Chapter 20 The 20th Game The Mystery of Lanyin Temple

"Master Kidney Bean, of course I know the rules. The temple does not support idlers," Tian Minze replied casually.

"I have four tasks here: kitchen help, sweeping the floor, organizing scriptures, and laundry. Which one do you want to do?"

"Oh," Tian Minze said curiously, "Then let me do the laundry first."

It turns out that I only know how to help in the kitchen, sweep the floor, organize scriptures, and do laundry. I don't know what it is. Naturally, Tian Minze can't hold back the novelty in his heart.

Soon, under the guidance of Kidou, we arrived at an independent meditation room with a desk, a chair, and a bed. The space was spacious enough, and it seemed that I had some preferential treatment by myself.

"You need to rest today, and I will inform all the masters that we will start helping out early tomorrow morning," Kidou ordered.

Tian Minze went to bed early that night and tried to get to the laundry room early the next day, hoping to leave a good impression on the master.

But when Tian Minze arrived, he didn't expect that a middle-aged monk was waiting there early.

"Clothes must be sorted. Each master's clothes are different. There are also Zen clothes prepared for pilgrims. If clothes are of different colors, they cannot be washed together." The monk arranged the work without mentioning Go at all.

Fortunately, there was a washing machine in the temple. Tian Min followed the monk's instructions, sorted the items into the right categories, put them in the washing machine one by one, and started washing the first batch.

Seeing the washing machine spinning, the monk pointed to the stone table at the door and said, "There is a question on the table. Go and solve it."

Tian Min took a closer look and saw that it was a complicated question of life and death.

It turns out that the subject of laundry is a detailed explanation of life and death problems.

Taking out his mobile phone, Tian Min took a photo and recorded it.

After sitting at the chess table to calm down, Tian Minze thought about it seriously. Although this question had a large number of pieces, it was not difficult. The first batch of clothes had not been washed yet, so Tian Minze gave the answer.

"Master, what should I call you?" Tian Min took the time to ask.

"Anonymous, there is no need to ask anymore."

The first question was just for the monk to explore Tian Minze's strength. Soon the second question came. This time Tian Minze washed the clothes and the washing machine worked for two hours before he solved the question.

The monk nodded, and the third question came again. Just like that, in one day, Tian Minze washed clothes 4 times and did 5 questions. Each question was more difficult than the last, and many questions were unheard of.

Tian Min was pampered since childhood and had never washed his own clothes. He hadn't suffered like this for a long time, so he quickly stretched his muscles and got a good sleep.

For a few days, Tian Minze was solving problems with the middle-aged monk in his dreams, shouting loudly, "You should go here, this step will solve the problem."

"Little donor, you have just solved 100 questions in 15 days, and the speed of solving them is getting faster and faster. I have nothing more to teach you. You don't need to come to my place tomorrow. You can try sweeping the floor."

Year monk suggested to.

Tian Min nodded. His orphan control rose from 50 to 60. It also increased by two points in the mid-game to 65. Even the level of orphan control showed signs of loosening. He must have solved the problem as long as he used the course.

The problem is, chess power will continue to rise.

Tian Minze got up early again, and this time finally reached the stone steps of the temple before the old master arrived.

"Donor, this is your broom. I don't have a chessboard here, so we can only play blind chess." The sweeping monk, a kind-hearted master, explained carefully.

Tian Min hurriedly returned the gift, "Master, my level of blind chess is not high, please bear with me."

"First hand, point three three"

…

"You are playing chess, but you can't stop doing the work at hand," the old master reminded.

Tian Minze couldn't remember clearly, so he quickly said "the fortieth move, the twelfth of five".

The old master smiled and replied, "Little benefactor, twelve out of five, I have already played the fifteenth move. It is a good position and there is no room for two moves."

Tian Min quickly apologized, "I'm sorry, this move was just a free move, and I was in a daze for a while."

The game was chaotic after forty moves, and Tian Min was a little nervous in the first set.

After adjusting my mentality, the second set started, and the result was less than 60 moves, and it was also chaotic.

Tian Min couldn't help but feel a little discouraged, "I didn't expect that as a young man, my memory is not as good as yours."

The old master smiled and said, "My mind is calmer. If my mind is calm, I will naturally remember more."

Tian Minze has never been so filled with Go in his entire life, as if Go is the only thing in his life.

This is the path that professional chess players strive to pursue. Every professional chess player has come this way.

"Master, if I remember correctly, I have played the move 12 out of 5," Tian Minze reminded.

"Little benefactor, it has been thirty days, and you have been able to play more than 180 blind chess moves. Old monk, I can no longer remember it," the sweeping master shook his head and said.

"It's time for you to find a new challenge. Helping in the kitchen doesn't mean much to you. I think organizing scriptures might be more suitable for you."

In one and a half months, Tian Minze has become very familiar with Lanyin Temple. This is his first time to visit the Tibetan Scripture Pavilion in the backyard.

Pushing open the door of the Sutra Pavilion, there was another smell of sandalwood inside, mixed with a smell of decay.

The scriptures fell to the ground one after another. Tian Minze looked around and saw no monk there. He was not in a hurry and picked up the scriptures on the ground one by one.

Yesterday, Tian Minze learned about the general classification of the twelve Buddhist classics, Tripitaka, in advance. Each of the scriptures was put back on the bookshelf in Tian Minze's hands, and they soon became neat and orderly.

There were many works on Go mixed in the scriptures, so Tian Min found them and placed them on a bookshelf inside, and also made notes.

No one has been seen in the Sutra Pavilion in the past few days, and the legendary lazy monk has not appeared either.

Tian Minze is immersed in Go books, most of which are records of ancient Chinese chess. There are many unheard analyzes and tetsuji in them, and there are many famous games that have been lost. At least Tian Minze has not seen them on the Internet.

.

While watching and taking photos, Tian Minze had a lot more photos on his phone.

"Stealing books is not stealing," Tian Min comforted himself in his heart.

A week has passed, and Tian Min has read less than a quarter of the dozens of Go books.

That day, a voice suddenly came from behind Tian Minze, "Kids, the books are all dead, why don't you come over and put them on a plate?"

There was a sudden sound in the quiet room, which startled Tian Minze.

There was obviously no one there in the morning, and I didn't hear the door open just now. Why did someone suddenly come in when the room was close? It was as if he had always been in the Sutra Pavilion and never left.

"Hello, Master", as expected, it was Master Lazy, and Tian Min greeted him respectfully.

A 21-way chessboard is placed on the table, and the lazy master plays black first.

There are many changes in Route 21, and the AI ​​guidance chess is no longer useful. Many fixed moves are no longer fixed. Often after 150 moves, the battle starts in the middle game, and Tian Minze is killed and loses his armor.

"Tomorrow you read the "Nanliang Chess Players' Encyclopedia of Tetsuji" and think about your method of exerting force. We will fight again the day after tomorrow," Master Lazy arranged casually.
