New Times Inn

If you want to test a person's intelligence, you need to use some puzzle games.

Feng Qing turned the thing she was looking for with difficulty and blew the dust on it.

That's... a very nice Gobang board.

—It is also one of the classic children's intellectual enlightenment toys.

Although it looks gray now, but if it is cleaned up, it will look very domineering.

.

Afterwards, Feng Qing used tape to wrap the bracket around it and installed it again, but naturally no one would want this thing, so he left it in the inn.

In the past, there was not only Feng Qing as an employee in the inn, but also an eldest sister besides her, and that eldest sister had a child.

Feng Qing, who has no experience with cubs since childhood, also learned a little from this eldest sister.

For example, the eldest sister liked to bring her children to play Gobang with this board for a certain period of time.

It can only be said that Feng Qing was very poor at that time, and the eldest sister was also very stingy. The two of them forced their children to play backgammon, and let their children play every day with a face of unrequited love.

But I have to say that the eldest sister's child is really very smart. Although it is not clear whether this is the effect of backgammon, Feng Qing thinks that this thing should still have a certain effect on the development of intelligence.

Feng Qing silently took black and white pieces and placed a simple chess game on the chessboard.

This is basically a bonus question for sunspots.

The so-called double-three means that after a chess is dropped, there can be two straight lines connecting three pieces on the chessboard.

This game is too simple and the advantage of black stones is too great, so it is forbidden in some games.

Feng Qing was also a little guilty after the placement.

She thought to herself, did she look down on that person's IQ a little too much in such a chess game? It feels like being mocked.

However, Feng Qing turned to look at the time. It was already very troublesome just to find the chessboard and clean it, so it would be dark outside and the streets would be empty.

Feng Qing is always worried that that person will come in at any time, so she can only give up.

Turn on a monitor to see where that person is.

Feng Qing turned on the phone behind the chessboard, and was stunned.

This is a coincidence.

She saw that person just wandering here.

Feng Qing cleared her throat and said softly to the outside, "Come in."

…

Feng Xiluo was wandering outside, he was actually a little nervous.

He never had the habit of going back to the places he once stole, because it was too dangerous to do so.

However, just as Feng Xiruo was wandering, he suddenly heard a voice coming from the inn.

"Come in."

That moment...

Feng Xiruo's goosebumps rose instantly.

He turned his head sharply to the door of the inn.

This sound is…

He has been on the rivers and lakes for so many years, and this is the first time that someone can discover his existence without a sound.

Feng Xiruo has always been very confident in his own light work, which is why he dares to wander outside like this. However, this time it really caught him off guard.

When the only thing a person trusts is broken, that person often has a sense of insecurity.

Feng Xiruo was like this at this time.

His character itself is not good at facing conflicts, he is actually a very cowardly person.

Can it run?

Feng Xiruo was eager to try, but when he turned around, he suddenly stopped.

What if the shopkeeper rushes out directly?

And in case, that shopkeeper's Qinggong is better than him?

Feng Xiruo swallowed.

He had no choice but to think for a long time, and finally he had to bite the bullet and come to the inn.

The light in the inn was very weak, and only one candle was lit in the whole room.

In the middle of the inn, there is a huge table.

Feng Xiruo's pupils shrank.

This interior layout...is it specially designed to greet him?

Yes, it must be, otherwise there is absolutely no need to make it like this.

It seems that the other party came prepared today.

Feng Xiluo looked up and looked forward, sitting alone behind the table.

The man's hands were on either side of the chair, and a pair of covered eyes looked over.

The shadow cast a heavy shadow on her face, making her look inexplicably scary and gloomy.

Feng Xiruo has seen many powerful people on the rivers and lakes, but at this moment, he is still shocked by the aura of this person in front of him.

On the table in front of her, there was something covered with a cloth.

The thing is square, only the corners are exposed.

Although this thing was very tightly covered, Feng Xiruo still recognized what it was at a glance.

If you want to ask him why he can recognize it so quickly, then Feng Xiruo can only say that this thing has been carved into his bones long ago,

Even if he was dreaming about this thing, he would know what it was in a second.

…

It's a chessboard.

—Life and Death Villa, the first village in Jianghu.

If you just look at the name, it actually does not match the whole villa a little bit.

After all, although the previous owners of Life and Death Villa were highly skilled, and there were many people who had entered the killing, they did not like to kill indiscriminately, and there were even people like Feng Xiruo who never liked to kill.

The meaning of this "life and death" is definitely not as simple as it is literally.

In fact, these two words stand for "chess game".

The chess game is like a river and lake.

The owners of the Life and Death Villa are proficient in chess, which is as important as breathing for them.

Each owner of Life and Death Villa has to learn chess from a young age. They will be familiar with every piece on the chessboard. Slowly, this "chessboard" will change.

From a wooden chessboard to a stone chessboard, from a stone chessboard to a jade chessboard, and even the last... with the entire river and lake as a chessboard.

The owner of Life and Death Villa, no matter what his personality is, his ability to plan and plan is extremely superb.

Although Feng Xiruo looks a little unreliable, but really speaking, his temperament is definitely not below those of the previous village owners.

Did the shopkeeper guess his identity?

Feng Xiruo's heart froze.

Even if you guess his identity, what do you want to do with a chessboard here?

"Don't be afraid."

Feng Xiruo heard what the shopkeeper opposite said.

"I know you were the one who took that thing yesterday."

At that moment, Feng Xiruo felt that her whole body was numb.

He wanted to play the good industry standard of a thief like a conditioned reflex - when he ran away immediately, he suddenly heard the shopkeeper on the opposite side say, "I didn't want to blame you."

"But... let's take a look at this game first."

The tone of her words was very soft, but this softness was like a knife with a sharp edge, which made Feng Xiruo's scalp tingle.

"Do you like the thing you took yesterday? If you can solve that game, then I'll give you another one."

What? Feng Xiruo suddenly raised his head.

Feng Qing was looking at the man in front of him with a gentle smile.

Yes, that's right, it must be gentle and laugh, otherwise it will easily scare people away.

She has several lollipops in her pocket. Generally speaking, normal people will not be easily hooked, but if the opposite is a fool, it will be different.

Feng Xiruo looked at the shopkeeper opposite, her eyes narrowed gradually.

It was a surprise.

At that moment, his heart suddenly relaxed, and then there was a feeling of irony and laughter.

But since the shopkeeper wants to play with him... Then don't blame him for taking that jade from her hand.

The corner of Feng Xiruo's mouth showed a smile.

Who is he?

He is the owner of Life and Death Villa.

The most stupid decisions in the world are to compare swordsmanship with Sword God, compare sticks with Beggar Gang, compare hidden weapons with Tangmen, and compare chess with Life and Death Mountain Villa.

Feng Xiruo walked back and sat down in front of the shopkeeper.

Let him see why the shopkeeper has such determination and dare to compare such things with him.

Since his true identity has been guessed, Feng Xiruo simply stopped hiding and ripped off the nightwear mask on his face, then sat down.

Then, a confident smile appeared on Feng Xiruo's face.

Come on, let's see, what is the chess skill of the Villa of Life and Death.

Seeing the person who was lured by the lollipop, obediently walked to the table and sat down, Feng Qing couldn't help sighing.

This, this IQ doesn't look very good.

Yes.

Before Feng Qing lifted the cloth, her expression suddenly became a little dazed.

Which crew left this chessboard?

It's been too long to remember. However, Feng Qing remembered that the reason why the crew props bought a Gobang chessboard at that time was that the chessboard looked exaggerated and cheap.

Isn't the props of the crew just wanting high quality and low price, so although this chessboard is only a few dozen dollars, it looks very textured. It looks lighter.

So, what was this thing used for in the TV series?

Forget it, it doesn't matter, the crew has already thrown it away as trash anyway.

Feng Qing grabbed the edge of the cloth and lifted it away.

Come on boy! Win this game of Gobang and get your treasure!

…

Feng Xiruo still had a confident smile on her face until the cloth was lifted.

However…

When the cloth was lifted, the smile on Feng Xiruo's face suddenly froze.

The speed of this change can shock any Sichuan opera face-changing artist.

Even, Feng Xiluo couldn't help but stand up.

The chair was on the ground and was dragged out with a harsh sound.

He looked like he had seen a ghost.

What's wrong? Why does this person have such a terrified expression on the other side?

Feng Qing on the opposite side frowned slightly when she saw Feng Xiruo's expression.

This gobang is not difficult.

One thing to say, this expression made Feng Qing a little dazed.

She looked down at the chessboard in front of her that was only two moves away from winning.

…To put it a bit harsher, Feng Qing believes that some chimpanzees with normal intelligence can know how to play this game of chess after training.

Or is this stupid kid not understanding the rules?

Feng Qing couldn't help but say, "Don't be nervous, this game is not difficult at all."

"Look carefully, just make those pieces form a line and that's it."
