Chapter 20 I can actually play such a chess game

Zheng Qin looked at the chessboard in confusion. After a long time, he finally closed his eyes and lowered his head.

"I...I lost."

The whole place was still silent.

it's over……

It’s finally over…

Until this point, many people have not been able to completely extricate themselves from the game of chess.

This game of chess brought them too many shocks.

From the white piece's direct corner hanging at the beginning, to the white piece's first sacrifice of a piece to attack, and then to the white piece's pressure like a fairy from the sky, and the jump like a mid-air acupuncture, he gained the advantage.

As a result, the black pieces, which were at a disadvantage, fought back with a stunning counterattack, bringing the game into an unimaginably complex situation and gaining a chance of survival again!

Originally everyone thought that the black pieces had a chance to turn the tables, but they didn't expect that the white pieces would sacrifice a piece for the second time and attack fiercely. In the end, the black pieces suffered a tragic defeat as the big dragon was slaughtered.

Yu Shao looked at Zheng Qin opposite him and was silent for a moment.

In fact, he had never considered Zheng Qin as a real opponent until he finished the game of chess just now.

Although many of Zheng Qin's moves seemed too immature to Yu Shao, Yu Shao could see Zheng Qin's talent and...his love for Go from this game.

This made Yu Shao vaguely remember his past life.

Although Zheng Qin's current chess skills are far inferior to his own, after playing this game, Yu Shao has truly regarded Zheng Qin as an opponent worthy of his attention.

After a while, Yu Shao finally stood up and said, "I'm leaving."

Zheng Qin did not stop him, but just stared at the chessboard in a daze.

Yu Shao sighed inwardly.

He understood very well the feeling of being inferior to others in skills. After all, he had suffered countless defeats in his previous life to reach his current level of chess skills. In the end, he could only endure this kind of thing on his own.

Yu Shao picked up his schoolbag, nodded at Zheng Qin, then turned and left.

Seeing that Yu Shao was about to leave, everyone around the chess table spontaneously made way for him.

Until Yu Shao left, the entire chess room remained silent. No one spoke. Everyone looked at the chessboard like Zheng Qin, without saying a word.

They could all see that Zheng Qin had really given his all in this game, and it could even be said that he performed at a level far beyond his usual level.

But the result was... a huge defeat even worse than last time.

The opponent was a high school student who had neither received professional training in a dojo nor participated in amateur ranking competitions.

If that were the case, that would be fine.

In this game, Zheng Qin fell into a disadvantage, but he fought back and finally saw hope.

But then, the hope that Black had finally found was ruthlessly crushed by White. In the final battle, Black didn't even have the slightest ability to fight back and was completely... crushed!

They understood very well what a heavy blow this was to Zheng Qin, who was preparing to become a professional chess player this year.

"Zheng Qin..."

The middle-aged man in the jacket finally couldn't help but speak, and asked worriedly: "Are you okay?"

He was a little worried that Zheng Qin's mentality would be affected by today's game, which would in turn affect this year's professional Go exam.

Hearing this, Zheng Qin finally came to his senses.

He raised his head and looked at the man in the jacket, shook his head and smiled: "I'm fine."

"Are you really alright?"

The man in the jacket asked with some concern.

"It's really okay." Zheng Qin said with a smile.

"If it were me, I would be mentally disturbed if I was treated like this."

The man in the jacket was still a little skeptical: "And judging from your condition just now, you don't look like you're okay."

"Just now?"

Zheng Qin shifted his gaze to the chessboard in front of him.

On the chessboard, his black pieces had been killed to pieces by the white pieces, and the big dragon had been slaughtered directly. For anyone, it was indeed an unacceptable defeat.

“It’s really a wonderful game of chess.”

Zheng Qin looked at each chess piece and said, "I tried my best, played very seriously, and played far beyond my usual level, but I still lost in the end."

"If I say I didn't feel any shock at all, I'd be lying. When the dragon was killed just now, I was confused for a moment. I doubted whether I was really suited to playing chess."

"I had no power to fight back at all. It was as if... I was not an opponent of the same level as him. My moves seemed to be completely seen through."

Speaking of this, Zheng Qin's tone was a little weak.

"But when I re-examined the game, I no longer thought so."

Zheng Qin looked down at the chessboard, the chess pieces reflected in his pupils, shining brightly: "Although I lost in the end, this game was very exciting, wasn't it?"

"I can actually play such a chess game..."

"Maybe that's why I like playing chess so much?"

"This has nothing to do with the outcome of this game of chess."

Hearing this, Xu Zijin was stunned for a moment.

Zheng Qin raised his head and continued, "I want to become a professional chess player. I thought about it before, and I want it even more now."

"I will continue to hone myself and wait for the next game with the high school student named Yu Shao."

"Even if we lose the next round, there is always another round to come."

"One day, I will win."

After these words were spoken, everyone in the chess room was suddenly moved.

"Damn it, you deserve to be so good at chess! I was quite touched by what you said."

The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!

"Xiao Zheng, I believe in you. You can definitely become a professional chess player!"

"Zheng Qin, I believe in you too. After you hone your skills for a while, you will definitely be able to defeat that kid named Yu Shao!"

"Let that high school student know what it means to be in trouble over and over again!"

"Indeed, Xiao Zheng, come play a game with me and let me play nine pieces. When you become a professional chess player, I can brag to others that I have defeated professional chess players!"

Amid the laughter and cheers of everyone in the chess hall, Xu Zijin quietly left the chess hall.

Soon, Xu Zijin came to a black Bentley parked outside the chess hall, opened the back door and got in the car.

"Uncle Wang, go back."

Xu Zijin fastened his seat belt and spoke to the driver in the front seat.

"good."

The driver nodded, stepped on the accelerator, and the black Bentley started slowly and drove away into the distance.

Xu Zijin sat in the back seat, looking out the window at the scenery passing by quickly along the street, and Zheng Qin's words echoed in his mind again.

"Because 'I can actually play such a chess game, so I like playing chess so much'?" Xu Zijin murmured softly.

Not long after, the black Bentley stopped in front of a luxurious villa.

Xu Zijin got out of the car, said goodbye to the driver Uncle Wang, and walked towards the villa.

As soon as he entered the villa, Xu Zijin saw a young woman, about 25 years old, wearing a floral dress and with a beautiful face, sitting on the sofa in the living room on the first floor.

There was a chessboard in front of her and she was flipping through her phone.

Xu Zijin immediately called out, "Teacher Xia."

Xia Wen smiled and said, "You came back a little late today? Why, do you have a boyfriend?"

"no."

Xu Zijin shook his head and said, "I went to the Shanhai Chess Hall."

"Oh? Did you fight with that little brother named Zheng Qin? Did you win or lose?"

Xia Wen looked curious and said, "How is it? He is really good at Go, right? When he participated in the college Go competition, I was there as an invited guest. He played very well in the final."

“I haven’t played with him yet.”

Xu Zijin shook his head and said, "I just watched him play a game of chess with others."

"Watched a game of chess?"

Xia Wen didn't quite understand.

As Xu Zijin's Go teacher, she can only spare one day a week to teach Xu Zijin. After all, as a professional Go player, she often has competitions and is quite busy.

If the Xu family had not given her so much, she would never have agreed to become a Go teacher.

The last time she came to talk to Xu Zijin about chess, she mentioned to Xu Zijin that there was a chess player named Zheng Qin who was pretty good at it. He usually played chess at the Shanhai Chess Hall, and if she had time, she could go play a game with him.

Therefore, she was not very clear about what happened in the Shanhai Chess Hall in the past two days.

"Teacher, please take a look at this chess game first."

Xu Zijin didn't explain too much. He just sat opposite Xia Wen, opened the lid of the chess box, took out the chess pieces, and started to set up the chess pieces for Xia Wen.
