Fu Jinyu was not afraid either, and said, "Let's bet, is there a prize?"

"What prize do you want?"

Fu Jinyu said, "I heard that you have a lot of fairy fragments, I will bet on those fragments. One fragment per round."

"You..." Xu Wen took a step back in fear, "You actually set your sights on my fragments?"

"What? You don't dare to bet?"

"Okay, let's bet." Xu Wen said, "But the prize is two-way, what do you use to bet?"

Fu Jinyu took out a piece of jade and said, "This is a warm jade, warm in winter and cool in summer, which can help people calm their minds. Although it is a common item, it is intact. Do you think it can be equal to the fairy fragment?"

Xu Wen took it and looked at it, and nodded, "Okay."

The two agreed on the prize, and with a flash of war in their eyes, they sat down.

After a while, the two put a bunch of chess pieces on the chessboard.

Soon, Fu Jinyu was the first to fall into deep thought.

He was originally elegant, but he bit his fingers unconsciously.

Xu Wen changed his cowardice of the lower floors, and his whole aura became fierce.

Sitting on the chessboard, he was as still as a mountain, but his eyes revealed a murderous aura.

Zhang Tian couldn't help but be a little surprised. It was the first time he saw this kind of aura in Xu Wen.

This aura was very similar to Niu Er, Tiedong, Tienan and others.

However, Niu Er, Tiedong and others maintained this murderous aura all year round.

And Xu Wen seemed to turn on this switch only on the chessboard.

I heard him say before that he took a knife to the top of the city to defend Xiangyang, which was probably not a lie.

This is two extremes from Fu Jinyu.

Fu Jinyu is more like a flower cultivated in a greenhouse, gorgeous, but there is always a lack of tenacity in his bones.

Xu Wen lives in Xiangyang and has experienced wars all year round.

Many talents are affected by financial resources and environment, and they cannot learn and have no intention to learn.

So when he arrived at Lin'an Prefecture, he felt inferior to other scholars.

Just like weeds in the wild, they can't grow beautiful appearance under wind and rain.

But there is only a rage to survive, even murderous!

After a while, Fu Jinyu took out two chess pieces and put them on the chessboard, indicating that he admitted defeat.

"Brother Xu is really good. This chess move is decisive and murderous. Jinyu is ashamed of himself."

As he said, he pushed the warm jade to Xu Wen.

Xu Wen laughed "Haha", took the warm jade and played with it carefully for a while, and then pushed it back to Fu Jinyu.

"A gentleman does not take away what others like. This piece of jade is round and delicate. I guess you have worn it for a long time. You should keep it."

Fu Jinyu refused to accept it and pushed it back, saying: "I am willing to accept the loss. How can I not afford to lose?"

Xu Wen smiled and said: "Well, next time I meet Mr. Fu in the palace, I will give him the jade. By the way, tell him the origin of the jade..."

"Hey... Brother Xu, how can we ask the parents for our children's affairs? Can't I take it back?"

Fu Jinyu looked around and saw that no one was paying attention to their table. He put the jade back in his arms with a guilty conscience.

Then he bowed to Xu Wen and said: "Thank you, Brother Xu. If you need any help in Lin'an Prefecture in the future, just come to me."

Just after he finished speaking, he smiled a little embarrassedly.

Looking at Zhang Tian who was a little drowsy on the side, Fu Jinyu thought to himself that since the other party had such a teacher, he might be the one who needed help.

"Teacher? Teacher?" Xu Wen called softly, "We're done."

"Oh? It took so long?" Zhang Tian came back to his senses, "How many games did you play?"

Xu Wen was a little speechless. It was only a moment, and the immortal master fell asleep.

How bad was his chess, that he couldn't catch the immortal master's eye?

"Teacher, I just played one game. I want to review it, please give me some advice."

Zhang Tian shook his head: "I don't know much about chess, I can't teach you this."

In later generations, there are too many entertainment activities, and fewer and fewer young people play chess.

Zhang Tian was also sent to an interest class by his parents. He learned the basic knowledge for a month and only knew the basic content such as the rules of winning and losing, life and death, and numbers.

People in later generations regard it more as a traditional culture rather than a gambling skill.

Just now, the two of them played chess. Just after the opening stage, Zhang Tian couldn't understand it, so he fell asleep.

"Okay." Xu Wen raised his eyes and looked around.

Just then, there was a table on the other side that had decided the winner and was also looking for an opponent.

The two young men's eyes collided in the air, splashing a hint of fighting spirit.

The other scholar came over and bowed to Fu Jinyu: "Mr. Fu, I haven't seen you for a while."

Fu Jinyu replied: "Brother Hu, please come to Lin'an Prefecture more often when you have time, we can learn more about chess."

Mr. Hu said: "Haha, I will. I just worshipped Lord Chu as my teacher a few days ago. I will stay in Lin'an Prefecture before the imperial examination."

"Hiss..." Fu Jinyu took a breath, "Master Chu Sizhuang, the national champion?"

"Yes, he is my master."

Fu Jinyu said, "Brother Hu is so lucky to be able to worship the national champion Chu as his master. I am afraid that I will not be able to compete with you in chess in the future."

Mr. Hu was not modest and said, "You are too kind. It is all thanks to the teacher's cultivation."

Fu Jinyu stood up, gave up his position, pointed to Xu Wen with his palm, and said, "This is Brother Xu. I just lost to him. You can compete with each other."

"Brother Xu."

"Brother Hu."

Seeing that Zhang Tian was drowsy, Mr. Hu thought it was a scholar who was traveling with him, so he sat down without asking any questions.

Fu Jinyu stood behind Xu Wen and said, "Brother Xu, be careful. Brother Hu's chess is better than mine. Now that he has worshipped the national champion as his master, I am afraid that his level is higher."

Xu Wen was immediately eager to fight and said, "That's great."

People who like chess have a strong desire to win or lose.

Both sides did not say much, cleared the chessboard, and began to place their pieces.

After the opening stage, both sides' moves became noticeably slower.

Zhang Tian felt bored, so he stood up and strolled around, looking down at the scenery of Lin'an Prefecture.

After a while, he looked back and saw that there were still not many moves on the chessboard.

At this speed, it would take at least an hour to finish a game.

Zhang Tian went to the seventh floor, wanting to see what fun things there were on the seventh and eighth floors.

Unexpectedly, there was a door on the stairs leading to the seventh floor, and a doorman was guarding the door.

Seeing Zhang Tian approach, he saluted and said, "Sir, do you have a sign for the seventh floor?"

"What sign?"

The doorman patiently explained, "Is this your first time in Wangyue Tower? The seventh and eighth floors are places for adults to rest and meet guests. You cannot go up there without a sign or an invitation."

"Oh, forget it."

Zhang Tian often saw officials in the palace. If there were other officials resting or meeting guests up there, it would be troublesome to call them back and forth, so he was too lazy to go.

Everyone around was playing Go quietly. Zhang Tian was bored and had to sit back at the chess table.

At this time, the situation had just passed the middle stage, but Xu Wen's brows were getting more and more furrowed.

It was obvious that the opponent put a lot of pressure on him.

Xu Wen might have some talent in Go, but how could he compare to the disciples selected and trained by the national players themselves?

This Mr. Hu must have a good talent, and after systematic learning, it is reasonable that he is worse than Xu Wen, who is a wild player.

Xu Wen thought hard for a long time and sighed: "Alas... I am not as good as others, so I can't play this game."

"Thank you, Brother Xu." The scholar surnamed Hu bowed.

Xu Wen said: "Play another game?"

Mr. Hu said lightly: "Brother Xu, today is a literary gathering, so it is not appropriate to play more. If you are interested, when you improve your chess skills, we can fight here again."

The implication is that Xu Wen's chess skills are not good enough, so let him go back and practice first.

Although the tone is light, the arrogance in his words can be smelled by everyone on the whole floor.
