Chapter 113: That game of chess...who played it with whom?
"Who are you looking down on?"
The boy with acne on his face glared at Qiao Anli and said, "I'm leaving. The game is about to start."
Qiao Anli nodded, said goodbye to his friends, and walked towards his competition venue, Yaxuan Pavilion.
Walking into Yaxuan Pavilion, Qiao Anli glanced into the room and soon noticed Yu Shao, who was already sitting at table five, waiting for the game to begin.
"He is my opponent in the first round?"
Qiao Anli raised his eyebrows, then walked to the opposite side of Yu Shao, pulled out a chair and sat down, also waiting for the game to start.
About ten minutes later, the three referees finally walked into the competition venue. As the referees entered, the atmosphere in the entire room suddenly became more depressing and tense.
Finally, after another five minutes, one of the referees said, "It's almost time!"
"The game time is three hours per player. After the countdown, each player has one minute. The handicap is seven and a half points."
"Now, the two sides can start guessing who will go first."
Hearing this, Qiao Anli immediately reached into the chess box, grabbed a handful of white pieces and held them in his palm. Seeing this, Yu Shao also grabbed a black piece from the chess box and placed it on the chessboard.
"Six."
After finishing speaking, Qiao Anli raised his head, looked at Yu Shao, and said, "I play black."
Yu Shao nodded, put the chess piece back into the chess box, and exchanged the chess box with Qiao Anli.
"Please advise me."
Qiao Anli lowered his head slightly and spoke.
Yu Shao also returned the greeting: "Please give me your guidance."
The first round of the Dan Tien tournament qualifiers has officially begun!
"It's been four years since I got promoted to professional chess. I failed in the semi-finals last year. This year, I must become a professional chess player!"
Qiao Anli took a deep breath, his expression became more serious, he took out the chess piece from the chess box and put it down quickly.
Da! Sixteen columns and four rows, stars.
Yu Shao also immediately took out a chess piece from the chess box and gently placed it on the star position.
Four columns and sixteen rows, stars.
Qiao Anli quickly took out another chess piece from the chess box and placed it on the chessboard.
Sixteen columns and sixteen rows, stars.
Yu Shao followed closely behind and placed his piece at another star position.
Four columns and four rows, stars.
In the first four moves, both sides placed pieces in the star positions, forming the most classic two-star-versus-two-star layout. In pursuit of gaining momentum, it is easy to form a fierce fighting situation.
When he saw the black piece placed in the star position again, Qiao Anli did not continue to place the piece immediately, but looked at the chessboard and fell into thought.
In this game, both sides have three hours available and one minute countdown, so there is plenty of time and more time to think, even in the layout stage.
"Just use the three-star layout, expand rapidly, and fight him to the death?"
The triple star layout is his favorite layout because it is majestic, easy to form patterns and fights, and a game of chess is often thrilling and exciting.
"No... The three-star layout, with the pieces placed at a high position, leaves nothing on the sides. It can only support the big appearance, and it's a one-way road. Master also said that the three-star layout is too difficult to master. This is a dan ranking tournament, and we can't take it lightly."
"It's better to be safe and guard the corner."
After thinking for a moment, Qiao Anli took out the chess piece again and placed the black piece next to the star position occupied by the black piece in the upper left corner.
clatter.
Fourteen columns and three rows, Xiaofei.
Seeing that the black piece chose Xiaofei to guard the corner, Yu Shao didn't even think about it, and immediately picked up the chess piece from the chess box and dropped it at a high speed.
Da! Seventeen columns and seventeen rows, three three! Seeing this move, Qiao Anli didn't react at first, but after looking at the white piece in the lower right corner of the chessboard, his eyes widened little by little! "Click three...three three?"
Seeing this move, Qiao Anli was stunned.
For a moment, Qiao Anli even felt a little ridiculous.
Although it was just a qualifying match, considering that it was a qualifying match for the professional tournament, he did not take it lightly at all and could even be said to be very serious.
Even after just making his fourth move, he was repeatedly weighing the pros and cons of the layout, and ultimately did not choose to play the triple star, but instead adopted the most stable and cautious small flying corner guard.
As a result... the opponent actually hit 3-3 directly? "Is this really an amateur 5th dan?"
If you are not participating in the ranking tournament, the minimum requirement is amateur 5th dan to register, otherwise Qiao Anli really has to consider whether the opponent can play chess.
Qiao Anli breathed a sigh of relief, picked up the chess piece and put it down quickly.
Yu Shao also immediately placed his chess piece.
Ta-da, ta-da, ta-da…
The sounds of cheering continued to echo in the competition venue.
As time passed, Qiao Anli's expression began to change gradually.
"Why, how could this happen..."
Qiao Anli stared at the chessboard in disbelief, beads of sweat already oozing out of his forehead.
"After the white piece below has made the three-three, the black piece should have been extremely strong, but now it's leaking!"
"If this continues, the situation will not be good."
Qiao Anli couldn't help but grit his teeth. After thinking for a long time, he finally picked up the chess piece and dropped it at a high speed.
clatter!
Fifteen columns and twelve rows, sharp!
The white piece falls right after the black piece!
Ten columns and seventeen rows, turn! Both sides continued to place their pieces, and as the pieces continued to fall, Qiao Anli's expression began to become more and more ugly.
His chess playing speed was also getting slower and slower.
He originally wanted to break the deadlock at the top, but several of White's moves were completely beyond his expectations, and the situation began to gradually get out of his control.
"The problem of air leakage below is still unresolved, and the battle above is also unclear. The space on the left line of the black pieces... has almost been completely taken away by the white pieces!"
"We must, we must control the middle part and completely suppress the white piece. We must not let the white piece invade again!"
Qiao Anli reached into the chess box again and took out a chess piece.
"Otherwise, there really is no cure!"
Da! Seven columns and thirteen rows, clamp! The black piece had just landed, and Yu Shao glanced at the chessboard, then clamped out the piece and dropped it next to the black piece.
Eight columns and twelve rows, play! Seeing this move, Qiao Anli's eyes were slightly fierce at this time. He picked out the chess piece again and dropped it quickly on the chessboard.
The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!
Da! The crisp sound of the chess piece falling was heard!
Fourteen columns and ten rows! Charge! Faced with the threat of the white piece to capture the piece, the black piece chose to abandon two black pieces regardless of the threat, in order to seize the large area in the middle of the board and perish together with the white piece!
Yu Shao looked at the chessboard calmly, and soon he took out the chess pieces from the chess box with the sound of chess pieces clicking.
His wrists were suspended in the air, his fingers drooping.
The chess piece then slowly fell down.
clatter.
As soon as one piece was placed, the entire chessboard seemed to be rippled!
Ten columns and fifteen rows! Shoulder charge!
Seeing this move was like a bolt from the blue, and Qiao Anli was stunned for a moment.
Facing the most ferocious piece sacrifice of the black piece, the white piece did not launch the strongest counterattack, nor did it simply pick up the piece to gain a real advantage, but... directly attacked from below!
The entire fight was originally just a spark, but once this move was made, it has the potential to set the whole prairie on fire, and is bound to spread to the entire situation!
I originally thought that breaking the chess piece was the strongest counterattack, but as this shoulder rushed down, breaking the chess piece suddenly seemed... ridiculous! Qiao Anli stared stupidly at the black pieces in ten columns and fifteen rows on the chessboard.
His hand holding the chess piece even began to tremble slightly.
"This, this chess move..."
A chess game suddenly emerged in Qiao Anli's mind.
That was about a year ago. There was a chess record that caused a sensation on the Internet. Because the white pieces' moves were very similar to Shen Yi's, some people said that this was the only game that Shen Yi lost, which caused an uproar.
Later, the popularity of this game of chess gradually decreased, because after some people disassembled and reviewed the game, they found that the white and black pieces had a little too many slow moves in that game.
Bai Zi is very similar to Shen Yi, and his level is very high, but he is still not as good as Shen Yi.
And more importantly, if it was really Shen Yi who played the chess, then such a groundbreaking method of using the star position to support the corner would have been passed down.
But even so, that chess record is still discussed by many netizens, who are curious about who the two players are.
Even though both sides were a bit slow in this chess game, they still created a brand new pattern that shocked the chess world! And now the white piece's shoulder charge is exactly the same as the black piece in the previous chess game, where the black piece suddenly broke away from the white piece and tried to clamp it, triggering a four-line fight. Looking back now, apart from this shoulder charge, the black piece's moves in the previous chess game...
Qiao Anli stared at the chessboard blankly and couldn't help swallowing hard.
…………
At two o'clock in the afternoon, a boy with acne all over his face came out of the competition venue with a happy look on his face. As soon as he arrived at the hotel lobby, he immediately noticed Qiao Anli sitting on the sofa in the lobby.
"Old Joe, you won so quickly?"
He looked at Qiao Anli with a shocked expression, and said, "I thought I had won quickly enough after three hours! You beat me again, damn! Have you eaten? Let's go eat together."
Qiao Anli lowered his head, remained silent and said nothing.
Seeing Qiao Anli's expression, the boy with acne on his face was stunned.
He soon seemed to realize something, and asked in a low voice with some disbelief: "Old Joe, you... lost?"
Qiao Anli did not answer.
Although Qiao Anli did not answer, he already knew the answer to the question.
He suddenly asked in disbelief, "How is it possible? So fast? With your chess skills... who did you play against in the first round? What was your opponent's name?"
Qiao Anli still didn't answer.
Just as he couldn't help but continue asking, Qiao Anli suddenly said, "He Zhian, do you still remember... the Shen Yi defeat that caused a sensation on the Internet a year ago?"
"Shen Yi lost?"
He Zhian was slightly startled, not knowing why Qiao Anli mentioned this, but he nodded and said, "Of course I know, but it must be fake, it can't be a chess move by Shen Yi, what's wrong, why are you asking this?"
"I didn't say it was Shen Yi's move..."
Qiao Anli was silent for a moment before he spoke again, "I want to ask... if it wasn't Shen Yi who played the game, then... who played that game?"
