Asking hexagram 20 taels

Chapter 5 Reversi

God sticks generally believe that dreams have a certain predictive effect, and so does Tang Yuan.However, he also believes that the dream tonight may also be caused by too much trouble today.

After all, although he has human life on his hands, he is doing harm for the people. He has never regretted it, nor has he ever been afraid.

But no matter what Tang Yuan thinks, judging by the wind direction of the river and lake in the past two days, I am afraid that there will be unrest. The most important thing is the thing that Wuwei Pavilion came to ask tonight.

People from the Wuwei Pavilion came to ask, and what they said was mysterious and mysterious, but it was nothing else. Even children over three years old in Jianghu had heard of it, but no one took those legends seriously.According to the legend, this thing can judge people's fortune and misfortune, and it is two points better than the book of life and death of the Lord of the Underworld, but there is no Lord of the Underworld in this world, so naturally there is no such strange thing.

Tang Yuan took out a large wooden box from under the bed, and patted the dust on it.

This box looks like it has been around for some years, and the style is very simple. There is a long and deep knife scar on the box, which runs obliquely from the top to the bottom, as if it was blocked by someone holding the knife. It can still be seen At that time, the knife was so fierce that it seemed to split a person in half.

He put his hands on both sides of the box, lifted the lid of the box with a little force, reached in and took out the things inside.The box looked miserable from the outside, but the contents inside were still intact.

A chessboard with black and white pieces.

This chessboard is made of peach wood, and Tang Yuan chose the wood. Peach wood is not a good material for making a chessboard, but Tang Yuan saw it as a magical material to suppress evil, so he forced his master to cut down the peach tree in the Peach Blossom Valley, and was killed by the peach blossoms. Disciple Gu chased and hacked for half a month before he made such a chessboard.The chessboard was sharpened by Tang Yuan one by one, and it took him several months of work at that time, so it is not very precious, but fortunately he used it smoothly.

The chess pieces were given by an old friend, so the value of this chess set lies in the chess pieces.There are 180 black and white chess pieces each, and the white chess pieces are made of high-quality Hetian jade, which is translucent and clear, and warm to the touch, like suet.What's even better is Heizi, Tang Yuan still can't tell what it is made of, but it's cool and comfortable to hold in his hand.

Tang Yuan pulled out the chess set that he hadn't used for a long time.It is true that it has not been used for a long time. He has not borrowed foreign objects for a year or two.

At that time when he was learning the art of divination and calculation, other people used compasses and other fetishes, but he was the only one who took a fancy to a chessboard placed in the master's yard. Facing the chessboard, the one on the left studied it and the other fiddled with it. .The master never talked about him, only taught him according to his interest.

In the final analysis, divination is still a calculation, these things are auxiliary, and there is a great ability to pinch one's fingers to count as destiny, so you don't have to stick to the form.

Tang Yuan had a special liking for the chessboard in the yard, but when the master drove him out of the mountain gate, he burned the chessboard in the yard in front of his face, and he was only allowed to go down the mountain with his own things.

Last year, the master took his mother to travel to Nanyang, which was even more extreme. He simply set fire to the thatched hut where he usually lived in the valley.

They are fortune-tellers, they can count God’s will but not destiny, and people can’t count themselves. The master has already left a message: "When I die, you burn all my things, don't keep a single thing, I'll give you a piece of paper." Live a clean life, and die clean and tidy.”

Tang Yuan kept the chessboard he played with him all the time after he left the teacher. He is a master of art and soon no longer needs the chessboard as an assistant, but he still has to ask for the chessboard when he encounters major events, so he can rest assured.

He put the chessboard in the middle of the yard, looked at the sky, it must be five watch, and it was almost dawn.

He washed his hands, bowed to the east twice, and set up a chess game in front of the stars in the sky.

Tang Yuan casually grabbed a handful of chess pieces from the side, regardless of whether they were white or black, and scattered them all on the chessboard. The jade chess pieces fell on the chessboard with a clang, and the sound was as crisp as pearls falling on a jade plate. Nice to hear.

When the last chess piece was settled, the white jade chess piece was still spinning slightly on the chessboard, as if rising from the ground, the wind carried a little dust from the ground and swept Tang Yuan inside.A piece of clothing he was wearing when he got up was blown up by the wind, and the hem of the clothing hit him in the face, but Tang Yuan didn't even bat an eye.

What he saw was no longer his own yard, there was a game of chess in front of him, and now he was the one watching the chess.

People get a glimpse of God's will in the chess game.

Black chess and white chess, you have one hand and the other, and no one is willing to give in. Tang Yuan felt that he saw the flying sand and stones on the chessboard.

Soon, soon, see the end soon.

At this time, the situation on the chessboard has been established, and it corresponds to the celestial phenomenon that Tang Yuan laid out before, and only one piece is missing, which is enough to complete the final situation.

At that time, he will be able to carefully study the chess game with the chessboard in hand.

But at this moment, just when the last piece was about to fall, Tang Yuan saw a bolt of lightning strike, and the blue-purple thunder fell straight down with the power of the sky, striking the chessboard.

Broken, broken, my stuff.

Tang Yuan thought to himself, isn't this a coincidence, if you don't strike sooner or later, I'm about to see the result, you give me a thunder.

He stretched out his hand to go up to protect him, but with a click, the thunder fell, breaking off Luozi's hand, and blue-purple lightning passed through Tang Yuan's body and landed on the chessboard.

The moment the lightning fell on the chessboard, countless peach branches protruded from the chessboard, like countless human hands praying to the sky, black and white chess pieces were pushed everywhere, and gorgeous peach blossoms bloomed on the fingertips of the human hands.

The last piece of the chess game did not fall, and Tang Yuan also got out of that mysterious state.

Look at the chess game he played again, because he went up to defend in a hurry, he swung most of the pieces, only half of the chess pieces remained.

Forget it, it looks like God told me not to.

Tang Yuan was about to pack up his things, when he raised his sleeves, a missing black spot fell from between his fingers, and this fall happened to land on Tianyuan.

Tang Yuan was shocked all over, looked at this chess piece again and again, and finally put away the chess game.

Tang Yuan didn't solve this chess game. First, there was only half of the game left, and it took a lot of effort to solve the endgame. Second, the last piece fell on Tianyuan.

Tianyuan is a relatively special position in Go, or it is endowed with a lot of special meanings because of its position in the middle of the board.

Chess players who know how to play chess will not fight for the position of Tianyuan, with golden horns and silver borders, but they still have to fight for eight stars if they do not compete for Tianyuan, and they will always fight for the position in the end.This is the way of chess, and it is also the way of being a human being. No matter whether it is friendly or hostile on the surface, in essence it is contention.

The prosperity of the world is for profit, and the hustle and bustle of the world is for profit.

Competing with the sky, competing with others, some people feel exhausted and some people find it extremely enjoyable.

Bird Clothes Lane in Beijing.

This is the place with the highest net worth in the entire capital except the imperial palace.

People say that the base of the imperial city is full of rich and noble families, and that one brick can yield three fifth-rank officials, and one seventh-rank official will be spared.Then this Wuyi Lane is the golden nest in the root of the imperial city. This is the place where the first and second rank officials of the court live together, and some princes and grandchildren also set up houses here.

Among them, the one located in the center is the house bestowed by the first emperor when the eldest princess of the dynasty got married.During the period, the carved beams and painted buildings are very imposing. The main entrance is two big red doors. The inscription "Tang Mansion" on the door is written by the calligraphers of the dynasty. The iron painting and silver hook are extremely strong.The rockery and flowing water inside the door are very delicate, and there are two long corridors on both sides, leading to the main hall around the wall.

The structure of the Tang Mansion is a bit special. This is because the mansion was originally a princess mansion given to the eldest princess by the first emperor. Naturally, it is exquisite and beautiful, and most of it is the beauty of a women's boudoir.Later, Tang's father was recruited as a son-in-law and joined the eldest princess's mansion.The Tang family is a first-class family in Beijing, and it’s fine to marry a wife into a family, but the name of the mansion must not be the Princess’s Mansion anymore. It happened that the great Confucian Xu Jinjiang came to Beijing to study, so the Tang family asked Master Xu to give him a letter. Write down two large characters "Tang Mansion".

After Tang Yuan was born, the eldest princess discussed with Tang's father to rebuild the Tang mansion. The front yard still maintained the style of the eldest princess mansion, and the back yard made room for Tang Yuan's play and the Tang family ancestral hall.It's just that the young masters from other aristocratic families who came here to play with Tang Yuan got confused when they entered the front yard, and finally had no choice but to come in through the back door or simply climb over the wall.

The father-in-law who often came in to announce the decree when the first emperor was alive also had some insights on this. Every time he entered the Tang mansion, he had to be led in by a maid, otherwise he would accidentally go the wrong way.

"Master, madam, there are people coming from the palace." A maid who looked very smart walked into the front hall and said to the master of the Tang family who was seated.

"Please come in quickly." Tang Yunqi stood up from his seat and walked quickly to the entrance of the hall, ready to receive him.

A servant brought in a chubby father-in-law from the door. This father-in-law looked a bit like a tumbler with his head turned upside down. His fat body was supported by a pair of small feet, and he wobbled as he walked, which was quite ridiculous.But no one in the entire capital dared to show his intention of laughing at him.

The great eunuch Li Hezhong is a celebrity around the emperor, and the chief eunuch is in charge of the eunuch. Even the three court elders have to give him three points of courtesy, let alone Tang Yunqi who has no real power.

"Master Tang, how dare you trouble yourself to greet him personally?" Eunuch Li said to Tang Yunqi who came out to meet him with a smile on his face.

"Eunuch Li was joking. Since Eunuch came here for something important, how could Tang not take it seriously?"

"Our family brought the emperor's oral order." Eunuch Li caught Tang Yunqi who was about to kowtow to accept the order, "Your Majesty Tang, you don't need to be too polite, the emperor said it, and you don't need to disclose the secret oral order."

"Then please, Eunuch Li."

"By the sage's orders, Tang Yuan, the grandson of Tang's patriarch, will enter the palace to have an audience in half a month." Eunuch Li took the silver bag stuffed by the servant with a smile, weighed it twice, and added with satisfaction, "Master Tang, the sage said it, you know Mr. Tang wandered around the rivers and lakes and couldn't return in time, so he gave half a month to return. After half a month, it will be the Mid-Autumn Festival. People from the palace will come to welcome him, and Mr. Tang's family will also go to the palace for a banquet. According to my servant, if Mr. Tang can use it, Tang The family is going to have another high court official."

After seeing off Eunuch Li, the parents of the Tang family smiled wryly at each other.

The form of the Tang family is a bit complicated.The Tang family is the leader of several big families in Beijing. Tang Yuan's father, Tang Yunqi, is the head of the Tang family. However, since the previous dynasty, the power of the family has declined and they have to rely more on the imperial power.Although Tang Yunqi has the name of a court official, he has no real power and is just a false position.Tang Yuan's mother was the eldest princess who was the most beloved by the late emperor, and she should be loved by all, but after the death of the first emperor, the crown prince came to power, and her attitude towards the elder sister was very delicate.After Tang Yuan was born, this subtlety became very obvious.

She hid thousands of times, but she still didn't escape, and in the end she still came.

Tang Yunqi looked at his wife's terrified face, and silently embraced her in his arms: "It's okay, Yuan'er survived a catastrophe, and his future blessings are still there. He is very smart, and he will be fine."

At the same time, a carrier pigeon took off from a small courtyard in the capital.The homing pigeon got rid of the hand of the pigeon-keeper, pierced through the approaching night, and flew towards the distant sky like a white ghost.
