Staggered parallel to our existence

Ya spoke a little unnaturally, so she had to show a shallow smile.

Long silver hair, crimson eyes, and an emaciated body. The person from 1000 years ago always stays in my mind, seeing her faint smile.

"Master Xian!" Fujiwara Sawei suddenly shouted after seeing the girl in front of him.

"What are you shouting, no one else can hear you except me." Shinto Hikaru communicated with Zuowei in his heart.

"Ah Guang, please do one thing," Zuo Wei looked earnestly, "This round, please follow my thinking and let me play this round with this girl, okay?"

"Aren't you a bully? She might not even be able to beat me. How could she be your opponent? You are a thousand-year-old chess master." Guang said with embarrassment, "And this is my first chess match since I became a professional chess player." How can I let you play for me?"

"Ah Guang, please, I really want to play chess with this girl!" Zuo Wei looked like he was about to cry, and he couldn't bear to be rejected.

"Here again, every time you have this expression, it makes me very difficult to deal with." Guang scratched his hair, "Okay, I promise you. But you are not allowed to bully girls too badly!"

"Thank you, Ah Guang. I know how to play." Zuo Wei smiled, covering his folding fan lightly.

"Ah, I'm sorry, I'm always deserting, you are Red Maria, right?" Guang came back to his senses and smiled apologetically, "Let's guess first."

"Ah, good." Maria was a little surprised.

In this round, Shindo Hikaru takes the black first.

The opening is [-] of [-], and the black piece is placed next to the star.

Maria held the white chess and landed on Xiaojian.

Shinto Hikaru, no, it should be Sato Fujiwara, and the next black move falls in sixteen rows and five columns.

"Didn't they all say that modern black chess has special rules? Zuo Wei, why are you still playing here?" Guang didn't understand Zuo Wei's way of playing, and asked Zuo Wei in his heart.

"I just want to recall some important things with the chess technique from thousands of years ago." Zuo Wei sighed softly, "The aura of that lord seems to be coming slowly."

"I don't understand what you're talking about." Guang didn't understand, so he just played chess according to Zuowei's instructions.

At the tenth move of both sides, Maria stopped suddenly. The staggered and parallel boards, this familiar layout, seemed to come from thousands of years ago, but it was right in front of her eyes.

No, this kind of layout is not what modern times should have. It is not what the young man in front of him has. That person seems to be standing somewhere, watching him. It has never changed for thousands of years.

With dark purple eyes, thin lavender lips, a folding fan in hand, and a tall black hat on his head, he has a jade-like warmth that outsiders can't match, brilliance and nobility, and an elegant body, showing the demeanor of an aristocrat.

It was him, "Teacher Zuowei," Maria twitched suddenly, and the memories of thousands of years came out.

Guang was amazed by the sudden appearance of "Teacher Zuo Wei", could anyone else see Zuo Wei besides himself?

"Lord Xian!" Zuo Wei's eyes overflowed with tears, and he covered his face with a fan, sobbing softly, his heart couldn't help being ecstatic, "I thought that in this life, and forever, I would never see Master Xian again."

The person in front of him seemed to have fluttering clothes, and his demeanor was still immortal.

The pair of empathetic crimson pupils descended again, and the silver hair fluttered in the wind.The memory of Fei Yingxian was revived in Red Maria's body, occupying this body, Fei Yingxian felt the reality of being alive for the first time.

"Teacher Zuowei, it's really, really great to see you again." Maria (Fei Yingxian) shed tears in her eyes, and gently wiped away the tears, "Sure enough, you are still here."

Seventeen

In a game of Go that carries thousands of years of memories, both sides played their last moves.

At the end of the game, the match between the two was a draw.

The first match between the two at the beginning of their careers ended in a draw, and the major sports news media also rushed to report on this match.

High-level chess players in the industry also replayed the game through live broadcast, and found out about the chess skills of the two newcomers.

"Maria-kun, I'm so sorry, I thought you would lose badly in this game." Ogata walked in from the lounge, and saw Maria who was unresponsive, "Maria-kun?" name, and no response.

"Master Maria." Rujia whispered in Maria's ear.

"Sorry, Ogata." Maria came back to her senses, "What's the matter?" Although it was Maria's body, her mind was already occupied by Hi Sakurakan.

"It's nothing, I just came to congratulate you." Ogata pushed his gold-rimmed glasses, "The match between Maria-kun and Hikari Shindo doesn't look like Maria's usual style."

"Is there such a thing as not my style?"

"Maria-kun's chess skills were taught by Xiaoliang-kun and me personally, but today you have developed a completely different style of chess. This style and the style of Shindo Hikaru are not like what should be in this era. It seems to be from A long time ago, a layout technique beyond a thousand years."

"You really are Mr. Ogata, who is very clever." Maria lowered her head and set the chess record. "I still have a game in the afternoon, so you go out first."

"Unexpected indifference." Ogata gently closed the door and walked out of the lounge.

"Things were probably like this a thousand years ago. For the two games in the afternoon, Ah Guang promised me to let me play, okay?" Zuo Wei pulled Guang's clothes and acted like a shy rascal.

"Since you met your old friend, but don't make it too obvious. It's not good for everyone to see that you deliberately let Maria go. I don't want to be your light bulb, but I don't want to hurt you." Guang Shen Stretched, "Want to pick up girls? Don't pester me every day to take you to see her, otherwise I will be in big trouble if I am misunderstood by others!"

"Ah Guang, it's great that you can understand me! As long as I can still see Mrs. Xian, as long as I can still be by her side, then I am already very satisfied." Zuo Wei showed a long-lost smile. After all the waiting, finally, on this day, we meet again.

In the game in the afternoon, the thoughts that cannot be expressed in words are all in the chess game between the two of them.Or intricate, or hearty, or turbulent radical, or lingering.Staggered parallel, parallel staggered.

Our world seems to be sealed on this board, even after 1000 years, there is still not much change.

"I think it must be the gods who heard the pain in my heart, so that my soul never disappeared. Let me wait, so that one day I can meet Lord Xian again." Zuo Wei covered his face with a fan, tears unconsciously Glide over cheeks.

"Not only for me, but also for this staggered and parallel chess game, love it again, this beautiful and dazzling world." Maria slowly lowered her hand holding the chess, and pressed the timer, "In my memory, it's still that March. In spring, under the cherry tree, you taught me how to play chess."

"I will never forget the meeting with Mr. Xian."

After the two games in the afternoon, Red Maria won the first round with a 6-point lead in black, and Shindo Hikari also won the second game with a 6-point lead in black. Based on the games in the morning, the result of today's new first-stage league is still a draw.

The chess club has already exploded. A draw as rare as today has been rarely seen since last year.Even in games as high-ranked as Taya Mingren, draws are rarely seen.

As far as the three games are concerned, whether it is a draw in the morning or a win in the afternoon, the two sides' chess positions are equal, there is no obvious tendency to fight, and the moves are gentle, just like meeting old friends who haven't seen for a long time. "Maria-kun, who has changed the game, even I can't guess her real intention. What is it for?" Ogata watched the replay of the three games, lit a thin cigarette, and paced back and forth, feeling a little uneasy.

Liang, who was in his own chess club, also saw the result of Maria's game through the live broadcast of the league, which was both surprising and frightening.I don't know why I am afraid, but I have a vague feeling telling myself that Maria seems to be getting farther and farther away from me.

"Impossible, Maria doesn't know how to play this kind of chess! Who, who taught her!" I was a little sullen in my heart, didn't I know that she was a comprehensive Maria?

In my memory, it was still the calm and gentle Maria, who spoke softly and smiled.

From the end of the league game in the afternoon to the closing of the chess club in the early morning, as expected, Maria never came to look for Xiao Liang.Liang didn't think about playing chess all night, nor did he practice chess records, but just sat quietly on the chair like this, waiting for that familiar figure.

"Mum will be worried if you don't go home so late, Mr. Xiaoliang?" Miss Shihe walked over, "The chess club is closed and all the guests are gone, Mr. Xiaoliang, shall I take you home? ?”

"Okay." Liang was absent-minded, with lowered eyebrows.

"It looks like she's waiting for someone, is that girl Red Maria?" Shihe asked with concern.

Liang just lowered his head and said nothing.

"It's okay, if you don't wait until tomorrow, one day it will come!" Shihe could only comfort him like this.

After sitting all night, Liang returned home exhausted, and after a hasty wash, he collapsed on the bed.But when I close my eyes, I don't feel sleepy at all.Those three staggered and parallel matches between Maria and Hikari Shinto emerged for no reason, making people upset.

When it was daylight, he was finally too sleepy, and he fell into a deep sleep.

The turquoise bangs fell neatly between the eyebrows, and the narrow and sharp eyes had no warmth.Between the slender and white fingers, the chess piece quickly landed on the board
