Chapter 144: A Back-and-Forth Game
Now, my little cousin is one year older, but he is fighting with a young boy. This is worth pondering. Is it that the boy is letting the young boy go, hiding his weakness too deeply, or is the young boy just so powerful?
They would rather believe that their younger cousin was lenient. The fact is that the existence of one evildoer was enough. If another one came, they would be humiliated to the ground!
According to the speed of most people, a game of Gobang can be finished in three to five minutes at most. However, Li Li and Xiao Yan played this game for nearly half an hour. If you don’t know, you would think these two are playing Go!
In the beginning, the two of them made their moves very quickly, without even having to think. Gradually, their moves became much faster. The three bystanders in the front could still keep up, but in the later stages, they couldn't even keep up. Are they really too stupid?
The three of them couldn't help but look at each other. It turned out that the new sister was also a monster!
Even if the little cousin let them win, they wouldn't be able to hold on for so long. Besides, no one knew whether the little cousin let them win or not!
People say Gobang is a simple puzzle game, but no one should underestimate it.
There are huge plans hidden in the small rules. If you relax easily, you will easily fall into the opponent's trap. Beginners can often finish the game in a dozen or so moves. If you are really proficient, the time you spend is no less than that of other chess games.
"Sister, I accept the offer!"
Lu Qingyan placed the last piece, ending the forty-minute-long game of Gobang.
Li Li exclaimed in surprise, looking at the black and white chess pieces on the chessboard, and said softly, "I lost!"
There was a hint of frustration in the little baby voice, and he seemed very lost.
The loss was only temporary and fleeting. Li Li recovered immediately. She wanted to play another game and must win it. After all, she was a beginner. It didn’t matter if a beginner lost. She would definitely win next time!
"Sister, there are tricks to playing Gobang!"
Lu Qingyan quickly comforted his sister, "As long as you master the trick, you can do it too!"
"The secret?"
"Um!"
"It's very simple. I was exposed to Gobang earlier than you, but this is your first time. It's normal for you to lose. Otherwise, I would be useless!"
Li Li thought about it and it seemed to be true, and she became much happier!
The first move is to attack, the second move is to defend, use offense as defense, and use defense to wait for attack. Switch between offense and defense, think carefully about changes, fight for it first, and the earth will break and the sky will be shocked.
Defend by taking advantage of the outside, attack by gathering the inside strength, the Eight Diagrams are easy to defend, the Angles are easy to attack. Block and separate, be as steady as Mount Tai, do not think about competing for the first place, and victory will be as easy as ascending to heaven.
Fight for two in the first round, fight for three in the last round, keep three and don't rush, there are thousands of changes. Multiple first moves, carefully calculate the second first move, the key points of the five pieces, the order is in the front.
The oblique line is Yin, the straight line is Yang, the combination of Yin and Yang is hard to defend against. Three and four in a row, the easy to see is the bright, jump three and jump four, the dark sword is hidden deep.
When you place a piece, the enemy gains a soldier. Attack the key points and defend the key points. The situation has been formed, and defeat is imminent. Five pieces are the essence, and one piece determines victory or defeat. (From Baidu Encyclopedia)
"Shall we play another round?"
"good!"
After knowing the trick, Li Li nodded confidently. She must beat Brother Xiao Yan this time and she would definitely not lose!
The twins were making faces at the side. Now they were sure that their little cousin had definitely let them win. Of course, this was also because little baby Li Li was really amazing.
The second game started quickly, and Li Li was the first to make a move.
With the foundation laid by the first game and having learned the tricks of Gobang, Li Li's attack became much more powerful, and even Lu Qingze who was standing next to her could not help but nod.
This kid is so smart. He has grasped so many essentials in just one game. This may be the difference in IQ!
"What are you guys doing here?"
Lu Qingsong's voice startled the three onlookers, and when they saw the person coming, their eyes lit up!
"Brother, come and see, Li Li and Xiao Yan are playing Gobang, and Xiao Yan is about to lose!"
Lu Qingsong raised his eyebrows and said silently: Why do I hear some schadenfreude in your tone?
Lu Qingyuan curled the corners of his mouth. He had always remembered losing to a four-year-old cousin last year. Now that his sister was helping him get revenge, of course he was gloating.
My goodness, this time my cousin is definitely going to lose, no matter if he lets the opponent win or not, he is going to lose!
"Brother, you are finally back. I thought you were not coming back today!"
"Everyone is here today, how could they not come back?"
We finally got together, and if he doesn't come back, his dad will beat him!
"What's going on? Why are Li Li and Xiao Yan playing chess?"
Lu Qingze spoke briefly and then continued to watch the two little kids play chess.
Seeing this, Lu Qingsong did not ask any more questions and just stood by and watched the two guys play chess. It was clear that the white pieces had priority on the chessboard, and the one holding the white pieces was Li Li. It seemed that the winner of this game had already been decided!
Sure enough, within five or six minutes, the white piece in Li Li's hand landed on the chessboard, and his chubby little face broke into a huge smile, like a little sun.
“I win!”
"You're progressing so fast!"
He did not deny that he did let the game go to some extent in the first game, but it was not very obvious. If it was someone else, they might not even notice it. However, not only did his three-year-old sister notice it, she also played on par with him, which was enough to show how powerful his sister was!
In the second game, he thought about letting his sister win at first, but he held back in the end because he believed his sister could do it, and his sister wouldn't want him to let her win, as it would be disrespectful to her. Unexpectedly, his sister actually won, which was also beyond his expectations!
After all, he had calculated that it might take several games of Go for his sister to figure out the pattern. Unexpectedly, she figured it out after just the first game. Her style of play was something he could not have guessed. She is worthy of being his sister!
"Li Li is awesome!"
Lu Qingsong picked up the little guy and couldn't help rubbing his little face. A strong milky aroma filled his nose. This must be the special smell of the little milk dumpling!
“Brother Song!”
Li Li exclaimed in surprise.
"You two were so focused on the chessboard that you didn't even notice I came back. I'm so sad. I missed you so much!"
"I miss my brother too!"
"Sisters are the most caring indeed!"
Lu Qingyan had a stern face and turned a deaf ear to the words of his unreliable elder brother. Lu Qingsong slapped him angrily, saying, "This little brat can't have more expression. He should be careful or he will really become a moving iceberg when he grows up!"
"Where are grandpa and grandma?"
"Grandpa and uncle are in the study, and grandma has gone to the kitchen!"
Lu Qingsong's eyes lit up, he had not forgotten the tuna his sister caught when she went to the sea, this incredible luck really made him jealous!
