Chapter 258: The End

Under the moonlight.

The wind swept the snowflakes and swept the cols and wooden houses violently, shaking the branches of the sycamores.

The wind roared, and the cold ice and snow danced with it.

The thatch on the roof, a lot of spilled out, scattered all around, and spread everywhere.

The bare branches shook demonically, and it roared and roared, as if expressing its inner unwillingness and grievances to the world.

The night sky was as black as ink, and the whole sky was filled with a bleak atmosphere.

In this valley, the mountains are shivering with cold, the rivers are frozen as hard as stones, and the air seems to be about to freeze, even if it is not an exaggeration to say that it has been frozen for thousands of miles.

Lin Xuan's face was resolute, his eyes were full of madness, he thought for a long time, and finally let go of the sunspot that stopped in his hand.

"Smack!"

Zhuge Kongliang subconsciously went to look for the chess pieces, but found that the round box was completely covered by the heavy snow, and there was no trace of it, and now he couldn't find a single chess piece on his body.

"Huh!"

He chuckled, with an inexplicable meaning hidden in his laughter, and then looked down at the table.

At this moment, a thick layer of snowflakes accumulated on the wooden table, which looked like jade in the light of the moon.

The chessboard was completely submerged in snow, and the snow on the table was about five or six feet thick.

The black chess pieces stayed alone on the white snow, and in a few breaths, a layer of white light veil accumulated.

The chessboard is nowhere to be seen, the chess pieces are nowhere to be seen, and it seems that there is no need to play this chess game anymore.

But now, when the two of them meet together, there is nothing to stop them from playing chess except life and death.

Neither Lin Xuan nor Zhuge Kongliang had any intention of withdrawing and leaving.

The sound of whimpering wind and snow was extremely poignant and lingered for a long time.

"Kill yourself?"

Zhuge Kong sighed lightly, then raised his head and looked at Lin Xuan with an incredible expression.

"You're going to take a gamble?"

"It's funny!!" he replied casually, with a thick look of jealousy in his eyes.

The chess moves that Lin Xuan had calculated before were all the most correct moves, and they were perfect moves, avoiding all his traps and drilling straight into Zhuge Kongliang's flaws.

But now he did the opposite, deliberately going into the trap, even if he knew that he couldn't get down, he still fell into the trap.

In this way, the direction of the chessboard will change dramatically, and there will be a thousand changes.

Because no one knew if Lin Xuan would kill himself and still fall into the trap, maybe even he didn't know.

This risky move is a complete competition of two people's calculating power.

Gains and losses, wins and losses, all in the two of them.

"Good chess!"

Zhuge Kongliang raised his head and stared at the sky and the moon, he rubbed his eyebrows, his face full of appreciation.

What is needed to take this path of chess is great perseverance, great determination, great courage, and enough arrogant self-confidence.

He gradually fell into deep thought, and his mind raced rapidly.

The time for a cup of tea has passed.

Zhuge Kongliang raised his index and middle fingers and lightly tapped the snowflakes accumulated on the table.

Lin Xuan didn't hesitate at all, he followed Zhuge Kongliang's appearance, and also lit a little snow layer.

There is no chessboard in front of them, and there are no chess pieces in their hands, but for the two of them, it seems that they can't see it, and they still take care of their own pieces.

This contest is not only a test of chess strength, but also memory and mood.

As long as one of them remembers the wrong move, only one of them slacks off, and the opponent will seize the fleeting opportunity to end the game completely.

"Falling into a trap on purpose?"

Zhuge Kongliang's eyes condensed slightly, and his demeanor, which had always been breezy and calm, became serious.

He sat in the snowy moonlight, his face cloudy.

After a long time, Zhuge Kongliang suddenly smiled brightly, and a look of enlightenment appeared in his eyes.

The invisible and trajectory game unfolded again, and both of them were very fast, neither of them was slow to act, and they seemed confident.

If there was a chessboard on the table, if they had chess pieces in their hands, if there were spectators next to them, they would definitely be able to see that Lin Xuan made seven moves in a row, and every move was towards Zhuge Kongliang's trap.

And Zhuge Kong Liang's seven-step chess piece was similar to Lin Xuan, and he also fell into the opponent's trap.

What's really strange is that he could have eaten Lin Xuan's fifty sunspots, but Zhuge Kong Liang didn't do so, but took the initiative to give up his advantage.

Despite this, the sunspot is still declining, and if there are three more sons, this game of chess is Zhuge Kong Liang's big victory.

Even so, Lin Xuan didn't care at all, he still took care of himself, and he had a posture of not hitting the south wall and not looking back.

Of course, he did not give up, nor did he despair, nor did he give up on himself.

Because Lin Xuan had already calculated that after the third piece, black would lose eighteen white pieces.

But with four more moves, black will fight back and live to die, and then it will not be black that will lose, but white.

After seven discs, white will lose thirteen black discs.

Before he made a move, he deliberately played into the opponent's trap and let a large number of sunspots be sent to death, just for this moment.

Although Zhuge Kong Liang calculated that Lin Xuan made a move and also fell into his trap, it seemed that it was too late, and this situation would inevitably appear.

"If you were willing to spend a little more time when you were playing chess before, where would this kind of problem occur?"

Lin Xuan's face was proud, he looked at Zhuge Kong Liang with a sad face, and the smug look in his eyes deepened.

When they were playing, his admiration for Zhuge Kongliang spontaneously arose, he revered him and was calm in his heart, if he could beat him in the chess game, it would be enough to make Lin Xuan happy for many years.

Looking for a soulmate in the mountains and rivers, he gave birth to a feeling that it was not only friends who were close to each other, but also rivals.

A noble enemy, a noble adversary, can also be a rare bosom friend.

"You think you won?"

Zhuge Kongliang looked at Lin Xuan's expression, and replied lightly, with emotion and mockery in his voice.

"Do you think someone in this world has won me?"

Although he is only asking, his words are indescribably domineering.

It's like an emperor sitting on thousands of miles of rivers and mountains, asking his courtiers if they are more qualified to be the emperor and the king of the world than him.

"Humph!"

"Why can't anyone beat you?"

Lin Xuan snorted lightly, he stretched out his hand and pointed obliquely at the snow on the table, and said in a deep voice, "I want to win you!"

"Oh?"

"Really?"

Zhuge Kongliang seemed to be smiling, and then his face changed, and he asked with a split face: "What do you use to win me?"

"You!!"

Lin Xuan couldn't help but feel a little angry in his heart, he narrowed his eyes slightly, and then took a deep breath to release the depression in his heart.

He followed Zhuge Kongliang's gaze and looked at the chessboard, and suddenly his expression changed greatly, and his face was full of disbelief.

Lin Xuan calculated Zhuge Kongliang's chess move, and knew that he would make a risky move, but he missed a little.

Tian Yuan!!

As long as Tian Yuan is the base point and abandons the eighty white chess, Zhuge Kong Liang can make the stagnant water become living water within ten moves.

When the time comes......

"You didn't count my moves, and I didn't count your moves......"

Zhuge Kongliang stood up, waved his sleeves, and dusted off the snow.

The white snow fell gently, and he looked up at the starry sky, only to see the world and the world, and suddenly a kind of loneliness that could not be described was born in his heart.

"Thank you!"

He didn't say these two words, but they flowed out of his eyes, and he knew that Lin Xuan must understand it.

"Alas!"

Lin Xuan let out a long sigh, his face was full of bitterness, of course he understood what the other party meant, but he would rather not understand.

The moon is gone, the starlight is gone, and it disappears into the dawn that is about to appear.

The morning light was coming, and there was a faint glow in the sky, but Lin Xuan felt as if the world had become colder and darker.

"This time it's a draw......"

Zhuge Kongliang turned back slightly, he pointed to the chessboard with one hand, and said in a low voice: "With your level, you won't end up in such a situation, you are just careless, if you play another game......"

"A win is a victory, and a defeat is a defeat!"

Lin Xuan's voice was cold and full of unwillingness, he looked unhappy, and pushed open the wooden door and walked into the room.

"Bang!"

He slammed the bed and then brought the quilt over his body.

"Sleep!!"

Lin Xuan muttered angrily.

"Whew, whew!"

The sound of even breathing came slowly.

Outside.

The smile on Zhuge Kongliang's face gradually sank, and he walked to the wooden table and pressed it.

"Even if my move is unexpected, you can clearly find the flaw in my move, and this game of chess is indeed a draw in the end. ”

"But why did you want me to deliberately pretend to be like this?"

"Don't you want to hurt your peace?"

"Boom!!"

He lifted the wooden table and made a loud noise.

Snowflakes fell in a fluttering manner, wrapped in chess pieces, and fell everywhere.

Zhuge Kongliang turned around, his face was pale, and he muttered to himself: "I'd rather you and I finish this game than accept this result!"

He stood quietly in the snow, and in a short time he became a snowman.

Inside the house.

Lin Xuan, who was already asleep, suddenly opened his eyes, and a strange light flowed from his eyes.

He is an old actor, very good at acting, and very good at pretending.

Of course, he knew that if he finished playing chess, he would end up with a tie.

But Lin Xuan didn't do that, but deliberately put on that look.

Zhuge Kongliang was discouraged by him, and he must be very unhappy in his heart, and he will definitely talk to him in the future.

In this way, with just a few games of chess, their relationship will change from a stranger to half a friend, and a certain emotion will be established.

said half a friend because Lin Xuan knew that a person like Zhuge Kongliang would never make a friend casually.

The chess game between the two of them was not only a chess game on the surface, but also a game planned by Lin Xuan secretly.

When he saw Zhuge Kongliang's back move, the chess piece in the direction of Tianyuan, Lin Xuan came up with this idea on a whim.

He really didn't expect Zhuge Kong Liang to have a back move, just like Zhuge Kong Liang didn't expect him to do this.

Lin Xuan turned over, the passion in his heart was surging, and he didn't calm down for a long time.

With a character like Zhuge Kongliang, playing a draw is nothing, what is really powerful is to set up a second game to arrange the opponent while playing chess.

Perhaps in Zhuge Kongliang's eyes, Lin Xuan belonged to someone who regarded his calculations as more important than honor.

But it's a pity that Lin Xuan has never been this kind of person.

He gave up the low-hanging fruit and chose a more long-term plan.
