Chapter 48 Chess
In the warm afternoon sun, the birds no longer sing lowly, and the courtyard of Nanquelu is quiet, which can't help but make people sleepy.
In the study, there is a faint ink fragrance and a long charm. Mo Chen was checking the documents at the desk, he was thinking heavily, but when he glanced at the side, he smiled.
Qin Luo lay on the round table and fell asleep peacefully. The table was covered with rice paper, and the warm wind blew a piece of rice paper aside. Mo Chen walked over and picked it up, checked one or two, and smiled. He sat next to Qin Luo, picked up the brush, and added a few more strokes to it.
Qin Luo sensed the movement, slowly straightened up, and saw that it was Mo Chen beside him, and said with concern, "Are you done with your business?"
"Yes. Mo Chen put the rice paper in front of the table and looked at her with his chin propped up.
Qin Luo subconsciously looked at the paper and read it carefully, "This formation...", her brows furrowed, "Don't you crack it according to the five elements?"
Mo Chen pointed to a place and said, "If you solve it like this, things will be reversed, and Mu Jin will not be in its place, so it will not be able to crack it, and it will only be in trouble." “
"I can see it, but I haven't thought of a better way. Qin Luo saw Mo Chen's mark, "Are you replacing the five elements with the earth branch to see?"
"This formation should be referred to in both ways, the east and the west, the yin soil and the yin gold. Shaoyang is seen in Yin, strong in Mao, and declining in Chen. Shaoyin is seen in Shen, strong in unitary, and weak in Xu. Two places and one piece can solve this array. “
Qin Luo seemed to understand a little, "Then it has to be solved according to different hours, when you are prosperous, when you are prosperous, when you are prosperous, when you are prosperous." Unraveled separately in two hours, Jin Kemu, and then water. Mu Ke soil, then make a fire. Return the gossip, exchange the earthquake when the unitary time, and destroy the kan. When the Kun Gong retreated in half, he was destroyed. But this is a bit time-consuming and laborious. “
Mo Chen came closer, and then said, "That's what I intended, but there is a shortcut." Try it with nine palaces, Qiangong, Kan Palace, Gen Palace, Zhen Palace, Middle Palace, Xun Palace, Ligong, Kun Palace, and Dui Palace. Two or four are shoulders, six or eight are feet, three on the left and seven on the right, one on nine shoes, and five in the center. Look back like this..."
The distance between the two is quite close, and Mo Chen's explanation is so profound, Qin Luo is also an eye-opener. If you look at him simplifying this array and reasoning skillfully, it can also be unraveled. Seeing that he was so serious, Qin Luo was fascinated by the formation, which was very different from when he was a child.
She stared at Mo Chen's face and said suspiciously, "In the ten years that I am no longer here, what have you experienced that have made you change so much?"
Mo Chen was stunned, and after a while, there was injury in his eyes, but the corners of his mouth rose, "It's just... Something was clear. “
"Huh?"
"What's the use of annoyance if the treasure is lost, you can only work hard and persevere, and you can live up to the search. Mo Chen looked sideways at her. The two of them looked at each other at the moment, and both sensed each other's breath. Mo Chen looked at her tenderly, "If it is found, it will also be strongly protected, and it will never repeat the mistakes of the past." “
His eyes seemed to be devouring Qin Luo, making her unable to avoid it, and at this moment she trembled in her heart, just like last time.
What does that feel like, and why is it so frequent these days?
"Luo'er. Mo Chen's eyes were not easy to dodge.
"Huh?"
"Don't you understand?"
"No more. Qin Luo avoided his gaze and returned his gaze to the formation.
"Then you... Wrong here too. He pointed to a piece of rice paper.
"Where?"
"And this, this, this too, and there's something wrong there. Mo Chen pointed out no less than seven mistakes, a serious way.
Qin Luo hadn't cleared his mind yet, and was about to carefully explore the mistakes.
"Need my help?"
"No, you don't. She shook her head and insisted, keeping her eyes off for a moment.
"I'd better help you, otherwise you won't be able to solve it in your life. Mo Chen dragged his cheeks again and quipped.
"No, I don't. Qin Luo listened to the tone, thinking that he was looking down on himself, and buried his head in the formation even more, frowning.
"No, just admit it. Mo Chen said, the corners of his mouth rising slightly.
"Go about your business. Qin Luo hinted at him with a urging look and quickly left in front of her.
"It's fun to be on official business. “
Tease me?
Qin Luo looked at Mo Chen blankly, and when he saw his playful expression, he didn't dare to look at him. I knew that there was nothing wrong with it at all, and I was playing tricks again.
This man hasn't changed at all!
In the backyard of Nanquelu, the sun is shining, and the rays of sunlight shine through the gaps between the lush leaves, reflecting a patch. Under the dense trees, flowers and plants are in full bloom, delicate and colorful, and the fragrance is overflowing.
Under the shade of the tree, there is a stone table with a Go board carved on it. Qin Luo sat there, looking at the chess game in the book, picking up the sunspots, but he was undecided.
Mo Chen sat next to her, the two of them were a little bit apart, he tilted his head to see the chess game, his eyes glanced at one place, carefully picked up the sunspot, and wanted to play on one point.
He originally thought that Qin Luo was looking away, not taking care of himself, and secretly rejoicing. When he stretched out his hand, he was instantly grabbed by the wrist.
Mo Chen was embarrassed and looked to the side. This person was Qin Luo, she squinted her eyes and said solemnly, "Didn't you say that I would break the chess game alone, and you promised never to interfere." “
"It's not like you're in this game, entangled for a long time, and I want to untie you. Mo Chen showed a gentle smile, so that Qin Luo didn't dare to discipline him.
She made up her mind, didn't argue with him much, and wanted to take Mo Chen's hand away. A little harder, but his hand didn't move, and he didn't mean to retract it at all. Qin Luo gritted his teeth, wanting to exert some strength, but he twisted his wrist to break free, and continued to want to put the sunspot on the spot.
Qin Luo blocked with the back of his hand, and the other party skillfully dodged here. She grabbed her wrist again, and the two of them kept fighting above the chessboard, Qin Luo wanted to take the opportunity to take away the sunspot in his hand, Mo Chen saw his thoughts, the sunspot was between the middle finger of the index finger, and he jumped his fingers, easily converting the sunspot to the middle finger and ring finger.
Mo Chen's fingers were dexterous, and the sunspot was constantly jumping between his fingers, making Qin Luo unable to figure it out. She put down the book with her left hand and stretched out to Mo Chen, one hand could not do it, but she could only stop it with both hands. Mo Chen also stretched out his left hand to resist the blow. The range of action of the two increased, and neither side refused to budge, and they were entangled again.
"It's all said to wake up, Luo'er, you don't have to do this. Mo Chen's words were full of grievances, but the smile did not go away, as if he was enjoying it.
Qin Luo struggled to control his emotions and took a deep breath, "I said no, it was you who were so persistent, I was like this, and you blame me now." “
The two fought with their hands for a while, and Mo Chen took the opportunity to get closer, locked Qin Luo's right arm with one hand, and said with a secret smile, "Who told you not to play against me." “
Qin Luo had a headache, "Your chess skills were taught by Uncle Mo, who can beat the two of you in this Nancang, won't I definitely lose when I play against you?"
"Then I'll let you have two sons. “
"No, anyway, the assessment is not a game, but a chess game, I can understand it by reading the book. “
The two were entangled again, Qin Luo was more and more annoyed, the force was equal, and the stalemate was unbearable. But Mochen is a man after all, and his hand strength is greater, so it is not good for him to come back a few more rounds.
Qin Luo pursed his lips, this is what you asked for. She pretended to fight with Mo Chen, broke free with her right hand and landed beside her, accumulated internal strength, and knocked the stone bench where Mo Chen was sitting with one palm. Mo Chen didn't react, when his buttocks hit the ground, he clenched his hands tightly, Qin Luo was also implicated by him, and the moment she got up, Mo Chen also kicked away her stool.
Both of them seemed to fall to the ground, but Qin Luo was half a minute late after all, his gesture quickly changed, he grabbed Mo Chen's wrists with both hands, and raised his legs to praise.
"Touch!" Kuroko landed the stone table.
The two of them fell into the flowers and plants, and the petals were scattered beside them. Qin Luo knelt on the ground with one knee bent, bent his leg on Mo Chen's body, and then pressed his hands to his ears.
Qin Luo propped his upper body with both hands, and said with an evil smile, "In the past, you were the only one in Nancang Mountain who was strong in martial arts, but now it is different, you don't take me seriously when you provoke me like this." “
The two looked at each other, Mo Chen was suppressed by a girl for the first time, he was stunned for a long time, and then faced Qin Luo's face, the blood rushed to his brain, and the sound of his heartbeat was heard clearly. His cheeks were slightly red, and he didn't want to be discovered by Qin Luo, so he turned his face sideways.
At this time, Yuan Yu came over and said respectfully, "Mo Shao, today's documents have been delivered, the head said..." can find that not far away, Qin Luo is pressing on Mo Chen's body, and both of them are still facing him, this posture...
When Yuan Yu saw that glance, the roots of his ears were suddenly congested, and he immediately lowered his head, "I! I! I didn't see anything! I stepped back first! Mo Shao chatted with Senior Sister Qin slowly!"
After saying that, he fled quickly like a gust of wind.
Qin Luo let go of his hands, straightened his waist, looked puzzled, and looked at the place, "What's wrong with Yuanyu?" “
Mo Chen's hands were free, and he propped himself up, "Who knows." “
"Just go and get busy with business, don't mess with me anymore. “
Qin Luo said, and turned his head to look at him. Suddenly, I saw a pair of bright, deep eyes, like a pool of soft, clear lake. I clearly felt his snort on my face, and I was flustered in my heart, and my body didn't dare to move.
Mo Chen's heart just now had not eased, and it was even more intense. Who knew that as soon as Qin Luo turned his head, the two of them were so close to each other, if he moved forward a few more points, he would... It's to be light and thin to her.
Qin Luo was at a loss, the back of his head was numb, his whole body was hot, and the feeling he had before came again. Why did I see Mo Chen have such a heartbeat. She hesitated, but after all, she couldn't be so stiff, and said softly, "Mo... Mo Chen. “
Being called, Mo Chen instantly sobered up, his body moved back, and he inadvertently glanced at Qin Luo's lips, the soft upper and lower lips almost ran into him. He was flustered and could not be calmed down.
After Qin Luo got up, he stretched out a hand to Mo Chen, wanting him to borrow his own strength to get up. Mo Chen's face was red and his ears were hot, and he lowered his head and took her hand to stand up. Qin Luo patted away the petals on his body and combed his hair. With such a distraction, the strange feeling has decreased a lot, and the head has calmed down.
She looked up at Mo Chen, saw that his hair was dipped in petals, and reached out to help him take it away. The hand slowly rose and went over his cheek. In an instant, Mo Chen grabbed her wrist and dragged it towards herself, Qin Luo threw herself into his arms, and then Mo Chen hugged her hands tightly, and her face was close to her ears.
Qin Luo was a little panicked, "How... What's wrong?"
Mo Chen buried his head and didn't say a word, he strongly suppressed his heart and gasped. He still has a trace of reason now, if he doesn't even have that trace, he will definitely not let Qin Luo go. The beloved is right in front of you, how can you control it!
"You..."Qin Luo was puzzled and wanted to push him away.
But he didn't let go at all, and kept exhaling at the root of Qin Luo's ear, and said in a low voice, "Don't move." “
Qin Luo's rapid heartbeat came again, and his whole body was numb, "Mo... Mo Chen. “
"Let me hold for a moment... Just for a moment..."Mo Chen's pleading tone, Qin Luo heard it even more hot all over.
She was puzzled by this strange feeling, did I change my heart palpitations...
Qin Luo breathed slowly, regulating his heartbeat, and forced himself to calm down. Only then did she perceive how strong Mo Chen was, and she was too lazy to waste her strength to break free. She is like a relative to Mo Chen, and she is hugged by her relatives, so it should be nothing.
Mo Chen's heart still couldn't calm down, and he had hugged for a while, he had to say something, what could he say...
He was so nervous that he even stammered when he spoke, "Wait... Under... Accompany... Come with me to the study..."
"Study?" Qin Luo recalled Yuanyu's words just now, "I..."
Mo Chen didn't wait for her to speak, and his hands increased his strength again, "There is also a chessboard in the study..."
Qin Luo blinked, should he nod or shake his head... As long as Mo Chen doesn't bother himself, it doesn't matter where he is...
Mo Chen made up his mind, as if he had stabilized, let go of his hands, and looked at her, "If you don't speak, I should agree." “
His hand fell, and he immediately took Qin Luo's hand, "Let's go." "Take a step and pull her along.
Qin Luo followed a few steps, suddenly thought of something, turned his head and said, "Book." “
Qin Luo pulled his hand away and wanted to go back to get the book, but Mo Chen immediately rubbed her waist, holding back his joy, "There is also it in the study, I will give it to you when I go back." “
Seeing that he was in such a good mood, Qin Luo asked, "What happened to you just now, why did you hug me?"
"Not much..."
As soon as Qin Luo asked about what happened just now, Mo Chen lowered his head, not daring to face himself. If there is something hidden, then it will not be difficult for others.
The sunlight was obliquely shining, a layer of fog, and the backs of the two were gradually drifting apart.
In the afternoon of Nanquelu, the slight westward slanting sunlight came and quietly illuminated a pavilion.
Qin Luoyu's hand was light, and he saw that the Qianqianyu fingers were fluctuating on the strings, very smooth, and the clear and clear sound of the piano flowed, which was so harmonious with this scene.
When playing the last paragraph, Qin Luo's fingertips trembled, and he suddenly frowned, stroked the piano with both hands, and stopped the string sound. Mo Chen leaned out and said softly, "You made a mistake again." “
"I know. Qin Luo pursed her lips, there was always something wrong in this place, which annoyed her, and the more upset she was, the easier it was to make a mistake.
Mo Chen sat next to her, bent his knees, dragged his cheeks, and looked at her with a leisurely smile.
Qin Luo glanced at him, she had seen this expression countless times recently, thinking that Mo Chen must be laughing at herself in her heart. But this time she wasn't so annoyed, because... She's really not good at playing the piano...
"Well, I'll admit it, those who rely on their kung fu are not good at anything other than the sword. Qin Luo avoided his gaze and looked away, with a hint of arrogance.
Seeing that she was so honest, Mo Chen took her hand and put it on the piano, "Come, I'll teach you." “
He moved a little closer, grabbed her hand, and placed it with one finger at a time, "Here it should be, then hook, then wipe, hook, in." “
Mo Chen pressed Qin Luo's right hand and let her sense the change in that fingering. He demonstrated, "Come on, try." “
Qin Luo recalled his guidance, playing it unfamiliarly, Mo Chen listened carefully, nodded and said, "Well, that's it, try to press the string with your left hand and do it again." “
Qin Luo raised his left hand, held the piano with both hands, and continued the section just now, playing. The sound of the piano continued to swirl in the pavilion, and her thoughts gradually merged with the beautiful sound of the piano, soft and tranquil, soft and comfortable.
