The two walked to the bamboo house and knocked on the door. They heard a burst of hurried footsteps coming from inside the door. It was not Ruyu's. The child always walked steadily and would never make such footsteps. Xu Huaigu was confused when he saw the door being pulled inward, revealing a crack in the door. A little girl poked her head inside the door, and an eccentric face appeared in front of the two of them.
When Xu Huaigu saw it, it turned out to be Chen Qi, and he figured it out.
When the little girl saw Xu Huaigu and Yu Qin, she immediately raised her eyebrows, her eyebrows curved like spring water, and she said with a smile: "Mr. Xu, Sister Yu, you are back!"
When Yu Qin saw this little girl, she was extremely happy. Her eyes narrowed into slits with a smile. She bowed down and greeted her: "Long time no see. Chen Qi, why are you here?"
"Ruyu and I are playing chess inside!"
Xu Huaigu smiled and said: "Playing chess? I haven't taught him how to play chess yet, but he already knows it?"
"Sir, you didn't teach me, but I did!" Chen Qi frowned and said with a grin, "Logically speaking, he should call me sir!"
Inside, Ruyu heard the noise outside and walked out quickly. When she saw it was Xu Huaigu, she said, "Sir is back."
Xu Huaigu nodded and walked inside. I saw a chess game on the table in the room. At a glance, I saw more white and less black, and the situation was worrying.
Chen Qisan walked into the room in two steps and sat down in front of his white son. He looked at Ruyu triumphantly, waved to him and said with a smile: "Come here quickly and finish the game. If you lose, just You have to call me sir!"
Ruyu frowned and said, "But Sister Liu came here yesterday and said that when Mr. comes back, he must tell her immediately."
"Oh, there's no rush. Let's finish this game first. After that, we'll go find her."
Ruyu looked nervous and glanced at Xu Huaigu quietly. Xu Huaigu smiled and nodded, indicating that he was not in a hurry and asked him to sit down. He then sat back on the chair and looked at the chessboard, his brows furrowed deeply and his face full of sadness.
Xu Huaigu and Yu Qin watched the two children playing chess with great interest. They saw that each of them had lost more than a dozen pieces. The formation on Ruyu's side became more and more scattered, like weeds in late autumn, miserable. Miserable and helpless. Looking at the little girl Chen Qi, Bai Zi was killing people with great force. She was also very proud, with a smile on her face; Ruyu was holding a black Zi in her hand, her brows were furrowed, she thought about it, but felt it was inappropriate, so she thought about it again. On the other hand, I still feel bad and can't use it.
Xu Huaigu took a closer look at the chessboard and saw the clues. Chen Qi obviously memorized the formulas and was very particular about his moves. Ruyu was a beginner, so who was her opponent? It is a bit unreasonable to use fixed formulas for someone who has just learned Go.
So Xu Huaigu smiled and pointed at a place on the chessboard. Ruyu understood and quickly placed the piece there.
Chen Qichu didn't take it seriously at first, and still followed his own rules. However, under Xu Huaigu's guidance, after more than ten years, the little girl felt that something was not quite right, and her expression became more serious.
This time it was the little girl staring at the chessboard with a sad face, while Ruyu was waiting for work. Anyway, he would play whatever Xu Huaigu asked him to play. Chen Qi relied on his skills to be far superior to Ruyu, so he made several risky moves. At this moment, Xu Huaigu saw through them one by one, and the situation suddenly took a turn for the worse. The little girl complained and shouted in a hurry: "Sir, everyone said Watch the chess game without saying a word, no one can teach others like you!"
But Xu Huaigu smiled brightly and said: "You came up with the formula first. I, a student, only just understand how to play Go, but you can play it. You can't blame me for being unjust."
Chen Qi knew he was no match for him, so he had no choice but to throw away his hand and cheered: "I just want to hear him call me sir."
Xu Huaigu and Yu Qin both smiled and didn't take it to heart.
Ruyu asked seriously: "Sir, what is the formula?"
Before Xu Huaigu opened his mouth, Chen Qi answered first: "The fixed formulas are just a few fixed ways to play chess. Just memorize the fixed formulas and play according to the fixed formulas. Most of them will not make mistakes. If you encounter a situation where you are not very good at chess, , and if you haven’t seen this kind of setup before, it’s even better. If you are stable in the early stage and use your strength in the mid-term, you can easily win.”
Xu Huaigu nodded and said with a smile: "That's more or less the truth."
Ruyu was suddenly enlightened and said: "So there is such a thing. Is there a book about fixed styles? I want to read it too."
Chen Qi said casually: "There are many chess records in the town at the foot of the mountain. Just buy a few when you pass by some time."
Ruyu nodded and kept this in mind.
Xu Huaigu asked Chen Qidao: "Did Liu Waner come to see me yesterday?"
"Yes, I came at night, and I said you haven't come back yet." Chen Qi said, "I think it's not an urgent matter, otherwise she should have sent you a message long ago."
Xu Huaigu nodded slightly, and Chen Qi sighed: "I still want to get addicted to chess. It seems that I won't win today."
Yu Qin smiled and said: "How can you enjoy bullying Ruyu, a newcomer? I think our chess skills are about the same, so why don't we talk about a game?"
Xu Huaigu said in surprise: "You know how to play chess?"
"I learned some in Fuyao Sect, and sometimes I play with my sisters."
Chen Qi said with some disappointment: "I want to play too, but I have to go find Sister Liu. She asked me to tell her when I came back from meeting Mr. Xu yesterday."
Yu Qin also felt a little regretful, and Ruyu immediately said: "You can play chess here, I will go."
The little girl's expression changed faster than flipping through a book. She immediately became clear and smiled, "Really? That's great!"
After not seeing each other for a few days, Xu Huaigu learned to be considerate of others, and Xu Huaigu smiled secretly in his heart.
Ruyu nodded and turned around to go out. Xu Huaigu said, "I'll go with you too."
"yes."
So Ruyu and Xu Huaigu went out, while Yu Qin and Chen Qi were playing chess in the bamboo building. The two of them held their pieces and moved slowly, but their minds were not on the chess game, but on things other than the chess game.
When he couldn't make it past twenty years, Chen Qi asked tentatively: "Sister Yu, let me ask you, where did you come from? Where are you going?"
Yu Qin was also a little uneasy. After listening to Chen Qi's question, he calmly replied casually: "I am a disciple of the Fuyao Sect. Your Mr. Xu is a wild cultivator who has traveled abroad for more than ten years. Years ago, we still don’t have a place to live. Both of us are from the Dayu Kingdom. We are staying in the Qingfeng Valley now because you thank the Valley Master for letting us stay for some time. When your sect moves to the Central Plains, we should go north. Fuyao Sect."
Chen Qi tilted his head, nodded slowly, and said casually, "What about Ruyu, do you want to go with you too?"
Yu Qin nodded.
"Alas, now that we are planning to move the clan, we still don't know what the situation will be like after we move there." Chen Qi frowned, "I have grown up here since I was a child, and I am quite reluctant to part with it."
Yu Qin smiled slightly and advised: "It will definitely be good. If you think about it, at least your brothers and sisters from the disciples will go with you, and there will be many people to play with you."
Chen Qi was still a little worried, pouting her mouth and sighing.
Yu Qin found it funny and asked, "I said, you won't be living in our bamboo house these days, right?"
The little girl herself felt a little embarrassed, and said with a smile: "My home is too far away from here. I am too lazy to go home at night, so I just sleep here. But that guy doesn't seem to want to sleep at night. He only sits on the first floor. Stay and never come up."
"Ruyu sleeps lightly. He is used to it. Just let him be."
Chen Qi seemed to have thought of something, and suddenly he frowned, gritted his teeth, and said with some resentment: "Oh, talking about it makes me a little angry. Sister, tell me, that guy looks so smart, why is he so angry in his heart?" Like wood?"
Yu Qin smiled and said: "Why is Ruyu just wood?"
"He never smiles!" Chen Qi frowned, "It's really strange. Sometimes I think he is in a good mood, but why does he never smile?"
"Why do you want him to laugh?"
"You look good when you smile!" The little girl said confidently, "It looks best if you smile often like my sister."
Yu Qin burst into laughter after being praised and asked: "Why are you so happy to play with him? If you think he is a fool and can't laugh, you might as well play with others."
"Because he is good-looking!" Chen Qi did not shy away and said with a smile, "His eyes are beautiful. I have never seen such beautiful eyes."
"Then when we leave, will you be reluctant to leave him?"
"Hmm... maybe a little bit. But at most it's just as reluctant to leave the mountains and rivers here, no more."
The little girl was anxious to clear it up, but Yu Qin smiled and said: "Really, there won't be more?"
Chen Qi shook his head like a rattle and said, "No, not much more."
Yu Qin glanced at her meaningfully, which made Chen Qi feel a little panicked and her face felt a little hot. Fortunately, Yu Qin did not pursue the question further. She changed the subject and asked: "When I was in retreat, did your sister Liu often come to see him?"
"Ruyu?"
"Xu Huaigu."
"Oh." Chen Qi buried his head in thought, "I must have come here a few times, but it seems to be related to some things in the sect. There have been fewer visits recently, just once yesterday."
Yu Qin nodded slightly and his thoughts went to other places. Chen Qi saw her lost in thought, suddenly smiled slyly and said, "Sister, are you jealous of Sister Liu?"
Yu Qin's face immediately turned red. She glared at her and said angrily, "Little girl, don't talk nonsense."
Chen Qi smiled even more happily and said, "Definitely. But let me tell you, if I were Mr. Xu, I would definitely like my sister more."
Yu Qin gave her a strange look and said, "In front of your sister Liu, wouldn't you just say you like her more?"
Chen Qi hurriedly explained: "No, no!"
"Why is that?"
"Because my sister is more beautiful! So if I were him, I would definitely like my sister more."
Yu Qin suddenly realized, smiled and ignored her. Thinking about it, the reason why she likes Ruyu so much is because Ruyu is beautiful, right?
The joy of young people is inevitably related to the word good-looking. It should be noted that the reason why she and Xu Huaigu got to this point was through companionship.
Use sex to entertain people, sex will relax and love will fade away, and you will eventually fall into the inferior position. But the little girl is still young, and now that she feels like this, it is the right time, and she will slowly understand that other things are more important.
Yu Qin didn't say anything, and the two continued to chat word by word, walking slowly.
Outside the chess game, within the chess game.
