Chapter 039 A game of chess?
The end of a game of chess, and the tea is fragrant.
After collecting the chess pieces, Zhang Chengdong and the other two began to taste tea. The old man in the mahjong was named Yan, Zhang Chengdong called him Shi Yan, and the old man in the Confucian uniform was named Gui, and Zhang Chengdong called him Mr.
Zhang Chengdong did not deliberately introduce Lu Zheng to the two, but the old man in Mai noticed Lu Zheng's existence.
After tasting tea for a while, the old man in Mai looked up at Lu Zheng and said, "Young man, do you want to study?"
Lu Zheng was slightly stunned and said, "Everything is inferior, only reading is high!"
The old man in Mai frowned slightly and said, "At a young age, his heart is full of fame and fortune. It would be fine if you can't achieve anything after studying. If you really achieve something by luck, it may not be a blessing for the court or the people."
Lu Zheng's heart skipped a beat and he immediately felt the urge to laugh.
What big-tailed eagle is this old guy in front of me? Who has no desire for fame and fortune these days? The three people here all look like masters and hermits sitting here, but do they have no intention of fame and fortune in their hearts?
Lu Zheng was a human being in two lives, and his life experience was not something that others could move with just a few words.
He observed his expression and felt that Master Yan and Master Gui had both entered the official career. He probably had a frustration in the official career, so he was depressed and unsuccessful. Often, this type of person likes to be arrogant the most to prove his uniqueness.
There were many such people in ancient times. If they failed to become officials, they would not reflect on their behavior and do things. They always liked to attribute the reasons to the darkness and corruption of the officialdom. After they stepped down, they immediately packaged themselves morally, making them look like they were a master and hermit. In fact, they were envious of others when they saw others reaching the top.
The more they envied, the more they often showed disdain, and they also used poetry to tell the world about this disdain. Some people later often used these poems to appreciate the author's noble character. In fact, anyone with a discerning eye understands the author's complex mentality. Such people are complete losers. Lu Zheng never thought that such people could become their own good teachers and friends.
However, for Lu Zheng, what he needs most now is studying time. His pitiful self-study ability cannot support his dream of "everything is inferior but only studying high". Without the guidance of a teacher, if he can take the scientific exam?
In addition, he cannot find a teacher or enter the circle of scholars. If he does not enter the circle, how can he have the opportunity to show his talents?
The two old men in front of him are suitable teachers for Lu Zheng. If they are willing to teach Lu Zheng, wouldn’t Lu Zheng’s wish to enter the school be achieved indirectly?
As soon as he thought of this, Lu Zheng blurted out: "Everyone in the world knows that gods and immortals are good, but they can't forget their fame. Where are the generals and ministers in ancient and modern times? A pair of grass is gone. Students think that all scholars have the heart of fame and fortune.
If all the desire for fame, fortune and wealth will be gone, the court will be in danger and the country will be in danger!"
When Lu Zheng said this, the old man in Mai and the old man in Confucian uniform were both stunned, while Zhang Chengdong suddenly raised his eyebrows.
The old man in Confucian uniform said, "Brother? Do you have any allusions?"
Lu Zheng smiled faintly and said, "There is no allusion. I just occasionally listen to a monk chanting a song randomly, and the students feel something. Teacher Gui is interested. I will recite this song "Okay Song" to let you taste it."
Lu Zheng immediately chanted backwards: "Everyone in the world knows that gods are good, only gold and silver can't be forgotten. I only regret not having much gathered in the whole day, and I closed my eyes for a long time..."
After Lu Zheng finished reciting the song "Okay Song", the old man in Mayi and the old man in Confucian uniform were moved, especially the old man in Mayi. He slapped the armrest of the chair hard and said:
"The most reasonable words come from the mouths of monks in the world, but they are really "Good Song". That's good, that's good! This is ridiculing everyone who is stupid!"
The old man in Mai's expression was very bleak, while the old man in Confucian uniform and Zhang Chengdong pondered silently. Both of them looked at Lu Zheng with a change in their eyes.
Zhang Chengdong actually didn't know Lu Zheng very well, thinking that Lu Zheng was just born with those cunning and treacherous tricks. Now Lu Zheng's conversation makes people feel that although he is not old, he has a gap in his heart, so he really cannot be underestimated!
The old man in Mai looked at Lu Zheng again and said, "Young man, you know how to play chess?"
Lu Zheng nodded and said, "I know a little, but my chess is not as fierce as a gentleman. The winner or loser of the chess does not lie in fighting, but in the final result. Those who occupy more land will win. Under the rules, killing and decisive decision is important, but tolerating and giving in, compromising and changing are also necessary!"
"Um?"
"Sit on the opposite side, we play a game!"
After the old man in mai said that, the boy immediately moved a chair for Lu Zheng, and the tea table was moved aside. The girl playing the piano stopped and wanted to get up and give way and re-arrange it.
After a busy life, Lu Zheng sat opposite the old man in Maiyi. On both sides, Mr. Gui and Zhang Chengdong sat separately. The ancient chess was a chess. Lu Zheng was young and held black before he could not look at him.
Go has been developed for thousands of years from ancient times to modern times, and its concepts and layout have undergone countless changes. Lu Zheng's chess skills are not high, but after being influenced by modern Go concepts, his understanding of chess is much more advanced than that of the ancients.
Sure enough, his first move in the game was different from that of the old man in Mai.
After a few moves, the old man in Mayi couldn't help but frown, because Lu Zheng did not have a direct contact with him. You walked your way, and I walked mine. This made the old man in Mayi, who was used to close fighting, feel uncomfortable.
But soon, his mind was devoted to the chessboard and entered a state of forgetting both things and me.
The number of pieces on the chessboard began to gradually increase, and the game gradually led to complexity. The characteristic of Go is that as the power of the piece increases, the complexity level increases in geometric range. The old man in Mai uses strong power everywhere, but Lu Zheng cannot give in everywhere. The game of chess is inevitable and the fight begins to take place.
Both sides slowed down, and Mr. Gui and Zhang Chengdong stared at the chessboard intently. Their investment was no less than that of the opponent.
Time passed in the chess game, until noon, and the old man in Mai walked out of the move he thought for half an hour later.
"Well!" He seemed very satisfied with this move. He stared at Lu Zheng with sharp eyes, and the wrinkles on his face seemed to become vivid again.
Not only him, but the expression of the old man in Confucian uniform gradually became cheerful, and Zhang Chengdong's expression also became relieved, but Lu Zheng's expression did not change at all.
Lu Zheng picked up a black piece and placed it on the chessboard slowly.
"Ah..." The old man in Mai exclaimed, and the old man in Confucian uniform held back and said, "Young man, you are already dead!"
Lu Zheng nodded softly and said, "Yes! But I won!"
"Well?"
The expressions of the old man in the Confucian uniform and Zhang Chengdong instantly became extremely exciting. The old man in the Mai clothes was obviously much higher. He had already realized that Lu Zheng had indeed won. He worked hard to kill a large piece of Lu Zheng, but it turned out that Lu Zheng took the initiative to abandon him.
In this square chessboard, the two of them fought wits and courage. In the end, Lu Zheng was more skilled. He used a big chess as bait to let the old man in Mai get into his trap without knowing it. Finally, when the old man in Mai thought he would determine the universe with one blow, Lu Zheng suddenly turned around, and then looked closely and saw that Lu Zheng's situation had an advantage, and the advantage was unshakable.
Go is very complicated, and it seems that it always contains some irrefutable philosophy. The ancients' research on Go is far less profound than modern Go. Once this philosophy is displayed, it will have a greater impact on people's thoughts.
The plate behind became very simple, and the pace of the two people making a move suddenly accelerated. When Lu Zheng dropped his last son, the old man in the Confucian military uniform couldn't wait to say: "Search, Search!"
Lu Zheng said: "I won the seven sons, and I was lucky!"
The old man in the Confucian uniform changed his face. He stared at Lu Zheng like a monster.
The result Lu Zheng said naturally could not be recognized by everyone. Three old men gathered next to the chessboard, earnestly digits, and the number results were not much, and Lu Zheng won the seven sons.
The audience was silent, and the three old men looked at each other.
This result was really shocking for them. They always firmly believed that the old man in a macaque was in an absolute advantage in this game. There were too many places Lu Zheng gave in at critical moments, but in fact the situation was always under Lu Zheng's control.
This seemed incredible to them, but if the chess game was not under Lu Zheng's control, why did Lu Zheng accurately report the gap between the two sides as soon as the chess game ended?
This really shocked them, because Lu Zheng was too young, of course they would not know that Lu Zheng was just standing on the shoulders of giants. The situation of modern Go was not a number, but a number method, which could accurately and quickly calculate the gap between the two sides.
Lu Zheng was also surprised that he could bring such a shocking effect through a game of chess. In fact, in terms of level, he was really worse. It was just that his opponent had never encountered his chess strategy, so he was careless and finally won.
The old man and the other three of them remained silent for a long time. They fell into a huge shock and came back to their senses. Lu Zheng said: "In fact, Master Yan showed mercy. At least three times, Master Yan did not choose the most intense trick, otherwise the outcome of the chess game would be unpredictable!"
The three of them all turned their heads and looked at Lu Zheng. The old man in Mai said, "What do you call me?"
"The student's surname is Lu, his name is Zheng, from Jiangning!" Lu Zheng bowed respectfully according to the etiquette of his younger generations.
The old man in Mai nodded slightly and said, "You can come here often!"
Lu Zheng quickly knelt down and thanked: "Thank you, Master Yan, I will definitely come to visit Master Yan often."
The old man in Confucian uniform shook his sleeves gently and said, "Lu Zheng, starting tomorrow, you can come to Guanshan Academy to study! I hope you can forge ahead and study hard."
"ah?"
Lu Zheng was stunned for a moment, and then he was ecstatic. He did not expect that the old man in Confucian uniform was actually the teacher of Guanshan Academy. By the way, his surname was Gui, the head of Guanshan Academy. Isn’t Gui Liang, a famous scholar in Yangzhou, the surname is Gui?
