Who asked him to play Go!

Chapter 15 · This boy has the power of a warbler

"Hello, uncle, I often hear my master mention you."

Yao Yuhang smiled with his teeth and glanced at the desolate-looking uncle, including Shi Yu.

Perhaps because he was just like his master, Yao Yuhang also had some unpleasant qualities about him, and his eyes were filled with the smell of gunpowder.

"Did anything happen between Teacher Bi and Teacher Yi?" Shi Yu asked calmly.

"It's nothing, it's just a reminiscence between senior brothers. If there is anything, it's probably that I personally sent you off, Lao Bi, during the provincial competition, right?"

As if being mentioned was a thorn in his heart, Teacher Bi trembled, but he couldn't show it in front of Shi Yu, so he could only smile and nod: "Yes, my skills are not as good as others, and I haven't seen him much since then." It’s up to you, senior brother.”

"Of course, there are only a few chess games that can change your life. Once you miss it, you will never have the chance again."

At this point, the old man in Tang suit named Yi gave Shi Yu a thoughtful look: "Little brother, you have to play the chess game carefully tomorrow. Don't use the spoon, especially during the countdown."

Spoon is a Go term that refers to a low-level mistake, also known as spooning.

However, this is just a traditional Go term. From 2023 onwards, the eagle move is gradually replacing "spoon" and has become an exclusive term for turning victory into defeat and turning magic into decay.

After saying this, Shi Yu immediately understood that in that crucial provincial competition, Teacher Bi lost with a spoon in the end.

"The same goes for classmate Yao, be careful not to hit the spoon." Shi Yu reminded him brightly.

"伱!" Yao Yuhang frowned.

Old Man Yi simply waved his hand to calm his apprentice's anger, his expression still full of superiority:
  "Classmate Shi, I saw your chess game today and it was very thoughtful, but this is wrong. You will know what to do tomorrow."

Shi Yu remained silent.

Seeing that the atmosphere was getting worse and worse, Teacher Bi tried to change the subject: "Tell me about what happened after you won that game. I remember that you said you were going to Puhai City for development."

"Yes, I still had the dream of becoming a nine-dan chess player and representing the country at first. But after arriving in Urhai, I found that there are too many strong people. Even though I was a genius in my hometown, I am just a nobody here. , not competitive at all.

So I naturally opened a training class and became a teacher.

It later proved that this path was the right one. If I had continued to work hard on my career path, I would have accomplished nothing. But when I turned my attention to teaching chess, my business quickly became prosperous. Lao Bi, you should live with your mother. The little house left for you?

Forget it, let's not talk about hurtful things, let's talk about the current situation. "

Old Man Yi turned his eyes to Yao Yuhang again and touched the child's head.

"This kid is a treasure I picked up a few years ago. During this time, I can already play chess with professional chess players who have just decided to play chess. We win and lose."

"Are you able to play chess with a professional chess player who has just been determined?" Teacher Bi was shocked.

Before, he thought Shi Yu was very stable. After all, with Shi Yu's level, he was fully qualified to play a handicap game with a professional chess player.

This kind of chess ability is enough to look down on these junior high school students.

As a result, now you tell me, a monster has appeared that can compete with professional chess players?

Divide first, which means fair duel, guess right or wrong based on your ability.

Giving first means letting the opponent move first, but there is no need to stick to the target.

Tiemu is a Go rule used to balance the initial winning rates of black and white. Chinese rules post 7.5 units, while Japan and South Korea use 6.5 units.

Once there is no need to stick to the goal, it means that the side with black going first has an advantage of several goals from the beginning.

Jimu chess sounds very small. You must know that the game between masters is often won or lost by half a game. If this is not close to the goal, just don't play this chess.

This is enough to illustrate the huge gap between the first and the first.

When Teacher Bi fell into despair, Shi Yu was seriously judging Yao Yuhang's strength.

Being able to play a first game with professional chess players who have just decided on a certain level means that
  This boy has the power of a warbler.

Huh? Why doesn't it sound like it's not too strong?

"Classmate Shi, I wish you good luck. We'll see you on the field tomorrow." Returning to the room, Teacher Bi slumped on the balcony.

The street scene was still charming, but there was no joy left in his eyes, only numbness.

"You shouldn't drink, otherwise, I can practice with you now." He slapped the back of his head in annoyance.

"Oh, then you're right to drink."

"Hey! What are you talking about, kid? If you really use me as a chess trap, you will only get worse when you play chess with me, right?"

"Tell me how you lost the game by playing spoon. Think of it as providing me with negative teaching materials."

Shi Yu sat next to him, chewing snacks from the cafeteria.

Teacher Bi was so choked that he lost his temper.

He had thought before that it would be lonely to send such a master disciple away.

Now that I think about it, I just hope that an expert will come and take him in as soon as possible. This kid is really good at choking. Whoever likes it will get this blessing.

After pondering, Teacher Bi said awkwardly: "I fell into his trap."

"Outside the game?"

"The situation at that time was that I was slightly better. If nothing else happened, I would have won this game, but at the critical moment he actually hummed a tune."

That's it. After saying this, Shi Yu understood.

In the past, the rules outside the chessboard were not perfect, which gave many people the means to take advantage of the loopholes and use off-board tricks.

Especially in Korean Go at that time, there were endless off-board tricks. Humming a tune was just a small scene. The real big scenes were all about taking off your socks and using biochemical means to interfere with your opponent.

For the simple Chinese Go game at that time, even humming a tune was enough to cause a storm. It was obviously the first time that Teacher Bi had seen this move and he was not prepared for it.

Even if there is no rule prohibiting it, this is still a despised trick.

"Under the intense pressure of counting seconds, I lost half of my output, and our life trajectories completely changed. He went to a big city, but I am still in my hometown." Teacher Bi sighed, "That was my first time I realized how cruel Go is."

"Life is long and there are many opportunities. If you lose, I can help you win back."

Shi Yu played with the plastic knife in his hand that was used to finish the cake, and his tone was calm for no reason.

"Are you really confident that you can beat Yao Yuhang? He can play chess with professional players first."

"Try it. There is a sentence in my favorite Go cartoon, which says that not considering the consequences of losing may help increase the chance of winning. It just fits the current situation."

Back in the room, Shi Yu lay on the bed.

The old rules, the unique skills, start!
  Starting the art now is not about working overtime and retraining.

Now there is only one night, no matter how hard you train, there will be no qualitative change.

He just came to shop.

After several consecutive face-to-face encounters today, his sentiment value soared by more than 100 points, crossing the 1000 mark.

You can upgrade your skills.

Spend 1000 points, Jueyi lv1 → lv2!

After reaching a new level, more redemption options appear, and the entire panel becomes dazzling.

At the same time, it also comes with a small gift.
