In 2120, 22-year-old Lu Xingbai graduated with a master's degree and continued to study for a doctorate.
In the autumn of this year, Lu Xingbai won the championship of the Chess King Competition and won the title of contemporary Chinese chess king. Then the competition party invited the Go chess immortal Luo Chong to have an entertainment competition with Lu Xingbai.
The two played chess first. In the first game, Lu Xingbai gave up his chariot and horse, but Go Xian Luo Chong lost. In the second game, Lu Xingbai gave up his chariot and horse, but Luo Chong lost again!
So the chess game ended, and the next game was Go, with Luo Chong letting 7 men play against Lu Xingbai.
However, Lu Xingbai disagreed. He didn't want to play handicap, and wanted the two of them to guess and settle first.
Luo Chong, as a Go master who has won the Lanke Cup twice, categorically refused to guess first with Lu Xing because he felt it would be a loss of face.
Later, after persuasion by the competition team, it was agreed that the two of them would play three games. In the first game, two sons would be given up, and a promotion and relegation mechanism would be adopted. If Lu Xingbai wins a game, he will lose one stone, and if he loses, he will gain one stone.
Luo Chong tried his best to beat Lu Xingbai until he was defeated.
But in the first game, he was overthrown by Lu Xingbai! In the second game, he gave up a piece and lost again! In the third game, Guess got the first draw, and the game was about to begin. Luo Chong panicked! What should he do if he loses? Yuan Qingyue followed Lu Xingbai for interviews throughout the process and sent back a lot of videos and text materials. She also did not expect that Lu Xingbai could also play Go.
"Oh, this person hides very well."
People's strengths need to be discovered little by little. The more she came into contact with Lu Xingbai, the more she liked him, and the love in her heart grew little by little. In fact, the relationship between the two was already very close when they were making pottery. Otherwise, they would not have known each other.
Accepted as a disciple by Chi Yingyue.
The match between Lu Xingbai and Luo Chong did not attract much attention from the majority of chess players at the beginning. They all thought it was just a gimmick, equivalent to a legend in the chess world. However, they did not expect that Lu Xingbai had very high Go strength and actually won two games in a row.
Handicap chess, the last game will be played against the chess immortal.
Many people left messages online.
"Haha, it's so lively! In this last game, if Lu Xingbai wins, Chess Immortal Luo Chong will be killed by a headlong collision!"
"Lu Xingbai has never played Go publicly, but I didn't expect that he is still a master!"
"How could he have such high attainments at such a young age?"
"This is a genius! You need to be famous early. 22 years old is the age when youth is in its prime. If you are unknown at this time, you will not have great fortune in the future."
"Who did he learn chess from? Who is his master?"
"The interview on Luya.com said that he didn't have a master and was all self-taught."
"Nonsense! If you want to become a top expert, how can you not have a master?"
"I think chess can be self-taught. If you don't have a master in Go, it will be too difficult to become a professional master."
These people don't know that Lu Xingbai has been working hard with his grandfather since he was a child. When he got tired, he would watch his grandfather and grandma play chess. Whether it is his grandfather Lu Qingshan or his grandma Mei Lingshang, they are both true chess immortals with a level score of more than 3,000 points. Lu Xingbai's ears and eyes are full of emotions.
He has a deep understanding of chess. The reason why he chose to play chess in college instead of showing off his Go skills is because it is easy for others to guess his background when playing Go. There are only so many top Go players in the world.
By this time in 2120, he was already studying for a doctorate and didn't need to worry so much, so he was willing to use his real skills to play chess with Luo Chong.
The last game attracted much attention, and many media broadcast it live.
After guessing, Luo Chong took the lead with black. In the layout stage, the two sides were roughly divided into two points. In the mid-game battle, Luo Chong successfully transformed the mid-belly appearance into the actual situation and took the advantage. In the complicated battle in the second half of the game, Lu Xingbai succeeded with a series of exquisite tricks.
Play chess, establish the winning momentum in one fell swoop, and ultimately win with two eyes.
After this battle, Lu Xingbai suddenly became a hot celebrity.
Both chess and Go are difficult to master and become a top player. Many people have been playing chess all their lives and have been stuck in the sixth, seventh, eighth and ninth industry, unable to stand out and become a national player. Lu Xingbai, a chess grandmaster, actually
Being so good at Go is unprecedented!
As a result, many reporters and media chased her crazily, and many young girls gathered around
They chased her, but these girls were too late. Standing next to Lu Xingbai was Yuan Qingyue, who was slim and graceful, with red lips and white teeth, and she was charming, and she seemed to be a good shield.
Some self-media began to search for Yuan Qingyue’s background information and revealed that she was the little princess of the Yuan family in Wuxi. Her family had tens of billions of assets. She somehow became a reporter for Luya.com and fell in love with Lu Xingbai during the interview.
.Then use your beauty to make him bow under your pomegranate skirt.
Some people say that although Lu Xingbai is a master in the chess world, he was born in a poor family. He is a poor scholar. His parents are unknown people. He is lucky to meet a lady like Yuan Qingyue.
Neither Lu Xingbai nor Yuan Qingyue commented on these comments online.
Mei Lingshang, who was in Wurou Villa, did see it, but she just smiled. The waves behind the Yangtze River push the waves ahead, and a new generation replaces the old ones. The world's pursuit of Lu Xingbai and Yuan Qingyue is the same as the pursuit of Lu Qingshan and Mei Lingshang back then.
Same.
Mei Lingshang was pleased. She devoted herself to training her two sons to become chess masters. As a result, Lu Lingchen had little interest in playing chess. Lu Lingqi's Go score never exceeded 2750 when he was young, so she felt that she had failed as a mother. She did not expect that her own
The wish was fulfilled by grandson Lu Xingbai!
She read the chess records of Lu Xingbai and Luo Chong. Although Lu Xingbai's chess skills were still a bit naive and far behind hers, if he could train them, he would have the foundation to become a top-notch national player.
Time flies, and two years pass in the blink of an eye, and we arrive in 2122.
This spring, during the Qingming Festival, Huang Yingyi's parents, Jiang Qiuyun's grandfather Huang Hanzhang and grandmother Yuan Cailing, died without any illness and closed their eyes on the same day.
Jiang Qiuyun personally hosted the funeral and issued an obituary: "Grandma and grandpa passed away on the same day, at the age of 165-167."
She opened a cemetery on a hill not far from Wurou Villa.
No outsiders were invited to this loss. All those who came to attend the funeral were family members, including the illegitimate children left by Lu Lingqi.
Many people on the Internet are surprised at the age at which Huang Hanzhang and Yuan Cailing passed away.
"Having lived to such an old age before leaving, I can be considered to have enjoyed happiness."
"This is the first time I have seen someone live over 160 years old. It can be regarded as breaking the Guinness World Record."
"In recent years, more and more people are living longer. I heard that there was an old monk in Dabei Temple who lived to be 148 years old."
"Is it possible that humans can really live forever?"
"Longevity is not the same as immortality. No matter how long you live, you will eventually die."
"Not necessarily. I heard that the life span of a monk is related to his skill. The higher the skill, the longer his life."
