Chapter three hundred and forty-three: chess in the city, chess in the city
News in the rivers and lakes seems to spread very quickly, mostly because of the comings and goings of people in the rivers and lakes. There is a war in Dongbian Mountain. This news seems to have been implemented, almost to the point where everyone knows it.
, but no one can say clearly who the person fighting the battle is. Some say it is two peerless masters of the Xuantian realm, and some say it is a red-haired boy following the empress in white.
, and the most outrageous one is that the gods of the world fought with the ghosts of Dongbian Mountain. There are three theories, but the most common one is that a red-haired boy had a fight with the empress in white, because there was someone there that night.
He saw an injured red-haired man and also saw the Hundred Ghosts Nightwalking in Dongbian Mountain. Based on these two points alone, he could deduce the two sides of the war.
As for the outcome of the war, it would definitely be a lose-lose situation.
Because the red-haired boy's injuries were horrific, and after that battle, there were no more ghosts walking at night, no more bandits, and no more ladies in white in the Dongbian Mountains.
Li Longqian took a trip and returned peace to Dongbian Mountain.
…
"Brother Li, there is a city ahead, why don't we take a rest for the night." At some point, the bamboo pole in Chen Banliang's hand was gone and replaced with a peach blossom branch.
April is the best time for peach blossoms, they are in bud in March, and they have fallen in May.
When Li Longqian heard this, he stretched out his hand to lift the curtain of the carriage and looked up at Chen Banliang. He had been traveling for two consecutive days. The two girls in the carriage and Li Longqian were considered good. After all, they could have some free time to rest.
, but Chen Banliang suffered a lot. Not only did he sit up flat on his butt, he couldn't sleep for two days and two nights. Chen Banliang had already hit his upper eyelids and fell asleep.
"Which city is the next one?" Li Longqian asked with a frown.
"Galaxy City." Chen Banliang replied without thinking.
Li Longqian couldn't help but smile when he heard the name. The smile fell in Ling Shiqing's eyes. Ling Shiqing asked softly: "Do you know this city?"
"I know." Li Longqian nodded slightly.
"How do you know, I don't even know." Ling Shiqing, as the daughter of Ling Yuanzhou, is quite familiar with all the cities in Daliang, but it is only limited to the larger cities. If those cities have a small population,
Ling Shiqing didn't know about the city either.
Li Longqian turned to look at Ling Shiqing and whispered: "Galaxy City, the name sounds a bit interesting. When I was playing chess with an old man, I often heard him mention that that was his hometown.
.”
"Oh." Ling Shiqing nodded thoughtfully.
"Galaxy City is not a city, but later because there were a lot of national Go players, the emperor of Daliang changed the name of Galaxy Town to Xinghe City. There are not many people in Galaxy City, but all the Go masters in Daliang came from this place.
, there was a Du Lechi during the previous dynasty, and it was even more out of control during the Daliang Dynasty, and all the top ten national players from Daliang came here." Chen Shisan, who was on the side, seemed to be a little interested when he heard the two talking, and took the initiative to introduce.
"It is said that all three-year-old children in Galaxy City can play chess and can reach the top level at the age of five." Chen Banliang turned around and shouted.
Go in Daliang has reached its peak period. In order to distinguish the strength of chess players, the chess world is divided into ten levels and ten sections. Above the level is the section. The tenth level is the weakest and the section is the strongest.
Of course, Chen Banliang's previous statement that a five-year-old child can reach dan must be a joke. After all, reaching dan is not that easy. Some people play chess all their lives, but in the end they can't really reach the level of tenth dan. As for dan, then
They are all at the national level.
Li Longqian squinted his eyes and couldn't help but think in his mind that he didn't know what rank Jiang Chengcheng was. He had been playing chess for half his life and finally fell to the tenth level. But then he thought about it, what if Jiang Chengcheng was tenth level?
level, then wouldn’t he be worse than level ten?
"What are you thinking about?" Ling Shiqing looked at Li Longqian with wide eyes and asked.
"Nothing." Li Longqian shook his head helplessly.
Ling Shiqing rolled her eyes at Li Longqian, but she had long been accustomed to Li Longqian's mysterious way of asking questions without saying anything, so she didn't continue to ask questions, but she still cursed in her heart: "
I don’t know how much stuff I have in my heart, so I’m not afraid of tiring myself out?”
"It is said that the hometown of the chess master Du Lechi was in the Galaxy City in front of him. Brother Li, why don't we go and have a look? We can also raise horses. Although they have two horses, they have been running for two days in a row. If they keep running,
I will definitely be exhausted." Chen Banliang seemed to know that Li Longqian didn't care about himself as much as he felt about Ma, so he directly changed his approach and talked about Da Ma.
Li Longqian smiled when he heard this, nodded and said, "It's time to take a rest."
"Okay, we'll have a night's rest when we arrive at Galaxy City later." Chen Banliang shouted, waving the peach blossom branch in his hand with a very excited expression on his face.
Mostly because of the mention of Go, Li Longqian actually missed Old Man Jiang who played chess and studied every day, and also missed Jiang Youfu who would sarcastically mock him every time he saw him. I don't know.
I don't know how the father and daughter are doing now, and I don't know if that boy Mingleyou listened to me and went to Danhe City to see this interesting old man.
Although Old Man Jiang has no connection with Li Longqian, he has never preached or practiced anything, because Li Longqian has always felt that Jiang Chengcheng may not understand as much as he does, but the relationship between Li Longqian and Jiang Chengcheng is like
Like family members, especially after the old slave passed away, Jiang Chengcheng took care of Li Longqian. Although Li Longqian didn't say these things, he remembered them clearly in his heart. Even the proprietress of the inn before, Li Longqian
It’s also unforgettable.
Chen Shisan raised her head and looked at the thoughtful man. Her thoughts at this time were similar to Ling Shiqing's, and she couldn't help but be surprised that this man even knew about Galaxy City. If someone in the chess world knew about it, he would be surprised.
It's not a strange thing, but Li Longqian is not a member of the chess world, and he is not even a serious person in the world. But Li Longqian knows this city, and Chen Shisan can't help but feel in his heart.
I wonder, could this person also play chess?
"You want to ask me if I can play chess?" Li Longqian saw what Chen Shisan was thinking at a glance and asked with a smile.
"Yeah." Chen Shisan nodded.
"No." Li Longqian simply shook his head. Although he played a few games with Jiang Chengcheng, he mostly played for fun and never studied the secrets of the chessboard carefully. As for the only game he won, he didn't.
It's just that Li Longqian happened to read Du Lechi's book. It has nothing to do with whether he can play chess or not. If there is that chess book, even a three-year-old child can beat Jiang Chengcheng.
