Chapter 6: A Book of Heavens

"So now, are you willing to bet with me?"

Li Xiu made another play on the chessboard, like a cold wind passing through, and said softly.

"Why don't you gamble? People always have to take advantage of the young casino in this life, Zifei's favor, I Chen Zhimo returned it. ”

He looked up to the sky and smiled, the blue shirt on his body was flying, and he no longer saw elegance, but looked like a madman, his long ink-like hair swaying along the night breeze.

This time, no one spoke, and all the academy disciples sat cross-legged on the ground, looking up at the light curtain in the sky, looking at the chess pieces on the chessboard that were gradually becoming denser.

The six people who followed Mr. Chen to the city gate earlier today were already standing under a plum tree at some point, looking at the chess game with different expressions.

There were three people who didn't care about the day's events, and even watched the game with excitement.

You Yiren had a cold face, she was used to holding the moon from a small number of stars, and the reason why she provoked Li Xiu in front of the city gate was because she was not used to it.

I'm not used to that kind of occasion, it's not centered on her, I'm not used to it, it's clear that my juniors can't interject, but Li Xiu can control the general trend.

Mr. Chen, who is not used to treating himself well, looks at that kid.

And what she couldn't accept the most was that Li Xiu didn't even look at her.

The last thing people can accept is the neglect of others.

Li Xiu had not yet cultivated, and this seemed to be well known to everyone, and the young man's first step out of the carriage could be seen.

This is an ordinary person, and he is not lightly ill.

But it was at this moment that ordinary people stood in the place where the young generation of Datang gathered, and played a game of chess with the best of them.

And-for-tat, no one is willing to take half a step back.

People always say that the beginning is a hundred steps.

In these hundred steps, there is no doubt that Li Xiu walked more steadily, after all, he took the sunspot first.

But playing chess can't just look at the present, in the middle game, Chen Zhimo took care of every step of the way, and when he was killed, he stood up and shouted happily.

Li Xiu also frowned for the first time, breathing rapidly.

The beard teacher's eyes were shining, and at some point a pamphlet appeared in his hand, recording every step of the two, and his mouth was still muttering silently, his face full of intoxication.

The disciples of the academy held their breath and did not dare to come out.

If nothing else, tonight's game of chess will become the most widely circulated chess game in the entire Tang Dynasty.

This game of chess will even be recorded in the Book of Tang.

Chen Zhimo is superb in chess, and he defeated the National Teacher a year ago and became the best person in the entire Tang Dynasty to play chess.

This is a well-known fact that the bad words he said before were completely self-effaceted.

It is precisely because of this that they have despised Li Xiu for a long time.

But who would have thought that this prince of Chen Liuwang would really be able to play against Chen Zhimo.

Not to mention winning or losing, just going down to such a point, there is no one to compare with Datang.

The chessboard is so big, and the game will always come to an end.

The two of them sat up straight in turn, and a flush appeared on Li Xiu's pale face.

Although I can't practice, this game can be called a pleasure.

Chen Zhimo is the same, looking at Li Xiu with bright eyes, chess is at the end, who loses and who wins.

The beard teaches him to count the chess pieces one by one.

Fingers trembled slightly between excitement.

But there is no one who does not love chess.

He is even known to love chess as much as his life.

In my lifetime, I can see such a game, like drinking elixir fairy dew, which is comparable to breaking the realm.

After a long time, the bearded instructor stood up, straightened up, and said loudly in the expectant eyes of all the academy disciples: "The prince Li Xiu wins with half a black chess. ”

Hearing this, the academy disciples all took a few steps forward, their eyes widened as if they couldn't believe it, and a brief silence was replaced by a frantic uproar.

Looking at Li Xiu again, his eyes were already unconsciously filled with respect.

Being able to beat Chen Zhimo in chess is a great thing in itself.

"I lost. ”

Chen Zhimo smiled very freely, not caring about winning or losing.

"If you take the sunspot first, I will be the one who loses. ”

Li Xiu said.

"But it's not about the process that matters, is it? ”

Chen Zhimo shook his head, stretched out his hand and wiped his shirt casually, completely lacking the politeness he was when they first met.

"I have placed the book of the heavens under the stones by the river, and I will go and fetch them. ”

When his words fell, one of the academy students couldn't help but shout at this end.

"Senior brother, are you talking about the place by the river where you often fish?"

Chen Zhimo glanced at the crowd and nodded.

"yes, how?"

The student's face turned red, and the rest of the people couldn't help but look inquiring when they saw his strange appearance.

Being stared at by many people, the man lowered his head a little embarrassed, and then said: "Last time I accompanied Senior Brother Chen to fish, he said that his fishing rod was uncomfortable, it must be that the stone below was too short, I saw him take something from his arms and put it on the stone, and today I realized that it was the Book of Heavens." ”

When this person's words fell, the academy disciples all looked at Chen Zhimo in surprise, dumbfounded.

The academy professor was even more gloomy, and his face and eyelids jumped.

He used the Book of Heavens to make stones? Just because it was uncomfortable to catch fish?

"Is His Royal Highness going to read the Book of Heavens today?"

A teacher asked Li Xiu.

"I'll come back in ten days, and it's not too late to see again. ”

Li Xiu bowed to the teaching and replied.

The teacher nodded: "In this case, the academy still has some private matters to deal with today, so I will not leave His Highness, and when the prince comes in ten days, the academy will definitely present the Book of Heavens." ”

Li Xiu nodded, turned around and disappeared into the night, Lao Qiao still followed quietly behind him like a shadow, and did not say a word from beginning to end.

He never worries about whether the college will go back on it.

The academy is the cleanest place in the world.

If you lose, you lose, and since no one in the academy spoke up against it when Chen Zhimo made a bet, it proved that they were ready for it.

Li Xiu left, and You Yiren turned around and left under the plum tree with a cold face.

Many of the academy disciples hurriedly bowed and apologized to the instructors one by one, trotting to do what they had to do.

Who teaches sleeping, practicing practice, and attending classes.

Chen Zhimo looked at the disciple who had exposed his old background before.

"Little thing, you dare to betray me. ”

The student shrank his head, turned around and ran away, out of sight.

Chen Zhimo wanted to chase after him, but was blocked by several teachers.

"Take out the book of the heavens, and then go to the court of rewards and punishments, and kneel until the prince of the world comes down to get the book. ”

Chen Zhimo also shrunk his neck, not daring to resist, and moved towards the river step by step like a frosted eggplant.

Walk slower and spend less time kneeling naturally.

If you walk for seven or eight days, won't you have to kneel?

Chen Zhimo's eyes rolled, thinking so.

"Go fast for Lao Tzu. ”

With a loud shout, Chen Zhimo's body trembled, and he ran up in three steps and two steps.
