Chapter 93 Old Wood
Xu Jing made an appointment to have dinner at six o'clock in the evening, but Fan Fei came to Yixiangyuan Community an hour earlier and wanted to find out the whereabouts of Ding Shichen first.
Fan Fei has never been to Ding Shichen's house, and Ding Shichen has not told him his address, but Ding Yi, a celebrity, is obviously easy to find out, so Fan Fei finally found the Ding family.
In Fan Fei's expectation, the Ding family must be a villa, but to Fan Fei's surprise, the Ding family turned out to be a villa group - two four-and-a-a-half-storey villa and a six-and-a-half-story villa, forming a small villa group, outside is a circle of red walls, surrounding the thousands of square meters. Fang's territory. There is a camera on the wall every few tens of meters, which monitors the surrounding movement almost in an all-round way. Even if a sparrow flies over, I'm afraid it will be found by the monitoring equipment in the villa, which can be said to be heavily guarded.
Fan Fei was also a little panicked when he saw such a dense camera. Fortunately, he was already on guard and put on a wide-brimmed sunglasses to cover the small half of his face. However, he still cautiously stayed away from the wall, staggered to the large sliding iron door of the main door of the wall, and looked sideways at it.
Looking in from the iron gate, there is a small garden, a small vegetable field, a fish pond and a rockery, an open-air swimming pool, more than a dozen big trees and small trees, a small parking lot, and even two billiard tables. It is actually a garden in China. If he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, it would have been almost difficult for Fan Fei to imagine this rich and powerful scene.
Except for the Ding family, such a landscape can no longer be found in Yixiangyuan Community. Fan Fei estimated that the Ding family must have been involved in real estate, and it is likely that the Yixiangyuan community was developed by the Ding family, so he could reserve a piece of land to build such a super luxurious mansion in the community.
The iron door is locked, and the villa complex is deserted. There is almost no one person. There is only a thin old man sweeping the floor with his back. The old man is very ordinary, his hair is white, his skin is a little yellow, and his expression is dull. He looks like he has hepatitis or bile disease. He took a bamboo broom and was slowly sweeping the fallen leaves and debris on the ground. His movements were very soothing and natural. At first glance, he was an old servant who had swept the ground for many years.
The old man glanced at the ground for a while, and suddenly seemed to notice something. He raised his head, looked at Fan Fei in a daze, lowered his head, and continued to sweep the ground as if no one was around.
Fan Fei didn't care. He walked straight through the iron gate, walked for a long time before he went around the back of the wall, and walked behind another adjacent villa. Then he found a place that the camera could not see, lay on the lawn, and began to hypnotize himself.
"Now my spirit is extremely relaxed and my hearing is extremely sensitive. I am the legendary Qianli Ear. I can hear any subtle sounds within 500 meters nearby..."
After Fan Fei hypnotized himself, he could only hear the subtle sounds within 200 meters nearby, but as usual, he falsely reported a little data with the mentality of "g for one hundred and fifty".
After calling out his powerful listening power, Fan Fei concentrated all his energy and began to listen to the movements of the Ding family's villas.
After listening quietly for nearly an hour, Fan Fei didn't hear much movement. In the huge villa group, most of the sound came from the TV. Fan Fei concentrated on distinguishing all kinds of voices, and finally heard some dialogues. Although there was no Ding Shichen's voice in it, it also revealed some more important information, which made the expression on his face fluctuous.
Near six o'clock, the alarm on Fan Fei's mobile phone suddenly rang. Fan Fei sighed and stood up unwillingly. He carefully recalled what he had just overheard, sorted out his thoughts, and then walked to Xu Jing's house.
As soon as he got to the door, Fan Fei smelled a good smell of vegetables. He sucked his nose hard, with a smile on his face, and muttered softly, "Tonight, there are braised pork, spicy chicken, sweet and sour ribs, hey, but the vinegar on the ribs is too strong..."
Fan Fei's sense of smell is very sensitive, and he has been helping in Longfeng Restaurant for a long time, so as soon as he smells the smell of the dish, he can tell what kind of dish it is, and even the seasoning in the dish can be judged. At this moment, when I smelled so many meat dishes, I was suddenly refreshed.
After Fan Fei knocked on the door, it was the nanny Aunt Hong who opened the door. Aunt Hong is wearing an apron and is obviously cooking in the kitchen.
As soon as Fan Fei walked into the living room, he was stunned, because Xu Yifan was playing chess with an old man, and this old man was actually the servant he just saw at the iron gate of the Ding family.
Hearing Fan Fei's movement, the old servant raised his head to look at Fan Fei. His face was still wooden without any expression. In a blink of an eye, he lowered his head and stared at the chessboard.
His eyes were very dull and a little confused. He seemed to be completely immersed in the chess game, which made Fan Fei feel that although he looked at himself, he didn't really look at himself at all, but a little like Haikan's dazed eyes.
"Xiao Fan is here. Come on, help me see if I can win this game of chess?" When Xu Yifan saw Fan Fei, he immediately said with a happy face.
"This... Grandpa Xu, I don't know how to play chess." Fan Fei declined, and his eyes stayed on the old servant.
"It's okay. We don't know how to do it." Xu Yifan said with a smile, "Don't be modest. Listen to Jingjing, you have won awards at school."
Hearing Xu Yifan reveal his background like this, Fan Fei then put his eyes on the chessboard. After a few glances, his face changed slightly.
This is actually a game of Jianghu endgame, and it is the most complicated kind of chess endgame. It is the favorite trick used by those old swindlers.
And this game of chess is the "two guns, three soldiers and horses company battalion" in the "Fire Company" series, which is a complicated and improved version of the common "Three Soldiers Company". The chess game is more subtle, the changes are more complicated, there are more traps, and the deduction is more complicated. If you are not careful, you will lose the chess. It is a magic weapon that very few charlatans occasionally sacrifice.
Fan Fei's father, Fan Zhiran, has no other hobbies. He likes to smoke, drink some wine and play chess. Chess is different from playing cards. Generally, it is not about winning or losing, so Fan Zhiran, who has no money to gamble, is particularly good at this. He took Fan Fei to learn to play chess at a young age. When he was fifteen, it was difficult to find opponents in the village. He often stared at the old men who had played chess for decades angrily.
When Fan Fei walked out of his small village, he hardly met an opponent when playing chess among his high school classmates, and even won a runner-up in the school chess game, so he thought he was a chess master.
Of course, this only stops at chess, like Go. Fan Zhiran can't do it, and Fan Fei also doesn't like it. He only knows a little about some introductory knowledge, so he just stops.
When Fan Fei was a sophomore in high school, he once saw an old man playing chess with a person playing the endgame on the street. After watching it a few times, Fan Fei felt that the endgame was very sure to break, so he paid two yuan to kill the old man and a game. He wanted to win the ten-yuan gamble, but it turned out to be a difference. Defeated.
Fan Fei was unwilling and paid two yuan for the second game. As a result, he lost again. Fan Fei's stubbornness came up and played more than ten times in a row. The red and the black side chose several times each, which almost ruined the endgame. As a result, he spent nearly 30 yuan for nothing, which made him feel sad. From then on, he was no longer willing to challenge this kind of endgame on the street.
And the endgame of his day was the "Three Soldiers Company" in the "Fire Company" series. At first, it was very simple. It seemed that red chess was easy to win, but there were many changes and many moves, which made Fan Fei, who had some chess skills.
Later, Fan Fei learned the mystery of this endgame from Han Long. He knew that there are many ways to play this kind of chess, and the stalls have kept in mind all the changes. No matter how he plays, he can at least guarantee that he will not lose chess and money.
Fan Fei was also interested in this kind of endgame, so he searched for some endgame books on the Internet, studied it carefully for a few nights, and forcibly recorded it with his strong memory. This kind of "two guns, three soldiers and horses company camp" can hardly be found on the Internet. Fan Fei also occasionally saw it in a forum. At that time, he was very interested and forced to write it down.
So at this moment, as soon as he saw this game of chess, he recognized it at a glance and knew that this game of chess should be a game of chess according to the most standard method. After the black side and the red side played 37 steps each, the red side can use the red cannon to block the black side's cannon and seek the sum first.
Xu Yifan is red. At this time, he has already had some upper hand, and the old man opposite him has taken the wrong move. In the short term, it is nothing, but in the end, he will definitely lose, not chess.
Fan Fei has specially studied this game of chess and has already recorded all the changes with his strong memory. He can almost play it with his eyes closed, so he immediately made a judgment.
How's it going? Can you see that who can win? Xu Yifan said with a smile.
"Grandpa Xu, I think you can win this game." Fan Fei said the truth.
After listening to Fan Fei's words, the old servant finally looked up again and looked at Fan Fei.
This time his eyes are not dull, but he has obvious contempt, as if to say, "Little boy, you know nothing"...
Seeing this kind of look, Fan Fei frowned slightly, felt a little unhappy, and his hands suddenly itched.
People who like to play chess will feel a little itchy when they see exquisite chess games and strong opponents. They can't wait to kill a game. Naturally, Fan Fei is the same. Seeing that the old man despises him, he can't wait to replace Xu Yifan to kill him immediately.
"Oh? Then help me with a few hands. I'm going to untie a big hand and suffocate me to death..." Xu Yifan picked up the white eyebrows and said anxiously.
"Ah? Isn't that good? What is this old man? Xu Yifan's words hit Fan Fei's heart, but he also refused. At the same time, he looked at the old servant again and asked quietly.
"Oh, his name is Qimuge, and he is one of my chess friends. He doesn't like to talk, so just call him old man. Xu Yifan smiled and stood up.
"Oh, Grandpa Qi, don't you mind if I help Grandpa Xu?"
Fan Fei answered with a smile, but he was secretly alert, because he suddenly remembered Ding Shichen's bodyguard named Qi Feng...
Qi Feng's surname is Qi, and this Qi Muge is also surnamed Qi. They both belong to the Ding family. What will be the relationship between the two? Father and son? Grandfather and grandson?
How could this old man come here so coincidentally? He came here to play chess when he went to the banquet, and it seemed that he would eat here. What's the secret of this?
Did he come here to find out about the golden diamond ring?
"Sit down and have a good time. Don't lose. I made a bet."
Fan Fei was thinking about it. Xu Yifan had already pressed Fan Fei on the sofa. After hesitating for a moment, he suddenly said, "Forget it, this seat will be sold to you. If you lose or win, it's yours."
"How much is a game?" Fan Fei raised his eyebrows and asked warily.
