Urban Youth Cultivating Immortals

Chapter 129 Bole
Thinking of going to Li Bufan's house to attend Li Bufan's party at night, Lin Lin felt that during this period of time, he could go to the library and look for books about Go. Maybe he could find some inspiration in the Go books , it is not necessarily possible to break the chess game left by Xiao Hei and the others.

Lin Lin took the soy milk and drank it, then put the buns into the sumeru ring.

Eight or nine o'clock in the morning is the rush hour for work.Along the way, pedestrians were in a hurry, and only retired old people would practice Tai Chi, dance, and do various morning exercises in the square under the shade of trees.

Lin Lin's home is not far from the Riverbank Park. When he went out, he happened to see two old people playing chess under the banyan tree in the park.

If it were someone else, it would be difficult to see what the two old men were playing from such a distance, but Lin Lin's eyes were not ordinary people's eyes.He saw clearly at once that what the two old men were playing was Go.

Thinking about it, it has been two or three years since I watched a human game live, and now I just go to watch it, and it may not be possible to get some inspiration from it.

In cities, it is rare to see anyone playing Go.Even chess is rarely played.

These two old people seemed to be nearly seventy years old, with pale temple hair, but they were in good spirits.

Lin Lin stood beside them and watched them play chess without making a sound.

These two old men are not ordinary novices, but old guys who have experienced many battles.Compared with the time when I learned Go with my grandfather and started playing Go with the old Taoist master, I am much better.

Even so, the chess game in front of me is a guiding chess game.A guiding chess game played by an old man against another old man.It seems that the old man in the gown of the Republic of China should be a master.

And although the old man in the grass-green Chinese tunic suit is good at chess, he is still no match for the old man in the long gown during the Republic of China period.

However, their level is not as good as their current self.

The concentration and seriousness they play chess is exactly the same as that of Xiao Hei and Xiao Bai when they play chess.

After every step and every chess piece falls, there will be their thinking.

This is a combination of tranquility and ease, and a collision of wisdom and persistence.

After the game of chess was over, the two old men looked up at Lin Lin.

"Hehe, Lao Zhao, look, let me tell you, there are still some young people who like to play Go." The old man in the long gown smiled and said to the old man in the Chinese tunic suit.

"He watched us play chess, it doesn't mean he can play chess, maybe he's just curious." Mr. Zhao said with a smile.

"Little brother, how are you? Are you interested in playing chess with one of us two old men?" the old man in long gown asked.

Mr. Zhao said with a smile: "Don't embarrass the young people."

"En." Lin Lin nodded and said, he looked at the old man in long gown and said, "Old man, can I play chess with you?"

"With me?" Hearing this, the old man in long gown was taken aback for a moment, and then said, "Okay, I wish I could! I haven't played chess with young people for a long time."

Old Zhao smiled and said to the old man in long gown: "Be merciful, don't let this young man lose too badly, and dampen his enthusiasm."

"No, old man, you don't need to be merciful to my subordinates. I won't lose either." Lin Lin shook his head quickly and said.

The old man in the long gown couldn't help laughing and said, "Haha, what a big tone, but I like it! Come on!"

Elder Zhao couldn't help but shook his head, thinking to himself, this young man is really arrogant, doesn't he know who the old man in long gown is?
That's a professional chess player, professional four-dan.Although he has already left the chess world and will not participate in the competition, but in the entire county, if he wants to find someone who can beat him, I am afraid that there is really no one.

But what happened next was what really stunned Mr. Zhao and the old man in the long gown.

Because the young man in front of him is not an ordinary young man, his chess performance is as good as those two old men.At first, the old man in long gown wanted to play chess with this young man as a guide, but after playing more than ten moves, he realized that the minions that this young man showed in front of him were definitely not those of ordinary young people.

He began to take this game of chess seriously.

More than ten hands passed.Beads of sweat began to appear on the forehead of the old man in the long gown.In this young man's chess game, he actually felt oppression, a very strong sense of oppression.He hadn't felt this oppressive feeling for many years.

When he was taking the chess player's professional examination back then, none of the opponents he faced had such oppression.

Only when participating in international competitions, when playing against those high-level opponents, can there be such oppression.This young man actually gave himself such a sense of oppression.

"It seems that what he said is right. He really doesn't need my mercy. Maybe he really won't lose." The old man in the long coat couldn't help but think.

More than 20 hands passed.

The opponent's chess moves are very clear, and the means of seizing the "ground" and "power" are very fierce and domineering, and he is suppressed tightly, without any room to breathe.

Seeing his domineering and fierce methods, the old man in the long robe couldn't help but think of himself when he was young.

The older a person is, the more conservative they play chess, and their thinking is fixed.Unlike young chess players, because they have little experience, because they are arrogant, because they refuse to admit defeat, because they are not afraid, they are not afraid, so they do not leave any room when they make a move, and even make all kinds of unprecedented strange moves, which makes people hard to guard against .

And the chess moves of this young man in front of him are very fierce and terrifying, with deep traps. He is one of the scariest chess players I have seen in the past few decades.

Halfway through the chess game, the old man in long gown felt that there was no need for him to continue with this young man.He simply surrendered.

It's not that he admits defeat easily, but that if he continues, he will lose too.Because the young man seized the initiative on the chessboard from the very beginning, and he followed behind him every time.

This chess game has progressed here, and the outcome is already known.

"I admit defeat." The old man in the long robe said.

Lin Lin was still not finished, when he heard the old man in the long gown concede defeat, he couldn't help being stunned for a moment, and then said: "Old man, the game is only halfway through!"

"Maybe, I'll make a mistake if I don't fix it later!" Lin Lin couldn't help but said, closing is not his strong point, and he will lose a lot every time he closes.

"Young man, what's your name?" the old man in long robe asked.

"Lin Lin." Lin Lin said.

The old man in the long robe asked with a smile: "Looking at your age, you should be a high school student!"

"Well, I just finished the college entrance examination yesterday." Lin Lin said without concealing it.

"Are you interested in learning Go and becoming a professional chess player?" The old man in long gown nodded in satisfaction and asked.

"Me?" Lin Lin said after thinking for a while, "What's the benefit of being a professional chess player? Do I still want to go to college?"

"Benefits?" The old man in long gown thought for a while, and then said, "You can play against stronger chess players. Do you want such benefits?"

At this time, Mr. Zhao next to him couldn't help but said, "Mr. Zhang, isn't he a little older?"

You must know that children who take the path of professional chess players are cultivated from an early age.The oldest one should not be more than ten years old.Although this young man is a high school student, he is at least seventeen or eighteen years old.

The old man in the long robe said to Mr. Zhao: "It's okay. With his current chess ability, he should be able to take the entrance exam directly. There is no need to enter the chess academy to study. Well, it just so happens that there will be an entrance exam in July."

"Lin Lin, if you are willing to take the entrance examination, I will help you. How is it?" the old man in the long robe looked at Lin Lin and asked.

Lin Lin hesitated for a moment, and then asked, "Will this affect my university entrance studies?"

"It will have some impact." The old man in the long gown said truthfully.

Lin Lin thought for a while and said, "If it doesn't affect much, I will consider it."

"Hey, you kid, do you know how many people asked Mr. Zhang for guidance, but Mr. Zhang refused. Now that Mr. Zhang offered to help you, you still..." Mr. Zhao looked at the young man helplessly .

"Well, since that's the case, you can find me at the place where I live starting this afternoon, and I will try my best to help you pass the entrance exam."

"Mr. Zhang, hasn't the registration for the entrance examination already started?" Mr. Zhao couldn't help but said, thinking to himself, is it too late to start the training now?
"Is it no longer possible to sign up?" Lin Lin asked.

"You can still sign up." The old man in the long gown said, "However, tomorrow is five o'clock in the afternoon and the final deadline for registration."

"Old man, can I think about it? You will all be playing chess here tomorrow morning, won't you? I'll give you an answer tomorrow morning, is that okay?" Lin Lin couldn't help but look at the old man when he heard that the registration deadline was one day away. asked.

The old man in the long robe nodded and said, "Well, I'll wait for you here tomorrow morning."

"Thank you, old man! I still have something to do, so I'm leaving first."

Watching Lin Lin leave, the old man in long gown said to himself: "I feel something new in this child's Go. I have a feeling that if this child appears in the world of Go, it will make Go The world brings about new great changes."

Mr. Zhao said: "Mr. Zhang, I think this kid has a good level, but he seems to have no intention of developing in Go."

Although playing Go depends on talent in many cases, but some people have unparalleled talent and sense of chess, but are not interested in Go.Mr. Zhao felt that this child named Lin Lin should be that kind of person.

The old man in the long gown stroked his beard and said: "It is precisely because of this that if he devotes himself to the world of Go, his progress will be even greater, and it will be more exciting."
