Go: The live broadcast queen launched a gorgeous rebellion against the dog

...No, it's not luck?
Huang Bo Nan's words stunned all the fermented bean curd! The microphone was completely silent for a while.

Alliance Leader Bian had never expected that his old think tank would suddenly ask such a strange question. After digesting it for several seconds, he squeezed out a voice and said:
"No, no! Uncle Long, are you kidding me?

"We are all professional Go players, and we all know that there are too many unexpected changes in the layout of Go!
"If the flying knife is not in storage, the possibility of using it is very small!

"Didn't the official say a few days ago that Ni Jue's flying knife library is now empty! Rui Zhao must have prepared one or two occasionally and just happened to use them!"

"Of course I won't doubt what the official said!"

Old Longbo first eased the atmosphere and said:

"But... there is one thing we should still be alert to:

"As we all know, Rui Zhao's record against Xiao Lei in slow chess is just as bad as ours, both are terrible. If she wants to keep her title in this celebrity tournament, she should be prepared.

"Of course, as a student of Li Baduan and Ni Jue's junior sister, she also has the skills to prepare. It's normal for her to prepare the flying knife and try to use it!
"But have you ever thought about why Rui Zhao took the initiative to play the Ni Dao Invitation in the last game, showing that he was going to win with the Ni Dao variation, but in the end he suddenly chose the simple variation of sticking in the middle of the game?

"Under normal circumstances, she would be in great danger, so why not use Ni Dao to try her luck?"

"……what?"

This question obviously confused the group of fermented bean curd led by Alliance Leader Bian:

"Or, maybe...she is prepared for this simple branch?"

"Pull him down!"

Huang Bonan immediately denied it:

"If she was really prepared, she wouldn't have been defeated by Xiao Lei's flying knife in the first round!"

"Uh, this..."

Seeing that his only guess was denied by Huang Bonan with sufficient reasons, Lele was stunned on the spot.

Indeed, Lei Qi's flying knife appeared soon after entering this branch. If Rui Zhao had really studied this branch in depth, he would not have been hit by the knife so badly that he was unable to fight back.

But Lele couldn't think of another reasonable reason. In the end, the leader of the Bian Alliance had no idea and could only mutter:
"Then why is that?"

Seeing that everyone seemed to have finally realized something was wrong, Huang Bo Nan immediately slowed down his voice and said:

“Well, maybe everyone has forgotten a little bit.

"In fact, when I saw Rui Zhao on the right side actively inviting Xiao Lei to play Ni Dao the other day, but they suddenly stuck at move 25, I felt a sense of déjà vu. As a result, after the game was over, I finally had some impression. I looked back and found that they had played a similar game before! And that game...

“It was the Challenger Finals of last year’s Masters Tournament!
"In that game, Rui Zhao also invited Xiao Lei to enter the Ni Dao variation first, but then suddenly stopped and chose the simple sticking method, and did not gain any advantage in the Ni Dao variation.

"She finally stabbed Xiao Lei in the lower left corner!"

As soon as Long Bo said this, there was an immediate burst of "eh" in the group, and even a series of whooshing sounds were heard from the microphones, as if many people immediately looked for their phones.

However, the royal think tank will naturally not wait for everyone to confirm it - after all, this is an established fact.

After a short pause, Old Longbo continued:
“To be honest, I’m still not entirely sure why Rui Zhao made this choice last year—perhaps he suddenly realized something was wrong, or maybe Xiao Lei was prepared for Ni Dao’s changes.

"But at least last year's situation can be explained.

"Because we can all guess: Ni Jue's flying knife library is on Rui Zhao!
“Even if he doesn’t use Ni Dao, Rui Zhao has other flying knives that can deal with Lei Qi.

"And this year, this situation has occurred again! Does that mean...

"Rui Zhao, does she still have a library of flying knives?"

"There's also a library of flying knives?!"

Hearing this, the leader's voice instantly rose eight pitches:

"No! Didn't we just say that?

"Didn't Ni Jue use up most of her flying knives last year? And since Ni Jue didn't add any new ones later, where did she get the flying knife library?!"

"That's why I feel like I have to tell you about this."

Long Bo said very seriously:
"One of Rui Zhao's teachers is Li Wangyuan, and she also has a senior brother who is recognized as an expert in flying knives. She can forge knives in batches...

"Is this weird?"

As soon as these words were spoken, there was a moment of silence on the microphone.

It was as if all the divas in the group had heard a horror story that was horrifying enough to silence everyone.

...forging a sword?

Did Zhaojun of that time forge swords in batches?!
This conjecture is not only incredible, it is simply shocking!

"But this, this, this...

"Isn't this possible?!"

Zhuang Zheng, who was the first to react, suddenly spoke out after a moment of silence:
"It takes time to forge a sword! It takes so much time that it will affect my own chess skills!
"That was how Ni Jue was at the beginning - although his flying knife was indeed terrifying, if he didn't use the knife on a daily basis, there would be a gap between him and the top ninth dan!

"But Rui Zhao just defeated Master Liu head-on at the Asian Games and defeated Monkey King Sun at the Changqi Cup. She is recognized as one of the top three players in the world! And now, you tell me she is still forging her own flying knives in large quantities?!
"How can this be!"

However, just as the new captain of the Dongjiang team this season was desperately trying to deny this possibility, Shangguan Sheng's voice suddenly reached everyone's ears:

“Uh…Xiao Zhuang, maybe the situation is not that optimistic.

"I just called Ni Jue and asked him if the flying knife he picked up today was his, and he denied it very firmly.

"And, judging from his tone...

"He seems very, very confident that Rui Zhao will defend his title as a Celebrity!"

"..."

Although there was only a moment of silence during the live broadcast, Old Longbo seemed to have seen the question marks on everyone's foreheads through the network.

Soon, the trembling voice of Alliance Leader Bian came from the microphone group:
"Long Bo, what you mean is...

"We haven't even finished building the flying knife warehouse for the [Second Ruizhao Siege], and now...

"Rui Zhao has her own library of flying knives first?!" "Yes."

Long Bo's answer was very brief, and then Lian Maili fell completely silent again...

...

...

"……You win."

At the same time, in the chess room of Grand Blue Sky Hotel.

After the 234th move, seeing that the loss of points was inevitable, the reigning Chinese chess master no longer insisted and resigned.

"what……

"Thanks for the advice."

Rui Zhao, who had just recovered from the "flow" state, returned the greeting politely. He didn't want to admit defeat, and Lei Qi said directly without any hesitation:
"Then... let's start reviewing!

"The small sharp knife in the 28th move on the right... is it a flying knife you prepared in advance?"

"……Eh?"

The incumbent celebrity was a little confused for a moment when he was asked such a direct question right after the game.

But after thinking for a second, she nodded truthfully:

"Ah."

"That's it...

"When I first reached the middle game, I also felt that it was a bit inappropriate to let you get the ward so easily."

Lei Qi sighed slightly, and then asked:
“But…is there such a big difference between being crowded here and not being crowded?

"After all, you're back on track after making five consecutive moves."

"……some."

Rui Zhao fiddled with the right side of the dial back to the state when it was laid out:
"After connecting back here, on the one hand, the number and position of white chess pieces are much better, completely getting rid of the search and becoming extremely thick; on the other hand, there is always a way to break through at any time.

"The two black pieces in the upper right corner are not stable yet. Once they are broken, the overall situation will become weak instantly, which is very disadvantageous."

"Well, I actually considered this break, but it's okay?"

Lei Qi fiddled with it and said:
"It's better to block the corner on my side. After blocking the white pieces on the corner, the outer perimeter of the black pieces will become thicker, so this breakthrough will naturally not be severe."

"But... this is actually another part of my flying knife."

"The other part?"

Lei Qi was stunned for a moment when he heard this, while Empress Zhao Tian continued to explain to him:
"Whether the black piece on the right can squeeze out first is very important to the overall situation, but judging from the winning rate, if the black piece fails to squeeze out, it may only lose about two points, which is not too fatal.

"The main reason is that Black has a remedy - when White is second, Black can use his strength to get back five pieces. This is a good local move for Black to press here."

"Pressure this?"

Seeing this extremely unexpected move, Lei Qi's eyes widened:

"But the white chess piece is a two-headed dragon! Wouldn't it be almost useless if we suppress this end?!

"No matter how you look at it, it's more efficient to block the white pieces in the corner while also making up for it!"

"Lei Qi, you misjudged this move. This move has a strong sense of taking the initiative.

“The white pieces on the upper right are not as thick as you might think.

"If I lose the advantage here, the black chess can directly fly over the outer piece after strengthening itself and start to compress the white chess's eye position. The white chess corners are not yet fully alive and become the target of attack. The black chess also finds the clue of the subsequent attack.

"So, White roughly needs to make up one move.

"Although it seems that the white pieces in the corners are strengthened and harder to block, the number of points that the black pieces can surround in the center has been reduced in the absence of isolated pieces in the overall situation, so it is not a pity. After taking the initiative, the black pieces will seize the larger area, and the situation is still winnable.

"But if we forcibly block the top, it may seem that the white pieces are suppressed to a low position, but we are actually at a disadvantage. I have no isolated pieces in the whole situation, so I dare to fight very hard and break the situation. In addition, I have a lot of points to begin with, so I am actually in a very advantageous position."

Xiao Lei Jiudan looked at Rui Zhao's changes in front of him with doubt for a long while, and finally sighed:

“…I see!

"Thickness is such a difficult thing for humans to judge!"

At this point, China's reigning chess master once again looked at his beautiful rival of the same age and gave a heartfelt compliment.

But then he seemed to have thought of something and wanted to ask another question, but he swallowed the words back when they came to his lips.

After he had just scored a point with Ni Dao's derivative flying knife in the first round, the opponent immediately responded with another equally tricky flying knife in the second round...

It would be impolite to ask about such a "coincidence".

"that……

"A very beautiful flying knife! Worthy of being made by a famous person!"

"……ah!

"Thank you, thank you!"

Although it can be seen that Xiaohanhan was a little embarrassed by such direct praise, Zhaojun couldn't help but smile like a spring flower, and it can be seen that she was really happy:
"Although I am still far from what Senior Brother Ni was at the time, I am also trying my best to show the demeanor of a senior brother!"

“Don’t be so modest!
"Although I have never tasted Ni Jiuduan's flying knife, I feel that it should be no more than this!"

Lei Qi exclaimed sincerely.

"Then I will come back tomorrow to ask for your advice, Mr. Rui."

"Ah... didn't we agree before that we wouldn't call each other by our titles?"

Rui Zhao complained quietly, but it was obvious that he really enjoyed this title, so he responded playfully:
"I am also looking forward to tomorrow's decisive game, Master Lei." (End of this chapter)
