Grasping Evil Chapter 1275: Victory is good, but defeat is good
After a brief exchange, the real Stone Ghost began to arrange accommodation for Ning Fan and Bai Ling.
It's been have several months since the official start of the Arctic Dao Fruit conference, so it is so, the outside field of the conference is already crowded with people, and the grand occasion is unprecedented.
The field only provides 10,000 Immortal Cave rooms for uninvited people. However, there are more than 10,000 people in cultivator. Most of them have not received the Immortal Cave residence qualification and have to go down the mountain to find another place to live.
The real Stone Ghost is also a Nine Tribulations Immortal Emperor. Since it is impossible that he can't even get it from Immortal Cave, he reserved Immortal Cave for Ning Fan (Zhang Dao).
In this way, it saves Ning Fan a lot of things.
"It's getting late today, so don't disturb Brother Zhang's rest. If you have free time tomorrow, I hope Brother Zhang will come to the mansion for a chat and tell me something important." Shi Guizhen sincerely requested.
…
In the dead of night, Ning Fan crossed his knees in the guest house Immortal Cave, pondering something.
In this piece of Trial time and space, the person he plays, named Zhang Dao, is close friends with the real stone ghost. After receiving a letter from the other party, he came from thousands of miles to make an appointment.
The specific reason why the Stone Ghost invited Zhang Dao is unknown. It was only because the Immortal Emperor letter that Ning Fan found at the time was too dilapidated, and the contents were not very clear.
[Zhang Dao, my brother, the words are like a face... the northern barbarian country is in a hurry... I specially invite Dao Brother to come... the Arctic Dao Fruit conference... borrowing the prestige of Drifting Kun Saint Sect's disciples... presiding over justice... Zi Wei Demon Monarch's doom... nine days later... copper boats meet... brother, Respect the rock ghost. ]
In this piece of Trial time and space, why is the Beiman Kingdom in a hurry?
What is the doom of Zi Wei Demon Monarch?
also What is the justice that the stone ghost real person wants to host?
If we can figure this out, the next plot development of regarding Saint Child Trial may be helpful and unknown.
"Speaking of which, my current Trial score is still seven 16 stars, and it has been a while since without/has not has increased..."
Ning Fan was thinking when he heard a knock on the door.
It's Bai Ling, who lives next door, visiting late at night.
If other women knocked on Ning Fan's door in the middle of the night, they would have some enticing style.
Bai Ling's style of painting is completely different. This woman came to visit late at night, and she wanted to play chess with Ning Fan.
【Senior Brother, it’s been a long time since without/has not played. I have nothing to do at the moment. Could you please play a few games with me? 】 Bai Ling pleaded in his heart.
"naturally can. Still let you have four sons?" Ning Fan.
【Hmm. Still four! Thank you Senior Brother for pointing it out! 】 Bai Ling said happily.
After that...
Ning Fan heard the sound of Trial score increasing after a long time.
[Event 5 16: Give four sons to guide chess to win. Get points, one star. Current score, seven 17 stars. ]
【Event 5 17: Granting Four Sons...】
【Event fifty-eight...】
[Event five 19...current score, eighty stars. ]
All night, four games of chess, every guide game, Bai Ling was irretrievably defeated.
Even though he had already lost to Ning Fan many times, after losing four games in a row, Bai Ling still couldn't control his emotions and wanted to cry.
"I'm sorry, you used all your strength unknowingly. Your chess skills have grown a lot during this period of time. If you give four sons, it's already to the point where I have to take it seriously." Ning Fan said apologetically and comforted .
He by no means wants to make Bai Ling cry, but he is not Devil, but has without/has not strange hobbies.
But it is also impossible to let him release water on Bai Ling and deliberately lose to the opponent. It wasn't that Ning Fan cared about winning or losing. If he deliberately let go of water, with Bai Ling's intelligence, he would definitely be able to see the clues. regarding For a real chess player, this kind of behavior is blasphemous and humiliating, and should not be done.
【Huh? I'm become stronger? But why can't I feel it myself, Senior Brother must be making me happy. 】 Although Bai Ling didn't believe it, she still held back her tears and her emotions.
【Please also ask Senior Brother for another round! In this game, I will definitely... definitely not lose again! 】The little girl is very competitive. She deserves to be a chess player.
"Can't go any further."
【Why? It's still early, let's go to the next game! Just one game! Really the last game! ]
"...It's already three poles in the sun, do you have any misunderstanding of the word 'it's too early'? I have an appointment with the real stone ghost, and I have to visit today, so it's hard to refuse. It's almost time to go out now, so Just go down here... and your mind loss is almost at its limit, it's time to rest."
【Huh? Is it so late? I didn't pay attention to the time at all...]
Bai Ling knew that Ning Fan had something to do, so he didn't dare to continue make trouble and interrupt. Moreover, she and Ning Fan played four games in a row, and it was true that the mental force was greatly depleted. At this moment, when she realized the passage of time, she felt a sudden shake.
Actually passed out.
This is why mind's loss is on the verge of reaching its limit, and it is also the reason why Ning Fan refuses to play 5th with her.
So the fainted Bai Ling was sent back to the room.
And without/has not do any superfluous molestation.
But I still heard the long-lost voice of Ant Lord.
"Enough! He really is a real man, iron man! Just for a little Trial score, he actually made a little girl dizzy! this Palace Master is impressed by how mad you are!" Ant Lord Yin-Yang said strangely.
"I don't think there's anything wrong with without/has not. Women will only affect the speed of my cultivator's drawing swords. How can the Trial score be important? At least this time, Ning Shangxian has left a few pieces of live chess for others. It's a thousand times more polite than before!" Duo Wen's voice also sounded.
In that tone, at first glance, it sounds like he is helping Ning Fan to defend himself, but without/has not completely defends it.
There is also a subtle sense of Yin-Yang weirdness.
“…The reason why I tried my best to take action was not for the Trial score, but because I couldn’t bear to hurt the dignity of the opponent’s chess player.” Ning Fan explained.
But unfortunately, his explanations, Ant Lord and more news by no means believe.
Even too lazy to explain.
"Speaking of which, why did the two of you keep silent when you met that fried chestnut Senior? Now you have the time to make fun of me." Ning Fan asked.
"Fried chestnut Senior? What fried chestnut Senior?" memory of Ant Lord without/has not also snooped on and couldn't share any memory of Ning Fan on the matter, so I don't know why.
"I don't understand what you're talking about." memory, who has heard nothing about it.
All traces have been wiped off by the old man Chao Li raised his hand. As strong as Ant Lord, it seems that they can't fight against that kind of power.
Only Ning Fan still remembers the previous scenes...
"Forget it if you don't understand." Ning Fan didn't say much about it.
…
This is 3rd day Ning Fan came to Beiman Kingdom.
Today's Arctic Mountains, the snow has stopped for a long time, revealing a clear sky.
Ning Fan came as promised to visit the real stone ghost.
Outside the Immortal Cave of the real stone ghost, two children were shoveling snow. When they saw a visitor, they stopped their movements and bowed respectfully to Ning Fan.
And then.
"My teacher is currently waiting for medium rank in Xueting, please come with me for Senior."
Ning Fan followed Tong Er into the courtyard, and after a while, he walked outside a snow pavilion.
The real stone ghost in the snow pavilion knew that Ning Fan was here, and Hehe greeted him with a smile, but he looked at Ning Fan's look, which seemed to be a little different from yesterday. Explore.
"Brother Zhang really believes in people. He arrived so early. Children, quickly cook a pot of Shi's best tea and fetch two of Shi's new Dao Fruit."
After the Stone Ghost Master gave Tong Er some instructions, he invited Ning Fan into the snow pavilion.
On the stone table in the pavilion, an incense burner is lit, and there is a chessboard, chessboard do not know what material it is, exudes a faint azure light, it seems to be of good quality.
When Ning Fan gaze swept over chessboard, he faintly felt that the azure light on chessboard was somewhat similar to the Heaven and Mortal green glow in his eyes, so he couldn't help but wonder.
As soon as Ning Fan entered the snow pavilion, gaze landed directly on top of chessboard, and the real Stone Ghost smiled, "If Brother Zhang likes it, this chessboard will be given to Brother Zhang, but before that, Brother Zhang still needs to get along with him. How about I use this chessboard against the last game?"
Ning Fan was slightly surprised and looked at the real Stone Ghost. He didn't seem to expect that this person was also a Chess Madman, and he would play chess as soon as they met.
But also without/has not grounds for rejection.
Let's go.
So the two of them sat on both sides.
As soon as he sat in front of chessboard, the real stone ghost look suddenly became serious, and his whole body showed a fierce momentum.
That kind of momentum is different from the coercion accumulated by cultivation base Realm, but a special Qi Aura that belongs to chess player.
When Ning Fan and Bai Ling play chess, they can also feel the serious Bai Ling, revealing such aura, but Bai Ling's aura, by no means is as powerful as the real stone ghost.
"This person may be a Expert..." Thinking of this, Ning Fan's look also revealed a bit of seriousness, as if infected by the atmosphere.
Ning Fan holds the white, the stone ghost holds the black, this is the request of the stone ghost.
Real World has a vast territory, Immortal Country is numerous, different countries, Inheritance have different cultures, and also derived many different Go rules.
Some countries are white first and some are black first. In some countries, the system of retaliating chess is popular, while others prefer to guess first. In the stone ghost's hometown, it is the black first, and those who hold the black are mostly the first.
Obviously, the real Stone Ghost thinks that his chess skills are not as good as Ning Fan's, so he makes a move.
At this moment, Ning Fan heard the warning sound of the Saint Child Lei Shu.
[Fate branch appears: branch one, crush the stone ghost with absolute chess power, win the middle game, get dozens to fifty stars, additional rewards, ten thousand years of chess power ; branch two, fight the stone ghost to Guanzi, And win, get five points to 20 stars, extra rewards, "Dapin Winning and Loss" first part ; branch three, lost to the stone ghost, but persisted to Guanzi, got points two to ten stars, extra rewards, low-grade North Pole Dao Fruit one ; branch four, lose to the stone ghost, admit defeat in the middle game, get points from one to 5-stars, additional rewards, a pair of ; for the road stone chess set, branch five, cancel the game before the winner, no reward]
Ning Fan was slightly surprised.
What is Wannianqi? Can something like chess be rewarded directly?
If you think about it, it is not surprising that there are secret skills like empowerment promoting cultivation base in the world, and there are naturally ways to forcibly improve your chess skills.
Thinking about it, the real stone ghost has already settled down.
Four of four, lower left constellation.
It seems that the by no means is popular in the hometown of the Gargoyle. Out of respect for the upper hand, the stone ghost was selected at the upper right, and Ning Fan's lower left was the upper right of the stone ghost.
The other party treats each other with courtesy, and Ning Fan will not be rude.
White, 16 of 16, top right star.
Black, with a small star below.
White, with two stars above.
In the blink of an eye, more than a dozen hands went over, and the stone ghost's brows gradually wrinkled, seemingly puzzled.
It's very strange, very strange, the choice of Ning Fan's (Zhang Dao) layout stage today is very different from the brother Zhang he knew in the past.
I haven't seen each other for many years. Could it be that Brother Zhang has changed his chess path? Goblin secretly guessed.
Inadvertently, raised the head looked at Ning Fan's face.
From the point of view of the stone ghost, what I see at this moment is still his brother Zhang's face, which seems to be any different from the brother Zhang without/has not that he knew back then.
However, at this moment, Ning Fan brought a sense of strangeness to Real Stone Ghost.
Speaking of this incredible feeling, Shi Guizheng once again focused on chessboard, and his breath and breath were faintly integrated with chessboard, which is the proof of his mind complete set.
In the blink of an eye, more than ten hands passed.
The eerie feeling that haunts the mind of the Goblin man has grown more and more.
"It's weird, it's too weird! Brother Zhang didn't play the Nanliang Flying Knife, which he is best at, with me. The choice of also is also a bit strange..."
"When I played chess with Brother Zhang, I could feel the pressure almost from the layout stage, but today, it seems without/has not The feeling of oppression in the past is the result of me in recent years. become stronger Is it? still as outside world According to rumors, since his teacher passed away, Brother Zhang's chess skills have dropped. 1000 zhang (3333.33 meters) , it's not like the past..."
"Will win!"
"Facing Brother Zhang, I have the idea that first time will win! In this round, I will try my best to win!"
With the progress of the chess game, the real stone ghost War Intent became more and more prosperous, while Ning Fan felt a sense of oppression from chessboard to gradually.
"It's only in the layout stage, but I have already felt my disadvantage. This is an unprecedented situation. Is the chess power of this Stone Ghost real person so high?"
After all, almost all of Ning Fan's Go experience came from Ancient Chaos memory, and Ancient Chaos was never Chess Madman. For him, Go is just one of many hobbies, only nothing more.
In terms of strength, Ancient Chaos may be far above the stone ghosts, but in terms of chess power, it is far worse. Obviously, the real Stone Ghost paid much more Heart Blood than Ancient Chaos in the matter of Go.
"No, if you continue like this, you will lose!"
"The gap in experience is too huge! In my lifetime, plus the lifetime of Ancient Chaos Master's, the number of games played together may not be a fraction of this person's..."
Ning Fan's brows were furrowed, unprecedentedly, he concentrated all his energy on the game of chess.
Must go deeper.
Must, deeper...
Ning Fan felt that the small chessboard in front of him, as if turned into had entered the boundless sea, and his mind was continuing to go deeper into the seabed.
Then, in the next move, Ning Fan's without/has not fell on the choice given by Ancient Chaos memory, but he was indecisive and delayed without/has not.
He is calculating, calculating the complicated and cumbersome changes in the piece of chess in front of him!
15th variations...
18th...
22 types…
Three 19 species...
Various changes, inadvertently, and secretly compared with the many Go formulas that Bai Ling asked him for advice in recent days.
In my eyes, azure light flashes flickers!
Read ahead, get deeper and deeper!
At a certain moment, Ning Fan suddenly made a decision, and the first move finally fell.
This isn't the best move, but it's... Ning Fan's life, first time's move based on his own chess skills!
This move is not Ancient Chaos's Go, but Ning Fan's!
"Huh?" Real Stone Ghost snorted lightly, and then his expression fell on Ning Fan's chess move, gaze gradually solemn.
Inadvertently, when raised the head met Ning Fan's azure light flashes's twinkling eyes, he suddenly turned into shock.
"It's actually the door of Heaven and Mortal! And it's not the level of 1st layer. This, this is about to push 3rd Gate away! I can't imagine that I haven't seen it for many years. Although Brother Zhang's chess skills have weakened, his understanding has increased to such a terrifying level! Sure enough! Was it the passing away of his mentor, did it give him too much impact..."
"This is not the best move, but after this move, I can't understand his moves. What is the real purpose of his move..."
The rock ghost tried to calculate the various changes of this piece of chess, and the more calculations, the more complicated it felt.
After a long time, the stone ghost suddenly saw something clearly, and a drop of cold sweat fell from his forehead.
"This is actually a one-step test!"
"He is testing, from a very high position, testing my next what kind of response, and he has the confidence to do so, he must have already counted the local changes in this place! But how is it possible, like this In a short period of time, to calculate such changes in huge, even I can't do it..."
"It's so heavy! After reuniting with Brother Zhang this time, first time felt this level of pressure from him, even more than before! Although I used to feel pressure, it was actually an experience. Brother Zhang's talent is far better than mine, and his experience is even higher than mine, but now, my experience has caught up. However, today... the source of this pressure, is it from the difference in computing power? !”
In the blink of an eye, the rest of 40 passed by again.
The sweat on Shi Guiren's forehead became more and more, and he could feel that the advantages he had gained at the beginning of the layout stage had been eroded by Ning Fan little by little.
Another move fell, and the real stone ghost suddenly changed complexion.
I saw that Ning Fan's next response was in harmony with the previous adaptation of 40 Yushou. After the first hand, what seemed to be just a step of adaptation, turned out to be a direct benefit to the real stone ghost. sword!
"He actually buried such a move before the rest of 40!"
Losing the game is decided.
It is necessary to continue without/has not.
If you have a pair of eyes, you can clearly see the real-time win rate on chessboard. At this moment, the winning rate of the real Stone Ghost may not even be one in ten thousand.
So he let out a long sigh, relieved, regretful and unwilling.
Then took out two chess pieces, placed them on chessboard, and threw them to admit defeat.
White wins the middle game.
Ning Fan not only defeated the real stone ghost, but also almost crushed him in terms of computing power!
"I thought Brother Zhang was really like the rumors. In recent years, his chess skills have declined. I didn't expect Brother Zhang to just change the chess path to nothing more. Now he is more focused on improving his computing power... In this game, the younger brother was convinced that he lost. , with Brother Zhang's computing power, it is possible to compete against those chess players of the third rank of Second Grade!" Shi Guizhen was full of admiration.
Although he lost, he paid attention to the spirit of Chess Dao. Victory is gratifying, but defeat is also gratifying, especially after losing in such a wonderful move. If this game is spread, it may be included in the famous game records.
Thinking that one day he will be one of the becoming past and present famous players, even though it's just a background board, the real stone ghost is still very happy and honored.
"Tong'er, have you recorded the chess score?" Stone Ghost asked the Tonger beside him.
"Back to Honored Master, I wrote everything down." Tong Er respectfully said.
"Brother Zhang, why don't we come back now?" Stone Ghost pleaded.
"Okay." The end of the game is also a due etiquette, and Ning Fan will not refuse.
Although he won this round, he relied on the huge computing power that crushed the opponent's several Rank. If he did not enter the deepest Heaven and Mortal state, he would most likely lose.
Ning Fan knows very well that the opponent's game experience is definitely far exceed by oneself, so playing at this moment will definitely benefit his own chess skills.
Ning Fan didn't realize at this moment that he first time I felt the joy brought by Go itself.
That is a kind of fight that is different from cultivation bloodsea, but the intensity is not inferior to the death fight in a desperate situation.
"No wonder Bai Ling likes playing chess so much. I seem to understand this feeling..."
I then remembered that I had beaten the Gargoyle, and seemed to have completed the task of Saint Child Trial.
So check out the rewards.
Reward yourself for discovering Saint Child Lei Shu with a white, snow-covered, Snow Mountain bizarre Dao Fruit in the storage bag.
Because Ning Fan crushed and defeated the stone ghost, Saint Child Trial was awarded to Ning Fan's Wannian chess strength. This Dao Fruit is equivalent to Wannian chess strength to a certain extent.
After some replays, Stone Ghost instructed Tonger to put away the chessboard, carefully wrap the chess set, and give it to Ning Fan.
"This is a chess game made by the unique Taoist stone in my brother's hometown, just like the preamble, I gave it to Brother Zhang!"
And then ordered Tong'er tea and Dao Fruit to put on the table, and invited Ning Mortal Grade to taste it.
"Oh? It's actually enlightenment tea again?" Ning Fan was slightly surprised.
I didn't expect that the tea that the stone ghosts used to entertain guests was actually precious enlightenment tea leaves, which shows its grandeur.
Look at the Dao Fruit call from Mingtong'er, eh? How does this Dao Fruit look like the Dao Fruit rewarded by Saint Child Lei Shu, is it actually the same kind of fruit? The only difference is probably that the Dao Fruit of Stone Ghost Hospitality is of lower quality, which is not enough for the reward of Saint Child Trial.
"This is a newly planted by my brother Dao Fruit , although only inferior Dao Fruit degree, but regarding For you and me, it is also a rare treasure. "Really Stone Ghost asked Ning Fan to eat one. Dao Fruit , eat one yourself.
Ning Fan thanked the stone ghost and ate Dao Fruit, only to feel that the range of Sea of Consciousness has been slightly expanded, while the memory has been enhanced, the strength of Divine Sense has also been slightly improved, which is suddenly strange.
How to evaluate a person's chess ability?
A person's chess ability not only includes the person's Go talent, but also depends on the person's Go experience. Computing power, mental strength, memory strength, chess sense, proficiency degree, and even illusory chess movement... There are many factors that determine a person's chess strength. promoting in any aspect can promote the improvement of chess strength.
If the chess strength can be quantified, then this Dao Fruit is smaller, and the promoting brought to ordinary people is equivalent to improving the 10 years chess strength.
So... Saint Child Lei Shu's reward for 10,000 years of chess power is now a Dao Fruit, is it also under consideration by this kind of?
Then here comes the problem.
The lower grade Dao Fruit produced by Shi Guizheng is about as good as promoting cultivator 10 years.
My Dao Fruit is said to be enough to improve my chess skills for ten thousand years. What kind of quality Dao Fruit is it?
I don't know, it's inconvenient to take out the Dao Fruit and ask the stone ghost, otherwise, there will be suspicion of slap in the face. I kindly invite you to eat the very precious inferior Dao Fruit, what do you mean by a Dao Fruit that is hundreds of thousands of times higher in quality? Are you making fun of me? This is not appropriate.
Therefore, Ning Fan temporarily put aside the unknown Dao Fruit, intending to make calculations later.
Today's visit is not for the purpose of playing chess, but the stone ghost to tell you something.
At this moment, the chess has also been played, Dao Fruit has also eaten, and the tea has also been drank. The opponent should almost get to the point.
Sure enough.
After eating and drinking, the stone ghost real life boy cleaned up the cups and plates, and he brought Ning Fan into the Immortal Cave's inner room.
"I asked Brother Zhang to come here today because I have something to ask for, and I hope Brother Zhang will take care of his past affection and help me!" Stone Ghost asked with a serious expression.
