beg for chivalry

[Volume three and three written as black]

([-]) Heart of immeasurable compassion

------------

The soul is broken, and all kinds of resentment are left in the air.

The love is deep and the dream is lingering, but there is no cure.

……

"I'm dying."

One day, Young Master Jin suddenly said this.

That night they sat in the Guangyuan Inn.Perhaps out of a sudden interest, Jin Wu ordered the staff to clear away the groceries of the porters in the yard.The crowd set up a long wooden table, put several jars of Baren sake on it, and lit red paper lanterns at the four corners of the courtyard.A group of people sat in the courtyard drinking wine and admiring the moon, very happy.

It has been more than a few days since the Qianjiazhuang Heroes' Meeting, and all the dead and injured villagers have been rescued.Everyone thought that Young Master Jin did this to reward Zuo Sanniang and the old man Zhu who had been working so hard. They didn't expect that this guy would suddenly say such a dejected remark when others were chatting with each other.

Hearing this, others rushed to see him.But seeing Jinwu holding the wine glass in one hand and resting his chin in the other, he was looking up at the moon sleepily.He usually wears a golden brocade shirt, as if he wants to show off how rich and rich he is, but today he is wearing a black and white shirt like a Confucian scholar, plain and simple.Probably because of drinking, his sharp eyes showed a faint drunken blush.

Seeing that everyone was silent, Jin Wu tossed the wine glass, frowned and said again. "Don't you understand? Do you want me to change the word? You don't have much life left?"

He drank a lot of alcohol today, at this time he had already drunk several glasses, his face was already flushed.Although this man can drink quite well, he showed a more indulgent and frivolous appearance than usual after a while, which made Sanniang sigh and shake her head repeatedly.

"Understood, I understand, of course I understand." The old man Zhu also smashed the wine jug in his hand on the table with a "bang", he was even more drunk, and he would spit out a cloud of wine when he opened or closed his mouth.Just listen to him laughing. "But the little girl of the Jin family, the old man doesn't believe this, and I want to make a bet with you! You said that you don't have much time, so will the King of Hades come to seduce your soul first, or take the old man's life first?"

The old man pushed the wine jar with a smile. "Here, the next sip of wine belongs to the one who walked away quickly."

Jin Wu squinted at him, took the wine jar and took a big gulp.

That's all, he wiped his mouth and said. "You are old and immortal, don't fight with me."

Hearing this statement, the old man Zhu already understood most of it.He glanced at the Golden Crow, but he couldn't see anything unusual about this person compared to usual, not to mention that he was in a sick state, and even the sharpness in his expression was not reduced by half, he really looked like someone who was about to die Sick child?But Jinwu didn't seem to be joking, and it didn't look like a lie.

So the old man laughed. "You look sleepy, the old man thought you were going to die long ago." The implication was to tease Young Master Jin's gloomy brows and eyes, and his brisk manner of smiling without words.

"You think I like this face?" Jin Wu sneered, and pulled the wine jar over again.

At this moment, Sanniang poked her head over and interjected lightly. "The young master doesn't like it, but I do."

Her eyelashes fluttered, showing a little infatuation.It's strange to say that her young master has never trimmed his appearance, and the pair of Mobi eyes with raised canthus under his messy hair look quite sinister, coupled with a ferocious scar under his eyes, just one glance can scare a woman to death Heartbroken.But in Sanniang's eyes, this person is as agile as the sky, calm as the east wind and cold, and he is the most unattractive person in the world.

Looking around, the young servant was nowhere to be seen, the old man Zhu asked. "Where's the little baby surnamed Wang?"

Jin Wu tipped his toes, picked up the wine glass on the ground and held it in his hand, and said casually while pouring the wine. "Still digging the grave, I won't be able to come back for a while."

"Could it be that you didn't want him to hear...you said it at this moment?"

Jin Wu shook his head. "There are too many things I don't want him to hear, this one is right."

"Very good!" The bamboo old man laughed. "Then it's enough to say enough at this time! Baby of the Jin family, if you want to take care of the funeral, you must have a share of the old man. Where is your 'Liuhuaxiang' good wine buried in the courtyard? Be sure to tell the old man!"

Before Jin Wu's eyebrows twitched, Zuo Sanniang also nodded at the corners of her eyes with a handkerchief, and pretended to cry. "Young master, last year you promised to give me a golden flower hairpin and a pair of jade pendants. If you go to the underworld, maybe you will bring these two things to me from the underworld?"

The old bamboo man counted with his fingers and laughed straight: "'Yuanyangyue' and 'Bashanqing', such good wines are left in the house and no one drinks them, why don't you let me get drunk! Of course, on the anniversary of my death in the coming year I will definitely pour a cup on your grave, little baby, so don’t worry.”

Zuo Sanniang put away her handkerchief, smiling like a flower. "If the young master is in a hurry to reincarnate, I don't have to entrust the comb to me. It's just that San Niang heard that there is a good master in Jinling City, and the flower tins he cut are very exquisite..."

Hearing that they were all talking about property, Young Master Jin, who was about to lose his family property before he died, finally showed a little anger.He gritted his teeth tightly, let out a few snorts like a sneer, and finally suppressed the anger between his brows, and said arrogantly. "You can take whatever you want, just don't take my coffin board."

Sanniang and old man Zhu got together and whispered in shock: "It's broken, it's broken, the young master's soul has been hooked! Why don't you get angry now?"

"Well, according to what this old man sees—a person who is about to die speaks well. That's exactly what he said."

"Master, is he really going to die?" Sanniang asked the old man with tears in her eyes.

The old bamboo man pursed his lips and smoothed his beard. "I'm afraid I won't survive the fifth watch."

Jin Wu, who was listening to what they said, was really dizzy with anger at this moment, and finally couldn't help but said angrily. "I'm not dead yet, but I'm going to be pissed off by you!"

Seeing him glaring at him, the old and the young just burst out laughing.The old bamboo man patted his legs and said, "That's right. The old man saw that you were lifeless before, not like a living person, but now you are finally a little angry."

This anger is not that anger.Jin Wu was almost so angry that he grinned at the two of them, and he was able to recover after taking a deep breath.

Everyone sat quietly for a while, and the courtyard was silent for a while, only the rustling sound of the paper cage being stirred by the night wind.

At this moment, Sanniang suddenly asked in a trembling voice. "Is...is that so?"

"What's the good of lying to you?"

Jin Wu said, but he seemed indifferent.

The girl suddenly grabbed his sleeve and asked in a sad voice. "One day... can't you stay longer?"

"Since you are from the Valley of Myriad Doctors, I should ask you this question." Jin Wu sighed, pulling the hem of his clothes out of her hands.

San Niang lowered her eyes. "If one day the young master goes to the underworld, Sanniang will definitely go with you."

She was sad and sad, and the water in her eyes flickered, which directly taught people to feel pity.Sanniang has always had a deep affection for Young Master Jin, and it is indeed true: if anything happens to the Jinwu, she will definitely not want to live alone in the world.

Jin Wu stared at her silently for a while, only tapped her on the head lightly, then turned around and left the courtyard.

he said softly. "...don't follow me."

The night is cold, and the craggy mountains are surrounded by darkness.Jin Wu had just drank some wine, and he couldn't help feeling a tingling pain in his chest like a fire.He went back to his room and took a copy of "Xuanxuan Collection", walked upstairs to the bamboo platform and looked at it under the light of the lantern fire.Although I see the words in my eyes, my heart is wandering, unable to settle down.

Looking at the winding and steep bluestone steps, he was fascinated. There was a wooden and stone pavement slanted beside the road, and pawns and traffickers came and went, and there was a lot of noise.From time to time, the wind carried the horse's neighing and rude words and laughter, which was very lively.It's a pity that this lively scene has nothing to do with him, Jinwu stood alone on the bamboo platform, not saying a word.

"There is no way to go in chess, and there is no place to play."

At this time, a voice suddenly came from beside him, someone leaned his head over and read the words in the book.Seeing him shaking his head, quite pleased with himself, the Golden Crow closed the page with a "slap" and knocked on the man's head.

"No peeking."

"Isn't this the thirteen chapters of the Song Dynasty's Chess Classic? It's not written by you, young master, so how can I not read it?" Wang Xiaoyuan said, covering his head.He had just returned to the inn and saw Young Master Jin seldom staring blankly on the bamboo platform, so he wanted to scare him out of play.Naturally—as expected, he was beaten.

Jin Wu saw that his clothes were disheveled and his body was covered in dust, apparently he had been busy digging the grave for a whole day, thinking in his heart that this silly boy really listened to him, so he relaxed his previously frowning brows a little.

"It's not that I can't see it, but that I don't need to watch it anymore." Jinwu said, "There was a fool who wanted to play chess with me. At that time, he had never touched chess, but I can take pictures. Do you know what he did? "

Wang Xiaoyuan answered honestly. "I don't know."

Jin Wu said. "He has thoroughly read the "Chess Classic" and "Wanhui Xianji", and stole the Hexingmen chess record by heart, so he came to play against me."

The young servant thought for a while and answered. "This person is really stupid, and he does some things like stealing like a rat and stealing a dog. He doesn't seem like a gentleman."

Jinwu glanced at him.

Wang Xiaoyuan always felt that there was something deep in this look, but he couldn't tell why.He rubbed his head and laughed. "The young master said that this person can memorize chess records, and what does it have to do with me not needing to read "Xuan Xuan Ji"?"

Jinwu: "Think about the chapters in the thirteen chapters."

Wang Xiaoyuan really began to count in his heart, discussing the game, winning calculations, power opinions, cost-effective calculations... Somehow he can really remember it clearly, and he can even recite the chess words in it.This really made him wonder: although he had never read a chess book, the words in it came to mind naturally.

Just listen to his young master continue. "That man looks decent, but he hides a crooked way in his heart. It's a pity that no one in the world can see it, and everyone thinks he is an honest gentleman."

Seeming to be extremely distressed, Jin Wu stretched out his hand and rubbed the center of his brows, saying. "At that time, he took one move and regretted three moves. The two of us didn't eat or drink, and sat opposite each other from Ridan to Haishi. If one chess move failed, he had to try the remaining 360 moves."

Hearing this, the young servant frowned. "...Good and bad people." He said sincerely, not wanting Young Master Jin to give him a sudden look, and then slapped the pages of the book on his head, he said with a twitch of his mouth. "Yes, he is indeed a good and bad person."

"Then, what happened to your game of chess?" Wang Xiaoyuan finally escaped from the claws of the Golden Crow, and asked while clutching his aching forehead.

"There is no result." Jin Wu said. "Scattered, healed, sick, and stupid have all been put through, and the idiot can't stop regretting his moves, and finally the power is divided. In my opinion, the strategy is not shallow, and the winner is hard to tell. It's the so-called 'survival'."

It seems that the "idiot" in the young master's mouth does not have a white back chess record.Wang Xiaoyuan breathed a sigh of relief.

he asks. "Young Master, have you ever thought about having another round with that man, to win or lose?"

As soon as the words came out of his mouth, he knew he had made a slip of the tongue.Seeing that Young Master Jin seemed to be quite annoyed with the person in his mouth, how could he want to have another game of chess with this person?According to Jinwu's temperament, it was a miracle that he didn't beat up that person on the spot.

Afraid that he would touch Ni Lin, Wang Xiaoyuan looked at his master tremblingly, afraid of finding anger on his face.Not wanting to, Jin Wu raised his brows and eyes, stretched lazily, and then said slowly.

"It's not that I don't want to, but that I can't."

Wang Xiaoyuan wondered. "Why not?"

Jin Wu closed his eyes and smiled, and threw the chess record into his sleeve.The words sounded free and easy, but they couldn't hide the desolation. "...can't wait for that day."
