In the afternoon, Don came to the gate of Shanhai City again.

"Why are you here? Jack sprang out from the side.

"There was a bit of a delay...... Didn't you say that the chess stall has been there for the past few days?"

"Who knows if he'll come today...... Anyway, if we just find a place to rob him, won't it be over? Why do you have to go over there? ”

"Let's go check it out first, let's go!"

The lunch of the Gray Clothes Army is the amount of food for hundreds of people, so the speed is naturally not much faster. After eating, Don explained to Darren that he was going to Shanhai City to do some errands. Let them go first, and then leave a sign in a hidden place on the road.

As for what to do, it is naturally to get back that high-level fighting spirit method.

These days are the Day of Divine Grace, so the crowd in Shanhai City seems to be very dense. The streets were crowded with joy, and everyone seemed to have received the so-called divine grace with joy on their faces.

After walking for about a few dozen minutes, Jack led Donn to the corner of a small square.

At this time, there were already a lot of people gathered here, including noble, cloth-clothed civilians, etc., who were talking about something in a whisper.

"Win again, God, he's already won fifteen games in a row!"

"Fifteen, counting the first three days, he has won hundreds of games, and he has not lost a single one. ”

"Hey, so powerful? His sign is so eye-catching, why doesn't there be a master to come and kill him?"

"Master?, the one who was defeated just now was the owner of the general's chess hall in the city, and he didn't make it for twenty minutes...... It's a pity that he even lost the Pure Gold Pavilion card!"

"This ......"

......

Listening to the exclamations of the crowd, Donn and Jack squeezed into the crowd.

First of all, two wooden pole signboards with white cloth and black letters come into view, "Bran second chess player" and "first has not yet been produced"

Tsk, arrogant enough...... Don smacked his lips.

Under the signboard is a cross-legged seat. The man in the purple hooded robe, as he looked down at the chessboard. So you can't tell the difference between men and women. Behind the purple-robed man were two expressionless men standing with their hands tied, like guards.

There are a bunch of miscellaneous things next to these two guards, some are jeweled, some are strange, and the most domineering is undoubtedly the pure gold medal plaque leaning next to it, which is extremely eye-catching. In it, Don found the secret book of the Sea Tide Mind Method. And that inconspicuous little flower pot covered in mud.

Donn then turned his attention to the chessboard, which was black and white with a total of 64 spaces. On both sides, there are two small sculptures of purple and red. These small sculptures represent soldiers with guns, cavalry, chariots, crowns resembling kings, and so on, a total of six shapes. Then add some duplicates, and each team has a total of 16 pieces.

"What's going on with this thing?"

"Ugh. You won't?" Jack looked at Donn with disdain, and then said, "See the soldiers." Yes, that can only go forward...... As for the cavalry, it went straight first. Diagonally again. Or go diagonally and then straight...... Here. The old man with the crown in the middle saw it, as long as you kill him, you will win. ”

"Well, I understand. Don nodded.

As he spoke, the purple-robed man arched his hand, and another person was defeated.

The man looked at the chessboard in a daze, and took a long breath. Stand up and bow down. Then he shook his head and walked to the side, his face full of incredulity.

One of the guards stepped forward and took back the man's bet, a bowl of pearls, and placed it among the miscellaneous loot.

At this time, the purple-robed man had already lined up the chess pieces on both sides, coughed twice, and then spread his palms evenly and made an inviting gesture.

You look at me, I look at you, but no one dares to step forward.

"Old man, let's try. ”

As the words fell, the crowd dispersed, and an old man with a childish face walked in with the support of a middle-aged man.

"Hey, isn't that the owner of the General Chess Gym who just lost. ”

"No, but who is this old man?"

“...... I remembered that this old man was the previous owner of the General Chess Gym, that is, the master of the current owner. Tsk, that's a great character. He once went to Brando to participate in the Imperial Chess Tournament and won third place!"

"Oh, it's him!"

"Well, now that there is finally a figure who can subdue this arrogant guy. ”

...... I have to say that this purple-robed man's signboard is too hateful.

When the old man's identity was recognized, it immediately caused an uproar. Immediately, everyone hurriedly moved forward, waiting to see the scene of the purple-robed man being cleaned up. They had been waiting for this moment for a long time, and they couldn't wait.

The old man, with the help of the middle-aged man, sat cross-legged. Looking at the chessboard, looking at the plaque of the General's Chess Hall, Zuihou looked at the purple-robed man.

Arch his hand: "The inferior is shallow, I don't know everyone, and I lost the plaque." Originally, on the chess game, he was not good at learning, and he deserved to lose. However, this plaque was given by a friend, and it was not easy to give it up, so the old man had to ask for it with a cheeky face. ”

Speaking of this, the old man paused, and then said, "But the chess game is like a battlefield, and it has its own rules. The old man understands this, so he just hopes that if I win by luck, I hope I can get this plaque back again, I don't know what everyone means?"

"It's okay, you can!" replied the purple-robed man.

"So, thank you. After speaking, the old man took out a pocket chessboard from his cuff and put it beside him, "The old man has no long things, so I don't know if I can take this as a bet today?"

The board is like white jade, and the chess is like a star. The edges are faintly moist and smooth, and it is obvious that it is often played with.

"Good stuff, yes!"

After speaking, the two stopped talking. The purple-robed man waved his hand to signal the other party to invite first, but the old man was not polite, and the little soldier holding the red chess took a step first.

......

Everyone involuntarily held their breath, reached their heads, and looked at the chessboard fixedly. It seems that it is a jade beauty, and it seems to be a delicious meal!

Don took his place first, but he didn't have to work so hard. At this time, he was also staring at the chessboard, motionless, as if he was a fugue......

The two of them moved the chess pieces very quickly at the beginning, and they seemed to have a plan in their chests. Just wait for the rain to brew and make a thunderous blow.

Gradually, the pieces of both sides began to be captured continuously.

Thirty minutes later, the game reached the middle game, and the old man began to fall into thought, the purple-robed man was still unhurried, coughing a few times from time to time, and still seemed to be at ease.

Everyone couldn't help but gasp when they saw this jiashi, could it be that this guy's chess strength is still above the old man? How is it possible, this is the third in the country......

Another thirty minutes passed, and both of them were caught in a long thought. From a layman's point of view, the two men have the same number of chess pieces, and they seem to be evenly matched.

Suddenly, the old man stretched out his trembling hand, grabbed the king with the crown, squeezed it tightly, and his tendons turned blue, and then let go.

"Smack", falling on the chessboard, the crown falls.

This, this, this...... Everyone opened their mouths wide and looked at the fallen king, and their minds were a little confused for a while.

"Old man admits defeat!"

"Take!"

Wow......

The scene of silence was suddenly in an uproar. The faces of the people were terrified, and they kept making noise.

There are still chess pieces on the chessboard, but at this time they abandon the pieces and admit defeat. That can only show the fact that the old man is no longer able to get down, and the situation is powerless.

Xu sat for a long time, and the old man struggled to stand up, looking a little difficult.

The middle-aged man standing on the side seemed to be completely stupid at this time, staring at this game of chess blankly, and did not immediately step forward to help. The purple-robed man sighed lightly, held the old man's thin arm, and helped him up.

"Xiexie!" the old man had completely regained his composure by this time, and he smiled. Then he turned around and walked to the middle-aged man's side: "Let's go, go back." ”

At this time, the guard behind the purple-robed man put away the pocket white jade chessboard and placed it among the many trophies.

The middle-aged man suddenly knelt down, his face full of tears: "Master, I'm sorry ......"

He regretted it, he didn't expect to lose the chess hall plaque because of his impulsiveness. Then there was a series of masters, losing the pocket chessboard that he had played for decades, and a lifetime of chess honors......

"You! you!" The old man suddenly seemed very excited at this time, his breath was short, he tilted his body, and kicked his feet on the middle-aged man's body, "You really disappointed me!"

The middle-aged man lay on the ground with a gloomy face.

"How many times have I said it......" The old man's face was red, and his eyes were as cold as a devouring tiger, "You can fall in chess, but you can't kneel!

After speaking, the old man didn't look at it again, and walked out tremblingly.

Everyone involuntarily got out of the way, regret, reverence, and understanding...... All eyes were on the old man.

The purple-robed man shook his head, turned around and picked up the pocket chessboard, walked to the middle-aged man with a blank face, and leaned over to hand him over.

The middle-aged man's expression was uncertain, and various emotions flashed one by one.

After a moment, quickly get up. returned the chessboard to the purple-robed man, and then bowed to the ground one by one. Then he ran outside: "Master, master!"

......

"Ahem!" The purple-robed man clenched his fist to his mouth, coughed twice, sat back in front of the chessboard, and set up the chess pieces on both sides.

Arms outstretched, flattened......

Everyone looked at each other, and then looked at the purple-robed man with complicated eyes. For a long time, no one responded.

The third in the country has abandoned their sons and admitted defeat, how dare they go up and bring humiliation on themselves. In this case, probably only the second and first chess players who are far away are qualified to fight.

Suddenly

"Uh, is there anybody? I'll try ...... then" (To be continued.) )
