Master Kong Zhongni

Chapter 40
The sun was shining in the sky, Zaiyu and Zigong were sitting opposite each other in the backyard of Zigong's house.

It stands to reason that they should be listening to lectures in the academy at this time, but today is an exception.

Since the master decided to become an official, he has been frequently summoned by the monarch.

Although there is still some time before the summer solstice, Master has not been officially awarded the official position of Xiao Zongbo, but under the instruction of the monarch and Yang Hu, he has already begun to familiarize himself with the relevant work in advance.

Early this morning, Master was called to the palace again.

His old man should also consider that the students have been studying hard recently, so he simply gave everyone a day off.

Zaiyu felt that he was idle because he was idle, so he brought his treasured Liubo chessboard to visit Zigong's house.

Zaiyu said he wanted to play Liubo, but Zigong refused at first.

Because the Master once said: A gentleman does not know how to blog.

His old man believes that if you are obsessed with Liubo, a game of fighting each other, it will make people feel brave and ruthless, and then go on the wrong path.It is also easy to make people addicted to the game and lose their minds when playing with things, so a gentleman should not be obsessed with Liubo.

But Zaiyu told Zigong that the master also said: "It's hard to eat all day long and have nothing to do!"Are there no gamers?For it, it's still virtuous.

It means that if a person only thinks about having enough food all day, and doesn’t have to worry about other places, it is really too difficult!Isn't there games like dice and chess playing against each other?Even doing these things is better than doing nothing!

Zigong felt that what Jai Yu said was right, so the two played Liubo happily.

Who knew that the two of them would spend the whole morning playing, except for eating time, they would almost always play chess on the chessboard.

On the chessboard in front of the two, there are six white pieces and four black pieces according to the curve, and there is a stick with six chopsticks beside it.

Among them, Baizi belonged to Zigong, while Heizi belonged to Zaiyu.

According to the rules of Liubo, both opponents have six chess pieces at the beginning of the game.

But in the middle game of this chess game, Zi Gong didn't get caught not only one piece, but also held three upgraded 'Xiao' chess pieces.

But Zaiyu not only lost two 'Scatter' chess pieces, but only one 'Xiao' chess piece, so he was clearly at a disadvantage.

Now it was Zigong's turn to play chess, I saw him picking up the stick and shaking it, still muttering something.

"Six, give me six! I want six!"

click!

A chopstick was shaken out of the stick and fell to the ground.

The two of them raised their heads to look together, Zi Gong's expression changed slightly, while Zai Yu couldn't help showing a contemptuous smile.

"A little bit, the younger brother."

Zigong was not annoyed, he laughed, picked up the 'Xiao' chess piece and moved forward across the waterway, attacking Zaiyu's territory.

Zigong Youzai Youzai said: "My son, you are still stubborn, you will lose this game. The total number of chess pieces, I am six and you are four. The number of 'Xiao' chess pieces, I am three and you are one.

In terms of points, I have four points in my hand, as long as I get two more points, I can win, but you have no points.

In this round, from chess pieces to points, I have all the advantages, so what do you use to fight me! "

Zai Yu exhaled disdainfully from his nasal cavity.

"Hmph! A real gambler knows how to look at the overall situation, and a fake gambler only cares about the gains and losses of a city and a pool. In my eyes, you are nothing more than a chicken and a dog, and you are a peddler!"

Zaiyu snatched the stick from Zigong's hand and shouted.

"Death!"

As soon as the words fell, Zai Yu closed his eyes and frowned, and shook the stick with both hands crazily, and even the crown cap fell to the ground with violent movements.

Zigong propped himself on the ground with one hand, pointed at the chessboard with the other, and shouted arrogantly.

"Can you kill me in seconds? Can you kill me in seconds with an 'Owl' chess piece? If you can kill me in seconds, I'll eat the chessboard on the spot!"

click!

When the chopsticks hit the ground, it was a big six o'clock!

Zi Gong's heart tightened suddenly, almost losing his composure.

"Six o'clock, this..."

But he quickly regained his composure: "You are lucky, kid. But what if you roll a six?"

"How about it?"

Zaiyu raised his sleeves, crossed the waterway with his own 'Xiao' chess, walked six steps in a row, and captured Zigong's three 'San' chess in a row.

"Two points for one 'scattered' chess piece, three points for consecutive chess pieces, eight points for a total of eight points for three pieces. I win with six points, and I will give you the extra two points."

Zigong looked at the chessboard again, only to realize that he had missed a move.

"This... this doesn't count, I didn't see..."

Zaiyu raised his sleeve to cover his mouth, squinted at Zigong and smiled.

"You want to play tricks, don't you?"

Zigong blushed and argued, "This... how can this be cheating? I just suddenly remembered the teaching of the master, a gentleman doesn't know well!"

As Zigong was talking, he stood up suddenly and moved back slightly.

Then he ran away.

But Zaiyu had expected that he would play this trick a long time ago, he quickly grabbed Zigong's collar, and then tripped him with his calf.

Zaiyu originally planned to use the mourner's unique skill "nailing the tombstone" to end Zigong.

However, Zigong's will to resist was extremely strong, so he had no choice but to use his joint skills to drag Zigong into the ground first.

He put his legs on Zigong's chest, held the chessboard with one hand, and opened Zigong's mouth with the other.

Zaiyu yelled arrogantly: "Open your mouth, I have to stuff the chessboard into your mouth today. Fight against my Qufu gambling monster, and still want to have good fruit?"

Yan Hui was sorting out the bamboo slips in the front yard, when he suddenly heard a noise coming from the back yard, he put down his work and went to check.

As a result, as soon as he arrived, he saw scattered chess pieces all over the floor, as well as the MMA unrestricted mixed martial arts co-starred by Zi Gong and Jae Yu.

Yan Hui was terribly frightened. He pointed at the two of them tremblingly and said, "Zi Wo, Zi Gong, how can you... how can you play Liubo?"

After Yan Hui said this, he turned his head and ran away.

Seeing this, Zigong yelled that it was not good, kicked Zaiyu away, and yelled with a ferocious face.

"Ziyuan! If you dare to ask your master to give us a small report, I will never end with you!"

Jae Yu's mind was quite sober, and he scolded: "It's useless to speak harshly, you can see the route he's escaping, it's obviously going to the academy!

Before the master comes back from the palace, let's quickly catch this kid, or it will be over! "

Zigong just woke up like a dream, and the two of them didn't have time to arrange their clothes, they could only simply pat the dust off their bodies, and hurriedly strode towards Yan Hui.

In this way, the two chased all the way behind, and Yan Hui ran all the way ahead.

Zigong scolded Zaiyu while running.

"It's all your fault! You fed Ziyuan too much. A few days ago, he would gasp for breath after taking two short steps. You can see that he is running faster than the mixed-haired rabbits in the field!"

Zaiyu was not in the mood to argue with Zigong at this time, he just wanted to catch Yan Hui as soon as possible.

If the master knew that the two of them played Liubo every day during the holidays, they would really have to go around.

The two swept across the streets and alleys of Qufu like lightning, and finally caught Yan Hui on the street in front of the school.

Yan Hui was caught and still didn't give up, he yelled towards the academy, "Master! Ziwo, Zigong and the others...uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu..."

Zai Yu covered Yan Hui's mouth, put his fingers between his lips, "Shhh, Master is very tired recently, so don't bother him with such a trivial matter."

Zigong looked around for something like straw that could stop his mouth.

While searching, he muttered, "I'm right. Let's resolve internal conflicts internally, so don't disturb the old man."

The two of them were preparing to go home with Yan Hui when suddenly a question came from behind them.

"My son, Zi Gong! Why did you come here!"
