Chapter 1: The Lonely Boy

Next Chapter

It is a remote village with only a few dozen families, standing on the hill and surrounded by lush forests.

Several low-rise buildings are regularly distributed among the trees, and the smoke curls quietly, peacefully.

"On the day of the horse, the elephant walks the field, the cannon fights across the mountain, the car walks in a straight line, the general does not go out of the city, and the pawn does not return to the hometown. "A little boy squatted in the sand, babbling some mantras, shouting in his hands, pinching a branch, and tirelessly drawing simple chess games on the sand.

"It's a little bit, I'm reciting the mantra again. A boy of twelve or thirteen years old walked by, dressed in green clothes and carrying a small basket in his hand.

"Yes. When the little kid heard the words, he stopped what he was doing, turned around, flashed his big bright eyes, and shouted with a smile: "His biological brother is going to see his grandfather again?"

"Yes. He replied.

"I'm going too. The little boy's eyes lit up, patted the sand on his hands, and ran over to him, holding his unborn hand. Raising his head, he asked curiously, "Is it Grandpa's death day again?"

Wei Qisheng raised his head to look at the sun directly above, his eyes were a little painful from the dazzling light, and he squinted: "Yes, it's been three years, and grandpa has been dead for three years." ”

"It's been three years. The little kid clicked his other hand and counted carefully.

"Let's go. He breathed a sigh of relief before he grew, revealing a sunny and resolute smile, like a sparkling drop of water in the afternoon sun.

A gust of wind blew and ruffled a few leaves, and the leaves flew on the tree-lined path.

"Brother Qisheng, do you say that the horse is powerful, or the cannon is powerful. ”

"Each has its own strengths, each has its own use, in fact, there is no difference between being powerful and not powerful, only using it well. ”

"My brother said nonsense, I think the car is the most powerful, and it doesn't matter if it is used well. ”

"Hehe, it also makes sense, the car is more free and unscrupulous. ”

"It's just that the car is rampage, and it's extremely powerful. ”

He talked and laughed with the little boy, walked through a tree-lined path, and came to a small hill with a small raised dirt slope, on which green grass grew and swayed in the wind. There is a stone tablet standing on the small dirt slope, on which are written four dripping characters - the tomb of Weiyun.

Wei Qisheng walked over and touched the words on the stele, as if he was touching an old man, who has a long history and a long stream. Fingers slid over the nick, like words carved into the heart.

"Grandpa, I'm here. ”

The little kid didn't bother with the unborn very reasonably, but took out the things in the basket very obediently and placed them in front of the tomb, very familiar, as if he had done something many times.

"His biological brother is really lonely, and he has been alone for three years. Since I was a child, I didn't know where my parents were, only Grandpa Weiyun was with him, and three years ago, Grandpa Weiyun was forced to death by the wicked. The little boy had red eyes and put his pink fist over the corners of his eyes. "Luckily, I have my mom and dad and my grandfather. ”

He remembered the day three years ago, when the middle-aged man with a fierce appearance and a large scar on his face came to the village. At a glance, you can see that he is a person who is disgusted by chess, because he has a thick, lingering evil aura in him.

The middle-aged man with the big scar is named Basso, a well-known chess demon, who specializes in provoking challenges everywhere, desperate, crazy and murderous. Playing chess with him must be a covenant with life, and he will never die, in the hope of gaining the approval of Heaven and becoming a stronger chess player.

As soon as Basso came to the village, he attracted the attention of all the villagers, everyone was scared and simple, not knowing what this Basso wanted to do. And as the most powerful person in the village, Weiyun, stood up and confronted Basso.

Basso smiled and looked at the old man in front of him, gray-haired, wrinkled, with a pipe in his mouth. "You are the most powerful and only first-level chess player in the village?"

"It's the old man Weiyun, do you have any advice?" Weiyun squinted and said coldly.

"My name is Basso and I'm a ninth-level chess player. Basso pointed at himself, condescendingly, and said proudly, "I'm here today to fight against you." ”

"What if I refuse?"

"That seems a little tricky if that's the case, but I've never been empty-handed when you're going to toast without drinking. Basso smirked at Weiyun, the long scar on his face made him look very hideous, terrifying, like a devil from hell. "What I have is a way to make you bow your head. ”

"I hate people threatening me the most in my life, especially a person who doesn't know the height of the sky. Weiyun squinted, took a long puff of his cigarette, and turned to leave.

Basso smirked twice, "You brought it on yourself." Then he suddenly pointed to the unborn, "You, yes, boy, that's you." ”

Wei Qisheng looked at Basso in shock, not knowing why.

"How dare you fight me? Bassylo stuck out his scarlet tongue and licked the corners of his mouth.

The seven words flashed like thunder in the heart of the unborn, shattering the light that illuminated his heart, leaving the boundless darkness, "I, I..." He lowered his head and looked at his own shadow on the ground.

"How dare I? I'm not even a first-class chess player. ”

"Why don't I have anything, I can't do anything, it's so useless. Grandpa taught me, do I remember it?"

"Is it true that a manly man can't say he doesn't dare, and whether a manly man should dare to face a challenge, even if it is death. ”

"You. As soon as Weiyun heard Basso's words, he knew that it was not good, and a fierce fire suddenly rose in his heart, as if he was about to burn everything, and he turned around angrily, his eyes were red, like an angry old lion, and his eyes were about to burst. "You bastard, you are despicable. ”

"Hehe, you old horseman, tell me not to me off. Basso looked at the angry Weiyun, not at all afraid.

"My eyes are very spicy, and I can spot a person's weaknesses at once. I could see at once the psychological darkness of this child, that he was a lonely child, that he had the deepest darkness in the whole world. With a single blow, I can easily sink the light in his heart, and you must know that once a person has no light in his heart, he can easily fall into demons or die easily. Because in this world where chess is respected, the strength and brightness of the heart are so important, so important that they can destroy a person or achieve a person. If he answers, then he will surely die. If he refuses, then his future path will be decided, and there will be no future to hope for, and he will completely become a mentally shadowed waste. ”

Wei Qisheng, who had a black face and lowered his head, seemed to have made up his mind, like a drop of water falling on the calm lake in his heart, rippling with a trace of ripples, in his dark heart, suddenly a demon ran out, fangs and claws, unscrupulous, he resolutely raised his head, met Basso's condescending gaze, his eyes were full of terrible brilliance, opened his mouth, as if he was about to spit out a sharp sword, and said word by word: "Come to war." ”

Wei Qisheng grabbed in front of Wei Qisheng's body, grabbed Wei Qisheng's arm and shook it, "Qisheng, the devil's language can't infect your heart, you have to learn to be strong yourself." There is no light in this world without darkness, and it is precisely because of darkness that the beauty of light is proven. You have to find for yourself, the light that sticks to your heart. ”

"I'm not afraid, grandpa. ”

"In his life, you are still young, and there is a good tomorrow waiting for you to run, don't rush to conclusions. ”

"Is there still hope for tomorrow if you are so afraid? Is there still hope? He is just a ninth-level chess player, he dares to challenge you, he doesn't dare, why can't I dare? My parents left me since I was a child, and they didn't care about me at all, they didn't dare, why didn't I dare? Xiao He was a chess player at a young age, why did he dare to go out, didn't dare, why couldn't I dare?"

"It's not like that. Qi Yun Lao burst into tears, choked up but couldn't speak, just hugged Wei Qisheng tightly, afraid that he would run away.

"Grandpa taught him a lesson for you. Weiyun let go of Weiqisheng, protected him behind him, and looked at Basso, "I promise your challenge." ”

"I don't want to fight you just yet, I just want to play against this brave kid. Basso cracked his mouth and smiled, the scar like a furrow, splitting a face into two. "Anyway, he has already said yes, then I might as well obey my fate with respect, otherwise I wouldn't have fallen into my own prestige and been provoked by a child. ”

Wei Qisheng's face was black, his fists were clenched, and his eyes were full of endless darkness, like thick ink, which was soul-stirring.

Weiyun held Weiqisheng's hand and let him relax.

"Basso, I actually agreed, then you don't talk nonsense, there is no trace of nonsense, just open the skylight and say something. I know that a person like you is only useful if he defeats someone of the same level or higher, and he is not a first-level chess player, so it is useless to defeat him. Besides, everyone knows that fighting at the same level is useful, and skipping the level will skip the level. And a high-level chess player to challenge a low-level chess player is not ashamed, and the chess way will also be shameful to you, you will be marked, and your body will become rotten and sick. ”

"Hehe, are you scaring me? But this kid isn't even a chess player, so I won't care about him like him. Baso paused, took his eyes off his life, and moved to Weiyun's body, revealing a crazy expression, like a bloodthirsty monster licking the corners of his mouth. "As long as I defeat you, a first-level chess master, then I will make up enough ten, and I can be promoted to a chess master. ”

"Hmph. If you lose, you get out of the village at once, and never come again. ”

"Oh, no, no, no, I think you're mistaken. Our rules are like this, if I lose, then I'm dead. And if you lose, then you die. Basso laughed, silent and terrible.

"What. Everyone in the village looked up at the demonic man in front of them. Wei Qisheng also raised his head, his eyes full of doubt and fear, and his eyes shook violently.

"Are you a chess demon? ”

"Yes. Basso grinned, revealing a disgusting scarlet tongue, "There is no other choice but life and death." ”

Weiyun lowered his head, as if he was thinking about something. Everyone else looked at the only chess player in the village, nervously awaiting his decision.

"Grandpa. "Weiqi's frightened shaking arm. He is not afraid of anything else, what he fears most is the loss of the most important person in his life. Although he believed in Weiyun's strength, he didn't dare to take risks, as long as there was a little risk, he was not willing to take it. He's already lonely.

If grandpa is gone, then what will he do. At that time, he must have sunk into the inky black waters, and even if he opened his eyes, he could not see, the world was dark, and there was no end to darkness. Grandpa is the only bit of light in his life at the moment, a ray of light that tears through the black curtain.

"In his life, I am your grandfather - Weiyun. Weiyun turned his head and smiled indifferently at Weiqisheng, and only said this sentence.

In an instant, he felt that his soul had left his body, and he was fluttering. He saw the leaves flying, and the wind blowing the trees. He saw the white bird flying freely. He saw the blue sky and white clouds. I also saw my body and my grandfather Weiyun.
