Chapter 42 Tai Chi
Fu Cailin, as the most outstanding swordsman in the world, came to Chang'an at the request of Li Yuan, and lived in the famous Lingyan Pavilion in later generations.
Lingyan Pavilion is a group of pavilions and pavilions built on the shore of an artificial lake. It seems to be perched on the waves of smoke. The water is green and the trees are whirling. A long bridge several feet long is built across the tributary of the smoke pool, connecting the
The corridors and pavilions along the coast lead directly to the main door of Lingyan's main building. The pavilions and pavilions are illuminated by the water, and the scenery is extremely beautiful.
After cleaning up the few people following Li Shimin, Ji Boyi stepped into Lingyan Pavilion. He didn't send invitations or let anyone pass them around, he just came here. The ever-changing magic magic skills did not let him go.
One person captured his figure.
There was no sound from the Lingyan Pavilion building group, and it was unusually quiet. There were no guards in the huge attic courtyard. Li Yuan wanted to send someone to take care of Master Yi Jian, but Fu Cailin refused. So in
In Lingyan Pavilion, apart from Fu Cailin, there was only the Korean envoy who came with him.
Strolling on the wooden bridge, Ji Boyi looked at the beautiful Lingyan Pavilion. The main building is wrapped in gold foil, and the gilt-decorated door shines in the sunlight, making the buildings rising up from the sky and scattered in an orderly manner, many of them.
Add a bit of opulence.
The sound of chirping is the sound of fish swimming in the water, as well as the chirping of birds in the trees. This not only does not damage the tranquil atmosphere of the pavilion garden's isolation from the world, but also doubles its sacred feeling of emptiness.
The soft breeze blows by, the flowers and trees in the garden rustle, and the vast pool surface ripples gently. In the spring breeze, there is an air that no one else can detect. It is as sharp as a sword, but as gentle as running water.
At this moment, Ji Boyi knew that Fu Cailin had noticed him. The moment he stepped onto the wooden bridge, the Yi sword master woke up from his sleep and expressed his dissatisfaction with his sword energy.
"It seems that Shi came at the wrong time."
Although he said this, Ji Boyi did not stop and headed towards the stone pavilion in the center of the lake. The platform next to the pavilion facing the pond was covered with dozens of thick and soft pure white carpets, which were combined into one large carpet to cover the cold water.
The hard masonry platform turned into a comfortable place for sitting and lying. A man with long hair and shawl sat on it, with his back to Ji Boyi, and stretched.
A large copper stove is placed on the round stone table in the pavilion. Agarwood smoke rises from the stove and slowly disperses, covering the pavilion with a light veil and mist, and the fragrance is everywhere.
The world-famous Yijian is laid flat on the table. It has no scabbard and is four feet five inches long and two inches wide. The sword body glows with a glowing green light. The handle and guard are covered with conch patterns. The shape is elegant and clumsy.
"I would be happy if you came over in the evening."
"It turns out that Master Yi Jian is still a night owl."
Ji Boyi was not polite at all and sat on a carpet. At this time, the noise here was finally noticed. A dozen Korean beauties in plain clothes came over in panic, and knelt down outside the pavilion as if they had offended the gods.
.
"Everyone, go down. The Evil King is coming to see me. How can you possibly stop him?"
Fu Cailin finally finished stretching. He turned around and waved to the beautiful woman in plain clothes who knelt down to apologize. Ji Boyi finally saw the appearance of this Yijian master. Even though he had been prepared for it, he couldn't help but be shocked.
Looking at Fu Cailin's burly and perfect back, and listening to his charming voice that is full of strange charm and makes people willing to obey, anyone would think that he has a majestic and flawless face. In fact, it is just the opposite. Fu Cailin has a face that is absolutely unqualified.
Handsome, but also weird and ugly in appearance.
He has an unusually long and narrow face, and all the facial features on it are flaws that no one would wish to have. They are more like being squeezed into a pile, making his forehead appear particularly high, and his chin is slender and a bit too baggy.
cumbersome, crooked
The bridge of his nose is disproportionately tall and huge, making his eyes and mouth look even smaller in comparison. Fortunately, he has long black hair that falls over his shoulders, which reconciles the incongruity between his broad shoulders and narrow face, otherwise it would be even worse.
Adding awkwardness and weirdness.
His eyes were still squinting, as if he hadn't woken up from his drowsiness.
More than a dozen beautiful Korean beauties in plain clothes moved two vases to his left and right sides without anyone's instructions, filled with unknown red flowers, making his whole figure filled with the atmosphere of early spring in the mountains.
Afterwards, various musical instruments were brought out, sitting or lying down, or singing in a low voice, embellishing the strange world in the center of the lake with color and fragrance, adding to the mysterious and unpredictable atmosphere.
"Night is the most beautiful, so when everyone goes to bed, it is the time for me to appreciate and enjoy life. If anyone else disturbed my nap, they would have been kicked out by my sword."
After hearing Fu Cailin's explanation, Ji Boyi smiled in surprise. He didn't know that Master Yi Jian had such a hobby. These words reminded him of his decadent life when he was a college student on earth, and he couldn't help but laugh at himself.
Two beautiful women came over and lay on pillows on the left and right sides of Fu Cailin. They must be his two disciples Fu Junyu and Fu Junqiang. The younger one seemed to be secretly looking at Ji Boyi, obviously he was very interested in this famous person.
The evil king is full of curiosity.
"What is life? Can the Evil King answer me?"
Fu Cailin suddenly asked this question, and his deep voice spread across the entire lake like a long wind. Including Fu Junqiang and Fu Junyu, dozens of bright eyes looked at him, obviously they were waiting for Ji Boyi's answer.
.
With a faint smile, Ji Boyi said something that sounded very arrogant to everyone.
“What Shi represents is life!”
Fu Cailin was silent for a moment, and then said three words with emotion.
"Well said!"
The squinted eyes finally opened, and at this moment, the sun in the sky dimmed.
The nose is still the same nose, the mouth is still the same mouth, the eyes are still thin and long, the forehead is too high, and the chin is baggy, but when put together, it is no longer ugly. It makes people feel that the boundary between the most beautiful and the most ugly can not only be blurred,
It can be surpassed. And the biggest contributor to such an effect must be the pair of eyes that are as smart as gods in the eye sockets. They are like the brightest stars in the night sky, embedded in the appropriately long eyes, seamlessly.
"The Evil King's Immortal Seal deduces the limits of life and death. Although it is based on the evil magic of the Demon Sect, it is a superhuman philosophical thought. It represents the void between Buddhism and Taoism intentionally or unintentionally, and coincides with Tai Chi thought.
.It is the limit that a person can reach. It represents the most beautiful life thought in human nature. In terms of artistic conception, it has surpassed my Nine Mysteries."
Fu Cailin had obviously worked hard on Ji Game for a while, and had never learned the Immortal Seal, but he had already seen the deep essence of this martial arts from clues. He was worthy of being the top grandmaster in the world.
"Master Fu thinks too highly of Shi. His flawless swordsmanship is not inferior to my Immortal Seal Technique."
At this time, two beautiful Korean beauties in white brought in a chessboard. The wood was simple and the clouds were crystal clear. At first glance, it was a top-notch item.
"I've heard for a long time that the Evil King uses the Immortal Seal to predict the enemy's opportunities. It just so happens that my swordplay combines the principles of chess and kendo, and the sword comes out like a chess player. Let's talk about it today and have a unique showdown."
Ji Boyi smiled and made a gesture of invitation. Someone beside him had already opened the chess box for him, held down a black stone, and moved it first.
With a snap, except for Fu Cailin, the expressions of everyone watching the battle changed.
Start with Tianyuan!
When Go developed into the Sui and Tang Dynasties, the seventeen-lane chessboard in the past was replaced by a nineteen-lane chessboard. Tianyuan is the only asymmetric point on the Go board, so it is also the most special point.
The nineteen scales imply the meaning of the universe. The first move in Tianyuan has the intention of offending the gods, which is disrespectful, so it is tabooed by every chess player. Coupled with the reason of the seat, there are few ancient games that Tianyuan starts.
Very.
But few does not mean none. In ancient chess, Tianyuan's chessboard is often played in the first move. It has a very special name, called Tai Chi Diagram.
"Tianyuan is the absolute commanding heights of the overall situation. He sits in the center and looks around. The evil king's courage is indeed extraordinary!"
Fu Cailin smiled slightly, and the crystal white cloud in his hand followed Tian Yuan and fell.
Fighting every step of the way, never retreating, showing the sharpness of a master of swordsmanship.
It’s not impossible to play Tian Yuan in the first move, it’s just that there are too many unknown areas in the first move to play Tian Yuan. This is the most difficult starting move to master, and it is indeed very rare for Ji Game, who likes to have everything in his hands.
The two of them came and went without stopping at all. In a short period of time, the black and white men had filled the middle of the game. Fu Junyu and others who were watching the battle held their breath and did not dare to make the slightest sound for fear of affecting the players in the game.
thoughts.
What surprised Fu Junyu and the others the most was that the two of them played chess as if they didn't need to think. One move was immediately followed by the other, and the position of the move was definitely the most correct, without any mistakes.
Therefore, this round of hand talk ended very quickly, with just a stick of incense. The two of them looked at each other, smiled, and gave up.
"I didn't expect that the evil king's chess skills are so advanced."
"If you keep going, it won't work. Master Yi Jian is indeed a master of Yi Jian. His chess skills are so high that no one in the world can compare with you."
Fu Junyu looked at the chessboard and found that the two ended in a draw. This chess game had reached its limit in this situation. Where could it go further?
Just when Fu Junyu and others were confused, Fu Cailin had put away the smile on his face and suddenly said seriously: "The evil king came to me today. What's going on? Is he just here to play chess with me?"
Ji Boyi still had a chuckle on his face and made an offer that Fu Cailin could not refuse.
"For Goryeo, the disunity of the Central Plains is the best thing. Shi can prevent Kou Zhong and Li Shimin from forming a dynasty forever, as long as Master Fu helps me deal with one person."
"Bi Xuan?"
With Fu Cailin's wisdom, he naturally immediately thought of who that person was. Apart from the Turkic Martial Lord, another great master, who else needs the help of him, the sword master?
"Yes, that's him. If I want to kill someone next to him, it won't take more than three breaths. Judging from Master Fu's swordplay skills, it shouldn't be a problem."
