On the day of the first game of the five-way chess final, at half past 10 in the morning, Lao Nie came to the Chinese Chess Academy early.

Well, there should be nothing wrong with this sentence, for most people, of course, half past ten is not early, but for a night owl like Lao Nie, this time is of course early to come to the chess academy.

However, there is no way, because this is the final of the World Series, and because of Li Xiangping's status as an amateur chess player, this competition has a high degree of attention, and the court TV sports channel decided to broadcast this game live early, and the commentator they hired in the first game is Lao Nie, so why did Lao Nie come to the chess academy early, he actually came to do his homework for the hanging plate explanation.

When Lao Nie arrived at the chess academy, of course, there were already chess players studying this game, and they were mainly young chess players.

"Teacher Nie."

"Hello Teacher Nie."

When everyone saw Lao Nie, they naturally greeted each other, but everyone knew Lao Nie, but Lao Nie couldn't recognize all the young chess players, especially today, there seemed to be several young and beautiful female chess players in the chess academy, which attracted Lao Nie's attention.

"Teacher Nie, this is Tang Li, my fellow countryman, we were still in a school back then, this is Mao Jiajun....."

Gu Dali's extra words when introducing Mao Jiajun attracted Lao Nie's attention:

"Jiajun is Mr. Ma's hometown, and he is the new beginning of last year, by the way, in last year's fixed stage competition, Li Xiangping also lost a game to her, and it was precisely because of that loss that Li Xiangping failed to set the stage.......

"Oh? You also won Li Xiangping in the game, hahaha, not bad, good, amazing. ”

Lao Nie laughed happily, but Mao Jiajun blushed and said: "It's not amazing, it's not amazing, I won last year's luck, and even Li Xiangping made it possible for me, Mr. Nie, you don't know, when Li Xiangping played with me at the time, he only lost to Chen Yaoyue in one game with 9 wins and 1 loss, and he only needed to win one game in the next 3 games to set the stage, maybe he was too relaxed, or he felt that it didn't matter if he lost another game, so I picked up a game." ”

"Then it's great that you can win, haven't you seen it, he is already competing for the world title with Li Canghao now......"

Lao Nie chatted with a group of young chess players and learned that the reason why several female chess players appeared in the chess academy was because Ma Xiaofei said that the Weijia team in which he was interested in setting up a "beautiful Go team" went to the China Chess Academy to go through the relevant registration procedures.

"Good! It's a good thing! Women can hold up half the sky, I will definitely support you in establishing a team, hahaha, that Mao Jiajun is right, since you and Li Xiangping participated in the fixed-stage competition in the same year, and also won him in the game, then it can be regarded as his senior sister, so this afternoon, go to the TV station with me to talk about this game of chess. ”

Although Mao Jiajun was only finalized last year, she is about the same age as Gu Dali and them, and 4 to 5 years older than Li Xiangping, so she can still afford this "senior sister". In the face of Lao Nie's invitation, Mao Jiajun naturally would not refuse, and in fact, it was impossible to refuse, so he accepted it after pretending to be modest and prevaricating a few words.

After finishing the matter of talking about chess partners, Lao Nie finally focused on the content of chess, and he asked Gu Dali:

"Well, there should be a game back now, right? What are they doing now? Did you start with anything new? ”

"It's not much now, just passed back more than 20 hands..... Gu Dali said to Lao Nie with a smile:

"But when it comes to new things, Li Xiangping's beginning, how can there be no new things, and his new tricks today, that's what you're best at, master, why don't you take a look."

"Oh, that's to see, hehehe......"

Lao Nie began to look at the chess games from Korea with the young people, because the number of hands was not much, the chess games were clear at a glance, and as soon as Lao Nie glanced at it, he showed a knowing smile:

"Hehe, it turned out to be practicing the "Muramasa Demon Knife", no wonder it's ......"

The first set of today's final was led by Li Canghao, who chose the more popular "wrong small eye worry-free corner" to start the game, and Li Xiangping should be "star small eye". Although this kind of opening of black chess is suspected of being "slow", it is solid and conducive to breaking up the situation, which can be said to be in line with Da Li's style.

Since there are so many "small eyes" on the chessboard, it is not surprising that the "Muramasa Demon Knife" appears.

And Lao Nie has always been recognized as an expert in the "Murazheng Demon Knife", and in his heyday that year, he didn't know how many masters he had won with this formula.

One of the most famous games, is a Sino-Japanese Go match against a Japanese master, Lao Nie used this formula to conceive a grand plan to abandon the child, forcing the pair to eat their own piece of chess, the Japanese chess player hesitated between eating or not eating for a long time, at the beginning or chose to eat chess, but after eating for a long time, Lao Nie walked out of the trick, if the opponent is greedy for the remnants, the overall situation will be a big loss.

However, when the Japanese chess players gave up the treatment of the precipice and were no longer ready to play chess, Lao Nie conceived a more ambitious plan to abandon the child and force the opponent to play chess again.

After several conversions, the Japanese chess player suffered a big loss, showing an early defeat, and finally chose to throw in anger when he was less than 150 moves. Because of this game, Lao Nie has won the reputation of an expert in the "Murazheng Demon Knife", which is why he will smile when he sees today's opening.

Of course, using the "Muramasa Demon Knife" to conceive the outcast tactics will only be established in the past and the present, and when the Go AI comes out, since the starting style of the "Muramasa Demon Knife" has been denied by the Go AI, it is unlikely that changes like this will occur in the future.

For example, in just a few days, Li Xiangping made a change that has not yet appeared in this era, no! It can't be said that there is no change now, but the change that Li Xiangping has made is a change that the Go AI of later generations thinks is very normal, and the two sides are "two points", but in this era, it is considered that the choice of white chess is more aggrieved, and even seems obscene and unbearable.

"Huh? White chess just "jumps" a single piece, and this is blocked by others, is that a chess? Although it can be broken here, but before it is broken, you have to make a loss exchange on the corner, no, no, how can it seem blunt in this way, vigorously, you have studied such a change, right? ”

Although this change made Lao Nie feel uncomfortable at first, he did not veto this change at the first time. The reason is very simple, because this change chosen by Li Xiangping can easily trigger a frontal contact battle locally.

And everyone knows that the frontal contact battle in Go is the easiest to hide the "flying knife", so Lao Nie asked everyone if they had studied it collectively at the first time.

"No, it's the first time I've seen it like this, let alone this change, even if it's the "Murasho Demon Knife", I rarely see Li Xiangping..... No, no, no, I can't say that Li Xiangping rarely plays, I remember last year's qualifiers, Li Xiangping practiced a "Murasho Demon Knife", he used one of the most vulgar changes to defeat the opponent, I still have the impression that I still have the impression that this change was provoked by Li Xiangping, he took the initiative to provoke the "Muramasa Demon Knife", this is the first time I have seen it. ”

"That's right."

Gu Dali's words aroused Lao Nie's interest:

"Since Li Xiangping took the initiative to provoke it, anyway, there is no new chess game coming now, so let's dismantle this change first."

This five-way chess final with Li Canghao started with a new change in the "Muramasa Demon Knife".
