After the draw ceremony, everyone agreed to meet in Beijing, China in June. The second day was the day when the Chinese delegation returned to China.

Early in the morning of the second day, it was Yukari Umezawa who came to find Li Xiaoqiang first. Since this matter was said on the first day, Li Xiaoqiang also made a little preparation in advance.

This time, Zhang Zhidong was still the only one who accompanied Li Xiaoqiang. The other players didn't follow. Because when Umezawa conveyed Mr. Kato's invitation yesterday, it seemed that he only "invited" Li Xiaoqiang alone. Besides, the Japanese side invited Li Xiaoqiang to come over, mainly because it wanted young chess players from China and Japan to communicate more. Therefore, other adult masters are embarrassed to go themselves.

Maybe it's because he helped Li Xiaoqiang draw a "good sign". Yukari Umezawa, who was walking on the road, seemed to be in a good mood, at least she relaxed a lot in front of Li Xiaoqiang. There was talk and laughter along the way, and it was not as restrained as before.

Such a change can be seen by reporter Zhang Da. Because when Li Xiaoqiang was able to contact Yukari Umezawa, he was basically there. It seems that there has never been a fall. When Yukari Umezawa wasn't paying attention, he secretly gave Li Xiaoqiang a thumbs up. Looking at his expression, that's more**many**. To sum it up in one sentence: it is very bad.

Li Xiaoqiang only came over with Zhang Zhidong. However, when he arrived at his destination, he was still startled by the formation inside. In addition to seeing young chess players such as Takao Shinji, even "not young" chess players such as Ita Kiki and Satoshi Yuki are also inside. Not only that, but there are also two super-first-class chess players, Hero Otake and Masao Kato. There are also Sakata Eio and Fujisawa Hideyuki, two famous names in the Japanese Go world.

Looking at this, the Japanese Go community attaches great importance to this exchange. In this room, representatives of all ages in the Japanese Go world are gathered.

After a few brief greetings, Mr. Fujisawa Hideyuki, who had the best relationship with Li Xiaoqiang, spoke. His old gentleman sat in his seat with a big grin and waved his hand, and he went straight to the point:

"Li San. What do you mean by inviting you to come over today. Actually, it's not an exchange, but I invite you to be a lecturer. Let's talk to these young chess players around you about your own cultivation path. You don't have to be so inhibited, because according to your level and strength, you are qualified to be this lecturer. Of course, that's what we're asking you for. But you have to be careful, you don't have to be polite when you start speaking, let alone perfunctory. You have to tell the truth......"

When he said this, this old god even made a grimace at Li Xiaoqiang:

“…… You see these people around you, too. I'm not afraid to be honest with you, how many of us? In fact, it is specially here to supervise you. Supervise whether you're playing tricks or not. Just say some polite words here......"

Mr. Hideyuki Fujisawa has said that to this extent. Then Li Xiaoqiang has nothing to say. Fortunately, he is a human being in two lives, and this kind of scene can still be handled. Li Xiaoqiang didn't talk a lot of nonsense, and after he organized his language a little, he walked to the front desk and talked eloquently to a group of young Japanese chess players.

Of course, at this time, Yukari Umezawa still has to act as his translator, a real "full-time translator".

"Since Mr. Xiuyuki said such a thing, then I must obey the order. Of course. We are all chess players, and we must know the breadth and depth of Go. So in such a short period of time, I won't really be able to produce anything. I think so. Since we are all chess players, then I will use chess to speak, and then by the way, I will talk a little bit about my thoughts and a little bit of my experience on the path of cultivation. ”

That's the opening remark. Li Xiaoqiang walked among everyone and set up chess on the chessboard by himself.

Seeing that the "wizard on the chessboard" was ready to "speak with chess", all the chess players present became interested. Including reporter Zhang Da and Sakata. Otake and others. I want to hear what Li Xiaoqiang is going to say.

Li Xiaoqiang's first game of chess was actually finished quickly. Because he only played less than 20 moves. Not only that, but when he finished the game, many of the players present were actually very familiar with the situation.

Because Li Xiaoqiang is playing a "historical game", it is the first game of the "Kamakura Juban Chess" played by Mr. Wu Qingyuan and Mr. Minoru Kitani. And this game, in fact, can be regarded as the beginning of Mr. Wu Qingyuan's domination of the world.

Of course, Li Xiaoqiang's start actually has nothing to do with Mr. Wu. When he reached the 13th move, his hand stopped. As soon as his hand stopped, Mr. Otake and the others began to look at each other and smile bitterly. Because at this time, they almost understood what Li Xiaoqiang meant.

Because this hand is famous! In later generations, this move became almost a story. It has become a story that has been quoted by everyone repeatedly. It has even become a mantra often said by people in the Go world.

A mantra of "being scolded by the gentleman"!

The story goes like this: The 13th hand of this game was played by Mr. Minoru Kitani. According to the records of the reporters who watched the game at the time, when Mr. Minoru Kitani played this move. As he fell, he muttered to himself:

"I'm sure I'll be scolded by Mr. Ben Infang again, but I still want to go here this time......"

The "Mr. Beninbo" in the mouth of Minoru Kitani is actually a higher rank than them. When Minoru Kitani was young, Hideya was the "undefeated celebrity" of Japanese Go. It can be regarded as an authority in the Go world. Therefore, it is normal for Minoru Kitani to call him "sir".

The reason why Minoru Kitani said this is because this is the second time he has played this move. At that time, he took a "three-way turn". And when he made this move for the first time, this move was criticized by Hideya's predecessors. Xiuya's predecessors believe that in the current situation, it should be better to take one step of "two ways of flying" than this step of "three ways of turning".

That's it, an allusion to being scolded by the first hand was born. For a long time, such a story, especially the move "Three Turns", was used to illustrate Mr. Minoru Kitani's chess style and his personality. The so-called "solid Kitani Stream" began from this place. But has anyone thought about any other meaning? If you interpret this story in depth, what can it say?

The vast majority of the Japanese chess players present should know this story. So when they saw Li Xiaoqiang posing for this picture. They were silent, and they all wanted to see how a Chinese teenager interpreted the story.

"The story of this move doesn't need to be explained, right? I think it's clear to everyone. But there's one detail in this story that intrigues me a lot. I'll go into that detail now. Let's also think about it together......"

“…… I noticed that in this story, everyone's attention seems to be focused on Mr. Kitani's "three-way turn", while Mr. Hideya's "two-way Xiaofei" is rarely mentioned. So I'm going to ask you now, which one is better in this part? Attention, please answer me after thinking clearly, and if you are not sure, you can also discuss it with your partners. But after everyone has discussed it, everyone must have a clear answer. Let's wait for everyone's conclusions before continuing. ”

In fact, this question does not stand up to in-depth thinking. Those sitting here are all Go masters. Therefore, this conclusion should not be difficult to come to a conclusion. Mr. Kitani's "three-way turn" is compared to Mr. Hideya's "two-way Xiaofei". Although the difference between the two is not large, it is placed in the vast majority of situations. It should be better to "two-way Xiaofei". Because under normal circumstances, the way out of "Erlu Xiaofei" is smoother, and the number of meshes is slightly better.

Of course, this "slightly better" is indeed only a little bit, maybe not even 1 eye, at most only half an eye. Still, good is good in Go. Because of these two benefits, it is better to say that "two-way Xiaofei" is better than "three-way turn". That should make sense in most cases.

And the benefits of "two-way Xiaofei" are actually clear to everyone. This move is won by "solidity". Nothing else is good. Compared with "Two-Way Xiaofei". Its actual role in actual combat may be one less robbery. Because if you play "two-way Xiaofei", the opponent will see that there is a step to "rush".

"A smooth way out" is real, and "better meshes" is also real. And what about a robbery? In a whole game of chess. It may not be able to help.

But why does Mr. Minoru Kitani still have to take this solid "three turns"? The only reason for him is that he attaches more importance to the thickness of chess, because "less robbery is also thicker".

That's what he values, so he'd rather throw away the other 2 advantages.

"Li San. We all know this story very well, and we have just come to a conclusion, if it is our own. We may all take that step to "fly two ways", and at the same time, we all admire Mr. Muya's persistence. But why are you telling us this? We don't quite understand what you mean. ”

"Really? Do you really admire Mr. Kitani's persistence? I don't think so! Indeed, because there is not much difference between these two moves, there is no particularly obvious difference between good and bad. So you don't have a clear touch. But what if it's this move......"

At this time, Li Xiaoqiang quickly placed a famous chess shape on the chessboard......

That's right, his moves are indeed very "famous", because this is the most famous move in Go:

"Star Position Spire Flying Hang"

“…… What if it's this move? When you really want to play this move, do you worry about "being scolded by the gentleman" in the game? ”

"This ......"

"I can tell you clearly that when I am practicing or in competitions, I never worry about being scolded by my husband! I even wish I had played "scolded by my husband" so that I would have a better chance of winning. That's right, that's what I think! Do you understand what I mean? ”

When it comes to this level, Li Xiaoqiang is still very young, so there are some words that he can't go into. As for how much these young Japanese players can listen to. That's none of Li Xiaoqiang's business.

Li Xiaoqiang then answered many questions from young Japanese chess players. Li Xiaoqiang was conscientious when he answered, and there was nothing to hide. But what those young Japanese chess players think, Li Xiaoqiang actually doesn't know very well. Because his words have to be translated by Yukari Umezawa. And whether Mei Ze can translate it in place, Li Xiaoqiang is actually worried.

But overall, the scene was quite enthusiastic, and it looked like it was happy.

Time flies quickly, and Li Xiaoqiang is about to leave. When everyone's topic finally turned to Li Xiaoqiang's mysterious identity, the identity of the "ancient chess heir". Li Xiaoqiang was in a dilemma because he didn't know how to introduce Chinese ancient chess to these people.

Just as he was leaving, Li Xiaoqiang suddenly came up with an idea of "prank". He suddenly smiled and said to Yukari Umezawa:

"Yukari, go, you go over and ask your master to come over. I have a super problem here, and I guess your master may not be able to solve it correctly. However, it seems that only your master, Mr. Kato, who is known as the Heavenly Star, is the most qualified to answer this question......"

When Umezawa Yukari walked up to her master suspiciously. When she conveyed Li Xiaoqiang's words to Mr. Kato. Not only Kato, but also Mr. Sakata, Mr. Hideyuki and Mr. Otake are all interested. Other young chess players are even more curious, and they all want to see what Li Xiaoqiang calls a "super problem".

When Mr. Kato and the others came over, Li Xiaoqiang walked to a chessboard with a smile. He wanted to let these Japanese colleagues see the treasures of ancient Chinese chess.

What prank did Li Xiaoqiang think of? (To be continued......)
