After speaking, he nodded to Xia Liang and the others with a smile, turned and left.

"I found this store by accident. Do you know that their food is delicious and the scenery is good, but not everyone can eat it. I always have to leave something here and it must be suitable for everyone. Only the eyes of the shopkeeper can enter."

While thinking about Xia Liang's introduction, Changge walked towards the house.

"The first time I came here, my grandfather brought me here. His old man drew a picture here before he was able to come in for dinner."

With that said, Chang Ge pointed to the "Dragonfly and Lotus Picture" on the wall on one side of the hall.

"That's the one."

Looking at the painting, Xia Liang was a little surprised.

"Your grandfather is Ye Yuqiu, a master of Chinese painting?"

"Yes."

Changge didn't expect that he would be exposed in such a way.

She also didn't want to think about how many people in the entire Long Kingdom dared to call themselves the masters of traditional Chinese painting, and the seal on the painting was so obvious, it would be strange if others didn't know it.

"What about you, how did you get into this store by yourself, and you can also bring us with you."

Soon Xia Liang returned to normal. He didn't care about the painting. What he was more curious about was how Changge himself entered the store, and Sister Xu's attitude towards Changge was also relatively good.

"Me? I was lucky enough to play a piece of music that caught the eye of the boss and came in."

Changge felt that Xia Liang was a little strange, he didn't pay attention to traditional Chinese painting but paid attention to himself.

Xia Liang didn't believe her words. She looked at the famous paintings all over the wall and the delicate patterns carved with sandalwood.

Take a look at the pear blossom wooden table placed in front of the four bamboo windows, as well as the Guqin, Go, pen, ink, paper and inkstone on the table.

In addition, the plum, orchid, bamboo, and chrysanthemum placed next to each table of rice paper all reveal the low-key luxury and elegance of the whole room.

"This place is mainly open to first-time visitors. If they leave works that are eye-catching here, they will be invited upstairs. Now I will take you upstairs to have a look."

Then Changge made a gesture of invitation in the direction of a big pillar.

"Wait a moment!"

Xia Liang stopped in her tracks, and looked at a pear-blossom table with a chess game on it.

"Changge, do you know who played this game of chess?"

Xia Liang stared at the chessboard intently.

"This game of chess has always been there, but it seems to be a broken game, and no one has been able to solve it until now."

She couldn't figure out that Xia Liang would be interested in a game of chess.

"This game of chess is very interesting. I want to try it and see if it's okay."

Xia Liang hasn't used it much since he got the god-level chess skill in the previous mission, and now there happens to be a game of chess that is more interesting, and he naturally doesn't want to miss it.

"But this game of chess has not been solved for many years, you..."

Changge was a little hesitant to speak, this game of chess is something that many self-proclaimed masters can't solve, let alone Xia Liang.

And she is well aware of the rules here, if Xia Liang can't solve this game, Sister Xu will not give her face, and will definitely drive a few people out.

"Little brother, if you want to try, it's naturally possible, but if you can't solve it, don't blame me for not giving Ms. Ruan face and asking you to leave."

Sure enough, he came to whatever he was afraid of. Hearing the voice behind him, Chang Ge wanted to persuade Xia Liang to give up.

In the end, Xia Liang nodded slightly and walked towards the endgame.

Hearing someone playing chess downstairs, several middle-aged people upstairs couldn't sit still, and all looked down. The person who knew the chess was a young man in his early twenties, so he was no longer interested.

Xia Liang sat down, looked at the endgame in front of him, he picked up the white piece, twitched his eyebrows lightly, and thought for a while, then he put the white piece back into the pouch and picked up the black piece again.

"Huh? This young man is interesting." On the third floor, an old man with gray hair whispered softly. It was precisely because he saw this that he became a distinguished guest here and went up to the third floor.

With Shan Juvenile's actions, the old man knew that this young man was not easy, and there would be a place for him here in the future.

Sure enough, Sister Xu also nodded secretly because of his action. According to the store's rules, no matter whether it was a coincidence or he was hiding everything, she couldn't drive Xia Liang and his party out.

Xia Liang is hesitating right now, he sees the ingenuity of this game of chess, on the surface it seems that the number of black pieces is more than the number of white pieces, but in fact the vacant points are that the white pieces can be eaten by any random move Large patches of sunspots.

It is precisely because of this that this game of chess will continue in the future.

On the surface, most people would think that the sunspots would win, but in fact it was the white ones that won, which was why Xia Liang changed his pieces not long ago.

It's just that although I understand the chess game, it is not easy to solve it.

Because no matter where the sunspots go, there is bound to be a piece of sunspots that will be eaten by the white ones.

"Break and then stand."

After saying these words, Xia Liang's eyes showed some certainty, and after thinking about it for a while, he began to settle.

But his words made the old man on the third floor's eyes light up and muttered.

"Break and then stand, yes, why didn't I think of it."

I think the old man understood the game of chess back then but couldn't make a move, because he also knew that no matter how he played the sunspots, he would be eaten, so he hesitated. For so many years, he stayed in Xijing City just to find a way to crack it.

It's just that I didn't expect that my heart disease for many years was solved by a young boy today. It really is the waves of the Yangtze River pushing the waves forward. The old man can't help but feel a lot of emotion.

After Xia Liang started to make moves, he took a few steps without thinking and he was sure of winning. With the last move, the chess situation became completely clear, and there was no suspense that Hei Zi won.

"Untied."

Xia Liang looked at Sister Xu with a gentle smile.

"It's indeed solved. Mister is really a fearsome young man. Mr. Xu was ignorant before and hoped Mr. Haihan."

After speaking, sister Xu bent down.

"how can that be?"

"Someone really solved this game?"

"What is the background of this young man?"

...

Obviously, the people on the second floor were not calm when they heard this, because Xia Liang was young, they looked down upon them a little, so they didn't pay too much attention.

Seeing the direction of the chess game, now that it is untied, they can't help feeling a little regretful.

"Miss Xu is too polite."

Seeing Sister Xu's apology, Xia Liang didn't understand how she could pay so much attention to a game of chess just on a whim.

Sister Xu said respectfully after bowing.

"Sir and gentlemen please follow me."

Saying that, sister Xu walked forward.

The four people who originally thought they would be seated on the second floor were taken to the fifth floor. As they left, those people on the second floor couldn't sit still and ran down. How the inverted chess game was solved.

"That's not right. I remember that at the beginning of this game, Heizi had a big chance of winning. Why did Heizi win if he solved it?"

"That's right, I also remember that Heizi should have won from the beginning."

"Could this young man be with the boss here..."

"You mean he went through the back door? That's impossible. You know how strict the rules are here."

"Then why is this young man..."

...

"It doesn't matter so much, we'll see how many floors he went to later."

After speaking, they all looked towards the elevator, and when they saw that it stopped on the fifth floor, they were all silent.

The fifth floor had never been opened, and Xia Liang and the others were the first to enter, which meant that the endgame was really solved, but they couldn't understand it.

"It seems that this young man really has a good relationship with the boss here!"

This was said by one of the middle-aged men with a big belly. He was jealous that Xia Liang could get the treatment he didn't have, so he said it on purpose.

"Nonsense, I watched and solved this chess game."

"Old Yang!"

"Old Yang!"

...

Hearing this voice, several people said respectfully.

"Since the chess has been solved, I should go back. You are all among the top figures in the capital. Don't be too petty, lest people laugh out loud."

The person who spoke was the old man who had been paying attention to Xia Liang on the third floor.

He glared at the man who had just said sour words and left here.

Seeing this situation, the rest of the people also left angrily.

But in a short while, only Xia Liang and four people were left in the whole house.

But they don't know what's going on downstairs.

"I wonder if you have the honor to know your name, sir?"

Sister Xu said respectfully beside Xia Liang.

"Sister Xu doesn't have to be like this, my name is Xia Liang."

"Mr. Xia, the fifth floor has never been opened to the public in Shangjing City. You are the first one. From now on, you will be one of our most honored guests. No matter which city you are in, as long as you come to eat in the store, you will be free. .”

"hiss!"

"hiss!"

These words startled Wen Qiong and Changge. Just looking at the first floor, you can tell that this place is not simple, but it is even more shocking to think of the fifth floor. Looking at the magnificent decoration and the famous paintings hanging on the wall through the ages Plus the endless back garden outside the window.

Anyone can see that this place is unusual. You must know that not everyone is qualified to own such a large piece of private land in the center of Shangjing, and the boundless back garden can only be seen on the fifth floor.

Besides, Changge is a regular customer here, and it is the first time she knows that this store has a branch, and from Sister Xu's tone, it seems that there are this store in the whole Xia Kingdom, how can this not be surprising.

Listening to Xiao Tangtang's stomach growling, Xia Liang said.

"Okay, thank you, when can we have dinner?"

Compared with this, it is obvious that eating is important.

"Mr. Xia, wait a moment, I will go to remind you now, please rest first, there are various pastries and fruits on the coffee table in the room, please feel free to enjoy them."

Sister Xu bowed again before leaving.

Seeing Xia Liang's unmoved appearance, Sister Xu respected her even more. She is indeed a person who can solve the game of chess, even if she is young, she should not be underestimated.

Now she is not only going to urge the cook, but also to pass the news of the chess game and Xia Liang back to Beijing.

"I wanted to invite you to come here for dinner to express my gratitude, but I didn't expect to get your favor in the end, and I became your invitation."

Looking at the various chrysanthemums outside the window, the strange rocks with different mentalities, the rustling bamboo forest and the rippling lake water, Changge couldn't help but sigh.

"Next time I'll invite you guys!"

Listening to Changge's seriousness, Xia Liang smiled and continued to peel the oranges for Xiaotangtang.

At this time, sister Xu came back.

"Mr. Xia, your meal is ready, can I pass the food now?"

Seeing Xia Liang nodding, sister Xu began to serve the dishes.

"The dishes are ready, please take your time."

After speaking, Miss Xu withdrew.

"Wow, Uncle Xia, the food here is delicious."

Just after taking a bite of sweet and sour pork ribs, Xiao Tangtang's excited voice rang out.

"It's really good, Xiaotangtang likes to eat more."

As Wen Qiong said, she also picked up another piece of ribs for Xiaotangtang.

At this time, Chang Ge filled a bowl of soup and brought it over.

"Little Tangtang, be careful with the soup. This one is hot, but I've tasted it before and it's not bad. You should like it."

Xia Liang was also very happy to see a few people eating happily.

"Since you like it, eat more."

...

two hours later

"Uncle Xia, I feel like I can't eat anymore."

Xiao Tangtang looked at the dishes in front of her with some hesitation.

Xia Liang gently rubbed Xiao Tangtang's stomach.

"If you can't eat it, you won't eat it."

The taste here is really good, not to mention the contented looks of Changge and Wen Qiong.

Even Xiao Tangtang ate a lot of vegetarian dishes, and she usually needs to be coaxed to eat vegetarian dishes.

"Let's rest here for a while!"

Xia Liang looked at the trees that were about to be scorched outside. Although it will be November soon, the weather in Xijing is still as hot as ever, especially going out at this time, it is really a pain.

"Fish! Uncle Xia, there are fish and water."

Xiao Tangtang was lying on the window looking at the lake outside the window, very excited.

Wen Qiong, who was sitting next to her, was so frightened that she hurriedly grabbed her.

"Then, Xiaotangtang, do you want to go fishing or go on a cruise later?"

"Boat, I want to take a boat!"

Xiaotangtang's eyes lit up and she returned immediately.

"It's good to take a boat, I want to go on a cruise too."

Wen Qiong also nodded, and handed Xia Liang a glass of water after speaking.

Xialiang took the water and nodded,

"Okay, since you all want to go, let's go boating when the weather cools down."

Xiao Tangtang threw herself into Xia Liang's arms, kissed her cheek and said.

"I know Uncle Xia is the best."

"Little heartless, is sister Changge not good?"

Squeezing Xiaotangtang's little face, Changge said pretending to be wronged.

"Hey, okay, Sister Changge is as good as Sister Wen Qiong."

The little guy finished speaking without offending anyone, and even gave Wen Qiong a flattering smile.

Wen Qiong was very pleased to see it.

The few people just sat on the fifth floor feeling the breeze, and chatted for more than half an hour before leaving the private restaurant and continuing to walk towards the playground.

In the playground, although the weather is not as hot as before, it is a bit sweltering, and the huge crowds in the playground make it a little breathless.

Seeing this, several people went straight to the shipyard, and the four rented a painting boat and boarded the boat.

Because of being on the water, the previous dryness and heat disappeared a lot, and the slight wind brought a little bit of water, which made people cool and comfortable.

It is precisely because of this that several people have leisure time to enjoy the scenery.

However, standing on the painting boat looking at the clear lake water and the lush woods not far away, although it can be regarded as picturesque, it always feels that the embellishment of flowers is missing.

It was also at this time that they felt that the private restaurant was more unusual. After all, there were colorful flowers blooming in both the front yard and the huge backyard.

Thinking of these long songs and Wen Qiong will lose the nature of swimming in the lake.

Only Xiao Tangtang looked curiously at the water flow under the boat, and Xia Liang, who had been holding Xiao Tangtang and resting her eyes with her eyes closed, still had some interest in watching it.
