Episode 3 Let's Play Chess
This is the story that happened after the four of Su Cheng moved out of the stable and lived in a small rented house, before Su Cheng took over the task of countering the rebellion.
———————
"Cheng, it's your turn to take care of the sanitation of the house today." Kailor said to Su Cheng.
After hearing what Kai Luoer said, Su Cheng's face changed instantly.
A stream of cold sweat hung on Su Cheng's forehead.
Ever since they moved out of the stable and moved into this small rented house, the four of them made an agreement: every day, they will be responsible for handling the house in the order of Kai Luoer, Alan, Deng Jiaer, and Su Cheng. health.
Today it's Su Cheng's turn.
In other words, Su Cheng will be in charge of sweeping, mopping, washing dishes today...
Su Cheng is actually a person who hates handling housework. Every time it is his turn to take care of today's hygiene, he always wants to think of ways to skip today's tasks.
Today is a very rare day when all four of them are free. Today is Kai Luoer's rest day, so he doesn't have to go to work, and Su Cheng doesn't have to go to class for Ilsa today.
It's just that Alan went out early this morning, saying that he was going to buy something and come back. In other words, only Su Cheng, Kai Luoer, and Deng Jiaer are at home now.
For the previous sanitation tasks, Su Cheng gave Alan a sum of pocket money or promised to accompany her to play, and then asked Alan to help him with his sanitation tasks.
However, Alan is not at home now...
How can we neglect today's sanitation tasks? ?
Just as Su Cheng was thinking hard, he suddenly saw a box of things on the table out of the corner of his eye.
It is a box of "war chess".
Su Cheng picked up the box of war chess, and asked:
"Huh? Whose is this?"
As soon as Su Cheng finished speaking, Deng Jiaer, who was sitting opposite Su Cheng, quickly raised his hand, and said:
"Sir, it's mine!"
War chess is a kind of board game in this different world. It was invented at the beginning to help soldiers in the army develop command skills. However, war chess has gradually spread to the common people due to its excellent playability. An excellent puzzle board game for all ages.
Su Cheng looked around at the box of war chess in his hand, and continued:
"Deng Jiaer, do you like playing war games?"
"Yeah!" Deng Jiaer nodded vigorously, "I like it very much! When I was at home in North Munster, I always played with my friends. I just bought this box of wargames yesterday, and I haven't had time to play it yet. .”
"Oh?"
Su Cheng raised his eyebrows, and an evil thought had already appeared in his mind.
"Then, Deng Jiaer." Su Cheng continued, "Are you good at wargames?"
"Hmph." Deng Jiaer put his hands on his hips, with a smug expression on his face, "I'm not bragging. When I lived in North Munster, I never had any opponents."
"Is it true or not?"
Su Cheng spoke in a yin and yang tone, and at the same time put on a questioning and mocking expression.
"Why do I not believe it so much? You won't lie, will you?"
"I didn't lie!" Deng Jiaer said anxiously.
"Then, how about it." Su Cheng said with a smirk, "I can also play war chess, let's compete with each other."
"Huh? Sir, do you know how to play war chess?"
"Of course. But just playing chess is so boring. In order to make it more exciting, let's raise some bets. If I lose, you can ask me to do anything. If you lose, you can help me Let's deal with today's hygiene."
After hearing Su Cheng's words, Kailor's pupils shrank suddenly, and then immediately lip-spoken to Deng Jiaer, saying "don't, don't" to Deng Jiaer silently with lips, and at the same time The arms made a big fork.
Looking at Deng Jiaer who kept hinting to her not to play this game of chess,
There was a moment of hesitation.
Seeing Deng Jiaer who was still hesitating, Su Cheng immediately put on that awkward expression again.
"What? Deng Jiaer, are you really lying to me? In fact, your chess skills are very good, so you don't dare to play with me, right? Really, don't learn to deceive people at a young age."
"What! How dare you say that I'm lying? I'm not lying! Just get down! Watch me beat you to pieces!"
Deng Jiaer snatched the weapon from Su Cheng's hand, then opened the box, and began to place the chessboard and chess pieces on the table.
Looking at Deng Jiaer who was hooked, Su Cheng showed an evil smile of "planning".
Sure enough, it was a little girl, and she fell into my aggressive method easily. Su Cheng thought to himself.
On the side, Kai Luoer also helped his forehead, and then said to Deng Jiaer: "Deng Jiaer, it's still too late for you to refuse, Cheng's wargame skills are very powerful."
"Hmph, I'm also very good." Deng Jiaer smiled confidently, "I almost forgot what it's like to lose. Look at me beating my husband to pieces!"
After hearing what Deng Jiaer said, Su Cheng smiled meaningfully, and then moved his fingers.
"I play wargames - and never lose..."
...
15 minutes later.
"Woo...how could this be..."
Deng Jiaer, with tears in his eyes, looked helplessly at the disastrous chess game.
Kai Luoer stroked Deng Jiaer's little head sympathetically.
At the beginning of the chess game, Deng Jiaer launched a fierce attack. After playing against Deng Jiaer, Su Cheng found that Deng Jiaer was not lying. Those who are not good at chess are likely to be defeated by Deng Jiaer at the beginning of the game.
But... that is, only those who are not good at chess will be killed and defeated.
Facing Deng Jiaer's fierce attack, Su Cheng launched an active defense first, blocking all Deng Jiaer's fierce attacks. With the force of attack.
After Deng Jiaer's attack became weak and exposed flaws, Su Cheng immediately seized this opportunity and directly launched a counterattack.
With one blow, Deng Jiaer was completely defeated, nearly annihilating the entire army.
After successfully ignoring today's sanitation task, Su Cheng happily drank the black tea that Kai Luoer had just brewed just now.
"Then, I will leave the cleaning of the house to you today~"
"Who, who said that one set will determine the outcome!" Deng Jiaer wiped away the little tears from the corners of his eyes, "We won two out of three sets!"
"Why are you still playing tricks..."
Su Cheng put down the teacup in his hand.
"Well, forget it, two wins in three sets will be two wins in three sets, you won't change it anymore, will you?"
"No more! If you win two out of three sets, you will win two out of three sets! I will definitely beat you in this set!"
"Then let me give you a little discount for this plate."
While talking, Su Cheng took a few pieces of his own from the chessboard.
"Let me give you a few chess pieces, and give you a little chance of victory."
"Ah, sir, do you want to pass chess? Even if you are very good at chess, how can you beat me when you handed over a few pieces~ Impossible~ Impossible~"
...
12 minutes later.
"Woooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooh..."
Deng Jiaer had tears in his eyes again, looking pitifully and helplessly at the chessboard where he had lost even more miserably.
Carol stroked her little head sympathetically again.
"Remember to clean the bowl." Su Cheng said while drinking tea.
"Woooo...I'm really good at chess...I didn't lie to you..."
Deng Jiaer, with tears in his eyes, was tidying up the chessboard while sniffing his little nose.
"Don't be sad, Deng Jiaer." Kai Luoer said softly, "You are actually very good. This is the first time I have seen someone who can last more than 10 minutes in a game of war with Cheng."
After hearing Kai Luoer's comfort, Deng Jiaer whispered: "Really..."
"Well, it's true." Su Cheng nodded with a smile, "You are already very good. It's amazing that you can last 10 minutes in my hands. In the two games just now, I have several times. I feel the danger, so I already believe that you didn't lie to me."
Speaking of this, Su Cheng paused, and then continued:
"Let's go out to eat something together later, I invite you to eat, you can eat whatever you want."
"Really?!"
Deng Jiaer, who was still a little depressed just now, immediately regained his spirits.
"Can you really eat anything?"
Su Cheng nodded.
"Really, you can eat whatever you want."
After hearing Su Cheng's answer, Deng Jiaer became energetic again, and cheerfully cleaned up the chessboard and chess pieces on the table.
Seeing Deng Jia'er getting better again, Su Cheng couldn't help smiling and said in his heart:
To deal with the gluttonous Deng Jiaer, food is the best way to appease him. Sure enough, she is indeed a 14-year-old girl. She is easy to be aggressive and coaxed. Little emotions come and go quickly.
at this time.
"I'm back!"
Another 14-year-old girl living in the same house appears to have returned.
"Alan, welcome back... Hey, what is this big box you are holding?"
Su Cheng saw a big box in Alan's hand.
After hearing Su Cheng's question, Alan excitedly raised the big box in his hand.
"It's the board game 'Simulate Life'! Brother, Deng Jiaer, and Kai Luoer, let's play together!"
