Huang Longshi afterwards.
Everyone in the Liyang Dynasty likes to use this term to ridicule someone as an afterthought.
Of course, the hindsight comes from the original chess game created by Huang Longshi. Xiangqi banned Shuanglu, also known as holding a long line, and became the behavior of celebrities second only to hand-talking.
A small teahouse in Beimang.
The shedding parrot still likes to call everyone his father-in-law, the shopkeeper of the teahouse surnamed Huang is still so unmotivated, and the girl who has a big cat doesn't look good to customers, plus three days of fishing and two days of posting on the net Well, the tavern business is as deserted as a cemetery, which makes Wen Hua, who has never been able to earn money to go to the brothel to pretend to be romantic, very depressed at the moment and under his crotch.
Today, there was a wooden sign outside the teahouse saying no customers and no business. After Wen Hua walked into the tavern with a birdcage, he never treated his Wu Zang Temple badly. He made a bowl of fragrant scallion noodles and ate it. Three wooden boxes came, full of chess pieces, two boxes of black and white pieces, and one box of colorful glazed pieces. The table was emptied, and they were placed there. Playing tricks, if you have the ability to set up a chess and chess stall to earn copper money like your buddy Xu Fengnian! What kind of hero is he who pretends to be a chess master behind closed doors? After finishing the scallion noodles, I was thinking about sneaking to the kitchen to have another bowl to treat myself, just thinking that I couldn’t make ends meet, I really didn’t have the guts to take advantage of it, Wen Hua didn’t waste anything, licked up the large white porcelain bowl, and sighed at the empty bowl . Bored, I had to sit with the old man Huang with the bowls and chopsticks. The girl Jia, who would yell at the guests and want to kill with a knife, was carrying a sunflower with her legs resting on the bench in a daze. Wen Hua didn't have the guts to follow She sat on a stool, and asked the old man Huang to move a little, and put his butt beside Huang Longshi. Wen Hua saw the black and white confrontation on the table, mixed with many colorful glazed chess pieces, Wen Hua wanted to touch it Let’s see if one is worth money. If it’s worth, it’s okay to steal a few pawns. How long has it been since you’ve been paid? Not to mention the red envelopes during the holidays! It's a pity that Huang Longshi slapped his claws off, Wen Hua casually put the bowl and chopsticks on the corner of the table, and said with a smile: "Old Huang, what are you doing, tell me something about it."
Huang Longshi immediately carried a box of Liulizi in one hand, pinched his fingers with the other hand, held his breath, and ignored the noise of Wen Hua, the waiter in the shop.
Wen Hua felt bored, so he had to turn his head to look at the girl who liked to giggle, "Jia Jiajia's marriage is a fake with a price increase, let me tell you clearly, that big cat is a glutton, we can't afford it!"
The delicate girl chuckled without even looking at Wen Hua. Wen Hua slapped the table and said angrily: "Don't rely on the old yellow head to support you, you just follow me hahaha, I don't have the fairy ability to touch gold with fossils, the three of us The big cat with three mouths does not eat as much with one mouth. The business in the store is so miserable, and I didn’t see you paying attention. You said the one yesterday, didn’t you just say that the tea is not authentic? You will use a plate to chop his head off. , and the guest from the day before yesterday said that the fragrance of the tea was not strong enough, and you want to screw his head again, do you still have the law? I am still a Zhu Bajie and I am not a human being in the mirror?!"
The girl faced Wen Hua and let out a sigh.
Wen Hua slapped his forehead, so angry that he suffered internal injuries.
Shopkeeper Huang gently smoothed the chess pieces that were shaken by the porcelain bowl, and said with a frown, "It's fine if you don't starve to death. Even if you make the teahouse the largest in Beimang, you will be promising?"
Wen Hua asked back: "Isn't that considered promising?"
The old Confucian businessman with a gentle and elegant demeanor glanced at him, "Then why don't you practice swords at all, I promise you will become a first-class wealthy gentry in Beimang, how about it?"
Wen Hua waved his hand and said: "Go, go, don't let me practice swords, you might as well kill me."
Shopkeeper Huang asked with a smile, "I am?"
Wen Hua hurriedly smiled and said, "Small one. You've been playing chess for so long, are your hands sore and your shoulders tired? Can you rub and tap?"
The more chess pieces are placed, the dense black and white chess pieces and the relatively sparse colored glaze pieces on a table, the porcelain white bowl becomes an eyesore, the old man waved: "Take it away."
Wen Hua got a word, picked up the bowl and ran to the kitchen, eating alone and making a bowl of green onion noodles is not very particular, but it is better to be happy alone than to be happy together, next three bowls of noodles, for the strange pair It is still possible for the father and daughter to also carry it. Ignoring that boy Wen Hua, the old man Huang looked at the chess game that was becoming more and more clear. He knocked a relatively large glazed piece into a hinterland in his hand, and then he seemed hesitant to pull out a glazed chess piece. . The old man put down the chess box and said to himself: "Girl, Dad, I missed this good show this time. There is nothing I can do. The man in the capital city whose tongue I cut off sent a letter to you." , I want to settle the old score with me. On the one hand, my father couldn't bear it, and on the other hand, he was looking forward to the next direction, so he agreed to him once. Chess pieces have to be alive, and they can make eyes, so that chess is interesting. Otherwise You see, this place is called Tiemenguan, and it is a place with good Fengshui. It is much better to die there than to die on the battlefield where ghosts and tens of thousands of dead people share their fate. This big Liulizi who went to Xishu , if he eats the two batches of chess pieces Zhao Kai and Xu Fengnian in one bite and stays in Beiliang, it will be much more interesting than if he becomes the king of some county. Don't stare at me, it's that kid who wants to crash into this chess game , I didn't trip him up this time. Don't worry, that kid has made a lot of money this time, and he will be the King of Beiliang here, so be safe."
"Xu Fengnian is dead, Chen Zhibao will have to live under the shadow of Xu Xiao all his life if he takes the position of King of Beiliang. Ask for it, the man in the capital doesn't want to see this scene. But that guy underestimated the next King of Beiliang, a kid surnamed Xu, how can he be more open-minded than Chen Zhibao? It's not his fault, after all On the surface, Chen Zhibao still has to beat Xu Fengnian too much, too much. But in the history of chess games between national players, the eye sockets are shallow, and they will suffer a lot."
The girl shook the golden sunflower and smiled.
In his life, the old man has produced endless tricks, which makes people look at the flowers in a fog, and even realize it after ten or twenty years, but the old man himself rarely tells others, but since he is his own daughter by his side, he has no secrets , said eloquently, "This time, neither of the opposing sides has a clean ass. In order to take the overall situation into consideration, the loser has to hold his nose. The bottom line of this interception is very clear. If the emperor of the Zhao family does not do it himself, The same is true for Xu Xiao. As for whether their sons are alive or dead, it depends on good fortune and hard work. However, the Ninth Five-Year Lord in the capital has an advantage that both parties know well. He has many princes, and even if one dies It hurts a little, but it doesn't hurt the bones, but the son of the Zhao family, who was the first to land on the chessboard, obviously didn't expect Beiliang to deal with it so resolutely. Otherwise, according to common sense, as long as Jiange does not have He Yan's three thousand elite riders, as long as the remnants of Nangong do not leave the cabinet, as long as Cao Changqing does not pay back the favor as promised, Xu Fengnian and Zhao Kai will lose, and Chen Zhibao will lose for a short time. No lose, no win, defeated Beiliang and became the king of Shu, but when Xu Xiao dies in the future, half of Beiliang may be in his pocket. Compared with Xu Xiao, Chen Zhibao has advantages and disadvantages. The advantage is that he is young, civil and military. They are all well-deserved romantic and unparalleled, somewhat like me... "
"Ah."
"All right, all right, dad won't brag about this with you. Continue to babble about serious things with you. Chen Zhibao's advantage is that he has accumulated momentum for many years. It is only his adoptive father Xu Xiao, not the Confucian general, who has chilled the hearts of scholars all over the world. The soldier saint. The disadvantages are also obvious. If he wants to be the king of Beiliang, his name will not be justified. If he dies, he will decline again and again, so if he really wants to be emperor, he can only wait for ten years at most. They are all the same, how can such a reputation last for two or three generations? Only Xu Xiao is such an outlier in the Liyang Army. Chen Zhibao is still a little short of fire."
"I have long said that Qin Tianjian's group of poor old scholars are all half-baked fools who only recognize rigid figures and do not understand the secrets of heaven. They have been deceived by me for so many years and still have no memory. Zhao Kai is also interesting, Do you really think that your luck is invincible in the world? The female guru from the Western Regions is not so smart. Zhao Kai's luck is based on the accumulation of Han Diao Temple, which has been attached to the dragon for more than 30 years, and that old bald donkey Yang Taisui. She came out, plus she is also a Taoist, and with her by her side, Zhao Kai's vitality has been added to the invisible, so it looks like a sweet pastry that is expected to be enthroned and proclaimed emperor? A member of the three religions personally entered the game, How many of them will end well? Monk Nagarjuna and Yang Taisui are all dead. Those celestial masters in Longhushan, the older generation also have no good end. After all, they all think they are transcendent. , in fact, a poor man who is not at all comfortable and carefree."
"Father, I have fooled so many auspicious signs and visions that have been learned from the past during the Spring and Autumn Period, and these smart people still haven't seen it through. It can be seen that the difference between cleverness and cleverness is a world of difference."
"Beimang Taiping ordered Lin Lao to refuse to accept his old age, and he wanted to play a game with me. I don't know if I created the chess situation that clearly divides the world. The world should be honestly handed over to the young people. Squat If you don’t shit in the latrine, the old shit is hard, how to water the fields?”
Hearing this, the corner of the girl's mouth curled up, and she smiled.
Wen Hua, who was bringing over three bowls of green onion noodles, said angrily, "Old man Huang, can we not talk about this while eating?!"
Seeing that the shopkeeper hadn't moved, Wen Hua glared and said, "You still have to free up the table?"
The old man smiled lightly, and waved the chess pieces all over the table with one sleeve. Wen Hua put down three pairs of bowls and chopsticks, and chattered endlessly, "If you play chess, you know how to play chess. It's amazing to be able to play chess. When I practice swords and become a sword fairy, No matter who you are, if you dare to jump in front of me, you will serve me with a sword!"
The old man picked up the chopsticks and asked with a smile: "Oh? Then I taught you how to practice swords and made you suffer so much. Then you will be the first to kill me?"
Wen Hua laughed and said: "How dare I dare. I, Wen Hua, am not the kind of ungrateful person. I am handsome, have a good temper, and have a heart of old ways. I don't talk about these advantages. The key is loyalty. ah!"
The old man shook his head with a smile, feeling a little helpless, picked up the fragrant green onion noodles with chopsticks, lowered his head to eat in front of him, and said, "You go to Liyang Capital."
Wen Hua was stunned, and asked in a low voice: "Are you going directly to the capital to gain fame? Don't you need to warm up your hands in a small place first?"
The old man wrapped his chopsticks in noodles, stretched his neck and blew the hot air on the noodles for his daughter, for fear that she would be burned, hehe, the girl smiled brightly, picked off a small sunflower, and put it on the edge of the old man's bowl.
It is joyous to look at.
The old man was in a good mood, and said to Wen Hua: "You don't want to become a blockbuster? Also, you can meet the sensual and beautiful white jade lion, that is, the brothel woman you fell in love with at first sight."
Wen Hua slurped and ate the noodles, and said with a smile: "What's wrong with the girls in the brothel, I just like it. This trip to the capital, I will go!"
The old man smiled.
After eating the noodles, the old man took out some money and told Wen Hua who had finished packing the dishes and returned to his seat, "Go, buy a jug of good wine."
Wen Hua rolled his eyes and said: "The tea sellers go to buy wine to drink, only old man Huang can do it!"
Not long after, Wen Hua came back with a pot of wine, and the old man said calmly, "I will keep the remaining money for myself."
Wen Hua chuckled, and said to go out for a trip, then went to the hut where he lived and took out a bag of broken silver that he had hidden, packed it up all at once, rubbed the soles of his feet with oil and ran out of the teahouse.
He had taken a fancy to a set of erotic pictures a long time ago, and today he finally collected enough money, so he went out to buy it. Back then, he and Xu Xiaozi both had such a hobby, but at that time when they traveled around the rivers and lakes, they were so poor that they had no money, but now they have a little money, and they must think about their brothers together, Wen Hua thought of meeting each other next time, so he took this as a meeting gift. Courtesy is light and affection is heavy.
That kid dares to dislike him, so I will cut him with a wooden sword!
Hehe, the girl doesn't drink, and watches the old man drink alone.
The old man laughed softly and said, "Thirteen in the Spring and Autumn Period, I am the top three. The other ten people, except for Chen Zhibao who entered Shu, and Song Guanhai, who dominated the Liyang literary circle these years, are almost gone. Oh, the Song family is one of the top three. , was about to be killed by Lu Xu."
The old man didn't seem to have a good capacity for alcohol, and after drinking most of the pot, he fell down and fell asleep.
The girl went to fetch a thick shirt and quietly covered the old man. Then she stayed by his side and began to be in a daze again.
The old man was still drunk and murmured softly: "Mr. Zhuang dreams of a butterfly, a butterfly dreams of Mr. Zhuang? I dream of Mr. Zhuang and I dream of a butterfly..."
