At 12:30 noon on January 20, Tengjiangge Xihuan Hotel, Hongcheng City, Pohu Province.
Du Weichen, the head coach and coach of the Pohu team, dressed in casual winter clothes, gave the final words to the team members who were about to go to the stadium:
"Ahem!
"Everyone ! It’s finally the last round of this year’s siege!
“This is the situation now...this is the situation.
"Our game score is 9 points and the game score is 14 points, ranking second from the bottom. We are 1 point behind the third-to-last Qiannan team in game points and 3 points in games.
"Today we will face It’s the second-ranked Qiantang team!
"Although objectively speaking, there is a big gap in strength between the two sides, we still have to..."
"...Eh? Qiantang team?"
No wait. After Elder Du finished speaking, Wei Zhenzhong, the young player in the team, couldn't help but raise a question:
"Are they still in second place? Didn't their ranking drop after Ni Jue's accident?"
Hearing this, Elder Du couldn't help but give the team member a blank look:
"No, Xiao Wei!
"Forget it that you haven't been very good in the last half of the season, why don't you pay much attention to the situation in the league!
“It’s true that my eldest nephew is still recovering from his illness, but the barking dog in the back seat that day was really fierce!
"Since he started to take Ni Jue's position in the tenth round, he has won four out of five rounds and lost one!
"In addition to losing to Xiao Ji, he has killed Geng Zhizhen, Ying Yalou, Teacher Yang, and even He Wei fell in love with him!
"I guess that's all it will take for my eldest nephew to fight in person! Where do you think the Qiantang team can fall in this ranking?"
"Ah——?"
Recently, Wei Zhenzhong, who has been thinking about going home for the New Year and not paying much attention to the results of other teams, could not help but exclaim:
"Isn't he originally the weakest seventh dan? This round, I also hoped that I could meet him this time and give it a try!"
"Ha! You are such an old man!
< br>"If I talk more with Xiaogu or my second niece, I won't have such an outrageous understanding!
“That’s right, Xiaogu, second niece!”
Seeing Elder Du cast his gaze at him, Gu Chuxiong smiled and nodded:
"Uh... Let me tell you something. In the past six months, I feel that Fatty Zeng has a lot of advantages and disadvantages.
"Originally, I often laughed at him for being the weakest among the senior dans in our class. , As a result, neither Lao Geng nor I are qualified to say this now. "
"...Eh? "
At this time, Rui Zhao on the side suddenly spoke after realizing it:
"Brother Zeng...has he become stronger? ”
"Huh? Don't you often spar with him? Don't you feel it?"
"Well... my training with Brother Zeng has been limited recently..."
Facing Gu Chuxiong Rui Zhao thought about the question for a while, shook his head and said:
"Judging from the content of chess, it seems to have improved a bit?
"But the winning rate is not very good..."
"Well, I think that might not be Fatty Zeng's problem...
"The problem is yourself! "
"In me...? "
"Yes! ”
Gu Chuxiong and Rui Zhao explained:
"Although you have been unlucky recently. You have encountered Guan Ye, Xiao Ji, Uncle Tuo, Lele and other first-line nine-dan players. Your record does not seem ideal, but judging from the content of the chess..."
“Okay, okay!
“I won’t talk about it for now! Let’s finish the game in front of us first! "
Seeing that the topic was going too far, Du Weichen quickly said:
"Continue what you just said! Although the opponents in this round are very strong, in the reverse bubble competition of the playoffs later this year, there is still a big difference between the 14th place and the 15th place!
"Please also work harder and try to knock down my hometown team! We will have many lives and multiple guarantees in the next year!"
"Okay!"×2
"Oh!"< br>
“Okay, everyone will make some final adjustments. We will go to the game room in fifteen minutes!”
After speaking, Elder Du clapped his hands, and the three team members dispersed to prepare for the final game. Adjust beforehand. Rui Zhao also planned to use this time to do life and death or tetsuji problems. But at this time, Elder Du seemed to have thought of something. After disbanding the team members, he quietly touched Rui Zhao and asked in a low voice:
"Uh, second niece, let me ask you something!
"Recently, do you have any new news about your eldest nephew? "
"...Huh? ”
Rui Zhao’s expression suddenly felt a little unnatural:
"Brother Du, Du, why are you suddenly asking this?"
"Ouch! How could I not ask! February 7th is the third stage of the Nongshim Cup!"
"Until now, the Chess Association and my eldest nephew have not revealed anything about his current physical condition. There are all sorts of random rumors among chess fans! I want to see if you, my eldest nephew's junior sister, have any exclusive news!
Du Weichen is right.
Since Ni Jue was recuperating due to illness, the Chess Association and himself have never made any other announcements except announcing their withdrawal from the LIG Cup preliminaries and the postponement of the third round of celebrity matches to the first half of next year. Message.
Originally, a player's poor health and need for self-cultivation are personal freedoms, and other people should not interfere too much. However, this time there has been no news about Ni Juena for two months, which still caused a commotion in the chess circle.
The reason is very simple - Tianyuan, a famous Chinese player, is the most critical player of the Chinese team in this Nongshim Cup, perhaps no one else. Therefore, his health has attracted the attention of many chess fans.
During this period, viewers kept leaving messages on the official account of the Chess Association asking about some situations. However, as to whether Ni Jue will be able to play at that time, the Chess Association still only replied that "it depends on the player's physical condition", including Du Weichen himself. The professional players in the inner circle asked Ni Jue, but he didn't read or reply at all, which made people feel a little bit murmuring.
As time went by, despite the public statements from the Chess Association and celebrity Tian Yuan himself, some "rumors" continued to appear in the market, saying that Ni Jue had actually undergone brain surgery in late November and needed to After a long period of training, it is basically impossible to go into battle, which makes the public opinion more fermented.
Under such circumstances, it is not surprising that Elder Du wants to know something from Rui Zhao.
Unfortunately, Elder Du did not get any information from his team members.
Rui Zhao blinked and showed an extremely pure expression:
"Well...I don't know what's going on with senior brother!
" When I went to the hospital to see him, he just said there was nothing wrong with him and sent me back
"But Senior Brother Ni only said he was fine and sent me back..."
"That's it..."
Seeing Rui Zhao's innocent and beautiful look, Du Weichen didn't doubt him at all, but said that Rui Zhao really didn't know anything.
I never expected that this innocent-looking girl in front of me would be the biggest reason why Ni Jue’s physical condition has been concealed so far...
…

< br>
At noon on the same day, 12:45.
In the final round of the Siege League, the Pohu team’s home game against the Qiantang team will be held soon.
For this round of competition, fans of Queen Zhao are naturally looking forward to it - even if Ni Jue is not there, there are already two figures on the opposite side who are quite familiar with Rui Zhao.
One is Xiong Siyi.
As one of the guests who appears from time to time in the [Go Xiao Zhao] live broadcast room, Sha Heitian, although his overall condition has been poor in the past year, he has a simple mind and has not shown too much frustration. He is still When it’s time to eat and drink, when it’s time to play chess and play chess, when it’s time to look for “Little Bear Two”, go find “Little Bear Two”.
She is very popular among Queen Zhao's fans because she often makes surprising and effective remarks.
The second is Zeng Xigou... This can be said to be an old acquaintance, so I won’t mention it much.
Therefore, all the "die queen fans" hope that these two will win these two lots, which is more interesting.
Otherwise, it would be good to draw another seven-dan chess player Yi Xiaogang.
This person is recognized as the weakest among the original four main players of the Qiantang team "Nine Nine Nine Seven", and he just happens to improve Rui Zhao's record, who has recently lost three out of four games.
It's a shame, though.
When the final result of the match came out, Rui Zhao's opponent was surprisingly not any of the above three people, and he even got the worst lottery...
In the last round of Siege A, Pohu team played against Qiantang team at home.
Rui Zhao, who is sitting at the fast chess table in Q7, will face the world's top two official players with the nickname "Guan Ye".
——The "No. 1 Official in the World" with one crown and two Asia Cups, Shangguan was promoted to ninth rank. (End of chapter)
