Chapter 469: Promoting 19-Line Chess

In the Coffee Gu specialty store.

At this time, Long Xuan didn't know that he had avoided a crisis unintentionally and was playing chess with the Chess Worm leisurely. Both sides were having a great time at this time.

The Chess Worm looked like a chess piece, not big, sitting on the edge of the table. Without seeing any movement, the chess pieces in the chess jar could fly up and fall on the chessboard.

In the quiet small shop, the sound of chess pieces falling on the chessboard could be heard from time to time, slapping loudly.

On this day, the Coffee Gu and coffee in the shop were swept away by the frantic crowd again. Long Xuan had no choice but to close early and play Go with this Chess Worm.

The Chess Worm loved playing chess. To refine this Chess Worm into a Chess Gu, there was a must-do step, which was to accompany it to play chess every day until it was cultivated into a chess master.

And the chess Long Xuan was playing with the Chess Worm was exactly the Go rules of his previous life, and the chessboard was also the 19-line chessboard with the most squares.

The Chess Worm was very interested in this novel Go rule, exceeding its previous love for playing chess. For a time, it became addicted and had to pester Long Xuan to compete with it every day.

Unfortunately, the 19-line chess was the first time it appeared in this world, and the Chess Worm was not familiar with it at all. But Long Xuan was an old hand who was immersed in this path. No matter how talented this little thing was at playing chess, how could it be his opponent?

Every game, Long Xuan killed this little thing without leaving a piece, and he was in a great mood.

However, this Chess Worm was more and more addicted to playing the worse it was, and the more it lost, the more it wanted to win. After playing chess every day, it had to go back to review the game, studying it tirelessly, reaching the point of being possessed.

Under such circumstances, the growth speed of this Chess Worm's chess strength was terrifyingly fast. Unknowingly, Long Xuan began to feel more and more pressure when playing chess with it, and every step of falling pieces had to be thought about for a long time.

Long Xuan couldn't help but sigh at the Chess Worm's terrifying talent for playing chess. How long had it been? Clearly, this Chess Worm's talent for playing chess was far higher than his own. As time passed, it would sooner or later surpass him one day.

Losing to a worm, I have to say, made him feel very faceless.

"19-line Go, two more lines than the original Go. You can really innovate. The chessboard of Go is not the more squares the better."

Zhu Jiuge walked over, looking at the 19-line chessboard she had never seen before, revealing a look of curiosity on her face.

But at the same time, she was dismissive of this way of playing, but looking at it, her gaze became grave.

As a high-achieving student of the Saint Gu Academy, how could she not understand playing chess? She didn't take this way of playing seriously at first. How could the size of the chessboard be changed at will?

But looking at it, with her attainments in the path of chess, it was not difficult to see that playing chess with this chessboard brought more changes, was also more brain-consuming.

And the essence of playing chess was to use the brain. If this way of playing was more brain-consuming than the original way of playing, wouldn't it mean that 19-line chess was a way of playing that surpassed 17-line chess? Her heart set off a stormy sea, and she was completely unable to calm down.

She knew too well what this meant. This meant that once this way of playing was recognized by the world, then 17-line chess would be eliminated and permanently exit the long river of history.

At that time, everyone would play 19-line chess, and no one would play the ancient 17-line chess anymore.

If 19-line chess was stronger than 17-line chess, then the Chess Gu refined with 19-line chess would inevitably be stronger. At that time, all Chess Gu in the world would usher in a wave of strengthening, and the person who created 19-line chess would become the originator of this chess path school and be remembered by later generations.

What a meritorious thing this was. The appearance of 19-line chess would definitely shock the whole world. She had a premonition that this world would soon have a big earthquake because of the appearance of 19-line chess.

"Did you invent this? Do you plan to create a stronger Go rule to refine Gu?" Zhu Jiuge looked at Long Xuan with shocked eyes, full of disbelief.

Long Xuan's mouth curled up. Although 19-line chess was not invented by him, it had never appeared in this world, and no one knew about it at all, so he nodded shamelessly, thick-skinned and said: "That's right! This way of playing was exactly what I pondered blindly. I observed that the original chessboard was too small and there was no difficulty in challenging it, so I wanted to invent a way of playing with higher difficulty."

"Hard work pays off. After my tireless research, more advanced Go rules were finally researched by me. This Chess Worm likes the new rules I researched very much, which is enough to prove that my Go rules are feasible."

Zhu Jiuge didn't doubt it and said gravely: "Then do you plan to promote your 19-line chess in this world?"

Long Xuan revealed a bitter smile, looked at her, and said helplessly: "To tell you the truth, I don't like being high-profile. Being high-profile is inevitably accompanied by risks. Before this, I really didn't want to promote 19-line chess in this world."

"But there is no way. I want to use 19-line chess to refine Gu. Once the Chess Gu is formed, I have to play chess with geniuses from all sides, and I must use the rules of 19-line chess."

"Under such circumstances, if no one in this world knows how to play 19-line chess, the Chess Gu's ability will not be effective on anyone. Then wouldn't my Chess Gu be refined in vain?"

"I can only promote the way of playing 19-line chess and let more people know."

"Then what do you plan to do? Do you have any plans?" Zhu Jiuge's appearance was extremely serious, and she asked again.

"No plans. I just want to set a rule in the Coffee Gu specialty store, which is that those who want to buy top-grade Coffee Gu must play a game of chess with my Chess Worm using the rules of 19-line chess."

"In this way, my Chess Worm not only has opponents to hone its chess skills, but also achieves the purpose of promoting 19-line chess."

"I don't need to do too many things. As long as 19-line chess is far stronger than 17-line chess, I don't need to waste time promoting it all over the world, it will become popular by itself."

Zhu Jiuge nodded and agreed: "It makes sense. Good wine is not afraid of deep alleys. Good things will not be buried. Let this matter take its course."

Long Xuan nodded and smiled: "I will hang the rules of 19-line chess outside the store tomorrow and note that those who buy top-grade Coffee Gu must play a game against the Chess Worm in the store using the Go rules."

Long Xuan's mouth curled up. This was just a warm-up, first letting people in the city become familiar with the rules of 19-line chess.

The geniuses in the city like clouds in the Saint Gu Academy, especially those geniuses who are qualified to enter the ninth floor of the black tower to cultivate, can be considered the most outstanding geniuses in the entire Gu World, and their future achievements are bound to be extraordinary.

These geniuses have all been on his list of must-compete, and to make these geniuses willing to play chess, I fear he can only take out Coffee Gu that can tempt them.

I don't know if Zhu Jiuge can create more heaven-defying top-grade Coffee Gu in the next period of time. Long Xuan was full of expectations. (End of chapter) ===== CHAPTER 470 =====
