The Path Toward Heaven

Chapter 136: It's a good deal

Views:

This question is very difficult to answer.

Others can't even understand it.

Tong Yan knew, Jing Jiu must understand.

Knowing that Jing Jiu was going to challenge himself at the Meihui, he went to read the chess records of the Four Seas Banquet.

He would not give this kind of attention to other challengers, even those famous national players.

What he valued was that Jing Jiu was a disciple of the Qingshan Sect.

Qingshan disciples have never liked piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, which is quite different from Zhongzhou School, but occasionally those who dabble in this way will show amazing talents, such as the current master of Qingrong Peak, Nan Wang.

The more important reason is that Jing Jiu is the reincarnation of Master Jing Jing.

After reading the chess records at the Four Seas Banquet, Tong Yan didn't pay much attention to Jing Jiu, but instead felt a lot of displeasure.

Just like Xiang Wanshu's feeling back then.

They had never seen such an ugly chess player.

If there are schools of chess, then there have been two schools since ancient times.

Chess players like Jing Jiu are classified as bitter fighters, blindly calculating all kinds of gains and losses.

Tong Yan can't accept this kind of chess playing method that has no aesthetic feeling and wins by brute force.

Master Jingyang's reincarnation disciple, how could he do this

Tong Yan asked Jing Jiu if he could understand his own chess, just to tell him that chess is not played like this.

Can you count my every response? Can you figure out my next step every time

Jing Jiu didn't answer Tong Yan's question.

This seems to prove Tong Yan's idea.

"I just said that these people are not worthy of playing chess here, but you are the same too."

Tong Yan stood up, looked at him and said, "Because you are not playing chess, but planning."

When he was talking, he looked down at Jing Jiu from a height, his eyebrows became lighter, and the look of his eyes above the top was even more unbearable.

What's more, this sentence itself is extremely mean.

There was some commotion in the crowd.

Above the way of chess, Tong Yan is qualified to comment on anyone.

Just a moment ago, he easily defeated Guo Dashi, the number one national player in the dynasty.

But his evaluation of Jing Jiu was really too sharp, you must know that Jing Jiu is a disciple of Qingshan.

"A while ago you broke Nanshan's sword, you used calculations, just like your style of chess."

Tong Yan said: "I just want to tell you today, calculating, it will be difficult to succeed in the end."

Zhao Layue listened on the other side of the street, and finally realized why this person spoke so impolitely.

It turned out to be the same reason as Luo Huainan speaking in the plum garden.

Guo Nanshan has been traveling all year round, and he has made friends with many heroes. Even the geniuses from the Zhongzhou School want to defend him against injustices.

You must know that the relationship between the Zhongzhou School and the Qingshan School is not close.

This has nothing to do with his status as the head disciple of the Qingshan Sect, it is naturally because of his extraordinary bearing and behavior.

"Abacus is infinitely more complicated than playing chess."

Jing Jiu stood up, looked at Tong Yan and said, "I don't think there is any difference between playing chess and mahjong. They are both games, but they require some calculations."

There was an uproar, and many people were very angry when they heard it, thinking how can these two things be compared? Even those stall owners who were pushed far away were not convinced, thinking how they could be related to gambling games like mahjong. Although people like themselves also use the endgame to make money, they are doing elegant things. Can't even count!

Tong Yan sneered and said, "Can you exhaust all the changes with your own computing power? Don't you even understand the boundless Dao?"

Jing Jiu said: "The universe is infinite, so naturally it cannot be exhausted, but the chessboard has only 38 lines and 361 points, why can't it be exhausted?"

Tong Yan said: "You can't even figure out my next step, so you can talk about everything."

Jing Jiu said: "No one can count every move of the opponent, because the opponent may not know it himself."

Naturally, Tong Yan would not agree with this statement.

Just like this game of chess, no matter where Master Guo falls, he has already prepared several excellent countermeasures.

How could I not know how to make my next move

Jing Jiu tapped the chessboard with his fingertips, then picked up a sunspot and placed it somewhere on the board.

"You have your way, I have mine, each goes its own way. If you insist on proving me wrong, I'll talk about it after Mei wins the meeting."

After saying this, he put away the bamboo chair, turned around and walked across the street, and left with Zhao Layue.

Tong Yan withdrew her gaze and looked at the chessboard.

The eyes of many onlookers also fell at the same time.

Then there were discussions and light laughter in the venue.

Where the sunspot fell, it actually blocked a large area of his own chess.

"Isn't this nonsense?"

After all, he was number one in the Four Seas Banquet Chess Tournament, no one thought that Jing Jiu could not play chess.

Well, there are only two possible explanations for what Jing Jiu did.

He killed a lot of his own chess pieces, Tong Yan's response will naturally be different from what he thought in advance, which can prove what he said just now.

—No one can count the opponent's response, including himself.

But what's the point of such a proof

To admit defeat in this way and leave without losing face

People think this response is quite witty, so they send good-natured laughter.

Tong Yan didn't smile, and looked at the chessboard silently.

Master Guo didn't smile either, he looked at the chessboard thoughtfully.

He played the previous game of chess, so he naturally understood it very thoroughly.

What they looked at was not the black pawn, but another part of the chessboard.

Before Jing Jiu left, he tapped the chessboard with his fingers, and it was right here.

I don't know how long it has passed, but Grand Master Guo said with emotion, "Amazing."

Tong Yan said expressionlessly, "It's pretty good."

Zhao Layue doesn't know how to play chess, but she also knows that Jing Jiu's move was suicide.

It is a real suicide, not jumping off a cliff, there will be no miracles, it is impossible for the situation to change suddenly, because black chess has a new space, so it turns defeat into victory.

Most of that strange situation is recorded in the story, basically it will not happen in the real world, not to mention that his opponent is the strongest chess player in the world.

So what is the meaning behind Jing Jiu's actions

Jing Jiu said, "He definitely didn't expect me to go like this, so he certainly couldn't think of what he would do next."

Zhao Layue thought it was a child's anger, and sighed: "Is this interesting?"

Jing Jiu said: "I just want to tell him that only imagination and intuition can never fully judge the opponent's thoughts, after all, we still need to calculate all possibilities."

Zhao Layue thought about Tong Yan's previous words, and asked, "Can you really count all the changes on the chessboard?"

Jing Jiu said: "Not all calculations need to have results. Sometimes we just need some numbers to help choose the direction of the game, but it is of course the best thing if we can calculate everything clearly. The chess book you bought me Talking about power, beauty, shape, and emptiness, many people also believe in this, but it’s just because they can’t figure it out.”

Zhao Layue thought for a while and said, "Maybe it's true, but it sounds uncomfortable and cold."

Jing Jiu looked at the night sky and said, "Because we are human beings who are good at comforting ourselves with beautiful words and definitions, and the world is just like this."

(Those beautiful words and definitions will not be listed one by one.)
