Chapter 221
After sending off Grandpa Wugong, Kitahara Kento returned to the living room, bent over and sat on the sofa, feeling dreamy for a moment, which was seriously unexpected.

The fourth thing is that he almost became a celebrity. At the beginning, he always subconsciously believed that the so-called celebrity should refer to famous people in a broad sense. He didn't think about the celebrity title battle in Go at all.

It turned out that it was the celebrity title war Beiyuan Xianren turned his head and looked at Sister Qinyin in the kitchen, feeling quite speechless.

Sister Qinyin is also a storyteller. Celebrities are celebrities. They are celebrities in the Go title match. Can you explain it clearly to my daughter in the future?Why use such misleading grammar.
Moreover, the third matter has not been seen until now, why the fourth matter has already followed, and the Beiyuan sage sighed inwardly. The explanations for the latter three matters are becoming more and more vague.

what accidental injury hospitalized,
And what came close to being a celebrity,
The last thing was worse - the anniversary - and then there was no information at all.

At any rate, the third and fourth incidents revealed a little bit of information.

In the kitchen, Huajiang Qinyin washed the dishes and wiped her hands with a towel. She recalled what Grandpa Wugong said just now, and her mind slowly became active.

Celebrity title, she still has a better understanding of the history of Japanese Go.

In fact, as early as the Edo period, there was the title of celebrity in Go. At that time, the title of Go Master was not popular, only celebrities.

Only the world-recognized strongest chess player, the world-recognized No.1 chess player, is eligible to be crowned the title of celebrity.

Unlike the current era of Go, where there are a lot of nine-dan chess players, in that era, there can only be one and only one nine-dan chess player in the world, and that nine-dan chess player is the only celebrity.

Celebrities are the only nine dans. The ranking and promotion of all chess players in the world are all decided by celebrities alone. It can be said that celebrities are the emperors of the Go world.

Everyone wants to be the emperor, and everyone wants to be the "lord of the martial arts". In order to compete for the title of celebrity, the four big Go families intrigue, fight openly and secretly, and often fight on the chessboard. The story is as exciting as the martial arts novels from Hong Kong and Taiwan.

The 400-year history of Go in Japan has been repeated several times, and only ten celebrities have appeared.

Until the last century, the four major Go families that had been passed down for 400 years gradually declined. When the last celebrity was old, he looked around at the family members and found that no one could take on the important task, so he had no choice but to hand over the title of celebrity to From now on, Nihon Kiin will let tens of thousands of people compete for the title of celebrity.

The famous writer Kawabata Yasunari, as a spectator reporter at the time, was fortunate to watch the whole process of "Celebrity Retirement Chess". Later, he wrote the famous documentary novel "Celebrity" based on his own observation records.

Huajiang Qinyin gently put down the towel, and glanced at Xiaoxian on the sofa.

Although the current celebrity titles are not as terrifying as they were 400 years ago, the celebrity game is still one of the most important Go events in Japan, and its importance is no less than that of the holy war.

If Xiaoxian can win the title of celebrity, in the future, when he and Yazheng are reunited, the world will only praise them as a beautiful couple.

Xiao Xian can straighten his chest, openly hold Ya Hiiragi's hand, and walk on the street together.

Huajiang Qinyin turned her head and said, "Xiaoxian, anyway, you don't lack time, why don't you give it a try? What if you get the title of celebrity."

"What if?" Beiyuan Xianren turned his head and looked at Sister Qinyin with strange eyes, "Do you know how strong that celebrity is at present?"

"Fumihiro Iyama, ranked fourth in the world with the highest rating, the No.1 domestic score in the history of Japanese Go, Iyama Go Master is not only an honorary Go Master, he is also an honorary Honinbo, an honorary Tianyuan, and an honorary throne."

"And my best record in the past was only won by my father who had only won the title of Tianyuan once."

The sage of Beiyuan paused, sighed softly, and said, "Don't worry, I will participate in the celebrity battle."

The championship bonus of 300 million yen in the celebrity battle is very high, and if he saves money, it can even last him 30 years.

But the most fundamental reason why he wants to participate is not because of the prize money, and it is still the championship prize money, not money that can be obtained if he wants to.

Kitahara Kento took out his mobile phone from his pocket and searched for information online.

At present, in the seven major title battles of Japanese Go, the youngest champion record holder is Fumhiro Iyama, who won the celebrity title at the age of 20 years and 4 months.

The sage of Beiyuan gradually began to think about it.

One of the six super-class chess players, Sakata Einan, once said boldly, "How can there be a 20-year-old celebrity in the world!"

Later, Lin Haifeng, a disciple of Master Wu Qingyuan who was also one of the Six Super Go players in Japan, broke this record, and immediately became a sensation in Japan overnight.

Later, it was Fumhiro Iyama's turn to break this record. Now Fumhiro Iyama is No.1 in Japanese Go and the first National Honorary Award winner in Heisei.

They were all around the age of 20, breaking the record for the youngest champion of a title fight.

But now, the championship record under the age of 20 is still in a wasteland, which has not been cultivated by anyone.

Kitahara Kento kept his eyes on the phone screen.

There used to be an honorary chess master in Japan. He was fond of wine and gambling. Because of his gambling debts, he was living in poverty all his life. At the most exaggerated time, the huge prize money he won for six consecutive chess battles was not enough to cover a fraction of his debts. He didn't return home for the next three years, during which time he didn't have any letters. Suddenly, one day, he fled home with his illegitimate son in a state of distress.

Although the honorary chess master had a bad attitude towards the family's personal morality, the family still lived a very comfortable life and was admired by others.

Regardless of the quantity or quality of black history, Beiyuan sage thinks that he is far inferior to the honorary chess master,

If he can get the celebrity title, now, if he gets the celebrity title, he can break the championship record and become the first Japanese celebrity under the age of 20!

As an incidental point, the black history of my own years, compared with the dazzling achievements that caused a sensation in the whole country, is not worth mentioning.

The sage of Beiyuan slowly made up his mind, this is the key battle for him to completely wash away his stains!
The fourth thing, I almost became a celebrity. Almost. That is to say, in the first week, I finally walked in front of Jingshan Chess Master, but lost to him in Qibanqi.

Looking at Xiaoxian's expression, Huajiang Qinyin knew that Xiaoxian had firmly joined in, so she was slightly relieved.

There is one more thing, today Yazheng called her and said a lot of things in a roundabout way, wanting her to find out and ask Xiaoxian about the bet.

Huajiang Qinyin lazily raised her lotus root arm, and put it on Beiyuan Xianren's shoulder with ease, "By the way, Xiaoxian, you won the bet, have you considered it now, what are you going to ask of her?"

Kitahara sage glanced away, and moved his buttocks.

"Temporarily reserved, not currently planned to use."

He already understood that this unexpected bet was a wave that had never appeared in the ocean of history.

Perhaps every drop of water in the sea has its value and meaning as existence.

He didn't want to waste it lightly, and if he wanted to save those two requests for the most critical moment before using them, it might be more or less useful for him to sever contact with Amamiya Yahiraki in the future.

"Not going to use it now?" Huajiang Qinyin said with a rather surprised expression, "Hey, Xiaoxian, maybe. You strike while the iron is hot, even if you ask her some exaggerated demands tomorrow, she may agree to you .Are you sure you don't think about it anymore?"

Huajiang Qinyin paused, and said in a tentative tone: "For example. Would you like to be my girlfriend?"

The sage of Beiyuan said lightly: "I'm sorry, please allow me to make a decision. My gender does not meet your requirements."

"Stop talking nonsense, let me tell you something serious." Hua Jiangqinyin poked his ribs angrily.

Hua Gu was lying on the side of the sofa, holding her face in her hands, she said with a smile: "Xiaoxian can't say such cheeky things about his old lover."

Beiyuan Xianren glanced at his daughter with a slight warning in his eyes, he got up, and pushed Sister Qinyin upstairs unceremoniously.

"Aren't you going to leave tonight, hurry up and pack your things..."

After being pushed upstairs and driven out of the house, Hua Jiang Qinyin said with a helpless expression:
"What a ruthless man who started to mess up and gave up, did he just treat the woman who has lived with you day and night for three months so roughly? Please be gentle, okay, Xiaoxian, you seem to have touched my strap. How about it?"

The sage of Beiyuan had a dark face and didn't bother to talk to her. He quickly packed sister Qinyin's luggage, took her to the door of the house, and took her outside the courtyard.

The little naughty little face reluctantly spent more than ten minutes with Sister Qinyin before sending her to the car reluctantly.

The sage of Beiyuan watched the car drive away from the alley, and turned his head to look at it. The little naughty boy probably was afraid that he would settle the score immediately, so he had already greased the soles of his feet and slipped away early.

He looked up at the night sky, then turned and returned to the courtyard. On the way, he began to think.

The pre-selection for Group C of the Celebrity Tournament will not start until the summer vacation, and the competition will be completely over in autumn.

But there is a premise that you must be a professional chess player to be eligible and capable to sign up for the title match.

If he wants to participate in the C group preliminaries of the celebrity battle, he must first participate in the professional stage competition.

But the problem is that this year's summer professional stage competition, he has already missed the schedule, it has already ended, and if he wants to sign up, he has to wait until the autumn and winter stage competition, and by then, the celebrity competition will have ended a few months ago!
Fortunately, Grandpa Wu Gong showed him a way.

The National Go Tournament for High School Students, the champion of each event, as a reward, can play a game of guiding chess for free to high-ranking professional chess players.

As long as he can win the championship of one event, he will find a high-level professional chess player at that time, apply for a guide game with the rule of handicap, and win the battle, he will be able to obtain the professional chess player certification. In the next time, It just happened to be the C group qualifiers for the Celebrity Tournament.

Kitahara sage let out a long breath, and suddenly felt heavy psychological pressure.

Not only does he have to be ahead of the game, and in less than three months, he has to make up for his four-year vacancy, but he also has to surpass dozens of modern chess players who have completely experienced the AI ​​​​era, and in the end, the opponent he has to face , or that famous Jingshan Chess Master!

The sage of Beiyuan walked into the bedroom and closed the jacket door.

He sat down slowly, looked out the window for a while, and murmured in a low voice: "Almost becoming a celebrity. Almost. Are you sure it wasn't Sister Qinyin who told Huagu that she was almost a celebrity just to save me some face?"
