After all of us are reborn, who plays Go?

Chapter 10. Young Genius
"There's a huge difference. In our small roadside chess halls, there are only a few people playing Go, and they are full of smoke. This place is so classy."

After two consecutive days of competition, Zhan Lang took a day off today. He originally just wanted to lie down in the guesthouse and sleep, but was dragged out by Wang Xiaoer.

I ate the Goubuli steamed buns from Tianjin.

I ate the ear-shaped fried cakes.

I ate the Eighteenth Street Mahua.

I ate the pancake.

I ate the sesame sauce pancake.

Eat the ripe pear cake.

So what you mean by going into the city for shopping is just eating?
Looking at Wang Xiaoer holding a bunch of things in his hands, Zhan Lang didn't know what to say.

But to be honest, I ate a lot...

Compared to accompanying girls to visit the same exact attractions, eating together with two boys might be better, after all, what everyone buys is real food.

This was still the end of the grain coupon era, and the county was still eating planned grain. If you wanted to buy something, you needed grain coupons in addition to money.

Poor family but rich road, it seems that Wang Xiaoer still has a lot of food coupons on him.

The two of them ate and walked around until Wang Xiaoer found a chess hall and dragged Zhan Lang in.

"It's probably some ancient building that was converted."

Zhan Lang also looked around and found that the building was indeed very stylish, but it felt like a lot of it was imitated.

When I have enough money, I will go to the capital and buy a complete courtyard house.

Hey, that's authentic!
However, these days, there are still some chess clubs with a more stylish style, but there are not many consumers.

"There are so many people gathered in front, go and take a look."

As soon as he came in, Wang Xiaoer found that there was a corner of the chess hall with a lot of people gathered. The common human nature of watching the fun made Wang Xiaoer shake off Zhan Lang and go in.

"what."

Relying on his height advantage, Wang Xiaoer quickly squeezed through the crowd to the first row.

But after squeezing in, Wang Xiaoer was a little disappointed. He had thought that some famous Go player would appear here, so people would come to watch.

After all, it is said that this youth competition has invited many veteran Go players to guide the players after the game, so it is normal for some Go players who have only been seen in newspapers and on TV to appear in this place.

It turns out that there was an unfamiliar ten-year-old child and an unfamiliar old man below, so why were so many people watching?
"Master, are these two famous Go masters?"

Zhan Lang couldn't squeeze into the crowd because of his height. Moreover, he had been mainly playing chess for the past three months and didn't know much about the chess players. He only knew the names of even the top masters. He could only ask the people next to him.

"No, this kid just came today. He has already defeated four people in the morning. After having a quick lunch at noon, he continued playing chess and won several games."

"Oh, is he some famous genius boy in the neighborhood?"

"I haven't seen him. He might be from the recent youth competition. The one playing now is our famous old chess champion. His grandson is a member of the provincial Go team.

He is the most powerful one among us. If he can't take it down, all of us will be wiped out."

Hearing this, Zhan Lang nodded. With his height advantage, Zhan Lang could still see the chess game from behind.

How to say it, an old man teasing a naughty boy.

It's just that the roles are a bit reversed.

This old chess king was suppressed.

The previous few steps were obviously a bit too strong, and the steps were too big, revealing a flaw. Now the young man has caught him by the third inch of his dragon.

Just like what my teacher said, older players are still more influenced by classical Go, and many of them focus on combat.

But if you don’t use your strength properly, you might end up hurting yourself. “I thought he was a national athlete, but I don’t even know him.”

Relying on his agility, Wang Xiaoer quickly got out of the crowd, and then patted Zhan Lang who was standing on the periphery.

"Brother Lang, let's go."

When Zhan Lang heard this, he said, "Don't worry, watch it for a while, it's quite interesting."

"What's the point?"

"This kid is quite capable, and his style is very orthodox, but he still likes fighting. It seems that he has received an orthodox education."

Zhan Lang couldn't help but touch his chin. According to his teacher, Chinese Go had already begun to learn all aspects of Japanese Go before, but because many veteran players were influenced by the seat-based Go and their styles were very open and aggressive, students were inevitably influenced by their teacher's style when learning.

The so-called seat system refers to the ancient Chinese Go game format. First, four seats are placed on the board, that is, two black and two white are placed at the diagonal positions, and then the two sides play against each other.

"Better than you?"

Wang Xiaoer asked after hearing this, since he couldn't defeat Zhan Lang now anyway.

Moreover, Zhan Lang won four games in the past two days, so there is a high possibility that he will enter the knockout stage later.

Wang Xiaoer has three wins and one loss, so there is hope, but it is not great.

Looking at the battle on the chessboard, Zhan Lang nodded: "From the perspective of level, he should be better than me."

"How tall is it?"

"It's hard to say, but he's pretty good, but definitely not as good as Yingzi."

"Is this kid only ten years old?"

Looking at the chubby little kid, Wang Xiaoer said in surprise, "A ten-year-old kid is so powerful?"
"Didn't he start learning when he was four, five or six? Isn't it normal that he is at this level now?"

Just by looking at Zhan Lang, we know that Lao Ke became a professional at the age of eleven, and Ding Zhu even became a professional at the age of nine. True geniuses basically become famous at a young age, and very few of them achieve success late in life.

Gu Dali won his first world championship at the age of 23 and was said to be a late bloomer, but in fact he had dominated the country for many years.

"..."

Hearing this, Wang Xiaoer didn't know what to say. It sounded like the person he was talking about didn't start learning it when he was five or six years old.

Why am I not at this level?
"I lost."

The entire dragon was already in the opponent's control. After dashing left and right, the opponent's grip on it became tighter and tighter, making it hard to breathe.

The old man had to admit that he was no longer able to do it.

"Little boy, who are you from? I'm afraid you are good enough to play for the provincial sports team."

After losing, the old man quickly began to praise the opponent.

The meaning is very simple. It’s not that I’m not good enough, it’s that others are too good.

But the little boy didn't care what the other person said. He just put away the chess piece and said something.

"Who's coming next?"

Hearing this, Zhan Lang suddenly felt a surge of evil energy coming towards him.

They are the same kind!
This is the telepathy between the pretentious people!
"I come!"

Zhan Lang immediately raised his hand and squeezed in, but Wang Xiaoer directly pulled Zhan Lang back: "Brother Lang, didn't you say that his level is higher than yours?"

He is better than you, but you still want to play with him? Isn't this asking for trouble?
After hearing this, Zhan Lang turned around and said in surprise: "What you said is true. Just because your level is higher than mine doesn't mean I can't win."

He is better than me, isn't it normal for me to beat him?
PS: Although everyone knows that Xiaopang was going to grind, but you just grind hard when I tell you to, and don’t even fight back, it makes me anxious just watching… A large documentary, The Seven Captures of Lao Ke, will be released tomorrow, so stay tuned
