Omniscient and Almighty

Chapter 893

What Xu Guangling was going to teach Xu Tonghui this time was no longer the secret method, but "miscellaneous learning".

What is Miscellaneous Studies?All projects that have nothing to do with their own majors are miscellaneous.For practitioners in this world, it is not practice, but miscellaneous learning.

After thinking about it, the first thing Xu Guangling taught Xu Tonghui was chess.

In the previous life, there were many kinds of chess skills, and the one that often appeared side by side with chess, which is worth mentioning, was actually Go.

However, Go talks about yin and yang, and at a higher level, it is chaos. If it is understood by analogy, it is related to the "Tao Te Ching" in the article.

If you just learn chess, there is no difference between chess and Go, they are all things that children can learn.

But if you want to comprehend or feel something from chess, then for a practitioner of Xu Tonghui's level, go is far inferior to chess.

The seven pieces of chess, the chariots, horses, artillerymen (soldiers) for offense, the elephant (phase) warriors for defense, and the general (commander) who stick to the camp.

General, just make it the sheriff of this life.

The higher one, Xu Tonghui didn't know.

Under Xu Guangling's command, Xu Tonghui returned to carpentry, cut and carved some small pieces, which are the same as the chess pieces in his previous life, and Xu Guangling asked him to carve two words on the first small piece of wood, "Jun Shou".

With the sheriff, there is a "steward" (shi) and a "guard" (elephant).

Then it was the turn of chariots and artillery.

In the previous life, there was an interesting saying about pawns, "Life is a game of chess, and I am willing to be a pawn. Although my actions are slow, who has ever seen me take a step back."

It sounds nice, but it's actually limited by the rules.

A pawn can only advance, not retreat.

Moreover, progress can only go further, the so-called following the rules is restricted everywhere.

On the chessboard, although there are many scenes where one pawn determines the outcome, more often pawns are just cannon fodder.

So the pawn, let's call it "condensation".

Xu Tonghui just broke away from this level.

Then, Pao is designated as "tongmai", and horse is designated as "opening up".

In fact, on the chessboard, it is difficult to distinguish between the horse and the cannon. The cannon wins the horse at the beginning, and the horse wins the cannon at the end, but it doesn't matter, they follow different chess rules.

Finally, it is the turn of the most important piece, the "rook".

Ten sons cold without a car.

As far as a country is concerned, this is an artifact of the country, similar to the nuclear weapons of the previous life.

Therefore, in the setting, the car is not a higher-level "entraining air", but directly defined as "ground level".

Once the pieces are engraved, the board is also engraved.

Although Xu Tonghui still didn't understand the meaning, looking at the small round wooden blocks engraved with the words "condensing Qi", "tongmai", "opening up" and "ground steps", as a cultivator, his heart was already full of excitement. Instinctive excitement arose.

"Uncle Xu, come, come, come."

Xu Guangling directed Xu Tonghui to sit opposite, and between the two of them, the chessboard was in place and the chess pieces were arranged.

In this life, there is no chess, and of course there is no word "chess". Xu Guangling simply didn't introduce what it is, just do it!

Simply say the rules, and then the two will play against each other.

The rules of chess are actually very simple, and with Xu Tonghui's current brain, memorizing these small rules is simply overkill, so even though it is the first time he plays this thing, he is still quite eager to try it, and really wants to compete with the opponent, so that the young master Look, I also have two brushes.

Of course the facts quickly taught him to be a man.

Xu Guangling didn't bully him too much, he just played ten games and then withdrew.

Although ten battles and ten defeats were suffered, Xu Tonghui was still in high spirits.

Xu Guangling was not in the mood to play more with a rookie, so he just said to him: "Uncle Xu, you can get other people to play. Well, this is a little thing, you can teach it, anyone can teach it."

Xu Tonghui's first teacher was Tian Hao.

Tian Hao just came back from Tongfulou, before he had time to catch his breath, he was dragged by Xu Tonghui to sit in front of the chessboard.

Xu Tonghui is smart, and Tian Hao is not a vegetarian.If you exclude the factors of cultivation, seriously speaking, Xu Tonghui is probably not enough to look at in front of Tian Hao.

Afterwards, Xu Guangling shook his head and smiled as he watched the two peck at each other from a distance.

In the afternoon, the two played chess until cooking time, and in the evening, after exercising late, the two actually turned on the lights and fought for a long time.

That energy.

It's like a little boy just getting a fun toy.

It's like a little girl just received a whole box of clothes and jewelry.

In the city, Xu Tonghui is very popular now, and invitations from everywhere have already filled his schedule.And within a few days, this new gadget almost swept the entire county.

County Sheriff's Office.

The county guard Xu Yishan played chess with Xu Tonghui, and the housekeeper Xue Shou.

Xue Shouyi played chess with his men again.

Not long after, even the little maids in the mansion started playing this game.

Tong Fu Lou.

Tian Hao brought this game into Tongfulou.

Also not long after, everyone in Tongfulou started playing this game.

The barrier to entry for chess is not high.

In other words, there is no threshold at all. In terms of getting started, the difficulty of getting started in chess will not be much higher than backgammon.

From Tian Hao to the chef, from the chef to the helper, from the helper to the helper, from the helper to the customer, soon, this scene appeared in many Tongfulou restaurants in the county:
"This condensate, can't you throw it away?"

"Tongmai, hit, hit over!"

"Wow... lying down in a big trough, the ground floor, the ground floor can also be suffocated to death?"

……

Juxing Building.

Not to mention the place where the Four Seas Gate is specially used to attract cultivators and gather guests for activities.

The little dolls who came here with their elders as young as a few years old, and those who are high-level or elders from the Four Seas Gate, are at least a hundred years old, and they either sit opposite each other, or in groups of three or four, or two or more. There is a big circle around the seat of people...

They are all playing chess.

This new thing that suddenly appeared, in this county town of Annan County, as soon as it appeared, it started to spread like a virus like a virus.

Almost everyone has running water.

Word of mouth is so good that it explodes.

Of course, some weak controversies also emerge in endlessly:

"Condensation... Condensation isn't that weak, is it?"

Saying this, most of them are condensed qi cultivators, some are still young, and some have gray hair, especially those of the old man's generation.

It seems to empathize.

Qi Condensation (little pawn) is struggling on the chessboard, and any chess piece of the opponent can be easily destroyed, which really makes those Qi Condensation practitioners uncomfortable.

Of course, this discomfort will not affect their love of chess.

However, their chess game instinctively deviates a little bit from the Earth in the previous life, that is, they pay special attention to the condensed qi, and they are not willing to part with any of the five condensed qi.

Others are more skinny.

That is, as soon as the chess game started, the player who started first used Tongmai (cannon) to beat the opponent's Kaiqiao (horse) continuously, which was regarded as an exchange of guns and horses.

Then, the game is over.

"Hey, how did I lose?!!!"

"It doesn't make sense!"

"It's a big profit in exchange for Tongmai to open up!"

Many enlightened practitioners were silent and thoughtful about this situation.

On the other day, Xu Yishan lightly picked up the chess piece engraved with "Governor", and asked Xu Tonghui with a smile: "Tong Hui, as a Sheriff, I can only walk within this small frame? Can I get out?"

This question stumped Xu Tonghui for a while.

However, the current Xu Tonghui is not the same Xu Tonghui in Qingshui City a few months ago after all, he just looked at the chessboard, and Xu Tonghui quickly responded: "Senior brother, you are the county guard, and you are also the prefect."

And this answer, for a while, actually made Xu Yishan fall into silence.
