Pinnacle

Braised pork, scallion-stirred mutton, steamed sea bass, and vegetable dishes are potato shreds and vinegared cabbage. To Li Zhen's surprise, there are old Beijing snacks and candied fruits.

The dishes on this table had everything from fresh to salty to sweet, which almost made Li Zhen's eyes pop out, and the dishes were full of appearance, and the taste was not fancy.

Ordinarily, Li Zhen has been outside for such a long time, because of the Chen's Cup, his net worth has doubled, and the food and accommodation must be good, but Li Zhen is like he hasn't eaten for several days, and he is ravenously sweeping the table. on the meals.

While stuffing it into his mouth, he muttered vaguely: "It's delicious, your son is good!"

Li Yizhi: "..."

Chen Jing didn't say a word. His purpose of "pleasing" the other party was achieved. It seems that Li Zhen and Li Yizhi have many similarities. type of abduction.

Chen Jing picked up a lot of vegetables and meat with chopsticks and put them into Li Yizhi's bowl, and said while picking up: "Master, use your chopsticks too."

Chen Jing was sandwiching it, and Li Zhen said in a very unresponsive way: "Pinch less and less."

Li Yizhi is so thankful that he can't see it, otherwise he must be very embarrassed to see his master's embarrassing appearance, at least now he can hide his ears...

Li Yizhi was afraid that Li Zhen had eaten all of them, so he fumbled to pick up the chopsticks, and also picked up vegetables for Chen Jing. He picked up the food very accurately, and he would not lose his mind. He precisely picked up a piece of braised pork and put it into Chen Jing's bowl.

In fact, the reason is very simple, because Chen Jing is a very rigorous person, and also a very considerate person. The meat and vegetable soup and rice will be placed in a fixed place, so that it is convenient for Li Yizhi to eat, so as not to be inconvenient to pick up vegetables when he cannot see.

Chen Jing looked at the meat in his bowl, and couldn't help but relax a little with his stern face.

Chen Jing has a pair of peach blossom eyes, and when he smiles, he is really pretty and curved, but he doesn't smile often.

When Li Zhen saw his eyes, he was stunned for a moment, and then said: "I thought you couldn't laugh, you have a pair of peach blossom eyes, be careful when you grow up to attract romantic debts."

"Master..."

Li Yizhi wanted to wipe his face helplessly, and said: "Xiao Jing is only ten years old, don't teach him bad..."

"Ten years old." Li Zhen muttered while pulling the rice into his mouth, "Ten years old is not young, and I have a fixed age at ten years old."

In fact, the speaker has no intention, but the listener has the intention. Chen Jing has a strong nature and is always unwilling to lag behind others. This is especially true in Go, after all, this is what he likes.

Perhaps it was because of his tutoring since he was a child. His father objected to Chen Jing learning Go because he wanted him to inherit the family business. The Chen family business can only be inherited by direct descendants, and Chen Jing has only one older sister. High hopes.The grandfather's words at home are very important. Although the grandfather does not object to Chen Jing's hobbies, he always believes that no matter where the Chen family's children are, they must be top-notch, otherwise they would rather not do it.

All kinds of pressure have made Chen Jing reticent since he was a child, and he is easy to be calm and calm like ordinary children, and his emotions and anger are invisible. Still can't help but worry.

Li Zhen was ten years old, and although he was a genius in the Go world, there was no shortage of geniuses in the chess world. There were very few late bloomers, and there were not five in total.Chen Jing is ten years old today, and will be 11 years old after the Spring Festival. He has never been able to surpass the hard-edged chess king in front of him.

Chen Jing has never been disappointed with himself. He always does things with a well-thought-out plan and strategizing, just like he guided various cars from Nanjing alone, and even went to Beijing to learn chess in a truck. He is sure that he will be able to do it. arrive.

However, this time was different. He wanted to surpass Li Zhen, but lost at the starting line, which was irreparable.

Chen Jing was not in a good mood, and Li Zhen ate most of the dishes on the table, feeling very satisfied, and patted his slightly bulging belly indecently.

When he was full, Li Zhen naturally wouldn't wash the dishes, and Chen Jing wouldn't let Li Yizhi do the dishes, so he resigned himself to tidying up the table, wiped it clean, and went to the kitchen to wash the dishes.

When Chen Jing came out of the kitchen, she saw Li Zhen leaning against the door frame of the hall, as if the night breeze was blowing again, but the night breeze in the twelfth lunar month was a bit cooler.

Seeing him, Li Zhen smiled and said, "Boy, do you want to play a game of chess?"

Chen Jing did not reject him, but nodded calmly.

The two of them set up a chessboard in the main house, with Chen Jing holding the black and Li Zhen holding the white.

Chen Jing is a beginner, young, and has no professional rank, while Li Zhen is a newly released chess king, the first chess player to defeat Japan's nine-dan proud chess player. The disparity in strength between the two is naturally evident.

But even so, Chen Jing refused to let Li Zhen post it to him.

This made Li Zhen look at him with admiration. Perhaps in the eyes of many people, playing chess professionally and amateurly, amateurs should not post. appetite.

Li Yizhi's chess style is crisp and sharp, while Li Zhen's chess style is even crisper than his, as if a gust of wind swept away fallen leaves, and they were completely surrounded in the blink of an eye.

The master's chess moves are thick, just like calligraphy. Whether the writing is good or not depends on whether the penetrating power penetrates the back of the paper.

Beginners often kill the big dragon, or capture each other's stones, and masters generally do not kill the big dragon. Like Li Zhen's replay before the meal, it was also because of white's miscalculation that the game ended. Let black chess catch the big dragon and make a painful conflict.

In Go, the big dragon is often a relatively cumbersome existence, because it has a lot of involvement and is not yet alive. Once caught by the opponent, it will hurt the left and right.

Li Zhen has a strong sense of life and death. Although the chess style is fierce, he moves quite thickly, which makes Chen Jing feel powerless by surprise.

In less than an hour, Chen Jing was defeated.

Although the result was a bit horrible, Li Zhen was still very satisfied with Chen Jing, because Chen Jing was not impetuous, and even if he knew he was going to lose, he would finish the last move.

Calmness is an essential psychological quality for playing chess.

Moreover, Chen Jing's sense of chess is very good. Although Li Zhen is not the person with the best sense of chess that he has ever seen, he is considered a genius among his peers.

In fact, the one with the best sense of chess, except for Li Yizhi, is not the second choice. This is what Li Zhen is happy about. No matter what the reason is, Li Yizhi is willing to pick up the chess pieces. A piece of rough jade can show his own value, which makes Li Zhen feel happy .

Although Li Zhen was very mean when playing chess, he was not mean. He pointed out several miscalculations by Chen Jing and asked him to do more life-and-death problems and practice long chess.

Li Zhen's explanation is very unique. It turns out that the thinking and amateurism of a master are just a layer of window paper, and it becomes transparent immediately. It's not that Chen Jing can't think, but that the direction of his thinking is deviated.

Chen Jing wrote down the score, and annotated a lot of words next to it, so as not to forget, it seemed very serious.

Li Zhen was sleepy after eating too much, and it was also because he had just returned from a trip, so he went back to sleep after playing chess.

Li Yizhi told Chen Jing a few details. After all, Li Yizhi and Chen Jing had been together for a long time, and he knew Chen Jing's way of thinking and chess playing style, and reminded him of some points that Li Zhen didn't mention, but he easily overlooked.

It was getting late, and Li Yizhi had a regular schedule, so he was going to sleep too.Chen Jing went to boil some water for Li Yizhi to wash, the weather was too cold, and it was even colder in the courtyard, so we couldn't always take a bath in winter.

While washing up, Li Yizhi heard Chen Jing let out a slight gasp, and couldn't help asking, "What's wrong? Is it hot?"

At first he thought it was because the water was too hot, but Chen Jing replied calmly, "Oh, it's okay, I didn't pay attention to boiling the water just now, and touched the pot."

"Is it bubbling?"

"It seems to be up."

Li Yi subconsciously pulled his hand over, but immediately realized that he couldn't see it, and said, "Wash it with hot water if it bubbles."

"Think about the chess record and forget it."

Li Yizhi turned on the tap, asked Chen Jing to take a shower, and went to the drawer of the main house to find medicine.

He remembered that when he was very young, when he first came to the courtyard, because he was blind, he often tripped over thresholds, flower pots, and so on, and there were scars everywhere.

Li Zhen asked for Huang Yaoshui to rub on him. After applying it and blowing it on, the pain disappeared immediately. Because he often fell down, Huang Yaoshui became a regular wound medicine at home.

Li Yizhi tossed about in the room for a long time, causing things to fall out of the cabinet, but in the end he couldn't find the yellow medicine, so Chen Jing came in and asked him what he was looking for.

Li Yizhi took a cotton swab and dipped it in some liquid medicine, and handed it to Chen Jing to wipe it on, fearing that he would hurt him without knowing anything.

Chen Jing didn't take it seriously, although it was very painful, and the blisters seemed to burn when they touched hot water, but how could a boy be afraid of pain, if he said it, he would be laughed at, Chen Jing didn't take it seriously.

Li Yizhi even leaned over and blew on him, the blisters were cool with medicine, and the pain was relieved immediately.

From childhood to adulthood, no one cared whether Chen Jing hurt or not, and no one would know. Although Li Yizhi didn't say anything about his reaction, he was moved in his heart.

It was as if the stagnant water was stirring up ripples, although they were light, they could not calm down for a long time.

These human things are things that Chen Jing can't get in touch with after spending his whole life at home and studying all his life.

Coming to Beijing from Nanjing, his life not only has the only Go in his life, but has become full and rich, with the red walls of the old alleys, the gray tiles of the courtyard, the enthusiasm of the neighbors, and of course Li Yizhi, the first A person who treats him well, let Chen Jing know that in addition to utilitarianism, there is also kindness, and there is no need to be so defensive in many cases.
