The old servant was taken aback and didn't know how to respond. Xu Yi raised the wine gourd and said dissatisfied, "You are so verbose, old man. It took Eldest Brother effort to buy this jug of fine wine. I want to drink it with you when we play chess."

Xu Yi After listening to Mr. Ge's introduction to Liu Junshi's situation, he made a general assessment of this person's temperament. This time he came to see him, but he was blocked by this old servant. He knew the so-called excuse for seclusion was false as soon as he heard it. A person who is obsessed with drinking and playing chess has no intention of cultivating, so there is no need to retreat.

After seeing through this scene, he lied and lied that he was visiting by invitation.

The old servant was really confused. He knew his master's temper very well. No one had visited him for almost a year.

Moreover, this person in front of me was very unfamiliar, and he brought wine to play chess with his master. He clearly knew his master's character and hobbies very well.

"Invite the guests in."

While the old servant was hesitating, a voice came through the air. Then, a light and shadow flashed past, but the restriction in front of the mountain peak was opened.

Xu Yi entered the mountain gate, and not long after, he saw Liu Junshi at a pavilion on the top of the mountain.

Liu Junshi was completely different from the image of a decadent old man he imagined. He was a handsome middle-aged man dressed in white, with sharp eyebrows at the temples, a head full of black and gray hair, holding a wine gourd, and an air of looking up to the sky and the earth. He looked very good.

Xu Yi was sizing up Liu Junshi, and Liu Junshi glanced at him lightly and said, "This brother said he came to Liu to drink and play chess. If he doesn't play chess after drinking, Liu may make him disappointed and return home."

Xu Yi laughed, lifted Ge Fenghui out, and reluctantly established a relationship.

Liu Junshi waved his hands and said, "I can't remember anything Ge Fenghui, Ge Longhui, come to the next set."

As he spoke, he waved his hand, and an ivory-white chessboard appeared on the stone table in the center of the pavilion, with two round chess boxes, one black and one white, placed on both sides.

Xu Yi smiled slightly and came to the pavilion. He was about to take a seat next to the white chess box, but was stopped by Liu Junshi, "Liu regards chess as life, and this move is unacceptable."

Xu Yi has studied the game of Go in this world, which implements the seat system, but white moves first.

He was not proficient in Go in his previous life. His knowledge of Go only came from the memory of some Go knowledge of the original owner of this body, and he also studied the remaining Go scores handed in by Pan Meiren, Dong Xinchang, etc. before coming here.

At this moment, Liu Junshi wanted to play chess with him, and he was not in a panic. Go was closely related to logic and spatial imagination, and he had studied the art of mathematics to a very profound level, and he was confident that his chess skills were not weak.

What's more, at this moment, Liu Junshi couldn't even fight for the first move, which proved that his chess ability was nothing more than this. Xu Yi felt half relieved at first.

"Guess how many fingers I have in my hand?"

Liu Junshi put his left hand in his sleeve and handed it to Xu Yi.

Xu Yi When his senses were scanned, he knew it was five fingers, but he seemed to have seen this trick somewhere. It was just that he said five fingers, and when the person took out his hand, he cut off one finger.

If an ordinary person has to fight for the upper hand even if he loses a finger, Xu Yi will accept it.

But the other party is a monk, and a very clever monk. Not to mention cutting off a finger, even losing a hand, will be able to recover later.

He is not happy to suffer this loss.

"Brother Liu, I'll let you go now, so I won't guess anymore."

Definitely going to lose, Xu Yi might as well act with dignity and integrity.

Zomba took advantage of the situation. Liu Junshi showed no shame at all. He picked up a white stone and landed it on the chessboard.

Xu Yi then made a move, and dozens of moves were made in an instant without any slowdown.

Finally, after more than ten moves, Xu Yi's moves slowed down, and he suddenly found that he had been ambushed by Liu Junshi quietly. With such a layout, it was like sneaking into the night with the wind, moistening things silently.

Although the situation has completely collapsed, Xu Yi does not give up and manages the situation carefully, hoping to lose less and win more.

After another half a stick of incense, the game finally ended. Xu Yi lost thirteen pieces, which was considered a huge defeat.

"One more game!"

After that, Liu Junshi packed up the chess pieces without saying a word, and in an instant the nineteen lanes were clean again.

In fact, as early as Xu Yi's big dragon fell into his trap, Liu Junshi had the idea of stopping the game.

In his opinion, Xu Yi's level is only mid-range and not worthy of playing against him.

However, when he slaughtered the big dragon Xu Yi, Xu Yi's skillful skills frequently appeared. Originally, he estimated that Xu Yi would lose at least thirty pieces, but in the end he only lost thirteen pieces, which actually inspired his competitive spirit.

After more than half an hour, the second game ended.

Xu Yi loses nine sons.

The winning Liu Junshi's face was not happy at all, but rather gloomy.

Because he knew that his victory was due to mastering too many chess patterns, and these chess patterns, just looking at Xu Yi's response, were clearly not studied.

In other words, his victory was based on the collective wisdom of a large number of skilled chess players.

Often, by relying on his formula, he can quickly grasp the situation and gain a huge advantage. With his ability, it should be easy to win a big victory.

But as a result, Xu Yi always struggled with each other until the end, resulting in a chaotic battle, and his originally great victory ended up being a tragic victory.

In the third game, Xu Yi lost four pieces.

In the fourth game, Xu Yi lost two pieces.

In the fifth game, Xu Yi lost half the piece.

In the sixth game, Xu Yi won the third prize.

The afterglow of the setting sun poured into the pavilion like drunken wine koji.

It was just another game. Liu Junshi stared at the chessboard with half a cup of tea. Finally, he dropped his pieces. He moved his eyes away from the chessboard and moved to Xu Yi's face. He looked at it for a moment and said in a deep voice, "How long have you been playing chess? To be honest, your style of playing chess is something I have never seen in my half-life of playing chess.". Any mature chess player, even if he can master all kinds of chess moves, will always have traces of his style as long as he implements it in the game. But I played nine games with you, but I still can't figure out your style. You are just like a beginner. For such a weird chess player, Liu was not unjustly defeated."

Xu Yi waved his hands and said, "Brother Liu's eyes are like a torch, and he can see through Xu's depth at a glance. To be honest, Xu really likes to read chess records and play chess with others, but this is the first time. Thank you Brother Liu for showing mercy and saving Xu's face."

After Xu Yi finished speaking, Liu Junshi's eyes bulged, his mouth opened so wide that he could swallow an egg, and he murmured, "There are really people in the world who are born to know..."

"Okay Brother Liu, the chess game has been played, is it time to drink? In order to visit your mountain gate, I have prepared a jug of good wine..."

With that said, Xu Yi took out a wine gourd and two jade cups. The wine was poured into the cup, and the spiritual energy was flowing. The strong desire that surged from the throat immediately turned Liu Junshi from the opposite Xu Yi's outstanding chess talent was brought out by the shock. He almost snatched the glass of wine and drank it in one gulp. The expression on his face immediately became wonderful. He suddenly stood up and roared, "Wonderful, wonderful, it is really a good wine!"
