Rebirth of the Great Power

The so-called blind chess means that the chessboard pieces are not used, and the two sides state the positions of the pieces by dictating coordinates.Go is different from other games in that because of its large board, there are no hard and fast rules for the direction and position of each piece, and the more pieces go to the back, the more complex the board becomes.This requires players who play blindfolded chess not only to have a very good chess skill, but also to have a super memory.

Playing blindfolded chess is different from replaying, but most people with a certain level of chess skills can replay, but it does not mean that they can play blindfolded chess well.

Ji San had never played blind chess before, but at this moment Mu Yuan's proposal aroused his great interest, his eyes flashed, and he said with a smile: "Okay, try."

Mu Yuan quickly said, "Brother Ji, please."

Ji San didn't delay either, the previous game of chess had already let him know clearly that Mu Yuan's chess strength was far above his, and he wouldn't feel embarrassed even if he was given the lead.

Ji San closed his eyes slightly, and a huge chessboard with a set seat appeared in his mind, and he quickly reported the first hand: "From west to west, to north, to three, to hang the corners."

Mu Yuan parted his lips, and called out: "East Nine North Three."

Ji San continued: "Seven to the east and three to the north."

"Three east and nine north." Mu Yuan continued to tear down the sides.

"Three east and six south." Ji San hung up again.

"West six, south three." Mu Yuan replied.

"East Nine South Three." White split the ball.

"Seven in the east and three in the south." One of the black chess pieces is in a low position.

"East three south nine." Bai made a move.

"West three, south nine." The black piece split the side again.

"West three, north nine." Ji San quickly announced that the white chess is handy.

"Three in the west and seven in the north." Between the black chess pieces.

"Three from west to seven from south." The white chess turned back.

"Three east and six north." Mu Yuantuo made up for himself first.

"West Nine South Three." Ji San glanced at Mu Yuan, smiled slightly, and replied.

If someone puts out the chess moves played by the two just now on the chessboard, they will find that the chessboard is laid out in a very beautiful shape, almost a complete circle.Except for the four seats occupying the star position, the dozen or so chess moves played by the two just now, regardless of the vertical and horizontal coordinates, all fell on the third road, so they have the current shape.

It is common for a few moves to land on the third road, but for fifteen moves in a row, both sides are on the third road, so it is a bit deliberate, and the two of them seem to have negotiated a tacit understanding.

Mu Yuan looked at Shang Ji San with a smile in his eyes, and there was some narrowness in his eyes, and finally he didn't continue to entangle Sanlu with his next move. As for whether it was because Sanlu had nothing to dispute at the moment, it was unknown.

Mu Yuan responded: "West six, south five."

"West five, south six." Bai Qi rushed forward.

"West six, south six." The black block.

"West six and south seven." White pulled the chess.

Local battles are imminent.

"West seven and south seven." Black also pulled a hand.

"West six, south eight." White chess leader.

"West seven south eight." Black chess followed.

Afterwards, the two sides exchanged a few moves of chess, but they should not be too tight, and the black chess always keeps the white chess low all the way.

In the previous one-hundred-hand chess, both sides played very freely, and the pace of chess was relatively fast.However, after one hundred moves, Ji San's speed slowed down significantly, and the time of thinking became longer and longer before each move.Mu Yuan knew that he was recalling the previous situation, so he didn't urge him, and just waited patiently.

Playing blindfold chess is not easy in the first place, and Ji San is trying it for the first time. To be honest, being able to play a hundred moves is quite impressive.

Mu Yuan naturally has no problem playing a complete game of blindfolded chess. He has this talent since he was a child. In his mind, the Go board is not just intersections, but a set of images. It is still partial, and he can clearly focus it at any time.

At this moment, Mu Yuan proposed to play blind chess, not because he wanted to show how talented he is in Go, nor because he wanted to compete for a victory or defeat, but just that the situation and the people in front of him made him want to Just playing chess.In this game of chess, from the very beginning, he played more casually and moved the chess at will, so there was a round shape deliberately at the beginning, and there were also several chess patterns that moved particularly beautifully afterwards.

Go is not just a sport, it can also be an art, or even just a kind of entertainment.

It's just that if you want to play good-looking chess, you don't have to be alone. After all, Go is played by two people, one with one hand.Therefore, it is so rare and interesting to have an opponent who has a perfect understanding and can understand each other's mind.

While waiting, Mu Yuan's thoughts gradually drifted away, and Ji San gave his next move: "West five south seven." Bai Qi took over.

"West one, north eight." Black chess set.

Mu Yuan announced his response almost as soon as Ji San finished speaking.

Ji San thought for a while, and replied: "West seven, north eight."

"West seven and north seven." Mu Yuan still maintained the original rhythm.

……

When black played the 170th move, Ji San thought about it for a long time, finally smiled and said, "I can't remember. But I should have lost."

Mu Yuan said indifferently: "Currently, there are 46 pieces for white pieces and 58 pieces for black pieces."

Ji San smiled and said, "Brother Mu is really amazing."

Mu Yuan smiled slightly, his slender fingers were stretched out in front of his eyes in the moonlight, he stared at it for a long time, the fog in his eyes was gradually replaced by a thin light, his expression was serious: "I am two years old, and I played Go early. Just like my life, it is inseparable. This hand, apart from playing chess, probably can't do anything else, how can I not go all out."

Ji San looked at Mu Yuan's firm eyes under the moonlight, and said with some emotion: "How many people in this world can do one thing well in their lifetime, and can do it to the extreme. Brother Mu, it is far beyond what anyone can do."

Mu Yuan smiled faintly, and turned his eyes: "Brother Ji has only played two games of chess with me, is it too early to say?"

Ji San shook his head slowly, and said slowly: "I think that people's eyes are pretty good."

Mu Yuan met his gaze, smiled slightly, and said no more.

Ji San said again: "It's quite interesting to play chess like this, let's have another game."

"Okay." Mu Yuan naturally wouldn't refuse.

"Let me go first." Ji San said.

"Okay." Mu Yuan responded.

"From East to Six to South to Three." Ji San quickly restarted the round.

In this game of chess, a total of more than 200 moves were played, but in the end, Ji San's memory became disordered and he failed.

At the end of the chess game, the sky was already twilight, and the morning star in the sky changed from bright to gradually dim, which was the only witness of their chess game.

The two of them played chess like this all night. They were physically exhausted, but mentally they were extremely excited.

When Mo Yan and Tian Yuan rubbed their eyes and got up, they saw the two masters standing neatly on the bow of the boat watching the sunrise.The rising sun reflected half of the lake red, a few fish jumped in the golden sunlight, the figures and scenes seemed to be shrouded in light, and the singing of the fisher girl could be heard in the distance.

Another vibrant morning.

Mo Yan and Tian Yuan hurried to the master's side, held back the yawn that was about to yawn, wiped their sore eyes, and said, "Master (young master), Master Mu (Master Ji), you wake up really early. "

Mu Yuan and Ji San turned to look at them, without explaining the fact that they hadn't slept all night, they just chuckled and said, "They're all up."

"Yeah." Mo Yan was a little embarrassed, actually got up later than the master, he was really too slack these days, so he quickly made up for it: "Master, I will help you to freshen up."

"No need." Ji San smiled: "Go and wash yourself, after breakfast later, we should leave for the journey."

Mu Yuan also rubbed Tian Yuan's head, letting him tidy up by himself.

After the two of them took care of it, the woman also cooked the meal and greeted everyone to eat.

Although it is porridge and side dishes, it is very satisfying.

After breakfast, the four of them bid farewell to the fisherman and his wife, and disembarked when the boat docked.When Fang got to the shore, he saw that the guard in dark clothes was already waiting beside the shore in a carriage.

After a sleepless night, the two of them were still in good spirits.With the car window opened on the way, Ji San pointed to the scenery outside and introduced it to Mu Yuan, told a few anecdotes, and talked about some local people.Mu Yuan listened with relish, and once again lamented Ji San's knowledge and knowledge.

The carriage drove steadily and fast, and arrived in Suzhou City that day.

Since ancient times, there has been a saying that "there is heaven above, and Suzhou and Hangzhou below". When you enter Suzhou City, you must naturally visit it.

Ji San's ancestor was originally from Wu County. Although his family has moved to the capital now, he will return to his hometown every three years for ancestor worship. He not only has a deep affection for the local area in the south of the Yangtze River, but also is very familiar with it because of his frequent contacts.

Under the leadership of Ji San, no matter it is touring Tiger Hill, crossing Fengqiao, or going to Hanshan Temple, it is full of interest.Ji San is also very familiar with the allusions and legends in it, and he narrates it vividly.

During the tour, it is natural to play a few games of chess.Since Ji San played two games of blindfold chess overnight in Taihu Lake, he became interested in it.Climbing mountains and crossing rivers, resting in pavilions, whenever he has free time, he will pull Mu Yuan to play a few moves of chess, and Mu Yuan will accompany him naturally.Sometimes a game of chess is played several times in a row, where it was disconnected last time, it will be picked up from there next time, and the number of moves that Ji San can stick to is increasing.

The two played a lot of chess, and they played it carefully again. The two young servants followed by their side every day, and their chess strength also improved rapidly under the influence of their ears and eyes.Tian Yuan had inkstones to discuss with, but he made faster progress than when he was studying alone.

After staying in Suzhou City for three days, I just set off.

The subsequent itinerary also maintained this progress, stopping and going along the way, stopping to take a look at places with beautiful scenery worth visiting, and sometimes stopping on the side of the road to talk with each other when the interest came.

This kind of travel makes me feel very comfortable and not tired at all.

During this time, Mu Yuan and Ji San were almost inseparable, eating, sitting and walking, basically staying together.Occasionally, when the hotel is full and the rooms are not enough, it is not uncommon for us to share the same bed.

Only a few times, when the guard in deep clothes reported something to Ji San, Ji San would apologize to Mu Yuan and avoid him to deal with it.Mu Yuan knew his identity well and knew that he had business to do, so he naturally knew how to ignore him.Other than that, Ji San did nothing to avoid him.

This period of traveling together was one of Mu Yuan's best memories for a long time afterwards.The same is true for Yu Jisan.

All the way through Changzhou, Runzhou, until Yangzhou.The original trip of three to five days, they walked for more than half a month, and they arrived in Yangzhou just the day before the start of Lunping.
