[Soul of Chess] The intrigue of the foxes

The author has something to say:

declare

Due to account problems, I committed suicide under the pen name of my original account. I transferred the article to my recovered contract account, and changed the pen name I used before. The deletion of the previous article has nothing to do with violations or plagiarism. Don’t be nervous. Specifically, it refers to the more than 200 people who read it. For the little angels who have read the text, of course, I don’t know if there are more people, thank you for your support.

"Is there anything you regret so far? Live it again to change it... huh?" The man with blond hair and black hair turned his head to look at the person next to him after reading the card, and saw the guy looking down The chessboard didn't pay attention at all, and the corner of his mouth twitched suddenly, and he stretched out a finger to poke, and poked it accurately on the itchy flesh of the opponent, making him bounce up and stare at him, before he smiled in satisfaction, "Don't Pretend you can't hear, the last time you checked your hearing."

Ta Yaliang, who is now known as the noble son of the chess world, frowned, looked at the person who was asking the question for a while, and then seemed to come back to his senses, turned his head and said softly: "Why do you always like these weird questions?"

"Strange? It's very interesting." Hikari Shinto fanned the paper between his fingers, tilted his head and thought for a while, "If I want to talk about myself, it's time to go. For example, the last time I went to China, I didn’t eat enough of the hot pot there, and as a result, I was called back by the chess academy just after the game, just for a new preliminary match, which made me mad.”

Ta Yaliang raised his eyebrows: "Didn't you go there by plane again later?"

Shindo Hikaru thumped the floor angrily: "But the coupon has expired!"

Taya Ryo: "..."

The bonus for winning a game is enough for how many times you can eat hot pot, and you are here for a coupon... I really don't want to talk to this idiot.

Shinto Hikaru poked at him: "What about you, what about you, I've said it all, you have one too."

Ta Yaliang replied simply and neatly: "No."

That's right, as a successful person who has won countless reputations, has been conferred a saint in the chess world, and married Bai Fumei, what is there to be unsatisfied, the desire that needs to be relived to be satisfied?

Hikaru Shinto's mouth twitched. Thinking about it for a while, this guy can be regarded as a master who is envied and hated by others in every sense. Apart from the title that he has not yet obtained, he probably has nothing to be dissatisfied with, let alone him. Not the greedy kind of guy.

It's just that such an answer is really boring, and of course Shinto Hikari is not satisfied with such a response: "It's okay to just break one, you are so boring!"

Ta Yaliang tilted his head and thought about it seriously: "Perhaps a little bit, that [sai] teacher, although I have borrowed your hand to play chess with him several times, but I have never met him, which makes me a little regretful. "

Jin Tengguang's eyes sparkled with tenderness: "Indeed, I miss him very much."

After that, he took another trip to the hot springs by chance. He was so drunk that he was dizzy and told the conversation to a certain man as if he was joking, and he didn't get a sneer from the other party unexpectedly. .

"Ask such a stupid question, do you want to imply that you have more love?" The hoarse voice revealed a bit of hot sexiness, just like old wine, making people want to stop.

Jin Tengguang snorted, his face was red, and he spit out a strong smell of alcohol when he opened his mouth: "Yu Qing? The topics people talk about are normal, you blame others for your own thinking, ah, ah, I understand, and you are still worrying about me Hooking up with your junior brother, tsk, am I the kind of bastard who would meddle in other people's families?"

"If you really let go, you won't be drinking with me to pass the time at this time." Ogata Seiji's eyes were no longer sharp as in the daytime, but they were a little more ambiguous because of the smell of alcohol, but His mouth was still as merciless as if soaked in poison, "Xiaoliang's child has a full moon banquet today."

Jin Teng's face froze, but he still fought back unwillingly: "Then why don't you go?"

"Work is different from your temporary transfer. My schedule has already been scheduled for half a year, so," Ogata Seiji smiled helplessly, but the helplessness still seemed to be somewhat smug, " I'm different from you, it's an established itinerary."

Shindo Hikaru was not fooled: "The itinerary can also be changed. After all, it is the birthday of your mentor's grandson. Xiaoliang should have sent you an invitation card early in the morning."

Ogata Seiji said disapprovingly: "Yes, and this situation can also be applied to you. Are you sure you will get a different answer if you ask me back after I answer?"

Shinto Hikaru stared at him for two seconds, then turned his head away: "Boring."

"Then what kind of answer is considered interesting?"

"..." Shindo Hikari looked down at the chessboard without saying a word.

The lights in the room were not turned on immediately, and the moonlight was very bright through the window, so you could see everything clearly. Intertwined black and white networks.

There was no eye contact or calling to each other. The two sat at both ends of the chessboard. The quiet atmosphere evokes a deep familiar scene in their minds, making their thoughts quietly return to an unforgettable moment.

Seiji Ogata took a sip of beer, pointed at the chessboard with his index finger and said, "I still remember that you participated in the activities organized by the monastery and stayed in a hot spring hotel similar to the one you are now. That time I played against you and I lost."

Shinto Hikaru was stunned, and shook his head after a while: "You were drunk at that time, your strength was compromised, and it was not fair for me to win." That game was Fujiwara Satoshi's last complete game, but it was a pity that the opponent lost the chain.

Well, now, he won't lose him.

Shinto Hikaru glanced at the beer can in the man's hand: "You still drink this brand after so many years, and you're not tired of it."

"There are some things that you will never get tired of." Ogata Seiji hiccupped and shook the jar in his hand, "So, even if I have to do it all over again, I will still play Go."

"What the hell?"

"That strange question of yours," Seiji Ogata pointed to himself, blushing and slapped the drinker, "This is my answer."

"Nothing new."

Seiji Ogata grinned, with the charm of a mature man in his smile: "And you."

"Ok?"

The man tilted his head, showing a wicked smile, staring straight at him, revealing the ferocity of a carnivore aiming at its prey: "It's very important to snatch the title of Honinbo from you or to get it first." interesting."

Shinto Hikari was not angry, but just glanced at him and said, "It's indeed a pity. If you are still a celebrity, I think it would be more interesting to grab the title from you."

"I will try my best to give you a chance. I will definitely win the celebrity battle."

"Wait and see."

At that time, this question was just used to pass the time and entertainment when I was free.

To this day, I don't know which great god in the sky is so boring that he messed up his natal chart and quietly changed his original peaceful life.

Dimly, I heard a few melodious birdsong, and the rustling of the branches shaking as the birds jumped on the branches. It was enough to imagine the lively scene of these cute little people jumping on the branches without opening their eyes.

However, speaking, living on the twentieth floor, it seems that I haven't heard such a sound for a long time. How did these little guys fly up without being afraid of lack of oxygen?

This little bit of curiosity was soon wiped out by the lingering spring sleepiness in his mind, Shinito Hikari stuffed his head into the pillow, and didn't care if he would suffocate to death, as long as he could continue to sleep anyway.

However, he never expected that not long after, a voice that had been with him for many years, nothing more familiar and disturbing than this, sounded above his head, causing his originally chaotic brain to explode.

I haven't used an alarm clock for many years, which bastard put an alarm clock next to my bed!

Hikari Shinto opened his eyes angrily, and patted the noisy thing above his head to silence.Not long after being relieved, I heard the door being opened, and then with a "swish", the curtains were pulled open, and the quiet darkness was pierced by the light. Feeling the glare of the sun, Shinto Hikari grabbed the quilt and lifted his head up without thinking. .

"Wake up, Xiaoguang, you're going to be late, but I set the alarm clock for you, and you dared to press it for me!" A familiar voice suddenly sounded above his head, and then the quilt was thrown off by someone, and his body felt cold. The thigh was slapped hard, the applause was very crisp and the butt really hurt, and the whole person was woken up immediately.

what's the situation?

Shinto Hikari sat up, then stared blankly at the woman who threw his quilt aside, it had been a long time since he had seen his mother do such a thing, she was half a hundred, why suddenly... so happy?

Shinto Hikaru rubbed the messy hair on his head, rubbed his face again, and finally became more energetic, then raised his face and asked: "I'm late, why are you late?" Scratching his neck, he yawned again, and then frowned, "I have no schedule today, no chess game, late wool!"

"What chess game, you're going to be late for school—" Shindo's mother yelled at him, pulling off the quilt that was holding him in her arms, "Hurry up, breakfast is getting cold." Waiting for someone to get out of bed After sitting up, she nodded and went downstairs.

Uncle Shinto Hikari, who is in his thirties, never thought that there would be a day when his mother would wake him up and shout to go to class, and he would still go to school...

I haven't woken up yet, or I've broken my brain, and the hallucinations are too real!

"What time is it, go to school, go to that school?" As a result, when he scratched his head, he saw his short and fat limbs. Hikari Shinto was stunned, and suddenly took a breath, jumped out of bed and jumped in front of the mirror. Just one glance, Immediately frightened silly by the figure in the mirror.

It turns out that his angular face has become as round as a goose egg, just like when he was a child... The height of the table is only up to his waist, and there is a very childlike schoolbag hanging on the back of the chair, which looks like it was carried when he was in elementary school Bag.

He pinched his face hard and gasped in pain. It really wasn't a dream... Is this the same as when he was a child?

This is rejuvenation! Fuck!

I want to relive my childhood, go to primary and secondary school again, take another vocational exam, and take part in hand-gathering competitions... just thinking about it for a while, I feel that I might as well sleep to death.

The door was still open, the cool breeze blew in, the curtains fluttered and covered his face, and there was a scent of washing powder that he used to smell when he was a child from the fabric that had not been changed for a long time, um, the smell of his mother. A smell not to be found in that empty house.

"The scenery is really the same as I remember." The bed was next to the window, and he climbed up the window to look out, and he could see a very beautiful scenery, which was the impression that he would never see again due to development and renovation many years later. The familiar scenery immediately brought back many childhood memories in him, and at the same time, he completely gave up.

Even if it's a prank reality show, it's impossible to change the renovated park back to its original appearance, and with my current appearance, it doesn't seem like something human can do, so...

A roar came from downstairs: "Guang, come down for breakfast, you're about to eat it!"

In an instant, all the sentimentality was roared away.

Shinto Hikaru shouted back lazily: "...I know!"

Shinto Hikaru resignedly pulled the schoolbag on the back of the chair to leave, when suddenly he heard the sound of a hard object falling to the ground. The object should be quite small, and the sound was very brittle when it hit the wooden board, and it didn't seem to be fragile.

Shinto Hikari lowered his head reflexively, and moved his gaze to the object. At first it was just a subconscious glance, but in the end he stared straight at it. After a while, he walked over to pick it up silently.

It was a very special and simple handmade necklace. The necklace was a red string, and the pendant was a round black chess piece wrapped in a silver hollow. It was an ordinary chess piece that was no different from an ordinary black stone, and the design looked a bit ugly. It's like a toy assembled by a child, but it's not a toy, but a symbol of extraordinary significance to him.

——As long as I hold the black chess, it is absolutely impossible to lose.

The smiling face of that person has been blurred, but his words are still deeply hidden in his heart.

In the last game of the Honinbo battle, he was the black stone, and he took away the last piece of the winning game to make this necklace, with Zuowei's name engraved on it as a commemoration.

So, what the hell did he really sleep back to his childhood?

The one who came to such a conclusion was also drunk.

Even though he is an adult mentally, Kezi is still a kid. In the end, Hikari Shinto couldn't escape the itinerary he should have for his age, and was driven by his mother to carry a schoolbag on the road with a look of lovelessness.

His childhood friend Fujisaki Akira was also walking on the side. When he saw Shinto Hikari, the little girl smiled childishly: "Good morning, Hikari."

Since Akira Fujisaki got married and moved, this seemed to be the first time he saw her again. The little girl had a youthful and childish look that he would never see again in adulthood, and her bright smile was full of foolishness.

"Morning." Shinto Hikaru replied weakly, thinking of going to elementary school again, he felt that he was not energetic, oh, no, he was already on the way, thinking that there would be many troublesome exams in the future, Immediately there is a sense of hopelessness in life.

Even though he was very nervous, he didn't notice the strangeness of Hikari Ido.

The little girl pursed her lips and smiled for a long time before gloating and asking, "We're going to take a history test this morning, are you ready?"

It's really a house leak and it rains all night.

Shinto said with a blank expression: "Of course, no." There are many bad news, the knowledge of elementary school has been returned to the teacher, and he must rely on multiple choice questions to score like in his previous life.

Anyway, it was Ome, Akira Fujisaki saw it at a glance, continued to cover his mouth to cover the corners of his grinning mouth, and continued to make up his knife: "If you fail the exam this time, the teacher said to find the parents."

The implication is that the mother must be angry, and the consequence of anger is that his pocket money will probably be gone.

If it was really Hikari Shindo when he was a child, his complexion would immediately collapse at this moment, but Hikari Shindo as an adult would naturally not take that little money seriously, so he just nodded perfunctorily: "Well, that's right." .”

Akira Fujisaki's eyes widened: "Hey, didn't you say you wanted to buy a new set of cards?"

The popular monster fighting card game is very popular among boys. There are many such cards in the schoolbag of Hikari Nine Teng’s home. In the past, boys would gather to play after class or after school.

"...don't play anymore." It was a waste of money and time, not to mention that from the perspective of grown adults, such a game is really meaningless.

However, money is still necessary, no matter how small a mosquito is, it is still meat, so take the exam!

His ambition was too easy, and he was soon slapped in the face.

When he got the exam paper, he looked down and was stunned.

Damn, why are the elementary school exam questions so rare that even adults can't understand them, it's a scam!

Apart from the multiple-choice questions in the history exam, there are really not many questions that can be written, and the knowledge learned is returned to the teacher.The teacher corrected the papers very quickly. He only finished the exam in the morning, and the results were issued in the afternoon, and he was definitely a failure.The teacher called Shindo's mother to be an educational guide, and said, "Don't let the child indulge in the game and not pay attention to study, they are almost in junior high school", and the pocket money for the next month will be deducted as a matter of course.

After Fujisaki knew this, he was still a little worried that Shinto Hikari would be depressed because of this, but he found that the other party's face was very calm, and he was a little surprised: "Xiaoguang, is it really all right?"

Shinto Hikaru, it's a pity that it's a woolen yarn, and that little money is not enough to buy a chess board.

Even though he is now in primary six and is about to enter junior high school, he still has plenty of free time. After class early, he packs his schoolbag and has to leave. When his friend invites him to play volleyball, he just declines with a smile. Playing with children feels like teasing children, but the most depressing thing is that the height of his eyes is not as high as those children's heads.

After leaving school, he ran like a dog chasing after him.

He suddenly remembered an extremely important thing.

In his previous life (let’s put it this way), when he was in elementary school, he was deducted pocket money due to the same situation, and then sneaked to the warehouse of his grandfather’s house to sell some old goods for money, so he accidentally met the very important person in his life. A person, or more accurately, a ghost.Although to a certain extent, Zuo Wei is indeed a wraith, but in essence, he is not scary at all, and his obsession can even be called cute.

If I really go back to the past instead of being immersed in a terrifyingly real dream, then I will definitely be able to meet him again——Fujiwara Sakai, a chess player of the Heian era living on the chessboard, an unrivaled chess player A thousand-year-old chess player.

Thinking of this, he couldn't hold back his excitement and anticipation.

However, the weather didn't respond to his mood very much. A large dark cloud rolled in from the sky, and it didn't take long to catch up with Hikari Shinto. Without the sun, everything seemed to be covered with a layer of haze. After a while, the rumble of thunder was heard. Lightning exploded in the clouds.

Shinto ran to his grandfather's house panting. Although he ran as hard as he could, his short legs were buried fast, but he still couldn't make it in time before the rain fell. When he arrived at the house, his clothes, schoolbag and hair were all wet up.He didn't care, and ran to the warehouse behind the house in this wet state.

As soon as he opened the door, the dust that hit his face immediately made him sneezed a few times. Looking at the scene of the dust on the walls and floors, and asking about the strong musty smell... How could he be so naive back then? Do you really think that there will be two or three worth of things in this place?

"It's really dirty." Hikari Shinto looked left and right in disgust while going up to the second floor, his wet feet leaving footprints on the dusty floor.

On the second floor, there are canvases everywhere, and the canvas is also covered with dust. His target chessboard should be under these canvases.

Sure enough, it didn't take long for him to see a chessboard in the corner with stains on the surface. The dusty appearance looked very pitiful. When he thought of the person who had lived on this chessboard for nearly a thousand years, he felt a little bit of a mess in his heart. Sour and sore.

"I'm here to pick you up...my friend."

When he touched the blood-stained chessboard, as expected, a familiar voice sounded in his mind, making his eyes turn red.

The chessboard began to glow slightly under his touch, as if some mechanism had been activated.

【Child, can you hear my voice? 】The voice was gentle and low, cautious, with a hint of uncontrollable excitement.

[Well, I can hear it. ] He responded in his mind, and at the same time he was relieved, his eyes were a little warm, and the rebirth was still a little bit beneficial.

[Thank God for letting me find you, I can play chess again...] There was a short sob from the chessboard, the board was illuminated with dazzling silver light, a white cloth suddenly appeared above the chessboard, and then the center of the white cloth slowly bulged, As if something had pushed it up, a hand with white nails and soft luster protruded from the bottom and grabbed the white cloth, and a handsome man with long hair and shawl appeared in front of him, dressed in a snow-white hunting suit, as if he had strayed into the mortal world The fairy god envoy, the tears in the corners of his eyes reflected even more pitifully, but when he straightened up and met Hikari Shinto, the pity had long since disappeared, and the dignity and majesty could not be violated. You can call me Zoe. 】

In his previous life, this guy didn't seem to react like this. Hikari was stunned for a while before replying: [My name is Hikari, you can call me Hikari. ] Little did he know that Sawei Fujiwara would introduce himself so solemnly because Hikari Shinto's reaction was so unusual.

【Okay, Aguang. 】Purple eyes fluttered a few times, Fujiwara Sawei still couldn't restrain his curiosity and asked, 【Why aren't you surprised at all? 】It is not the first time he has channeled psychics, but it is the first time he has seen a child who can be so calm and self-sufficient in front of him. He is so calm at this age, and his mind is extraordinary.

Shinto Hikari told him about his past life and his past without much hesitation, and he just smiled at the shock shown by Sato Fujiwara: "You see, you can travel through the millennium to the present, and I can't live again Once?"

Fujiwara Sawei was stunned for a while, but he quickly accepted the fact and was even more happy.

The person possessed by him can play chess, which is really great!What kind of Saigao is reborn!

Realizing that his reaction was too excited, he raised his sleeve to cover his face. After he straightened out his emotions and regained his composure, he put down his hand, lowered his eyes solemnly, and nodded politely to Shindo Hikaru: [Please let my lord, Mr. Go. 】

"Of course it's okay." Shindo Hikaru naturally wouldn't disagree, and while sorting out the things he messed up in the warehouse, he said, "Go down later and ask grandpa to borrow the chessboard, oh, and call home first." It would take close to an hour at the earliest to play a game of chess, and before that, I had to tell this old antique the rules of modern games.

【Okay, okay. 】It is enough to play Go.
