Bird Soul: Unparalleled National Warriors at the Beginning

It was already the fourth day of special training at Nan Meng’s house.

Lu Senzhuo walked towards the agreed gathering place.

Recalling the results of the previous three days, Lu Senzhuo felt very anxious and painful.

Except for one game in which Gao Yawenai fired two super cannons in a row, causing Nan Mengyan to fall into third place, in the subsequent games, each team played with normal strength, but was suppressed miserably.

In so many games that followed, Nan Mengyan never fell from the number one throne.

There is a huge difference in personal strength, so much so that Lu Senzhuo has no real feeling when touching mahjong these days.

Lusen Zhuo really couldn't understand why there was such a big gap.

This is the strength of the top players in the country, which is not at the same level as them.

It's like a super heavyweight boxer beating a super lightweight boxer unilaterally, almost KOing his opponent with just one punch.

To be honest, Lu Senzhuo even felt that such a game was meaningless. It had no effect on self-improvement other than frustration, because the gap between the two sides was so big that it was difficult to make progress.

"Good morning."

Seeing the two girls waiting next to the station, Lu Senzhuo gently said hello.

"Good morning, Xiaozhuo." Matsumi Xuan nodded slightly and smiled back.

"It's so cold this morning!"

She had to get up early in the morning, but Song Shiyou's constitution couldn't bear it.

Although it is technically still summer, the temperature in the morning is no longer as warm as before. Song Shiyou put on a scarf early and wrapped herself tightly.

Seeing Song Shiyou who was so afraid of the cold, Lu Senzhuo couldn't help but sigh: "Sister You, you don't have to force yourself. Anyway, even if you go to Nan Meng's house, you will still get beaten."

"I think it's okay."

Hearing Lu Senzhuo sigh a little, Song Shiyou smiled lightly and said, "Actually, there is no need to be so pessimistic.

Although he has indeed been losing in the past few days, at least Xiaoxuan's defensive ability has improved, and the number of times he was hit yesterday was significantly reduced.

Moreover, Xiao Ke's house is quite warm, and Nan Yan will also prepare hot water and warm tea for us, so there is no need to worry about this for me. "

Lu Senzhuo wanted to say something more, but then he heard a loud female voice coming from the side.

"Oh, they're all here!"

Akato Harue came to the crowd at some point, clenched her fists and said, "Thank you for your hard work these days. I know that playing against Minahiko is a big challenge, but if you want to enter the national competition, you have to compete with Haramura." If we join forces, we will definitely face monsters of the same level in the future.

So we have to cheer up, today is also the last day! "

The county level competition will be in two days, and there is still one day left to prepare.

There are relatively few mahjong teams in Nara Prefecture, and the competition system is such that individual matches are placed before team matches. Since none of Achiga's members plan to participate in individual matches, they have a few more days to rest than other teams.

As for the prefectural competition in Nara, the results actually only need one day of play.

Moreover, it seems that Nanyan also has to attend his sister's Go camp, and he won't have time to train Achiga's girls afterwards.

Therefore, today is the last day of devil training.

"Are you planning to go too?"

Lusenzhuo didn't expect that Akatsuki would be there, so he asked a little strangely.

"Of course," Akatsuki raised the corner of his mouth slightly, "This is a rare opportunity. I will definitely take part in the opportunity to get up close and personal with the most powerful opponent in the future.

And I'm also more interested in Nan Mengyan's playing style.

As a somewhat extreme defensive player, I heard that he has beaten our girl away countless times in the past few days. I want to see how he chooses the opportunity to attack. "

"Um."

Lu Senzhuo's expression was a little dull.

After these days of fighting, she did understand one thing.

The Akatsuchi coach he admired was probably no match for Minami Yan.

He is too strong.

This made Lu Senzhuo feel very uncomfortable.

At this time, a warm big hand was gently placed on Lu Senzhuo's shoulder.

"Xiao Zhuo, I know what you are worried about."

Akatsuki Harue shook her head gently, "Actually, I also experienced the same confusion as you back then. On the road of mahjong, there were too many genius-like monsters. I lost to those people several times. , feeling a strong sense of powerlessness.

I always feel that no matter how hard I try, I can never surpass those geniuses.

At that time, I lost my direction and didn't know why I was playing mahjong. "

Hearing this, Lu Senzhuo still looked gloomy: "But coach, no matter how much you comfort us, those who can't win will still not be able to win, no matter what!"

She tried her best these days, but all she felt was the gap.

Now we are basically at the end of our rope and there is no hope of winning.

"Yes, some opponents are indeed unwinnable."

Akato Harue still smiled and said, "I have had this feeling before. At that time, I lost many games, and I felt that my belief in mahjong was shattered together, and I was confused all day long.

But if you think about it carefully, most people in this world have no direction in their lives, and very few of them really know what they are going to do. Until they are old, they don’t know what they are doing in this life.

So, if you feel confused, don’t look back and practice what you are chasing now, and let your future self think. "

"It always feels like you are giving us some chicken soup."

Lu Senzhuo curled his lips and refused to accept this trick.

"It's true that it's chicken soup," Akato Harue nodded, "but just like when I was confused, I saw a group of girls who were struggling for an almost impossible goal and trying to shine, and I had my own current situation. The goal you want to pursue, so you are no longer confused.

Compared with those who can see and cannot defeat, the confusion in one's own heart is more terrifying.

Is not it? "

Lu Senzhuo opened his eyes wide, and his pupils seemed to be frozen.

Compared with those who cannot be defeated, the confusion in one's own heart is the scariest thing!

Yes, she has been struggling with this matter for a while.

I feel that no matter how hard I play mahjong, I can't beat Nan Mengyan.

Therefore, training has become extremely negative during this period, and his state during the game with Nan Yan was not as good as at the beginning.

In fact, she didn't lose to Nan Yan at all, but to her confused and weak self!

She has been looking forward to Coach Akatsuki's return to the professional game, but Coach Akatsuki is now also looking forward to them going national.

In fact, they are saving each other!

Thinking of this, Lu Senzhuo suddenly felt how ridiculous his previous negativity and confusion was.

"I I know."

But Lu Senzhuo was not a pretentious person. He did not say any touching words. He just said calmly and expressionlessly, "Then I will try again today and defeat Nanyan head-on."

Seeing that the girl had regained her fighting spirit, Akatsuki Harue smiled slightly: "Not bad, this is the player trained by me, Akatsuki Harue!"

Nan Mengyan is indeed a big mountain in front of the girls, but as the saying goes, 'Don't stand on the mountain but on the wall', no one will be tripped by the mountain, and only confusion will kill a sparrow warrior.

A true sparrow warrior can never lose his own direction and judgment at any time!

.

Nanmengjia.

"Good morning! Even Akazuchi-sensei is here."

Nan Mengke opened the door and was a little surprised to see a familiar figure behind everyone.

"Yes, I came here this time to express my gratitude to your brother, and at the same time I also wanted to play two mahjong games with this famous person from Nagano Prefecture."

Akato Harue said.

"No, no, it's just a piece of cake. Besides, Nan Yan is quite bored at home. Maybe someone will play mahjong with him before he can be happy!"

Saying this, he invited everyone into the house.

Akato Harue took a look at the layout of the room and made some judgments in her mind. It seemed that Nanmeng's family was still a wealthy family.

No wonder both siblings are so versatile.

For convenience, the mahjong table was placed in the living room, and Xin Zixi and Gao Yawen were reviewing the game while waiting.

"Ah, you are finally here, and Coach Akatsuki is here too! We can't wait any longer, let's start today's training!"

Gao Yawenai said enthusiastically.

She got Xinzi up early in the morning to review the game, gained some insights, and thought about playing a four-player mahjong game with Brother Nan Yan and everyone else.

"That's because you can't wait any longer." Xinzi complained helplessly.

After everyone chatted for a while, they heard a door being pushed open.

Nan Yan was seen walking towards the bathroom with a towel hanging on his shoulders and his head lowered. He seemed to be thinking about something and didn't even notice them at first.

Last night, Nan Yan went to study the Go score recommended to him by Nan Mengke, and didn't go to bed until after two o'clock.

Although the Go celebrities in this world are very different from those in another world, the strange thing is that many of the famous names are almost the same.

There isn't much difference in terms of formulas.

It can only be said that it belongs to human wisdom after all, and the gap is not big.

In his previous life, Nan Yan had a basic knowledge of chess such as chess, go, shogi, etc., so it was not difficult to learn. However, in the past, he was just an amateur, playing casually, and just practicing life and death problems, which could only be regarded as a beginner at best.

So he had a lot to learn and remember.

The reason why he suddenly ran to play Go now is because Nan Yan now feels that his mahjong has reached a bottleneck period, and he can obviously feel that his progress is slowing down.

Wanting to step into a higher realm is not as easy as it used to be.

It was like there was an invisible barrier in front of him, preventing him from entering.

At this time, the best way is not to rely on hard training and work hard to solve it. This will only make you more confused as you practice. Hard training can only prove your hard work and cannot go further.

Just like the old man in some communities who has been playing the erhu all his life and even plays a few wrong tunes without knowing why, he naturally cannot become a true music master.

For example, most parents in the world have cooked meals for their children for a lifetime, but in fact, most people's craftsmanship can only be said to be unsatisfactory and cannot reach the level of famous teachers.

Even geniuses will encounter bottlenecks.

When you reach the bottleneck period, there is no longer much meaning in practicing hard.

The best way is to take some time to slow down and learn something else.

It is said that all things in the world arrive at the same destination through different paths.

This is a skill Nanyan mastered when he practiced table tennis before.

When he practiced to a certain extent and reached a certain bottleneck, he later learned badminton and tennis, and finally returned to table tennis with more insights.

After reading the chess records for a while, I also found someone online to practice against.

Nan Yan found that compared to Mahjong, Go not only requires higher calculation power, but also requires a good grasp of the overall situation.

Compared with Mahjong, you need to master the pros and cons of offense and defense.

The local fighting in Go requires very terrible computing power, and in the game, you need to make the best solution in a very short time. You don't expect which move is the best choice, at least to avoid losing money.

For Nan Yan, computing power is not his weakness. He can do well in local battles and can often kill the opponent's dragon, which is really satisfying.

I can feel that for someone with a strong calculation ability like him, even if he switches from mahjong to Go, he will still be much better than most riders at the beginning.

This is the inherent advantage brought by basic attributes.

But every time after killing the dragon indiscriminately in a local area and feeling satisfied after slaying the dragon, he ended up losing.

In the game of Go, killing pieces is often not the key. In many cases, local fighting will not be fought to the end, because even if you kill someone else's dragon, these pieces will not be removed, but will remain on the board. .

As long as a piece is still on the chessboard, it can exert unexpected effects!

Any discarded piece can be of infinite value in the hands of an excellent chess player.

At the same time, Go also pays attention to priorities, just like mahjong pays attention to the judgment of the pros and cons of offense and defense. Some parts of Go are indeed worth a lot of gold, but you must see the most important key points in the entire chess game in a very short time!

Sometimes the value of more than a dozen pieces is not as valuable as that one.

Therefore, killing pieces is not the key in Go. The key is how to occupy more territory.

This requires an overall view.

Looking back at Mahjong.

Nan Yan could feel that he had made many mistakes in previous games.

The most typical one is the match against Nekoha Lulu and Moriwaki Nuannuan in the exhibition match.

In a game where he kept attacking Moriwaki, he was finally attacked by Nekoha Lulu with a big one.

This is because they are too greedy for local victory and ignore other risks on the field. They do not have a corresponding overall concept, so mistakes like that occur.

After studying Go these days, Nan Yan felt that his original thick and solid bottleneck barrier seemed to have loosened a lot.

"Brother Nan Yan, we are ready~"

Seeing Nan Yan pass by with his head lowered, Xin Zixi quickly shouted.

Seeing that everyone here was ready, Nan Yan came back to his senses, smiled lightly and said, "Wait for me for a moment."

These girls are really positive, they have been so positive even after losing so many games in a row these days.

If it were Nan Yan himself who played mahjong with Akagi, Asada Tetsuya, Sakurai Shoichi and others, and lost so miserably and ugly, Nan Yan might have to give up mahjong for a few days.

I envy these girls for their good family atmosphere, family and friendship, and their ability to treat life and the things they like with a positive and good attitude.

For an old man like Nan Yan who has experienced severe beatings from society, it is difficult for him to maintain a healthy and optimistic attitude.

So he could only nip it in the bud.

If you can win the game, you will never lose and ruin your mood.

After washing up, Nan Yan sat on the mahjong table again.

"Namu, I am Achiga's coach, Akatsuki Harue. Nice to meet you." Akatsuki Harue introduced herself formally.

After all, she didn't know much about Nan Yan's temperament. Looking at the scenes in the game, this boy was a very indifferent boy, so indifferent that he seemed to only have mahjong in his eyes.

So I couldn't decide for a while.

"Just call me Nan Yan."

Nan Yan yawned lightly, and then he knew that this was not very polite, so he smiled apologetically and said: "Sorry, I read too late yesterday, so I'm a little sleepy, but don't worry, I will be very We will treat your matches with care and will not be perfunctory in any way.”

Hearing this, Akatsuki Harue couldn't help but smile.

It's a little different from what I originally guessed.

Before, she mistakenly thought that Nan Yan was the kind of genius who was difficult to get along with, but she felt that not only was he not as sharp and strong as a genius, but he would put himself in a very low profile, and he also looked a bit natural.

But his kind of stupidity is actually a bit special.

Some geniuses are not happy to deal with interpersonal relationships, so they get along with people in a very casual manner. They never care about other people's evaluations. After all, geniuses and ordinary people often have different focuses of attention.

What you care about and regard as life is often not worth mentioning in the eyes of genius.

Just like Akato Harue, as a mortal, regards etiquette and attitude in interpersonal communication as slightly more important, but for Nanyan, she may not pay much attention at all.

He just showed an ordinary side of himself, but mediocre people would interpret it too much.

Thinking of this, Akato Harue relaxed.

She knew that being too reserved was not a good thing.

For geniuses, getting them excited is the most important thing.

And the only way I can make Nan Mengyan excited is in this card game!

"Okay, let's get started."

Akatsuki Harue glanced at the girls, and then called them by name: "Xiao Zhuo and Xiao Xuan, you two will play the first half village."

"OK."

Then each family took their seats and turned over the wind cards.

Chitu also had his own ideas as to why he chose these two girls.

Sagaro Mori's style is biased towards her own, so if Nanyan suppresses Sagi Mori, there is a high probability that she herself will be suppressed, so we can see how Nanyan does it.

As for the reason for letting Xiao Xuan play, I'm afraid Nan Yan can guess it.

The reason is simple.

Their time was a time when old and new mahjong was changing. The rules of some mahjong games did not even include Riichi and various doras, which were worth a fortune.

Classical Mahjong and modern Mahjong gradually merge in the collision.

At that time, Akato Harue was a representative player who was good at classical mahjong.

Her style is quite retro.

Letting Xiao Xuan play is also to recreate the feeling of classical mahjong as much as possible.

After all, with Matsumi Gen present, she was the only one who could touch the treasure card.

What Akatsuchi wants is a game under the rules of the No Treasure Card!
