Go Legend

   Chapter 470 Brand New World

   When Li Xiangping moved out of the chessboard with great enthusiasm, ready to play a game with himself, Lao Shi suddenly said:

   "Hehe, little friend Xiangping, it's not impossible for you and me to play chess, but it's a bit too monotonous, right? For more fun, shall we add a bonus?"

Li Xiangping was stunned for a moment, then continued to laugh: "Haha good, you brother Ding'an, you deserve to be the great chess sage of the ancient chess, you guys are no-color chess, right? It depends on you, then you Let's talk about it for yourself, what is the best thing we can do today?"

"Hehe, little friend Xiangping, I think so, haven't we been discussing the "Ying's Cup" after 3 days, I don't think we need to worry about it anymore, this game shall prevail, if I win , then I will play in the opening game, if Xiaoyou Xiangping wins me, then you will play by yourself, what do you think?"

   "Haha, good, good, everything depends on you." Li Xiangping laughed and agreed;

   "By the way, Brother Ding'an, since you mentioned the Ying's Cup, let's adopt the Ying's rules in this game. Let's guess first."

   When talking about this, Li Xiangping really pretended to grab a lot of chess pieces and put them on the chessboard for Lao Shi to guess.

   "I guess double."

   Li Xiangping counted 18 pieces:

   "Haha, you guessed it right, then Ding'an brother, let's choose, you play black and white in this game?"

"Um?"

Li Xiangping smiled and said: "Brother Ding'an, don't forget, Ying's rule is based on guessing the right of choice, and the black side still has 8 points in the end, which is equivalent to 7 and a half of the Chinese rules, remember this, as for the more complicated We don't have this condition today, so this one can be waived."

   Lao Shi paused for a while: "Then I'll choose to play black in this game."

  Li Xiangping smiled and said; "Yo! Brother Ding'an has given up, so please give instructions."

It must be explained: Li Xiangping's words 'acceptance' at this time can't really be said to be a courtesy. After all, from the display of the winning rate of later Go AI, the rule of 7 and a half sticks is applied, and the first move of black is the first move. The win rate is basically only 40%.

   And not one dog is like this, almost all dogs are like this in all versions.

   Then it can be seen from this point that if black sticks 7 and a half eyes, the dog thinks that black is a little disadvantaged, thanks to the fact that different dogs judge differently.

   "Xiangping little friend invited me, I'm going somewhere, firsthand"

   When Lao Shi reported a coordinate, and when Li Xiangping followed his instructions to photograph a sunspot at that place, Li Xiangping immediately put away his previous hippie smile.

   He stared at that move for several minutes. During this period, he did not communicate with his plug-in again. Then he silently took out a white stone and photographed this white stone on the "star position" in the lower right corner of the chessboard.

  Because of Lao Shi's first move, he turned out to be in the "five, five" position in the lower left corner of the chessboard. ​​​

   This is something that Shi Daqi has never played before. Not only has he traveled back to modern times, but he has never played handicap even hundreds of years ago.

   Not only that, in all the openings of all dogs, he has never seen such a "interesting direction".

  So today, when he was preparing to play a game of chess with him for the first time, he actually played such an "interesting direction", what did he mean?

   Without waiting for Li Xiangping to think, Lao Shi's third move came soon. He even chose a "high eye" for this move, and it was also the "high eye" at the "diagonal star" position.

   Speaking from the bottom of his heart, Li Xiangping once again did not know how he felt when he personally played this chess move under the instructions of Lao Shi. ���

   "Gaomu" is also not found in medieval chess (even in the handicap of medieval chess, it is only seen that "outside the eyes" does not see the high eyes).

Not only does it not exist in medieval chess, but also in the chess records of later generations of dogs, it is also impossible to see this kind of play, but in the early years of Japanese Go, although "high eyes" can be regarded as a kind of "interesting direction", it is still A relatively common "interesting direction".

   "What the **** is this guy doing today, Lao Shi?"

   To tell the truth, if these two chess moves were not in the hands of Shi Daqi, then Li Xiangping might have been "blood up" long ago, and he would think that his opponent was teasing himself.

   But the two have been together for so many years, Li Xiangping still trusts Lao Shi's character, he believes that he will not do such boring things as a cheater, and just go to such a start just to tease himself.

  Then here comes the question: If you rule out teasing yourself, why did Lao Shi do this? What is his intention?

   You must know that this is a move that neither the ancient chess nor the Go AI would choose.

   To be honest, Li Xiangping couldn't figure it out for a while.

  Since he couldn't figure it out, Li Xiangping decided to stay the same for the time being, and wait a few more steps to see what Lao Shi's intention was.

   So Li Xiangping shot: "Star Position"! Facing Lao Shi's weird start, Li Xiangping chose the most ordinary and honest response.

The game between the two started from this opening. The two played each other. After half an hour, when there were more than 20 pieces on the chessboard, I don't know why. At this time, Li Xiangping was completely addicted to it. He even raises a wonderful and unique feeling”

   In fact, the "unique feeling" is not difficult to understand. After all, playing chess with your own plug-in is a relatively unique experience in itself, but what is more unique than this is:

  The two are really familiar with each other. As far as Li Xiangping is concerned, he thinks that his understanding of his own cheating is far better than that of big Li, Xiao Li, Gu Dali, Chang Hao and other outside chess players.

It is no exaggeration to say that whenever Lao Shi makes a next move, Li Xiangping will be able to read the idea of ​​this move very quickly, see through the intention of this move, and even most of the time, he has not waited for Lao Shi to make a move. Well, he could roughly guess that Lao Shi would probably end up here.

This will lead to a consequence. When Li Xiangping is playing chess with Lao Shi, he will not be obsessed with the final victory or defeat. He will not even think about whether the chess he played is in line with chess logic. Today's most thought is:

  How to seek innovation and change, and how to "do not take the usual path", so as to jump out of Lao Shi's calculations.

There is no doubt that this kind of thinking that is not obsessed with victory or defeat and only thinks about "doing not take the usual path" is of course a wonderful experience for Li Xiangping, because in the more than 3 years since his debut, he has never He never thought about it, and never did it. When he played in the past, he always put victory and defeat, and winning chess first.

   At this time, Li Xiangping also almost understood why Lao Shi made such a weird start today.

   "Hey Ding'an brother, I found that you are really cunning and cunning. You made two strange moves in a row at the beginning. You must have thought of this level long ago, right?"

"Hey, what's wrong with trying a game that neither of you are familiar with? I'm not telling you, little friend Xiangping, you are too honest in your chess game now, and your thinking is too constrained. With all due respect, if you can't break these Constrained, chess skills are difficult to go further."

   "I'm honest? You talk nonsense, you, I'm still honest when I play chess? You haven't seen the outside world say it"

Lao Shi rudely interrupted Li Xiangping and finished: "Hehe, little friend Xiangping, don't care what the outside world says, just ask yourself, the chess you are playing now, no, the chess we two are playing now, that escapes Go. Is it a framework set by AI?"

   Lao Shi's words directly told Li Xiangping to shut up.

   Indeed, don't look at the outside world, what kind of "novice and new type" he is constantly, and what "opens another window to the whole world chess world", but Li Xiangping certainly knows in his heart:

   The chess he is playing now is still within the framework limited by the dog, and he does not even dare to take a step beyond the thunderous pool.

   When Li Xiangping was in a daze, Lao Shi's voice thought again:

"Hey! I said, little friend Xiangping, why don't I know that our move today may not be in line with the logic of chess, and even if the machine sees it, they may even laugh, but we must try anyway. , because if we don't try, we have very little chance of beating the machine, and doing this kind of exploration."

   "If we do this kind of exploration," this time it was Li Xiangping who interrupted Lao Shi:

   "Maybe we can discover a whole new world, right? Okay, brother Ding'an, don't say more, now it's your turn, hurry up, hurry up"

There is no doubt that this kind of play to "explore the new world" is undoubtedly difficult. It is precisely because of the difficulty that the two of them play very slowly. The game of chess between the two actually fell from the night of the eighth day to the afternoon of the tenth day of the first day. It's not over yet.

   But by this time, the two could no longer continue. The next day was the "Ying's Cup" race, and Li Xiangping was going to draw lots now.

   This year's "Ying's Cup" opening ceremony was held at the Kunlun Hotel in Beijing. When Li Xiangping rushed over, everyone was startled by his pair of panda eyes. Dean Wang, the leader of the team, and others gathered around to ask for warmth:

   "Xiang Ping, are you all right?"

   What can he say when he is in a state of high excitement for several days? Of course, he could only pat his chest everywhere to make sure he was okay.

  The current "Ying's Cup" still retains the oldest competition system, that is to say, there are only 24 chess players. Among them, the top eight of the last tournament were seeded in the first round bye, and the other 16 players competed for the chance to enter the top 16.

   Well, this is nothing, for example, the current "Fujitsu Cup" and "Chunlan Cup" are also the same format. But who made the "Ying's Cup" a four-year term? Li Xiangping was not eligible to participate in the last "Ying's Cup", so this time, he must start from the first round.

   There is no doubt that among all the chess players, Li Xiangping is definitely the one who attracts the most attention. However, when the results of the first round of draws come out, the game that attracts the most attention is Kong Erjie VS Li Shishi. ���

   In the latest ranking just announced, Kong Erjie has rushed to the third place in the country, second only to Li Xiangping and Gu Dali, so his hedge with Xiao Li has attracted much attention.

   As for Li Xiangping, his opponent in this round is Yamashita Keigo. Since Li Xiangping has never lost to a Japanese player since his debut, everyone seems to be strong and weak.

  After drawing lots, go home.

   "Hehe, little friend Xiangping, shall we finish this game?"

   Li Xiangping sighed and replied, "Oh, Ding'an brother, don't need it anymore, it will eventually be the 9-point plate. You and I already knew the result, so you better keep your spirits up and prepare to fight tomorrow."
