Go Legend

   Chapter 75 Network Jianghu

   The time has come to mid-December, and the "Samsung Cup" top 16 battle has ended for a week. On this day, Li Xiangping landed on Lianzhong.com.

  Red Bridge Wolong: "Bai Yi, is that you?"

  The boy in white: "Hehe, the boss of Hongqiao, it's me."

  Hongqiao Wolong: "Haha, Bai Yi, you haven't been here for a while. Are you really Li Xiangping, and "Exquisite Art"?"

Li Xiangping, who was sitting at the computer, was happy. In fact, his true identity, Hongqiao, the leader of Lianzhong's "beggar gang", knew for a long time, but now it is different from before. This time he broke into the eighth professional competition. Qiang, his practice of reconfirming this is of course normal on the Internet.

  The boy in white: "Hehe, it's more real than real gold. If it's fake, it's me. What, does the boss of Hongqiao have anything to do with me today?"

  Hongqiao Wolong: "It's really you, that's great, I want to ask Bai Yi, are you free recently? Can you play a few games online?"

Li Xiangping was happy when he heard it. In fact, when he heard Hongqiao talking to himself, he almost guessed that this was the case, because in this day and age, it is definitely the golden age of the Internet, and its flavor is absolutely necessary. Much richer than later generations. Many people think that as a chess fan, if you haven't tasted the life of the Lianzhong gangs these days, you will definitely not have experienced what the real online Go life is.

However, for the current Li Xiangping, he is not very interested in the invitation of Hongqiao. After all, he has lived in two generations, and he is not very interested in being an Internet celebrity, let alone passing the first two games. , He is now thinking about upgrading his plug-in practice to make up for the shortcomings, and Li Xiangping thinks that if he only plays online chess, it is of little significance to Lao Shi.

   After all, the flaws of Shi Daqisheng mainly lie in the modern layout, and the role of online chess is mainly to maintain the proficiency of chess.

   But out of courtesy, Li Xiangping asked:

The boy in white: "There is time, but the boss of Hongqiao, I still have to go to school. I can't guarantee if I have time to play chess at night. By the way, can I ask what the game is? I just heard what you said. , it seems that there are several more dishes to be placed?"

   Li Xiangping really didn't lie. After the game with Mr. Kato, he entered the school where Cai Shanshan was studying on the second day and became a second year student again.

   He was a middle school student at school in the morning, and went to the Chinese Chess Academy to train in the afternoon or evening. This is his daily routine for the past week. His family lives in the North Third Ring Road, the Chinese Chess Academy is in Lao Chongwen District, and his school is in Haidian District, so to be honest, he really can't guarantee that he can catch up with the game every night.

  Hongqiao Wolong: "Hehe, it's the first Lianzhong Online League led by our Beggar Gang, so there may be a lot of games."

  The boy in white: "Oh, it's the league"

  Li Xiangping vaguely remembers that around 2000, Lianzhong really did such a competition.

  The boy in white: "Which teams are participating?"

  Hongqiao Wolong: "In addition to our Beggar Gang, there are Butterfly Valley, Snowy Taoyuan, Tibetan Sword Villa, Yilin Family, yes, Liangshan and Qiantang Gang"

   Every time Hongqiao mentions a name, it brings back a good memory of Li Xiangping, because he is familiar with these gangs, and even has his vest in more than 80% of the gangs. Especially "Snowy Taoyuan" and "Tibetan Sword Villa", these two gangs are strictly speaking the "beggar gang".

"Tibetan Sword Villa" is mainly for Qilu Internet Go fans based on Weijia Qilu Club. The owner of the village is named "Jianchi", and his masters are like clouds. Look at their screen names: "Blade Leng", "Jianguang" "Cold", "No trace of blood", "Heart-piercing halberd", "No light in the moon"... In short, all of them carried a murderous aura.

Compared with "Tibetan Sword Villa", what impresses Li Xiangping even more is "Snowy Taoyuan", because the gang leader of this gang is a MM, a real female chess fan, and the name of the snowy disciple is also a water girl. Names: Huang Rong, Zhi'er, Bing Xue'er, Brigitte Lin, Maggie Cheung, Xue Qian... It can be regarded as an interesting contrast to the Tibetan Sword Villa.

   Especially when he participated in the first online league, a limerick written by a talented female chess friend from "Snowy Taoyuan" impressed Li Xiangping very deeply, and he has not forgotten it for more than 10 years.

The    poem reads as follows:

  The wind swirled the clouds for a hundred thousand days,

   Flowers stand alone in the bushes.

  Xuewu's wild sword unsheathed,

  The moon can also be cut in half!

  Xiaxia reflects the pattern and the purple air is warm,

  Yushu must look up when facing the cliff.

  Red Hurricane Volume Lianzhong,

  Fang traces are everywhere in Taoyuan!

   This is a hidden poem, "Wind, Flower, Snow, Moon, Xia, Jade, Red, Fang" is exactly the 8 masters of "Snowy Taoyuan".

   Of course, don't think that a female chess player must be a female chess player with an online name. For example, "Lin Qingxia" here, Li Xiangping knew him in real life. At that time, he was a young boy, and then he was a big guy.

   Hearing that it only brought back memories of Li Xiangping, but when Hongqiao announced the names of the last two gangs, this caught Li Xiangping's attention.

  The boy in white: "Oh? Will Liangshan and Qiantang Gang also participate this time?"

Hongqiao Wolong: "Yes, these two gangs have been very popular recently, especially this "Liangshan", let me tell you the truth in Baiyi, I think this league may be the most threatening to us is this "Liangshan" , that's why I thought of inviting you to play a few games of chess for the Beggar Gang."

  The boy in white: "Hehe, I'm not qualified to stand in front of Liangshan."

   Li Xiangping's words are really not modest. To be honest, in the online arena, Li Xiangping has never seen a gang with such powerful strength and prestige as Liangshan, so deeply penetrated into the foundation of Chinese Go. Maybe you don’t see many people from Liangshan, but if the organization needs it, you will find many gang organizers and activists around you, talented and beautiful people on the forum, and some well-known national players. before.

The boy in white: "If the boss of Hongqiao is not like this, I may not have the time to play against other gangs, but for the match between "Liangshan" and "Qiantang Gang", you can inform me in advance when the game is going to be played, I will definitely play these two games. arrive."

   After all, "Exquisite Art" already has a certain status on the Internet, so after hearing what Li Xiangping said, Hongqiao Wolong hurriedly said:

   "Ok okay."

Li Xiangping further demanded: "By the way, the boss of Hongqiao, please help me pay attention to these two vests during the competition, one is Liangshan's "Daoguan Sheng", and the other is Qiantang Gang's "white paper fan" "If they don't send these two people, it's fine. If they do, then please leave these two opponents to me."

  Hongqiao Wolong: "Okay, okay? Do you know who these two people are in Baiyi? Who are they?"

  The boy in white: "Hey, I know a little bit, but it's not convenient to say it now, I'll tell you during the game."

Li Xiangping, who has lived in two generations, of course knows who these two are. Liangshan's "big sword Guansheng" is Lao Nie, while Qiantang Gang's "white paper fan" is Ma Xiao, the former "Nie Ma Shuangxiong" in the Chinese chess world. .

  Li Xiangping believes that if you want to improve the layout level of Lao Shi at this stage, only these two have this qualification and ability.

   At this stage, I have learned tricks with the two of them, which may be more effective than going to the Chinese Chess Academy for training, which is why Li Xiangping wants to play these two games.
