I really don’t want to play Go!

Chapter 404 Yin is no longer Yin, Yang is no longer Yang!

Chapter 404 Yin is no longer Yin, Yang is no longer Yang!
"Hang!"

"Hang!"

A blond, blue-eyed reporter paced excitedly back and forth in the room.

"At this point, the weakness of Black's stones in the center has turned into a strong position, while White's strong position has become an isolated group!"

"Not only that, the large moyo (territory) that White created in the center has been completely destroyed, and even the White stones in the upper left corner are surrounded!"

"After the hook, Black completely took control of the game's rhythm and reversed the situation. White is in danger!"

……

"After a game of chess, the landscape changes color, like a secret hidden in an orange, revealing the cycle of life and death, like observing a ko through a rotten axe handle, revealing the opportunity for earth-shattering change!"

Inside the Southern Chess Academy's press room, Ding Huan was engrossed in his computer, frantically typing away at the keyboard, excitedly writing real-time chess commentary!

"Even now, I don't know how all of this happened. Forgive my poor chess skills, I have so many questions that I can't answer!"

"However, I can sense that every move after that small knight's move might contain the essence of Go that countless players have pursued throughout their lives!"

"My question must lie hidden in every single move, in the strategic planning behind it all!"

Why? I don't know.

"Let's leave these problems to the professional players!"

"However, even though I didn't know or understand it, it didn't stop this game of chess from bringing me unprecedented shock and emotion!"

"Yu Shao's moves are unpredictable and exhilarating. From the small flying technique to this hanging move, there are nearly thirty moves in total. It's like a celestial being descending from the heavens, turning yin and yang upside down!"

"This game of chess is destined to be remembered for all time!"

"Faced with an almost irreversible trend, Black, alone, faced White's million-strong army, and surprisingly..."

"A miracle has been created!"

"In the previous battle, White went all out, with amazing courage and a huge sacrifice of pieces, and finally swept into the center of the board, eventually forming a great momentum to counterattack Black. It was truly shocking!"

"This battle was a lopsided one, with Black deceiving the enemy and defeating a million opponents with only tens of thousands of troops. In the end, Black used a clever strategy to launch a long-distance raid and burn White's pieces to the ground!"

"Looking at this chessboard, I was even momentarily transported to a magnificent scene of a raging fire stretching for thousands of miles!"

"Amidst this sea of fire, there was only a young general riding a white horse. He was clad in silver armor and helmet, full of vigor and spirit. He pointed eastward with his whip and laughed as he talked about the life and death of the thousands of soldiers on the mountain!"

After writing these words, Ding Huan took a deep breath, stood up excitedly, and continued to tap on the chessboard!

"This game of chess uses the chessboard as the battlefield and the star array as the beacon towers, depicting the fierce battles of war and writing a chapter of dragon blood and black and yellow!"

"This game of chess is not a battlefield, but it surpasses even the battlefield!"

"The fierce battles and sincere pursuit of knowledge in the game of chess are beyond my ability to describe, even if I, Ding Huan, were to give my all. I would feel unworthy to put pen to paper. No amount of words could fully express the profound mysteries of the game!"

"This is the best copy I've ever written! Thank you, Su Yiming, thank you, Yu Shao!"

"Thank you to them for playing such a wonderful game!"

……

Japan, Tokyo.

"It's reversed."

A group of professional chess players stared blankly at their computer screens, their expressions unusually moved.

"One day, I will play a move like that too!"

The short student suddenly shouted loudly, his voice echoing throughout the broadcast room.

When everyone in the broadcast room looked at the short intern, he was completely overwhelmed with emotion.

He excitedly waved his fist and shouted, "So cool! So cool! Yu Shao, so cool! I'll be his fan forever!"

"No, don't speak too soon."

Beside him, the slightly taller student shook his head. He pushed up his round-framed glasses, trying to appear calm and composed, and also more mature.

But even though he tried his best to suppress it, his face still revealed an unconcealable shock.

"It's not over yet, White, you still have a chance!"

……

"Why."

Despite the dramatic change in the situation, Su Yiming had somehow regained his composure.

He stared intently at the chessboard, trying to find the root cause of his disadvantage.

White's position is already incredibly solid, like an iron plate, and is completely unshakeable. Everyone would think it impossible to change the overall situation, including Su Yiming.

White has taken control of the central area and withstood Black's all-out attack. Black has many weaknesses, and White should launch a counterattack next. Even if Black responds perfectly, the two sides should decide the outcome in the endgame!
This is the script everyone expected!
Or rather, this is what should have happened!
But at this moment, however unbelievable it may seem, the situation has indeed changed!
However, compared to the current precarious situation, Su Yiming was more concerned about...

why?
"Why, when my white stones in the center were already so solid... why did the situation reverse?"

"This kind of overall situation cannot be changed so easily with just a few dozen moves!"

"If I hadn't made any mistakes, this wouldn't have been a miracle, something that could turn the tide!"

Before Su Yiming's eyes, the game of chess seemed to be playing backwards, move by move, even back to the moment before the move that opened up the whole game, it was still playing backwards!

Although the chess pieces on the board were intricately arranged, to Su Yiming they seemed to follow a mysterious pattern, possessing a faint connection, and emitting a dim glow.

"It didn't start with Xiao Fei, absolutely not!"

Su Yiming stared intently at the chessboard, seemingly forgetting that he was in a game, focused solely on finding the solution to the problem.

Or rather, at this moment, the outcome of the game is no longer important to him; what matters more is finding the answer to the problem.

Almost everyone believed that this battle was started by Xiao Fei's unpredictable move, but Su Yiming directly denied this.

"If it wasn't Xiaofei, but before Xiaofei, then where exactly was it?"

"When did the chessboard reveal a secret that I failed to perceive and comprehend?"

Su Yiming fell into deep thought, his fists clenched, forgetting the game, forgetting victory or defeat, and forgetting the passage of time, immersing himself in the myriad mysteries of the chess game!
Suddenly, Su Yiming was slightly taken aback.

He seemed to understand something.

"Start from here?"

Su Yiming couldn't help but lean down, as if wanting to see more clearly. But this move by Black was far too early, so early that it almost spanned the entire game.

Although it was unbelievable that this move came so early, Su Yiming was absolutely certain at this moment.

"This is it, it must be here."

Su Yiming looked at the chessboard, and the game was no longer playing backwards in front of him, but rather the moves were being played one after another as if on repeat.

Su Yiming's expression grew increasingly serious.

"I see……"

"Perhaps, everyone is wrong."

"Not me, not all chess players today, but all chess players throughout history!"

Su Yiming stared intently at the chessboard and finally realized the root of the problem.

"Although our understanding of thickness has deepened after the '33' rule, we haven't completely broken free from our constraints!"

Even Su Yiming's heart was trembling at this moment!
"It's not as simple as just having a connection and no breaks!"

"The traditional concept of 'thickness' may actually be inefficient. Just like in this game, my seemingly unshakeable, solid outer influence... became inefficient due to repetition!"

"Previously, all the players thought that a strong position should be used for fighting, but he... prioritized overall balance!"

The saying goes, "Strong forces cannot encircle empty spaces," but this is not an absolute truth!

"When he discovered through calculation that thick potential energy could be converted into thirty squares of solid space, he did not hesitate to use it to enclose the territory, directly breaking the dogma that 'thick potential energy can only be used for attack'!"

Su Yiming stared at the chessboard in shock, even muttering to himself. This…

How can it be?

"And perhaps it's not just that!"

Su Yiming finally turned his gaze away from the chessboard and looked at Yu Shao opposite him, gazing at that young and somewhat immature face!
“In the past, splitting two pieces on the third line was considered a thin position. Now, he dares to split on the fourth or even fifth line because his subsequent moves prove that the flexibility of this ‘thin shape’ is even higher than that of a thick position!”

"Previously, no matter what, thick was still thick, and thin was still thin."

"But now."

"thickness--"

"It's upside down!"

"All the games played by the previous players were wrong!"

Su Yiming stared blankly at the chessboard, feeling a little uneasy.

This is what truly shocked him!
Previously, although everyone had a deeper understanding of thickness and thinness, believing that thickness does not necessarily mean invincibility and thinness does not necessarily mean insurmountable, the distinction between thickness and thinness remained clear.

But now, the order of thickness and thinness is reversed—

This is something beyond everyone's imagination. The way Go is played is not just changed, but completely subverted!

After today.

Yin will no longer be Yin, Yang will no longer be Yang, black and white will be reversed, Yin and Yang will be interchanged!

This is the answer to the question that has troubled everyone in this game of chess!

This answer is so shocking, so unbelievable, and so revolutionary that it's hard to believe!
Although the situation was not good, after finally figuring out the key to the problem, Su Yiming was overwhelmed with a mix of shock and disappointment, as well as... incredibly complex emotions, including an uncontrollable joy!
"The thing I searched for over 180 years ago, and which I never found before my death."

"it's here."

"Yes, right here in this game of chess."

"I saw……"

"Go, a higher realm!"

"Thank the gods..."

"Let me come here more than a hundred years later to personally experience this game of chess!"

"I am extremely honored."

Time slips away, little by little.

Su Yiming hesitated to make a move.

No one knew what Su Yiming was thinking. Almost everyone simply thought that this long period of deliberation was because Su Yiming had fallen into a disadvantageous position and was facing a difficult choice.

Tick, tick, tick.

The clock hands keep turning relentlessly.

Unbeknownst to him, Su Yiming had composed himself. He focused intently on the chessboard, having grasped the key to the previous shifts in the game, and began to seriously consider the subsequent developments.

Half striving for victory, half seeking enlightenment.

Now it's time to fight for victory!

"Su Yiming, given the current situation, what will you do next?"

Some people watching the live broadcast had their hearts pounding, instinctively holding their breath and not daring to make a sound.

“Every move Su Yiming made was excellent. I just can’t understand why the board would change so drastically.”

"Although White is at a disadvantage, there is still a chance to fight back, but..."

"How exactly will Su Yiming continue this game?"

"The deliberation has been going on for too long. Su Yiming's time is almost up!"

The live stream chat was filled with comments.

This period of deep reflection was incredibly long.

However, no one was surprised by this, after all, everything that had happened on the chessboard before was too unbelievable, and no one has figured out the answer to the question yet.

Apart from the two people in charge.

Soon, Su Yiming's three hours of available time were all used up.

The countdown has begun!
last minute.

Fifty-nine.

Fifty-eight.

However, Su Yiming was focused on the chessboard and seemed completely oblivious to the countdown timer.

"The initiative has been completely lost."

"The thickness and thinness are reversed; his seemingly thin chess piece is actually more substantial than mine."

"Looking back at this game now, in fact, from beginning to end, Black was never at a disadvantage."

"I know how difficult it is to win under these circumstances."

"On this already somewhat narrow chessboard, is there really any way for me to survive, is there really any room for White to fight back?"

Su Yiming's expression grew increasingly solemn as he felt the immense pressure emanating from the chessboard, even though he had little confidence in it.

"If I try to seize the initiative now and go head-to-head with White, I'll only be doomed."

"In fact, if Black attacks, White might not even be able to make a living group."

"However, simply dodging is useless. If White wants to find a way out, it must do so through a desperate battle; otherwise, it will only be strangled!"

"We must use a surprise attack to win; we must force him to fight me no matter what."

"If we lose, all of White's pieces will be wiped out."

Su Yiming's mind raced through all the previous moves of the game, and his expression grew increasingly serious.

Time is now in its final countdown.

Five seconds.

Four seconds.

"This is a path where a slight misstep will lead to an abyss from which there is no return."

How long can I hold out?

"How far can I go on this path of pursuing higher levels of chess skills?"

time--

three seconds.

Two seconds!
