Chapter 48: The First Man in a Hundred Years

After another three days, Inoue Kamezaburo seemed to have recovered his vitality and appeared in the chess hall in good spirits.

This time, there were more people who came to see chess, because the space in the chess hall was limited, so half of the people were blocked outside, in order to satisfy the curiosity of these people, the master Gu Shuiru came forward and deliberately hung up a large board to talk about chess.

Gu Shuiru is a native of Jiashan, Zhejiang, learned chess at the age of nine, was invincible in the township at the age of 16, and defeated Wang Yunfeng, Yi Yaoqing and others in Shangjing at the age of 22 in 1914. In 1917, he studied in Japan, specializing in learning Go, integrating the strengths of Chinese and Japanese Go. He is the master of the national Go player Chen Zude.

At this time, Gu Shuiru was very excited, and said to everyone with a smile: "Although Mr. Qin has only played one game of chess, he has already broken the ground! This is the first time in 30 years that the Chinese have won first in the face of Japanese masters! Mr. Qin is better than me! With my chess strength, I have to be conceded by Mr. Inoue as a second son."

Everyone is fortunate to be able to see the game of ten chess between the two, the first game Mr. Qin won in the middle game, this is the second game, according to the agreement, Mr. Inoue takes black first, for the sake of fairness, black has to stick six eyes, which is considered to be the first draw. If Mr. Qin wins again, the third game will be reversed. ”

The onlookers were excited, and before they knew it, Qin Di had become a national player of Go, representing China to compete with Japanese masters, and winning or losing was not his own business.

The people in the chess room are different from the people outside, they understand the principles of chess, pay more attention to the game itself, and feel that the first game is strange, Mr. Inoue carelessly lost Jingzhou, Qin Di won very lucky with a fresh layout, and there is a high probability that he will lose the second game.

At half past nine in the morning, the two sides officially settled.

In this game, Inoue Kamezaburo deliberately occupied the opposite corner in order to break Qin Di's cosmic flow, so that the big picture could not be completed.

Both sides played 280 moves, made many small pieces, and finally lost 7 moves.

At two o'clock in the afternoon, Inoue Kamezaburo admitted defeat with a red face.

He didn't expect to lose if he broke up the board. If he lost the first game, he can still say that he was careless for a while, then it will be difficult to find an excuse in this game. The two sides are very civilized, there is not much entanglement at all, there are very few dead sons who are raptured, and there are only two or three robberies, mainly because Guan Zi can't post his eyes, what else is there to say?

The people in the chess room were surprised, and the people outside were excited.

"Haha, Mr. Qin won! This is the pride of the Chinese!"

"In the past, Huo Yuanjia went to the ring to challenge the Russian Hercules, and now Mr. Qin plays Go and defeats the masters of the Japanese Kwantung Chess Academy. ”

"Mr. Qin is amazing, he deserves to be the son of the great scientist Ms. Zhu Wan, it's really amazing!"

"The Qin family has one son and two daughters, each of them is amazing!"

"Yes, as the eldest young master of the Qin Mansion, after eating and pondering, he has become a national player of Go!"

"I have to admit that I used to look away, thinking that Qin Dashao didn't learn and didn't know how to do it, but I didn't expect him to hide it deeply, and he didn't make a sound for three years, and he was a blockbuster. ”

Subsequently, these two games of chess were published in the declaration, introducing the agreement between the players of the two sides and Shiban chess, but unfortunately Go is a niche game, and in the era of decline of the Republic of China, many people can't even eat, and there are not many people who are interested in Go.

In the blink of an eye, another three days passed, and a new chess game began.

The number of people who came to observe was doubled, and many people gathered around the outside of the chess hall, looking around.

Gu Shuiru was happy in her heart, and she was more energetic in chess!

He hung the pan high and placed a wooden stool at his feet so that more people could see it.

When he came up, he laughed "haha": "In this game, Mr. Qin will give the lead! Mr. Inoue will not stick to the black! This is a very rare chess game! To be honest, I really dare not think that there will be such a fantastic day! When I went to study in the East, I was always conceded by others, and I didn't even have a chance to score first! Mr. Qin made an exception for the Chinese people! He even gave the first place to the master of the sixth dan, which is a great innovation!"

The people in the audience talked a lot, and they were elated one by one.

"Will Mr. Qin win this game?"

"Hopefully he wins. If you win again, you're going to have to give up in the fourth game, right?"

"If Mr. Inoue loses three sets in a row, will he commit suicide in anger?"

"Probably not, right? If you lose the chess and commit suicide by seppuku, then how can there be a Go master in the world?"

"Oh, I don't know who Mr. Qin learned chess with? How can he be so powerful?

"I don't know, I heard that he was born with cerebral palsy, and now he has sound limbs and is smart, this is really a miracle in the world......"

This time, there were only seven or eight people who stayed in the chess room to watch the game, and the rest of the people were outside listening to Gu Shuiru's explanation. Because the master plays chess, the average person can't understand it, but if someone talks about chess, it will be easier to understand.

Qin Di once again sent down the cosmic flow, and when he came up, he surrounded the big picture.

Inoue Kamezaburo suppressed his anger and cautiously fell.

He went very slowly, from nine o'clock in the morning until dark, when the two sides combined, he made fifty-eight hands!

People on the outside can't enjoy it, but there's no way around it.

The next day, the market opened and went down, down to 130 hands and closed again!

It wasn't until the third day that Inoue Kamezaburo was killed with a piece of chess, and his face showed the color of pig liver, and he had to admit defeat again in the middle game.

That night, he was extremely depressed and really wanted to commit suicide by caesarean section!

But after all, he is a chess player, not a samurai with a sword, and he has no tenacity and cruelty, so it is not easy to die.

This game of chess was published in the declaration, and it only caused quite a stir among the literate people in the upper echelons! The common people at the bottom did not care.

Some people were surprised when they held the newspaper.

"Chinese chess players have been born out of thin air! Chess power is amazing, and the arithmetic is outstanding, comparable to a super-first-class chess player. ”

"Ten games of chess lost three games in a row, and Inoue Kamezaburo was beaten to a downgrade!"

"Since the First Sino-Japanese War, this is the only victory in the Go world between China and Japan! The dragon will not fall, the phoenix will not die, and the national spirit will be invigorated!"

Even Duan Qirui, a Beiyang warlord and president of the Republic of China, sent a congratulatory telegram and published it on the declaration: "Congratulations to the Chinese chess players for winning three consecutive victories in Shiban chess! ”

At this time, Mr. Sun in the south had passed away, and Jiang Zhiqing gradually stepped into the center of power, and he regretted a little that he should not have left three blank signatures for Qin Di in the first place.

When he heard that Qin Di had won three chess, he couldn't help but sigh in his heart: "This kid is a character, no wonder even I fell for him." He thought for a while, and also sent a congratulatory telegram from the south: "A great Go player, the first person in a century!"

These words are so highly evaluated! They have attracted the attention of many people at once!

"No, right? The first person to play Go in a hundred years? Could it be that in the past hundred years, there have been no Go masters?"

Some people who know chess sigh: "That's right! If the country is strong, then the chess strength is strong! Since the Kangqian Dynasty, there has been no more Go master! Mr. Qin is the only person who has given way to the Japanese chess players!"

"Mr. Qin is the bull's ear in today's chess world, and he is a rare person to see in a century!"
