Lan Ke Qi Yuan Chapter 146: Getting together

However, the more chess pieces in hand, the better. It would be great if Du Heng could succeed, but Ji Yuan had no intention of finding the other eight.

You can't force yourself to become a chess player. Those who can become a chess player have their own special features. To put it bluntly, it's all about fate. The chivalrous agreement between Lu Shanjun and Jiu Shaoxia was not one of them.

"Hey, hey...no regrets in making a move!"

"No, I was distracted just now, that step doesn't count, it doesn't count!"

The two old men on the side began to argue, which also brought Ji Yuan's thoughts back, and the two old men started again.

It is normal for one to regret his chess and the other not to, but Ji Yuan especially likes to watch the two old men play chess in the past two days. This is because these two old men are indeed chess masters. Looking at the whole chess hall, they have no opponent. It's just hard to say about this chess piece.

Once the time comes when one party wants to regret the move and the other does not, the two people will also have an interesting solution.

"Okay, okay, I won't argue with you, just follow the old rules!"

"Come here!"

As a result, the two of them stopped arguing and continued to deal with the current situation.

For masters, it may take a long time to make the next move. Sometimes they can play several games in a day. The same is true now. It took more than half an hour for the two of them to finish the game. .

The old man who wanted to regret his move kept struggling to his death, while the one who refused to regret did not let go at all. At the end of the game, it seemed to outsiders that the outcome was already decided, but the two of them were in a state of complacency and had to play to the end.

Ji Yuan looked around and saw that more and more people were coming to watch chess, because everyone knew that an interesting scene was about to take place.

"Hahahaha...I still win. How can I make you regret your move?"

"Hmph, review, review, review!"

The two old men bickered, and after collecting the chess pieces, they began to review the game on the chess board. They actually returned to the point where they argued about regrets, but this time they were in a state of regret.

"Look, if I hadn't been distracted just now and made the wrong move, you would be dead!"

"Fart! Let's wait and see!"

The two old men started playing chess according to this other situation. Now the chess situation started to go in a completely different direction. The other old man was very arrogant, and the other was cautious. The change of emotions was very interesting. .

For people watching chess, the changes in the two possibilities are also exciting and can even arouse the emotions of the people watching chess.

For people who don’t like Go, this may be boring. After all, sometimes it’s boring to watch the opponent’s moves for a long time, but everyone here likes Go, and the fighting on the chessboard is a silent war. The art of talking with hands is also exciting.

In Ji Yuan's eyes, the chessboard played by the two old men was different. From the perspective of others, the chessboard had nineteen vertical and horizontal lines, so the black and white pieces competed for more than three hundred points, but this was not the case in his eyes.

The chessboard coincides with the artistic conception all the time. The range in which the black and white pieces can spread is infinite. What they are fighting for is no longer the small piece of energy. When the two pieces compete against the chessboard itself, the changes in yin and yang are also involved. It turns out that the process of the black and white fight between the two old men also evolved into a process of mutual development in Ji Yuan's eyes.

So what Ji Yuan experiences is the mystery of two realms, one is regular Go and the other is artistic conception. The excitement of the experience is naturally more than one point more exciting than others.

In the end, it was the other old man who won. Naturally, the two old men had some bickering, and the chess enthusiasts nearby also made comments.

"If it doesn't rain, it won't rain. You have to go home early on New Year's Eve."

"Yes, I haven't bought Spring Festival couplets yet!" "Look for those scholars who are rushing to take the exam to write them, pick a word!"

"Yes, yes!"

Some people in the chess hall were chatting and leaving.

Ji Yuan, who had recovered from the previous chess game, looked around the chess hall. Many people had left without knowing it, and he had only watched a few chess games. However, it was already afternoon, and the chess hall clerk was clearing away the chess board. Waiting for things, there are also guys who are putting up couplets and hanging red lights in the chess hall.

"Mr. Ji, would you like to have a chat with me?"

The innkeeper of the chess hall is a man wearing a square crown, and he comes over to offer a suggestion to the friendly Chong Jiyuan.

You know what you do. Although the chess shop owner has never seen Mr. Ji playing chess, he thinks he is definitely a master of chess.

Because of its extraordinary popularity, it is inevitable that the shopkeeper will pay more attention to it. Inadvertently watching the game together several times, I saw the subtle changes in the gentleman's expression when watching chess. There is always a feeling that he understands the situation better than the two people playing against him. It's just that It's unclear how good this gentleman's chess skills are. Anyway, no one in the chess hall seemed to make him interested in playing, so only two old men could make him look at him more.

"No, no, if you're not good at playing chess, you won't show off. I'm thirty, doesn't the shopkeeper plan to make samples early?"

After Ji Yuan declined politely, he politely asked casually. This kind of chess hall can only be opened by really elegant people, because it is really not profitable. The shopkeeper is also a chess lover, even if he has other businesses, he still plays chess. I stayed the longest in the chess hall. Sometimes when I met someone who was good at chess, they would give me tea, water and melon seeds, and I would record the chess records without taking any money.

The shopkeeper heard this and looked at the seven or eight places in the chess hall where chess was still being played.

"Leave it to the store clerk to take care of me. I have to wait for others to finish playing chess. I want to go to Wenqu Street to buy some New Year posters."

"Ji happens to know that there is a Gongshi who is good at calligraphy and also sets up a stall on the street. The shopkeepers can go and have a look together!"

Ji Yuan’s suggestion was exactly what the shopkeeper wanted, and he had long wanted to get to know Mr. Ji well, so they hit it off and headed to Wenqu Street together.

In fact, Wenqu Street was originally a name spoken by ordinary people in the market, but later it gradually became mainstream, because many scholars rushing to take exams would set up stalls here to earn some money.

Even if the imperial examination is held every three years, there will still be scholars living in Gyeonggi Prefecture, and Wenqu Street will become more and more prosperous.

This is not only a place to sell calligraphy, but also a good place to appreciate the literary talents of various tributes. Who dares to set up a stall without two brushes?

Danqing couplets and calligraphy are all about the skill of the scholar, so even if the reference Gongshi does not set up a stall, he will definitely visit Wenqu Street to understand the strength of his opponents. Even some officials from the imperial examination system will occasionally come here. here.

Although Yin Zhaoxian and Shi Yusheng were not short of money for the time being, they also came out to set up stalls this time. However, Shi Yusheng's calligraphy was only average, so they just went shopping, while Yin Zhaoxian set up a writing stall.

The street is not wide, and there are teahouses, inns and other high-rise buildings around it, so there is no cold wind on the street. When Ji Yuan and the manager Lu of the chess hall passed by, they happened to see several people surrounding Yin Zhaoxian’s stall. They had played chess before. The two old men were also there.

"Shopkeeper Lu, the person who sets up the stall there is the tribute scholar Ji mentioned. He is from Jizhou Jieyuan. He has great literary talent. The key is..."

Ji Yuan smiled when he said this.

"I am also from Jizhou, and I am an old acquaintance with Yin Jieyuan. I know that his body is full of great righteousness. If you ask for Spring Festival couplets from him, you will have a unique and pure air, which can cleanse the filthy atmosphere in your home."

"Is there such a thing? Then Lu must ask him to write more couplets."

Shopkeeper Lu joked and went with Ji Yuan.

After getting closer, in order not to affect Master Yin, Ji Yuan cast a spell and stood on the outside, while Shopkeeper Lu came closer to take a look.

"What a good calligraphy!" "Not bad, not bad, this word is really good!"

“A hundred birds chirping in spring brings joy to the world as the year changes, and dragons present their auspicious signs to welcome the renewal of the century... seconds!”

"Who is this scholar?" "Anyway, he is awesome!"

"Sir, write one for me too, the price is not an issue!"

Yin Zhao first put away his pen and then blew on the couplet he had just written. He rubbed his sore wrist. Unknowingly, so many people had gathered around him, which also shocked him.

"Please wait a moment, come one by one, come one by one!"

"It's my turn. It's my turn. Sir, please write me a blessing in big characters."

"Okay!"

Yin Zhaoxian changed to a large brush and went to Shuyuan www.zhaoshuyuan.com to write a big "福" on a piece of square red paper facing the corners. The handwriting was tactful but powerful, and writing big characters showed even more calligraphy. Basic skills.

"Oh, what a good word!" "Thank you sir!"

Yin Zhaoxian smiled, remembering some of the chats with Ji Yuan, and gave the old man a word of advice.

"When the old man goes back to paste the words, he can paste the word "福" upside down."

"Post it backwards?" "Oh, isn't that the word 'luck arrives'?"

Many of the crowd were smart people. They immediately thought of the meaning, and others immediately praised it.

When Mr. Yin Zhao was in good business, Ji Yuan met another friend. He saw Lao Long in rich clothes walking from the other end of Wenqu Street. He started to raise his hand to Ji Yuan from a distance, and A soft voice came.

"I knew that Mr. Chunwei Qianji must still be in Gyeonggi Prefecture. If I find Yin Zhaoxian, I can find you!"

Ji Yuan also smiled. This old dragon, who was not staying with his family in Tongtian River on New Year's Eve, came to see him. What a big deal.

Then Ji Yuan looked at the other side, and it happened that the "Third Young Master" also seemed to be looking for Yin Zhaoxian. Under the guidance of a servant, he went straight to Master Yin's stall.

Although the two parties were not related, Ji Yuan still complained in his heart.
