"There are few things in the world that can be absolutely certain. I'm just speculating, but we must try to know for sure."
"This means risking our lives."
Nezha chuckled twice. The two took turns placing their pieces, and soon the board was one-quarter covered.
"Master Li, you've lost again."
"Really? I don't see it. My stones here and here still have edges, and there are so many empty spaces left. How can you be sure I've lost again?"
Wu Xiang smiled silently. He had played chess for many years, and there were not many in the world who could beat him. Just by watching the game unfold, he knew Nezha was lacking the means to reverse the situation.
Nezha, however, was not convinced. He placed another piece and said, "Earlier, you said there are few things in the world that can be absolutely certain. So how can you be sure you'll win this game?"
Wu Xiang was momentarily stunned, then lowered his head and continued playing chess with Nezha.
