Chapter 433 Next
Still lost.
Everyone could see that in the first game, Wu Zhixuan might have underestimated her opponent and failed to exert her full strength, but in the second game, Wu Zhixuan really tried her best.
But even so, facing the girl, Wu Zhixuan was still helpless even if she tried her best.
"Take it again!"
When the girl heard Wu Zhixuan chose to vote, she couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, and a smile appeared on her face.
Seeing the chess game end, everyone around was still in disbelief. After they came to their senses, they looked at the girl sitting opposite Wu Zhixuan and couldn't help whispering in fear.
"The girl playing black chess was already beautiful enough, but the one playing white chess is even more amazing."
"How old is she? And she's a female chess player. Isn't this... too strong?"
"What's your background? Are you a professional chess player?"
"Even an ordinary professional chess player couldn't do the kind of play White did in this game, right?"
The people around were whispering to each other, glancing at the girl constantly, all trying to guess her identity.
Hearing the discussions of the people around him, Wu Shuheng's eyes darkened slightly. After taking a deep breath, he walked straight to Wu Zhixuan's side, looked up at the girl opposite Wu Zhixuan, and said, "I'll play the next game!"
When everyone heard this, the discussions stopped abruptly and they all looked at Wu Shuheng.
"He was with the girl who just lost the game, right?"
"After watching these two games, he's still going up? Is he better than the girl who just lost? Even though that girl lost, her level was still quite high."
"He thinks he can win? To get back at his friend?"
After hearing this, no one left. They all looked at Wu Shuheng and whispered to each other curiously.
Yu Shao couldn't help but look at Wu Shuheng again, but his thoughts were completely different from others.
In his opinion, Wu Shuheng was indeed much stronger than Wu Zhixuan, but it was bound to be very difficult for him to defeat that girl. Therefore, there was no such thing as Wu Shuheng trying to get back at Wu Zhixuan.
If he wanted to get back at the opponent, he had to be sure of winning, otherwise he would become a joke, but Wu Shuheng obviously did not have much confidence in winning.
Wu Shuheng wanted to play against his opponent simply because he had witnessed his opponent's chess skills and wanted to compete with him. It was a very pure desire.
"OK."
The girl played two games of chess in a row, but instead of feeling tired, she became addicted to chess. Hearing this, she smiled and nodded without thinking: "Come on."
Upon hearing this, Wu Zhixuan stood up with a somewhat gloomy expression, and without saying a word, she made way for Wu Shuheng and stood in the place where Wu Shuheng had originally stood.
As soon as Wu Zhixuan made way for him, Wu Shuheng immediately took his seat, took the chess box, and said, "Let's guess who goes first."
The girl nodded and quickly reached into the chess box, grabbing a handful of white pieces. Wu Shuheng immediately took out the black pieces and placed them on the chessboard, and started to guess who would go first.
The result of guessing the first move was that Wu Shuheng played white and the girl played black.
The two exchanged chess boxes, bowed their heads, and the game began again.
The girl quickly picked up the chess piece and made the first move.
clatter!
Seventeen columns and four rows, small eyes!
Wu Shuheng looked at the chessboard, looking as if he was facing a formidable enemy, with an expression of extreme concentration. After thinking for a while, he finally picked up the chess piece and placed it on the chessboard.
Four columns and sixteen rows, stars!
Ta-da, ta-da, ta-da…
The two sides kept making moves alternately, and soon formed a pattern of wrong small eyes against two consecutive stars. Then the girl hung high, and Wu Shuheng clamped two spaces low, thus opening the prelude to a big battle.
The second floor of the chess hall became quiet again. Everyone was staring at the chess game intently, watching every move of both sides, as if they could see the flashes of swords and shadows of knives constantly flashing across the chessboard.
Seeing Wu Shuheng's performance in this confrontation, many people showed a look of surprise on their faces.
"It's really not easy. That man's move was quite powerful. Every move was beautiful."
Someone simply stared at the chessboard and whispered to a friend beside him, "White was aggressively surrounding the black piece in the small eye area, but he actually sacrificed a piece and a thick position. How decisive."
His friend stared intently at the chessboard. He nodded slightly and said, "More importantly, even with extremely complex board situations, he can react instantly. His calculations are profound."
"Black spent so many moves, launching a strong attack, but failed to allow Black to play thicker pieces as they wished. White actually sacrificed pieces in the face of the siege."
"Although Black captured a piece of White's chess, White also gained momentum after sacrificing a piece. Black didn't gain any advantage, not to mention that White was even showing signs of a counterattack!"
“They’re all so strong!”
Ta-da, ta-da, ta-da…
The sound of chess pieces dropping continuously echoed in the chess hall.
On the chessboard, the black and white pieces continued to spread, and the situation began to become gradually complicated and unpredictable, causing those around to frown slightly and fall into deep thought as they followed the chess game.
"His thinking is very coherent, and his understanding is very profound. He never thins out where he should be strong, and never invades when he should attack. When he establishes a strong position, he swallows up the opponent without hesitation..."
The girl looked at the chessboard in front of her thoughtfully, and had a rough idea of Wu Shuheng's chess skills.
"He doesn't have any weaknesses. His style is well-rounded and balanced. He's much better than that girl just now, but... it's too textbook."
"If that's all, there's no way you can beat me."
The girl quickly picked up the chess piece again and put it down gently.
clatter!
Six columns and eight rows, fly!
Originally, everyone was immersed in the chess game, deducing the subsequent changes in the game, but when they saw the girl's move, their thoughts were interrupted.
"Here?"
Everyone looked a little confused, completely unable to understand why the black chess piece was placed here. They could only stare at the chessboard, frowning, and began to think for a long time.
Not only them, Wu Shuheng also frowned and fell into deep thought.
"fly?"
Yu Shao finally couldn't help but take a closer look at the girl opposite him. He was really surprised to see that the girl could do this.
This is a move that goes against common sense and experience. To find and play this move, one needs not only chess skills, observation, the overall situation, and calculation, but also unconventional imagination.
In other words, this is a technique used in the post-AI era.
Just like when humans challenge Go AI, the Go AI suddenly makes an incredible, even inexplicable move, and the human players have no idea what the AI is doing at first.
It is often only later in the game that human chess players realize the effect of a move and are deeply shocked by its ingenuity.
Because human chess players often rely on past experience to play chess, these AI techniques are completely moves that human chess players would never think of. It can be said that they have never thought that they could play in this way. It is completely in the blind spot of human chess players.
For example, AI's flying hook.
Later, as Go AI became more and more popular, most players constantly reviewed and analyzed the games, and gradually discovered these blind spots. They dared to try them out and even played them out in major competitions.
It’s just that these techniques are not fixed, they are not a set pattern and require certain specific patterns. Therefore, even though there was Go AI in the past and human players found many blind spots in the past, not all players can play these moves.
However, in fact, these post-AI era playing methods have been played more than once before the emergence of Go AI.
The difference is that Go AI relies on cold calculations and winning rates to figure out this move, while human players need to use unconventional imagination to figure out this move, such as the five-road shoulder charge.
And now this flying move has a faint feeling of the post-AI era.
After a while, Wu Shuheng looked at the chessboard and suddenly seemed to realize something. His expression changed abruptly, his teeth clenched, and a thin layer of sweat broke out on his forehead.
Wu Shuheng still didn't make a move. He stared at the chessboard and fell into long thought.
But the people around still couldn't figure out the purpose of this flying move, and their brows were getting tighter and tighter.
"this……"
Finally, after a while, someone's pupils shrank slightly, as if they had discovered something. They stared at the chessboard in disbelief and couldn't help but say, "This is..."
"What's wrong?"
Hearing this, many people nearby looked over in confusion and asked, "What's the big fuss?"
"White..."
The man stared at the chessboard, sweat breaking out on his forehead. He spoke with some difficulty, "It's impossible to gain a strong advantage. This move by Black has completely destroyed White's strong advantage!"
"How is that possible?"
Hearing this, everyone thought it was ridiculous, but they still looked at the chessboard again and began to deduce the subsequent changes in the game.
White pieces cut, black pieces attack, white pieces grow, black pieces grow, white pieces grow again, black pieces stick, black pieces dig...
The expressions of more and more people gradually changed. Someone who was originally smoking on the side, after figuring out the key to the board, subconsciously took the cigarette away from his mouth and looked at the chessboard in shock.
Finally, after a while, a fierce look appeared in Wu Shuheng's eyes, and he picked up the chess piece again and dropped it.
The girl opposite also had an extremely focused expression. After thinking for a moment, she also picked up the chess piece and placed it on Qiaomiao.
clatter!
clatter!
clatter!
More and more black and white pieces fell, and in the blink of an eye, more than thirty moves had passed.
The girl's expression was extremely focused from beginning to end, so focused that she even had a faintly overwhelming aura.
However, Wu Shuheng's expression was extremely ugly, with sweat constantly running down his cheeks, and every move he made was extremely difficult.
Finally, someone in the crowd stared at the chessboard and said, "It seems... he's no match for that girl either."
Everyone was silent, because they all knew that this young man was no match for the girl.
"Who is that girl?"
The burly man was sweating profusely and couldn't help asking.
Although he was not the person involved, even if he was just watching the game, he could feel the tremendous pressure pouring down on him.
There was still no one around to respond, because they didn't know the answer to the question either, which was also the question they wanted to know.
Time keeps passing.
"I lost."
Finally, after about ten minutes, Wu Shuheng looked at the chessboard, and finally spoke with difficulty, choosing to resign and admit defeat.
At this point in the game, the board is very stable and there is no chance at all. Even if Black can hold on until the endgame and win all the big and small endgames, it is still a big victory that is visible to the naked eye.
Therefore, I had no choice but to resign.
It was silent all around.
Wu Shuheng was already very, very strong. His performance in this game was enough to impress all of them. However, facing the girl, he had no power to fight back at all. His performance was even worse than Wu Zhixuan's in the previous game.
"Thank you for your advice."
The girl lowered her head and said to Wu Shuheng.
Wu Shuheng returned the greeting dejectedly: "Thank you for your guidance."
The girl smiled, and while collecting the chess pieces, she raised her head and looked at Yu Shao, as if she was playing a game and calling out, "Next."
Hearing this, Yu Shao was stunned.
Next?
Yu Shao pointed at himself and asked in confusion, "Me?"
Not only Yu Shao, but Wu Zhixuan and Wu Shuheng were also stunned when they heard the girl's words.
"Yes."
The girl nodded as a matter of course, and asked curiously, "Didn't the three of you come here together? They can play chess, so you should be able to play chess too, right? They all play, so why don't you play too?"
"I will, no..."
Yu Shao opened his mouth, but for a moment he didn't know what to say.
Saying that you can play chess seems like a natural thing to do, but saying that you can't play chess also seems a bit strange.
At this time, all the customers in the chess hall turned their heads and cast their eyes on Yu Shao.
Feeling the gazes of everyone in the chess hall, Yu Shao thought for a moment, and finally shut his mouth. He took a step forward, walked to the opposite side of the girl, and stopped beside Wu Shuheng.
Seeing Yu Shao walking to his side, Wu Shuheng finally came back to his senses. He blinked, looked at Yu Shao, and then looked at Wu Zhixuan who was still a little confused.
Immediately afterwards, Wu Shuheng stood up and quickly made way for Yu Shao. Yu Shao then pulled out a chair and sat opposite the girl.
"Do you want to play black or white?"
Seeing Yu Shao sitting down opposite her, the girl smiled and asked, "Or should we still guess first?"
"Guess first."
Yu Shao said as he picked up the chess box.
Hearing this, the girl was a little surprised, but quickly nodded and said, "Okay, then let's guess first."
None of the onlookers left; they all stayed where they were, ready to watch the game to the end.
After saying that, the girl reached into the chess box and grabbed a handful of white pieces. Seeing this, Yu Shao also took out two black pieces from the chess box and placed them on the chessboard.
The girl loosened her grip, and several white pieces fell onto the chessboard.
"Eight, an even number. You guessed it right."
The girl counted the pieces, then looked at Yu Shao and said with a smile, "I hold the white piece."
"I play black."
Yu Shao nodded, put the black piece on the chessboard back into the chess box, and said to the girl, "Please give me your guidance."
The girl opposite also put all the white pieces back into the chess box, then bowed to Yu Shao and said in return, "Please give me your guidance."
