Chapter 380 Yu Shao's Answer
It was quiet and silent in the hand-talk room.
The two referees and the scorekeeper all subconsciously stretched their necks, held their breath, and looked at the chess board not far away with concentration and a hint of nervousness.
This time, it was Yu Shao's turn to play chess again.
However, Yu Shao did not make his move immediately as he did before. Instead, he stopped and looked at the intricate chessboard in front of him.
The black pieces and the white pieces seem to be intertwined with life and death, hiding endless and incomprehensible mysteries.
"At this moment in the game, I have the upper hand, but it is still impossible to defeat the black chess piece in one fell swoop."
Yu Shao couldn't help but recall what Su Yiming said to him a week ago after the first game of the national chess match.
"In your subconscious mind, you always consider the overall situation, but sometimes you end up suffering from it."
"Some chess moves, once made, are not for eternal merit, but only for fame!"
"Without this mentality, you won't be able to fully leverage the advantages of that move, and you may even end up making things worse."
"Only by sacrificing yourself can you see the only way!"
Yu Shao's eyes were calm and profound.
At this moment, he saw a chess move on the board.
Although this move was not similar to the previous one, it was also a way of surviving from death. In that seemingly hopeless road, there seemed to be a ray of hope! All the things in his past life and this life appeared in Yu Shao's mind one by one.
In his previous life, he defeated the enemy without fighting, and stood at the top of the chess world with his dense and delicate style of play and his exquisite and impenetrable endgame moves.
In this world...
Yu Shao looked at the chessboard calmly and began to feel every move carefully.
No longer relying on the experience and judgment of the previous life, it is like a beginner, feeling every shining chess piece.
He in his previous life was like a ghost, always existing in his heart, quietly telling him how to make each move, how to judge the value, and how to make choices on the board.
Even though he didn't play chess exactly as the ghost in his mind said, but -
Because this ghost has already told him how to play this move, even if he does not choose this move, he will involuntarily think in the direction of that move and be influenced by this voice.
Now, the voice of this ghost is getting smaller and smaller...
Until it becomes completely inaudible!
Looking at a chess game from another angle, looking at this chess game with a strange body, although there are similarities, there are more mysteries that he has never noticed! He made a move... completely different from his previous life.
“Click!”
Yu Shao's eyes were clear, and his right hand seemed to be pulled by something, almost uncontrollably reaching into the chess box! The chess pieces collided in the chess box, making a sound that echoed in the chess room!
The next moment, Yu Shao took out the chess piece with his right hand, his wrist hanging high, and then -
Thousands of feet down!
This move penetrates space and spans latitudes.
Two lives as a human, two lives as a chess player, everything is just to find that one move, to touch the higher realm of Go, and at this moment, that one move finally shines on the chessboard! Da! Fourteen columns and thirteen rows, sharp!
The sound of the move resounded throughout the chess room and echoed throughout the chess world! The mountains and rivers were silent, with only the echo of this move remaining!
"tip!"
Seeing this move, the two referees and the scorekeeper were stunned at first, and then a look of deep disbelief crept onto the faces of the three people at lightning speed!
"In this position, you actually... actually use a sharp point to attack?!"
Because the situation was not good, Jiang Changdong's face had been a little pale, and his forehead was already covered with sweat. At this moment, seeing Yu Shao's move, he was also stunned.
The next moment, his eyes widened rapidly, even to the point where they seemed to be about to jump out of their sockets! "Here, sharp?!"
In Tokyo, Japan, a young man with dyed white hair seemed to be shaken. He stood up slightly uncontrollably, his eyes widened in shock, and he muttered in disbelief: "Using a sharp point?!"
"It's unbelievable! Now, White's advantage is no longer obvious. Black has clearly fought back at the small eye, and the board has become confusing again!"
Behind the white-haired young man, his good friend also stared with his eyes wide open, his face filled with shock and confusion.
After a brief moment of silence, the Internet seemed to explode, and a flood of discussions broke out, and there was an uproar! "This move is too aggressive!"
"But it's not entirely true to say that this is a bad move, because the board has become very subtle, with too many possibilities. Under this situation, White has the possibility of capturing Black's big dragon in one fell swoop!"
"I understand, but it's too scary. There are so many changes on the board, and no one can predict them all. Even if this is a good move, no one would make it!"
"Go is too dangerous. Even the strongest player is not necessarily the winner, so the correct answer is to make the moves that you are sure of. This move... is he sure that he can kill the black chess piece?!"
There was a lot of discussion online, and in the official live broadcast room of the National Players’ Match, there were dense comments flying all over the place! Of course, the two players were completely unaware of these online discussions.
Jiang Changdong gritted his teeth, and after a long time, a fierce look appeared on his face. He finally reached into the chess box again, picked up the chess piece, and put it down quickly.
Yu Shao also immediately picked up the chess piece and placed it on the chessboard.
clatter.
clatter.
clatter.
The two-colored chess pieces began to spread out again, and the battle between black and white became more and more intense.
Seeing that the chess game continued, the noisy voices just now disappeared instantly and became silent.
Everyone was looking at the chess game nervously, not daring to even blink, completely immersed in the game!
After Yu Shao made that move, the board became confusing and extremely subtle. The pressure on the black pieces to deal with the isolated pieces was reduced a lot, but the white pieces that penetrated into the black formation posed a threat to the life and death of the black pieces! However, after more than 20 moves, Jiang Changdong handled the life and death very accurately, and even gave a painful counterattack to Yu Shao's white pieces!
but……
Gradually, everyone's expressions began to change uncontrollably.
Someone opened his mouth slightly, but no sound came out.
The music notator in the hand-talk room had beads of sweat on her forehead. Even though she was not involved in the conversation, she got goose bumps all over and felt terrified!
Ta, da, da!
The whole world was silent, except for the sound of chess pieces falling, which echoed for a thousand years!
"What is this?!"
Finally, after a long period of aphasia, the Japanese chess player with dyed white hair almost shouted out what was in his heart!
"The white chess piece actually had a hidden Golden Rooster Stand in the corner. After the black chess pieces surrounded the white chess pieces, Yu Shao not only did not make any more moves, but he even lost the initiative?!"
He turned his head to look at his friend behind him and asked, "Did you see the golden rooster standing on one leg in the corner of the white chess piece?!"
The so-called Golden Rooster Stand is a typical tight killing move in Go! This killing move refers to the tactic of placing a piece under the bottom line of the chessboard during a killing match, forcing the opponent to be unable to place a piece here due to tight air on both sides, thus forming a local killing tactic!
This kind of play is mostly used in corners and sideline areas, using the "no entry" rule to create deadly chess positions of "killing the unkillable" or "no return", which can often put the entire chess piece into a desperate situation in an instant! For most professional chess players, the chess position of "Golden Rooster Standing on One Leg" can be said to be immediately killed once this possibility exists, and this game is no exception!
Although the white chess piece can stand on one leg, the black chess piece has the means to surround and kill the white chess piece. Once the black chess piece attacks strongly, the white chess piece must make up for it!
But what was completely beyond his imagination was that the white chess piece, facing the siege of the black chess piece, did not make up for it in this way, but played a tiger move that made his scalp tingle! The friend behind the white-haired young man stared blankly at the computer screen, and the sweat on his cheeks slowly flowed down.
"See?"
He stared at the computer screen absentmindedly, muttering, "I don't know...what kind of calculation power and imagination are needed to make this move."
"I never dreamed that White would not make up for it, I never dreamed... No one would not make up for it, it shouldn't exist, even if someone came, they would think they must make up for it."
He swallowed his saliva and spoke again: "Too strong... No one can see this move except him, no one can!"
Under the gaze of the world, the black and white pieces on the chessboard continued to fall alternately. However, after the white pieces formed the killing pattern of "Golden Rooster Standing Alone", the situation of the black pieces was almost approaching collapse at a speed visible to the naked eye! Everyone stared at the chessboard, their hearts filled with an incomparable shock.
The black chess piece has obviously tried its best, but in this battle, it is no match for the white chess piece. Every time the white chess piece moves, it seems to be under a threatening pressure!
Each move was so powerful that it was terrifying! Quiet.
It's getting quieter and quieter.
As more and more chess pieces fell on the board, the whole world fell into an eerie silence!
“Click.”
In the chess room, Yu Shao picked up the chess piece again and put it down gently.
clatter.
Seven columns and seven rows, jump.
The sound of chess pieces dropping echoed in the quiet chess room.
Seeing this move, Jiang Changdong opened his mouth but couldn't utter a word. He looked at the chessboard in front of him in disbelief.
His face had turned as pale as paper without him knowing when, and his hair was already completely soaked with sweat.
It's the end.
The winner is decided!
Yes, this game of chess, from the layout to the middle game to the end game, was so fast that it completely exceeded everyone's imagination! Jiang Changdong's eyes twitched twice, and he clenched his back teeth tightly, staring at the chessboard in front of him. Even though he knew the outcome, he still couldn't accept it and tried to find a way to turn the tables.
Jiang Changdong's face suddenly turned red again, even his ears were completely red. He gritted his teeth and squeezed out a few words: "I..."
The words came to my lips, but they were so heavy that I couldn't speak at all.
He totally couldn't accept it.
It’s not that he couldn’t accept losing the game. In fact, he was mentally prepared for losing.
However, he couldn't accept losing without any chance to fight back.
After another two or three seconds, the remaining few words were finally squeezed out from between Jiang Changdong's teeth with difficulty.
“I lost.”
It was still quiet all around.
The female scorekeeper and two referees were still looking at the chessboard not far away where the game had ended.
They didn't even care about how Jiang Changdong felt after losing the game.
No one cares!
Not only them, but all the audiences around the world who were watching this game were also like them! Everyone was deeply shocked by the strength of the white chess pieces in this game.
It ended too quickly.
It was so fast that everyone was caught off guard! They had thought that this would be another peak confrontation, but in the end, the white chess piece almost crushed the white chess piece and unilaterally announced the victory! In this game of chess, the black chess piece didn't even have a chance to compete with the white chess piece -
No! He couldn't even struggle. There was no suspense from the beginning to the end. The game was ended cleanly by the white chess!
The whole world is silent. Although silent, it is better than a thousand words!
Finally, I don’t know how long it took.
"This is a chess game worthy of being deified!"
Someone finally couldn't help but yelled out excitedly: "Yu Shao not only deceived me, but also deceived the whole world!"
"I even suspect that even the God of Go would be fooled by that one move!"
"No one can see the golden rooster standing on one leg in the corner. They all think that if the black pieces surround the white pieces, the white pieces need to make up for the lost pieces. However, the white pieces do not need to make up for the lost pieces!!!"
"This miscalculation has far-reaching consequences for the subsequent battles. The shocking trap directly killed Jiang Changdong, the national player. White has no room to fight back at all!"
Some people looked at the chessboard in disbelief, their heads still buzzing, and they muttered absentmindedly, "How is it possible..."
"Jiang Changdong won the first game."
"Given Yu Shao's chess skills, it is reasonable for him to win the second game."
"But how could the second game turn out like this? Completely... unable to fight back?"
After a period of silence on the Internet, it finally exploded like a lit powder keg. Countless comments flew by frantically, almost filling up the entire screen!
The winner has been decided! Yu Shao was completely unaware of what was happening in the outside world, or the uproar caused by this game of chess.
Although Jiang Changdong admitted defeat, Yu Shao did not collect his pieces immediately, but instead looked quietly at the chessboard in front of him.
Although Su Yiming did not watch this game of chess on the spot like he did in the previous one.
But Yu Shao knew that Su Yiming must be watching this game from somewhere.
must.
Yu Shao has never been so sure.
Yu Shao looked at the chess game, and the ideas behind each move and how to deduce the changes were still clearly remembered in his mind.
This was a chess game that he would never have been able to play in his previous life. Perhaps his judgment of the chess shape, his value choices, and his regard for the thickness of the terrain would still be affected by his previous life.
These things cannot be given up and should not be given up.
And those inherent ideas of playing chess have completely changed.
Even those chess players who knew him well in his previous life, after seeing this game of chess, would never think that it had anything to do with him.
As if... reborn! "The me you see this time is Yu Shao of this life... and this is also the first time you see me."
"But it won't be the last time."
"This game of chess is my answer."
"Su Yiming, I'm looking forward to our next game!"
