I heard another person say: "Second brother, in the thirteenth chapter of the Chess Sutra, it is said that the winner of the battle is not combined, and it must be counted as a lot." Pen, Fun, Pavilion www.biquge.info is not a winner, but it is a few. Those who have fought and do not know the winner are not counted. You think of playing chess as a pastime, but I treat it as a game, and I have already planned it before the game. In fact, you don't have to go down to know that you are going to lose. ”

The person who spoke was the fourth master, and at this time, Wang Gui saw him walking towards the door through the window paper. The fourth master walked to the door, but did not push the door, only asked, "Is there something wrong?"

The person who opened the door said respectfully: "Something is wrong." ”

If an ordinary person hears that something big is happening, he must immediately push open the door. But the fourth master was extremely calm, took the latch of the door, and said, "Come in and say." Then he turned back, sat down in a chair, picked up the pieces from the chessboard one by one, and put them in the basket.

Wang Gui walked in alone, and saw the fourth master's expressionless face for thousands of years, cold sweat flowed on his forehead, in fact, the fourth master in his mouth was only in his thirties, and he looked very young. Wang Gui walked to the second master and didn't know how to speak, and stood in a daze for a while.

"What's wrong?" The second master moved his neck, and he was a little tired from playing chess with the fourth master all night.

"The old tiger is dead. Wang Gui lowered his head, he didn't know what the fourth master's reaction would be after he said this, but he could imagine the second master's reaction, he must have been very surprised.

But this time he was disappointed, and the second master only said lightly after hearing it, "Got it." ”

"You already knew that the tiger was dead?" asked Wang Gui

"How can such a big thing be hidden?" After the second master finished speaking, he ignored Wang Gui, staring at the chessboard and rolling his eyes, "Fourth, I don't seem to have lost!" He found that there was a move that could resolve his dilemma.

"Second brother, the chess pieces are almost finished, and you just saw it. Even if I have the heart to let you, I can't put the pieces back. The fourth master looked at the remaining chess pieces on the chessboard and said.

"Also, why don't we play another game?" The second master is gearing up, there are very few people who can accompany him to play chess on weekdays, but this time the fourth child is back, and he can be regarded as catching the sparring partner.

"If you go down again, you will lose. The fourth master smiled rarely

"If you lose, you will lose, we will not gamble money, and we will not lose face if we lose to you, the chess master. The second master sat up straight and prepared to play another game with the fourth master.

"Second master, what about the tiger, do you see?" Wang Gui asked cautiously.

Wang Gui knew that the second master didn't interfere in the underworld on weekdays, but now he had nowhere to go. Although the tiger was very famous in the underworld when he was alive, the more famous he was, the more enemies he had. Those who had been brothers to the tiger may now be celebrating his death at home. If you go to find someone on the underworld, not to mention that no one will help, it is very likely that something black will happen. So it's safer to come to the second master, but I happened to meet the fourth master, the iron-masked king of Hades.

The second master said: "I know this matter in my heart, you go back first." ”

"But where is the big boss?" Wang Gui thought to himself, it seems that the second master doesn't want to help.

At this time, the fourth master was a little angry, "What are you talking about, let you go back first and leave quickly!" He turned his head and glanced at Wang Gui, so frightened that Wang Gui ran away.

The person who opened the door saw Wang Gui come out and asked, "How is it?"

Wang Gui shook his head, "There is the fourth master here, and the second master doesn't dare to help." ”

"Yes, the fourth master wants to be upright, how can he care about the tiger's business. Whenever the person who opened the door talked about the fourth master, he showed a respectful look on his face, and he persuaded: "You go back quickly, just don't know the tiger." ”

Wang Gui thought that this was the only way, nodded and walked along the way he came.

In the house, the charcoal burns quietly in the stove, and it seems to flicker and dim as if it breathes in the light. Since no one had turned it over all night, it was now covered with ash from burning for too long. From time to time, sparks burst out, and some fell in a flash, and some fell on the ground outside the furnace, like a man abandoned by the world, and from then on he died by himself.

The two of them had already sorted out the chess pieces, and the second master took the lead in black, and this time he put the first chess piece on Tianyuan without any scruples. When it was the turn of the fourth master to fall, he used his index finger and termination to pick up the white son in the chess basket, and the two fingers were loosened, and the white child fell into the chess basket, "no more", his brows were tightly locked, and he obviously had something on his mind.

"What's wrong?" In the memory of the second master, there is nothing that can make the fourth child worry.

"I stayed in Yuanping well, why did you transfer me back to Beijing?" the fourth master said the question in his heart.

"Now that the political situation is turbulent, in this time of change, the big boss needs you. The second master put the only black piece on the chessboard back into the chess basket.

"The big boss knows that I will never be in the same league as him, and he will need me?"

"Fourth, why do you still speak like this, you don't know the severity, how can you call it collusion, it's obviously a game in the political arena. The second master hurriedly corrected

The fourth master didn't argue with him, on the surface, he was transferred back to the capital division and promoted, but outsiders didn't know that this was secretly operated by the person who controlled all the black and white forces in the capital. What the purpose is is not yet known.

There was a strong wind outside the house, and the temperature in the house dropped, and the fourth master remembered that he had finished the whole without charcoal. So he got up and walked to the stove, and put his hand in his sleeve and picked up the charcoal and put it into the stove.

"Second brother, I haven't been in the capital for all these years, how did you get involved with the underworld?"

"Hey, you also know the third child's illness, it is a bottomless pit, and how much money you have to smash into it. The second master suddenly became lonely and helpless, "Our Long family has always been honest and honest as officials, and the eldest brother can't quench his thirst in Nanjing, and I can't help it!"

The fourth master, who has always been calm, couldn't help but look sad when he heard this, "Isn't the big boss not helping at all?"

"How can a big boss take care of such a trivial matter?"

"He deliberately forced you to fall into the water!" The fourth master raised his voice, and his heart was extremely angry.

"You be quiet, the third child finally fell asleep. The second master reminded him, then stood up and walked to the fourth master's side, "Fourth, you've been back for a few days, and it's time to go see the big boss." ”

The fourth master thought that he didn't know what he would be forced to do when he saw the big boss, and he was entangled in his heart, but there was no way not to see that person. If you don't go to see him, what will happen to you? Thinking of the consequences, the fourth master hurriedly said: "Second brother, I'll go wash my face, and then let's go see the big boss." ”

The second master nodded, "Hurry up, it's late, the big boss may have to sleep." ”

The fourth master washed his face with cold water and followed the second master out of the back door. The two of them did not ride horses, because riding horses on such a quiet street was too conspicuous, and if their traces were discovered, their identities would be exposed, and the big boss behind them would probably be in chaos.

The night sky is overcast, the moon is gone, and the moon is even more remnant. Two people walk against the wall so that no shadow is left on the street and no one finds them.
