"Yeah, the Emperor Taizu was taken aback when he heard it. He thought the old man was joking, so he said: Daoist, what do you have to do with the mountains, rivers, cities and fortresses you mentioned? How can I place a bet? The old man said: Isn't the young master just now Shouting to the sky, will this be your world? Taizu patted his head and said with a smile: It’s just a joke. But the old man shook his hand: No kidding, since the young master said this is your world, then use this foot today Huashan is a bet. If you win, this Huashan is yours. If I win, this Huashan is mine. Taizu laughed when he heard this, and then said: "Okay! Just follow the Taoist leader!" The old man asked: "Young master agrees." No repentance? Taizu nodded: A gentleman said something fast! Don’t repent! So the old man called the lay man beside him and said: My dear brother, you come to be a witness. The lay man nodded and clapped his hands: Willing to help! Just when the chess game was about to start, Taizu pointed at Heizi with his palm and said, "The Daoist please first!" The old man shook his head, grabbed a handful of white pieces and said, "Young Master, you hold Heizi, please first. Taizu was very upset, thinking that the old man let him hold Heizi went first because he looked down on him, even if he was exercising martial arts with others, he would let others do it first, so he would be a good man if he won, so he said to the old man: No! How can I bully the elder, so let's do it, you are born, I guess Odd or double! The old man nodded: If you guess the criterion first, but it doesn’t matter whether you guess or not, the young master must be holding the black ones first. Then he grabbed a handful of white pieces and said: "Young master, please guess. Taizu was a little angry, thinking that you The old man was still able to do the divination, so he shouted: Shan! The old man smiled and let go of his fist and placed the chess pieces on the board. Taizu saw that it was four pairs and a half, it was really a single, so Taizu had to hold the black pieces first. "

"It's good to go first, it's an advantage," Concubine Di said with a smile

"Well, Taizu thought so too, and just saw that the old man had lost a game, and his chess skills were not considered high, so he didn't worry about it. He immediately took the chess and made the move. At first, Taizu had the advantage, and he thought it would be a big win. Complete victory, who knows that the old man suddenly put out a killing formation, Taizu responded to the formation, the two sides were evenly matched, when it came to the critical moment, Taizu was determined to give it a go, unexpectedly he was defeated in the end."

"Emperor Taizu lost the first game, must be very unwilling?"

"Yeah, it's really annoying. Taizu picked up the tea bowl next to him, no matter who it belonged to, and drank it in one gulp. He didn't say much after that. After clearing the chessboard, it was another game. This time, Taizu set out Unexpectedly, the old man broke it easily, followed by a fierce counterattack, Taizu failed in several defenses, and lost the second round as a result."
