Chapter 40 forty

Tenth Tenyuan Temple Fang Guohuan saw that Master Ku Yuan wanted to face him with ten pieces in chess, so he couldn't help being surprised and said: "One person has ten pieces, but the number of hands is twenty, how can the winner be determined?" Master Ku Yuan said: "Those who are good at chess Look at the situation, although the outcome cannot be determined, the high and low can be determined, is the little benefactor interested?" Fang Guohuan knew that there were only ten pieces, and he could only lay out a set pattern to take advantage of the general situation. , Confused, I had no choice but to respond: "Junior, do your best." He took the ten black chess pieces, and suddenly "Huh", and found that the texture of these chess pieces is not ordinary chess pieces, round and moist, and it is very comfortable to hold in the hand. At this time, he couldn't help but exclaimed: "Good chess piece!" Master Ku Yuan said: "This is a pair of 'Arhat chess pieces', which is the top grade in chess." Fa Wu said aside: "It seems that Fang Xiao The benefactor's luck is good, those who can hold Arhat pieces to play chess are all masters in chess, and ordinary chess players can't get it." Fang Guohuan was secretly surprised when he heard this.

Fang Guohuan met two chess masters in one day, at this time he dared not follow the method of opening Zi Tianyuan's layout, but he made a chess piece at the lower right star position, Master Ku Yuan responded easily, Each has a general trend in the overall situation.When the two sides moved to the eighteenth move, Fang Guohuan couldn't help being surprised. Although the pieces on the chessboard were sparsely arranged by both sides, there were only a few white pieces, occupying the overall situation. No matter how his own black pieces were arranged, , is always covered in the white chess position and cannot be unfolded.Fang Guohuan was amazed, knowing that the opponent was a real master of chess, he could not lose his composure, thought for a moment, and placed the last chess piece in his hand.Master Ku Yuan was surprised at this time and said: "This child is really extraordinary. It is rare in the world to be able to walk out of such a chess game within ten children of the old monk." One son.When Fang Guohuan looked at it again, he was very surprised. Although the two sides played ten pieces correctly, White's chess is in control of the overall situation, and there are few flaws to be found, while his own Black's chess has shown two disadvantages.

Fang Guohuan was startled, and hurriedly stood up and said: "Master is a real expert in chess. I am lucky enough to meet you today. Please enlighten me." The technique is sublime, although it cannot be called the best in the world for the time being, you are the most talented chess player I have ever encountered in my life, I never thought that after decades of searching, I finally found the aura of chess in you today." While speaking. , Master Ku Yuan was a little excited.When Fang Guohuan heard about it, he couldn't understand it for a while.The monk Fawu said happily: "Congratulations, master. After years of searching, today I finally got my wish." Fawu then smiled at the bewildered Fang Guohuan: "Didn't the little benefactor want to go to Tianyuan Temple to learn chess from a teacher? The master is Tianyuan Temple. The abbot of Yuan Temple." Fang Guohuan was shocked when he heard this, and looked at Master Ku Yuan with mixed feelings for a moment, and he was stunned.Master Ku Yuan nodded at this time, and said happily: "I often travel around the world in order to find a child like you who has the roots of chess. Fate." Monk Fawu patted Fang Guohuan, who was a little overwhelmed by excitement, and said with a smile: "Why don't you meet Master soon, what are you waiting for?" Fang Guohuan woke up like a dream, and hurriedly bowed down and bowed in surprise: "Disciple Fang Guohuan, pay homage to Master." Tears welled up in his eyes.Master Ku Yuan happily accepted Fang Guohuan's gift of apprenticeship, and then helped him up: "It seems that the wish of being a teacher for decades is going to be fulfilled on you. It may be God's will to accept you as a disciple today." Then Pointing to the monk Fawu, he said: "This is your senior brother Fawu, and I will see you." Fang Guohuan hurriedly stepped forward and bowed, "Thank you for the introduction, brother, otherwise I don't know when I will see the master." Fawu said happily: "I didn't expect you to be chosen by the master. It is my good fortune to have a junior brother like you, and it is also a happy event for Tianyuan Temple."

Master Ku Yuan then asked about Fang Guohuan's life experience, and Fang Guohuan recounted his experience of being lost from home when he was a child and living in the rivers and lakes.When talking about the monk Zhishan in Fenglin Cottage, Master Kuyuan said in surprise: "Many years ago, Tianyuan Temple did come to a fellow monk named Zhishan, who left after losing a game of chess in the temple. He guided you here, he is really a caring person, a real chess player!" Only then did Fawu talk about the chess competition at Tielong Temple in Fengtai City. An expert outside the world, this time he came out of the mountain to make a name for himself in the world." Fa Wudao: "Then Li Ruchuan's chess skills are superb, and he can compete with senior brother. Even if junior brother Guo Huan does not mistakenly open his son Tianyuan, it will be very difficult. Beat him. It's a pity that although this person has a high level of chess skills, he is narrow-minded and has a sinister temperament. He is not worthy of our friendship. If the disciple did not rescue him in time, Junior Brother Guohuan might have been killed by him." The general passed by. I said it again.Fang Guohuan still had lingering fears at this time, and he said confusedly: "Master, I don't understand, Li Ruchuan's chess skills are superb, he has surpassed many disciples, and he beat me again in the chess competition, but why did he chase and kill his disciples?" People must see that you are young and good at chess, and that your future cultivation will surpass him in the competition, so you will be jealous and start killing. The so-called chess players will know if they are there. In that chess competition, even though Li Ruchuan beat you, But I feel that when playing against you, your chess strength is getting old, but you have the potential to advance thousands of miles. This person wants to be famous in the world and be the best in the world. How can he allow others to have a chance to surpass him in the future and compete with him for fame? Therefore, we must get rid of it first." Fang Guohuan heard it, shook his head and sighed: "Li Ruchuan's chess skills are unfathomable, and if I study hard for a few years, I'm afraid it will be difficult to catch up with him. Master Ku Yuan said: "Otherwise, the quality of chess is also the character of character. It is mostly due to the limitation of character. It is extremely difficult to improve one or two pieces every time. Li Ruchuan has practiced chess for many years. Although he has great achievements, he does not know this limitation. If you are invincible, there is no one else in your eyes. When you feel that you will skyrocket in chess in the future, and your potential is more than his, you will naturally have jealousy and evil intentions. This is because of his impure heart, and your chess strength will naturally decrease That's the limit." Fang Guohuan heard it, and admired Master Ku Yuan's incisive analysis.

At this time, Master Ku Yuan said again: "As far as the skills of the world are concerned, most of them are tangible learning. If they are extremely subtle, there is an ancient saying that 'playing the zither to attract the golden phoenix, and playing the zither to call ghosts and gods' will not create wonders. And go One is very wonderful, it is ever-changing, ghosts and gods are unpredictable, it has been listed as a fairy since ancient times, and it is respected as an elegant art." Master Ku Yuan then solemnly said: "As a teacher, you are good at chess, practice diligently, think that you have achieved something, and you will be able to achieve it all your life. I have seen countless master chess players, but it is a pity that even as a teacher, they still do not have the offensive and defensive momentum of laymen in chess, they cannot reach any level, and they are still confined to the art." Fang Guohuan was surprised when he heard it: "In the eyes of my disciples Come on, master's chess skills are already invincible in the world, is there a higher level of chess?" Master Ku Yuan said: "The chess skills are extensive, and there is no one who can be invincible for a while, but it is only on the chessboard, and It is a pity for chess players." Fang Guohuan said in surprise: "Master, what is the real chess state?" Master Ku Yuan said: "The way of chess should be based on the heart, don't be born. Wonderful realm, mutual wonders, and harmony of all things. Chess and heart are supreme, the realm of chess is the realm of heart, and the combination of the two is the real chess realm." Fang Guohuan said in surprise: "This kind of chess Realm should be another kind of feeling in chess, or a kind of highest cultivation, I don’t know how to achieve it?” Master Ku Yuan sighed and said: “This is the difficult problem that I have been struggling to solve in my life. Chess is an elegant art. It is based on enlightening the mind, enlightening the mind, and cultivating the temperament. If you are obsessed with winning or losing, then it is the next thing. ?”
