In addition to Siming's attempt to modernize the layout of ancient chess in the game against Gao Yongxia, Kishitani, Shenjin and others also tried to use the chess records they borrowed from Siming.Chinese chess players are even more popular.

The ancient Chinese notation really unveiled her mystery in this exchange competition.The top masters of the Three Kingdoms gathered together and began to analyze ancient chess records from their own perspectives.

The day before the end of the exchange match, what appeared on the screen in the hall was one of Danghu's ten innings.Danghu Ten Games is a ten-game match between Chinese Go players Fan Xiping and Shi Xiangxia in Danghu, Zhejiang Province in the fourth year of Qianlong.

These ten games represented the highest level of Chinese Go at that time.Fan Xiping's chess is superb, flexible and changeable, and moves very fast. To a certain extent, it represents a sensory chess player; while Shi Xiangxia's chess is precise in calculation and cautious in chess, which can be said to be a representative of the long-term chess player. .

Although many rules of Chinese Go at that time were different from modern rules, in the explanations of Wang Xing and Taya Yukihiro, everyone can still see the subtlety of hand-to-hand combat and the thrilling exchanges between the two sides.

"The chess record of this game, attacking players can study this piece carefully." Wang Xing said while circled a range on the game record, "The fight in this section is very risky, but it is also very delicate. There are many moves, even if Many of our modern top chess players may not feel like trying it. However, defensive chess players can study this piece more. I personally think that the defensive counterattack of this piece of white chess is very brilliant."

At the end of the exchange match, Gao Yongxia left with a letter of challenge against Siming; while most chess players left Japan with confusion and excitement about ancient chess records.

Siming felt that the trend of learning ancient chess records would sooner or later sweep the Go world of the Three Kingdoms.

After resting for a few days, Siming immediately joined the match between Throne and Tian Yuan.Kuwahara Shin was a little worried about his grandson's health, and wanted to make the child give up.But seeing Siming's serious expression, he still didn't speak after thinking about it.

Every time there is a competition, Siming will go to the chess academy with a lunch bag.After all, the spleen and stomach are weak now, so I can't eat fast food ordered from outside.

"Your treatment is really unique." He Gu looked enviously at Siming taking out the nutritious porridge stewed with Kanako from his lunch bag.

"If you are also injured and participate in the competition, your family will prepare for it." Siming ate porridge in small bites. Fortunately, he is not a person who likes food.Otherwise, today's life can be described as miserable.Every day is porridge, nutritious soup, and it has no taste.No matter how good Kanako's craftsmanship is, it's easy to get tired of it.

"Forget it." Thinking of Siming lying on the bed unconsciously before, He Gu Bujue shivered, "How are you today? Your opponent... seems to be Ou Zhi?"

"En." Siming nodded, "I feel okay, there shouldn't be any major problems." This was the first time he met Ochi after he came back from China. It was quite easy for Siming.

In the third round, Siming met his teacher Ogata Seiji again, and this time he unfortunately fell into the opponent's hands.At the end of the game, Ogata didn't say anything about Siming's chess situation. He just stared at Siming thoughtfully for a while, then patted him on the shoulder, "You should rest and recuperate." Siming smiled wryly. For a moment, it is true that he is obviously a bit powerless in the chess game that will be played later today.I still can't keep up physically.

However, Tian Yuan and Siming fought all the way to the end and won the right to challenge. They played five consecutive games with Morishita, and lost in the last game with two eyes and a half.

It's really pressing every step of the way.The Tianyuan Tournament is already the last Go tournament of the year, and in the middle of winter in the twelfth lunar month, Morishita still feels his entire back is wet with sweat.

Hiji returned to Japan before the end of the Tianyuan competition, and consciously took on the task of picking up Siming.

"How do you feel today?" Riji leaned over to fasten Siming's seat belt, wiped the sweat off Siming's forehead with a handkerchief, and started the car.

"Fortunately, Mr. Morishita is really good, and we still lost to him in the end." Siming leaned back slightly annoyed. "It seems that poor physical strength still has some influence on the chess game." Today's last game is the same as the previous game with Ogata in the throne battle. The more you go, the more you feel a little confused, and the poor physical strength makes you unable to concentrate. Finally lost the game.

"It's okay, just take it easy. Don't work too hard next year." Riji turned his head to comfort Siming, "After coming back this time, I feel that Grandpa Shen's health is not as good as before. Why don't you spend more time on it?" Stay with him, just to recuperate your body. You are still young, and you still have many years to fight in the Go world."

"kindness."

After Siming was discharged from the hospital, Kuwahara Shin suffered a bout of illness, and after the beginning of winter, he fell ill several times in succession. When he was in college in China, Grandpa Han also asked him to take the pulse, saying that the early losses had not been fully recuperated.I think it was the impact of the sudden death of my parents back then.Kuang Yuanren said that when the bad news came, his grandfather vomited blood and passed out immediately. He was admitted to the hospital and was not released until he recognized Siming.This body is also much worse than that of the old people of the same age.This time when Siming had an accident, the old man held on and did not fall down. It was not easy.

"Xiao Ruo, I'm going to see grandpa over there tomorrow. It's best to let them live in Tokyo. It's close enough for me to take care of them."

"Just live at home. Grandpa happens to have two more chess friends. There is an aunt at home to take care of you, so you can rest assured when you go out to compete." Hiji said with a smile. Grandpa and mom and dad mentioned this several times, but Grandpa Kuwahara didn't too agree.Probably for people of certain status, borrowing and living in other people's homes is always an ugly thing.

"Then you have to ask grandpa, I don't know if he will agree." Siming shook his head distressed.The two chatted all the way back home.

Before the new year, probably because of the freezing weather, Kuwahara Shin was admitted to the hospital again.Considering the convenience of seeing a doctor and taking care of his grandson nearby, Hitoshi Kuwahara finally agreed to move to Tokyo, but instead of staying at Hiyoshi's house, he entrusted Hikichi Kosuke to rent a yard near Hiyoshi's house.

Without the competition, Siming had a lot of time to spend with his family when he went out and occasionally played against Hong Xiuying and others on the Internet.In the past few days, Kanako is often sent to the hospital with soup.

"Grandpa, this is the soup made by Kanako. Grandpa Han will come over tomorrow, just let him take a look at it for you." Siming motioned Kanako to take out the insulated lunch box.After graduating from university, Kanako stayed in the Shibazaki clubhouse, serving some small meals every day, and occasionally she made nutritious soup.The working hours are relatively free. This time the old man fell ill, so he followed Siming to the hospital to take care of Kuwahara Shen.

"Okay." Kuwahara Shin was supported by his grandson to sit up, and tremblingly took the spoon beside him.

Seeing Grandpa's slightly difficult movements, Siming bit his nose, snatched the spoon from the old man's hand, and fed it to him little by little.

Han Kangshi arrived in Japan on the second day. Don't look at the old man in his 80s, he looks younger than Kuwahara Shin, who is in his early [-]s.After taking his pulse, he didn't say much, only comforted Kuwahara Shin a few words, the two of them chatted for a while, seeing Kuwahara Shin half-closed his eyes before leaving the ward.

"Guangyi, your grandfather suffered too much losses in the early years and didn't manage them well. Now he's running out of fuel." Han Kangshi shook his head, sighed, and then told Siming, "I'll write a few more recipes for nutritious and medicinal diet. Son, remember to change it for your grandpa every day, and don’t let your grandpa worry too much. Don’t let this kind of thing happen again. Your grandpa is getting old, so don’t be surprised. It can drag on for a year and a half."

"Eh, I remembered."

Just after the new year, Hiji left.After the child left, Ridai wiped his tears as usual. Even though he knew that the child was working hard, being a parent still felt a little distressed.Every year there is just that little holiday, and there are competitions flying around the world throughout the year. Fortunately, Riji is doing well now and ranks relatively high, otherwise it will only be more tiring.

In order to take good care of his grandfather, Siming gave up a lot of work outside, except for the seven championships, he didn't participate in the games that basically left Tokyo.International competitions are even more indifferent.

"Going to Korea this time, Gao Yongxia asked about you again." Siming sat in the chess academy and played against Jinto to pass the time before the seminar started.

"The past two years have been difficult. Grandpa..." Siming stared at the chessboard for a while. Grandpa's body is useless in terms of serious problems, but most of the organs are failing. In the words of traditional Chinese medicine, it is exhausted. Dry, like an old machine in a factory that is about to expire, it won't work anymore.Now I don't even have the strength to get out of bed myself.My own strength is weak, so I can only lift my grandfather out of bed when Ah Cong is free, and push him to the garden to get some fresh air.

"How is Mr. Kuwahara?"

"When I get older, let's raise it like that. When my parents passed away in the early years, I was greatly stimulated and didn't take care of it. Now I have to raise it slowly. It can be delayed for a year."

"Oh... you have been really... these two years..." Shinto shook his head slightly, "Morishita-sensei and the others are coming soon, I'll go first."

Siming nodded slightly.Shinto turned around and approached Taya's ear, whispered a few words, Taya nodded with a smile, the two kissed lightly, and Shinto left.

Seeing the intimate movements of the two, Siming couldn't help but think of Riji who is far away in the United States.Hiyoshi performed very well last year. This year at the Australian Open, he reached the final again. Although it was a pity that he lost to Echizen again in the end, his name is now well-known in the tennis world.

If he had summoned up the courage to confess his feelings to Xiaoruo earlier, the two of them could now be as close and warm in front of people as Taya-senpai and Shinto-senpai?

Under the care of his grandson and family members, Kuwahara Shin was ill for two years, and one day after his 75th birthday, he passed away peacefully in his sleep.

In the past few years, Siming has won the titles of Tianyuan, Qisheng, etc., and has been taken away several times.Hiji announced his retirement after winning the French Open and Wimbledon and came back to continue his studies.Tennis is his hobby, and it is enough to work hard for this interest when he was young.

Regarding the matter of Siming and Riji, I don't know if the two old people greeted each other or what.When the two were intimate once, Li Dai broke through. At that time, Li Dai was surprised for a while, but he seemed to accept it after a while.

"Our family watched Guangyi grow up, so let's be more than one son. It's nothing." Ridai comforted himself and her husband in this way.

Ever since, the relationship between the two is considered semi-public.They were relieved to be accepted by their family members.

It's the cherry blossom season again, and Hitoshi Kuwahara, who was happy to join in the fun with the young people a few years ago, doesn't have the energy this year.After his younger brother passed away, he became less and less fond of going out.The small courtyard near Hiyoshi's house was finally bought.

A rocking chair was placed in the promenade by the courtyard, lying on the rocking chair, the spring sun shone warmly on the body, flickering, quite comfortable.

"Kuichi, this year's Honinbo, let's try to win it." Looking sideways at Siming, who was compiling notes, the number of matches between Kuwahara and his grandson has gradually decreased in recent years, and now Siming often writes scores by himself here in Kuwahara , I only ask him when I have new ideas.

"Well, grandpa, I will try my best." In the past few years, there have been many matches with Jinto, and there must have been wins and losses.The more I calmed down, the more I felt that the fear at the beginning was gone.Shindo became famous early, but to himself, he is also a top chess player. Isn't he such an image in the eyes of others now?Why not challenge each other?

Although he thought so in his heart, Siming was suddenly very excited when he actually sat opposite Jin Teng for the first round of the challenge.Finally, he was able to get back his former title as Grandpa.

This time the challenge was arranged between Youxuan.

The tranquility of the room was broken by the following staff, but these did not affect the two chess players who were brewing emotions at all.

Shinto looked up and looked at the opposite side. In the past few years, he has seen Chiba like himself, from a junior high school student to a professional player, and slowly from a low-level chess player to a high-ranking player. That title, ranks among the top ranks. During the period, the two also played against each other many times. However, they still couldn't help being nervous when they met him in the title match in Honinbo today.

After a while, under the reminder of the staff, the competition officially started.

The layout at the beginning made people watching the battle feel very familiar.

"This is……"

"When Aguang and Qianye met for the first time, it was like this layout." Taya stared at the screen and explained, "It's just that Qianye at this time is different from that at that time."

Yes, although the initial arrangement seemed to be catering to the other party's intentions, the ensuing response clearly showed Siming's skills over the past few years.It seems to be more atmospheric and natural than those who entered the profession at the beginning.

The two came and went, and the first six rounds were tied.

Before the start of the seventh round, the outside world was already brightly lit, but the few people who stayed in the review room would rather hold the instant noodle boxes than move their nests.Even Kuwahara Jin, who hadn't been out for a long time, stood in front of the screen holding a teacup.

At this moment, the chess game was in the middle of the game, and it was still the same as the previous games, the two of them were biting very tightly.It seems that both sides can guess the other's way, and they are trying to find another way.

Siming stared at the chessboard, but he was thinking about the game record of another game in his mind. It seemed to be the previous game between his father and Wang Xing. That game seemed to be a draw, but Siming remembered that there seemed to be a chess game in it. Chess piece, my father hesitated a bit when he recorded it, as if he clicked it in another place, it was probably a guess...

Siming hesitated for a while, and put the chess piece in a place that his father once circled with common sense.After the chess piece fell, Siming suddenly discovered that a passage had suddenly opened up in the once congested world, and the door to victory in this game of chess seemed to have been opened to him.

Shindo looked suspiciously at the black piece that Siming had dropped just now. This move was just made by the opponent, and it was completely different from his own guess. The idea continues.

Dozens of moves went back and forth in a row, and the chess game came to an end.

"I lost."

A smile gradually appeared on Siming's face. His father's guess was correct. That chess move may seem inconspicuous, but it is like a life gate in the gossip formation. If you march from there, you will surely be able to make a breakthrough.

【Asi, you got Honinbo! 】The young man in Qianye was already shouting excitedly, floating back and forth between the mysterious places while shouting.

Walking out of the chess room, Siming saw Kuwahara Ren standing in the corridor, and couldn't help running forward, "Grandpa, I did it."

"Beep beep..."

The alarm clock next to the pillow rang, and a hand was stretched out on the bed to fumble to turn off the alarm clock. After a while, Siming sat up with the thin quilt in his arms.

Stretching, he got out of bed and walked to the window, opened the curtains slightly, and looked at Hiji who was punching in the yard.

As if he had a tacit understanding, Hiji turned around and looked at his boss Ming, with a smile on his resolute face before continuing his actions.

After getting Honinbo, the life is not different. After the excitement, it is just to continue the old life, research, competition, companionship... This stolen life is peaceful and peaceful, just like the expectation of the previous life.

Behind Siming, the young man from Chiba looked at the two with his hands clasped. He didn't know how long he and Asi could live together, but he really liked this kind of battle that could roam the world in a square inch, and liked this kind of integration in daily life. The warmth here.

Dad, Mom, how are you doing in heaven? Asi and I are very happy.
