Go: Is the portable old man the nine-time champion?

Chapter 58 Food is the original sin
"Irrational moves, all unreasonable moves from the start!"

Wang Teng was completely baffled as he watched Yi Zheng's opening move. "Are you a serious chess player from a prestigious sect? How can you play chess like that?"
How come it seems that his style is even wilder than those amateur Go players who taught themselves how to play on the streets?

Theoretically speaking, any chess player with a certain level of skill would not make a bunch of unreasonable moves at the beginning of the game, unless he is playing handicap chess with someone who is much lower in level than him, and making up for the burden of the opening move by cheating.

But this is a difference in advantage! There is no big gap that needs to be filled by changing tactics.

What made Wang Teng feel strange was not only Yi Zheng's unreasonable move, but more importantly, Yi Zheng's unreasonable move at the beginning actually formed a huge formation with the people below.

"Cosmic flow?"

Looking at the rapidly expanding white chess pieces in the center, Wang Teng thought of a style of play that almost no one plays now.

It is a consensus among most Go players to attach importance to real territory. Although there are many uses for external forces, real territory as cash is preferred by more people.

Therefore, most people like to start the game on the third line and choose to hold their positions. There are even some who pay more attention to the field, which are called subway flow or even ditch flow!

However, some people do the opposite, attaching more importance to external forces than to actual benefits, and to the fourth line than to the third line. They advocate that chess pieces should develop towards the center rather than the edge, but rather fight in the entire central sky, so it is called the cosmic flow.

However, after the retirement of the previous classic representative, those who dared to make this move never had a good ending. Over time, similar moves have not been seen for a long time.

Even if there were times when he was forced to take external forces, instead of taking the initiative like Yi Zheng.

Yi Zheng is playing this kind of thing in front of him?

Seeing this, Wang Teng made a quick move, full of confidence and wanting to defeat the inflated Yi Zheng, ready to tell him why amateur chess players should not be insulted.

Half an hour later, Wang Teng was stunned looking at the chessboard. He didn't even pay attention to the chess clock timing out and rejected Yi Zheng's invitation to review the game.

Even when many people had finished their games, Wang Teng was still sitting alone in his seat.

Wang Teng: I don’t understand!
It’s not like Wang Teng has never lost before. It’s common for him to be eliminated in the first round of national competitions. He even lost to Yi Zheng a long time ago.

However, Wang Teng, who had lost to Yi Zheng and even became the background board of the classic life and death problem, just felt a little unlucky and felt that he had been hooked like a fish.

However, Wang Teng could still see clearly how he was hung up by reviewing the game.

But this time, Wang Teng felt as if he was being praised to the sky and couldn't get down. He felt dizzy and light-headed and just lost the whole game. The most important thing was that Wang Teng couldn't figure out why he lost.

Yi Zheng made a strange move, but he lost?
"Lao Wang, why are you still sitting there? Did you win or lose?"

Many other contestants also noticed that Yi Zheng, Wang Teng's opponent, was the first to leave the competition venue, but Wang Teng was still sitting in his seat foolishly and refused to leave. He even sat in his seat after the competitions of others were over.

So some amateur players who were on good terms with him couldn't help but come over and ask what was going on.

Why do you seem to be becoming depressed after losing a game?
Because the National Amateur Competition only draws once, and the competition progresses in a single-elimination manner, the results are posted directly next to it, and everyone can see tomorrow's opponents.

After learning that Wang Teng had lost, some friends consoled him, saying, "It's just a loss, so what? I saw the introduction at the opening ceremony last night saying that this guy had won all the qualifying exchange tournaments. He must be at a professional level."

Losing to him is normal. I was eliminated in the first round. Just treat it as a trip. Let's climb Mount Huangshan tomorrow." "Isn't it just that the opponent is at a disadvantage? You didn't lose 40 or 50 points to Tulong. Why do you look so distracted?"

Wang Teng didn't know what to say after hearing this: "I'd rather be the one to be slain by the dragon! At least I can die with a clear mind!"
Now I don't know how I lost. He could even slay the dragon but he didn't kill me. He simply gathered the pieces and forced me to walk, and as I walked, he won.

I even felt like he wasn't serious at all, like he just beat me while playing? Is the difference in skill that big?

After finishing this game, Wang Teng felt like he would die with regrets, not knowing how he had lost.

Even when facing those top players in the industry or even some professional level, Wang Teng had never had this feeling.

"It just so happens that you guys are all here, come and take a look.

What did he do at the start? Sharp Charge Wuyoujiao, Sharp Charge Xiaofei Shoujiao, these things are completely incomprehensible!
But after I responded correctly, he then used a 25-point attack to connect left and right. I couldn't see clearly, I couldn't see clearly at all!"

Wang Teng couldn't help but let out a painful wail. He had never played such a strange chess game before.

"Your level is too low."

Fang Zuzhe, an amateur chess player and one of Wang Teng's good friends, immediately began to criticize: "You people just like to make excuses. He made a good and unreasonable move at the beginning, but he was very strong in the middle game. You used his mistake to your advantage.

You need to rob but your own pieces are very thin; the big dragon needs a single official to escape; if you want to survive, you must waste a move to survive; to kill, you must hold back your energy to give the opponent an external force; you break into the shape, think for a long time to survive a piece, but the opponent has a bigger external force; the big dragon only has one eye when it fights to the death; it is pierced by the four corners; you know that the opponent is making an unreasonable move but you can't deal with it.

There are so many excuses, no matter how I play, there are always problems. In the end, there is only one sentence: if you are not good, practice more. If you can't afford it, don't play! "

Wang Teng's blood pressure shot up after hearing this: "Anyway, you'll know when you meet him!"

"Oh, don't worry. According to the schedule, his opponent tomorrow is me. If he uses the same method he used against you today to deal with me, he'll be dead! I'm not like you, who makes countless mistakes in the middle game.

There's something wrong with your charging at him, and you shouldn't have charged at all!"

Fang Zuzhe was very confident. In his opinion, Wang Teng said so many nonsense because he couldn't afford to lose and was bullied by the other party's unreasonable move at the beginning.

If it were me, this would never happen! You made an unreasonable move at the beginning and you still want to take advantage of me?

The next day, Fang Zuzhe looked at the situation on the chessboard and couldn't help but slap himself in the face.

It hurts so much, I'm not dreaming! No, am I in Wang Teng's dream, imagining that he was defeated by Yi Zheng in the same way?

Does it hurt if you slap yourself in someone else's dream?

Looking at Yi Zheng pointing fingers during the review, Fang Zuzhe felt confused.

There is only one thought in my mind.

How did I lose like this?
