Chapter 7: Victory and Defeat
This method of relying on breaking is extremely intense, even the old man did not fall for the first time. He slowly took a sip of the tea in the cup, and his mind was slowly thinking, but compared to Ling Yun, he naturally looked much more relaxed and comfortable. It didn't take long for the old man to fall again.
Obstruct! In the face of the broken move, this move is basically the only move, if the broken chess pieces are easily connected, even the strongest star chess master is afraid that it will not be acceptable.
Break! ... The first few chess moves of the old man were completely within Ling Yun's expectations, and Ling Yun responded step by step according to the previous calculation. The speed at which the two of them played chess also suddenly accelerated, and Ling Yun's confidence increased by one point with each move, as if the old man's chess path was not as terrible as he imagined.
However, this expected move did not last long, and on the fifth move, the old man changed his move again.
Strike! A way to send to death, unless you can capture the opponent's chess pieces by pounce, the average star chess player will never choose this move to give someone else's chess pieces for nothing. Although Ling Yun was puzzled, he had no choice, he decisively lifted the white chess piece sent into the mouth of the black chess, and waited for the next offensive of the white chess.
The old man faced the black pieces, and after a clever roll, he played some of the black pieces on the left into a ball of fools (ugly shapes), and then jumped to the exit of the black pieces, completely blocking the way out of the black pieces.
The blocked black discs should have been extremely dangerous, but next to the black discs, the white discs above the big flying corner were obviously in worse condition, with four white discs alone on top of the big flying corner, and the lower left and upper sides had been completely blocked by black. Only a zigzag path on the right leaves white to escape. Now it was Black's turn, and Lingyun had to block the last way out of the four white pieces, and the black and white pieces formed a duel. But even children who have learned a little bit of the rules can see that the result of this battle is clearly Ling Yun wins. However, at this moment, there was no trace of joy on Ling Yun's face.
In Ling Yun's expected diagram, the black chess pieces should have escaped from the sheep intestine path on the right, but when the game was really played, the old man abandoned his four chess pieces and blocked the black chess pieces on the left instead. Although he had killed White, the general situation had not improved much, and he frowned, finally seeing the old man's intentions.
Outcast! Even if you use all your strength, you can see the way clearly. But the crushing of the overall situation still made it difficult for Ling Yun in this game.
He can hold the big flying corner and strangle the white pieces above him in one fell swoop, but so what? The left side of the board is completely blocked by white, and the other black piece on the left has been silently killed by the discarded discs on this side. On the right, when black blocked white's four pieces, he was constantly harassed by white.
When Ling Yun decided to fight the old man here, the old man nimbly escaped from his attack. It was a fist that used all its strength, but now it smashed on a ball of cotton, failing to make a wave.
It's not without gains, at least compared to blind defense, the situation in black is much better. The situation has been pushed to a longer late stage, and the game can be pushed back, but will my body be able to withstand it? If it weren't for the recovery training at Ling Youyou's place yesterday, I am afraid that I would have fainted on the chessboard now.
It's not the time to give up, and no matter what the situation, it's not a reason to give up. Ling Yun lifted his spirit again, forcibly suppressing the deep exhaustion in the depths of his brain.
The game continues, the battle never stops, and the thinking never stops.
One step, two steps... Let the son's advantage shrink step by step in the hands of the old man, but Ling Yun used accurate calculations to constantly hinder the speed of the old man's disadvantage. One hundred and fifty hands... Two hundred hands... The situation is very close.
Most of the places on the board have been set. But there are still subtleties that are full of fighting. The exhaustion in the depths of the brain is now uncontrollable, and in the scorching situation, the only disadvantage that white has is gradually disappearing. As long as white takes even a little advantage, the relationship between black and white will be reversed.
There are not many battles left in the chess game, and I still have a chance to win. It's hard, but let the last shred of strength bloom in your soul. Ling Yun urged the last bit of vitality in his body and went all out to meet the final battle.
In fact, he also understands that although there are very few places where he can settle down at the moment, as long as the old man is willing, he can still get the last edge in this gap.
But in the last moments of the battle, the old man hesitated. He admired Ling Yun's perseverance and courage, but at the same time felt sorry for his tired body, as well as some reasons that are now unspeakable. But chess is chess, and there is no room for deliberate concessions and mercy. His chess skills did not allow him to let go of the water, and his heart was desperate for the boy opposite to win.
Failure should be hard to accept, right? Although I haven't seen him all these years, it's not hard to see that he may have experienced too many failures over the years. How he longed for this victory, and was willing to do whatever it took to do so. How could I let his hopes be in vain?
But I can't back down, he fought with all his strength until the last moment, would he want me to deliberately sell a flaw to let him win? Even if he wins like that, won't he see the clues? Can he be truly happy?
Maybe... This is the best ending, sleep child, you are exhausted from this day's struggle, but you have also benefited a lot.
Ling Yun's body exuded a soft and invisible power at this moment, and although there were still a few people watching the battle around him, no one could detect the existence of this power. Under the effect of this force, Ling Yun's body gradually relaxed, and his already tired brain stopped working.
Ling Yun's eyes finally closed, and he lay on his back on the wide chair, and fell asleep peacefully.
It was already dark, and the game of chess was played from early morning to late at night. Many of the shops in the West Market have already closed, while others have only recently opened.
Around the chessboard, the crowd is not crowded in the morning, but it is very crowded in the middle of the night.
Shi Lie yawned loudly, as if he had just slept for a while, and the whole person seemed to be confused. "Is it finally over? Who... Who won? He asked, somewhat delirious.
Ling Yuewei was far less unbearable than him, but his nervousness was indescribable. She stared at the chessboard for a long time, but it was still difficult to tell the winner. "Senior, who won?" She asked humbly.
"This kid does have some talent in chess, if you talk about it now, it should be a win-or-loser. Then my old man will even if he wins half of it. ”
"Half the win?" Yuewei sounded confused.
"If you win half of my old man's house, you will win, and you can take these things." As he spoke, the spirit sword he had with him appeared in his hand, along with a book that glowed with light.
Yuewei reached out and took the spirit sword and the book, and she glanced at the cover of the book. The four characters of "Star Luo Chess Book" are listed on the cover.
"He seems to be very tired of his soul, and when he recovers, I can bring him to see me at any time." The old man turned around, he pushed through the crowd, and with the two boys and girls behind him, he gradually disappeared into the night of the West Market.
