Chapter 22: The Game of Chess
A few days later
"Ernie sauce, what have you been busy with these days, I can't catch your shadow almost every day"
"Sister, did I find something fun?"
As she spoke, Yuan Ying threw the book she had been holding in her hand towards the sea of clouds.
Yunhai took a look and found that it was - "The Book of Chess"?
"What are you doing studying chess these days? It's really rare, I thought you had no other hobbies besides eating, drinking, and having fun! I didn't tell a lie, why did you beat me?!"
"Even if it's the truth, you can't talk nonsense, do you know what to say?" Yuan Ying withdrew the hand that had just hit Yun Hai's head angrily. "It just so happens that the research in the past few days is also a bit of a doorway, you can also look at what is written on the top, and after an hour, accompany me to play a game. β
"It's so unfair, you've been studying it for a few days, and I still don't know anything about chess now, even if it takes an hour, what can I do?"
"Comments?"
"Yes!"
"Opinion reservation!"
Half an hour later.
"Play like this, play this book like this, it looks like nonsense, playing chess should be a kaleidoscopic activity, why is this book so rigidly prescribed?"
Yunhai couldn't stand it more and more, and in a fit of anger, he threw it away, but not far away, a cry of pain came.
"Who is so blind that they throw books?!"
"Senior Brother Jiang, Senior Sister Shen?" Yun Hai turned his head and found that it was Jiang Hao and Shen Mengxue, who seemed to be taking a walk, and Jiang Hao was still rubbing his red nose, looking funny, and the corners of Shen Mengxue's mouth next to him were slightly upturned, and it seemed that it was very hard to endure without laughing.
"Yun Gongzi is reading here?"
"Well, but this doesn't feel like it's anything useful at all."
"Hey, it's still the Book of Chess, I didn't expect you kid to be obsessed with playing chess?"
Jiang Hao still didn't miss the opportunity to sarcastically sarcastically mock Yunhai.
"Senior Brother Jiang, don't bully Yun Gongzi"
"No, Mengxue, you're my girlfriend, how can you help this guy?"
Shen Mengxue glared at Jiang Hao and turned her gaze to the sea of clouds.
"Speaking of which, this Book of Chess is a must-read book for beginners in chess, but why does Yun Gongzi think that this book is useless?"
"I think that the game of chess itself is ever-changing, and there are so many possibilities for every move, but this book says that the game of chess, which is obviously very flexible, is so rigid."
At this moment, it was Shen Mengxue's turn and Jiang Hao to be surprised.
"I didn't expect Yun Gongzi to have such a unique insight into chess, in this case, can you play a game with the little girl?"
"Well, please be merciful to Senior Sister Shen. β
"I said Brother Yunhai, Mengxue is proficient in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, but it's not something that a novice like you can defeat?"
"Senior Brother Jiang!" Shen Mengxue interrupted Jiang Hao's words. "Yun Gongzi don't have pressure, just play your own level. β
Ten minutes later
"This"
Beads of sweat oozed from Shen Mengxue's forehead slightly, and she hesitated, not knowing whether it would be better to continue to attack or defend for a while.
She didn't expect that although Yunhai was a novice, he didn't have the stereotypical thinking of a chess player like herself, he was simply moving at will, playing as he wanted, and he was completely unpredictable. Often he planned to block, but he had already jumped out of the encirclement, and when he began to attack, he seemed to be dying, and began to attack himself frantically, forcing himself to turn back to rescue.
"Senior Sister Shen, what's wrong?"
Yun Hai saw that Shen Mengxue had hesitated for a long time, and looked very nervous, and guessed what the other party was doing.
Finally, Shen Mengxue sighed lightly and threw the chess pieces in her hand on the chessboard.
"I lost, Yun Gongzi. β
"Really?" Yun Hai didn't understand why Shen Mengxue wanted to admit defeat. "You look like you have a lot of space to go?"
"This little chess girl has fallen into complete passivity, and if it goes on like this, it is only a matter of time before she fails. Shen Mengxue looked at the sea of clouds incredulously. "Speaking of which, although I am not a master in chess, I also have some level, and I will be defeated by you as a pure novice, please tell me how you did it?"
Yunhai looked at Jiang Hao and found that this guy was looking at himself with the eyes of a monster.
"Actually, it's nothing, I think it's like a game of chess, it's like a fight, and it's like arranging troops, and the reason is the same. β
"It's the same as the fighting method and the formation of troops, why didn't I think of it," Shen Mengxue muttered. "I've been taught, Yun Gongzi, I didn't expect that you are not only extremely talented in fighting methods, but also so powerful in this game of chess!
"Who?"
"When you come, you'll know the way. β
Shen Mengxue suddenly thought of something, pulled up the sea of clouds and rushed out of the house, leaving Jiang Hao in place.
"Hey, Mengxue, where are you going?"
Ten minutes later, Shen Mengxue and Yun Hai came to a corner room in the Library Pavilion.
"Yun Gongzi, the person I'm talking about is inside, he is my father's uncle, a great character, you must not lose your manners. β
"Uncle Shen's uncle, isn't that Uncle Shen?"
Yunhai feels incredible when he thinks about it.
"But, after all, he is old, and his temper is a little weird," Shen Mengxue smiled bitterly when she thought of this. "Anyway, when you go in, you'll know the way. β
"Uh, okay. β
With that, the two entered the room.
"Shen Mengxue visits her uncle"
"Hurry up, please. Yunhai raised his head and found that the person in front of him was an old man with a white beard, and there was no way to judge how long he lived, but he was afraid that this person was already a hundred years old, and some people would believe it. He was wearing a cyan robe, his beard was nearly a meter long, and the muscles on his face were very dry, but his eyes looked very bright, and he looked like a master of cultivation.
"I said you girl, you usually run around and mess around, but you don't come to me to see my old bones, why are you in a hurry today?"
"Uncle Shi, I can bring you a chess genius today, obviously you have no foundation at all, and you can defeat me!"
"Although your level is not very good, it is really strange that a novice can beat you. Where are the others?"
"Don't say that I'm so unbearable!" Shen Mengxue retorted loudly. "The others are here. β
As she spoke, Shen Mengxue pointed to the sea of clouds kneeling on the ground next to her.
"Oh, what about someone here? I'm sorry, I'm old, my eyes are bad, and I haven't seen it."
"Uh, Yunhai has seen Uncle Shi" Yunhai felt more and more that he had been pitted by Shen Mengxue, he glared at Shen Mengxue, who was snickering beside him, and continued to reply: "The disciple worshiped under the first Yuan Ye sect of Yuheng Peak a year ago. β
"The sea of clouds? Could it be the sea of clouds that Danqing has always told me in the past few days that he went into the tiger's den alone and worked together with Yuan Ying, two young offspring, to exterminate the bandits?"
"yes, that's it. Shen Mengxue gave an affirmative answer.
"The younger generation is ashamed, this incident was caused by my impulsiveness, and it almost caused a catastrophe, and it was praised so by everyone"
"It's really nice for young people to have this kind of heart. Don't be arrogant, which many adults can't do. In that case, Mengxue girl, come forward. β
"Huh, why is it my business?"
"You and this little brother of Yunhai have a fight, on the one hand, to see his talent, and on the other hand, to see if you have practiced hard in the past few years. β
"Uncle Shi, I don't have a problem with letting me beat this guy, but what's the matter with you calling him little brother, is it possible that I want to call this guy Uncle Zu?"
"Hmm. β
Shen Mengxue suddenly became angry, she didn't dare to lose her temper with her uncle and ancestor, so she had to stare at Yunhai hatefully, looking like she was going to eat him.
Yun Hai instantly felt extremely happy, as if all the imbalances that had been ignored just now had been recovered. "Come on, call Uncle Shi Ancestor?"
"Call you a big-headed ghost?!"
Shen Mengxue grabbed a piano on the table next to her, held it in her arms, and played it casually, and several chilling sword qi burst out!
"Hey, this is going to do it, helpββββ"
"Huhu" Yunhai gasped, looking helplessly at Shen Mengxue, who was still angry. "I said, Senior Sister Shen, can we stop making trouble, I can't admit defeat"
Although Yun Hai relied on the power of the Gu Sword and the Thunder Slash, he was not defeated, but in the face of Shen Mengxue's wave after wave of attacks, he began to feel that his true qi was drained.
In the Tianzheng Sect, the practice of the sword has become the mainstream, and the vast majority of disciples have also chosen the sword as their blade, but there are always some mavericks who choose other weapons, such as Shen Mengxue, who is known as the Qin Se Fairy, she abandoned the swordsmanship such as the Ten Styles of Breaking the Heavens, and went to learn the ** with musical instruments as weapons.
In today's China, there are very few people who use musical instruments as weapons, and Shen Mengxue is one of them. It is said that the source of the Tianzheng Sect's cultivation method, Fu Xi, is also the inventor of the music rhythm, he relied on a Fu Xi qin to play all things in heaven and earth, and also invented the method of transforming music into a sharp weapon to hurt the enemy.
But Yun Hai has never seen a similar opponent at all, and what's even worse is that Shen Mengxue has practiced since he was a child, and his Emperor Tianzheng's attainments are far stronger than Yun Hai, who has just started for a year, even if Yun Hai is extremely talented, there is still no hope of winning under Shen Mengxue's repeated bombardment.
"Senior Sister Shen, I said that I admit defeat!
Yunhai begged for mercy vigorously, but Shen Mengxue didn't appreciate it at all, snorted and snorted again, and rowed towards Yunhai.
