Please don't force me to be a god.

Zhang Tian nodded: "Well, the boy is teachable, as long as he understands."

There are also many chess fans in later generations who lose their appetite after playing chess.

Unfortunately, his talent is limited and he cannot enter the professional arena.

It's okay to have a moderate pastime, but if you blindly invest time and energy to learn chess, it will not be worth it.

Zhang Tian naturally doesn't want Xu Wen to fall into this dilemma because of his competitive spirit.

Right here.

The scholars watching suddenly made way for him.

A scholar called out, "It's Lord Yan, Lord Yan, and Lord Chu."

"It's going to be a good show. Lord Chu must have known that there was a chess master here, so he came down to fight."

"Lord Chu is worrying. I guess he can't play 28 games of blind chess, right?"

"That's not necessarily true. Blind chess requires memory. Just like a person who has a photographic memory, he may not necessarily become a great scholar."

"That's true. But even so, that brother was able to defeat us, and his chess skills have reached the realm of perfection."

"I'm afraid it will be a fierce battle."

Three middle-aged men, dressed in Confucian robes, came down from the seventh floor and walked straight towards Zhang Tian.

Apparently, someone had just gone upstairs with a sign to inform his elders.

Among the three people who came, Zhang Tian only recognized the painter Yan Zhuoshan.

The three bowed to Zhang Tianyi and said, "Hello, Mr. Zhang."

"Yes." Zhang Tian nodded in return, "You came quite early."

Yan Zhuoshan said, "Mr. Zhang, you don't know that in a few hours, the street outside will be difficult to pass."

"If we don't come to the seventh floor early to wait, I'm afraid we won't be able to squeeze in at night."

As he said, he pointed to the two people around him.

"This is Mr. Yan Weishu, a descendant of Yan Zhenqing of the Tang Dynasty; this is Mr. Chu Sizhuang, a national chess player."

"Yes, nice to meet you." Zhang Tian said.

It seems that it's not just Zhang Tian and others who are afraid of not being able to squeeze in. Everyone came early in tacit understanding.

No wonder so many scholars gathered on the Moon Viewing Tower so early.

Chu Sizhuang said, "Master Zhang, I just heard that my disciple challenged Master Zhang. If I offended you, please forgive me."

"No problem."

Chu Sizhuang glanced at the chessboards and said with emotion, "A blind chess game of 28 rounds has never happened before. Master Zhang is really a god."

"I wonder if Master Zhang can teach me a game?"

The surrounding scholars immediately buzzed and whispered to each other.

"The show is coming. Master Chu is really going to fight him."

"Just now I saw the three adults saluting him. Do you know who this person is?"

"He is so young, he doesn't look like an official. Could he be the descendant of a noble?"

Some people who knew smiled but said nothing.

They saw Fu Jinyu take the initiative to help Zhang Tian "get out of trouble" and now he is mixed with Xu Wen, and they are a little envious.

Fu Jinyu didn't say it, and the three adults didn't say it. They were not so stupid that they had to reveal Zhang Tian's identity.

Zhang Tian said, "I can play a game with you. But, to avoid trouble, who else wants to join the battle? Count them all in."

People around looked at each other, and there were many people who wanted to play chess.

However, everyone knew their own limitations, and the national player was in front of them.

Unless the level and qualifications were similar, who would dare to show up and compete with the national player?

Seeing that no one spoke, Chu Sizhuang stretched out his hand and said, "Mr. Zhang, please."

This time it was not a blind game. The two sat at the chess table and each placed two pieces.

Chu Sizhuang asked, "Mr. Zhang, how many pieces should I place?"

"Hiss..., what does Chu National Player mean?"

"The national player actually needs to play at a lower level in front of this brother?"

Generally speaking, playing at a lower level is not only about the difference in chess skills, but also about status.

National players like Chu Sizhuang, even if they are defeated, generally will not accept playing at a lower level.

Only when one's chess skills and status are far inferior would one be so conscious and take the initiative to downgrade the game.

Zhang Tian looked at the rating of the Go AI, which has now reached more than 5,500 points.

Zhang Tian made a brief assessment and said, "Just put 5 pieces."

If Chu Sizhuang can be on par with the first-class chess players of later generations, giving 5 pieces can already win or lose against the AI.

As soon as this was said, there was an uproar around.

"Giving 5 pieces to the national player, is this young man playing the chess of an immortal?"

Some people who knew Zhang Tian's status secretly said: Hey, you really guessed it right, it's the chess of an immortal.

Generally speaking, there are many levels of chess.

Giving the first move is one square, giving one piece is another square, giving two pieces is another square... and so on.

Like Zhang Tian, ​​directly giving 5 pieces is equivalent to downgrading Chu Sizhuang's chess level by five or six levels.

If facing other people, Chu Sizhuang would never accept such a chess position.

Regardless of whether he loses or losesWinning is not worthy of this man!

But now, his face is solemn, he grabbed a handful of chess pieces, looked at the chessboard, and did not move for a long time.

After thinking for a long time, he scattered 5 chess pieces in a corner.

Once these 5 pieces were placed, nearly a quarter of the chessboard was occupied by him.

Directly leading by dozens of points, nearly a hundred points.

The people present could no longer imagine how to play in order to turn the situation around - and they were facing a national player.

"Snap!"

Zhang Tian started to play slowly.

Soon, Zhang Tian regretted it a little.

It's not that he can't beat Chu Sizhuang, but... he can't outlast him.

No wonder everyone calls him a slow national player, he is really too slow. When it was dark, the crowd outside was surging, and he only played half of it.

Zhang Tian had no choice but to get up and stroll, looking down at the night view of Lin'an.

As time went on, the Go AI's rating had reached more than 6,000 points.

The situation, which was originally a draw, quickly tilted towards Zhang Tian.

When it was eight or nine o'clock in the evening, the AI ​​finally calculated a move that would determine the outcome.

Zhang Tian lightly tapped, and the retina showed "win".

So he said: "Master Chu, the victory has been decided, let's stop here today."

Now it was the turn of the onlookers.

"I think there are still many changes in the situation, how come the victory has been decided?"

"In the official game later, if Master Chu did not make a mistake, the victory or defeat might be just a matter of one move."

Chu Sizhuang pondered for a while, his face flushed, and finally sighed.

He stood up and said, "I calculated 39 variations, and each variation just lost 1 point. The other variations that have not been completed must be the same."

"Mr. Zhang is a good chess player. I admire him."

Zhang Tian smiled and said, "I didn't expect you to be slow at playing chess, but you are quite fast at calculating."

"Mr. Zhang, you are too kind."

Chu Sizhuang was not disappointed, but said, "Mr. Zhang said that it seems that the chess rules above are different from ours."

"What are the differences?"

Zhang Tian explained the differences between the rules of Go in later generations and ancient Go, mainly the "seat system", "returning chess pieces" and "adding points".

Some other details are not so important.

Chu Sizhuang thought carefully and said, "This set of chess rules is indeed more in line with the way of Go."

"Without the seat, the game will change endlessly at the beginning, which is in line with the way of yin and yang changes."

"I think it can be promoted and used."

Zhang Tian said, "That would be the best. However, it may be a bit slow to promote it in your personal name."

"I will tell the emperor later and ask him to issue an imperial decree to make this a regular rule, which will be convenient for promotion."

Chu Sizhuang bowed and said, "Excuse me, could you please ask Mr. Zhang to pass down a few chess records of the new chess rules so that people who learn chess all over the world can observe and learn."

Chu Sizhuang knew that this chess rule was new to them.

But for Zhang Tian, ​​he might not know how many years it had been used in "heaven".

Just passing down a few of them might be "immortal records", so he was naturally full of expectations.

Zhang Tian instinctively wanted to refuse.

I had read a sketching tutorial to Zhuo Ping before, and my left eye was blurry and my mouth was dry.

I don’t want to suffer again now.

However, after thinking about it, I said, “It’s not impossible.”

“But I have a task for your family. I hope you can pass it on.”

Chu Sizhuang said, “What is the task?”

Zhang Tian said, “The general trend of the world is that prosperity will decline after a long period of prosperity, and decline will prosper after a long period of decline.”

“China has gone through thousands of years, and it is impossible for it to be strong all the time.”

“Thousands of years later, if there are barbarians with the skills of Go, they want to sweep across the Central Plains and interrupt the spirit of the Chinese people.”

“You can use the skills in the Go manual to kill them.”

Zhang Tian was talking about the island country in the future.

Since the Qing Dynasty and the Republic of China, the island country has been suppressing the Chinese people in the way of Go.

It is obviously the skills of their ancestors, but they were swept away by the four-dan chess players of the island country, and even downgraded.

Although China has a chess master, Wu Qingyuan, it is a pity that he lives in an island country. Although he is a Chinese, he cannot win glory for his country.

Such humiliating history lasted for nearly a hundred years.

Until the 1980s.

In the China-Japan Challenge Tournament, another "chess master" Nie Xuanfeng emerged. He won 11 consecutive victories in the 1st to 4th China-Japan Go Challenge Tournament, and Chinese people stood up in the way of Go.

Since then, it has triggered a wave of learning chess among Chinese people, and masters have emerged.

The chess record that Zhang Tian is going to teach is called "100 AI chess records that humans can learn".

This book is a selection of AI chess records that humans can understand and learn, selected by top masters in later generations.

Each game is of a different type, covering most of the battle situations.If you can master it, you can definitely become the best chess player.

Unfortunately, this chess record is only at a relatively elementary level in front of AI.

Many AI chess records are not only completely incomprehensible, but even if you understand them, you can't master them.

They often calculate hundreds of steps away, involving thousands of changes.

In a blink of an eye, it's the chess pieces of the Hundred Eyes Dragon.

The human brain and heart can't bear such complex and huge chess calculations.

Just study this book "100 AI Chess Games that Humans Can Learn" carefully until the AI ​​era comes.

Basically, it can be said that with this book in hand, the world is mine!
