The girl in white led Liang Yan to the other corner of the bamboo forest, then magically took out a white jade chessboard from the storage bag and placed it on a large stone. At the same time, she took out two boxes of chess pieces, one black and one white.
After the two guessed, the girl in white held the black hand first, and Liang Yan held the white hand.
The girl in white stretched out her fingers, caught a black stone, and it landed in the middle of the chessboard with a pop!
"Tian Yuan!" Liang Yan narrowed his eyes, a hint of anger emerging.
Playing chess pays attention to a belly with golden horns and silver edges. Generally, the corners are occupied first, then the edges are removed, and then the center belly is developed.
Playing Tianyuan in the first move is disrespectful to his opponent. It implies that his chess skills are far superior to his opponent's, which means he despises Liang Yan.
Liang Yan suppressed the anger in his heart and said secretly: "I'll let you be arrogant for a while now, and I'll make you look good later!" Thinking like this, he quickly took out a white piece from the box and landed it on the chessboard. The girl in white followed closely.
Yizi. The two of them went back and forth, talking hand in hand in the bamboo forest.
Time flew by, and it was already dusk in the blink of an eye. At this time, Liang Yan's lips were tightly closed, and sweat was pouring from his forehead. He originally thought that he was very good at chess, but he was getting more and more frightened as the game went on. At this time, he felt quite desperate.
On the other hand, the girl in white always had a leisurely and contented expression, and even hummed a few songs from time to time.
After a long time, Liang Yan finally made another stone. The girl in white glanced briefly, and immediately followed up with a stone falling on the chessboard. After the stone fell, Liang Yan looked up and saw that the black stones were in full swing, and the white stones were defeated, filling the mountains and fields.
They were all defeated. They could only sigh helplessly and surrender.
The girl in white smiled and said with an old-fashioned look: "My junior brother's chess skills are acceptable. I can barely use 30% of my chess skills. I still need to study more."
Then he said: "But I am willing to admit defeat. You should respectfully call me 'senior sister' three times now!" He also emphasized the word "respectfully" in his words.
Liang Yan had a look of helplessness on his face, but he had something to say first, so he could only admit defeat at this time. He clasped his fists at the girl in white, bent down and bowed, and respectfully called "Senior Sister" three times.
The girl in white squinted her eyes with a look of great enjoyment. She patted Liang Yan on the shoulder and said in a deep voice: "Junior brother's qualifications are not bad, but he is just one of the chess players. He must study hard and practice hard. If he perseveres, he may not be able to succeed in the future."
Liang Yan saw that she was only about the same age as him, that is, thirteen or fourteen years old, so she pretended to be a master and uncle and gave him instructions, which made her look ridiculous.
After all, he was a young man at heart, so he couldn't hold it back for a moment, and he burst out laughing.
The girl originally had her left hand behind her back and her right hand on Liang Yan's shoulder, looking like an outsider. But Liang Yan's smile somewhat ruined the atmosphere, making the girl in white's face darken.
However, she rolled her eyes and said: "Don't blame senior sister for not giving you a chance. If you are not convinced, you can challenge me tomorrow night at the top of Cangmu Peak. As long as you can win a game from me, I will give you the barrier-breaking pill."
Presented."
"Is this true?" Liang Yan's eyes lit up.
"It's a joke. It's just a barrier-breaking pill. How can I lie to you?" The girl in white said and threw him a token.
"Don't say I won't give you a chance. This is the token of a chess disciple. With this card, you can go to the chess library to borrow chess records and books. With your current strength, there is no way you can be my opponent."
Liang Yan reached out to take the token and saw a stone chessboard painted on it. However, it did not indicate whether it was the inner or outer door. There was only a word "butterfly" engraved under the chessboard. After putting the token away, Liang Yan
He nodded and said: "Okay, I will definitely go to the appointment tomorrow night."
The girl in white showed a satisfied look, suddenly remembered something, and said: "By the way, I almost forgot, forget about Cangmu Peak, I'll give this to you too!" He took out a piece of parchment and handed it to Liang Yan's hand.
.
Liang Yan lowered his head and saw that it was a map. The route on it was crooked and the destination was Cangmu Peak. Liang Yan suddenly remembered that Cangmu Peak was not included in the sect map Uncle Zhou had given him before.
place.
When he raised his head and wanted to ask, he found that the girl in white had already walked away. Her voice humming a tune could be heard in the bamboo forest, and she seemed to be in a good mood. Liang Yan shook his head with a wry smile, put away the map, and
Turned around and went down the mountain.
That night, Liang Yan went straight to the chess library, borrowed a chess book that he thought was pretty good, and then returned to the dormitory to watch the game all night. He was a young man and always wanted to win, but this time he lost to a girl, which made him lose face.
The loss inspired his fighting spirit.
Anyway, I can't make any progress in my cultivation now, so I just have to beat this little girl in chess, not to mention the barrier-breaking pill as a bet.
Liang Yan spent the whole night studying chess books, and felt that the Xian family's chess records were really extraordinary, and were very different from his previous knowledge. He stayed up all night, and felt like he had a sudden enlightenment and discovered a new world.
The next night, Liang Yan found the way according to the map and came to the top of Cangmu Peak. The entire peak of Cangmu Peak was bare and the vegetation was withered, but there was a big green tree on the top of the mountain, which was lush and green.
At this time, there was a girl in white sitting under the tree. There was a chessboard in front of her, and on the chessboard was the end game. The girl held the white piece in her hand, but she seemed to be hesitating.
Liang Yan silently walked to her side and lowered his head to look at the mess. He saw that Heizi was as powerful as a tiger, baring his teeth and claws. He had opened his bloody mouth to Bai Zi and was about to devour them all in the next moment. Although Bai Zi tried his best, he was like a dragon.
Trapped in the shallows, there is no way to reach heaven.
Liang Yan watched for a long time, and no matter how he looked at it, he felt that Bai Zi had no choice but to die, so he sighed and said, "Bai Zi's strength has been exhausted. I'm afraid it will be difficult to make a comeback."
The girl in white came back to her senses, glanced at him, and said: "You said the same thing, this endgame is too difficult to solve." After a pause, she added: "But did you know that someone had cracked this endgame before?"
Liang Yan was shocked after hearing this, and looked at the endgame on the chessboard. He thought it was simply a fantasy and unbelievable.
However, the woman in white put away the chess pieces on the chessboard one by one, smiled at him and said: "You are quite punctual, you came quite early."
Liang Yan thought to himself: "Aren't you earlier than me?"
The two sat down in front of the chessboard. After guessing the pieces, the girl in white still took the lead. However, this time the girl did not start with Tianyuan, but with Xiaomu. Liang Yan also changed his previous attitude of underestimating the enemy and advancing step by step.
, steady and steady.
Liang Yan's talent in chess is actually not bad, but he has only learned chess skills in the mortal world. How can he compete with the chess skills of the immortal family? After yesterday's disastrous defeat, he learned the hard way and spent one night studying the chess books of Yixing Pavilion. Although it is impossible to improve his chess skills by leaps and bounds.
, but my horizons and knowledge have increased a lot.
Yesterday, there were many murderous moves that were incomprehensible today, but today Liang Yan could vaguely distinguish some of them. He even saw some changes in the girl's moves in several key places, which saved the day.
In a game of chess, the girl in white who is the main attacker is like a general attacking a city; Liang Yan is the main defender, like a commander who is besieging a dangerous city.
The two of them went back and forth, and at first they were evenly matched.
It's just that the girl's chess moves were continuous and she continued to attack and kill. Although Liang Yan barely managed to defend for a few rounds, his follow-up was weak, and in the end he lost one stone and lost the whole game.
Liang Yan felt bitter in his heart. This girl was so good at chess. It would be extremely difficult for him to surpass her and get the barrier-breaking pill!
But for the first time, the girl did not laugh at him this time, but stared at the chessboard with a look of deep contemplation in her eyes.
After a while, I heard her say leisurely: "What did you do last night? Did you really go to the library to learn chess?"
Liang Yan smiled bitterly and said, "Not bad!"
The girl in white raised her head, stared at him and said, "Did you learn what you did today from books?"
Liang Yan was stunned for a moment and said subconsciously: "Yes!" But then he reacted and shook his head and said: "Not entirely, the chess records in the book are all dead. I am playing chess with you, not against the chess records, so it is naturally different.
For example, this twenty-third move, I based it on you."
Liang Yan followed the way he thought when playing chess and told the girl in white one by one.
".Another example is the one hundred and thirty-seventh move." At this point, the girl in white suddenly interrupted him with a wave of her hand.
"Okay, I'm tired today, you can go back."
Liang Yan didn't know why and glanced at her blankly, but seeing that she didn't want to say anything more, he could only stand up and leave. Just when he turned around and looked back, a girl's clear voice suddenly came from behind: "From now on this time in the evening
, you can come to me to play chess, as long as you can beat me in a game, I will count all the bets agreed before."
Liang Yan felt slightly happy, but said without looking back: "Then I will thank the girl in advance for the pill!"
When the girl in white heard his lazy words, she couldn't help but spit: "Bah! Just blow it!".
However, she watched Liang Yan's back gradually disappearing on the mountain road, and couldn't help but murmur to herself: "It's not an exaggeration to describe this person's chess skills as a thousand miles a day. Is there really such a genius in the world?"
