Fight in chess
Although Bai Lao has a little pity for Li Jinming's experience, he has no intention of helping, after all, Li Jinming single-handedly made this martial arts meeting what it is now, and a considerable number of people who can enter the official competition in the end are probably unworthy, and this martial arts meeting, which should be a legend, will also become a laughing stock in history, and he, the host, will also be laughed at by future generations.
He knew this, but he had to let Li Jinming mess around, only during the auditions, who made him need Tianxin Begonia.
Therefore, since Li Jinming refused to repent, he was not willing to waste his spit, so he threw his sleeves and left, with Bai Lao's wisdom and intelligence, he already knew the arrangement of Li Jinming's next round of competition battle list, after all, he was aiming at that group of people, the most core and dazzling genius in that group of Zhongzhen.
Genius perseverance is the genius who can really become a strong man, if this little setback falls, or collapses, such a genius is not good, it is impossible to grow.
This is Bai Lao's thoughts, and it is also the reason he found for the results of his selfishness, someone must have memorized it, it is better to say that it is to hone those young people, which is actually why Fu Changan doesn't like Bai Lao very much.
Fu Changan appreciates people who dare to act, brave and resourceful, if you want Tianxin Begonia, then find a way to fight for it, even if you can't do it, you can only choose to compromise and sacrifice the interests of others in exchange for what you want, then it has to be dignified, it is your own pot to carry it, it is really not reassuring and believing that he is not responsible. If it is replaced by Shangguan Yi, he will definitely find a way to deceive Tianxin Begonia from him, and then how to deal with it, it is really not good, and he will remind the victim in advance to minimize casualties, after all, this is the evil result of his own selfishness.
In the town guard's study.
The town guard was still correcting some documents, and his butler was standing in front of him to report the conversation between Li Jinming and Bai Lao just now, word by word, without omission.
"Heh, Bai Lao, that's it, let him go, the affairs of the rivers and lakes are in charge of the rivers and lakes, and it is a bad rule for us to meddle casually, and I don't need to do anything else, just like the old guy said, those who break the rules will eventually be abandoned by the rules, Li Jinming is like this, and Bai Lao is also like this, even if his intentions are good. The guard shook his head, a slight disdainful smile on his lips.
"Master, in terms of Bai Lao's status, he doesn't have to bow his head to Li Jinming, why does he want to let that guy ride on his head and do evil?" The housekeeper seems to be very incomprehensible, although the rivers and lakes and the imperial court are quite incompatible, but among the top figures in the capital, there is no such deep roots, his master can stand firm, it is the consensus of the Jianghu family, the Jianghu family can develop steadily and nourish the qi, it is also the credit of the master, even if Bai Lao is pressed by Li Jinming with the court, he is not afraid of the support of the lord at all.
"A spy said before: The people of the Demon Dao took out a Tianxin Begonia and gave it to Li Jinming as a bargaining chip, it seems that it should be true, Tianxin Begonia You should know, right?"
"Tianxin Begonia?, no, the preciousness of that thing is rare in the world, it is not an exaggeration to say that it is a rare treasure, the Demon Dao is willing to give it to Bai Lao? And its function is to nourish luck, if it is really used properly, the situation in Lidu will be much better, so ...... The thorn in the eye of the devil: Leaving the capital will become stronger, this is not right. The butler exclaimed, and then analyzed the matter with a frown, because it was really too wrong.
"That's right, you can find out what is wrong, but Bai Lao didn't see it, maybe he was in a hurry to go to the doctor, maybe he naively believed in the lies of people who have no discipline to speak of, Tianxin Begonia is a deadly poison, no matter whether the Demon Dao will come up with the real thing in the end, it is the case, this wave, this wave is killing two birds with one stone. The town guard nodded approvingly, his words seemingly carrying praise for the Demon Dao's plan.
"Master, you don't seem to be in a hurry at all, if they really succeed, although we will not be wiped out, but it is certain that there will be no harm in all kinds, and your long-term hard work will be in vain, and you must not let them go on like this. "The housekeeper was in a bit of a hurry.
"You, do you know why they can all be generals, or other independent figures, but you can only stay with me as a butler? The town guard shook his head slightly, as if he was a little dissatisfied.
"Please advise me. The butler knelt down and waited for the town guard to speak.
"Because you have more than enough to keep your home, and you are not enough to pioneer. It is difficult to rise in the midst of the decline, and it makes me motivated, but what I want is not just to the extent I am now, I want to restore the most dazzling glory in the history of Lidu, or even go further, and push it to a new peak. Rich and dangerous, since they have come up with such a plan, Lidu will also be forced to the point where there is no way out, it is better to fight back, and the plan will be calculated, if the current situation can be reversed, change the fortune for Lidu, plus a Tianxin Begonia, Lidu will completely get out of this predicament.
If, as you say, you intervene and snuff out this plan in the cradle, you will only die a slow death, and you will truly kill yourself. The warden put the fold aside in his hand, and then rubbed his eyes, as if he was a little tired.
"Thank you for the reminder. The butler suddenly realized, this is an extremely risky plan, the winner wins, the loser loses, there will always be one party in a situation from which he will never recover, but looking at the master's posture, I am afraid he has a great confidence that he can win, after all, this is the capital, it is their home field, no matter who it is, what you want to take away must be agreed by the master.
"You still don't understand. The town guard sighed, he didn't want to leave the housekeeper for him to be a housekeeper, but the housekeeper really didn't reassure him like this.
"It's okay, master, I'll stay in the town guard mansion as a housekeeper, there should always be a few henchmen in this mansion, I don't care about fame or anything. "The butler actually understands everything, but he just likes to stay in the town guard mansion and serve the town guard, this is the fate he set for himself.
"You, really...... Idiot. The town guard sighed in hatred, and once again gave up the plan to drive the housekeeper out to become an official.
......
On the second day, the third round of auditions began.
The people who participated in the competition on this day were Shangguan Yi, Mo Qianchen and Fu Changan, and everyone else was playing tomorrow or the day after tomorrow. It is worth mentioning that the ring on the side of the martial arts club has been merged, and the eight square rings have become four rectangular, the purpose is to allow the players to be able to open and not be restricted by too much or too little. This situation is likely to increase as the two sides of the match increase, so the necessary countermeasures are still in place.
However, in Shangguan Yi's opinion, this matter is simply to drag out time, and the rhetoric on the surface is just to deceive people, but he is too lazy to expose this matter, because there is no point, the hands and feet they have to do will not stop because of the public opinion offensive launched by themselves, the Demon Dao has never cared about this kind of thing, for them, the more chaotic the better, the more angry and panicked people are, the better.
The twelve opening games of this round of auditions are not Shangguan Yi or Fu Changan's, but the two of them, Fu Changan is in the second round, and Shangguan Yi is in the third round, but they just staggered to give them the opportunity to watch each other's games, although most of them are Fu Changan who looks at Shangguan Yi, after all, the game that ends in one round is still the kind that ends in crushing There is nothing to watch at all, and there is no chance to even watch it.
Soon it was Fu Changan's turn to play, her opponent was a guy who looked very weak, and it was estimated that it would be the end of another round.
This is the intuition of people including Shangguan Yi and them, and some people even opened a gambling game for this, betting on whether Fu Changan will win with one sword this time, and betting on how many times she can win with one sword...... All kinds, there are really gamblers who dare to play, and this game is no exception.
The referee quickly announced the start, except for one person shouting at about the same time as him, only a little slower. fifth
"Miss Fu, wait first!" Fu Changan's opponent shouted loudly.
Fu Changan's hand pulling out his sword paused slightly, and his beautiful and touching eyes looked at the person in front of him, as if asking him what was wrong.
"May I ask you a question?" successfully stopped Fu Changan's movements, the man breathed a sigh of relief slightly, and said this sentence that made Fu Changan's fans extremely angry, which was an offense.
"No, you can't. Fu Changan was as cold as ever.
It's just that this person obviously came prepared, and said the sentence "I admit defeat" before Fu Changan drew his sword, completely ending Fu Changan's one-sword winning record, but Fu Changan didn't care about this kind of thing.
"It seems that this guy's purpose is not to ask her questions, is it some kind of strange gamble?" Shangguan Yi was a little puzzled, this time he couldn't even see the sword drawn.
"Then it's your turn, come on. Chi Yan patted Shang Guan Yi on the shoulder as a sign of encouragement.
Shangguan Yi nodded, got out of the audience, and walked to the ring where he was going to compete, waiting for the end of the second round.
"Chang'an City Li Qingtian against the East China Sea Wang Gong, please come to the stage. The referee's voice finally sounded, followed by the cheers of Shangguan Yi's fans, Shangguan Yi has only experienced a big battle, and his state is definitely not good, and this battle can almost be said to be a continuous battle, after all, he is looking for his friend Bai Hao even on the day of the break, it is estimated that the injury is not good, and it has deteriorated, this game is probably not optimistic.
"Please check your status. The referee's second voice sounded.
"Wait!" Shangguan Yi shouted after nodding his head to indicate that there was no problem.
"What's the matter with Player Wang?" the referee asked as he looked at Wang.
"I'm going to negotiate with him to change the format of this competition, this has happened before, it should be fine, right?" Wang Cheng's words surprised everyone, including his companions.
"Player Li Qingtian, what do you think?" The referee asked Shangguan Yi's opinion according to the rules, this is a matter of two people, as long as one person disagrees, it cannot be changed.
"What are you going to do here?" Shangguan Yi frowned slightly, obviously this guy could already have an advantage by fighting directly, although he knew that he couldn't win.
"I've heard of your deeds, and I admire you, so I don't take advantage of people's danger, I heard that you are very good at playing splendid mountains and rivers chess, and I am known as a double masterpiece of wine and chess in our place, this time I will use a game of splendid mountains and rivers chess to determine the winner or loser, how?" Wang Qian said surprisingly again, he didn't want to take advantage of Shangguan Yi.
"I've also heard from friends about you, I heard that you are a master of martial arts, but I didn't expect it to be a double of wine and chess, but if you let go of water like this, do you look down on me a little too much?" Shangguan Yi's words were also a little inexplicable, and he seemed to be unappreciative.
"Release??non-existent, if it's compared to the splendid mountains and rivers chess, I won't let you take half a step, losing is losing, but I don't think you should be like this, if it's a normal competition now, if I lose, I will feel very unwilling, if I win, I'll be even more unwilling, how about it?" Wang Qian explained his motives very frankly.
"Okay, I agree. Shangguan Yi nodded.
"Very good, let's bring things up. Wang Qian clapped his hands, and the chessboard of the splendid mountains and rivers chess he had rented from here in advance was brought up, along with a pot of tea and a pot of wine.
"Who are you?" Shangguan Yi raised his eyebrows.
"I was supposed to drink and play chess with you, but you are injured and it is inconvenient to drink, so I will replace the bar with tea, and if there is no objection, we will start. Wang Qian made a gesture of please.
"Okay, you're a good person. Shangguan Yi laughed lightly, he probably understood this person's thoughts, he didn't come to compete today, but to persuade himself, although I don't know how he knew, but I think he felt something wrong by stargazing or something, right?
Subsequently, in front of everyone, the two sat down on the ground and played chess, not caring about the opinions of the onlookers, the speed of the two chess was fast and slow, and occasionally they would look at each other and smile, and raise their glasses to each other, as if they were acquainted with Jun Chu, as if they were returning to the old home.
The two of them are not very exciting in this game of chess, and there is no anxiety, and even in the eyes of the masters of splendid mountains and rivers chess, the level of the two people is rotten, and the game is messy, there is no discipline at all, and it is an insult to let them play chess. But a small number of people have seen the way, because they are not playing chess, but chess language, a psychological game, this is another game that cannot be understood, except for the two of them, it is difficult for others to interpret the true meaning of this game of chess.
"It's me who loses. Wang Qian turned his wine pot upside down, there was no longer a drop of wine in it, and Shangguan Yi's teapot still had some remnants of tea.
"Concession. Shangguan Yi arched his hand and won the game.
"Let's have a chance to play another game in the future. Wang Qian had a helpless smile on his face, in fact, he couldn't tell who was good at chess in this game.
"Good. Shangguan Yi also smiled in return, and then left the ring.
