Chapter 234: Talking about the Dao

The day before the Yingjiao Cup final.

In a hotel near the Central Chess Institute, the sound of chess pieces being dropped continued to be heard.

Yu Shao sat in front of the chess table, staring intently at the chessboard in front of him. He kept reaching into the chess box, taking out chess pieces from the box and placing them on the chessboard.

Ta, da, da!

The crisp sound of chess pieces falling echoed in the room.

"This time, he actually jumped in and killed the lone wolf."

Soon, after making a few more moves, Yu Shao suddenly stopped, looked at the chessboard, and fell into deep thought.

He has reviewed the game between Su Yiming and Che Wenyu several times in the past two days.

After the black piece jumped out to kill the isolated piece, he saw the black piece's subsequent means of pressure. If he were to play the white piece, he would never let the black piece easily meet up with the white piece's formation.

Because Che Wenyu failed to notice that the black pieces had this move, when the black pieces successfully joined forces in the white formation, they were already far behind on the board.

Although the white piece still has some possibility of turning the tide, this is obviously beyond Che Wenyu's ability. Although the white piece tried to catch up, it failed to give the black piece a counterattack and was completely defeated by the black piece instead.

However, although he saw that after the black piece jumped out to kill the isolated piece, the black piece had subsequent means of pressure, but Su Yiming's jump to kill the isolated piece was beyond his expectations.

"I've really gotten stronger..."

Yu Shao lowered his eyes, looked at the chessboard, and thought silently in his heart.

Although he could feel that Su Yiming had become stronger from Su Yiming's last quick game in the Yingjiao Cup qualifiers, after all, Su Yiming's opponent was not that strong at that time.

However, players like Che Wenyu, Qin Lang and Le Haoqiang are by no means weak in chess.

Even if they gain some advantages first, as long as the advantages are not too great, the three of them are definitely capable of fighting back in a complex situation and forcing the opponent into a tough battle! Among the three, Le Haoqiang may be slightly inferior to Qin Lang and Che Wenyu. As for who is stronger between Qin Lang and Che Wenyu, he couldn't say for the time being.

Therefore, precisely because Che Wenyu is not weak, Yu Shao can feel the improvement of Su Yiming's chess skills from the game between Su Yiming and Che Wenyu.

"tomorrow."

The chess game was reflected in Yu Shao's eyes. He quickly took out the chess piece from the chess box and put it down gently.

"My opponent will be Su Yiming!"

clatter.

Thirteen columns and fourteen rows, flying.

…

…

In another hotel near the Chubu Chess Institute.

The sound of chess pieces dropping could also be heard constantly in the hotel.

"This move, flying and hanging in the middle of the abdomen, is the immediate end of the battle."

After making a few moves, Su Yiming stopped and looked at the chessboard in front of him. It seemed that the only thing he could see was the white piece flying in the air in the middle of the chessboard.

This move was beyond his expectations. He had never imagined that the white piece would suddenly break away from the battle in the corner and then retreat to the middle.

"He handled the terrain and momentum very well. In the second round, he could use brute force as Black to break into the gaps between White pieces and eventually kill the dragon... But in these three rounds, he could also use White to fly high and compete for the throne in the Central Plains."

After thinking for a moment, Su Yiming reached into the chess box again, took out the chess piece from the box, and placed it on the chessboard.

Then he took out another chess piece from the chess box.

"tomorrow."

Su Yiming looked at the chessboard with a calm expression. All the chess games he had played with Yu Shao appeared in his eyes like a revolving lantern.

The next moment, Su Yiming held the chess piece between his right fingers and gently dropped it.

"My opponent will be Yu Shao!"

clatter.

Two columns and fourteen rows, pointed.

…

…

Ever since the semi-finals of the Yingjiao Cup ended, the entire internet has been discussing the names of Yu Shao and Su Yiming, the upcoming finals, and... that three-three move.

Netizens originally thought that since it has been almost half a month and now that Yu Shao and Su Yiming have both made it to the finals, a professional chess player would definitely come forward in the next two days to give Dian San San a definitive verdict.

However, the development of the matter was completely beyond the expectations of all netizens.

No! Even though nearly half a month had passed and the third round of the competition was over, no professional chess player had come forward to officially express any opinions about Dian San San! All professional chess players remained shockingly silent! Now, everyone was completely aware that something was wrong.

What does it mean? This move of dot 33 is totally against the rules of chess, it can't really work, right? In the previous six games, no one could see any clues of dot 33?

Although Yu Shao and Su Yiming both made it to the finals by hitting three-three, many people were already slightly shaken in their hearts. But no matter how shaken they were, they shouldn't have been able to hit three-three!

If point 33 can be played, what is the chess theory? After point 33, not only does it give the opponent an outside position, but it also gives the opponent a thick position. And instead of playing the sticking move, it climbs in the second road, which loses points. Why can it be played?

Why?!

Thickness is not important? External strength is not important? Can two roads be climbed continuously?

The atmosphere on the Internet gradually became weird.

Moreover, as the finals got closer, this weird atmosphere on the Internet... inexplicably turned heavy.

There were fewer posts online discussing "Yu Shao", "Su Yiming" and "Dian San San", but the attention to the Yingjiao Cup finals began to surge in this silent suppression! Finally, in this silence, the day of the finals arrived.

At six o'clock in the morning, countless viewers poured into the official live broadcast room of the Yingjiao Cup. Even though there were still four hours before the start of the game, the number of viewers in the live broadcast room exceeded 10 million and was still soaring!

Although there are a large number of people, strangely, there are only a few barrages.

All the people who knew how to play Go were feeling heavy and complicated. They all sat in front of their computers, not even thinking about posting comments.

Even those spectators who don't know how to play Go were shocked by the unusual silence when they saw so many people in the live broadcast room. Although they didn't understand why, they were deeply shocked by the silent repression.

Quiet!

Just silence!

The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!

Time just keeps passing by.

At nine o'clock in the morning, Yu Shao finally got up, put on the suit he had to wear for the official competition, and after a quick wash, he left the hotel and walked towards the Central Chess Institute.

Today, there is only one chess room left that is still hosting the Yingjiao Cup competition.

From the fierce preliminaries to the brutal main tournament, all of this will eventually end in this last chess room with the outcome of the last game.

If the entire Yingjiao Cup competition is a chess game, then the qualifiers are the layout, this tournament is the middle game, and the final... is the final official move!

Soon Yu Shao arrived at the door of the chat room and looked into the room.

He came very early today, but inside the music room, two referees and a female music notator were already sitting upright in front of the referee's seat and the music notator's seat, having been waiting for a long time.

But in the center of the chess room, there was no one on either side of the sandalwood chess table, obviously Su Yiming had not arrived yet.

Seeing Yu Shao coming to the hand-talk room, the two referees and the female music notator glanced at him but did not speak.

Yu Shao didn't say anything either. He walked into the chess room, quickly came to the side of the chess table, pulled out a chair and sat down.

Not long after, Su Yiming appeared at the door of the game room.

Su Yiming has a tall and straight figure and calm eyes. He is also wearing a suit today, but the difference from Yu Shao is that he is wearing a white suit while Yu Shao is wearing a black suit.

Soon, Su Yiming came to the opposite side of Yu Shao, pulled out a chair, and sat opposite Yu Shao.

"We're all here..."

At the notation table, the female notator looked at the two figures, one in black and one in white. She suddenly felt dry in the mouth and swallowed subconsciously.

In the quiet chess room, the two of them sat opposite each other under a piece of calligraphy with the words "Sitting and Discussing Taoism" written in a flamboyant style. They were silent and the whole chess room was in silence.

She didn't know whether it was because one of them was wearing a black suit and the other was wearing a white suit, or because of some other reason.

But seeing the two of them sitting opposite each other, even though they both looked calm, she seemed to have a sense of confrontation. In this silent confrontation, there was an astonishing sense of murderous intent.

Feeling this solemn and murderous atmosphere, her breathing unconsciously became cautious.

"I have to record their moves and write down every move they make."

She didn't know why this thought suddenly popped up in her mind, and then she was shocked to find that after realizing this, she actually felt a heavy pressure coming over her.

At this time, the time was 9:50 and there were still ten minutes before the game started.

After entering the chess room, the two of them sat in silence without saying a word.

At this moment, in the official live broadcast room of the Yingjiao Cup, tens of millions of netizens are waiting in front of their computer screens, also silently waiting for the game to begin.

In the studio, Zhu Huaian and Zeng Chenlu were also waiting for the game to begin. Today there was only an enormous Go board in the studio. When the game began, they would place the pieces on the board.

In the review room, Le Haoqiang and other professional chess players gathered around a chessboard, staring at the board on the computer screen, even though no piece had been placed on it yet.

Similar scenes are happening all over the world at the same time.

Everyone was waiting silently for the last ten minutes. For some reason, everyone felt an inexplicable sense of tension and depression.

As everyone waited, these last ten minutes seemed particularly long.

Tick, tick, tick.

The second hand slowly turns and time passes slowly.

finally.

A referee looked at the watch on his wrist, then calmed himself down, finally stood up and said, "Game time is up!"

"The game time is three hours for each side, the countdown is one minute, and the black piece has a handicap of seven and a half points."

He took a deep breath, looked at Yu Shao and Su Yiming, and then said in a deep voice: "Two contestants, you can start guessing now!"
