Long Hang looked at Yang Xiao with a confused look on his face. This guy was fighting for every inch of territory and wouldn't let anyone take the lead.
Long Hang said helplessly:
"Let's do this, let's guess the chess pieces."
Yang Xiao smiled faintly,
"How to guess?"
"Use your mental power and discard a handful of chess pieces at random. Guess how many there are. If you guess correctly, I lose. If you don't guess correctly, you lose. If you win, black goes first. How about that?"
Yang Xiao pretended to think deeply for a moment and said helplessly:
"All right!"
Long Hang smiled slightly and waved to a nearby staff member.
The staff member walked to Long Hang and bowed:
"Deputy Dean Long, what are your orders?"
"Bring me another empty chess bowl."
"good."
The staff member turned and left, then came back a moment later with a white chess bowl in his hand and placed it on the chessboard in front of Long Hang.
"Deputy Dean Long, the chess bowl you want."
Long Hang nodded and said to Yang Xiao:
"This is an empty chess bowl. Later I will use my mental power to throw some chess pieces from another chess bowl into this chess bowl. As long as the chess pieces fall into this empty chess bowl, I will immediately cover them. Put the lid on and you guess the pieces.”
Yang Xiao nodded.
Long Hang said:
"Okay, I'm ready to start, please look carefully."
Long Hang's consciousness moved slightly, and he saw a white chess piece floating into the air with a clatter in the chess bowl. In the blink of an eye, it fell into the empty chess bowl.
With a "dang" sound, Long Hang quickly closed the lid of the chess bowl and looked at Yang Xiao with a smile.
"You can guess."
The dispute between Long Hang and Yang Xiao over who played chess first has attracted the attention of the surrounding chess players.
Yang Xiao already had a certain reputation in Wu Star. As the leader of Ziyuan Star, especially for killing Long Kui and God of War one after another, many people only heard of Yang Xiao's name but never met him.
After Yang Xiao checked into the Royal Inn, news of participating in the Go competition had spread among everyone, causing many people to want to see Yang Xiao's style.
As the vice president of the Dalong Empire Chess Academy, many people know Long Hang.
At this moment, the contestants at more than a dozen Go tables around them all stopped playing and looked at the two of them.
Long Hangang's movements were so fast that it was difficult for people around him to see clearly. It was indeed a difficult problem to accurately guess how many chess pieces there were.
Everyone looked at Yang Xiao, wondering if Yang Xiao could accurately guess it.
Yang Xiao smiled slightly,
"28."
"you sure?"
Long Hang asked. In fact, even he himself didn't know how many chess pieces were thrown. He just used his mental power to throw a chess piece from the chess bowl, just like grabbing the chess piece with his hands, but specifically he caught it. How many pills there are, I can't count them in my heart.
Because of this, he concluded that Yang Xiao couldn't guess it anyway.
Yang Xiao nodded and said:
"You can count!"
"good."
Long Hang poured out all the chess pieces from the chess bowl and laid them on the chess board. His consciousness moved slightly, and all the chess pieces lined up in a long line.
Long Hang glanced at it and his face froze.
No more, no less, exactly 28 pills.
The people around were also amazed.
"Damn it, you can even guess this, it's amazing!"
"As expected of the leader of Ziyuan Star and the national master of the Flying Leopard Empire, he is really powerful!"
People around him were filled with admiration. Long Hang smiled awkwardly and said:
"I admire you. I didn't expect you to be able to guess this correctly. If you win, you go first."
Long Hang's consciousness moved slightly, and all the white pieces on the chessboard floated into the air and flew into the chess bowl.
Yang Xiao smiled and said:
"I just made a wild guess, but I didn't expect that I guessed it right. It seems that I am lucky today."
After saying that, he took the black chess bowl, opened the lid, and with a slight movement of consciousness, a sunspot floated into the air and landed on the chessboard with a "dang" sound.
Yang Xiao sneered inwardly, playing a guessing game with me? You are still a bit young. I sorted out the books every night at Feibao Academy and learned to count leaves with Mr. Ye. I have long been familiar with this game.
Long Hang naturally didn't expect that the game he thought was very good was exactly Yang Xiao's strength.
Yang Xiao saw how many chess pieces there were in an instant. This mental power was extremely powerful, and Long Hang was shocked in his heart.
But the matter has come to this, no matter what, we have to bite the bullet and go on. As for whether he can use his mental power to kill Yang Xiao during the game of chess, it depends on fate.
Yang Xiao can count the chess pieces, but he may not be able to defeat himself. What if he really guessed?
Long Hang withdrew his mind, his consciousness moved slightly, and a white seed fell.
When the people around them saw this situation, they all bowed their heads and started playing chess. After all, their own chess game was more important.
Yang Xiao and Long Hang each played thirty chess pieces, and fierce competition began to emerge in the chess game.
As the struggle arose, the two men's mental attacks began to become dangerous.
In the use of Go, mental power often changes with the changes in the chess game.
When the game between two people is tied, the mental attack threat to each other is the same. Once one party overwhelms the other, the mental attack threat will suddenly increase several times, or even dozens of times.
Especially when the disadvantaged party is highly nervous, they are more likely to be harmed by the opponent's mental attacks.
Of course, if you voluntarily admit defeat and withdraw from the battlefield of mental power, you will not be injured.
However, in a chess game, the outcome is often not determined by one step. In a completely one-sided chess game, if the losing side feels that it cannot be reversed, it will quickly admit defeat, and the mental damage will be much less.
What you fear most is the kind of opponent that gives you hope and drags you step by step. When you are exhausted, he suddenly gives you a killer move, which catches you off guard. The mental attack instantly breaks through your defenses and makes you His consciousness was severely damaged.
Therefore, if a true master wants to seriously damage your mental strength during the chess game, he will definitely drag you into the quagmire of fighting step by step.
As the vice president of the Dalong Empire Chess Academy, Long Hang had many opportunities to learn from the first grandmaster Chen Rong, and his own chess skills also improved a lot.
In the chess game in front of me, there has been no defeat yet.
Yang Xiao even discovered that Long Hang was deliberately guiding himself into a quagmire. Many times, instead of making the optimal move, he chose a suboptimal move.
At first, Yang Xiao thought that Long Hang was not good enough. However, when Yang Xiao followed to surround and destroy his chess pieces, he discovered that Long Hang could rescue them quickly.
After walking like this several times, Yang Xiao felt that Long Hang was a little weird.
"Since this guy wants to play with me, then I'll play with you and see what you want to do."
After Yang Xiao made up his mind, he followed Long Hang's rhythm and did not use any killing moves. At the critical moment, he even deliberately pretended to be stupid and failed in one or two moves, accompanying Long Hang to continue the entire chess game.
