Chapter 195: Living Towards Death
"If the performance on the court is the same as on the Internet, it might be a bit difficult..."
Hearing this, Yu Shao thought silently in his heart.
After playing several games of chess with Wu Zhixuan online, Yu Shao could clearly feel the difference between Wu Zhixuan and Xu Zijin.
Although Wu Zhixuan is not weak and can be called a talented girl, she lacks the fighting spirit to win or lose, and the chess she plays is often more flexible than ruthless.
The specific manifestation is that her observation ability is not sharp enough, and she is not tenacious enough after falling into a disadvantage. If the opponent's chess ability is similar to hers, even if she has the advantage, she will not be able to put too much pressure on the opponent.
If he was playing chess with Xu Zijin, he wouldn't be able to be so relaxed. Wu Zhixuan couldn't notice his previous mistake, but Xu Zijin might be able to.
However, because this game was just an online game, both sides had a weak will to win and it was just based on communication, so Yu Shao couldn't make a very accurate judgment.
Maybe because of her previous loss to Xu Zijin, Wu Zhixuan would make some changes in the game? The two chatted while playing, and because Wu Zhixuan had missed a big trick before, the game ended soon.
After Yu Shao and Wu Zhixuan briefly reviewed the game for a while, Wu Zhixuan's voice of farewell rang out in the headset: "Next time when you have time, I'm starving. I'm going to eat now. Bye!"
"bye."
Yu Shao said goodbye to Wu Zhixuan, then took off his headphones and placed them on the computer desk.
Thinking of the Go situation in this world, Yu Shao's eyes flickered.
"Not only are there many talented players in Japan and South Korea, but there are also many strong players in Europe and the United States. The Go world in this world is destined to never be boring."
Thinking of this, Yu Shao couldn't help but feel a little excited.
He has now embarked on a path that is completely opposite to that of his previous life, and if he wants to go far on this path, he must constantly compete with strong opponents and hone himself between life and death.
Fortunately, in this world, because of the strong chess culture, as a world-class chess event, there are many chess players from various countries, and there are many strong players.
There are not only those long-established chess veterans, but also emerging young chess players, all of whom are striving to reach a higher level of chess skills! Although there is no Go AI in this world, the chess world has begun to quietly change because of its appearance.
When one day, he makes up for his shortcomings, maybe he will really have the opportunity to step into the field that he has never touched in his previous life! After all, he is still young in this life, just turned seventeen! Yu Shao thought about it, picked up the phone on the computer desk, found Xu Zijin's WeChat, and typed, "I heard that you lost the game yesterday?"
The two were classmates, both professional chess players, and had known each other for such a long time. Since Xu Zijin lost a game of chess yesterday, he should at least ask.
After sending the message, Yu Shao put his phone down. Just as he was about to play a game, the phone on the table vibrated slightly.
"Huh?"
Yu Shao was a little surprised. He picked up the phone and took a look, and found that it was Xu Zijin who replied to the message.
Xu Zijin: “Yeah.”
Xu Zijin's answer was simple.
Yu Shao typed, "You're replying so quickly?"
The other party quickly displayed "The other party is typing..." and not long after, a message was sent back.
Xu Zijin: "I don't have many WeChat friends."
Seeing this message, Yu Shao was a little surprised and didn't react for a while. What's the connection between not having many WeChat friends and replying quickly? However, Yu Shao thought about it for a while and soon understood what Xu Zijin meant.
Because she doesn’t have many WeChat friends, when she sees a WeChat message, she will pick up her phone to check the message as soon as possible even if she has something else to do.
If Xu Zijin has a lot of WeChat friends, then if he is busy, even if he receives a WeChat message, he may not check the message immediately.
So the subtext of this sentence is that she was busy just now.
How is it like doing reading comprehension?
Yu Shao was a little speechless, but still a little uncertain, so he typed, "Were you busy just now?"
"Well, I'm reviewing yesterday's chess game."
Xu Zijin affirmed Yu Shao's answer, then sent a document to Yu Shao, and then sent another message: "I will win next time."
Yu Shao opened the file and found it was a chess record.
This was obviously the chess record of Xu Zijin's loss to Ni Shengang yesterday. After losing the game, Xu Zijin probably wrote down the record of the game when he returned home, so as to review it and avoid forgetting it after a long time.
…
…
On the other side, in a high-end residential area in Jiangling.
Seeing that Yu Shao did not continue to reply to the message, Xu Zijin put down his phone and looked at the chessboard in front of him again.
"Who sent the message?"
On the side, Chang Yan looked at Xu Zijin with a half-smile and asked, "When we were reviewing the situation before, someone sent you a WeChat message, but you always said you were busy and didn't reply."
"Yu Shao."
Xu Zijin looked very calm, and it was unknown whether his heart was as calm as his expression. He gently gathered the hair beside his ears and said, "He asked me if I lost the game yesterday."
"Yu Shao..."
Speaking of Yu Shao, Chang Yan couldn't help but think of the Demon Sword Style again. She shook her head and said, "What a pity. Not many people practice this large-scale style. I haven't met anyone who has used the Demon Sword Style recently."
As she spoke, Chang Yan suddenly showed a sly smile on her face, and said, "I really want to know how interesting the expressions of those guys will be when they find out that the Demon Sword Formula is not valid!"
"I played this once before in a match against Chuxiong Ding 3rd Dan."
Xu Zijin said, "If I hadn't played the magic sword, I might not have won the game, but Chu Xiongding Sandan didn't seem to notice anything and just thought that he didn't make a good move later."
"That's for sure, because he's not good enough at chess."
Chang Yan was not surprised at all and said, "The higher the chess skill, the faster you will find the problem. If you are playing against a high-level chess player, you can only use this method once at most."
"Once it is revealed in a match between high-level players, with so many people paying attention, I'm afraid that this change will cause heated discussion on the second day. On the third day, the fact that the demon sword is not real will be discovered. On the fourth day, it will cause a sensation around the world!"
After saying that, Chang Yan said with some emotion: "Yu Shao is such a freak. I have no idea what's going on in his mind. How could he think of rushing down, a move that would result in huge losses at first glance?"
Hearing this, Xu Zijin was silent for a moment.
Chang Yan noticed the change in Xu Zijin's state, smiled slightly, and said: "Don't worry, with your talent, it is definitely possible to catch up. We female chess players are not necessarily worse than male chess players!"
Xu Zijin said nothing, shook his head, and then looked at the chessboard again. After a moment's hesitation, he stretched out his hand to move the chess pieces on the board and said, "Just now you said that it would be more advantageous to cut off the right side here?"
"Yes, this is the winning move. It is because of this move that you failed to respond well and fell into a disadvantageous position."
Chang Yan also looked at the chessboard, nodded, stretched out her hand to place the chess pieces, and said: "The white piece is pointed here, and the black piece is cut. It seems to be an inevitable move, but it can actually be suppressed."
"town?"
Xu Zijin quickly realized the meaning of this suppression move, his eyes lit up slightly, and said: "So that's how it is, it seems to go deep into the enemy's formation, but in fact it forces the opponent to transform?"
"right."
Chang Yan glanced at Xu Zijin and nodded. Although she already knew that Xu Zijin had extraordinary comprehension, she was still a little shocked to see that Xu Zijin realized the profound meaning of this move so quickly.
"If the opponent is pushing too hard, you don't have to fight him to the death. You can just switch gears and kill one of your own and the other. If you play the game this way, you will have the advantage."
Chang Yan looked at the chessboard and continued, "It's normal that you didn't see this move before. I'm afraid no one below the seventh dan can see it."
"As for the town, the next change is..."
The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!
Xu Zijin stretched out his hand and was about to show the changes after Heizi Town when his cell phone suddenly vibrated again and a WeChat message came in.
Xu Zijin's hand suddenly stopped in mid-air.
Seeing this scene, Chang Yan burst into laughter and said, "You reply to the message first."
After hearing this, Xu Zijin withdrew his hand, picked up the phone again, opened WeChat, and took a look at the message.
After seeing this message, Xu Zijin was stunned.
"Um?"
Chang Yan keenly noticed the change in Xu Zijin's expression. She narrowed her eyes slightly and asked, "Zijin, what's wrong? Who sent the message?"
"Yu Shao."
Xu Zijin looked at his phone, then at the chessboard, frowned slightly, and said, "He said that if the 127th move is to take off the first move, it might be a great test for the white piece."
"One hundred and twenty-seven hands?"
Hearing this, Chang Yan looked at the chessboard in surprise.
What she and Xu Zijin had just discussed was the ninety-third move, and the one hundred and twenty-seventh move was the change in Xu Zijin's actual combat experience after he chose to forcefully attack his opponent and fought desperately with him.
Chang Yan was not surprised that Yu Shao did not see the change in the 93rd move. This was indeed a move that not everyone could see.
But... the 127th move? When Chang Yan saw the position of the black piece in the 127th move on the chessboard, he was stunned.
"Take it off here first... Dafei?"
Chang Yan was a little confused and didn't react.
If in this situation, he chose to take off first and go to Dafei, then the large group of black pieces in the lower left corner might die, right? Chang Yan thought about it carefully, and finally he was very sure that if in this situation, he chose to take off first and go to Dafei, then the life and death of a large group of black pieces in the lower left corner would be in question!
As long as the white piece launches a fierce attack on the black piece in the lower left corner, the black piece in the lower left corner may be killed!
So, did Heizi give up his pieces? No, if he did, he should at least be compensated, but what kind of compensation would that be? In this situation, Heizi's giving up his pieces would not benefit him at all, and would only increase the risk. It was simply unreasonable! Could it be that Yu Shao's foundation in life and death was not good enough? Xu Zijin was obviously puzzled by this, and he looked at the chessboard, his handsome brows furrowed tighter and tighter, and he also fell into deep thought.
"etc!"
Chang Yan looked at the chessboard, and after a while, she suddenly realized something.
"This is……"
Chang Yan looked at the chessboard, her beautiful eyes widened little by little!
"Look, I found the dead boy's loan!"
In Chang Yan's mind, it was as if there was a chessboard, with various changes in the order of the black pieces' escape, various complex attacks and defenses constantly emerging, and finally, she found the black piece's incredible way out!
"Think carefully, this group of black spots are either not dead... or even if they are dead, they are actually——"
"Dead but not stiff!"
Thinking of this, Chang Yan couldn't help but raise her head and look at Xu Zijin opposite her.
At this time, Xu Zijin was still staring at the chessboard with a frown on his face, and it was obvious that he had not figured out the black piece's intention of taking the lead.
"The changes after the first will be like this."
Chang Yan took a deep breath, stretched out her hand, and immediately arranged for Xu Zijin the changes after the black piece was released.
Watching the chess pieces continuously falling on the chessboard, Xu Zijin's brows furrowed more and more, but as he watched, he seemed to finally realize something and stood there in a daze for a moment.
"Whether this black piece dies or not, the situation will at least become evenly matched."
After a long time, Xu Zijin looked at the chessboard and slowly said, "This black piece seems to be abandoned but not abandoned, and seems to be dead but not dead."
"Um."
Chang Yan nodded and said calmly, "That's a very good move."
But her heart was not as calm as it appeared on the surface; it could even be said that there were turbulent waves in her heart!
Did Yu Shao fail to see the transformation of the Ninety-three Moves, or did he not only see that Move but also saw this Move of Da Fei, and felt that this Move was the key to reversing the situation?
Her move of suppressing the opponent can force the white pieces to switch and prevent the black pieces from falling into a disadvantage.
This big flying move to get rid of the advantage was enough to bring the black piece back to life from the disadvantage! "But this move is too extreme, even exaggerated, and is definitely not the way a normal chess player would think!"
“It’s like living towards death!”
