Chapter 127 Accumulation and Progress
Dajing City, Minglong Tianyuan.
The first game of this chess holy war is being held in the "Wanglong Pavilion".
On the surface, "Wanglong Pavilion" is quiet and solemn, and the entire scene seems to be frozen.
But if the joints are not clearly understood, the turbulent waves within will not be known to outsiders.
Lin Ruixin, the current holder of the title of "Chess Saint", couldn't help but squint his eyes when he saw his opponent making the 66th tip very calmly.
He naturally saw that Gang White's plan of 64 moves was not strong enough for him to block, so after thinking carefully, he chose 65 moves to fly, trying to exchange a move at the top, so that it would be much easier for him to block the block again with a small fly. .
But Lei Qi had no intention of following his lead. The tip of the 66th move was clearly about to be converted.
The chess game has been played to this point, and it is impossible to give up halfway. Next, Black's 67 and White's 70 moves are inevitable - Lei Qi even freed up his 68 moves to take advantage of the first move in the lower right corner.
In this round of transformation, it seems that both sides have made a big appearance on the top and right side, but because White has a very solid four-piece crutch in the middle, it is undoubtedly the more dominant side!
I asked him why he gave me the priority just now to calm me down...it turned out that he had the back-up plan here!
Lin Ruixin couldn't help but smacked her lips softly.
It has only been a year...
Has Xiaolei already reached this point?
When he entered the "Rookie King" competition at the beginning of last year, he was only a sixth-dan player!
As Lin Ruixin lamented, Lei Qi's sudden rise only happened in the past year.
Since April and May of last year, Lei Qi's performance has improved significantly. In the second half of the year, various achievements have improved by leaps and bounds. Successful results have been achieved repeatedly in the selection trials of various national and international competitions.
In September, he became a blockbuster and won the championship of the extremely long-standing "Pinghu Quick Chess Tournament" in one fell swoop.
In the announcement of grades and ranks at the beginning of the next month, Lei Qi was promoted to the seventh rank, which made many media in the circle lament that "the first wave of the new era has been captured."
However, these media are wrong.
Because what is photographed is not "a wave" at all, but waves that never stop.
In October, Lei Qi made another victory and won the championship of the "Changqi Cup", one of the most important Go open competitions in China.
Two consecutive domestic championships in two consecutive months. This shocked the domestic chess world.
While everyone was thinking about when Lei Qi would be promoted to the eighth dan, Lei Qi used his actual actions to tell everyone: there will no longer be the title "Lei Qi 8th dan" in this world.
In February 2023, Lei Qi went on an expedition to South Korea for the Sanshuang Cup after the Spring Festival holiday. During this period, he won six games in a row without losing a single game. He won his first world championship with an extremely proud record and was promoted to ninth dan!
After that, in March and April, he even shined in the most important title competition in China - the Chess Saint Competition. He passed all the way and finally stood as a challenger for the title of [Chess Saint]!
All this happened in just one year!
Lin Ruixin had heard before that although Lei Qi was extremely talented, Shang Chaotian still worked steadily when cultivating this good seedling, making sure that Lei Qi would not have obvious shortcomings that would be targeted. Even the final stage was deliberately delayed by two years!
The result is that although Lei Qi's achievements after entering Duan were not shocking, he was extremely steady step by step. Finally, at the age of seventeen, he accumulated a lot of experience and became a blockbuster!
Moreover, the underage child in front of me is even making progress!
Lin Ruixin thought that the previous game was already the best he had played in the past year, but not only had he not been able to widen the gap with his opponent, he was even slightly behind due to the exchange of moves just now!
Tsk!
The same goes for Old Man Shang. Even if he retreats, do you still want to leave me with such trouble...
Lin Ruixin glanced at his extremely young opponent. After thinking for a while, he A handstand appears from the lower right corner.
While this move itself is huge, it also has the faint flavor of matching the black chess piece in the white formation. It can be said to kill two birds with one stone.
After doing this, Lin Ruixin stood up casually, went to the snack table nearby to get an energy bar, ate it and returned to his seat.
Originally, in order to ensure the style of the game, players were generally allowed to drink water at most in Go games, and eating during the game was not allowed.
However, after the emergence of AI, the operation of closing the market at noon is too risky, and it is easy for those with ulterior motives to seize the opportunity to cheat. Therefore, most of today's important competitions have been changed to a mode where a game of chess must be played in one go, but various snacks provided by the organizer are allowed to be eaten midway. Now, Lin Ruixin couldn't say he was very hungry, but he wanted to see if he could disrupt his opponent's thinking.
For most chess players, they need to concentrate when thinking about chess. Once there is external interference, their efficiency will drop significantly.
So the sound of him chewing energy bars was quite loud, which was almost within the tolerance line of the staff.
But when he returned to his seat, he found that Lei Qi had already made his next move.
The white chess on the upper right has taken a step forward!
This kid...
I want to save my black man, but you just want to write an article about this abandoned white man!
Looking at Lei Qi's expression again, it was almost exactly the same as when he left, as if he had never noticed that he had left!
Lin Daqi Sheng’s eyebrows twisted slightly, a rare feeling that someone else had got him into a state of mind.
However, Lin Ruixin is a mid-level master after all. After noticing that his mentality was a bit ups and downs, he immediately stabilized his position and made the inevitable move to control it.
After the follow-up fight between White 74 Tiger and Black 75, White did not choose to open the robbery, but simply stuck it.
This chess piece... is actually sticky? !
Lin Ruixin suddenly had the urge to curse.
There is no doubt that the white chess sticks directly here, which is detrimental to the purpose, but Lei Qi actually sticks directly!
What does this mean?
This shows that Lei Qi thinks he is in an advantage now, and would rather suffer a small loss and try to simplify the situation!
Xiao Lei...where are you?
Do you dare to play chess like this?
Lin Ruixin lowered her face and fixed her breaking point.
Afterwards, White rushes with 78 and Black blocks with 79. White's 80 men are working on three and three, and at the same time they are waiting for an opportunity to move to Black's external breakpoint.
After thinking for a while, Lin Ruixin made a big fly to make up for the break, but then White followed up with a big fly with his 82nd move. While surrounding the air, he still aimed at the black breakpoint, which was extremely effective.
Lin Ruixin defended the breakpoint in one hand with 83 moves, and at the same time prepared for the subsequent breakthrough into the white space.
Unexpectedly, Lei Qi was even more elegant, taking another big leap, surrounding the air and aiming at destroying the black chess piece, completely ignoring the threat of the black chess piece breaking through the air.
Xiao Lei, you are trying your best!
Do you really think you have an advantage now? !
Lin Ruixin couldn't help but grit his teeth and immediately took tough measures:
Black move 85, small jump on the right!
On the right is a large white chess piece, and Lei Qi can't ignore it.
It is inevitable for White 86 to use a long move to prevent Black from making a move, and then Black will make a small jump, with a light pace.
Lei Qi also knew that after the black chess was set, he would take the lead. If the black chess was played again, it would be difficult for him to completely grasp the black chess. He immediately chose to fly to the outside and seal the black chess in order to achieve the goal. Guaranteed midriff look.
After seeing White's successful move, Lin Ruixin thought for a long time, and finally Xiaojian made a smooth move, ending the battle on the right.
This time he broke through the blanks and reversed the situation in one fell swoop, which was a huge gain.
After Lin Ruixin finished playing this move, he glanced at his opponent's expression.
However, Lei Qi's face was as sinking as water. He seemed to be isolated from the outside world, and there was still no emotion on his face.
