In the kitchen, the sound of pots and pans clanging could be heard, and the beautiful sister directed Li Wenchao to run in and out. In the inner room, I held the red piece and made an unremarkable start. Heavy sword without edge, this is the favorite start of my father and Yu Chengfei's father. Uncle Qi showed no weakness and made an unremarkable start that was no less than mine. It was like two martial arts masters fighting, but they put on the most ordinary boxing posture. But since then, he has been showing his edge. Uncle Qi did not treat me as forbearingly as he dealt with Li Wenchao, but was aggressive from the beginning, wishing that thousands of troops would come together to press. I looked at the chess game with some surprise. I didn't expect that Uncle Qi was so old, but he was still so murderous. But I remained calm, hiding a needle in cotton, and carefully dealt with Uncle Qi's overwhelming killing moves, steadily defusing his offensive step by step, and every time I was able to turn danger into safety in all kinds of difficulties.
Finally, Uncle Qi looked up at me and said softly, "Not bad." I also said softly, "Thank you." Uncle Qi asked again, "Who is your teacher?" I answered honestly, "My dad." Uncle Qi showed a surprised look again, "I thought you had at least an amateur 7th-dan master." I don't know how good my chess skills are. I have only played chess with Yu Chengfei since I was a child. Sometimes I want to play with my dad or Yu Chengfei's dad, but they think I am a bad chess player and don't want to play with me. But Yu Chengfei can get the treatment of playing chess with them. Although he always returns in defeat, it is enough for me to envy him. Yu Chengfei's murderous intention is also very strong. He almost leaves no room for himself. He rushes up all at once, comparable to Qin Shihuang's Ten Thousand Arrows Formation. I always have a hard time dealing with it. Later, I figured out his playing style and occasionally won half of the time.
Uncle Qi and Yu Chengfei have the same style, so I am familiar with the game. I seem to give in step by step, but I definitely don't let him get any advantage. If this continues, Uncle Qi will definitely lose. Halfway through the game, I was approaching his main general without making a sound. Uncle Qi hurriedly suspended his offensive and returned to defense, and then forced me out of the army. It seemed that he also figured out my style of play, so he stopped playing fast and fast, and fought with me in small areas. Uncle Qi changed his style of play, no longer greedy for merit and reckless, and finally took me, this furry kid, seriously. Facing Uncle Qi, whose style of play suddenly became delicate, I finally retreated step by step, and fought to the end with only a bald general, and had to admit defeat tragically. "Uncle Qi, you are awesome." I wiped the sweat from my forehead.
At this time, Li Wenchao came in to get something, glanced at the situation on the chessboard, and said, "Brother Hao, your level is about the same as mine!" I was speechless and didn't know what to say. Fortunately, Li Wenchao took the things and left. Uncle Qi also wiped his sweat and said, "You are the first person to force me to this point." I looked at the bare chessboard and thought that even my father and Yu Chengfei's father had never played to this level.
After cleaning up the mess and rearranging the pieces, I started the second game with Uncle Qi. I still played conservatively, carefully dealing with Uncle Qi's killer moves, and quietly invaded his territory with my chariots and horses. Every time Uncle Qi was about to get close to my general, he found that I was also close to his general. "When did you come here?!" Uncle Qi was very shocked. I smiled: "When your linked horses ate my cannon." Uncle Qi shook his head and smiled bitterly: "You are so scheming at such a young age, it's not simple."
Even so, I still lost the second round. Uncle Qi also wiped his sweat and said, "It was a fluke, a fluke." It can be seen that he is not a humble person. If he said it was a fluke, then it must be a fluke. After the third round started, we were all very cautious, so that after ten minutes, we were still fighting on the edge of the Chu River and Han River, and we dared not rashly enter the opponent's territory.
For a while, the battle was deadlocked. I made up my mind and commanded the army to attack frantically without hesitation. Maybe my previous style of play was too conservative, and the occasional sharp move shocked Uncle Qi. He was a little unprepared, and then he was in a panic, not knowing whether to attack or defend, and watched me eat up all his troops. Uncle Qi was stunned and said, "I didn't expect that with such a conservative and steady style, you would also have such a crazy killing moment." I smiled and was about to speak, but suddenly I remembered the bloody storm in Beiqi that I had caused, so I lowered my head and looked at the scattered chess pieces and stopped talking.
"What's wrong? Are you remembering something from the past?" Uncle Qi asked with a smile on his face.
I nodded, still without saying anything. Uncle Qi said: "Playing chess is like being a person. Whether it is decisive or cautious, it can truly reflect the character of the chess player. You are meticulous and strategic. You seem to be as calm as a mountain, but you can strangle your opponent without making a sound. If you meet an opponent with the same personality, you can burst out with incredible attack power, even if it means risking both of you to perish." Uncle Qi said, looking at me with admiration.
I thought of Hou Shengshuo, a fellow who was just as smart. In the end, I killed him with a crazy killing spree.
What Uncle Qi said was all right. As expected, playing chess is like being a human being.
After the third game, more than an hour had passed, and the beautiful sister invited us to eat. With six dishes and a soup, the four of us sat around a table and spent a lively lunch. In the afternoon, Uncle Qi and I were still tireless and continued to play chess. Li Wenchao sat next to us and watched for a while, frowning constantly, and finally couldn't help but said: "I don't understand why you two are so troublesome. Why don't you just fight the opponent's main general? Why do you have to entangle with those soldiers, horses, cannons, and chariots?" Uncle Qi and I were speechless for a moment - does this question need to be explained seriously?
