paddock

Yuan Ning frowned, feeling that "Lin Lin" wasn't just asking.Sure enough, after Lao Zhou replied embarrassingly, "Yes, we are playing chess", "Lin Lin" hung the umbrella by the door, put the cactus on the table carefully, walked up to Lao Zhou and said, "I can play chess." Is it?" He looked at the man, "With you?"

Old Zhou was stunned.Zhou Yulin is his only grandson. He has never been very interested in Go, and sometimes he doesn't respond to asking him to watch from the sidelines. He always seems to be immersed in his own world, indifferent to everything outside.The chess club has been noisy these past few days, Zhou Yulin probably felt annoyed, so he simply left early and returned late, and didn't come back until the game was over.

Did he hear wrong?His grandson actually said he wants to play chess, or should he play with his "Uncle Master"?

Zhou Yulin's eyes were dark, fixedly staring at the man opposite, waiting for the man to give him an answer.

The man stared at Zhou Yulin half-paid, smiled brightly, sat back again, and made a gesture of please.Zhou Yulin was not polite to him, and sat where Lao Zhou was sitting just now.Cameras and cameras were all aimed at Zhou Yulin and kept taking pictures.Zhou Yulin didn't seem to feel anything, turned the hourglass over and started a new round of the game.

Yuan Ning was inexplicably a little nervous.Can this "Lin Lin" win the man who smashed the field?Although it is a bit pitiful for the man to be driven away, it is a bit too much to come back and smash the field like this-Yuan Ning really hopes that Zhou Yulin can win.

The problem is that Zhou Yulin is so young, can his chess skills surpass the man who can challenge the whole chess club?Even his grandfather lost just now!

Yuan Ning watched the game on the chessboard anxiously and expectantly.After bringing the story, the difficult and difficult chess skills seem to become much more interesting.

The match begins!

Zhou Yulin holds the black stones, and the man holds the white stones.

It was a long game.The main reason is that the man descends more slowly.Zhou Yulin was different, every move he made was fast and accurate, as if he had thought about it countless times in his heart, as soon as the man put the chess piece down, he immediately made the next move.

Beads of sweat began to form on the man's forehead.At first it was just one or two, and then the bean-sized beads of sweat oozed out.The child in front of him is only 1.6 meters, less than 1.7 meters. He is obviously a student, a very small student, with a cold look on his face, not like looking at the chessboard, but more like letting go.Yuan Ning noticed that Zhou Yulin's eyes would occasionally fall on the cactus, as if he was thinking about when he could finish downloading and put the cactus away!

The more Yuan Ning watched it, the more wonderful it became. Even a person like him who knew little about Go could spot the signs of the man's defeat.Everyone else held their breath and looked at the ongoing chess game together.My God, the chessboard is almost full of sunspots!

At first, Yuan Ning only thought Zhou Yulin was very special. After watching this half game, Yuan Ning admired Zhou Yulin's chess skills completely.Yulin is only twelve or thirteen this week, right?He can play Go so well!

Yuan Ning also thought of the words that many people had warned him, there are people beyond others, and there is a sky beyond the sky!If he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, he might not have believed that such a genius existed in the world!

Soon, the chess club was alive again, and everyone's expression contained joy——

Won!

Even if the man hesitated for a long time, Bai Zi would never turn over!

Chess club members burst into cheers.

The smallest "member" of their chess club won!

Although I don't usually watch Zhou Yulin play Go very much, and I usually play with the cacti he planted, but why do I care so much at this time?It's good to win!Maybe it was the old man who gave Zhou Yulin a little trouble in private?

Lao Zhou also wondered, when did his grandson learn chess?He doesn't even know it himself!

Men may have been recovering for a long time.His eyes looking at Zhou Yulin were full of brilliance, as if there was light coming out of them.This made him feel like he was competing with Zhou Yulin's father back then!He was young at that time, and he was always unconvinced, thinking that Zhou Yulin's father just learned chess earlier than him, and there was nothing better than him at all.It's a pity that until Zhou Yulin's father died unexpectedly, he never beat Zhou Yulin's father half a time.Zhou Yulin is like his father!

The man didn't become angry from embarrassment, but laughed and said, "How many years have you been learning chess? You started learning chess from a young age like your father, right?"

Zhou Yulin paused when he heard the word "father".He has a vague impression of his parents, especially his father who is occasionally mentioned by everyone.He knows that his father is a Go genius, and many people have high hopes for him, hoping that he can also shine in the game of Go like his father.

But he has been lacking in interest.His grandfather has always loved him the most, so he didn't specifically let him learn it, but let him do what he likes.This man came over a few days ago, and the whole chess club felt like a big enemy. He faintly felt that something was wrong, so he went to the video store to rent some classic games, borrowed the machine of the video store to watch, and roughly figured out How to play chess.He has always been very good at calculating, he has gone through all the classic games, and simulated all the countermeasures of various chess moves in his heart-plus the basic knowledge he has learned in the chess club, he is basically a master. up.

Zhou Yulin silently thought about what he had done these days.He is not good at lying, so he answered honestly: "I used to listen to grandpa and them play occasionally." Zhou Yulin paused, "If I really started to learn, it was probably two days ago. I watched classic games in the video store and watched them two or three times. sky."

man:"……"

The man finally gritted his teeth: "Really? Then you are a genius!"

"It's not a genius," Zhou Yulin explained calmly, "It's just that Go seems to be relatively simple."

man:"………………"

The man stared at Zhou Yulin for a long time, pointed at him, his fingers were trembling, but he couldn't say a word.In the end, he put down his hands dejectedly, and said through gritted teeth: "Next summer, I will come again!"

Zhou Yulin frowned.

The man said: "What? Didn't you say Go is easy? Are you still afraid of me?"

Zhou Yulin said lightly: "...Troublesome."

The man was so angry that he slammed the door and left.

Lao Zhou was the first to come back to his senses.He knew Zhou Yulin was telling the truth, but that didn't stop him from being happy.Old Zhou stepped forward and gave Zhou Yulin a big hug: "Lin Lin, you really didn't steal anything before?"

"No." Zhou Yulin never lied.

Lao Zhou also knew Zhou Yulin's character, and felt a burst of emotion in his heart.It seems that it's not that his persistence is wrong, but that his talent is not enough, and his chess skills are not good enough.Lao Zhou said: "Then how did you play? Just by watching a few matches?"

Zhou Yulin said, "It's like a math problem."

Lao Zhou froze for a moment: "Huh?"

"Treat the chess game as a math problem," Zhou Yulin said a few more words, "Just deduce how to play it in your heart. The chessboard is just that big, there are not many changes, and it's not difficult."

"..."

Lao Zhou understood the feeling of the man slamming the door in anger just now.To be honest, his grandson really hurt people.There is an intersection of 360 on the board, not much change?Is it not difficult to deduce?It's that simple, Go will not become a niche activity!

Lao Zhou thought of another thing and asked, "Are you going to listen to your scores today? Do you know how many points you got in the test? Can you get into the High School Attached to Huada University?" After he asked, he said a lot, " It doesn't matter if you don't do well in the exam, it doesn't matter, it doesn't matter which school you go to."

Zhou Yulin said, "Three points have been deducted."

Lao Zhou was stunned.Is that what he meant?

Zhou Yulin reported the good news to old Zhou Bei in a flat tone: "The teacher said that three points were deducted for the composition, but everything else was correct. The total score of the three subjects was 297 points, and all the additional items were excellent." Difficult, it is easy to get a passing grade, but it is more difficult to get a high score.Telling this score will definitely scare a group of people!

Yuan Ning had been listening by the side, and couldn't help it after hearing the score, and exclaimed with a "wow".He looked at Zhou Yulin with eyes full of admiration: "You scored 297 points in the test! Only three points were deducted! Song Xingchen is one point less than you! Du Xiaojie is also two points less than you!"

Only then did Zhou Yulin notice a little Douding standing beside him.He turned his head to look, and met Yuan Ning's shining eyes, like black gemstones that would glow.Is this kid a student of the chess club?Zhou Yulin withdrew his gaze and looked at Lao Zhou suspiciously.

Old Zhou learned that Zhou Yulin had done so well in the exam, and he was beaten back by Zhou Yulin just now, so he was in a very good mood.He looked at Yuan Ning with a pleasing expression: "Boy, you look a little strange, aren't you from our side?"

"I found it from outside." Yuan Ning turned out the "Guanqi" magazine, opened one of the pages, and showed Lao Zhou the address on it.He said, "I want to learn chess, can I join the chess club?" Yuan Ning was a little embarrassed, "But I may not be able to come here every day."

"Of course!" Old Zhou agreed, "Our chess club has always been very free. Even if you don't join the chess club, you can come and play anytime. If you want to learn chess, there will definitely be someone to teach you."

"That's really great!" Yuan Ning said happily, "Thank you, Grandpa Zhou!"

At this time, Zhou Yulin had already walked back to the door, and picked up the cactus that had just been placed on the table.Yuan Ning saw that the root of the cactus was a bit rotten, looked listless, and couldn't help saying: "It seems to be sick!"

Zhou Yulin looked up at him.

Yuan Ning asked: "Is this raised by you?"

"Other people raised it," Zhou Yulin said. "It's about to die. I begged for it."

"It must have been watered too much!" Yuan Ning now understands this very well. "A cactus is not afraid of drought or waterlogging. If you water too much, its roots will rot. It's not serious yet, and it looks very energetic!"

Zhou Yulin nodded.He said: "You understand this? There seems to be something wrong with some cacti above me. Come to the balcony with me to have a look?"

Yuan Ning readily agreed.

Lao Zhou watched from the side with a smile.Rare!His grandson seems to like this little kid very much!Next, is it possible to let his grandson teach this little kid how to learn chess, and let his grandson also lay down the basics by the way?

Yuan Ning went to the place where Zhou Yulin raised the cactus for a while, and pointed out that Zhou Yulin should get rid of the insects.The two chatted for a long time before Yuan Ning realized that it was getting dark, so he hurriedly said goodbye to Zhou Yulin, and rode his bicycle back home.

As soon as he entered the house, Yuan Ning saw Zhang Xiuyan sitting in the living room.
