"What did the doctor say?"

"It's serious!"

"How serious is it?"

"The doctor said that it will probably affect his entire professional Go career."

"Oh! Does my master know about it himself? ”

"Alas, who would dare to tell him such a thing to his face. And we don't even know how to talk about it. Qian Da's momentum this year is so good, in everyone's opinion, his chess skills are also maturing, and now is the time to make results! But all of a sudden, there was such a thing. It's just that we can't accept it. I really hope that what the doctor said is wrong, and I hope that Qian Da's condition is not so serious. ”

"What are the specific recommendations of the doctor at the moment?"

"I can't participate in high-intensity professional Go tournaments anyway! At the very least, you must take a one-year leave from work. As for what will happen in a year, it depends on the status of this treatment. ”

"Leave? Let my master not be able to touch Go for 1 year? So does he himself agree? ”

"That's why we're here for you. For the sake of his health, we must listen to the doctor's advice. When we told Qian Da about the doctor's advice, he was silent for a long time, and he didn't say yes or disagree. He just told us that he really wanted to meet you now. So we brought you over. Xiaoqiang, we all know that you have the best relationship with Qian Da, and in normal times, it is also the two of you who spend the most time playing chess together. We can all see that Qian Da actually regards you as his bosom friend. A kind of bosom friend on the concept of Go. That's why he thinks of you at this time. So go in and persuade him. ”

"Don't worry, I know what to say......"

When Li Xiaoqiang walked into Qian Yuping's room alone, his mood was very complicated. In normal history, Qian Yuping was half a year later, on the eve of his World Series finals. It was only then that he suddenly fell ill, which led to the only abstention in the World Series final. Therefore, when Li Xiaoqiang heard the news that Qian Yuping had fallen ill in advance, he didn't react at first.

Regarding Qian Yuping's situation, Li Xiaoqiang is the same as all chess fans. That's "pity". I feel sorry for Qian Yuping. Sorry for Chinese Go! Therefore, when Li Xiaoqiang was reborn, he also wanted to work hard to save this matter.

But the helplessness of life lies in this, even if Li Xiaoqiang is a reborn, there are many things that cannot be redeemed by relying on his efforts. For example, for Qian Yuping's illness, Li Xiaoqiang didn't know what to do at all.

Qian Yuping suffers from a neurological disease. It's probably similar to "depression" or something like that. For such a disease, even in the afterlife, there is actually no good way. What's more, even if Li Xiaoqiang knew that he might get this disease, he had no way to say it. It's impossible for him to run and say, "Now it's time to pay attention." What kind of disease might so-and-so get......"

This is obviously impossible, if he does, then Li Xiaoqiang is really "sick".

Li Xiaoqiang did not know the specific circumstances of this disease. However, there should be no controversy about the trigger for Qian Yuping's disease. It's nothing more than that he's too obsessed with Go. Frequent overuse of the brain. In addition, the obsession in his heart is too heavy, and he attaches too much importance to the victory or defeat of each game of chess. That's why it led to the tragedy of Qian Yuping.

Therefore, from the perspective of "prevention", as long as these two conditions are eliminated, then Qian Yuping will not get sick.

But the question is, can you help Qian Yuping eliminate these two conditions? Li Xiaoqiang believes that no one can do this. Because Qian Yuping is a simple chess idiot. You don't let him participate in the tournament, or even expose him to Go. If you do, it's worse than killing him.

Let's say, give you a person who might get sick. But at the same time, Qian Yuping, who may become a Go master. Or a healthy, but at the same time probably very mediocre money in the flat. How do you choose such a multiple-choice question? I guess it's hard to choose. If it is Qian Yuping's relative, then he will choose the latter without hesitation. What if it's Qian Yuping himself? He is expected to firmly choose the former. And people like Li Xiaoqiang, he can't help others make choices. He will also be torn between a rock and a hard place.

Therefore, Li Xiaoqiang usually gets along with Qian Yuping. It's nothing more than talking about something other than Go. Pull Qian Yuping to exercise, hoping that he can become more cheerful. So as to prevent this tragedy from happening. In fact, there is only so much Li Xiaoqiang can do.

Li Xiaoqiang's usual practice. In fact, many people on the Go team are very strange. They don't understand why Li Xiaoqiang, who is usually very taciturn, often has nothing to say when he is with Qian Yuping, and all kinds of "jokes" emerge in endlessly. Therefore, they can only understand that these two people are particularly close to each other.

But now it seems that what Li Xiaoqiang usually does does not seem to have any obvious effect. What should have happened, it happened now, and it was a little bit earlier.

When Li Xiaoqiang saw Qian Yuping, he found that although he was a little decadent, his mental condition was better than he imagined. This also made Li Xiaoqiang breathe a sigh of relief.

"Master, I'm here to see you......"

"Xiaoqiang is here, come, come and talk with me for a while...... By the way, Chen Lao and Lao Nie called you out of the training room, right? I'm sorry to affect your training. True...... I'm so sorry. ”

When Qian Yuping saw Li Xiaoqiang, he had a childlike sincere smile on his face, and he even felt sorry for affecting Li Xiaoqiang's training. Looking at the simple Qian Yuping, looking at this Qian Yuping who was born for chess. Li Xiaoqiang's nose was a little sour.

"Master, don't say that, it's okay to delay a little training time. Hehe, anyway, I was just playing chess there alone. And you should know, if I play chess alone, what can I gain? Only when you help me dismantle the chess, my gain will be great. Master, take good care of your body, I'm still waiting for you to help me dismantle the chess. ”

"Hahaha, yes, yes, I actually like to play chess with you the most. When I was with you, it was such a pleasure...... Hey, it seems like the two of us haven't dismantled chess for a long time, right? Alas! Blame me for this damn headache......"

In general, Li Xiaoqiang is not a person who is very good at saying good things. Therefore, on such an occasion, he can only talk to Qian Yuping. Say words of blessing and comfort. Fortunately, Qian Yuping is even more white than Li Xiaoqiang, and he doesn't know what to say except for Go. Therefore, after the two talked nonsense for a long time, they almost wanted to find a chessboard and dismantle the chess.

Fortunately, this is a hospital, and there is no such condition. What's more, the doctor issued an injunction prohibiting Qian Yuping from touching Go during this time period. The two had no choice but to give up.

When he came into contact with Qian Yuping, Li Xiaoqiang could feel Qian Yuping's pain. However, I found that his mental condition was much better than I expected. This also made Li Xiaoqiang feel a lot more relieved. And listening to the meaning of Qian Yuping's words, he is now ready to accept the reality and actively cooperate with the doctor's treatment. Get ready for a return to chess a year later.

In short, it can be thought that Li Xiaoqiang is seeing it now. is a more tangled heart, but full of hope Qian Yuping. is not as Li Xiaoqiang imagined, it is a desperate and decadent Qian Yuping. This also made Li Xiaoqiang's mood much better.

Li Xiaoqiang's mood in front of him was changed by Qian Yuping's last sentence until he was about to say goodbye.

When Li Xiaoqiang was about to leave, when he walked to the door, Qian Yu said in peacetime:

"Xiaoqiang, huh...... Actually, this time I called you over, I called you over...... Nothing happened either. It is...... That's when you're in the Fujitsu Cup. You...... You have to take care of it! ”

When Qian Yuping grabbed Li Xiaoqiang's hand tightly, when he cast his earnest and almost pleading gaze on Li Xiaoqiang. Li Xiaoqiang's heart was shocked, and at this moment, he finally thought through all the problems.

In a past life. Qian Yuping fell ill after qualifying for the Fujitsu Cup finals. That was when he was ready to hit the top of the world chess world, and it was precisely because of this strong contrast that all people felt particularly sorry. And what about himself? , which can also be particularly painful.

But now it's different. Qian Yuping has yet to prove himself in the next World Series. Therefore, he himself did not know how powerful he was, and without this strong contrast, all the stimulation he received would not be so great. Let's be honest. His kind of illness should not be strongly stimulated. So from this angle, he got sick early, which was good for his health.

What's more, he still has hope in his heart. I hope that when my illness is cured, I can return to the center of the world chess world. But to be honest, is it possible for his hope to become a reality?

Li Xiaoqiang thinks: It's difficult!

In his previous life, Qian Yuping rested for a while. He did make a comeback and was runners-up in the Asian Cup once. However, after that, he completely retired from professional chess due to physical reasons.

Do you want to say that Qian Yuping will know nothing about his physical condition? Li Xiaoqiang believes that this is also impossible. He just loves Go very much, and he is not reconciled. Let's say now, for example. In recent times, he has been in the limelight, and he has played a lot of chess. The maturity of his chess skills is visible to everyone. For a chess player, in fact, he can also feel his own progress. Therefore, Qian Yuping at this time can be regarded as when he is full of ambition, and he is eager to show his skills in the World Series. Now that he's sick, he knows he doesn't have that chance. And although he has hope for what will happen in a year, he is actually bottomless. Therefore, when he is in this state, he will find a spiritual sustenance.

The spiritual sustenance he was looking for was actually placed on Li Xiaoqiang!

When Qian Yuping held his hand tightly, when Qian Yuping asked himself to "go down" in an almost pleading voice. Li Xiaoqiang thought he knew what Qian Yuping meant.

At this moment, Li Xiaoqiang once again recalled the days when he and Qian Yuping played chess, and recalled the "reverse review method" created by the two......

"Master, don't worry! This "blunt knife" of yours will definitely not be lost! ”

After Li Xiaoqiang finished saying this, he glanced at Qian Yuping deeply. He strode out of the room.

"The World Series, I'm finally here now! Then let's take a look and see if I, Li Xiaoqiang, am qualified to bear Qian Yuping's ardent expectations......"

Li Xiaoqiang, as the third place in the individual competition, substituted for the right to participate in this "Fujitsu Cup". Then you don't have to go to that tryout. Before the "Fujitsu Cup" came. There happens to be a domestic competition that allows Li Xiaoqiang to fully warm up. That is the 4th Chinese Go "Tian Yuan Tournament".

Due to Qian Yuping's illness, it also made this Tianyuan Race special. Since the Tian Yuan Battle is a "challenge system". And he was the champion of the previous competition, so in this way, the "challenge" could not be held normally. Therefore, the top 2 players had to be determined by a single elimination. The last two players will play a five-way final to determine the 4th Chinese Go game "Tian Yuan".

"Master, you can take a good look at my performance......"

Li Xiaoqiang walked into the arena of the "Tianyuan" competition with a different mood. (To be continued......)
