Lu Fan's words surprised everyone.
People who don't understand Go may think that this kid is too arrogant. He even said that he can win without looking. Does this mean he treats his opponent as a three-year-old child?
People who know Go are even more frightened.
In Go, or in the so-called intellectual sport, there is a concept of blind typing.
The so-called blind typing is to close your eyes and not look at the chess game, and play against your opponent through the memory in your mind.
To do this, you must first have a very strong memory.
However, in fact, real Go masters all have very strong memories. As long as they play a game once, they can basically play it again without looking at the game record.
Therefore, strong memory is not the most critical point.
The most critical point is that the player's chess skills when playing blindly must far exceed those of his opponent.
The so-called blind typing is actually a type of guided chess, which is similar in nature to handicap chess, but with a different twist.
In a game between masters, not a single piece can go wrong. Therefore, they cannot give up even one piece, and they must always keep an eye on the chessboard and study every routine carefully.
However, in a game between masters and weaklings, the requirements do not need to be so high.
Even if the masters make a mistake or make some mistakes, they can still make up for it in time. The tricks they use are not something that the weak can resist.
Therefore, whether it is a handicap or a blind hit, the master can easily pick it up and use it at will in the game with the weak.
At this time, Lu Fan said that he could abuse this old man without looking at the chessboard. Obviously, he thought that his level was much higher than that of his opponent.
This made Lao Mao very angry.
"Boy, I don't know where you get the confidence to be so arrogant! Come on, let me see how many tricks you have!"
Old Man Mao didn't want to talk nonsense, so he directly picked up a black chess piece and placed it on the chessboard.
This means that the chess game is about to begin.
The old man looked very angry, but his actions showed that he had not lost his mind due to anger.
On the contrary, he remains cunning.
Normally, if you want to start playing chess, you must at least make a guess first, or give the rules first.
Even if you are playing blind chess, you have to agree in advance.
But when Old Man Mao did this, his chess was moved first, and the rest was ignored.
In other words, whether Lu Fan typed blindly or not, that was his own business.
But the problem is, you've already shouted that you want to fight blindly, so you can't change it now, right?
Moreover, even if you want to type blindly, since you didn’t agree with me, it doesn’t count as me taking advantage of you.
Old Man Mao's seemingly angry move did indeed have many hidden meanings.
Of course, the most important thing is that with this step, he got the upper hand.
In Go, there is a certain advantage in moving first with the black stone.
Therefore, modern Go requires that the first player must stay close to the goal at the end of the game, which is considered to be voluntarily giving up this advantage.
However, even so, in regular games with statistics, the winning rate of the side with black first is greater.
After all, gaining the upper hand means taking the initiative and can deploy according to your own tactics.
The backhand side can only follow the opponent's rhythm and is always passive, making it difficult to come back.
Therefore, Old Man Mao took the opportunity to grab this advantage first, and the remaining ambiguous advantages were actually not that important to him.
Others might not be able to see what he was thinking, but the other two old men at the same table could see it clearly.
Of course, even if they saw it, they wouldn't tell it. After all, they were on the same side as Old Man Mao, so they couldn't help their opponents.
Now, everyone is staring at Lu Fan to see how this young boy plans to deal with it.
Facing everyone's looks, Lu Fan stood up calmly, walked a few steps to the side, pulled a stool, and sat down with his back to the chessboard.
"I'll play Tianyuan!"
He stated where he was going to be.
At the same time, he also proved that he really wanted to play a game of blind chess with an upper hand attitude.
It's just that this kid is a little too arrogant! Those present were not only the three old men, but also the woman named Mei and Luo Heng, who all knew something about Go.
They all know that there is almost no one who starts at Tianyuan's position.
Tianyuan is the middle point on the Go board.
This point is almost never taken by anyone at the beginning.
There is a jingle in Go called Golden Horn Silver Border Grass Belly, mainly to emphasize the importance of horns.
Because the angle is very important, most of the starting moves in Go are made at the star position or the small eye, in order to be able to advantageously occupy the angle.
Only in some informal games, sometimes, perhaps for entertainment, Black will choose to start with Tianyuan, and then imitate the opponent's routine to disgust others.
However, this is only true for Black.
If White does this, there is only one possibility.
That is, he thinks that his level is far superior to that of his opponents and he is full of self-confidence. Even if he moves casually, there will be no problem. That is why he plays in what can be called the most worthless position at the beginning. .
Of course, the person who does this is very confident, but his opponent is not so happy.
Old Man Mao is very unhappy now.
He felt extremely insulted.
Oh shit! Forget it if you play blindly. If you want to come up, you will make a useless move.
Do you look down on me so much?
"Xiaomei, let him go!"
Old Man Mao shouted.
Because Lu Fan played blindly with his back to the chessboard, someone had to play the chess moves he told him on the chessboard.
There had been no one to do this job before, so Old Man Mao simply assigned it himself.
Xiaomei is Old Man Jiang's assistant. She usually follows Old Man Jiang and often watches them play chess. At least she knows the positions of the chess moves very well. It should be no problem to let her help that boy who doesn't know how high the sky is to set up chess.
As long as someone sets the chessboard for that kid, Old Man Mao can continue and kill him without leaving a trace! The woman surnamed Mei glanced at Mr. Jiang and saw the latter nodded, so she stepped forward, picked up a white piece, and placed it in the middle of the chessboard.
"Snapped!"
As soon as the white piece was put down, Old Man Mao immediately took another black piece.
"Tell him my chess moves!"
After placing the chess pieces, he said to the woman named Mei.
"Nineteen Road 13."
The woman reports honestly.
The expression on Old Man Mao's face was very proud, as if the move he just made was a wonderful move.
But Mr. Jiang and another old man on the side had some disdain on their faces.
