Rebirth of the Great Power

Mu Yuan looked at Zhan Hao's eyes full of fighting spirit again, smiled slightly, sat down again, and replied: "Okay."

The two set up a chess game again, this time it was Mu Yuan who took the white and went first.

Before the game started, Mu Yuan asked as usual: "Is it still Zicai?"

"No, pancai." Zhan Hao immediately answered.

"How much is a plate?"

"Thirty coins, no, twenty... just ten coins." Zhan Hao hesitated for a while, and took out ten coins.

"Okay." Mu Yuan responded lightly, picked up the chess piece and patted it down.

Start.

In fact, Caitou Zhan's heart is far from being as calm as it seems on the surface at this moment, and his heart is fluctuating violently.But he is very clear that if today ends here, it may be difficult for him to regain his confidence in playing chess.

In the previous game of chess, he underestimated the enemy at the beginning, then was too aggressive, and finally made such a stupid move, which is why he lost so badly.

Therefore, if there is another set, there may not be no chance.

With such thoughts in mind, Zhan Hao tried to comfort himself.

This time, he played cautiously, step by step, and thought twice before making a move.

However, all this failed to prevent him from going to the losing game, and he even made a shot before reaching the end.

Zhan, who started the game, walked extremely steadily, with both offense and defense, and played steadily.After entering the middle game, he did not rush to attack, but judged the situation and did what he could.Mu Yuan's response was not particularly outstanding, and the skillful hand like before did not appear again.However, that feeling of powerlessness lingered in his heart all the time. He felt that every move he made was within the opponent's expectation, and every response he made was unconsciously drawn, as if the opponent It's like guiding myself to play chess.

After the middle game, the situation between the two sides was not too different, but Zhan Hao knew that he had already lost.This time he didn't make any more excuses, he knew very well that he tried his best in this game of chess, and he could only say that it was because the opponent's chess strength was much higher than his.It's like a child who just learned to play chess. In front of a big master, all efforts are just efforts.

Zhan Hao didn't know what kind of reason could make a person improve his chess skills by leaps and bounds in less than two months, and he didn't have the heart to think about it at the moment.But if you lose, you lose. This time, his heart is much calmer.

After Zhan Hao admitted defeat, he didn't say anything more, but stood up, bowed deeply to Mu Yuan, left the ten coins on the table, and walked out step by step.

Zhan Hao left without looking back, leaving behind a group of watching chess players who were puzzled: This chess game has not yet been decided, why did Zhan admit defeat and leave?

Tian Yuan was the first to ask: "Young master, the game is not over yet, why did he admit defeat?"

When the first chess game came to an end, Tian Yuan had already returned, and the following chess games have been watching from the sidelines.

Mu Yuan didn't answer his question, but smiled slightly, stood up and said, "It's getting late, let's go back." He didn't collect the ten cents on the table either, and he had the right to pay the management fee to the chess club.

By the time the onlookers came back to their senses and wanted to find an answer, the two parties had already disappeared.

When he was about to enter Mu's residence, Tian Yuan was still struggling: "Master, why did that person admit defeat before you told me?"

Only then did Mu Yuan say: "Because he knew that he would not win if he kept going, so he surrendered."

Mu Yuan stopped, looked in the direction of the chess club, and smiled lightly: An amateur color chess player can have such strength. Go in this era is really exciting!

Back in the mansion, Mu Yuan asked, "Tian Yuan, have you ever played chess before?"

"Well, I played a game." Tian Yuan responded.

"What was the result?" Mu Yuan asked again.

"I lost." Tian Yuan slumped his shoulders and replied in a muffled voice.

Mu Yuan comforted: "You have not long learned chess, so it's normal to lose. Show me the chess game you played today."

"Ah, I, I don't remember very well." Tian Yuan murmured.

"It doesn't matter, you can put as many as you remember." Mu Yuan lifted his clothes, sat down, and motioned Tian Yuan to put on the chessboard.

Not everyone who knows how to play chess has the ability to review the game. It is not an easy task to memorize each move, but it is not too difficult after training, so playing Go can also exercise people's memory.When every child first learns chess, the teacher will say that they can improve by playing more.But if you don’t review the tape after you finish downloading, it’s like not reviewing after listening to a class, not grading papers after an exam, you don’t know where you are right and wrong, and it is very difficult to make progress.Reviewing the chess games played, especially important games, is a must-do homework for every professional chess player.

Tian Yuan soon began to play chess, the first few moves were very smooth, then slowed down, he always had to think a little before putting down the chess pieces, and when he played more than 50 moves, he gradually stopped.

Tian Yuan rubbed the back of his neck, and said with some embarrassment: "I can't remember the rest clearly."

Mu Yuan nodded: "That's enough. I will remember more and more in the future."

Just now when Tianyuan was playing chess, Mu Yuan had been carefully watching the order of each of his moves, and now he pointed to one of the chess pieces and said, "Here, and the next few moves, why are you in such a hurry to entangle him?"

Tian Yuan took it for granted: "This was originally my territory, people have bullied me to the top, can I not!"

Mu Yuan analyzed: "Actually, the opponent is not a good player. You already have two corner guards here, and they are already strong. His attack looks fierce, but he is actually weak. If you don't do it, he will either choose to survive or not. It’s a bit embarrassing to get ahead. You can wait for him to commit again before responding. But if you respond early, it’s yourself who loses the upper hand.”

Mu Yuan said while pointing to other places on the chessboard: "Look, this is just the beginning, and there are still so many big positions on the chessboard. If you play a corner or tear down an edge at will, the benefits you will get will be better than this move." big."

Tian Yuan listened carefully, and felt annoyed when he looked at the chessboard again: "Ah, yes, young master, I made a mistake."

Mu Yuan smiled faintly: "The most common mistake for beginners is that wherever the opponent's chess is played, his eyes will follow. It is almost an instinct to like fierce battles, and it cannot be overcome in a short time. You Just remember one sentence - 'It is better to lose the number of pieces than to lose the first', and you will be able to understand it slowly after playing a lot of chess."

"Well, I've made a note." Tian Yuan nodded vigorously.

"Just write it down. Let's go here first today, and we'll go play chess tomorrow." Mu Yuan said while packing up the chess pieces.

Tian Yuan put away the chess box, rolled his eyes, and said, "Master, can I ask you a question?"

"You said."

"Young master, are you really good at chess?" Tian Yuan asked straightforwardly.

Mu Yuan asked back, "What do you think?"

Tian Yuan immediately replied: "Tian Yuan thinks, the young master is very powerful. And the person you won today, I heard from others, is a master of lottery chess, he has a lot of moves in his hand, and no one in the chess club is his opponent You didn't see it, young master. After that person gave up, the eyes of others looking at you became straight."

Tian Yuan said it vividly, and Mu Yuan couldn't help laughing: "Then what questions do you have?"

Tian Yuan hesitated a bit: "But, but I heard, I heard that the young master used to play chess very well, but in fact, it was not very good... It was what Dalong said, not me, young master." Tian Yuan quickly explained One sentence.

Dalong was Mu Yuan's former servant, and Mu Yuan was seriously injured because of the unfavorable protection of the master, and was relegated to the handyman's room by Master Mu, so Tian Yuan was mentioned to replace him.

In order to avoid exposure, Mu Yuan once made up a paragraph to Tian Yuan, pretending that he had injured his head because of a fall, and could not remember the past, because he was afraid that his family members would not dare to speak out, and hoped that Tian Yuan could keep it secret and cover it for him.

The innocent and kind-hearted Tian Yuan did not doubt the authenticity of this passage at all, but was full of sympathy for the young master who was injured and lost his memory. He solemnly raised his fingers and swore that he would never tell this secret to anyone. At the same time, he patted his chest and promised responsibly: "Young master, don't worry, I will secretly ask Dalong about your past, and promise not to let him notice, and not let others see the flaw."

Thanks to Tian Yuan's hard work, he really helped a lot in some details.

Although he feels a little guilty about cheating Mu Yuan, a child who has unlimited trust in him, but the situation dictates that there is no other better way.The two masters and servants are more intimate because they have this "common secret".

Mu Yuan sighed silently in his heart, he had to make up another piece of nonsense.

Mu Yuan had already thought of a solution to this problem, and after deliberately pondering for a while, he dragged his voice and said slowly: "Tian Yuan, in fact, the young master still has a secret to tell you. During the three days when I was injured and unconscious, I did I had a dream. I dreamed that a green dragon hovered on the roof, and the dragon spit out nine chess scriptures. The reason why I didn’t wake up for three days was to write down the nine chess scriptures. Later, I heard my parents crying , I woke up, and the chess scriptures were gone. But I have memorized all the nine chess scriptures in my heart, and after learning these nine chess scriptures, I will naturally improve my chess skills."

After Mu Yuan finished speaking, he smiled.

This story is about Wang Jixin, a great player in the Tang Dynasty. It is said that Wang Jixin was not very good at chess at the beginning, but he loved Go very much. He thought about it day and night. A generation of national players.

Mu Yuan was not good at chess before, but now that he has changed his core, it is naturally different.However, if the chess strength suddenly advances by leaps and bounds, it will inevitably cause doubts.There are too many legends and anecdotes about Go in the past dynasties, and Mu Yuan picked up a little explanation that can be justified. As for whether others believe it or not, it is another matter.

Tian Yuan's eyes widened when he heard the words: "Isn't this what was said in those story books and the storytellers in the teahouse? With expert advice or martial arts secret books, his skill has greatly increased, and when he comes back, he will challenge those who have ridiculed and underestimated him, defeat all these masters, and finally become famous all over the world and marry a few peerless beauties."

After Tian Yuan finished speaking in one breath, he said excitedly and confidently: "Master, you will definitely become famous!"

Mu Yuan was stunned for a moment, he didn't expect Tian Yuan's acceptance rate to be so high, and he could make up such a long list. It seems that such stories are very popular no matter it is a thousand years ago or a thousand years later.
