42 Ordinary
Yang Zheng is not without desires, on the contrary, he also has a lot of desires.
It's just that now he is calm after anger, and the concentration that only that calm can have, allows him to see through the little tricks on the other side.
The opposite side is indeed a master, and the abandoned pieces are all discarded chess pieces with relatively small strength.
But it's too obvious, it's okay to deceive people, but he met Yang Zheng, and he has a lot of experience in fighting.
Moreover, he played against all first-class masters.
As the leader of the current chess world, Commander Xu once said that if chess wants to improve its strength quickly, it must play against first-class masters, learn his thinking, lay out ideas, and learn their calmness when they encounter a desperate situation.
Calm, these two words, in fact, are also the biggest difference between ordinary people and chess masters.
Especially when you're in a desperate situation, calm can be more useful than anger.
Yang Zheng's calm response made the other side a little scrambling.
The other side is also very smart no longer trying to abandon the child, and chooses a more secure defense, intending to play steadily.
But the abandoned son of the previous layout was like a mud puddle, which made his defensive layout have a big hole.
He had no choice but to "make amends" to turn the previous abandoned pawn back into a useful defensive pawn.
But this also slowed down his progress.
obviously mastered the advantage of "two hands" at the beginning, and because of his return defense, Yang Zheng's two hands became worse.
This back and forth, a total of four hands surpassed, which also made Yang Zheng's attack more ferocious.
In the middle game, the opposite player has the idea of surrendering.
But this is a knockout round after all, and he doesn't have a second chance to rearrange, so he can only go hard.
Many times, chess is like life.
A wrong choice, a seemingly hesitant choice, can affect the outcome of a game of chess to a greater or lesser extent.
But whether it's a wrong choice or a hesitant choice, in fact, in the end, it can take time to make up for it.
People, the most afraid is the many choices in front of them, they don't know what they should choose, and they want to choose all of them, they also seem to have a lot of choices, but in the end they find that they have no choice.
He thought he had chosen to continue, and he went down to the end. Looking at the ending of his powerlessness, he finally understood that when he decided to choose, he chose to give up all his choices.
Chess should be a very pure thing.
He suddenly remembered that the reason why he liked chess before was not because it brought him wealth, status, and other material things, but because it brought him satisfaction and happiness.
At that time, he didn't care too much about winning or losing, he went all out in every game of chess, and even if he lost, he had no regrets.
He also doesn't try to calculate his opponents off the board, because he thinks that as long as he likes chess, he is not a bad guy.
But why, after knowing that Muzi Cup could become a professional chess player, he became calculating and planning?
Why, he deliberately lost his game before, in order to enter what he considered to be the "related household group".
He is clearly not such a person.
He is obviously outside of chess, and has the same wonderful real life, but for the ethereal thing of a professional chess player, he has actually become afraid and pathetic to himself.
Looking at the end of his total loss, he sighed with relief.
It seems that no matter how he changes, the moment he sees his failure, he still has the same resentment and regret in his heart as before.
It seems that I have also found my truest self at this moment.
"Thank you." He stood up after the game and looked at the young man opposite, who didn't know why he said those two words.
Yang Zheng was also a little surprised, he still didn't react.
He didn't know why the other side was thanking himself, it was obvious that he had won, but the other side not only did not have a decadent trend, but was full of energy and was grateful to himself.
This inexplicable gratitude also made the word poor appear in Yang Zheng's head for the first time.
He thought for a long time before replying with the same word thank you, but when he finished saying thank you, he lowered his head and only felt that his face was hot.
"Thank you for letting me understand that I was too eager to achieve quick success." He looked at Yang Zheng's appearance, and he hurriedly explained with a smile.
"Thank you for making me understand that chess is a very pure thing."
Listening to the opponent's more inexplicable explanation, Yang Zheng was also silent.
He is a person who is good at learning things from others, and he has been able to hear the word pure for a long time.
He looked up at his opponent, and this time, he said thank you again.
Only this time, Yang Zheng said it seriously.
……
There are still ten minutes to go before the last game, and there is no fat man by Yang Zheng's side.
After the fat man had just lost the game, he generously admitted his love for chess, and then he rushed back to work in the company.
It's his choice, and it's the choice of life.
Without the fat man, Yang Zheng not only felt as if he was missing a confidant by his side, but also felt that in this game, he seemed to have become a lonely person.
He sat down on the steps and couldn't help but think back to what his opponent had just said to him.
He was a little sorry, the other side was indeed a master, if he hadn't met him, maybe he would have been able to reach the final.
But it's just maybe, after all, the fat man is also favored by himself, but in the end, he was still killed by an unknown chess master and lost his armor.
This also proves in disguise that in this game, there are also chess masters who are not inferior to themselves.
At this time, Yang Zheng was no longer entangled in the matter of Wittda's arrangement of groupings for himself.
Because he also understood in the game just now that no matter how he was grouped, he would have to play against real chess masters sooner or later.
Since you have come with the consciousness that you must become a professional player, you must do your best no matter who your opponent is.
He seems to have understood this truth too late.
It seems that because my recent life has been too smooth, I seem to have unconsciously let down the vigilance that a chess player should have.
Pure these two words, it is a good point.
Chess should indeed be pure, pure winning and losing, pure all-out, and even more pure desire.
He shook his head, unconsciously, every next game, he will also learn some life principles in this game of chess, these principles are big and small, right and wrong, but without exception, these principles are also subtly changing themselves.
I have always been just an ordinary person, with the desires of ordinary people, but also the unwillingness and anger of ordinary people, and I also know that I am not a big person, and it will be difficult to become a big man in the future.
But to be an ordinary person, there is also a small happiness and happiness that ordinary people have.
Just like now, sitting on the steps, looking at the clouds in the sky, and looking forward to his next opponent, what kind of insights can he bring to himself?
