Who asked him to play Go!

Chapter 67 · "Stop!" This is not Go at all! 》

With a dark face, Li Xiantie turned off the TV and sat down on the sofa.

His teammates said nothing, and the whole room was silent.

Just now, the TV Go channel broadcast the precious footage that reporters accidentally took today for Chinese and Korean chess fans to enjoy.

The content is that at noon today, Li Xiantie was sitting opposite Shi Yu, reviewing the chess game, and even clearly taking pictures of the number of hands on the chess board.

Including Li Xiantie's 118 Ghost Hand, and Shi Yu's immediate 119 strongest countermeasure.

Before the official confrontation, the stars of the two countries had already gone through some tricks in the name of review. It was really exciting and the atmosphere was just right.

But the problem is that what Shi Yu said later was also translated:

"Are you full? If not, eat more at lunch."

Then, Li Xiantie turned off the TV, and the atmosphere in the room was unprecedentedly awkward.

I originally thought the other party was saying some cultural line, but it turned out to be a provocation!

Doesn’t this make his subsequent actions of adjusting his suit and walking away with his head held high very stupid?

Especially since chess fans from both countries now know about it.

I don’t know if Shi Yu will be criticized. Anyway, Li Xiantie’s current feelings are like those of an e-sports star who picked his nose during a game and was clearly photographed and spread all over the forum.

It’s almost becoming a joke!

"I'll go! In just a few minutes, you can capture everything?"

Jia Minjun feels that he is the biggest victim.

Originally, he thought that except Li Xiantie, no one would study the follow-up of his game.

In this way, no one will know that he won the game and admitted defeat.

But I didn't expect these reporters to be so ruthless and record the entire scene without anyone noticing.

Presumably, I am being subjected to a new round of repeated torture in domestic forums.

I’ve just become a joke, okay?

Cao Yanxun walked into the room and asked casually:

"You've had a round of face-to-face encounters with him, how do you feel?"

"It's hard to say, but I think he's not that simple?" Li Xiantie bit his thumb with a particularly troubled expression.

"Do you think he is stronger?"

"No! There is absolutely no such thing. The fact that I can figure out this step shows that my life and death skills are definitely better than his. No matter how perfect he is, he will not be stronger than me!"

Li Xiantie retorted confidently.

"You're right. Your move of 118 is much more difficult than his move of 119. Even if it only takes him a few seconds to execute the correct move, it's still no better."

Immediately, he paused slightly: "But, why do you think he can't count that hand of 118? If he holds white in that hand?"

These words awakened Li Xiantie.

The reason why he was able to quickly deduce the 118 move was because when watching the chess game through the live broadcast, he had always been in Jia Minjun's perspective, thinking about how to play the white chess piece every step of the way.

But if Shi Yu's position were changed and Shi Yu was left to deal with the same situation, would he also be able to see this "ghostly trick" in an instant?

Thinking of this, an unspeakable fear surged into my heart.

It's called the fear of being evenly matched.

"You're scared." Cao Yanxun closed his eyes and sighed.

"Afraid? No, I'm never afraid of any opponent. In that match with senior Jiang Changhao, I successfully defeated him, didn't I?"

This happened a few months ago, a game played by the current No. 1 player in South Korea and the No. 1 player in the world, Kang Chang-ho.

Even though he was given the upper hand, being able to defeat the opponent still shows his strength.

"Yes, you made a beautiful move that time, but it was just an ordinary game, and what you will participate in tomorrow is a final. In other words, after tomorrow, the biggest winner and the biggest loser will be born at the same time .”

"The biggest loser?"

"The runner-up is the biggest loser." Cao Yanxun spoke from behind.

This sentence made everyone present feel particularly heavy.

Only those who have embraced glory, experienced troughs, and witnessed time can tell it.

This is a piece of good advice!

"Teacher! I understand!" Jia Minjun took the lead in shouting, with tears in his eyes.

Cao Yanxun said calmly: "You don't need to realize it for the time being."

"Ah this." Jia Minjun retreated silently.

"Senior Jiang Changhao, have you ever been so scared?" Li Xiantie asked sincerely.

"Of course I have, including me." "Then what should I do?"

"I don't know, but everyone's answer to overcoming fear is different. If you cross it, you will be the winner!"

"Yes!" Li Xiantie suddenly felt hot blood.

"Okay, the press conference before the finals is about to begin, go quickly."

With this question in mind, all the Korean chess players in the room stepped into the elevator and came to the lecture hall.

Under various circumstances, the final to be held tomorrow afternoon has received unprecedented attention, no less than a real world series.

The two players are destined to become the focus of the news.

"Okay, let's do the interview today." The host held the microphone and walked onto the podium happily.

"First of all, Li Xiantie, let's not ask any nonsense about your thoughts. I believe you don't want to hear it. I just want to know one thing now, why are you late for almost every game."

Taking over the microphone, Li Xiantie answered calmly: "I know it will be hurtful to say this, but I still tell the truth. This is a test for myself. I deliberately punished myself by being late to make the game more challenging. "

As soon as these words came out, there was a gasp of air in the audience.

Isn't this crazy?

Is there such a thing as making it more difficult for yourself in official competitions?

"Don't panic! Shi Yu must be even crazier, believe him!"

Yu Ke waved his hand in the audience and told his fellow travelers to calm down.

"Haha, is this the pride of being the future No. 1 player in South Korea? But when you faced Jian Wusheng in today's game, you were not late. Do you respect his strength?"

"Yes, he is very good at chess and must give his best."

"What about your next opponent, Shi Yu? What do you want to say?"

As expected of the host, he had been making people angry in the past few days, and in the finals, he was naturally even more angry.

Li Xiantie hesitated for a while. He looked at the energetic expression of Shi Yu sitting next to him, and then at Teacher Cao in the audience.

Cao Yanxun nodded distantly.

Go ahead and get over the fear in your heart.

After receiving the affirmation, Li Xiantie plucked up the courage and said: "His layout is very thoughtful, but in terms of mid-game strength, he is the weakest among all six-win players!"

The moment he blurted out the words, Li Xiantie's heart became enlightened.

It felt like I was leaping over a bottomless canyon, with the whole world far behind me.

Fear, overcome!

At this moment, he felt that his strength had risen to another level.

"Wow, the reaction of the audience has said it all. What about you, classmate Shi Yu?"

The reporter cast a more expectant look.

"Honestly, I don't have the spirit of Brother Li, and I'm very ashamed of this. But fortunately, I'm not a competitive person. I admire the Japanese chess players more than the sharp Korean chess players. Personable, humble and gentle.

Among Japanese chess players, I especially admire three seniors, Koichi Komori, Masamichi Kato, and Hidetoshi Saito.

In this final, I plan to follow the example of my three predecessors and make a vow to shave my head and apologize if I fail to win.

For this reason, I hope that Lee Daoyou can also follow up and show the spirit of men in the Republic of Korea.

above. "

In stark contrast to Li Xiantie's speech.

After Shi Yu's speech ended, the audience was completely silent. It was as quiet as a library and almost like a morgue.

"What did you say? Shave your head?"

The host's smile gradually disappeared, his expression became frightened, and his hands began to tremble.

"That's right, follow the example of my respected Japanese seniors, risk your hair, and have a game. I believe that Fellow Daoist Li will definitely agree. Do you think so, Brother Li?"

Li Xiantie was dumbfounded.

Cao Yanxun was also stunned.

Everyone in the audience was confused.

There's something wrong with this guy!

There's something wrong with him!

Stop! This is not Go at all!

Only Nie Lan smiled slightly:

"It seems that my gift is prepared just right."

　Thanks to AkiyamaRitsu for the 500 tip! Compare your feelings!

　　I asked the editor and it seems that it will be put on the shelves next Wednesday. It seems that I have to finish writing the climax before putting it on the shelves.
