Chapter 189: The Game

Under the governance of Yan Xin, Gohara County has gradually become more and more vigorous.

The people were sweating like rain, and their faces were full of simple smiles, and Lu Bu saw it in his eyes, and he was really happy for them in his heart.

Now the most leisurely in the entire county town are Lu Bu and Xi Ce.

With Yan Xin, the new county keeper, and Cui Xu and a group of Yan family diners to assist, there is basically no big problem.

As for the affairs of the army, Lu Bu had long been thrown to Gao Shun and became the shopkeeper himself.

Under Gao Shun's strict supervision and management, the newly recruited soldiers were all obedient and fearful.

In Gao Shun's words, the lord is entrusted with a heavy responsibility, and Shun does not dare to be lazy.

As a result, these newly enlisted men from the state can be said to have suffered enough.

Compared with the recruits who were screaming for a long time, Lu Bu lived a fairy-like life almost every day.

Not only can you sleep with your beautiful daughter-in-law in your arms every night, but you can also taste a variety of delicious snacks and desserts.

I have to say that Miss Yan's pastry making skills are superb.

In his spare time, Lu Bu basically guarded his pregnant daughter-in-law, looking forward to it, muttering when this little guy would be willing to come into the world, almost wanting to wear it.

During this period, the drama became a particularly headache for Lu Bu.

Since he had a meal at Lu Bu's house, Xice has been running to Lu Bu almost every once in a while, changing his ways to eat and drink, play the autumn wind, and rub fruits.

No, while talking, this guy is here again.

Wrapped up and down like a bear, he walked up and down to Lu Bu in three or two steps, said hello to Lu Bu, and then picked up a piece of dough cake with extremely skillful skills, opened his mouth and put it in his mouth.

An expression of pleasure soon appeared on his face.

"Sir, this is the fifth day in a row that you have come to my house." Lu Bu had a sad face, not that he was reluctant to sacrifice the incense cakes that had sacrificed to the Five Organs Temple.

It's just that the joke comes every day, and Wei Niang will inevitably have to go into the stove room twice.

Yan Wei is pregnant now, and Lu Bu, as her husband, is always worried that she will be tired.

Xi Ce didn't remember how many days he came, he never had much of a concept of time, and when he saw Lu Bu sitting at the door idle, he said with a smile: "General, do you want to talk about two handfuls?" ”

Hand talk?

Lu Bu read suspiciously, he had stayed in the army all the year round, and he was obviously very unfamiliar with this rather interesting word.

"It's a game of chess." Xi Ce said bluntly.

Lu Bu shook his head, and said truthfully: "No." ”

"No, I'll teach you." The smile on Xi Ce's face was like a fox who had enough to cheat meat to eat.

As he spoke, Xi Ce took out a boxy parchment roll from his bosom and spread it on the stone bench in front of the door.

Lu Bu looked over and saw that many straight lines were drawn horizontally and vertically on the parchment scroll.

I silently counted in my heart, and the horizontal and vertical were equal, and there were seventeen paths.

Later, Xi Ce put two round bowls and wooden boxes, which were filled with black and white chess pieces.

"Sir, you're all going to make up for this these days?" Lu Bu asked with a smile, picked up a black chess piece, and flipped it in his hand.

"What else can I do?"

Xi Ce's face was sad, and his stomach was full of melancholy, "In addition to being bored or boring here, I don't like you to have a daughter-in-law to guard and a doll to look forward to; is not like Cao Xinghu and them, they like to let the horses in the field and hunt at a gallop. ”

Hearing that the drama was so miserable, Lu Bu also felt a little uncomfortable, so he asked him for advice on how to do it.

"The chessboard of the game is seventeen vertical and horizontal, two hundred and eighty-nine in total, and one hundred and fifty white and black chess pieces in the box......"

Xice briefly gave a general explanation, and taught the rules and methods to Lu Bu one by one.

It's as simple as that?

After a preliminary understanding, Lu Bu inevitably felt a little contempt in his heart, according to what Xi Ce said, he could eat children if he surrounded it, and it must be a big chance to win first.

The drama is not broken, he is white, and Lu Bu is black first.

The first set of battles was quickly contested.

Lu Bu is like flying, and he doesn't think twice about it.

Soon, the two played more than 30 moves, and with the call of the joke, the black pieces on the chessboard were uprooted.

The outcome after that is obvious.

"Come again, come again!"

Lu Bu is a character who does not admit defeat, and after cleaning up the defeat, he shouts for 'revenge'.

Seeing Lu Bu's acute appearance, Xi Ce couldn't help laughing, as if he remembered the scene when he was abused by Xun Wenruo, who had the style of a countryman, and was so powerless that he couldn't fight back.

"General, you regard this chessboard as the Xianbei territory, and the overlapping lines of these lines are the tribes of various passes, and the chess pieces in your hands are the soldiers of the three armies under your command."

He wanted to compare this chessboard to the world of the Han family, but after thinking about it, he changed it to Xianbei.

Listening to Xi Ce's words, it seems to be really interesting.

In the second game, Lu Bu still took the lead and landed Tianyuan, which is the point in the middle of the chessboard.

"Hey, general, your hand really shocked me." Xi Ce was slightly stunned, there is a young man in a green shirt and a white fox face in Yingchuan, and he also likes to drop Tianyuan first-handed.

Although, never won, but the courage is commendable.

Lu Bu didn't think about it that much, in his eyes, it was true that this place was surrounded by enemies on all sides, but it was also an important stronghold connecting all places.

He sharpened his knife and let out a bold statement: "Sir, even if you come to surround me, see how you can fight a bloody way." ”

However, the gap in strength gave Lu Bu a merciless slap.

The path of expansion from the middle to the outside that he had set in his mind had not gone far before Bai Zi had already blocked the exit. The chess pieces in his hand did not have a force bonus, and Lu Bu could not break through several times, and finally was trapped in the center.

Since you can't kill it, you can simply bring in reinforcements from the outside corner to come to the rescue.

The trick that easily saw through Lu Bu's mind deliberately released an open space, and when this reinforcement entered, he immediately pounced on both sides and ate them all.

Watching the drama mention the sunspots one by one, Lu Bu was very aggrieved in his heart.

The subsequent situation can almost be described as devastating, under the fierce offensive of the play, the sunspots on the chessboard were slaughtered and had no power to fight back.

This game ended with Lu Bu's defeat.

Come again and again!

The two fought from morning to dusk.

Lu Bu didn't remember how many games of chess he played with Xice that day, he only remembered that the melons and fruits brought out by Wei Niang were all in Xice's belly.

And, from start to finish, he didn't win a single game.

"Not coming, not coming!"

Lu Bu threw the sunspot in his hand, made a tiger face, lost for a day, and no matter how good his temper and patience were, he was polished.

This small chessboard seems easy, but in fact it is not simple, and there are great mysteries hidden in every move.

He understands a little, and he doesn't seem to understand it.

But there is one thing that Lu Bu is particularly clear. It's time to find a mother-in-law for Xi Ce, and it's a more fierce kind, so that he won't be bored all day long and wander around.

Seeing that Lu Bu was in a hurry, Xi Ce slowly packed up the chess pieces and chessboard, and no longer played against Lu Bu.

A person can show anger after losing twenty or thirty games in a row.

This kind of heart is already rare.

After packing up the chessboard, Xi Ce got up and said goodbye and left, and sang a cappella full of charm in his mouth: "The three-foot game is a battle field; Chen Jushi was a soldier, and the two enemies were equal. ”

When he reached the door, the young man wrapped in a thick coat suddenly sang: "General, look away!" ”
