Chapter 24: The Oath of Prosperity Ten Miles of Chang'an
Li Longqian once found a book called "Ten Jue" in Jiang Chengcheng's library. It is said that it was left by Du Lechi, the first national player in the former dynasty. Li Longqian's evaluation of the book was: "Ci
It is profound yet easy to understand, summarizing the basic principles of Go and can be regarded as a golden rule."
You must know that if these words are said by ordinary people, they may not have any reference value, but if they are said by Li Longqian, it is the first-class rare thing in the world. After all, one person can say "The Theory of Common Life" is useless.
If a person who knows books can say which book is a good book, then it must be a good book.
"Ten Strategies", "Jingu Nine Game Pictures", and "Fengchi Pictures" are the three Go masterpieces left by Du Lechi. Even today, they are regarded as classics by the chess community, but Li Longqian sees
After finishing the most basic "Ten Jue", he lost interest in Du Lechi's book. Jiang Chengcheng once curiously asked why, and Li Long simply replied that it was useless, and then stopped.
Li Longqian felt that learning chess is actually the same as learning martial arts. If an apprentice does not come down from the mountain, he will never surpass his master in this life. Similarly, if a person's thinking is only limited to books, then he will not be able to surpass his master in this life.
Du Lechi's achievements are that there is no possibility of any breakthrough while he is still alive, so Li Longqian thinks that reading is okay, but within his own ability, books are dead things, and living things are rigid in thinking. This is not a cost-effective business.
The heavy rain came at a moment's notice, pouring down on the ground like a pouring water.
However, Jiang Chengcheng, who was squatting on the stone, didn't seem to notice. His body still maintained the posture of stroking his beard with one hand and holding the chess piece with the other, while his eyes were fixed on the chess board on the stone table.
"Old Jiang, if you keep pouring water like this, I'm afraid you won't be able to survive this year's New Year's Eve." Li Longqian looked at Jiang Chengcheng casually and said with a smile.
Jiang Chengcheng still didn't respond, and his cloudy eyes were still looking at the black and white chessboard. Li Longqian knew he was bored, so he started playing with the chess pieces in the chess box.
Just like this, the old and the young, if you don't move and I won't move, they all sit in the heavy rain, still relying on the torrential rain washing their bodies, without any intention of retreating.
About half an hour later, Jiang Chengcheng took action.
"Crack!"
The white chess piece settled, splashing rain on the chessboard.
"If you hadn't moved, I would have thought you were dead."
Li Long replied with a slight smile, and then quickly played a chess piece. The black chess piece was particularly dazzling on the chessboard.
"Dip, drip, drip."
The heavy rain kept washing the chessboard. After Li Longqian finished his move, Jiang Chengcheng's right hand that was about to reach into the chess box suddenly stopped, and then he touched his beard and fell into silence again.
among.
Li Longqian poured out the water in his chess box. Then he saw that Jiang Chengcheng still had no reaction, so he helped Jiang Chengcheng pour out the water in the white chess box.
The rain didn't seem to be getting lighter, but it seemed to be getting heavier.
An hour later, the sky slowly darkened.
Li Longqian shouted to Jiang Chengcheng impatiently: "Old Jiang, if you lose, you lose. Why waste time with me in this heavy rain?"
Jiang Chengcheng was speechless.
About an hour later, it became completely dark.
Li Longqian lay on the chessboard, letting the heavy rain wash over his back. He looked at Jiang Chengcheng helplessly and shouted: "Old man, can this game be a draw?"
Jiang Chengcheng was still speechless.
But unexpectedly, there was a girl in bright clothes beside Jiang Chengcheng. The girl stood quietly beside Jiang Chengcheng with an umbrella and a lantern.
Li Longqian saw that Jiang Chengcheng still didn't speak, so he focused his eyes on the girl next to him. After a while, Li Longqian asked with a smile: "I don't see you dressed like this on weekdays, why are you dressed so colorfully today on a rainy day?
?”
The girl gave Li Longqian a faint look and said nothing.
"Is it possible that you will get married tomorrow?" Li Longqian thought for a moment and shouted loudly.
The girl still glanced at Li Longqian indifferently and said nothing.
"Yes, I guess no one is willing to marry you. If anyone marries you, it will be the most pitiful and unlucky person in the world who has done the most unlucky thing in the world."
Li Longqian asked and answered himself, then slowly stood up, stretched out his hand to catch the rain falling from the sky, then slowly walked to the girl's side, looked at the girl with a smile and said: "If it doesn't work, please advise your old man, it's so wasteful."
I'm really afraid that something will happen to him when he goes down there."
The girl still didn't speak.
"Isn't it true that both your father and daughter have become mute today? Why don't you say anything to me?" Li Longqian walked around in circles twice and then wiped the rain off his face, looking at the father and daughter in the rain and shouting a little collapsed.
road.
"Crack."
Jiang Chengcheng finally made a move at this time, and White moved again. This time the splash was obviously much bigger than last time.
When Li Longqian saw Jiang Chengcheng moving, he quickly ran back to his stone pier and started to make steady moves with the black chess piece. After making the move, Li Longqian looked at Jiang Chengcheng cautiously, fearing that Jiang Chengcheng would still make the same move this time.
After thinking about it for three or four hours, you must know that according to Jiang
If this speed continues, they may not be able to finish the game even tomorrow morning, but this time Jiang Chengcheng disappointed Li Longqian. After Li Longqian finished playing, Jiang Chengcheng followed the move without any hesitation.
It’s fast and accurate, and it’s obviously something that has been planned for a long time.
"Don't be greedy for victory."
Jiang Chengcheng muttered something softly after making his move.
"Entry should be slow."
Li Longqianluozi then recited another sentence.
"Attack each other and look after me."
Jiang Chengcheng's third son.
"The abandoned son rushes to the first place."
Li Longqian's fourth son.
"If you give up the little one, you will be the big one."
Jiang Chengwuzi.
"You must give up in times of danger."
Li Longqian's six sons.
"Be careful not to rush too fast."
Jiang Chengsheng seven sons.
“Move accordingly.”
Li Longqian's eighth son.
"He is strong enough to protect himself."
Jiang Chengjiuzi.
"Strength alone leads to peace."
Li Longqian's ten sons.
After ten moves, Jiang Chengcheng slowly put down the chess box that had been filled with rain in his hand, caressed his beard and said with a smile: "You won, I lost nine ways."
"You knew you had lost before Shizi, why are you still holding on until now?" Li Longqian put down the chess box and looked at Jiang Chengcheng and asked.
Jiang Chengcheng heard this and turned to look at the girl next to him, smiling without saying a word.
"Forget it, if you don't tell me, I won't ask and leave!"
Li Longqian waved his hand and then ran out of the door while twisting his shirt.
"The chess record you used today is not your chess strategy. Who created it?" Jiang Chengcheng quickly stood up and shouted to Li Longqian in the heavy rain.
"Have you ever heard of Du Lechi?"
In the heavy rain, Li Longqian stopped and turned around and shouted to Jiang Chengcheng.
"Nonsense! When did Du Lechi create such a chess record?"
Jiang Chengcheng shouted with his eyes widened and his tone was angry and powerful.
Li Longqian saw the old man's appearance and smiled helplessly, then slowly walked back to Jiang Chengcheng, then reached out to knock down the chess pieces on the chessboard. He held black in his left hand and white in his right hand, and started on the chessboard with his left and right bows.
He laid out the chess game and chanted: "Play a piece from the southeast nine."
"East five, south twelve, put ten" Jiang Chengcheng replied.
"Put one son out of ten in the west, eight and south." Li Longqian said.
"Ten in West Jiunan, one son." Jiang Chengcheng answered.
The two of them were talking to each other, and they had a total of thirty-six chess moves. Li Longqian suddenly put down the chess box and looked at Jiang Chengcheng and asked: "Who wins and who loses? How much does the loser lose?"
"Black loses, loses nine ways." Jiang Chengcheng answered.
"How many ways can I beat you today?" Li Longqian asked again.
"Nine...road."
"Du Lechi's game of "Deng Ai's opening of Shu" is well known to the world. Today I just played a reverse game of "Deng Ai's opening of Shu" against Qi Dao. You don't know it?" Li Longqian looked at Jiang Chengcheng and whispered.
asked.
"boom!"
The thunder shook the ears, and more importantly, shocked the hearts.
Jiang Chengcheng stared blankly at the black and white pieces on the chessboard, feeling suffocated in his heart.
Seeing the old man's appearance, Li Longqian stepped forward helplessly and said softly: "Back then, Du Lechi learned the "Deng Ai Kai Shu Move" from the old woman and became the world's best chess player. Today I am playing with Du Lechi.
In the middle school, the counter-"Deng Ai Kai Shu movement" defeated you, the teacher, and you have not lost anything."
Jiang Chengcheng looked at the chess pieces on the chessboard and was speechless. His mind was full of Li Longqian's words: "You have to know how to adapt when studying. Remember half of what is in the book and forget half of it. Memorize everything. How can you become that book?"
how?"
"Let's go."
Li Longqian waved his sleeves and then ran outside the courtyard door despite the pouring rain.
Jiang Chengcheng looked at Li Longqian's back and was silent for a moment, then turned to look at the girl beside him and asked: "Aren't you going to send it off? If you don't send it off, I'm afraid you won't have a chance in this life?"
"Dad, who is Du Lechi in your mouth?" Jiang Youfu asked.
"It's me." Jiang Chengcheng replied slowly.
Jiang Youfu was stunned for a moment, then threw down the umbrella in her hand and burst into tears, and rushed into the pouring rain.
Jiang Chengcheng looked at the chess pieces on the chessboard. In fact, Jiang Chengcheng knew that he had lost before the tenth piece. The reason he delayed was to let his daughter come out and see this young man again, because this meeting might last a lifetime.
It's better than not seeing it.
Whether it was Jiang Chengcheng or Du Lechi, he had lost twice in his life, once to the old slave, and the other time to the young man with the name of dragon.
…
"Didn't you say there's no need to send it off?" Li Longqian looked back at the girl in the rain and shouted at the top of her lungs.
"Will you come back?" The rain wet the girl's new clothes, which she put on specially to send him off.
"meeting."
"when?"
"When I become famous all over the world, if she is still not by my side, I will come back and take you to the top of Chang'an City to see the prosperity of the city."
Jiang Youfu stood in the rain in silence for a long time, and then replied: "I'll wait for you."
Li Longqian slowly turned around and softly recited Guo Youfu's favorite song "The Ancient Meaning of Chang'an".
Chang'an Avenue is narrow and sloping, with green oxen, white horses and seven-scented carriages.
Jade chariots passed across the main hall, and golden whips came to the Hou family.
The dragon holds a treasure in its head to catch the morning sun, and the phoenix spits out its tassels to carry the sunset.
Hundreds of feet of gossamer threads are vying around the tree, and a flock of delicate birds are singing together.
There are thousands of flowers and butterflies singing at the door, green trees and silver terraces with thousands of colors.
The windows along the complex road are decorated with acacias, and the two bridges are linked by phoenix wings.
Who is still waiting for the oath of prosperous Chang'an, who is more serious?
