After he finished speaking, his gaze fell on Pei Huai.
Now, it was time to see if he dared to take the hit.
Pei Huai’s expression was calm. He nodded slightly and said, “please tell me.” Bian Guanshi laughed.
He made a gesture and the few of them walked to the functional area at the side.
When everyone stood up, Bian Tong noticed that his grandfather’s plain robe had a picture of a lucky cat
Was he so trendy?
Not only that, but the functional area they had arrived at was actually a leisure and entertainment area.
There were all kinds of trendy gadgets inside, most of which were the most popular ones at young people’s parties.
Even the reincarnation of his grandfather was able to accept the new things of modern society. Bian Tong felt that he was the only one who was still stuck in the past, trapped by the memories of the past thousand years. He looked at his empty palm through the black glove.
Perhaps, all of this was arranged by the heavens…
He retracted his gaze and met Bian Guanshi’s gaze for a moment.
However, it was only for a moment before Bian Guanshi retracted his gaze. The disciple moved the chessboard according to his master’s instructions and very nimbly cleaned up the place.
From the moment the master said that he wanted Pei Huai to play with him, he already knew what was going on.
Other than telling fortunes, his master liked to play games the most.
The master said that it was because divination was too taxing on the mind and the brain needed to relax.
Sigh, if the master said so.
However, the master was not an ordinary old man. It could be said that he was proficient in all kinds of competitive games.
Even if all of them joined forces, they would still not be able to defeat the master.
Bian Guanshi, on the other hand, was seeking defeat. After a long time, he felt that it was meaningless. He also knew that Pei Huai was talented and intelligent. He should not be too bad at games. He should be barely qualified to be his opponent.
“Best two out of three,” Bian Guanshi said with a smile as he extended two fingers. “As long as you win two rounds, you can buy the treasure from me.”
Shen Mu glanced at the fancy chessboard on the table. He had never seen it before. “Then what are the three games to be played? Who decides this?”
Bian Guanshi said, “since you are the ones seeking the treasures, I’ll decide.”
Shen Mu scratched the little hairs on his face. “Isn’t this a little unfair? My boss doesn’t usually play with these things. If you choose what you’re good at…’ Bian Guanshi cleared his throat and glanced at Pei Huai.
As if afraid that he would back out, Bian Guanshi said, “don’t worry. These are all mini games with very simple rules. CEO Pei definitely knows how to play them…’
“In that case.” Pei Huai’s lips curved. “The game will be decided by Master Bian, but if I can win two or more rounds, please keep your promise.”
Beat him in more than 2 rounds?
Bian Guanshi laughed in his heart.
How shameless.
A person who had never played these games, and now he was facing a god -level opponent like him, how could he win?
“Then let’s begin.” Bian Guanshi couldn’t wait to destroy the young man’s spirit.
Bian Tong sat to the side and picked up a steaming hot teacup, looking like he was watching a good show.
On one side was his grandfather, and on the other side was Pei Huai. Bian Tong might not be able to say for the time being who was better, but…they were definitely stronger than him.
He was just an ordinary craftsman, a jade carving enthusiast, and a folk artist…
Pei Huai and Bian Guanshi sat on both sides of the chess table. The disciple placed the chess pieces for the first game.
There were 15 chess pieces in front of each of them in an inverted triangle formation.
The chess piece in front of Bian Guanshi was white while Pei Huai’s was black.
Shen Mu finally understood.
It was Chinese checkers!
Usually, elders of this age, such as Old Master Pei, who Shen Mu was familiar with, played Chinese checkers, Go, or Gomoku.
This old man did not play Chinese checkers the usual way.
He then looked at his CEO. His expression was as calm as when he had just accepted the challenge. He was neither intimidated nor arrogant.
Shen Mu had never seen his CEO play checkers before, so he couldn’t help but look forward to the game.
“As I said, it’s just a simple game.” Bian Guanshi tilted his head and looked at
Pei Huai. “CEO Pei must have played checkers before, right?”
“I did.” Pei Huai nodded slightly. “Twenty years ago.”
Bian Guanshi sneered.
He had just played it last night.
He’s clearly asking to be abused!
At the start of the game, Bian Guanshi made the first move.
He placed his pieces cleanly. It was obvious that he often played.
Although Chinese checkers was not as popular as Go and Chinese chess, there were many strategies. Although there was only one way to win, and the first person to get all the pieces on his side into the opponent’s camp would win, it was not easy to achieve this goal.
It was also a highly skilled board game.
Bian Guanshi’s first move was a piece in the middle of the board. Immediately after, Pei Huai moved.
The first piece he moved was the one at the edge of his chessboard.
Shen Mu was not as calm as Bian Tong. His gaze followed, nervously watching the situation on both sides.
He knew a thing or two about Chinese checkers.
Generally speaking, moving to the left and right was a common opening move. The advantage was that it could go straight into the opponent’s hinterland, but it was very likely to squeeze into a group in the middle of the game. It was the favorite opening method for novices.
Shen Mu looked at his CEO.
The CEO seemed to be…doing this.
Then, he looked at Master Bian.
Moving the middle piece to the left and right was a starting method that only veterans or experts would dare to use. The advantage was that it allowed the pieces to be arranged better, but the disadvantage was that one starts slow.
At first glance, they all had their advantages and disadvantages, but…one was a novice opening, while the other was a veteran opening. Just from this point alone, the difference was obvious.
Shen Mu couldn’t help but swallow. He was worried for his CEO.
Bian Guanshi obviously understood Pei Huai’s moves and scoffed disdainfully. He did not show any mercy when he placed his pieces. He knew that the beginner’s opening method would lead to certain death if they were stuck in the middle in the later stages of the game. Therefore, he deliberately strengthened the control of the middle part of the game.
In a while, as long as Pei Huai was the first to jump into his territory, the string of chess pieces behind him would be like a traffic hub in the morning and evening rush hour, packed to the brim!
As he thought of this, he set up the array with confidence.
However, after seven or eight rounds, he suddenly froze.
That’s not right. After waiting for so long, why didn’t the kid send any chess pieces to him?
He looked at Pei Huai again.
The next second, Bian Guanshi was stunned!
