Chapter 33 The Covenant
Professional chess players have to participate in Dashouhe every week. The winning rate in Dashouhe determines whether a person can improve his rank. As the rank increases, there will be more and more competitions, and the same competition fee will also increase. high.
As a beginner shogi player, Asama Kuwahara only needs to participate in the budget competitions of the basic competitions of Ote-Gai, Honinbo, Throne Tournament, Celebrity Tournament, Chess Game, Tianyuan Tournament, and Ten-Dan Tournament.
These games seem to be many, and only after entering the three preliminaries can they enter the round robin. One preliminaries can at most be the next game, and if they lose, they can get out.
Only Dashouhe is a daily promotion game that every chess player needs to participate in.
Kuwahara Asama and Toya Ryo are the best among the newly promoted chess players. They often meet in low-rank round-robin matches.
In just one month, the two met in the first qualifier of Chess Master and the first qualifier of Tianyuan. Chess Saint Saita Yaliang won Banmu, Kuwahara Asama missed the chess master match, and Kuwahara Asama killed him in the subsequent Tianyuan match. With a return to the carbine, he won Ta Yaliang by one and a half eyes, and kicked Ta Yaliang out of the Tianyuan competition.
The chess world gradually became turbulent, and everyone's eyes fell on these two people, and the high-level chess players even felt the sound of footsteps gradually catching up behind them.
At the end of April, the Chess Academy held the Ruoshi Tournament. All chess players below must participate. At the same time, the top 16 students in a group can also participate. After all, this is a competition organized by the Chess Academy to encourage students.
Considering the chess strength of Kuwahara Asama and Toya Ryo, the chess institute deliberately separated the two, and they will not meet until the final.
If on the day of the Lions Tournament, Kuwahara Asama came very early, and recently he has been a bit obsessed with playing chess, because he lost half of the game, and these days when he comes home from school, he will be pressed by Kuwahara Inbo to play chess, and his mental strength will be exhausted. I feel like everything is shaking.
He was sitting on a chair by the wall with his eyes closed, and he was in a trance when he suddenly heard a voice in his ear.
[Ah Guang, Ah Guang!There are so many people here! 】
kindness?
Kuwahara Asama opened his eyes.
【Hmm, I don't know if Taya Ryo is here...】
[If you want to play chess with Ta Ya Ryo, you have to win the first game first! 】
【Got Zuowei! 】
Kuwahara Asama stared at the two people beside the venue, no, it was one person and one ghost, with a stiff expression.
The spirit named Zuo Wei didn't have a trace of evil spirit on him, the spirit body was pure and clean, and it didn't look like a ghost.
He touched the necklace around his neck, told the black bar to stay still, pursed his lips and walked up.
After walking a few steps, Taya Ryo suddenly came out from behind the boy.
"Yo, Asama, you came early."
Kuwahara Asama had no choice but to stop, and exchanged pleasantries with Ryo Toya, "Ah, you too..."
"A round-robin match in Honinbo will start next month, right?" Taya smiled lightly, with a faint gleam in his eyes, "This time we can have a good fight again."
The corner of Kuwahara Asama's mouth twitched, "I won't show mercy, Honinbo Race...cough cough, if I dare to lose, I'll die when I go home."
Ta Yaliang raised his eyebrows, "Ogata is challenging the Honinbo Tournament. If he wins the title this time, if you want to win it in the future, you have to fight Ogata first."
Kuwahara Asama's expression became subtle, he remembered Kuwahara Inbo's plan, and smiled involuntarily.
He said leisurely, "I'll wait."
The two looked at each other with smiles for a while, and the game began.
Kuwahara Asama glanced at the boy before leaving, took note of the opponent's position, and began to play chess quietly.
His opponent is a college student, so his chess skills are naturally not very good.
Kuwahara Asama had something in his mind, so he didn't bother to set up an ambush, and directly used his ultimate move to rampage on the chess board, scattering the opponent's layout in all directions. Afraid of his reputation, he simply surrendered in the middle game.
Kuwahara Asama blinked, looked at his watch, and the game started in 35 minutes.
Seeing the other party's sluggish appearance, Kuwahara Asama suddenly felt that he seemed a little too much.
The other party was a college student, and he was a bit bullying the younger with such a deadly attack.
So he cleaned up the chessboard, and said softly, "Anyway, there is still time, let's play another one?"
The other party looked at him in surprise, and then showed a bright smile, "Okay."
Oh, this student is a girl, the nameplate is called Nase Asuki.
This time he played the guiding chess, skillfully inducing the opponent to make a move. Because his induction was extremely obvious, Nase Asuki played very quickly, and Nase Asuki still lost after the end of the game.
But she is very happy, under the guidance of Kuwahara Asama, she has learned a lot.
"Thanks for the tip! I really appreciate it."
She didn't expect that the seemingly arrogant and indifferent Kuwahara chess player would play guiding chess for him, and he played so well!
"No, that's what I should be."
Kuwahara Asama smiled faintly. The elders taught the younger generation, and gradually drifted away on the road of Go. It is this kind of continuous inheritance that makes Go handed down for a long time, and more people like it.
The girl in front of her has a very rigorous and witty chess style, and occasionally she has a magical touch, but unfortunately she can't handle it well, and the official is a little weak, which makes it easy to lose.
"Practice Guanzi well. If playing chess is compared to fighting, then Guanzi is close combat. Every inch of land needs to be fought with all your strength."
Nase Asuki said embarrassingly, "I always can't figure it out at the end..."
"It's not a matter of calculation." Kuwahara Asama said softly, "It's because your aura is weak."
"Do you like losing chess?"
"Of course I don't like it!"
"Then when you feel that you are bound to lose, don't care about your face. Keep working hard with the idea that you will be disgusted if you lose. Countless small efforts add up to victory."
Nase Asuki's eyes widened slightly, she took a deep breath, and solemnly bowed to Kuwahara Asama, "Thank you for the guidance, I will remember it!"
After finishing his game, Asama Kuwahara looked up, and saw Ryo Taya was still playing chess, and that child...
Well?Ogata Jingji Nine Dans?
The seventh round-robin match of Honinbo is about to begin, why is he running here?
Kuwahara Asama thought for a while and walked over, huh?Ogata Kudan is watching this boy play chess?
As soon as he walked over, he saw the person next to the boy finish playing and leave. At the same time, the spirit who was following the boy said excitedly, 【Ah, there is space here, let's play chess! 】Ogata Jiudan was indifferent, of course, he couldn't hear the voice at all.
Immediately, the spirit body revealed a trace of loneliness and sentimentality, and he said softly, 【How is it, is Xiaoguang doing well?He works very hard!One day, he will stand in front of you, and then...] Kuwahara Asama fell silent.
He thought of Hibiscus.
【How I want to tell my master that I can play chess with him! ! 】
[But I am a monster! !Master, he... can't see it! 】
[I am not reconciled, not reconciled, not reconciled, not reconciled, not reconciled! ! ! ! 】
[Why... I'm not human. 】
【I want to play chess with my master...】
"Do you want to play chess?"
Asama Kuwahara sat down, tilting his head slightly, as if he didn't say anything, but also seemed to be muttering.
The long-haired man in a tall hat and a white safari turned around in surprise, and then he was surprised to find that this boy was smiling at him! !
"Do you want to play chess?"
【Of course I want to! ! 】As soon as the words were spoken, the man looked at the boy in shock, 【You, can you hear me? 】 Kuwahara Asama chuckled, he raised his hand, grabbed a handful of chess pieces and put them on the board, then he didn't move.
Fujiwara Sawei was stunned for three seconds, and then said tentatively, 【Are you scratching? 】 Kuwahara Asama smiled, but didn't speak.
Zuo Wei gritted his teeth, 【Double! 】
Kuwahara Asama spread out his hands and counted, he held white and the opponent held black.
Putting the black and white chess pieces beside him, he twisted a chess piece, as if waiting for the opponent to speak.
Fujiwara was really sure this time, the boy could hear him! !
[Upper right corner!Small eyes! 】
Kuwahara Asama put the black stones in this position with a smile, and at the same time, he picked up the white stones and placed them in the bottom right corner.
Zuo Wei was very happy immediately!Other people can see him, and the other party can play chess with him!
He immediately ran behind Asama Kuwahara, [three out of five! 】
Kuwahara Asama immediately put the sunspots in three and five, and just like that, the other party read a sentence, he put a piece, and the two of them started playing chess just like that.
Kuwahara Asama looked at the chess board, and the opponent's layout was obviously a show strategy style, and... as the chess game deepened, he always felt that this kind of chess style...
Peaceful and distant, wonderful into the subtle.
Honinbo Shusaku!
He thought of Sai on the Internet last summer, and also remembered what Taya Ryo had said to him.
"When I put everything aside and tried my best to catch up with that figure and stood in front of him, I realized that he was just a bubble. The disillusionment and pain are beyond your imagination."
Kuwahara Asama twitched the corner of his mouth, it seemed that his conjecture last year was actually true.
The Sai on the Internet should be this spirit. As for who is playing chess... He glanced at the boy playing chess next to him, and it should be him.
At this moment, Toya Ryo's chess game ended, he got up, then...turned around, didn't even notice Kuwahara Asama, but focused on watching the boy's chess game with a serious expression.
Kuwahara Asama smiled.
He looked up, looked at the spirit beside him, and whispered, "What's your name?"
Zuo Wei was thinking about the chess game, when he heard this sentence suddenly, he reflexively said, 【Zuo Wei, Fujiwara Zuo Wei. 】"...Sai?"
[Yes... hey! ! 】Zuo Wei was stunned, then panicked in his heart, bad, bad! !He actually said it!
Kuwahara Asama took out a pen and paper from his pocket, wrote down his online Go account, and pressed it under the chessboard, "This is my online Go account. I play chess with Taya Ryo on the Internet every night at eight o'clock. Welcome Play together."
Zuo Wei was taken aback.
Kuwahara Asama stood up and disrupted the half-played chess game, "This is not a good place to play chess."
He packed up the chess pieces and left without changing his face.
"I'll wait for you at night."
