The clouds floated leisurely, and an airplane drew a long trail in the sky, which seemed so peaceful together.

Call......

Suddenly, a gust of wind struck, and the sky changed.

After a thunderclap in the clear sky, the sky was already dark.

At this time, the wind became stronger, and the surrounding trees swayed with the strong wind.

After another thunderclap, a drop of rain fell to the ground with a thud.

Soon, the whole Xijing fell into a fog.

Outside the window, Jiang Fan's heart became extremely quiet, and he picked up a chess piece and carefully placed it in a convenient position.

This is the second move of the tournament and will set the tone for this battle.

"Star position?"

Staring at Jiang Fan's chess pieces, Tian Jian's eyes revealed a trace of weirdness.

Fang Cai guessed that he had the right to take the lead in black by a narrow margin, and the first son chose the star position, and now Jiang Fan's choice is the same as him.

On the 19-way chessboard, the most important thing is these 9 star positions.

After countless years of evolution, the current chessboard has marked the stars.

These 9 star positions are located on the entire chessboard, and their strategic significance is very important.

Especially in the four-pointed star position, a strong chess player can occupy a 16-purpose open space with only a small chess piece, and this realm is by no means indescribable.

That's why there are cosmic currents and Huaxia currents, which occupy the layout of the stars.

Because of the advantage of the first move, Tian Jian now has a choice in front of him, he can choose the commonly used cosmic flow layout, or he can occupy the star position on Jiang Fan's side and make the entire chessboard fall into chaos.

Compared to that kind of melee, the cosmic flow layout is obviously more reasonable.

However, Tian Jian's choice was beyond everyone's expectations, and he chose the corner position on Jiang Fan's side.

"What?"

Jiang Fan's pupils shrank sharply, although he had already imagined Tian Jian very powerfully, but now Tian Jian's state was even stronger.

Because of the advantage of the first move, after choosing this diagonal star layout now, Jiang Fan, as a backhand, must choose the diagonal star layout in order not to fall behind in the mid-term battle.

Of course, some people say that you can choose the carefree corner, or three or three.

In fact, this is not the case, if Jiang Fan is black, he can indeed choose Sanssouci or Sansan, but unfortunately Jiang Fan is white.

has already lost the first move, if you use the worry-free angle that requires two hands to form now, it is estimated that as soon as you put down a small eye, Tian Jian can take advantage of the situation to attack.

In this way, not only did it not form, but it would allow Tian Jian to use his strength to expand the layout.

As I said before, Sansan is a kind of field school, and it can indeed occupy a large field when used in the early days.

But in this diagonal layout, Jiang Fan's grasp of the mid-game is not enough, if there is another three-three, it is equivalent to giving up the mid-game battle, so it is better to admit defeat directly.

"Force me!"

Jiang Fan's body shook when he pinched the chess pieces, and he only felt as if there was an invisible big hand, pressing on his body fiercely, wanting to press him down.

"Damn it!"

What Jiang Fan hates the most is to follow the rhythm of others.

But after holding the white, he fell into Tian Jian's rhythm from the beginning, even if he wanted to change, he had to weigh the consequences.

As long as you enter the quarterfinals, there will be more or less bonuses, maybe not as much as the first place, but after all, there is.

It can be said that this game is about Jiang Xingbo's life, and he can't lose no matter what.

So Jiang Fan knew that this was Tian Jian's trap, so he could only rush in.

Syllable......

Jiang Fan's chess pieces landed on the last corner of the star, and Tian Jian had a smile on the corner of his mouth, which was exactly the rhythm he expected.

Time freezes in an instant.

If someone is around, they will definitely find that the situation on the chessboard is like an ancient seat, and the momentum of the two of them has climbed to the top in an instant, as if something more terrifying is brewing, and it is about to show its hideousness.

……

Just when the battle between Jiang Fan and Tian Jian was about to break out, a man with a gentle smile slowly walked into the Xijing Chess Academy.

Wu Qiming, who had been waiting for a long time, had his eyes lit up, and hurriedly walked over to meet him, holding the man's hand, "You're finally here, okay, okay." ”

Wu Qiming was so excited that he couldn't help himself, the Evening News Cup was just a small amateur competition, although it was a grand event in the entire Qin Province.

But in the whole of China, there is no competition at all, only the stream.

But it's such a small competition, and there is such a big man.

In a few days, I can't say that the Xijing Chess Academy will make headlines in the media, with a big long face.

"How is Old Wu's health recently?"

The gentle man is very polite, and his approachable words make people feel like a spring breeze.

"You're here, everything is fine."

At Wu Qiming's age, there are some physical problems.

When I saw this man, I felt as if I had taken some kind of panacea, and I felt all at once.

"Every time I see the chess academy, I admire Wu Lao from the bottom of my heart."

The gentle man smiled, admiring the old man very much.

The Xijing Chess Academy is not like other chess academies in China with a long heritage, but after this old man retired, in just a few decades, it was not easy to make this chess academy with neither masters in charge nor classic cheats.

When the gentle man was outside the door, he sighed.

The hardware facilities of the Xijing Chess Academy can be ranked in the top 20 in the whole of China, and if it is said that this is just a new chess academy with a history of just a few decades, no one believes it.

I don't know how much thought has been put into this building alone, not to mention the talented chess players that have emerged in the Xijing Chess Academy in recent years, and I don't know how much fresh blood has been sent to the entire Chinese chess world.

Although the strength ranking of the Xijing Chess Academy in the entire China is not very outstanding, it can be seen how powerful Wu Qiming's methods are to get to this day.

"You, don't put a top hat on me. Haha......"

Wu Qiming smiled heartily, the Xijing Chess Academy has consumed most of his life's energy, it can be said that this place is quite his own children, children are promising, and they are naturally proud of their parents.

"The game has already begun?"

After the greetings, the gentle man's tone changed and he turned the conversation to the game.

"It's already started, oh yes, you're here in person this time, what's the instructions from there?"

Wu Qiming has been in the chess world all his life, of course he knows the point, and asked softly.

Speaking of this, the gentle man's eyes froze, inadvertently revealing a trace of momentum, even Wu Qiming was startled, feeling that things might not be normal.

I only heard the gentle man say in a cold voice: "I received an accurate report that the game was mixed with some miscellaneous fish, I came over to take a look." ”

"Trash fish?"

Wu Qiming's eyes were full of shock, the gentle man took action in person, can it still be a "miscellaneous fish"?

Even if it was a miscellaneous fish, it was definitely not something he could deal with, and a trace of worry rose between his eyebrows.

How could the gentle man not know Wu Qiming's worries, patted Wu Qiming's hand, and showed a sunny smile, "Don't worry about Wu Lao, everything has me." ”

"Yes, yes, yes, if you come, I will feel much more at ease, otherwise these demon thieves ......"

Before Wu Qiming finished speaking, the gentle man made a silent motion.

Wu Qiming seemed to realize that he had lost his words, and hurriedly changed his tone, "Then where are you going to start?" Why don't you start with the East Division, Rou'er is there. ”

Unexpectedly, the gentle man shook his head, "It's okay over there for Rou'er, let's start with other divisions first." ”

After that, he seemed to be very familiar with the Xijing Chess Academy, and walked inside by himself.

Wu Qiming's face changed and changed, and he looked at the back of the gentle man, and the worry in his heart deepened, "Oh no, I'm afraid this time it's more complicated than I imagined, damn demon thief." ”
