Go: Is the portable old man the nine-time champion?

Chapter 35 It’s yourself who’s trapped you

"I lost……"

Kuroki Ryuji looked at the situation on the chessboard and tremblingly placed two chess pieces on the board.

From the beginning when Tianmo Dahua suffered a great loss to the end when Kuroki Ryuji and Yi Zheng fought for the throne, Kuroki Ryuji felt as if he had almost no chance at all.

If last time Kuroki Ryuji felt that he was unable to display his full strength due to his emotional fluctuations.

But this time it was completely different. Kuroki Ryuji felt that he had exerted his strength, but he was completely suppressed.

In the end, Yi Zheng even gave Kuroki Ryuji some face and did not force himself to eat the big dragon on the left.

However, the real space is obviously insufficient, and Jie on the left is like a landmine that can explode at any time. Kuroki Ryuji has no motivation or reason to persist.

"Concession."

Yi Zheng just nodded. Kuroki Ryuji was unexpectedly a fighting type, but Yi Zheng was also slightly better at fighting, and finally defeated Kuroki Ryuji.

Glancing at Kuroki Ryuji, who was distracted again, Yi Zheng reminded him, "Why don't we just replay the game?"

Hearing this, Kuroki Ryuji suddenly woke up from his trance and said anxiously, "No, no need, let's play another game!"

Kuroki Ryuji didn't believe Yi Zheng could come up with any new changes to the Heavenly Demon Great Transformation. In the next round, in the next round, he would definitely...

"No."

Yi Zheng waved his hand as he looked at Kuroki Ryuji, who was so anxious that he was about to speak his native language. Not to mention that the game of chess had already been played for two hours, the afternoon class was about to begin.

More importantly, Yi Zheng felt that there was no need to spend so much effort on Kuroki Ryuji and accompany him to explore the Great Transformation of the Demon.

Good steel should be used on the blade. You can't always use a butcher knife to kill a chicken.

Kuroki Ryuji seemed to want to say something, but Yi Zheng said calmly, "You still want to use the Heavenly Demon Transformation on me, but if you think so, you will fail no matter how many times you try.

Otherwise, go back and think about it carefully, or try other methods. The power of the Great Demon that I know is always beyond your imagination."

"How is that possible? I don't believe it. Let's play another round, just one more round!"

Upon hearing this, Kuroki Ryuji stood up excitedly and grabbed Yi Zheng's arm tightly when he wanted to leave. He really couldn't accept this fact.

The thing that the Kuroki clan is most proud of has been completely surpassed by a chess player from a foreign country?
"Next time, there will be a chance."

Yi Zheng calmly pushed away Kuroki Ryuji's hand: "It's not me who trapped you, it's you. Maybe one day you'll find that the Great Transformation of the Demons wasn't so right."

"How is that possible! He is the highest, strongest, and most complex Go player!"

When Kuroki Ryuji heard this, he immediately became anxious. Yi Zheng's words seemed to deny the foundation of their family.

Looking at the excited Kuroki Ryuji, Yi Zheng didn't say much.

Kuroki Ryuji attaches great importance to the transformation of the demon, and this transformation is indeed very exquisite.

According to Mr. Ke, although the basic form of their change has been denied, some new changes are still acceptable.

But being able to do it doesn't mean you have to do it. When there are so many other good ways to choose from, how many people would pick up something dangerous and not very useful again?

Just like a steam engine can also be used, but why don’t I use a fuel engine or an electric motor when I have the conditions?

“Maybe only by letting go of something can you go further.”

Yi Zheng patted Kuroki Ryuji's shoulder and walked out of the classroom. At this time, there was basically no one outside the classroom.

The lunch break was over, and most of the students gathered outside were called back to the classroom by the bell.

There are not many students who have the courage to skip classes, let alone students who have the courage to skip classes in front of the dean.

Looking at Yi Zheng pretending to be mysterious, Mr. Ke behind him couldn't help but click his tongue twice: "You are so pretentious, kid!"

"There's nothing I can do." Yi Zheng shook his head when he heard this. Now he felt like a cultivator holding a secret manual of cultivating immortality, looking at those warriors who were still trying to achieve enlightenment through martial arts.

Beichuan Sixth Dan watched Yi Zheng walk out and couldn't help but follow him: "Mr. Yi."

Looking at the Beichuan Sixth Dan who called out to him, Yi Zheng nodded and greeted him, "Director."

"Um, um, I want to ask about the new changes in this Heavenly Demon Transformation. Are you..."

Kitagawa 6th Dan asked cautiously. Theoretically, he didn't believe Yi Zheng could figure it out, but the reality was that Yi Zheng had no other help.

The only possibility is that Yi Zheng had a flash of inspiration? But two games with two different changes, it's impossible for him to have two flashes, right?

"I came up with it myself."

“Ah?! Hiss——”

Although Kitagawa 6th Dan had some guesses when he heard this, he still couldn't help but take a deep breath. He felt that he might have to go to the hospital tomorrow, after all, he inhaled too much cold air today.

But no matter how you think about it, it's still a bit unbelievable.

This was also the answer the two came up with when Yi Zheng asked Mr. Ke how to explain these things.

Yi Zheng’s idea is a very traditional routine, just fictionalizing a teacher. However, it is not really fictional, after all, Mr. Ke really exists, but only Yi Zheng can see him.

However, Mr. Ke thinks this kind of thing is nonsense. Not to mention that it is impossible to reach a high level without high-intensity professional games.

If it was the last century, it would have been fine. Now we have entered the Internet age, and it is easy to find out that a fictional person does not exist.

What will you say then?
Maybe he would be sent for treatment as a mental patient.

So just say that it is something you researched yourself, don’t ask, if you ask, it is just talent.

Talent is something that has no solution. What you may not be able to fully learn in three years of high school may be the result of someone else's research in just one afternoon.

What, you are not convinced?
"Is that all?"

"Not only that, three or three is not enough..."

Hearing this, Beichuan quickly waved his hands. How could the number three be pulled out? This thing was obviously wrong.

However, Beichuan probably also imagined some things, such as Yi Zheng might be obsessed with studying opening patterns and focus on research work every day.

This is why the level has not only not improved but has instead been seriously declining in recent years.

After all, Go is not just about the opening, there is also the middle game and endgame. No matter how well you study the opening, it will be useless if you are not good at the end.

However, because there was an obviously wrong number "Point 33" in the research results, many teachers completely ignored the correct thing that Yi Zheng had researched.

As for Yi Zheng's recent recovery, it may be that he has become slack in his research work and has returned to practicing chess.

Logic!
Thinking of this, Beichuan couldn't help but sigh: "I still have to focus on my own improvement."

The study of patterns cannot be said to be unimportant. If you can construct a new pattern, your name will surely be passed down through the ages. Even if people may not remember the first person of your time, they may still remember you.

But if you want to construct a new pattern, it is impossible without strong strength, which creates a paradox.

Beichuan encouraged Yi Zheng a few more times and then let him go to class. He originally wanted to invite the two people from Dongying to have dinner, but Baoshu, the seventh dan, directly declined.

He actually wanted to eat it, but it was obvious that Kuroki Ryuji had no intention of eating it.

After walking out of the gate of Yunyi Chess Academy with Kuroki Ryuji, Baoshu Seventh Dan looked at the street in front of him and asked cautiously, "Ryuji, do you want to go somewhere else?"

"No, go back."

"But I will definitely come back. I want to prove that the Demonic Transformation is correct!"
