I really don’t want to play Go!

Chapter 289 Su Yiming and Shen Yi are different

"Did you win or lose this round of the national team competition?"

After finishing the national team competition, Yu Shao returned to school the next day. As soon as he walked into the classroom and sat down, Zhou De came up to him and asked curiously.

"I let you down."

Yu Shao glanced at Zhou De and said, "We won again."

"What are you thinking about brother? Brother wants you to win!"

Zhou De looked like he had been wrongly accused. He slammed the table and said angrily, "Brother, do you still want you to lose? I'll be happy if you win!"

"My points in the national team competition are already very high. If I play for a while longer, I will be able to enter the main competition." Yu Shao said calmly.

"You deserve to die!"

Zhou De couldn't help but curse when he heard this.

Yu Shao glanced at Zhou De and said, "You're not going to act anymore, right?"

"I'm glad you won, bro!"

Zhou De finally exposed his dark and twisted mind, which was like a maggot crawling in a ditch, and said with a grin: "But you won too much!"

At this moment, the whole classroom suddenly became quiet.

"Li Kang is here!"

Zhou De immediately sensed danger, sat up straight and looked towards the podium, but he didn't see Li Kang, and his expression was a little surprised.

Li Kang didn’t come?

There are only two things that can make the entire Class 7 quiet instantly, that is Li Kang's arrival, and another thing, that is...

Zhou De looked towards the corridor outside the window, and saw a girl with a beautiful temperament and skin as white as snow looking towards him through the window.

In addition to Li Kang, there is another thing that can make Class 7 quiet down, that is - Xu Zijin passing by Class 7.

When Yu Shao saw Xu Zijin, he couldn't help but be a little surprised. When he saw Xu Zijin looking at him, he knew that Xu Zijin wanted to talk to him about something, so he stood up.

Then, under the angry gazes of the male classmates, Yu Shao left the classroom and walked to the corridor, where he stood in front of Xu Zijin.

"Why did you go back to school?"

Yu Shao asked curiously.

"There are no games these two days, so I came back to take a look."

Xu Zijin tucked a strand of hair behind her ear and said, "The day before yesterday, I played a game of chess with Le Haoqiang at the China-Japan-Korea team trials. I want to review it with you."

"Played a game with Le Haoqiang?"

Hearing this, Yu Shao was slightly startled. He knew that Xu Zijin had signed up for the China-Japan-Korea team competition, but he did not expect that Xu Zijin would actually compete against Le Haoqiang. He subconsciously asked, "Who won?"

"I lost."

Xu Zijin's tone seemed very calm.

"It's no problem to review it together."

Yu Shao couldn't help wondering, "But what about Chang Yan Jiudan?"

"Master went to Japan to participate in the King's Cup and has not been in the country for some time." Xu Zijin explained.

"Okay, let's go to the school activity room to review it now?" Yu Shao thought for a moment and said, "There should be no one in the activity room now."

It doesn’t really matter whether he attends classes at school or not. If he goes to review the situation with Xu Zijin today, he can completely skip classes.

"it is good."

Xu Zijin nodded slightly.

Yu Shao and Xu Zijin left the corridor together and soon arrived at the activity room. They pushed open the door and walked in, then found a chess table and sat down opposite each other.

"In this game, I play black and Le Haoqiang plays white."

Xu Zijin took out the chess pieces and quickly laid out the chess game between himself and Le Haoqiang, hand by hand.

Yu Shao watched the progress of the chess game, and as he watched, a hint of surprise appeared in his eyes.

In this game, both sides started with two consecutive stars against star small eyes, then Xu Zijin pointed to three-three, and Le Haoqiang chose a continuous pull variation facing the three-three.

During this period, he and Xu Zijin also played several games of chess online, and the chess skills displayed by Xu Zijin in this game were much stronger than when he faced him, and at one point, he forced Le Hao into a desperate situation.

However, there was still a clear gap in strength between the two. After falling behind in the middle game, although Xu Zijin tried to catch up, Le Haoqiang still controlled the situation.

After the game was over, Xu Zijin, playing black, lost by five points, and ended the game. However, Le Haoqiang's victory was not so easy, and he must have been sweating coldly.

After Xu Zijin finished arranging the chessboard, he raised his head and looked at Yu Shao.

“It’s actually pretty good.”

Yu Shao did not review the game immediately. He pondered for a moment and asked, "But why can't you play at your best level when playing chess with me?"

Hearing this, Xu Zijin fell silent for a moment.

After a while, Xu Zijin finally said, "I... am a little scared."

"Fear?"

Hearing this, Yu Shao was stunned.

"In the past, I had a poor chess skill and knew nothing about it, but now I can gradually see clearly every move you make."

Xu Zijin lowered his eyes slightly, looked at the chessboard, and said: "Although I try very hard to play well, but facing you, I still hesitate, worried that you will make a strong move, and then I will be confused."

Hearing this, Yu Shao didn't know what to say for a moment.

Xu Zijin also looked at the chessboard and stopped talking.

After a moment, Yu Shao withdrew his gaze from the chessboard, looked at Xu Zijin with a serious expression, and said, "Reviewing this game is secondary. Let's play another game."

Xu Zijin looked at Yu Shao, pursed her lips, and finally nodded slightly.

Soon, the two put the chess pieces on the board back into the chess box and started guessing. In the end, the result was that Yu Shao played black and Xu Zijin played white.

Yu Shao quickly picked out the chess piece and made the first move swiftly.

Hey!
Seventeen columns and seventeen rows, three three!
Seeing Yu Shao's first move of placing three pieces on the chessboard, Xu Zijin thought for a moment, then quickly picked up another chess piece and placed it on the chessboard.

Four columns and four rows, stars!

"Watch your opponent's moves carefully and move forward with all your strength!"

Yu Shao looked at the chessboard in front of him, his mind recollecting the countless games he had played against the Go AI in his previous life. He reached into the chess box again, picked up the chess piece, and put it down quickly.

"That's what I did!"

……

……

At the Southern Chess Institute, a game room is hosting the preliminaries for the Grand Chess Tournament.

Table number 18 has been surrounded by a crowd of people, and everyone is watching the chess game intently.

At the table, Su Yiming was staring at the chessboard intently. After a moment, he reached out and picked up the chess piece, then gently put it down.

Hey!
Seven columns and thirteen rows, broken!
Sitting opposite Su Yiming was a man with graying hair, probably around forty-six or forty-seven years old.

The man's expression was not relaxed. After seeing Su Yiming's move, he thought for a long time, then looked up at Su Yiming, and finally took out the chess piece and dropped it at a high speed!
Hey!
Seven columns and six rows, dig!

"Yin Qisheng, the ninth dan, is digging here, and his methods are also ruthless and brutal."

"If the white piece wants to use its sharp edge to suppress the black piece, the black piece may have a strong hand that it can grow... I wonder how Su Yiming will respond to this?"

"In the game between him and Yu Shao in the Yingjiao Cup final, he did have the style of Shen Yi, but he was just in great form in that game. Did he just perform well by chance?"

"Yin Qisheng has been playing Go for so many years, so I guess he's still experienced..."

Looking at the situation on the chessboard, everyone had different thoughts.

"Click!"

Not long after, Su Yiming reached his hand into the chess box again, and the chess pieces inside the box suddenly collided with each other.

Then, in the next second, Su Yiming's right hand clamped the chess piece and quickly dropped it onto the chessboard!

Hey!
Five columns and twelve rows, jump!
Seeing this move, everyone around was stunned.

"This..." The next second, everyone's expression changed in shock. Many people even felt goosebumps all over their body, staring at the chessboard in disbelief!

"This move?!"

The black pieces' formation in this area was extremely terrifying, and the pieces coordinated with each other, but this white piece went straight into the black pieces' formation, which was tantamount to suicide!

but……

Seeing this move, Yin Qisheng's ears turned completely red, his fists clenched tightly, and his knuckles began to make "cracking" sounds!

The people around were staring at the chessboard in amazement.

"If the black piece jumps to kill the white piece, the white piece will most likely abandon it. There are already many black pieces on this side, and wasting too many moves just to kill this white piece is not worth it for the black piece!"

"But if we ignore the white piece and it lives too comfortably, the black piece will also not be able to accept it!"

"This jump may seem like a suicide move, but in fact it contains a chance to turn the world upside down. Once this move is used, the black piece's original space becomes a burden, and it can no longer compete with the white piece!"

Some people had beads of sweat on their foreheads because they were putting themselves in Kuroko's perspective.

"Unexpected!"

"I have no idea how to respond to Baizi's move!"

As soon as one piece is placed, the whole chessboard changes instantly!
After a long time, Yin Qisheng finally took the black piece out of the chess box and quickly placed it on the chessboard!
Su Yiming looked at the chessboard seriously and attentively, and soon he picked up the chess piece and put it down!
Hey!
Hey!
Hey!
Black and white pieces began to fall alternately on the chessboard, and as more and more pieces fell, Yin Qisheng's expression became more and more ugly and more and more unbelievable.

The surroundings became extremely quiet, and everyone was completely immersed in the fierce battle between black and white, as if they could feel the solemn and murderous intention of the chess game!

Time passes minute by minute.

at last.

I don’t know how long it took, but under the gaze of everyone, two black pieces fell onto the chessboard.

Yin Qisheng, resign in the middle of the game!

"Bai Zi, wins..."

Even though the game was over, everyone was still staring at the chessboard, unable to recover from the shock.

"So strong..."

"After that jump, the gap became bigger and bigger. In the end, the outcome was decided. Black had no chance to turn the tables. He could only... resign..."

Su Yiming bowed his head and saluted Yin Qisheng. After collecting the chess pieces, he slowly stood up and left the game room under the gaze of everyone.

They watched Su Yiming's back go away until he completely disappeared, and then subconsciously turned their gaze back to the chessboard, even though the chess pieces on the board had been put away and there was no piece left.

But they seemed to be able to still see the complicated and intense situation just now, as if they could still see how the white piece's jump had landed, how it had turned the whole situation upside down, and how it had defeated the black piece!
After a long time, everyone finally turned their gazes and looked at Yin Qisheng.

Yin Qisheng sat quietly at the table with his eyes closed. No expression could be seen at all. However, someone keenly observed that Yin Qisheng's fists, which had been tightly clenched, were still...

Still not loosened.

Everyone was in mixed emotions and finally left the game room one after another.

As many people were walking, the chess game played by Su Yiming came to their minds again, and then they remembered the previous chess game played by Yu Shao, and their mood suddenly became more complicated.

A thin man in a suit, about thirty years old, finished watching the game of chess, left the game room, and walked towards the cafeteria of the chess academy with a lot on his mind.

Just then, Fang Haoxin, who had just finished his meal, walked out of the cafeteria.

After seeing the man, Fang Haoxin hurriedly called out politely, "Hong Leju 9th Dan."

Hong Leju nodded absentmindedly. After walking into the cafeteria, he suddenly seemed to think of something and turned to look at Fang Haoxin's back.

However, Hong Leju said nothing in the end. He slowly withdrew his gaze, and after getting his meal in the cafeteria, he found a seat by himself and sat down to eat in silence.

While eating, a voice sounded from behind Hong Leju.

"Teacher Hong Leju, what's wrong? You look so worried?"

A sturdy man with a bald head, who was probably in his thirties, came over with food and sat down next to Hong Leju with a smile.

Hong Leju came back to his senses, glanced at the man beside him, and said, "It seems that Mr. Lu Bo, you won the celebrity match again today?"

"It was just luck. Teacher Li Jun is really tough. I won by 1.5 points in the endgame. I haven't won a title in two years. I should win one this year."

Lu Bo smiled, took two mouthfuls of rice, and then seemed to remember something. He asked curiously, "You don't have a game today? Why are you here at the chess academy?"

"I went to watch the chess game between Su Yiming and Teacher Yin Qisheng."

Hong Leju replied: "After all, he might make it to the title match and become my opponent. I have to test his chess skills in advance."

Hearing this, Lu Bo paused while eating and asked, "Who won the game?"

"Su Yiming."

Hong Leju replied.

"He won?"

Hearing this answer, Lu Bo was not too surprised. He smacked his lips and said, "These two newcomers this year are really scary. Fortunately, I am a celebrity, otherwise I would probably feel pressured."

After that, Lu Bo couldn't help but ask curiously, "What do you think of the game between him and Teacher Yin Qisheng?"

"..."

Hong Leju was silent for a moment, then said, "With one move, the originally evenly matched situation suddenly turned for the worse. Teacher Yin Qisheng wanted to close the gap, but the gap became wider instead."

"is it?"

Lu Bo picked up a piece of braised pork with chopsticks and put it into his mouth. While chewing, he said, "So that move was the winning move? Did you see it?"

"No."

Hong Leju was silent for a moment, then said, "Not only me, but also Teacher Min Ze and Le Zhixuan 8th Dan didn't see it."

Hearing this, Lu Bo, who was chewing the braised pork, stopped and looked at Hong Leju.

Hong Leju lowered his head slightly, as if he was thinking back to the chess game just now. He was actually a little embarrassed and said, "I'm afraid no one can see through that move except him."

Hearing Hong Leju's words, Lu Bo was stunned.

"Teacher Yin Qisheng must be very upset. After all, he won the Grand Chess Master Championship three times in a row fifteen years ago. This year he wanted to fight for the Grand Chess Master title one last time, but he lost to Su Yiming in the preliminaries."

Hong Leju said slowly: "I'm afraid that Teacher Yin Qisheng is still sitting quietly at the chess table and is unwilling to leave."

Hearing this, Lu Bo felt a little complicated.

"Su Yiming, a chess player whose chess style is very similar to Shen Yi..."

Lu Bo finally sighed and said, "It's really amazing to be like Shen Yi. He must have studied a lot of Shen Yi's chess records, right?"

"Do not."

At this moment, Hong Leju suddenly said, "It's different."

"no the same?"

Lu Bo was a little surprised. He couldn't help but take another look at Hong Leju and asked, "What do you mean? His style of playing chess with a big focus on the middle of the abdomen and fighting to the death is the same as Shen Yi's, right?"

"This one does look like him, but he...seems to have something that Shen Yi doesn't have."

Hong Leju said, "What I'm talking about is not just modern stereotypes."

"Isn't that natural?"

Lu Bo was a little confused and said, "He is not Shen Yi after all."

"...That's true."

Hong Leju nodded, finally picked up the chopsticks and started eating.

"Speaking of which, the selection for the China-Japan-Korea team competition is almost over."

While eating, Hong Leju suddenly said, "He will most likely be selected, which means he will most likely play a game of chess with Yu Shao."

"Although this game is not a formal match, it will determine who will be the main general."

"I want to know the outcome of this game of chess."

Hong Leju picked up a piece of braised pork with chopsticks and said, "Or rather, I want to see it with my own eyes."

Lu Bo paused for a moment, and finally said slowly: "If I didn't have a game that day, I would go and watch it."
