Qin Mo is working hard for tomorrow's match, and his opponent Li Shengcai is no exception.

Youlan Valley, where the Qindao branch is located.

As a pre-test talent and a seed player in the competition of the four colleges, Li Shengcai enjoys better conditions than other children.

This is first reflected in the accommodation, his room is very large, more than five zhang wide, one zhang three deep, the room on the left is the bedroom, and the rest is the living room and practice room.

The furnishings in the room are also very exquisite, and all kinds of furniture and accessories are exquisite.

Such conditions have surpassed those of the teachers of the Calligraphy Branch, and are even no less than the only doctor in the academy of Gu Meng.

Li Shengcai sat behind a low table with a seven-string guqin in front of him.

Directly in front of him, three priests dressed in lifting costumes sat cross-legged on the futon, and the first one said confidently: "According to the policy we have formulated, you will definitely be able to defeat Qin Mo and win tomorrow's competition." ”

Another instructor added: "Gu Meng has already exhausted his donkey skills, and if he doesn't have more powerful skills to hand over to Qin Mo, it can be determined that he has no chance to make a surprise move." ”

The other person shook his head and said: "Gu Meng is still very powerful, mainly in terms of time, he has an empty stomach of knowledge, but it is impossible to hand it all over to Qin Mo overnight." Li Shengcai, you still have to be careful, Qin Mo can win the first round, and his strength should not be underestimated. ”

Li Shengcai nodded and said, "The three teachers can rest assured that the students will go all out in tomorrow's competition to defeat the number one child in the world." ”

The three priests looked relieved, and the leader said, "It's not too early, you should hurry up and rest, and review tonight's content again tomorrow morning, and the most important thing is to maintain a calm mind." ”

With that, the three of them stood up together.

The students sent the three teachings. ”

It was these three guys who went to the grass house to eavesdrop before, and they thought they knew each other.

The next day, it was rainy.

The light rain fell all morning, but fortunately it abated after lunch, and although it did not stop completely, it did not affect today's game.

The most important thing is that the enthusiasm of the audience was not affected by the rain.

Qin Mo came here surrounded by his classmates, and noticed a few sharp gazes shooting over, and when he looked up, it turned out to be three players from the Qindao Branch, namely Ma Zhong, Li Shengcai and Xu Chengye.

Ma Zhong's gaze is the most complicated, in addition to contempt, there are many meanings such as ridicule.

Xu Chengye was a little more hateful, and he lost to Qin Mo twice, which made him feel very shameless.

Only Li Sheng was quite calm, but Qin Mo was still keenly aware of a trace of excitement on his face, obviously he was complacent about being able to defeat the number one child in the world.

Qin Mo smiled indifferently and walked to the rest area with everyone.

Xu Chengye gritted his teeth and said, "Both of you have seen it, people don't take us seriously at all." ”

Ma Zhongheng said with a smile: "The guy with his eyes above the top, let him taste failure in a while, Brother Li, it's up to you today." ”

Li Shengcai took a deep breath and said, "No problem. ”

A moment later, the court supervisor and court judge came to the scene, and Gu Meng and others also appeared.

The court judge first repeats the rules of the game, and then announces the scoring method for the second round, which is different from the one point in the first round, and the winner of this round gets two points, and the losing team does not score.

Then, the superintendent announced the start of the competition and the contestants entered.

Qin Mo stood behind the bookcase, frowning slightly.

He saw that in front of his opponent Li Shengcai was not a bookcase, but a few shorter.

Li Shengcai walked in with a brocade bag nearly four feet long, took out a seven-stringed guqin and put it on the table.

The lyre was produced in the Western Zhou Dynasty and was made by adding two strings on the basis of the Fuxi five-stringed piano.

Originally, there were only five strings in Fuxiqin, which corresponded to the five tones of Gongshang Jiao Zhengyu, and also corresponded to the five elements of gold, wood, water, fire, and earth.

It is rumored that at that time, King Wen Ji Chang missed his son Bo Yi Kao, who was in Chaoge, and added a string to the Fuxi qin, and later King Wu Ji Fa also added one to form the later Wenwu lyre.

Many people find it strange because Li Shengcai has never used the guqin in the previous three competitions, and has always used bamboo fungus.

After placing the lyre, he took out a handful of bamboo fungus from the brocade bag and placed it in the right corner of the case.

Apparently he hid his strength in the first round, and apart from a few well-connected classmates, few people knew that he was proficient in the guqin.

He glanced at Qin Mo with a provocative gaze, with a smug look on his face.

The people in the Shudao Branch were all dumbfounded, and Sun Yi frowned and said, "What can I do about this?"

"Yes, I don't know if the head of the Qin case has the skills to fight the guqin. Ma Chongming was also worried.

Guqin and bamboo fungus are two very different instruments, and playing the same piece will present different effects, which can be described as a world of difference.

Since Li Shengcai had used bamboo fungus before, as his opponent, of course he would focus on the skills to deal with bamboo fungus, who would have thought that he would suddenly switch to using the guqin, which would be unexpected.

In order to achieve the result of the sudden rise in the second round of the game, he did not hesitate to lose the game in the third game of the first round.

Qin Mo stretched his brows, stretched out his hand to make a gesture of invitation, and said, "Gentleman's agreement, senior, please go first." ”

Li Shengcai didn't bother to be polite to him, and directly made a request: "Don't use Wenbao." ”

Xu Chengye reminded him, saying that Qin Mo had an ancient seal with strong defensive power, which could play a role at a critical time, and if he wanted to win more securely, he couldn't leave him a chance to use Wenbao.

Qin Mo smiled faintly and said meaningfully: "My request is that it is forbidden to use two kinds of stationery of the same Wendao. ”

As soon as these words came out, everyone was in an uproar.

Especially Li Shengcai himself, the smug look on his face disappeared without a trace in an instant, replaced by surprise and a little anger, he stared at Qin Mo with wide eyes.

In the previous three games, Qin Mo had never changed the gentleman's agreement, and each time he asked that there should be no repetition, which was one of the most common requirements.

Everyone thought that he would make the same request today, because he played a big role in the previous games, often making the opponent constrained, and there was no reason to make a substitution.

In fact, before Qin Mo saw Li Shengcai show off the two musical instruments, qin and sheng, he also didn't think about replacing the gentleman's agreement.

The purpose of this is to cause trouble to the other party.

It is not difficult to see from Li Shengcai's performance that he made the right bet.

Although Li Shengcai can use the guqin, he is not much stronger than the bamboo fungus in terms of skills, strictly speaking, it is equal, and the change to the guqin is to catch Qin Mo off guard, and at the same time he did not give up the bamboo fungus, this is to achieve the purpose of double insurance.

Because he has been using bamboo fungus for a long time recently, although he will also practice quietly in the dead of night, but in terms of proficiency, the guqin is obviously inferior to bamboo fungus.

In order to ensure that there are no mistakes in the competition, he specially brought two instruments to cooperate with each other and try not to make mistakes.

At the same time, using two different instruments, even if the same repertoire is played one after another, the rule of "no repetitive content is allowed" can be opened, which is specially used to deal with Qin Mo's commonly used gentleman's agreement.

But Li Shengcai didn't expect that his idea of a chicken thief seemed to be hidden, but in fact, it had been exposed as early as when the two musical instruments were revealed.

As an opponent, of course Qin Mo couldn't let him get his wish, the arrogance of the Qindao Branch and the listening behavior last night had fundamentally changed his opinion of Qindao Tongsheng, and he decided not to let him go in the game.

In other words, Li Shengcai had to choose between two kinds of stationery and choose one of them to discard.

Choosing the guqin, he was a little uncertain in his heart;

When choosing bamboo fungus, the careful arrangements made before will be in vain.

He gritted his teeth, picked up the bamboo fungus and threw it to his classmates behind him, and decided to use the guqin.

Now that the piano has been lit up, if you don't use it, the opponent in the next game will also be prepared, and it really won't play any role.

On the other hand, Qin Mo, the gentleman's agreement had no effect on him, whether it was the use of two brushes to open the bow left and right, or the use of chess and calligraphy, it had nothing to do with "two stationery of the same text".

Because the brush belongs to the same type of stationery and is not within the scope of restrictions, the fighting chess belongs to another piece of chess and is not restricted.

Gu Meng was the first to understand, and said with a smile: "Ziyi is really wise, just using a gentleman's agreement to turn the other party's advantage into a disadvantage, and his own side will not be affected." ”

The three instructors who guided Li Shengcai last night were pale, and before the game began, their players had already suffered a big loss, and the situation was very unfavorable.

The referee gave the order: "The game begins." ”

Li Shengcai sat cross-legged, pressed the strings with his left hand, and plucked the first syllable with his right hand.

Qin Mo's speed is also very fast, his right hand picks up the Zizhu Spring and Autumn Pen, dips it in ink to write at the same time, and picks up a red "Tiger" chess with his left hand, the cyclone in the Wen Palace [one heart and two uses] rotates rapidly, and the amplified Wen Li is divided into two strands, which go to the left and right arms respectively, one is input into the pen barrel, and one enters the chess piece.

The chess piece is the first to shine brightly, and in front of him it gradually takes the form of an illusory saber-toothed tiger, with obvious bison characteristics - three-inch horns growing on either side of his forehead.

Because this piece is made of horns, it will have similar bestiality features.

The tiger's transition from illusory to physical was a little slow, and it was not until the other person blew the sixth syllable that it opened its mouth and let out a roar, and its two front paws reached forward more than three feet in a stretching motion.

Wow!

The sound of the waves sounded quietly, and someone in the audience exclaimed: "Six tones out of the waves, Li Shengcai's guqin attainments should not be underestimated!"

In the first round of the competition, he used the bamboo fungus to achieve five tones out of the waves, although now he uses one more note, but after all, he turned the bamboo fungus into a guqin, which is even more valuable.

The saber-toothed tiger kicked the ground with its strong limbs and pounced on Li Shengcai.

Li Shengcai was not in a hurry, pressing the tail of the two strings with the index finger and middle finger of his right hand, and plucking the two strings with these two fingers with his left hand at the same time.

Zheng!

"This is [two-tone unison], he is just a pre-trial talent, how can he do it?" someone exclaimed.

Rushing!

The sound of the waves suddenly became louder, and the saber-toothed tiger came to a place four feet away from Li Shengcai in one vertical leap, and the next vertical leap could attack him.

But before the saber-toothed tiger could jump, a sudden wave of blue water rushed over, instantly reaching the top of its feet and reaching the knee joint.

The crowd was hooked, the competition was so intense at the beginning, and it will definitely be more exciting in the future.
