Chapter Fourteen Between the Fingers

Chunse shook his head slightly. If you want to see it, you will eventually see it. "I'm going to offer incense, senior brother, will you go with me?" He pointed to the main hall in front of him. Because of the large number of pilgrims, many people who were rushing had to stay outside the door.

Worshiping. From what she meant, she must have gone into the temple. It would have cost a lot more.

"You go, I'll walk around!" Although Li Yu came in several times, he never offered incense once, which was not considered sincere at all.

Chun Se did not force him, and after agreeing on the location, he walked to the main hall alone. His unhurried steps were very special among the crowd, and it took Li Yu a long time to look away.

"Donor, Donor..." Chun Se had just left, and Li Yu heard someone calling softly from the side. The voice was a little strange, but the benefactors in the courtyard were calling someone. "Donor Chunyang." Li Yu just said this.

I found the owner of the voice behind a Bodhi tree. Looking at the little monk holding his nose and calling calmly, he walked away amusedly.

"Donor, the master asked me to call you." The little monk searched around Li Yu for a while. After seeing no trace of Pure Color, he boldly walked out from behind the tree and performed a Buddhist salute. "Please come this way.

Walk."

Li Yu originally just accompanied Chun Se out. He didn't have a good impression of the old monk from Lingyin Temple. In addition, he had always been resistant to that identity in his heart, so he was not interested at all. But considering that he was going to Beijing soon, he might have a look.

After getting some information, he followed the young monk deeper into the temple.

The young monk was obviously very familiar with the situation in the temple. After turning a few corners, Li Yucai saw that the exquisite buildings around him were all very familiar to him. He had never been there before. Moreover, it did not seem to be open to tourists and pilgrims.

, except for the monks and novices in twos and threes, not a single person could be seen.

"Donor, the master is in the pavilion in front. You can do whatever you want." The little monk looked businesslike. After explaining, he hurriedly prepared to leave. Obviously, because of the pure color, he didn't want to get too close to Li Yu at all.

Although the weather is not good today and we cannot see the bright moon, there are lanterns hanging everywhere in the temple, even in this remote place. Unfortunately, there are still a few lanterns here, and the light is a bit dim. Li Yu stared, and the pavilion had its back to him.

There was a person sitting, wearing a monk's robe and hat. From the back, it was impossible to tell whether he was someone he knew.

"Donor, sit down!" There was a sense of vicissitudes of life in the voice. This voice did not appear in Li Yu's memory. His left hand suddenly moved, and he clicked on the stone table, and then fell into silence again.

.

Li Yu walked away with doubts, his body glowing with a faint light. It seemed that he was worrying too much. The monk never looked back from the beginning to the end. While he was walking, he sat motionless.

There, all attention seems to be on the table.

This is an old monk with white beard and hair, much older than anyone Li Yu has ever seen. There is a chessboard on the table, with black and white pieces interlaced, and there is no big blank space in the chessboard. Li Yu plays chess

Just like tea, it's just a superficial understanding, just like he can't understand the outcome of black and white on the chessboard now. This is already the second person he has met who likes to play chess.

"Can the donor understand chess?" It seems that everyone who likes chess will ask this question.

Li Yu shook his head, "I don't understand, it's just that the chess pieces have to be placed on the spot." Nineteen paths, competing in the world.

The old monk held the black piece in his left hand and wandered around the chessboard for a long time, but he didn't make a move for a long time. His eyes swept across several places one by one. Li Yu, on the other hand, was the most afraid of being disturbed by people playing chess, so he just stood across from him quietly and watched.

With.

"Donor, if this piece was in your hands, where would you choose?" The old monk's eyes were still on those lines, but he asked about Li Yu, even though Li Yu had already said that he didn't understand chess at all.

As a layman, Li Yu hesitated for a while before pointing to a place where there were more sunspots. The old monk had also considered this place. The black and white ones were like soldiers, so there should be no danger if they fell around people.

"It's not right, it's not right, you have enough defense but not enough offense, you're going small at the expense of the big, it's hard to be grand." The old monk shook his head, "Look again, look again."

After listening to the old monk's comments, Li Yu still didn't understand that there was something in his words. It was just that he didn't know the other party's identity and purpose at this time, so he couldn't mess with it. But in this way, he looked at the chessboard with more eyes.

Worrying, after hearing what the old monk said, he didn't point out the next place for a long time.

Some people say that playing chess is like fighting, with the same marching formation and the same fighting and fighting, just to decide the outcome. Looking at the black and white stones on the chessboard, Li Yu seemed to have seen the desert with rolling yellow sand.

With an army so heavily armored and cold, Xiao Sha's artistic conception did not notice the change in his eyes at all.

The old monk seemed to feel it. He put the black stone in his left hand back into the chess box and looked up at Li Yu. He was looking at the chessboard with a blank look on his face. There was no intersection in his eyes, and there was even more confusion on his face.

A ferocious look. Apart from these, his eyes seemed to be dyed with a light red color, which looked very eye-catching in this dark environment.

"Killing scene? Haha, it's really not in vain for me to go there in person." The old monk was stunned for a moment, but then he laughed heartily. "Well, since you are in the emperor's house, how can you escape that killing?

"As he spoke, he stretched out his hand and swept the chess board on the table. The black and white stones immediately moved away, and the order was disrupted.

Li Yu sat slumped on the stone bench, panting, and looked at the old monk sitting opposite with confusion. Just now, he was just thinking about where the chess pieces would fall, but the scene of war suddenly appeared in his mind.

Then some broken fragments came one after another. The killing at the foot of Wudang Mountain, the bloodshed outside Liangzhou City, and the crying and fire in the ancient city of Loulan. The scenes were almost like real reproductions, but you could only watch them while you were in them.

"Donor, you are fine!" There was a hint of generosity and concern in the old monk's old voice.

Li Yu didn't have any clues on his face, so he had to withdraw his gaze, "Thank you, master, for your concern. I'm fine. By the way, I wonder why master is looking for me?" Since the master didn't mention it, he could only bring it up first, not just now.

How long did that moment of confusion last?

The old monk was slowly picking up the black stones on the table. He picked up seven or eight and put them back into the chess box at the corner. Li Yu saw this and helped. The chess pieces felt warm to the touch, as if

It looks like it has just been soaked in warm water.

"It's nothing important. I just saw the benefactor in the front yard. I thought of getting acquainted for a while, so I asked someone to invite him. Haha, the benefactor even invited Haihan!" The old monk started Tai Chi, but

This excuse is too obvious.

Li Yu smiled and said, "It's really my blessing to be summoned by the master. What's more, I saw a wonderful chess game, so I'm extremely grateful. It's just that competing in the world is the emperor's business.

People have made their own decisions, so why do they need others to give them advice?"

Li Yu's words made the smile on the old monk's face pause for a moment, "Your Highness was joking."

This title from the old monk made Li Yu's eyes light up. Just as he was about to ask, the old monk spoke again.

"Your Highness, there is no need to ask about the origin of the old monk. I am indeed from the capital. I came here just to tell His Highness. The Wudang Sect will not stay out of the matter just because someone is missing. There are some things that Your Highness doesn't care about, so why go there?

What do you care?" The old monk put the last white piece back into the chess box and closed the delicate lid.

After listening to this, Li Yu was a little confused. From his tone, it was clear that he came from the palace, and he was probably doing it for the benefit of that person. However, although these words contained some warning elements, they were more comforting.

, this purpose is a bit strange.

"Your Highness, it's getting late. The person asked me to bring this chess piece. The task assigned to me has finally been completed." After saying this, the old monk walked away and walked out of the pavilion. "It's the New Year, who doesn't want to think about it?

Can the whole family be reunited?" With a sigh, he disappeared in front of Li Yu in a few steps.

Looking at the two exquisite chess boxes on the table, Li Yu fell into thinking.
