Chapter 53 Chess Game
Gu Mingzhu took the black and made the first move.

Xu Jue holds the white piece in his hand, and moves the piece freely.

Gu Mingzhu is quite proficient in chess, and the two of them came and went back and forth, and quickly finished half a game of chess.

Gu Mingzhu was a little absent-minded, and said: "It's not that my brother came here after he was on a business trip, why hasn't he been seen yet."

Xu Jue dropped a stone, picked up a few sunspots, and said, "Perhaps there is a temporary delay."

Gu Mingzhu gave a compliment, dropped black pieces, and picked up a few white pieces.

Xu Jue smiled softly: "Stingy."

It's another you come and go.

In the end, Xu Jue sighed helplessly: "Forget it, it's a draw."

Gu Mingzhu squinted her eyes and smiled, took a sip from the teacup to moisten her throat, and then said: "It's still early, come again."

"Alright."

The two tidied up the chessboard again, this time it was still Gu Mingzhu who was holding the black pieces, her hands were slender and white, and the jet-black pieces were held between her white fingers, which looked very pretty.

The sunspots fall, and the whites follow.

Gu Mingzhu played very casually, and Xu Jue was also a little loose. It looked like he was playing chess, but the two were talking softly. Playing chess seemed like an excuse to connect them together and chat.

Black and white chess pieces each occupy half of the chessboard.

Gu Mingzhu picked up a chess piece, and with a smile on her lips, she dropped the sunspot on one place on the board.

The originally sloppy chess game suddenly underwent a qualitative change.

Xu Jue took the chess piece and landed it in another place. The whole white chess piece suddenly tensed up, like a soldier ready to go.

Gu Mingzhu quickly landed a blow and immediately disintegrated the trap on the left, but seeing Xu Jue's extremely fast speed, he set up a trap in another place.

In a blink of an eye, the two made eleven sons in a row.

Gu Mingzhu's speed began to slow down, and the black chess in his hand hesitated.

As long as you land this piece on the left, you can gain a short-term victory, but you will lose the middle board.

Choose left or choose east?

Gu Mingzhu was a little hesitant.

Xu Jue picked up the tea and looked at her.

When she thinks seriously, she has a very attractive beauty. This kind of beauty has nothing to do with her appearance, just because she is who she is.

She has such an attraction to herself.

Xu Jue took a sip of tea, propped his chin on his hands and tilted his head to look at her.

Gu Mingzhu didn't realize it, she finally landed in the middle.

Xu Jue quickly made a move with one hand and took away a small piece of white chess from the board.

This time Gu Mingzhu settled very quickly.

Xu Jue picked up a chess piece and dropped it almost as soon as she dropped it.

Gu Mingzhu frowned slightly.

Lure the enemy chain count!
This sunspot will never fall again.

Gu Mingzhu took a deep breath, put down the chess pieces, and said, "I lost."

But Xu Jue said: "No, Wanwan, take a closer look, I missed one thing, if you can find it, you can make up for the defeat of black chess."

Although they have no regrets, the two are not real opponents. Gu Mingzhu followed his words and looked at the chessboard carefully.

North, south, east, west?

up down left right?

The decline caused by the middle move was the first step in her plan. This chain plan turned the originally evenly matched situation into a retreat of Heizi. If she was forced to continue like this, she would definitely lose in the end.

If you are defeated, you have to take a different path to find life.

Gu Mingzhu thought hard with her cheeks on her cheeks. Her long hair was half up, and a strand of hair fell to her forehead and hung on the chessboard. She didn't notice it at all.

Xu Jue stretched out her hand, and naturally pinned the lock of hair back.

Gu Mingzhu's expression brightened, and she suddenly raised her head, as if she had discovered something serious.

Xu Jue looked at her with a gentle smile.

Gu Mingzhu squeezed the sunspot: "Put it to death and live again, although you have made a series of tricks, but as long as I make a trick here, you will lose everything."

Xu Jue smiled and praised: "Not bad."

Gu Mingzhu held the chess piece, looked at the open space, and didn't move for a while.

Xu Jue didn't wait for Heizi to come: "What's wrong?"

"I still lost." Gu Mingzhu threw the chess piece back into the chess Gu, and said: "If this is a real battlefield, when I place a piece in the middle, I have already lost. In a chaotic situation, how can I have the strength to stay in danger? , if you hadn't reminded me tonight, I wouldn't have the patience to find this flaw."

Xu Jue shook his head and said, "No, defeat is not terrible, what is terrible is the irreversible will to lose."

"I have played chess with many people, and I have conceded defeat to Master. One day, I have never played chess with Master. I was about to admit defeat, but Master told me, Xu Jue, this is just a game of chess. What you are losing now is just a game of chess. The game of chess is won or lost, but if it is on the battlefield, do you have to admit defeat? A dead game is a dead game... The game is dead, but the person is alive. Isn't this chess piece being played by humans?"

Gu Mingzhu pondered quietly, and said after a while: "Your master treats you very well."

Xu Jue cleaned up the chessboard and said, "Master taught me a lot of principles."

Gu Mingzhu said: "Okay, I lost, and I will grill fish for you tomorrow."

Xu Jue smiled silently and did not speak.

Gu Mingzhu asked again: "Then did you still lose chess afterwards?"

Xu Jue shook his head.

Gu Mingzhu asked: "Didn't you lose again?"

Xu Jue said: "No, I never played chess again after that."

Gu Mingzhu was taken aback.

Xu Jue said: "I have never played chess with anyone since I was 16 years old, and I have never lost a battle. If I lose, what I take away is not the black and white pieces on the chessboard, but the lives of the soldiers. It is the land of the Li country, I can't lose, and I won't lose, after my battle, the Li country can only win and never lose."

Gu Mingzhu thought carefully about Xu Jue's achievements in the last life, and found that it was really as he said.

Xu Wei relapsed two years later, and the whole country mourned. At the age of 22, Xu Jue officially became the new Dingbei King. For ten years, until his death, he never failed.

He is the only one who can lead the troops of the Li country to fight!
If it wasn't for her, he would have died of old age in Kyushu in his last life, not Jiangling.

What she owed him was more than just a life.

Gu Mingzhu let him put away the chessboard, and the two started a new game.

This time it was an extremely random round.

Because Gu Mingzhu's mind is no longer on the chessboard.

She made a few random moves, looked at the black and white pieces on the chessboard, then laughed, and said, "Xu Jue."

She rarely called him by his first and last name, and more often she didn't call him by his name.

Xu Jue looked at her.

Gu Mingzhu smiled brightly and said, "You will also be invincible in the future."

The two looked at each other quietly that night.

After a while, Xu Jue said slowly, "Of course."

Gu Mingzhu looked at the sparse chessboard and said, "Although I lost, I still don't want to catch and grill fish tomorrow."

Xu Jue looked at her fixedly.

Gu Mingzhu smiled and said, "You catch it, you roast it."

Xu Jue smiled: "Well, I'll catch it, and I'll roast it."

He looked at her, his eyes were sticky and warm as if dyed with thick paint.

Gu Mingzhu couldn't bear to be stared at by him like this, coughed lightly, and said, "It's getting late, why don't you go back to sleep?"

Xu Jue said, "Let's go now."

After he finished speaking, he stood up and said: "The chessboard is here with you, we will continue playing tomorrow."

"it is good."

　I've been a little busy these past two days--.
