Chapter 5 Let's Play Chess
In fact, Kuwahara Asama thinks it is a very miraculous thing for a blind person to learn to draw.
When Mu Furong first taught him how to play chess, he hesitated. What kind of concept should a blind person who has never seen anything have about the chessboard and chess pieces?
But before he figured it out, Mu Furong got a set of chessboard and chess pieces from somewhere, and asked him to touch them with his hands. After playing blindfolded chess, the board and chess pieces were put away again.
And this time, Zhang Jingsi taught him how to draw talismans hand in hand, which brought him similar distress.
The field Jingji said that a talisman in the shape of an eye should be drawn here. Even if Kuwahara Asama knew how to draw it in his heart, he still had to act as if he didn't know how to draw it... what eyes look like.
... After two days of painting, Kuwahara Asama became more and more uncomfortable as he painted more and more. The unnatural Chang Jingji was still extremely sharp. To deceive this cousin, Kuwahara Asama put a lot of thought into it, even worse than the whole day with Mu Furong. The chess is tired.
In just one week, Kuwahara Asama lost a lot of weight.
Due to physical reasons, he was unable to do strenuous exercise. He sat in the room reading books all the year round, and recently became obsessed with playing chess. Bones gone.
Nanase was very distressed when she saw it, and she cautiously advised Chang Jingsi's eye knife.
"Is it too urgent..."
Zhang Jingsi remained silent, before saying, "He's my cousin! Not that flower demon's!!"
"..." The corners of Nanase's mouth twitched, she glanced at her leader subtly, and suddenly she realized that although the boy in front of her was the leader of the field, she was only 16 years old.
What's more, the young man's parents passed away. For Kuwahara Asama, his Ma Jingji is the closest relative, but for Chang Jingji, Kuwahara Asama is not his only relative?
Nanase smiled subconsciously, and she came up with a bad idea, "Maybe you can also learn Go with Master Asama, and see how interesting Go is..."
Zhang Jingsi sneered on the surface, but secretly began to read some chess records, which made Nanase even more happy, and felt that her leader was awkward and cute.At the same time, Zhang Jingsi also realized that he was too impatient, and he began to deliberately slow down the teaching progress.
The strongest in the field of killing demons is the archery practiced by Chang Jingsi, and the second one is the talisman. The field Jingsi made a small fuss about Kuwahara Asama, and the other elders of the field thought that they were the leader He just taught some simple basics, but he didn't want to teach Chang Jingsi almost everything. From the most basic talisman composition and principles, to the precious talisman copies in Changyi's inventory, he taught Kuwahara Asahi. between.
Kuwahara Asama never refuses anyone who comes. He learns talismans with Chang Jingsi during the day, and learns chess with Mu Furong at night. He lives a very fulfilling life. He is young and has the comprehension of an adult, and he studies very seriously. So after about half a year, he recognized all the talismans.
Learning the shape of the talisman was just the beginning. Immediately afterwards, Chang Jingsi began to train his finger dexterity. He didn't need to find any glass beads. He just held a Go piece in his hand for training. Within a few days, Asama's fingers became It's a big circle.
Mu Furong was so angry, how could she torment a child like this?
Originally, Mu Furong wanted to find Chang Jingsi desperately, but was stopped by Kuwahara Asama.
"My cousin is also doing it for my own good."
Kuwahara Asama knows that he is born with a deficiency in this life. If he wants to get something, he has to put in more effort and sweat. He has already had good enough opportunities and conditions, but he just suffers. He can persevere.
That night, Nanase came to apply medicine to him with ointment. He sat obediently beside Nanase and let Nanase bandage his fingers. His small face was as white as a piece of paper, and when he sensed Nanase's gaze, he reflexively raised a smiling face...
Nanase felt even more distressed.
On the second day, Kuwahara Asama got half a day's rest.
He smiled and said to Mu Furong, "Cousin is really a good person, it happens to be half a day longer, let's play chess!"
"..." Mu Furong looked at the boy in front of her and suddenly felt a little stupid.
During the Chinese New Year, Kuwahara Asahi received a call from her mother.
On the phone, the gentle female voice was like a trickle of water, warming Kuwahara Asama's heart little by little. She babbled a lot, but the central idea was one, mom and dad miss you, you have to grow up obediently, grow up When I grow up, I can go back to my parents!
Kuwahara Asama thought of the secret technique of Chang Yi Talisman that he had learned recently, and he felt heavy melancholy in his heart. His cousin could not be trying to keep him in the field... right?
... Hehe, I hope he is overthinking.
After hearing that he started to learn how to play chess, his mother seemed a little surprised, but also very happy, "Ah, Asama can play chess now! Grandpa will be very happy to know!!"
"grandfather?"
"Yes! Grandpa is Honinbo!"
Kuwahara Asama was taken aback, Honinbo?Could it be the Honinbo Round Robin?His grandfather is Honinbo?
"Really? Grandpa is Honinbo? Is dad also a chess player?"
"Yes! Dad is a five-dan shogi player, so of course he can't compare to grandpa." The mother on the phone seemed to hear what the people around her said, and giggled, "But grandpa became Honinbo, the chessboard of our family. The sale is very good! If I had known Asama likes to play chess, I should have given you a chess set as a New Year gift."
Kuwahara Asama smiled involuntarily after hearing this, "The pillow is very cute, I like it very much, there are also chess sets and so on here, cousin Jingji is very kind to me, mother don't have to worry."
After another conversation with his mother, Kuwahara Asama hung up the phone, and he stood by the phone without moving.
After a while, Nanase came over, "Master Asama? The leader is looking for you...Master Asama?"
Kuwahara Asama smiled slightly, "It's nothing, my mother told me just now that I have a younger brother."
Nanase was taken aback, her expression changed slightly, "Really? It looks like I need to send someone to visit..."
At the end of the new year, Nanase took the opportunity to visit Kuwahara's mansion by taking the opportunity to attend the demon gathering in Tokyo.
Kuwahara Inbo temporarily went to the chess academy and was not at home. Mrs. Kuwahara was receiving her. After Nanase checked it carefully, she breathed a sigh of relief. The child in Mrs. Kuwahara's stomach did not have the slightest spiritual power, and Kuwahara Asama should not appear Case.
After learning this, Mrs. Kuwahara showed a happy smile on her face. Seeing this smile, Nanase thought of Kuwahara Asama, and her heart sank slightly.
She thought about it, and before she left, she left behind the chess record of the game between Asama Kuwahara and the flower demon. Although she didn't know chess, the flower demon was Furong raised by a chess master in the last century. After watching chess for 50 or [-] years, teaching Master Asama should... be easy, right?
In the evening, when Kuwamoto Inbo came back from the chess academy, he felt a little regretful when he learned that the members of the Chang family had left.
Speaking of the eldest grandson, except that he saw him once when he was born, he never had the chance to see him again. Every year, he could only listen to the voice on the phone, or send some photos from the door. Although he missed him very much, he was hindered by There is no way to see the rules of the field in person, so we can only wait for the child to grow up.
Thinking of Taya Yukihiro’s seeming plainness at the chess academy today, but showing off his son’s ability to play chess, Kuwamoto Inbo felt a toothache. His grandson was about the same age as Taya Yukihiro’s son. If the grandson hadn’t been sent Let's go, I'm afraid I can play chess now...
I was depressed, so I heard my daughter-in-law chattering, "Aunt Nanase left some chess records before she left. She said that Asama is also playing chess now, but I don't understand..."
Kuwamoto Inbo's eyes lit up!
Kuwahara Matsuwa was taken aback for a moment, and then said with relief, "This is a good thing, he will always come back, as a descendant of a chess player, how can he not know how to play chess?"
Sang Ben Inbo ignored his son, he said directly to his daughter-in-law, "Where's the chess record?"
"Ah, I put it away. Dad, do you want to read it now?" Hideko Kuwahara got up and walked to the cabinet next to her, and handed the bag to Kuwahara Inbo, "It seems that there are quite a few."
Kuwamoto Inbo took the bag, pulled out a thick stack of chess records, and read them intently.
Kuwahara Hideko and her husband looked at each other and smiled at the same time. Kuwahara Matsukazu asked his wife, "How is your health recently?"
"Ah, very good, the child is very well-behaved." Kuwahara Hideko gently stroked her belly. She hadn't seen her eldest son since he was born. Even though she missed her dearly, she couldn't see her again. Now that she finally had a child, she was of course happy After Nanase determined that the child had no spiritual power, she was even more ecstatic.
She's had enough of the separation of mother and child!
"Good chess!!" Kuwamoto Inbo suddenly said, he was smiling like a big chrysanthemum, and he couldn't close his mouth.
Kuwahara Matsukazu asked curiously, "How about Asama's chess?"
"Yes, this child is very spiritual!"
Kuwahara Matsukazu reached out to take the chess record and take a look, but Kuwahara Inbo got up with the chess record, walked into the quiet room, and started to write the score by himself. Kuwahara Matsukazu shook his head speechlessly, but he became happy immediately.
"It seems that Asama has learned well, which is really great."
In the quiet room, Kuwamoto Inbo restrained his smile. He looked at the chess record quietly, as if he saw a child sitting in front of the chessboard.
Far away from his parents and blind, the little child is alone, holding a chess piece in his hand, and draws an immature but broad world on the chessboard.
It's really hard for him.
Kuwamoto Inbo thought for a while, he got up, walked to the desk, took out a record sheet, and drew a mark on the position of three to five, then he put it away and mailed it out the next day.
A week later, Asama Kuwahara, who was far away in the Bamoto family, received a letter from his grandfather who had never met.
After opening it and touching it, he smiled.
Let's play chess!
