Mengshan Army

Chapter 37 The first meeting with Chen Chao 5

Under Chen Chao's order, Youshi went to the kitchen to set up a sumptuous lunch in person. Chen Chao didn't have a dedicated cook, and Youshi usually took care of the kitchen affairs himself.Because her husband stayed with her, You asked Chen Shu and Chen San's family in the front yard for help.Chen San is a long-term worker of the Chen family, and has been with Chen Chao for more than ten years. Chen Chao treats Chen San as his family.

"Shu'er, you were too rude today. It's rare for your uncle to meet a friend you can get along with. How can you make your uncle lose face again and again? It's as if our Chen family has no tutor." Youshi blamed her niece.

Chen Shu was scolded by her aunt, and murmured, "I just think he's bragging, like a liar. Especially his entourage, who looked around with treacherous eyes, is a real thief."

"Baodu Gu has been defeated, what thief dares to take the idea of ​​Sanzhuang Lianbao?" Youshi laughed, "Besides, who hasn't seen your uncle? How could he be deceived by two young people?"

"He always talks about things in the United States to deceive people. My uncle has never been abroad, so it's hard to say that he was deceived..."

"That's a man's business. Don't make your uncle angry. It's rare for him to be happy today..."

"Yes, auntie."

The two chatted, completely ignoring Chen Sanjia, who was squatting on the ground to pick up vegetables.

The ingredients are available at home, but there is pork. The day before yesterday, I went to the market to buy two catties of meat, and Youshi asked Chen Shu to kill a chicken. This is a meat dish.The rest are a few vegetables grown by the village itself. Fortunately, the season is good, and there is no shortage of vegetarian dishes.

"That Mr. Long has indeed seen the big world. Who is your uncle? How can ordinary people deceive him? You go and see what they do, this dish will be ready soon..."

Chen Shu was thinking about the math problem, walked slowly to the main room, tiptoed and looked through the open window, saw her uncle and the man surnamed Long preparing to play chess, she couldn't help being surprised, thinking that this liar is really good You are proficient, my uncle's chess skills have never been rivaled in ten miles and eight villages, this time he will look good to a liar... Seeing that surnamed Long sitting in front of the chessboard, I don't know what he was thinking.

Long Qian was looking at the chessboard.

The chessboard is very heavy, presumably it is made of catalpa wood, it seems that it is quite old.Touching the chess pieces again, they were as warm and moist as jade. Long Qian picked up the black and white pieces, and looked closely at the window. He saw that the black pieces were pitch black and moist, with a hint of green around the edges, and the white pieces were crystal clear and soft, with a slight yellowish color emerging from them.

"Is this the legendary Yunzi?"

"Mr. Long is indeed well-informed. It is Yunzi. This pair of chess pieces is a family heirloom. It was purchased by the great-grandfather, and it has been around for nearly a hundred years."

"Oh, so Long will be timid before fighting."

"how you said that?"

"Mr. Chen's family law has a long history, is Long a rival?"

"One game of Go is all about comprehension. I heard from my grandfather that my ancestors were so obsessed with the way of chess that they almost forgot to sleep and eat, and even the imperial examinations were abolished. But when they met a boy who had only learned chess for four months, he suffered a crushing defeat! My ancestors never got sick. From the beginning, he left a message saying that the skill of chess depends entirely on Wu's surname, and cannot be forced. Therefore, even though Chen Mouqi never leaves his hands, perhaps in Mr. Long's eyes, it is not worth mentioning at all. Let's not talk about it, let's talk about it. "

Long Qian held the black first, which is also a respect for Chen Chao. When the first move was made on the chessboard, Chen Chao didn't object. Long Qian was taken aback, has the seat system been cancelled?Looking up at Chen Chao, he saw that Chen Chao was also looking at him, "I heard that Japan has already canceled the seat, and if you don't want to see it...well, just go as you are used to."

Long Qian thought to himself, "That's not necessary. My chess skills are sloppy, and there is not much difference between a chess piece and a chess piece." Long Qian placed two black and one white chess pieces symmetrically on the four-pointed star position. This is the so-called chess piece. Then lightly hang a sunspot on the white corner.

It's a very normal way for Xiao Fei to hang. Chen Chao didn't think about it, and immediately used a high trap, and the battle immediately started in the upper left corner.

Both of them moved their pieces very quickly, after a while, dozens of pieces have been placed on the chessboard.

Of course Jiang Yun, who was watching the game, didn't know how to play Go, but this kid was the best at observing words and expressions. Seeing Long Qian's calm expression, and Chen Chao began to take long exams frequently, and his moves became slower and slower. He knew in his heart that his boss might have the winning ticket.Sure enough, after making dozens more moves, Chen Chao sighed, "Mr. Long has a profound layout, and his moves are exquisite, Chen has conceded." As he said, Chen Chao grabbed a handful of white pieces and threw them on the chessboard.

There was a scream from outside the window, Jiang Yun turned his head to look, only saw a figure from behind, it turned out to be the girl with big braids peeping.Probably she didn't expect her uncle to lose, so she screamed.

"The outcome is not yet decided, why did Mr. Chen admit defeat?" Long Qian stared at the chessboard.

"The classics of chess say that the taller is in the stomach. Although I have more ground, but the overall situation is under your control, there is no hope of getting back. Let's do it again." After finally finding a good opponent, Chen Chao didn't want to let it go Guo Longqian.

"Uncle, the food and drink are ready. Auntie is calling you to eat." This time Chen Shu came to the main room to invite her.

"Wait a minute..." Chao Chen, who was caught in it, didn't even lift his head.

The second game was still the same, with less than a hundred moves, Super Chen conceded defeat. Facing the middle game, Super Chen thought hard, and his two lone pieces fell into a state of being entangled and attacked, and at most he could only survive one piece... Super Chen decided It's because my layout is too bad. As soon as I enter the middle game, the situation is stable. In Go terms, it means that the chessboard has become smaller and everyone else has settled down. Come to kill chess, in order to make a living, of course you have to give in step by step, and you can't play this chess.

"Mr. Chen, the situation is promising, why just throw in the towel and admit defeat?"

"The chess game is set, even if you want to live alone, all the officials will be snatched by you...Mr. Long is very good at chess, especially in the layout stage, a few seemingly useless idle chess pieces have played a big role... Once fifty hands are passed, I know that there is nothing to be done."

"How do you know I won't make mistakes? Entering the official stage, if the order is wrong twice, the situation will be overturned. Shulong said bluntly, Mr. Chen has two bad habits. One is to stick to local gains and losses and underestimate the overall situation. Second, it lacks tenacity. I really think that the way of Go is not so much to play better than anyone else, but to make fewer mistakes than anyone else. But otherwise, the gap is widening at most, what is the difference in the result? What is the difference between losing one piece and losing a hundred pieces? But what if the opponent makes a mistake? Isn’t the opportunity coming?”

"Haha, what you said is reasonable. But wouldn't that be a rogue?" Although he lost the game, Chen Chao seemed very happy.

"How can you be a rogue? Although Go is a game, it is deeply integrated with the art of war. Winning or losing is its sole purpose. The result is more important than the process. Think about the battle between Chu and Han, and Liu Bang's repeated defeats. In the end, the next battle was laid. The 400-year foundation of the Han Dynasty. If Mr. Chen's surname is used, how can there be a glorious Han Dynasty? Even the name of our Han nationality will not exist."

Jiang Yun was stunned for a moment, he learned countless things from Long Qian, and today he knows that the name of the Han nationality comes from the Han Dynasty.

"I would like to be taught. Mr. Long, where did you learn Go? Does the United States also play Go?"

"My father loves Go very much, and it was first taught by my father."

"There are such masters overseas." Chen Chao sighed, "I once played chess with a boy in the past, and it was the same way. Before I exerted all my strength, I lost the game. When I came back, I couldn't understand it, but today you have to give me some pointers." , why exactly?"

"As I said just now, Mr. Chen is too obsessed with the details. I have seen the ancient records of famous Chinese writers, such as Danghu ten rounds. Although the fight is exquisite, it is not good enough to grasp the overall situation. This is what Mr. Chen said Mistakes made. Americans are not good at this, but the Orientals have already surpassed the blue in Go, far surpassing our country."

"Oh, Mr. Long and the Japanese?"

"I played. It was just an amateur five-dan, and I was no match. I played three games, and I lost two games. I heard from him that there are hundreds of professional chess players in that country, who only play chess for a living. Their chess skills are exquisite. Words cannot describe it. Even if my six sons are given, there is absolutely no hope of winning."

"Oh, the gap is so big?" Chen Chao was obsessed with chess, and he had no opponent. Today, when he fought Long Qian, he felt that he was tied up and unable to perform well. However, there is someone in the world who can make Long Qian's six masters, so he is fascinated.

Chen Shu has completely changed her perception of Long Qian so far. This person is really talented, and he is definitely not a liar, because his uncle has to sit alone almost every day to play scores. Chen Shu knows the rules of Go. She watched the two games of chess from beginning to end, and it was exactly as what my uncle said, once fifty moves were passed, my uncle's chess was restrained by the opponent, unable to use his strength.

If it is a liar, this person is also a very good liar.Chen Shu couldn't help staring at Long Qian and appraising him.

"Shu'er, what are you staring at? Now that the food and drink are ready, let's go eat." Chao Chen laughed, "Have a good time, have a good time." I don't know if the fun he said refers to the fun of playing chess or the fun of chatting.

Chen Shu blushed blushing. Fortunately, the girl had dark skin, so she couldn't tell, "Then let's go."

I wish book friends a happy Dragon Boat Festival!
