Saying that, Qin Yuanshan smiled slightly, reached out and grabbed a black chess piece, and was about to place it.
Xu Shu waved his hand to block it, "It is true that there is no age in the Linqiu chess game. Why does the senior not mention black and white, so he will have the upper hand."
Qin Yuanshan said, "Young people should be cautious, otherwise how can they achieve great things?"
Xu Shu smiled and said, "Senior said it himself, there is no big or small gambling table, so how can you get the stomach for it? You still have to pick the pieces to be the first."
After saying that, Xu Shu grabbed a handful of chess pieces and asked, "Senior, do you want to guess odd or even?"
Qin Yuanshan waved his hand, "It's not that troublesome. It takes a lot of thinking to count."
As he said that, he pointed at the man in the bamboo hat and said, "Do you think Xiao Qi has five fingers on his left hand, or four?"
Xu Shu laughed hoarsely, "Senior, it's just a game of chess, why bother with making your blood boil.
Forget it, let the seniors go first. "
Xu Shu naturally remembered the routine of Duan Yuanqing and Master Huang Mei competing for the lead in the game.
Seeing Qin Yuanshan so determined to take the initiative, Xu Shu felt relieved.
Top chess players often have unique arrogance. Obviously, he did not find this in Qin Yuanshan.
What's more, a first move is not that important to Xu Shu.
In his previous life, his special family experience made him almost isolated from social interaction, and he hung out in various online chess rooms all day long.
He has an extraordinary talent, and he can master it as soon as he learns it. Although he cannot keep up with professional chess players, he is almost familiar with various formulas and layouts.
According to Xu Shu's judgment, the development of Go in this world is probably close to the level of the previous world around the Ming Dynasty.
Even though Qin Yuanshan is a top chess player, Xu Shu is confident with the wisdom of countless top chess players.
After Qin Yuanshan finished arranging his seats, he immediately placed his pieces. Xu Shu then placed his pieces. When the pieces came into contact with the chessboard, a cold feeling followed his fingers and penetrated directly into the spiritual platform.
Qin Yuanshan smiled slightly and continued to move. Xu Shu followed suit. This time, the icy coldness that penetrated the spiritual platform along his fingers was a little thicker.
The two of them were making moves like flying, and not even halfway through the chess game, Xu Shu finally understood why Qin Yuanshan dared to enter the gambling game despite his mediocre chess skills.
The chessboard was ordinary, and the chess pieces were ordinary, but the combination of the chessboard and the chess pieces formed an extremely weird formation. Xu Shu had just lost more than thirty pieces, and the ghost in his vagina felt trembling.
What's even more strange is that he didn't feel any extraordinary aura from Qin Yuanshan. It wasn't until Qin Yuanshan was playing chess that he captured the weak flow of source power through the green ring.
Now that he was in the game, there was no room for regret, so Xu Shu could only gather his energy and continue playing chess.
Half an hour passed in the blink of an eye. The black dragon on the chessboard was just one step away from being slaughtered. It was Qin Yuanshan's turn to make a move. He held the black stone in his hand and refused to put it down for a long time.
Opposite him, Xu Shu sat silently, with a calm face and a face as white as paper.
Even with the strength of his Yin Soul, he barely managed to survive. When he reached the back, his Yin Soul was completely numb, but his physical body seemed to be immersed in an ice cellar. The heat in his body was lost rapidly, and it was freezing from the inside out.
Another ten minutes passed. Qin Yuanshan put down the chess pieces and said, "I lost."
With that said, he took off the jade pendant and put it on the chessboard.
Xu Shu cupped his hands, said "accept", grabbed the jade pendant, jumped up, counted several points on the water, and floated ashore. Then, his figure disappeared into the lights.
Watching Xu Shu go away, the man in the hat said solemnly, "The master could have won. Even if he didn't use the black and white illusion and forced it to the end, he couldn't afford it."
Qin Yuanshan said, "So what if I win, for a white demon core? If that kid is greedy and wants to earn my cyan stone, I will let him taste the black and white illusion."
"But that is the jade pendant given by the late emperor."
"After all, it's just a jade pendant. I feel now that this kid has set his sights on my jade pendant before the gambling game even begins."
"He wants the jade pendant, probably because he wants to use it to see Nalan Shu. As far as I know, he is not a peaceful guy."
"It's only strange that Zhuge Zhang likes him if he can stay calm."
"But the day after tomorrow, oh no, the clock has already turned. Tomorrow is the day of engagement. It will be bad if Xu Shu stirs up trouble again."
"Without the jade pendant, he still has to go through troubles. Instead of going through troubles at the engagement banquet and embarrassing everyone, it would be better for him to go to Nalan's house to make troubles."
"That's right. Mr. Nalan's ability is useless even if Xu Shu goes there."
"I don't think so. Nalan Shu is an ambitious wolf cub with a hawk's eye on a wolf. Xu Shu has a fox-like face and is smarter than a monkey when it comes to his hair. They are a good opponent for a tortoise compared to a bastard."
The man in the hat was startled, "It seems that the master doesn't like Mr. Nalan?"
"I'm optimistic about Nalan Shu's future, but I'm not optimistic about him becoming my grandson-in-law. Besides, this grandson-in-law is something my stupid son can't do because of his wishful thinking."
The man in the hat was completely shocked, "What the master means is..."
"My stupid son doesn't understand his daughter very well."
"Could it be that Miss... Master, your engagement with the Nalan family is related to the reputation of my Qin family, and nothing can go wrong."
"It's time to go on a business trip, and no one can stop it. Now I want to see what kind of excitement Xu Shu and Nalan Shu will fight.
The guest in the hat said, "Master Nalan has entered the fifth level a long time ago. He has long been a famous young martial arts genius in the Eastern Capital. His current cultivation level is probably unfathomable. Xu Shu was only at the fourth level when he died. There is a huge gap in strength between the two sides. It’s huge, and there’s no suspense about the ending.”
"Is it?"
Qin Yuanshan gently stroked the chess pieces, "It turns out that I was thinking like you, Xiao Qi, do you know that I once played a game of chess with Su Yaoting, and he only played ninety-three pieces."
The man in a hat moved closer and took a closer look. He saw that there were only nine pieces left in the white chess box, which meant that the white chess piece had dropped 171 pieces.
He gasped, "Master's Yin-Yang chessboard, every piece shakes the Yin soul. How could Xu Shu, a physical warrior, come from such a terrifying Yin soul? This, this..."
"Young people are terrible. Why would such a guy have to fight over a game of chess?"
Qin Yuanshan waved his hand, put away the chessboard, and chanted leisurely, "Who can use black and white to enter the mysterious world? Thousands of reincarnations of life and death are in a radius. The Buddhists say that the eternal sand calamity should be the first to laugh all the year round."
It was the poem Xu Shu had written before.
His voice was distant, and only the vast waves responded to him.
"Hoo Chi, Ho Chi..."
Xu Shu leaned under a crooked-necked tree, his feet inserted into the rice fields that were about to be harvested.
His chest was rising and falling violently, and his whole body was in severe pain. He swallowed five Origin Beads in a row before he could barely overcome the feeling of death-like fatigue and pain.
He secretly cursed himself for looking down on the world's heroes even after he achieved a little success.
How could an old monster who could make a name for himself in the eastern capital dare to underestimate the enemy like this?
He still doesn't know what's so strange about the chess pieces and the chessboard, but he dares to swear to God that he will never be arrogant in front of Mr. Qin again.
He knew in his heart that if his ghost had not come from another time and space and experienced strange time and space extraction, it would have been impossible to persist until the end of the shogi game.
