At first, she thought that Go was a game of playthings, but as she learned about it, she gradually discovered that Go is a historical crystallization full of wisdom.

In the more than 4,000 years of history of Go, countless people have praised and praised that Go is no longer just a skill, but has evolved into a culture and Tao.

The more she learned about Go, the more narrow and ridiculous her previous prejudices were, and because of this, she became more determined to support her granddaughter.

"Auntie, it's great that you can support you, let us juniors do the specific things, just let me arrange it." Zhang Zhijun was very happy, he still remembered that when he first talked about letting Xiaoya learn Go, Lin Xiaotong still looked not salty and unwilling.

Last time he came, he had already felt Lin Xiaotong's change in thinking, but he didn't expect that this time she became eager to take the initiative, with the support of her guardian, Xiaoya's path to learning chess would be smooth sailing.

"Zhijun, then I'll trouble you." Lin Xiaotong said gratefully.

"Auntie, I'll go over today, and we'll come over on Saturday afternoon, and we'll have to disturb my aunt then."

"Don't bother, I want to trouble you to take care of Xiaoya more, she is weak and inconvenient, and I want you to come here to learn chess." Lin Xiaotong kept sending Zhang Zhijun downstairs, and only after watching him leave did he take a deep breath.

Looking at Zhang Zhijun's disappearing figure, Lin Xiaotong himself fell into memory.

When Xiaoya was named after the full moon, she gave Xiaoya such a name despite public opinion, and deliberately used the same word "Xiao" as her, hoping that Xiaoya could inherit her father's wishes.

She still vividly remembers what her father said to her before he died.

"Xiaotong, do you know why I named you with a Xiao character?" The dying father spoke unusually clearly, without the slightest hesitation.

"Father, you want me to be smart and reasonable."

"Yes, I'll give you a name in the hope that you can ......," the father's words suddenly stopped, and the arm stretched out to her stiffened, and then hung down weakly.

Her father passed away, and Lin Xiaotong was not sure what her father hoped for, but she understood that her father had some hope for her, and because of this, she also considered this Xiaozi when naming her son, but was denied by her husband and mother-in-law.

When it came to her granddaughter, she could finally add this Xiaozi to it, although Xiaotong and Xiaoya sounded more like sisters than grandchildren, but her insistence made her relatives have to agree with this result.

However, about this word, Lin Xiaotong has just learned a little more about the meaning.

It was two days ago when she was looking through the Go materials when she saw such a sentence.

"Yao, formerly known as Xiao, made Go, and taught his son Danzhu ......" This sentence was originally just an introduction to Yao and Go, but that Xiao word hit Lin Xiaotong's nerves like an electric shock.

Maybe it's just a coincidence, maybe it's an accident, Lin Xiaotong vaguely saw his father playing Go with others in his childhood memories, but the vague fragment can no longer be distinguished.

But this is another aspect that confirms the fate of Xiaozi and Go.

"Xiaoya, since you like Go, then you have to work hard." Lin Xiaotong put away her thoughts, pushed open the door of the house, and looked at her granddaughter who was staring at the chessboard in the living room, she showed a smile of relief.

On Friday night, a cold snap swept through Maple City.

Saturday morning was quite cold, but fortunately, the indoor heating had not stopped, and Ye Xiaoya got up early in the morning and started to play chess.

She has read more than half of the Go book sent by Zhang Zhijun, and with her in-depth understanding of Go, she can already sweep through many knowledge points and questions in it.

But for those masters' chess games, Ye Xiaoya felt more and more troubled.

Most of the games presented in the book are by professional masters, and many times she has a flash of inspiration that the chess played by the player is not the best method.

However, in the analysis and explanation of the game, it does not say so, but only with a few specious change diagrams, and at best only mentions a few basic changes.

However, let Ye Xiaoya think about the chess games herself, those chess that are not the best choice, what the problem is, and how to deal with and deal with it, she can't figure it out.

It's as if that flash of thought is just a beautiful fantasy.

But Ye Xiaoya firmly believes that her aura is correct, but her Go level has not yet reached the point of understanding that aura, so she works harder and focuses on thinking and improving.

At about three o'clock in the afternoon, Zhang Zhijun led a slightly chubby man in his forties and wearing a black suit to Ye Xiaoya's house.

As soon as he entered the door, Zhang Zhijun introduced: "Auntie, this is Teacher Bai, he is here to see Xiaoya today." ”

"Welcome, hello Mr. Bai, you have worked hard." Lin Xiaotong said immediately.

"Hello eldest sister, don't be so polite, my name is Bai Changle, you can call me brother, you can also call me Xiaobai, or Changle." The man had a wise smile on his face, but he spoke very kindly, "I heard Xiao Zheng talk about your granddaughter, let's take a look today, if your granddaughter is really that good, you must cultivate it well." ”

"Teacher Bai, Xiaoya is playing chess inside." Lin Xiaotong nodded and led the two to the living room, "Xiaoya, this is Teacher Bai." ”

"Hello, Mr. Bai." Ye Xiaoya stopped the chess in her hand, stood up and said politely.

These days, she feels that her physical condition is getting better and better, and as she feels her chess skills improve, her body is also recovering rapidly.

Although the two are not known to have any connection, one thing is for sure, and that is that playing Go will not make her feel tired and unwell.

"Sit down, I heard that you are weak and can't stand for a long time, just sit down and talk." Bai Changle nodded, glanced at the weak little girl, and his eyes fell on the chess game she was arranging.

The chess game of more than 100 moves is at the critical moment when the two sides are fighting each other, and the advantages and disadvantages of the two sides cannot be seen from the chess situation.

"Whose game are you playing?" Bai Changle asked.

"This is a game of chess between Lee Chang-ho and Cho Hoon-hyun." Ye Xiaoya said.

"Oh, I have an impression of this game of chess, and in the end it was Lee Chang-ho who won the middle game, do you see anything?" Bai Changle asked again.

"I ......" Ye Xiaoya hesitated for a moment before continuing: "I'm thinking about this move, whether I can walk on this side of the second route." ”

"Oh, this point is interesting...... Bai Changle took a serious look, and then said: "The black chess point is really good, but if white makes up a hand, it seems that black chess is of no use except for the loss of a robbery." ”

In fact, from the first time Bai Changle saw this little girl playing chess so seriously, he knew that this girl was amazing, an absolute genius.

He has been teaching Go for decades, and although he has always been a part-time student, he has taught more than 1,000 students.

He had never seen anyone who had just learned it for a long time and was able to study chess games on his own, let alone find his own ideas in chess games after this kind of self-study.

You must know that this kind of professional master's game is already very good to understand, but you can also find out some points that you think are better, which cannot be said with simple talent.
