the table, looked horizontally and vertically, looked left and right, never got tired of looking at it, was thinking about how to keep this silver ingot in her hand, she suddenly widened her eyes, only to see that the "silver ingot" actually began to creep and move, and then turned into a snow-white grasshopper, jumped to the window, and disappeared all of a sudden, after Pei Qian came back to his senses, he immediately climbed up to the window, jumped down, and began to look for "silver ingots" in the backyard, and looked for weeds and wall roots for half an hour. The cracks in the stones, and finally began to dig the ground with his hands, but in the end, he still couldn't find the silver ingot that had become a "worm", and the exhausted Pei Qian sat in the mud blankly, this time he didn't even have the strength to cry.

When Chen Ping'an walked around and returned to the inn from the Confucian Temple, he saw Pei Qian's emaciated back, and she didn't respond to a few shouts.

Chen Ping'an had to jump out from the windowsill, Pei Qian turned his head stiffly, and after seeing Chen Ping'an, he drooped his head and grabbed the corners of his clothes with both hands.

Chen Ping'an sighed, returned to the house, went directly to Cui Dongshan, and soon stood at the window, shouting to Pei Qian: "Seven copper coins, if you have the ability, you can win it back yourself, and if you can't win it back, you will admit defeat, but Cui Dongshan's silver ingot called 'Worm Silver', you can play with it, when he says he wants to take it back, you still have to do it." ”

Although Pei Qian was still sad, Ma Yu'er still stood up, climbed on the windowsill, jumped on the ground, held his hands, and carefully took the "insect silver" that restored the appearance of silver ingots.

Chen Ping'an pulled Pei Qian's ears and carried her to the table, "If you have a good time, you will gamble with others?"

Pei Qian sat at the table tremblingly, covering the insect silver with both hands.

Chen Ping'an asked: "I like gambling so much, then I will give you the treasure box in the bamboo box, anyway, you have a very rich family now, you and Cui Dongshan can gamble many times, should I help you get it, or will you go by yourself?"

Pei Qian looked flustered and shook his head vigorously.

Chen Ping'an slapped the table, "Go get the treasure box, and carry it yourself in the future!"

Pei Qian turned his head fiercely, with a straight face, neither crying nor begging for mercy, not looking at Chen Ping'an or listening to him.

Chen Ping'an was so angry that he couldn't do it.

Pei Qian gritted his teeth and threw the silver ingot in his hand out of the window.

Chen Ping'an stood up, went to the next room to open the bamboo box, turned out the multi-treasure box, returned to Pei Qian's house, threw it on the table and left.

After a while, Chen Ping'an had just taken a sip of medicinal wine in the house, and Pei Qian rushed in with the multi-treasure box, stuffed the multi-treasure box into the bamboo box with lightning speed, and then ran away.

Chen Ping'an took out the treasure box again and walked next door, but Pei Qian had bolted the door of the house.

Chen Ping'an was so angry that he couldn't wait to kick open the door of the house, and then throw this guy and the treasure box outside the inn.

Chen Ping'an stood outside the door for a moment.

Inside the door, Pei Qian, who bolted the door, pressed his back against the door, raised his two slender arms, and covered his little charcoal-like face with the back of his hand.

On the roof of the inn, the culprit in white lay on his back, his head resting on his arm, as if smiling.

Lu Baixiang was concentrating on music in the house.

It is in the Haoran world is very prestigious "Caiyun Spectrum", Caiyun ten games, all kinds of chess games derived from this, some people specialize in "hand cutting" Caiyun Bureau, some people only study the subtlety of Caiyun ten games, it is said that this score, I don't know how many wild chess masters who run the rivers and lakes have been fed.

Only on playing chess, Lu Baixiang has no opponent in the lotus flower blessed land, when he first arrived in the world, he thinks very highly of himself about chess, but when he inadvertently got this "Caiyun Spectrum", he knew what it means to have a sky outside the sky, and there are people outside the world. The more you study, the more you realize the depth of the chess strength of both sides of the game, not to mention the city lord of the White Emperor City who "raises the world's chess first", only said that he is qualified to play against this demon giant in the colorful clouds, although he has lost a lot, but he does not look at every "back hand" of the White Emperor City, and takes out the layout of this master alone, step by step, it is simply necessary to teach all the people who play the score in later generations only feel that there are gusts of wind and thunder, revealing the paper, rushing to the face, which is suffocating.

So that Lu Baixiang searched and collected most of the chess games of this master, and finally came to a conclusion, this person's chess skills can be called "flawless shortcuts", and most of the chess masters in the world have a very high evaluation of this person, roughly there are three points, one is to damage the local situation, and seek the overall situation, breaking the existing conclusion of the golden horn and silver edge grass belly, and the other is that although this person's chess skills are occasionally sharp and bloody, this person can generally afford to "dilute the charm, and be subtle and lofty" Although after a hundred years, most of them have been cracked by chess masters one by one, or directly in the Caiyun Ten Games, the first time it came out, it was seen through by the city lord of the White Emperor City, but all the people who watched the chess through the Caiyun spectrum had to be shocked and amazed by this person's whimsy, giving people the feeling that this person and all the chess players in the world were not playing the same kind of chess at all.

The reason why he lost to the city lord of White Emperor City, Lu Baixiang can only say that this life is not at the right time, and he happened to meet such a monster who has no one before and no one after him, because the latter "has already gained the avenue".

Lu Baixiang turned over and studied this "Caiyun Spectrum", and after thinking about it, he could probably only use "no wrong hands, no faint tricks" to describe this notorious Confucian master.

Lu Baixiang once said with a smile to Chen Ping'an that the biggest hope in this life is to be able to travel to the White Emperor City, but deep down in Lu Baixiang's heart, the person who wants to play the game the most is not the city lord of the White Emperor City, but the "Cui??" , Mr. Cui Da.

Lu Baixiang put down the chess game and sighed.

White Emperor City should be able to go to it, sooner or later, but can it be with Cui?? Ten rounds of hand talk, it is quite hopeless.

Although Choi?? Now it is the national teacher of the Dali Dynasty where Chen Ping'an's hometown is located, but looking at people with chess, it can be roughly seen that this person's morale is extremely high. It is also extremely difficult to talk as desired.

Because Lu Baixiang knew that his chess strength was not enough.

It's just that later generations ruined chess because of people, especially Tongyezhou and Aquarius, deliberately lowered the evaluation of this Mr. Cui Da's chess ability.

Lu Baixiang was fascinated by the three bold words that this person left for future generations.

"It doesn't matter how you make the first move. ”

"The official bureau is to clean up the battlefield, who wants to say that the official is invincible or something like that, just laugh and be generous. ”

"Black chess to learn that horse fighting, white chess to learn me Cui?? , let the chess learn the city lord of the White Emperor City, learn the horse fighter, can learn seven or eight points, learn Cui?? can learn five or six points, learn from the city lord of the White Emperor City, and learn in vain. ”

Lu Baixiang took a deep breath, glanced at the chessboard on the table, and was about to get up to find Cui Dongshan, estimating that he could try out this person's catties and two catties in a best-of-three system.

When Lu Baixiang walked out of the house, he found Wei Xian walking back to the house with a strange expression.

Lu Baixiang turned the corridor and knocked on the door of the room a little farther away, Wei Xian stood on the fork and asked, "Looking for Cui Dongshan?"

Lu Baixiang nodded.

Wei Xian waved his hand and said: "No need to go, this guy also made a bet with Zhu Yong, he has already left the county seat at this time, and Sui has followed." ”

Lu Baixiang was puzzled: "What are you betting on?"

Wei Xian said: "Cui Dongshan said that he wanted to fight with Zhu Yong, as long as Zhu Yong won, he will take out a close thing to send Zhu Yong, if Zhu Yong loses, he will give him Cui Dongshan a supper every day in the future." ”

Lu Baixiang smiled: "Zhu Yong actually agreed?"

Wei Xian hesitated and scratched his head, "Of course Zhu Yong didn't agree at first, after all, Pei Qian was so miserable, and Zhu Yong was afraid of following in his footsteps, but Cui Dongshan said that he could stand still." Zhu Yong still didn't nod, and the guy said that he didn't move his hands and feet. Zhu Yong asked him if he was an Earth Immortal Sword Cultivator, and Cui Dongshan said that he was definitely not a Sword Cultivator. So Zhu Yong agreed. Sui followed to the right to see the excitement. ”

Only half an hour later, Cui Dongshan returned to the inn with a hippie smile, followed by Sui You, who had a strange face, and of course, Zhu Yong, who was gray-haired.

Zhu Yong went straight to his room and slammed the door shut.

Lu Baixiang, who was meditating in the house, didn't ask much, Sui walked into the house on the right, sat opposite each other, and said to Lu Baixiang: "Cui Dongshan said that he will come over to learn chess from you soon." ”

Lu Baixiang smiled and asked, "How did Zhu Yong lose? Didn't he sneak into the Eight Realms martial arts not long ago?"

Sui said helplessly: "That guy is indeed not moving, but this person is ...... There are a lot of magic weapons on his body, and from beginning to end, Zhu Yong has not been able to get within ten feet, just like walking a dog. Even if I am against this person, I am also no better than Zhu Yong. ”

Lu Baixiang poured a cup of tea for Sui's right, but Sui's right side didn't drink tea, shook his head and said, "If you play chess, I won't watch it." ”

Lu Baixiang smiled and asked, "What, do you think I don't have much chance of winning?"

Sui stood up on the right side, "I don't think this person's chess skills are very high, I just believe in one thing, as long as he gambles with others, it seems that he is not likely to lose." ”

The thing that chilled Zhu Yong's heart the most was that this person stood in place, controlling the magic weapons of "endless and dazzling", so that Zhu Yong couldn't raise his head and didn't say anything, and he would shout at Zhu Yong, and then his face was full of regret, saying that you Zhu Yong is an ant who follows my husband, and you really only have to cook.

And the thing that made Sui's right almost sword was that the guy said Zhu Yong, and squinted at her from the corner of his eye, saying that you are slightly better, after all, you look quite eye-catching, my husband may sleep with his right side every night.

Lu Baixiang fell into deep thought, and after leaving on the right side of Sui, he habitually flipped through the "Caiyun Spectrum".

It didn't take long for the white-clothed young man to come to the door, snorting melon seeds all the way, and after entering the door, before he sat down, he saw the chess game that Lu Baixiang had just put in his hand, and said in a daze: "You just look at this thing, learn life and death, chess tendons, chess formulas and chess theory?"

Lu Baixiang asked rhetorically, "What's wrong?"

Cui Dongshan sighed, sat opposite Lu Baixiang, and said with a sad face: "Forget it, I won't learn chess with you." ”

Lu Baixiang frowned, twisted a chess piece on his fingertips, and asked, "Why is this?"

Cui Dongshan held the melon seeds deceived from Pei Qian in one hand, and the idle hand, stretched out an index finger, pointed at Lu Baixiang casually, and then raised his thumb and pointed to himself, "You still learn chess with me." ”
