Fang Yun returned the courtesy and said: "Since we are studying in the academy together, it is a friendship between classmates. Just call Fang Yun."

"Don't dare..." Everyone waved their hands.

"Since I have met Lord Wenhou, I will take my leave. I have also received an invitation from the Double Ninth Festival Cultural Festival. On the ninth day of the Lunar New Year, Changdongyun, Dongyun Prefecture, is waiting for Wenhou's masterpiece." He just said that he was waiting for Fang Yun to be his benefactor. After Chang Dongyun finished speaking, he handed over and left.

Seeing this, everyone else left one after another. They all understood that Fang Yun could be humble, but they could not really regard Fang Yun as an ordinary classmate. Even several people from wealthy families did not come forward to assassinate Fang Yun. The identities and status of both parties There's so much difference.

When everyone dispersed, Fang Yun and Zhao Hongzhuang entered the first house, followed by two maids.

After cleaning up last night and this morning, the first dormitory has changed its appearance, making it look more friendly and family-like, not just a student dormitory.

Yang Yuhuan was playing the piano in the room. The little fox jumped out and jumped into Fang Yun's arms. Then he stared at Zhao Hongzhuang's hand and found that there was nothing delicious in her hand. He snorted and ignored Zhao Hongzhuang.

Zhao Hongzhuang smiled helplessly and said, "I will send someone to the palace to get some snacks."

Nunu immediately jumped up to Zhao Hongzhuang's shoulder, rubbed her face, and screamed a few times before returning to Fang Yun's arms.

Fang Yun and Zhao Hongzhuang entered Yang Yuhuan's room and chatted about the previous events. Finally, they went to Fang Yun's study.

"Let's start teaching Go first." Zhao Hongzhuang said, looking around the room.

Fang Yun took out a Jinshi Wenbao chess table from Yin Jiangbei. This chess table was larger than an ordinary chess board, with a length and width of nearly two feet. This was obtained at the Holy Ruins and was very rare, so Fang Yun kept it with him.

Zhao Hongzhuang glanced at Fang Yun's Yin Jiangbei, with a look of envy flashing in her eyes, and then happily took the silver-white and purple chessboard and observed it carefully. Said: "This is Qianmo Tianxingqi, a treasure from Shoutanzhai. The purple pattern on the silver body should be made from the roots of the demon lord of the silver mulberry tree."

As she said that, she opened the small drawer under the chessboard table, took out the chess jar in surprise, opened it gently, and said: "I didn't expect that the chess jar was made of old withered vines. These white pieces are even rarer. They are all from chess pattern shells." . The chess pattern shell should be matched with the black moon stone. Isn’t it the black moon stone?”

Fang Yun took out his chess jar and opened the lid, revealing shiny black moonstone chess pieces.

"Good stuff! Take me into the chess realm quickly and see what kind of chess realm it is." Zhao Hongzhuang said.

Fang Yun smiled and took out a bamboo mat and spread it on the ground. Then he and Zhao Hongzhuang sat on both sides of the chess table.

I saw that the chessboard began to grow larger and larger, and finally it was a hundred feet in diameter. Fang Yun and Zhao Hongzhuang are like small chess pieces on a chessboard.

Then, the chessboard began to shrink, but in the process of shrinking, changes appeared in all directions. The sky is clear with white clouds, surrounded by mountains and green grass on the ground. There is a small waterfall falling into the pool on the east side, a bamboo forest on the west side, and a wooden house on the north side. On the south side, there are cranes and sika deer, like a fairyland.

When the chessboard finally shrank to its normal size, the surroundings had completely transformed into a beautiful view of the valley, and the two of them were sitting on the grass.

"It looks good!" Zhao Hongzhuang said happily.

Suddenly, the earth shook, and there were rumbling sounds everywhere. The mountains collapsed, the ground rose, magma flowed everywhere, and finally turned into a huge volcano.

The two of them were sitting on a rock in the center of the crater, and the rock was surrounded by bubbling magma. From time to time, loud rumbling noises could be heard in their ears, which was the sound of a volcano erupting in the distance.

Zhao Hong said: "It turns out to be Shuangjing Wenbaoqi, which is amazing!"

Fang Yun waved his hand, and the surroundings turned back to the beautiful scenery of the valley. Zhao Hongzhuang could not feel it, but as the master of the chessboard, he knew that the beautiful scenery of the valley seemed quiet, but in fact, like the mouth of the flame, it would form a powerful lethality once activated.

However, Fang Yun's chess skills at the moment were not at one level, and he could not exert the full power of Wenbao chess, so he could only use the basic chess level.

"Let's talk about it, please." Fang Yun smiled.

Different from later generations of Go, in ancient Go, the white stone moved first and the black stone came second. Fang Yun happened to have the black stone on his side and was too lazy to guess the pieces like in official Go, so he let Zhao Hongzhuang go first.

"Then try your chess skills." Zhao Hongzhuang said.

Fang Yun said: "I heard that your chess skills are close to the second level. I am not even at the first level. I hope you will show mercy."

"How many times will I give you?" Zhao Hongzhuang said with a smile.

"Still won't give in. If you lose, how will you teach me in the future?"

Zhao Hongzhuang smiled and said: "That's good. I have to win this first round no matter what, otherwise I will have no shame in teaching you."

"Then I'll do my best to make it harder for you to win." Fang Yun said.

Zhao Hongzhuang smiled slightly.

Fang Yun doesn't play many games, but he has long read and memorized a large number of chess records from Qishu Tiandi, including not only chess records from later countries, but also chess records from Shengyuan Continent.

The Go game of later generations has a murderous spirit, and winning is the kingly rule. However, the Go game of Shengyuan Continent needs to cooperate with the role of Wenbao, and the first priority is siege, so it lacks murderous spirit but is more resilient.

Fang Yun's heart moved, and he was ready to try the "Big Incline", one of the most difficult Go formulas in later generations. Although he would lose no matter what, he couldn't lose randomly.

Zhao Hongzhuang held the white piece and placed it on the corner star. Then the two of them each placed two chess pieces on the four corner stars. This is the famous seat system. After that, Zhao Hongzhuang officially placed the stone.

Fang Yun took a look and saw that Zhao Hongzhuang's moves were quite satisfactory. He chose the flying hang opening commonly used in Shengyuan Continent. Fang Yun did not make the moves according to the response method, but used a large diagonal stance to deal with it.

The large inclined stance is commonly known as the large inclined stance. It is extremely complex. The average beginner can only master a few ways to perform the large inclined stance. However, Fang Yun has long since remembered it. All the changes of the large inclined stance are imprinted in his mind and he knows it by heart.

Soon, Fang Yun discovered that Zhao Hongzhuang was actually playing coaching chess. His intention was not to win, but to teach himself how to make moves. This is a common way for masters to teach novices. Novices always look forward to having a master guide them in chess. Beginners often have to pay for a master to guide them in chess.

Fang Yun smiled slightly. Although he didn't play chess often, Zhao Hongzhuang still underestimated himself, so he silently used a large diagonal layout.

Go is generally divided into three stages, from the initial "layout" to the mid-game "middle game" and finally to the "official". The so-called "end" is the official, which originally means that Go is about to end.

At first, Zhao Hongzhuang put down her makeup very quickly, but before the middle of the game, she suddenly raised her head. He looked at Fang Yun in surprise, with a hint of anger, and said, "You lied to me!"

"What?" Fang Yun looked at Zhao Hongzhuang doubtfully.

"Your layout is so exquisite, I didn't even notice it at first! It wasn't until I did some careful calculation that I realized that if nothing else happened, you would have slaughtered all my white sons! Tell me, have you Qindao already done this? Passed the second level?" Zhao Hongzhuang's eyes were a little red, but she didn't expect Fang Yun to lie to herself.

Fang Yun was stunned and couldn't help laughing: "Why are you crying?"

"I... I trust you so much, and you still play tricks on me!" Zhao Hongzhuang pursed her lips. Unhappily, she rarely calls Fang Lun her own palace.

Fang Yun said with a smile: "Think carefully and look at my layout again to see if there are any problems. If it doesn't work, I will review it with you and try it again."

"Oh?" Zhao Hongzhuang glanced at Fang Yun in confusion, then stared at the Go game and began to recall.

A full quarter of an hour passed. Zhao Hongzhuang suddenly realized and said: "That's it! You must have obtained a great chess record, learned a special formula, and memorized it. That's why I think your chess skills are exquisite. But thinking about it carefully, no matter how you hold the pieces, The postures and the placement process are all the same as those of a novice, and your use of the postures is a bit immature, so I didn't expect you to be able to use such exquisite postures at first."

"Isn't it 'my palace' anymore? Let's continue being 'other people'." Fang Yun said with a smile.

Zhao Hongzhuang's face turned red and she said: "Don't tease me! After all, I am also the eldest princess of Jingguo. The aunt of the young king! Keep going! I have lost a lot of plans, but until the end, who will win may not be known! Don't be complacent. Too early!”

"I'll be satisfied if the layout can give me an advantage! However, if you lose accidentally, don't cry."

"Continue!" Zhao Hongzhuang was furious. She didn't expect that she was almost defeated by this person who was younger than herself and had worse chess skills. Fortunately, she found out before the middle game.

The two sides continued to play Go. In the early stages of the middle game, Fang Yun still had an advantage. However, as the game progressed, Zhao Hongzhuang's chess prowess became apparent, and Fang Yun's weakness of inexperience also began to be exposed.

Anyone else would have been killed by Zhao Hongzhuang very quickly, but Fang Yun persisted after many infusions of talent, even if he didn't use his talent, and his brain was not comparable to Zhao Hongzhuang's.

Until the end of the game, Fang Yun spent more and more time thinking, and his moves became slower and slower, until he finally woke up when he accidentally used his talent.

Fang Yunqizi smiled and said: "You have no talent, but you forced me to use my talent. I lost."

However, Zhao Hongzhuang stretched out her hand to wipe the cold sweat from her forehead, looked at Fang Yun with bright eyes, and said: "A person who has played less than fifty games pushed me to this level, and I even doubted my chess skills. If I had the guts, it would probably break into powder halfway down.”

"Oh? How did you know that I can play less than fifty games of Go?"

"Hmph, I said before about your posture and movements when playing chess. However, you are really different. Let alone lifting people, even a Jinshi like you who doesn't actually play and only reads chess records would not be able to push me to this point. "

"Thank you for the compliment, Your Highness Princess."

"Come on, let's play another game! I want you to understand the power of women at the second level of chess!" Zhao Hongzhuang glared at Fang Yun, her beautiful face full of fighting spirit.

Fang Yun was about to tease her, but suddenly thought of how much effort a woman with no talent would have to put in to reach the second level in chess, so she smiled proudly and said: "My next game will definitely make it more difficult for you to win, and may even make you lose! "

"Don't believe it! Come!" Zhao Hongzhuang became more motivated.

The two immediately started the second set. This time, Fang Yun was quite decent and did not try his best, while Zhao Hongzhuang went all out and gained an absolute advantage in the middle set.

"Oh, we still lost. It's so miserable." Fang Yun shook his head and sighed.

Zhao Hongzhuang grinned happily, her white teeth particularly eye-catching.

"Smile without showing your teeth!"

"Don't worry about me! I won!" Zhao Hongzhuang said with a proud smile, holding up her fair neck.

"Come on, continue! I want revenge!" (To be continued...)
