Liu Ji has a very ordinary appearance and is not very tall, but his temperament is very elegant. It is very convincing to say that he is a master of Go.

Lin Zhibai thought so.

And Liu Ji was also observing Lin Zhibai.

This young man is the master who took away Jun Matsumoto 2-0. I wonder how high his level is?

You'll know once you hit it!

The first round officially begins.

Lin Zhibai got the upper hand.

After thinking for a while, he chose the most stable tip.

Black 1, 3, and 5 take the corner first, then Black 7 defends the corner, and Black 9 has the tip!

Liu Ji's heartbeat accelerated slightly. From this start, he knew that Lin Zhibai was definitely stronger than Li Bai, Xiao Lin Dazhu and others!

certainly.

Liu Ji's layout is not bad either, making every move, and White 10 takes a big diagonal!

Every chess player has his or her own style of play. Liu Ji's favorite is the big tilt, which earned Lin Zhibai enough respect.

"pretty!"

The host exclaimed: "Lin Zhibai's 1, 3, and 5 small tips are simply indestructible, but Liu Ji's big tilt is also unbreakable. The intensity of this start is obviously stronger than all previous games!"

Are these the top three in the world?

Lin Zhibai raised his eyebrows slightly. Liu Ji's level was indeed different from those he had abused before.

When he came out of Black 23, he was directly pressed by Liu Ji's White 24, 26, and then 28, 30. Lin Zhibai fell into a tough fight for the first time.

certainly.

This is in the host's opinion, as well as the audience's.

For Lin Zhibai, he has not really exerted his strength yet.

Probably Liu Ji's value is around 95, a legendary Go master.

Of course you can control this level by yourself, it just takes a little more effort.

White 90!

After a fierce battle between the two, Liu Ji finally broke into the solid position on the upper right side of Black.

The host opened his mouth and said: "This game has finally reached a bloody point. You can see that Teacher Liu Ji's move seems dangerous, but Lin Zhibai's black tricks are difficult to find a way to annihilate the opponent..."

Liu Ji has the upper hand!

People who know Go can see it themselves.

Those who didn't understand understood the meaning through explanation.

When White 118 works, White not only gets the five-eye field, but also destroys the treasure house on the upper right of Black's chess, giving him a big lead in the field!

This time the host was not so conservative. He said bluntly:

"Ginger is still old and hot. Teacher Liu Ji has now completely gained the upper hand. However, although Black is at a disadvantage, he is still trying his best to maintain the strength of the overall situation."

Finished.

The host sighed with emotion: "Actually, I never thought at the beginning that Lin Zhibai could fight Liu Ji to such an extent. Judging from the current situation of this battle, I think Lin Zhibai's level is at least The level of the top eight in the world..."

If there is spinach or something.

Lin Zhibai's odds must be very high at this moment!

After all, Lin Zhibai just performed very well today!

And Liu Ji is already a well-known figure in the world of Go!

Yes.

Although the host believes that Lin Zhibai is at a disadvantage at the moment and Liu Ji has the upper hand, his performance as a newcomer in the Go circle is enough to shock the audiences who love Go from all over the world!

"I didn't expect Lin Zhibai to be able to fight Liu Ji to this point!"

"The White Emperor is mighty! Unfortunately, in terms of performance, he is still a little weaker than Liu Ji."

"Chu Ci is going to lose this game, but Liu Ji won't win much. The outcome may be a narrow win."

"Is there no hope of a comeback?"

"There is no hope, the situation is now controlled by Liu Ji."

"The richest man really tried his best in this round. His start was better than any before. It was almost a perfect tip!"

"But Liu Ji has so much experience!"

"Haha, it has to be Teacher Liu Ji!"

"Let me tell you, Teacher Liu Ji can definitely cure him!"

…

Is the situation really unfavorable to Lin Zhibai?

Yes.

However, this situation is only temporary.

Lin Zhibai just wants Liu Ji to continue attacking!

Liu Ji did as Lin Zhibai thought, and the situation kept changing!

White 122 first lures Black 123 to eat, and after Black 125 makes up for it, he then pierces the elephant's eye with 126...

This not only eliminates Black's first attack at position A, but also allows the four Black men in the middle to be separated and then attack!

"It's so stressful that you can't breathe!"

Liu Ji's eyes were like lightning, and he was as powerful as a rainbow at this moment!

However, at this moment, Lin Zhibai made a black move of 127!

moment!

The host exclaimed!

"Oops! Liu Ji fell into the trap! No! It should be said that Lin Zhibai made a perfect move! This move can not only support the four sons in the middle, but also expand the black power above, and at the same time eliminate the taste of Bai Hou on the right..."

Want to turn over! ?

Liu Ji's ears instantly turned red, and he wanted to swallow the white piece that he just dropped. There was no time when he wanted to regret his move more than now!

However, there are no regrets!

In this round, Lin Zhibai made a complete comeback after losing 165 moves!

Liu Ji can continue to play, but his mentality has collapsed, or he can't win this game again.

Continuing to play chess is nothing more than losing ugly, and losing extremely ugly. These two differences are essentially the same.

After sighing.

Liu Ji abandoned his son and gave up.

However, in this round, Liu Ji believed that it was not Lin Zhibai who was better, but that he was careless!

"His strength is on par with mine!"

This was Liu Ji's judgment, "But I should be slightly better. He won the game just now because of the opportunity I gave him!"

It doesn't matter!

Next round!

I won’t give it another chance!

This is the mentality of top players. Even though Liu Ji is one game behind, he still thinks he can win.

Little did I know.

Lin Zhibai didn't have all the firepower in the first game!

In other words, Lin Zhibai's game was too smooth. If he wanted to play with his heartbeat, he would bet that Liu Ji would ignore the fatal comeback point during the attack!

It was said to be a bet, but Lin Zhibai was actually quite certain.

This is a kind of certainty of "I bet you don't have bullets in the gun"!

Because Go itself is a game of the mind, and this is what the so-called "attacking the mind first" means.

"Prediction successful."

The corner of his mouth curled up, and Lin Zhibai found that he quite liked the feeling of this "thousand-layer cake game", which was more interesting than simply torturing people.

And on every continent.

The audience has been stunned!

The reversal came very quickly. Not long ago, Lin Zhibai was at a disadvantage, but he suddenly turned the tables and saved the world with just one move!

Many people didn't even react, and Liu Ji lost the first game!

…

Qinzhou.

"Damn it, Bai Di won!"

"Black 165 makes a successful comeback!"

"No, the black 127 hand has actually started to turn over!"

"Do you think this was Liu Ji's mistake, or was it planned by Lin Zhibai in advance?"

"I do not know!"

…

Qizhou.

"Who pinches me?"

"The richest man is leading 1-0?"

"Yes, you read that right, the richest man won the first round!"

"I was about to lose, but suddenly things changed!"

"So, we really have hope of winning the championship!?"

…

Chuzhou.

"Did Liu Ji make a mistake?"

"That can't be considered a mistake. Lin Zhibai's counterattack was too sudden and too beautiful!"

"I feel that Kuroko's skills are worthy of repeated study!"

"Wait a minute, are we seriously discussing the game? So Lin Zhibai and Liu Ji are chess players of the same level!?"

"Even if it's not the same level, the difference won't be too big!"

…

Zhaozhou.

"Who can tell me what's going on?"

"Am I so excited? I actually saw Lin Zhibai win a round against Liu Ji?"

"What level is Lin Zhibai at?"

"No! How could Liu Ji lose! This is impossible!"

"Why panic! This is only one game! Liu Ji may have underestimated his opponent! Just win two games in a row!"

…

Zhongzhou.

"Ah ah ah ah, Lin Zhibai wins!"

"I love him so much. Why is this man so charming?"

"Anyone who pays attention to Go knows what it means to win Liu Ji once in a formal game!"

"The second game shouldn't be that easy."

"Yeah, I saw in the first game, Lin Zhibai was forced into a corner at one point, all thanks to the most crucial move!"

…

Although Lin Zhibai won the first game, everyone was still more optimistic about Liu Ji.

Because everyone witnessed the first game, Lin Zhibai was forced to lose.

Even Liu Ji himself thinks:

Although Lin Zhibai lost the first game because of his amazing comeback, he was given a chance after all, and he was a little carried away at the time!

This is the disadvantage of fast chess.

There are always some places where I can't think things through.

In most professional Go games, one game can actually last for more than ten hours.

Qi Chuwendou was in a special situation.

But since you are participating, let’s follow these rules.

The second game is about to begin, and this time Liu Ji's expression is more serious than ever!

I remember the last time he was so serious was when Liu Ji was playing against the world's best Go player. He couldn't help but said to Lin Zhibai:

"I won't make the same mistake again."

"Mistake?"

Lin Zhibai smiled.

Inevitable mistakes are not called mistakes.

Liu Ji said: "If I had thought more about that step, you wouldn't have had a chance in that game just now."

Lin Zhibai raised his eyebrows. It seemed that the other party really felt that his victory in the first game was too lucky. In this case, let him recognize the reality in the second game!

"Please stop communicating."

The referee said: "Two guesses come first."

Lin Zhibai once again held black. With a flash of his eyes, he decided to play something interesting. He directly put the chess piece into a position that no one could have imagined or even understand!

"This is?"

Liu Ji was stunned on the spot!

Even the referee was stunned for a moment, thinking that Lin Zhibai put it in the wrong place because his hands were shaking.

But judging from Lin Zhibai's expression, there was no regret. This should be the first position he deliberately chose!

Studio.

Anyone who knows Go is stupid!

"What do you mean?"

"This is a competition, why is he messing around?"

"Is Lin Zhibai crazy?"

"The first move was made at the '51' position above the edge star?"

"Who started like this!"

"Is this different from the first step in backgammon, where you go to the far corner?"

"Don't question the understanding of the top experts. The richest man must have his reasons for doing this!"

"I don't see any reason!"

"But Liu Ji seems to have been frightened!"

Liu Ji was indeed frightened. He hesitated for a long time and didn't understand what Lin Zhibai was doing. He could only hit him in a conventional way.

However, this solution seems perfect to the host:

"I can't understand Lin Zhibai's first move, but Teacher Liu Ji's move remains unchanged in response to all changes, but the opponent has to guard against it, otherwise Heizi will soon fall behind in a large area..."

Have to guard against it?

As soon as these words were spoken, Lin Zhibai’s second son fell!

The host shut up instantly. Lin Zhibai slapped him in the face with his actions. Heizi turned out to be super smart!

"this……"

The host is a bit talkative.

However, no one laughed at the host, because the audience who loved Go were also confused!

"Check it out!"

"After Lin Zhibai won the first game, did he drink fake wine when celebrating?"

"Do you want it to be so abstract?"

"Are you trying to get Liu Ji to win a round?"

"And then postpone it to the third game to decide?"

"You have to complete bo3, right?"

"It's quite ceremonial."

Anyway, the audience who understands Go cannot understand Lin Zhibai's operations.

Some people think that Lin Zhibai is a master, and there must be a reason why he plays this way, so they want to know the opinions of other world-class masters.

As a result, a certain Go master smiled bitterly and said:

"Didn't you find that Liu Ji was a little dizzy? I don't know why Lin Zhibai played like this, but he might be trying some very special way to start. This unconventional way to start has succeeded in making profits. It will be very high, but if he messes up, he will be taught a lesson by Liu Ji in this round."

Weird!

In the Go world, Lin Zhibai's start was quite explosive.

It was a very strange kind of explosion, like dancing on the tip of a knife.

Liu Ji still responded to all changes by remaining unchanged, and his chess piece landed in a very beautiful position!

"Done."

"Lin Zhibai is gone."

"What on earth was he thinking!"

On Qizhou's side, several Go masters who had been eliminated were anxious.

But when Lin Zhibai reached the third step, Li Bai suddenly said: "Look, is President Lin going to be a three-star star?"

The person next to him said: "Are you kidding? This is not a three-star. The position is really wrong. Unless you push it up two steps... Oh my god! If you push it up, it is a three-star!" It’s about running the business up there!”

"So what did you call it in front of you?"

Li Bai smiled and said, "President Lin doesn't know more about Go than you do?"

Several people laughed awkwardly, and Liu Ji, who was playing chess with Lin Zhibai, finally realized Lin Zhibai's purpose!

"Three consecutive stars!"

Liu Ji's face darkened and he quickly made amends!

However, it was too late, Lin Zhibai took the initiative once Black 4 fell!

"What a show!"

Go fans feel their scalp is numb!

For those who don’t understand Go, it feels like Lin Zhibai made an incredible start!

Liu Ji began to destroy Lin Zhibai's game.

However, Lin Zhibai just landed Black 7 and forced Liu Ji to have difficulty breathing!

certainly.

Liu Ji was having difficulty breathing, but the host felt that his internal organs were burning!

"Oh my God! If White 4 flies and Black 5 occupies the upper right super high turret to form a play style, White 6 will fly and directly separate the black chess! Lin Zhibai keenly sensed the opponent's intention and turned to occupy the lower left super high turret. , he wanted to reconstruct the three consecutive stars, so after White 6 came out, Black 7 did not occupy the 9 positions on the side first. Now Liu Ji faces a huge problem - he can use the inefficient method of occupying the side, to Breaking Lin Zhibai's game, but it is destined to involve too much energy and is not cost-effective. Lin Zhibai can continue to occupy the upper right corner and pocket the three corners! But if Liu Ji is not willing to enter this If you don't do it, then Lin Zhibai can slowly let the situation unfold!"

Excited!

The host was extremely excited!

Liu Ji was in a dilemma just as the host said.

He suffered such a big loss after less than ten moves after the start, just because Lin Zhibai made a weird start, but he didn't see through it.

In fact, this opening is called "Apollo flow".

It is a well-known unconventional opening on Earth.

The Go masters from Blue Star and Earth may have similar levels, but there are differences in their styles.

In other words, the Earth may not have the routines that Blue Star has, but the Earth may not have the routines that Blue Star has.

In this wave, Lin Zhibai took a trick and used a tricky opening routine that Blue Star did not have but was very famous on the earth to fool Liu Ji.

But if it is only at this level, it can only be said that Liu Ji is inferior.

After all, it has just started, and Liu Ji has many ways to regain his position.

Including Liu Ji himself thought so.

But as it rained, Liu Ji felt that something was wrong.

Lin Zhibai seemed to be a completely different person, and he was clearly inextricably linked to him in the last game.

In this round, he was completely suppressed!

Liu Ji felt like he had strength, but no place to use it!

Everything is restricted by Lin Zhibai!

Until the black 98 move, Liu Ji felt that he had completely fallen into a swamp and was struggling!

He is about to collapse!

In the first game, Liu Ji at least knew where he lost!

But in the second game, Liu Ji didn't even know what was going on, he was about to lose!

Yes, losing.

Now Lin Zhibai's chess piece has been completely formed, but on the other hand, he is in pieces. After so many steps, it seems that he has been led by the opponent!

Abandon your son?

Looking at Lin Zhibai, Liu Ji suddenly had an extremely unreal feeling.

He never thought that he would lose in the Qi Chu Wen Dou Go event.

But...

When he met Lin Zhibai, his chess moves were unclear and he was heading for the end.

Sighed.

Liu Ji... give up and admit defeat!

Writing about Go is too painful. It’s just that I don’t know much about Go. Even after studying a lot of information, I only have some basic knowledge. There is really no other way. Fortunately, I have barely finished writing this project. Later projects should be easier to write.
