Chapter 19: The Master-Apprentice Duel
Seoul in September is so hot that it's like a big stove, and it's going to dry people into dried fish.
Lee Jae looked at Seoul, a city that will be renamed Seoul next year, and felt that as the capital of a country, it was still quite good, at least it looked much more prosperous than Daejeon.
Because Li Cai entered the Samsung Cup competition, Gu Dali also fulfilled his promise to Li Cai and invited Li Cai to have a big meal.
While everyone was resting in the hotel, the two of them secretly left the hotel and went to have a big meal.
Gu Dali took Li Cai to a restaurant that looked high-end, Gu Dali had come to Seoul many times to compete, so he was very familiar with the vicinity of the Seoul Chess Academy.
Entering the restaurant, Gu Dali was speaking broken Korean while making gestures, and Li Cai couldn't bear to look directly at him. But the waiter who received them actually understood, it seems that he has received more guests like Gu Dali, and he is already very familiar with it.
During the time that Gu Dali and Li Cai got along, they knew that Li Cai loved beef and had a soft spot for beef, so he ordered two servings of Korean beef and one serving of pork belly.
While waiting, Gu Dali said: "Senior brother, do you see, you should learn more knowledge, be the same as senior brother, become a knowledgeable person, don't only know how to play chess, but also have more hobbies, such as football and the like." ”
After listening to Senior Brother Gu Dali's words, Li Cai imitated Gu Dali's actions when he ordered food just now, twisting around, like a clown, and then said, "Senior brother, you were like this just now, and I felt embarrassed next to me." ”
After listening to Li Cai's words, Gu Dali's face was not red, but he said lightly: "Is it? ”
Regarding the threat of senior brother Gu Dali, Li Cai immediately coaxed and obediently shut up. After all, if you smell the smell of meat in the store, you will be miserable if you can't eat it then.
Seeing Li Cai calm down, Gu Dali smiled with satisfaction, for Li Cai's little junior brother, the people in the chess courtyard felt that he was not like a child, just like an adult, too calm. However, judging from today's performance, in terms of food, his little brother is still a child.
Soon, the waiter brought the meat and side dishes, and Gu Dali began to roast the meat.
After a while, the meat made a sizzling sound, and it was very tempting, and Li Cai watched from the side and swallowed his saliva.
While waiting for the meat to cook, smell the meat
The fragrance emitted can be said to be the greatest torture in the world.
Looking at the side dishes on the table, there were kimchi that are common in Korean meals, and Li Cai tried it curiously.
After eating, Li Cai felt that it was not to his taste, and it was not as delicious as Huaguo's mustard.
The meat was finally cooked, and Li Cai didn't care whether it was hot or not, so he took a large piece and stuffed it into his mouth.
"Hey, it's hot. ”
Although Li Cai was scalded by the freshly grilled meat, he didn't spit it out, and in Li Cai's words, the meat in his mouth had to be eaten even if it was hot.
Seeing that Li Cai was scalded by the meat, Gu Dali laughed. Then he took the lettuce and wrapped the meat, and then stuffed it into his mouth, and watched the demonstration of his senior brother Gu Dali, Li Cai also did the same, wrapped the meat and ate it. Sure enough, it is not hot at all when wrapped and eaten, because the moisture of the vegetables is reducing the calories of the meat.
After a full meal, Li Cai returned to the hotel with a big belly and Gu Dali.
Two days later, the Samsung Cup began.
And Li Cai's opponent in the first round was the teacher Nie Whirlwind.
Before the start of the competition, Li Cai participated in the international competition for the first time, and it was inevitable that he felt nervous. Nie Lao looked at the nervous Li Cai and scolded: "What are you nervous about, don't be afraid just because I am your teacher, you will have to compete with many chess players in the future, and you have to adapt to this kind of occasion." ”
After being lectured by the teacher, Li Cai took a deep breath and calmed down his nervous mood.
The game began, Li Cai knew the strength of the teacher very well, a super-first-class chess player, although now because of the illness caused by the decline in level, often make some low-level mistakes, and then bury the whole good chess game. But if he didn't make a mistake, few people would win him, so Li Cai directly used his skills.
At the beginning of the game and the layout, Mr. Nie always had the illusion that he was playing against himself (in fact, he was playing against himself).
The two of them played quickly, and soon reached the middle game, and Li Cai's skills were invalid, so he could only rely on his true level to play chess.
After Li Cai was strengthened, he became sensitive to changes in the chess game.
After Li Cai had no skills, his chess style became safe, and Nie Lao watched Li Cai retreat and forced in mercilessly.
Under Nie Lao's aggressive offensive, Li Cai struggled to support and waited for the chess game to turn around.
Finally, Nie Lao made a move and tried to continue attacking Li Cai's big dragon. In the eyes of others, there is no problem, but Li Cai keenly feels that there is a taste here, and the opportunity for him to fight back has come.
So, Li Cai fell into a long test, thinking about the changes behind this move, and how he could fight back.
After more than an hour of long examination, Li Cai directly broke off and divided one of Nie Lao's chess segments into two pieces, forming a situation of killing.
Looking at Li Caiduan, Nie Lao was stunned, he didn't expect Li Caichang to kill in the long exam. However, when he was calculating, he found that Li Cai should not be able to win.
Nie Lao didn't think much about it, and played according to the steps he thought of killing.
Unexpectedly, after a few moves, it was found that Li Cai actually abandoned the big dragon, converted, and turned the surrounding thick momentum into a reality.
Although Nie Lao killed Li Cai and a dragon, Li Cai was transformed, and the enclosed field was more than a dozen more than a dozen eyes than the big dragon.
Looking at Li Cai's change, Nie Lao was silent for a while, and his face was not leisurely.
Nie Lao thought about it for a long time, and found that there was no way to recover the gap between more than a dozen goals, and he knew that his calculation power had regressed, and the official could not compare to Li Cai, so he admitted defeat in the middle game.
Li Cai won the first round of the Samsung Cup and entered the round of 16.
After the game, Nie Lao said to his seven-year-old apprentice Li Cai: "Yes, it's okay, this conversion in the end is very exciting, and the next game will play as well as today, and it's best to come back with a championship." ”
After listening to the teacher's words, Li Cai nodded, although he knew that it would be difficult for him to win the championship, so he could basically ignore it. But you have to work hard in everything, in case you succeed.
Although Li Cai won the teacher in the first round, which was a small upset, many people didn't care too much. After all, everyone knows that Nie Whirlwind's current state is unstable, and he often makes faint moves that lead to losing chess.
Therefore, the media just reported that "the master-apprentice duel, the blue is better than the blue." ".
The first round is all over, and the roster for the second round is out soon.
Lee Jae's second round was against South Korea's future Go king, Lee Sedol.
In his previous life, the Samsung Cup championship was won by Lee Sedol.
However, with Li Cai's change, I don't know if I can win the Samsung Cup this time.
