"On the chessboard, each piece has its own unique role and value, and it is not possible to simply say that any one piece is the most powerful."
As he spoke, Ye Li began skillfully placing each chess piece onto the chessboard.
"For example, this soldier can only move forward one space each turn and cannot move backward. However, after it successfully crosses the river, it can move left or right..."
As Ye Li spoke, he pointed to the pieces representing pawns on the chessboard.
"The cannon can..."
"And this horse, it has to follow the shape of the Chinese character '日' (sun).
"The elephant can only walk on the field, and it cannot cross the Chu River and Han border..."
"......"
Ye Li explained at length, while Bai Yuekui listened attentively, nodding occasionally to show his understanding.
"scholar......"
"Generals and commanders cannot leave the Nine Palaces. Whoever's general or commander is killed first loses. Do you understand?"
Bai Yuekui nodded slightly and replied confidently, "Yes, I understand!"
"Let's play a round, you go first." Ye Li's lips curled up slightly, revealing an innocent smile as he said, "Oh, and if you lose, there has to be a prize!"
Hearing this, Zhao Lu frowned, pouted, and snorted with some dissatisfaction: "Ye Li, you've gone too far! Isn't this obviously bullying an honest person?"
However, Ye Li completely ignored her complaints and retorted dismissively, "You don't have to play!"
"Hmph, this person has no good intentions whatsoever!"
Zhao Lu leaned closer to Bai Yuekui and whispered something.
"It's alright, it's just a game!" Bai Yuekui said casually, taking out a piece of black iron from his spatial ring. "The most valuable thing I have right now is a legendary material!"
"Yes, yes!"
Ye Li nodded, took out a technology core from his spatial ring and placed it on the table: "Don't say I'm bullying you, this thing of mine is much more valuable than your legendary materials."
Bai Yuekui raised an eyebrow and looked at Ye Li, asking, "Should I make the first move?"
Ye Li nodded without hesitation and replied, "Of course, ladies first, you go first."
Li Qingge sat down next to Bai Yuekui and asked, "Yuekui, do you need my help?"
"No need, I can do it myself!"
Bai Yuekui from the passage.
After saying that, Bai Yuekui grabbed the second cannon without hesitation, advanced seven steps, and landed on Ye Li's horse at the baseline.
"Eat your cannon and horse!"
With a crisp sound of a piece being placed, Bai Yuekui put down his cannon and swiftly removed the horse and cannon from Ye Li's chessboard.
"etc!"
Ye Li suddenly waved his hand, urgently calling out to Bai Yuekui. He stared at Bai Yuekui with a face full of doubt and asked in bewilderment, "Taking my horse is one thing, but why do you also take my cannon?"
Zhao Lu and Li Qingge also looked at Bai Yuekui, neither of them thinking too much about it.
They assumed that Bai Yuekui simply hadn't figured out the rules of chess yet.
At this moment, Bai Yuekui explained, "This is a laser cannon. Isn't your laser cannon supposed to shoot in a straight line? Do you think you can kill the ones behind you without killing the ones in front?"
"......"
Ye Li stared at Bai Yuekui speechlessly, about to say something.
Zhao Lu suddenly spoke first: "Yue Kui is right. Ye Li, they haven't played it before, so don't be so serious about it, okay?"
Is this a matter of being overly meticulous?
