I received a bounce from a non-existent player

When she calmed down a bit, I learned from her that Kong Ling'an died in an accident.

When he went to visit the elderly in the countryside, his arm was accidentally caught in the hay cutter and was literally twisted into pieces.By the time he was found and sent to the hospital, it was too late.

Mother Kong cried and said that since he had his legs amputated a few years ago, he has never touched dangerous things, and he doesn't know how to use a hay cutter. He doesn't understand why he suddenly wants to play with that thing.

I heard it angrily.It must have been done by Zongge and Feng Nuo Erman.

As for the amputation, it was because of a slide.The slide was not serious, but there was no camera in the elevator, and the emergency phone was in disrepair and malfunctioned, so he was locked in the elevator.He was young at the time, and found that the elevator door was loose, so he broke the elevator door open with his bare hands, trying to force his way out.

At that time, the elevator fell to the basement, the upper part in front of the door was the walkway on the first floor, and the lower part was a gray wall.He chose to climb out.But when he climbed halfway, the elevator suddenly continued to slide, crushing half of his legs in one fell swoop.

When I heard her say this, I naturally thought of the slide I experienced in the illusion, and I felt sympathetic and at the same time I couldn't help being lucky. Fortunately, I didn't climb out rashly at that time.

The giant face really made me taste the pain of Kong Lingan during his lifetime.

But Kong Ling'an is a person with both talent and hard work. Instead of degenerate after losing his legs, he devoted himself even more to chess.Entering the international stage is something after amputation.

In his first match since his recovery, he was given a move by his opponent, which was obvious.As a chess player, his quality is to go all out, even if he can see that the chess is surrendered, he will seize the opportunity.

Just like that erasure battle.He knew that Zongge was underestimating him, but he wouldn't let it go.After Zongge found out that he underestimated his opponent, he tried his best to turn the tide, but it was useless.

In fact, even if the opponent didn't pass that move, Kong Ling'an could still win by relying on his own strength.Sympathy from opponents for his disability is disrespectful to him.

While praising the opponent's noble qualities, everyone inevitably positioned him as a man with a strong body and a strong will but no victories.

He was furious and didn't understand why his opponent would allow him, yet after that he realized that this wasn't the only one who had prejudice against him - many people who thought they were pitying him were actually just trampling his dignity underfoot.

He couldn't stand such a chess game full of hypocrisy, so he went to play Jiansan as an excuse to relax.Through the screen, as long as he doesn't say anything, no one will know that he is disabled, and no one will pretend to be kind and humble him.

After the number deletion battle, he returned to the chess world.

In a certain game, he learned that this was the opponent's last game before retiring, and he could feel the opponent's urgent desire to win.He respected the opponent who went all out, and also missed the long-lost sense of competition, so he considered every move and tried his best to pay back the past.

In the end, Kong Ling'an won.

He saw the opponent's hands start to tremble, and the emotions in his eyes began to collapse, and he suddenly remembered the expression on his face when he faced the crippled legs for the first time.

In the post-match interview, the reporter asked the opponent what he thought.Kong Ling'an originally thought that he would lose control of his emotions, but he put on a compassionate expression and said:

"My last game, as I planned, was reserved for this young but strong chess player."

Kong Lingan was stunned.

The opponent continued to talk eloquently, saying that he hoped that more physically disabled people could continue to pursue their dreams, and that Kong Lingan could go further, so that his own ending would be meaningful, etc., but Kong Lingan didn't listen to a word.

He could only understand that the opponent's implication was that he gave himself this victory—although this was not true.

But others follow suit.

The reporter nodded appreciatively, and handed the microphone to Mrs. Baa.

His instinct was to refute, and he wanted to scold all those who pretended to be sympathetic to him, but after a while, he remembered the look in his opponent's eyes when he lost, it was too familiar, he could understand it too much, and he could empathize too much.

In the end, it was his cowardly kindness that prevailed.

Against his will, he said thank you into the microphone and cut off chess completely.Not long after, something unexpected happened.

Evil asks good, [If it wasn't for you, how could we become like this? 】

He left with resentment, perhaps because of his ability to be ignored because of his disability.

If his good side did not help his opponent complete that despicable lie in the end, but let the evil side explain everything violently, maybe some things would be different,

Maybe after his death, the evil side will not endlessly kill the good side because of the decision he regretted,

Maybe there won't be these things now.

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

Mother Kong’s word order was a bit chaotic when she first started narrating, and it took me a lot of effort to keep up. By the end of her speech, she had calmed down.

"Ling'an didn't tell anyone about these things except me." She looked at the pot of roses on the balcony sadly, her dark eyes were stained with a distant crimson, "His last thank you is equivalent to agreeing with everything. He If you agree with something, you will never go back on your word, and you will never bring it up again... Isn't it stupid?"

Kong Ling'an couldn't forgive himself, so his good side chose to forget, longing for the end of reincarnation, while the evil side chose to bear this memory, seeking revenge on all those who caused his tragedy, including his own good side, in remorse .

After she finished speaking, she was exhausted, and her thin face was even more haggard: "He is in too much pain. I also want him to stay by my side, but I really can't watch him suffer like this anymore. You are all good people, Save him."

Jiang Heng comforted her a few words, and asked, "Where is his study that you mentioned earlier, can we go in?"

"Yes." She stood up with the sofa, "You all come with me."

We got up and walked behind her.Jiang Heng secretly stuffed the handle of the plastic bag containing the severed hand into my hand.Immediately, my whole body shivered, and I walked a little smoothly.

The room is not big, with a few necessities neatly arranged, leaving a bit of the meticulous temperament of the master in his lifetime.

In the middle of the room is a low chess table with a chess set on it, but it looks like a broken game: several pieces are tilted on the chessboard, and some have rolled to the ground.The two kings of black and white are adjacent to each other.The black queen, broken into three, is embedded in the crack of the board next to the black king.

Only one white queen is missing.

"This is..." I took a breath.

Mother Kong wiped her eyes: "It was like this when I came to see it this morning, and I haven't had time to clean it up yet."

Of course, what shocked me was not the cruelty of the chessboard, but the layout, which was exactly the same as last night's life-and-death game.

I involuntarily touched the White Queen in my pocket.The missing one should be with me.

Looking at the broken chessboard, her voice began to choke again: "Poor Ling'an has worked hard for most of his life for chess, but the result is the same as this chessboard. In the end, it didn't..."

"I've seen him play chess. Very well."

Mother Kong looked at me with some astonishment, and I continued to say sincerely: "Every step he takes is carefully considered, and he presses every step without revealing his flaws, which makes me nervous."

She froze for a long time before shaking her head, the loneliness in her eyes made people worry: "Thank you for your comfort. You have never seen him before, how could you watch him play chess..."

"I've seen it before." I pointed at the chessboard and blurted out, "He used to let the pawns of E2 go to E4 at the beginning of the game. Leaning towards the elephant..."

I don't know when my memory was so good, maybe it's because of the emotion, maybe it's the White Queen on my body silently reminding me.I was immersed in my explanation, and when I turned my head to look at Mother Kong, I found that she was staring at me with tears streaming down her face.

After a while, she asked softly, "This kid is a good chess player... isn't he?"

The White Queen in her pocket became slightly hot.

I was taken aback, then nodded vigorously.

"Yes. Very good."

The author has something to say:

The title of this chapter is a song I like very much, called "Song Chuang Chess", which pays tribute to chess player Shi Xiangxia, and excerpts some lyrics

"Look at this time, the gentleman's behavior hides his righteousness and cleanliness.

One black, one white, one coming and one passing, all things are pale and yellow

One rises, one falls, one fades, another grows rotten axe

See through all kinds of heat and coolness in the surrounding world

It's better to go back with a whisper, the wind is clear and the moon is bright

When you go, when you go, when you stop, when you stop, the sky is empty

Flowing water does not compete, all things do not compete, sit in seclusion and forget each other"

I feel that Kong Ling'an is such a person.Cultivate chess and cultivate character, with one heart to the end, so clean that you can't find anything in him except chess and faith.
