Lao Liang sees elephants: the trap of Jianghu chess game

Jianghu chess: one horse wiped out the stubborn enemy, and five soldiers made a scene in Wang Guan; The beauty of murder lies in the presence or absence, and the gains are few and far between; Why do you know it is difficult to take risks? The orange pestle foot worm can subdue dragons, which was famous thousands of years ago.

China chess is probably the most popular board game in China. It has been argued that there are many people who can play chess or mahjong in China. Maybe there are many people playing mahjong, but so far, mahjong is not a sport after all. Chess is one of the 78 national sports widely developed after the founding of New China. It is said that more than 300 million people in China can play chess, which makes chess the most grounded sport.

On the other hand, some people like playing mahjong, because it usually brings victory or failure, even a small bet can be pleasant. If you don't move at all and grind your fingers there, many people may not like to play. But chess is different. Even if it wins or loses, it won't move. Simply playing chess is very common and makes you anxious. If you don't win or lose, you can get so many people into it. This is the charm of chess.

When it comes to the basic skills and skills of chess, I'm afraid what we are most familiar with is the endgame of Jianghu. Many chess fans have had this experience. They saw a chess stall in the street, which was in a mess and surrounded by many people watching the game. Some chess fans, even with a bag of noodles on their shoulders and just bought something in their hands, forget everything when they see the mess in the Jianghu, so they put down their things and roll up their sleeves to try their hand. But what about the result?

Chess fans, as long as you go to the chess stall to break the pieces, I can say that you 100% lose, and it is difficult to win money from the other side. What is the reason? I'll tell you what the end is with some concrete examples.

Let's talk about the mess first. When learning chess, we usually learn the endgame first, then the opening game, and then the middle game. The endgame generally has its own routine, so it is necessary to practice in strict accordance with certain methods and master the steps and variants of each move skillfully. We usually hear two kinds of chess endgame, one is the actual endgame, which is what we often walk out of in actual combat. For example, how can a bicycle break a horse's double elephant, why can't a bicycle break a horse's double elephant and so on. , are called actual combat endgame. There is also a kind of chess endgame called Jianghu endgame, which is the chess endgame we saw in the street. Jianghu endpieces originated from the folk, mostly masterpieces of folk chess players, some from ancient chess books, and some from folk chess books. After sorting and rearranging, its layout is novel and concise, giving people the illusion of winning. Seemingly simple, in fact, there are profound twists and turns and endless changes. There are cleverly set traps to attract people. Sometimes four or five soldiers are present and completely released, so it is impossible to get out of this situation in actual combat.

The focus of the Jianghu endgame is not the endgame, but the word Jianghu.

What is Jianghu? Some people think of martial arts novels like the legendary swordsman when they mention Jianghu, that is, fighting and killing. Jianghu actually refers to a form of social existence in which people who master certain skills (including deception) rely on this skill to obtain economic benefits everywhere. In the old days, there were so-called "eight rivers and lakes", namely, gold, leather, color, hanging, leveling, group, tune and willow. The so-called Golden Gate refers to the business of reading horoscope, geomantic omen and astrology. Pimen is a doctor and a drug seller, the painting door is a juggler and a magician, the hanging door is a juggler and a juggler, the flat door is a rap business such as storytelling, drum singing and cross talk, and Tuanmen is a street singer and a beggar, with a colorful and admired tone. Liumen refers to Liyuan Opera.

The end of the river is also such a business. The business of playing chess and setting up stalls to earn some money with the end of the rivers and lakes is also called "poor family". In plain English, it means begging, begging. In the past, chaotic people were called "Muhuazi" in Jianghu, because beggars were called "men" and beggars with chess were called "Muhuazi". For example, Muhuazi plays chess with you. If you win, he will give you 20 yuan. If you lose, he will ask you for 20 yuan. By the way, the rules of Jianghu people asking for money. When an ordinary artist finishes performing art, even if he has a rich father, he will never hold a basket with his palm up when collecting money. Because palms up are beggars, artists earn hard money, so artists must put their palms down and hook them with their fingers to show that "I am a busker, not a beggar." But "Muhuazi" is a beggar's business, and the rules are different. When they collect money, they can receive it with their palms up.

In the early days, most people played chess for a living, but later the world changed and people's hearts changed. The endgame in the Jianghu began to ignore the essence of endgame, and evolved in the direction of "Jianghu"-playing tricks. It can even be said that this chess game is just a tool to fool you, and its core routine is "Jianghu".

There is a saying in the Jianghu that those who are really capable of speaking are called "tricky" and those who cheat are called "tricky". There is an old saying in Jianghu that "tricky and tricky, playing fairy" is a half-truth and half-falsehood trick in Jianghu. Jianghu people put these two things together, and the money they cheated was far more than the twenty or thirty dollars just now. High acting skills can cheat thousands of dollars, and some even go to the point of being suspected of committing crimes.

Let me give an example to explain the mystery in detail. Many people may have been cheated by this kind of Jianghu endgame. Let's give an example to analyze how Jianghu people succeed.

The following table is a common endgame, which may be familiar to many chess fans. I once saw someone cheating with this mess on the streets of four cities in China (Figure 1).

Figure 1

The scene of cheating is usually the same: the stall is set by an old man in his sixties, surrounded by many people. Someone in the crowd must be thinking about how to deal with this mess. For example, if my red car goes down, I will fight first, and the car will enter four, then the dark horse will retreat from six to eight (Figure 2), then the red car will draw two, then the red car will retreat from five to seven (Figure 3), and the red car will draw two or three, and then kill one. At this time, black can only return from 5 to 6 (Figure 4).

Figure 2: The car enters four, and the horse retreats six to eight.

Figure 3: The car is flat, like 5 and 7.

Figure 4: Car 2 draws 3, taxi 5 returns 6.

At this point, I went straight to the red car and killed a general. If he can't play black, won't I win (Figure 5)?

Figure 5: There are three cars, even cars and four cars.

Attention, everyone, this is the first trap of this chaos. At this time, Black's gun can reflect 5, directly pad. At the same time, the black car on the other side will also carry the red bus. This Jianghu mess is called "Noisy" (Figure 6).

Fig. 6: Gun 5 retreats 9.

General, your handsome boy can't get on, because another black car is nearby. So you lost.

The key to this first trap is the chess itself. Chess fans with a certain position can see this step, that is to say, this "set" can't help those chess fans who have reached a certain position, so those who set up chess games have to continue to set up chess games.

This is the same as playing chess. Just when you think about it, a young man in his early twenties stands out, dressed in fashionable clothes, and has been watching for a long time. This person is still a little "Qing Er". When he saw no one, he came out to challenge:

"Your family can't play chess. When you get off this bus, you can kill horses, elephants and soldiers. Don't be a veteran here. You really bully people who can't play chess in the street! I tell you, you are looking for death by setting up a stall like this! "

The onlookers are watching quietly, and the chess fans with certain status must be thinking that the little boy can't see the black cannon going back to "make trouble" at all, and his chess skills are definitely not so good. At this time, their psychological roles have changed. Originally, they were afraid of the old man who set up a stall, fearing that his design was clever. At this time, they have become contempt for the young man, despising his frivolity and recklessness.

At this time, if no one comes out to "bite the hook" again, the old man who set up the stall will use a dare. He said:

"Ladies and gentlemen, judges, is this game as simple as the young man said? He is too young. He really doesn't know much. At my age, playing chess with him is bullying. In this way, whoever makes two moves will be punished for me. You can make an offer. After winning, you will be in a good mood and your life will be smooth, and then you will throw me five dollars. Even if I earn it from the stall today, I won't waste half a day here. "

One or two people in the crowd will get angry when the chess player "feeds" like this. If they don't like this young man, they will stand up and say something:

"Young man, don't you see that there is a set in this chess game, which is not what you think.

Young people, of course, want to continue acting, and they do well:

"What, you are better than me? This car is a fight, and he can't get on as an old soldier. I think that's what happened. Did you see the trap? Are you pretending? " He is serious, but someone in the crowd must believe him. Then he taught the young man a lesson: "Young man, why don't you know good or bad?"

After a long time, the two men quarreled.

Then the old man who set up the stall came out to stop the fight:

"You stop noisy, so many people are watching.

Then point out who spoke to the chess fans:

"A look at you is a knowledgeable person, you are a teacher, you have the ability, the young man little, you have to give him a lesson. Well, you bet, I'll make an offer, 100 yuan a plate. How about a game? " If the chess fans who just catch up don't care about the hundred dollars, they will really take out the money to fight. The young man took advantage of the opportunity of fighting, one hundred each, and put the money into the old man's hand. The young man will also say some irritating words when playing chess: "Then I can go. I tell you, don't blame you for losing. Whoever relies on it is an asshole."

The young man began to play chess. As mentioned above, the red car enters 4, the dark horse retreats 8, the red car draws 2, the black elephant retreats 7, the red car draws 3 and the black man retreats 6 (Figure 4).

This is the first trap we just talked about. The young man picked up the car and tried to kill the stone, but suddenly, he put the chess down again. He paused, then put on a pretentious face that people could see, stood up and said:

"No, I lost seven hundred at mahjong yesterday. I'll bet on this one hundred dollars. Why not add more money? Dare to add? If you can't add it, you will pull it down! "

Everyone around you knows that the young man wanted to kill the scholar, but suddenly he saw the move of "playing chess", wanted to go back on his word, and deliberately insisted on challenging him. Of course, the other side will quit, and will definitely hit Reservoir Dogs.

The young man continued to say in a tone of wanting to cheat, and closed his mouth:

"Bet is ok, but one hundred dollars is too little. We will add another $700. If we bet 800 dollars, I will bet, but I can't add any more. " The other party must have thought that the young man was cheating and found an excuse to run away, and suddenly the fire in his heart arched. People often lose their minds when quarreling, and a group of onlookers are waiting to see the drama, so each person takes out 700 yuan to the old man.

It was the young man's turn to do it this time, but he didn't take the step of killing the man. This is the subtlety of this mess-the second "set". He took the Red Army's three customs and four customs and ate cheese (Figure 7), so the bottom car came out and the two cars were opposite.

Figure 7: Bing Sheng Ping Si

At this time, if you fire a gun, the other car will come back, which is impossible (Figure 8). So what if you kill the black car back? Note that if the car comes back from 7-9, the red chess will be very subtle next: the red soldier will take six steps to make one step, the black chess will take five steps (Figure 9), and then the red soldier will take four steps to make one step (Figure 10).

Fig. 8: Gun 5 retreats 9. Car 3 enters 9.

Figure 9: Car 7 retreats 9, Red Army 6 advances 1, Black Army 4 draws 5.

Figure 10: Red soldiers enter four and enter one.

Go to this plate, no matter how dark it is below, red will form a situation of "double ghosts patting the door". Chess fans with a certain position can also see that this is a trick to kill. Go to this set, the red side has been a shoo-in.

Some people will say, then I won't go like this. After the car comes out, I won't kill it Is it feasible to hide in the car? In fact, if you dodge a step in this chess game, you will die: the red soldier moves in six steps, the black general moves in four steps, the red soldier moves in one step, and the black general retreats and kills (figure 1 1, 12, 13).

Figure 1 1: The black car hides one step, and the cars are 7 and 8.

Figure 12: Red soldiers scored six in one, and black generals scored four in five.

Photo 13: General Black, General Red, get off and kill.

The young man's later move is the essence of this chess game and is also "sharp". The young man is actually an insider, and the performance of challenging, cheating and adding money is very "tricky". But by the time you understand, it's too late, and 800 yuan has already reached someone else's pocket. Of course, this 800 yuan is not all for young people. When all the onlookers dispersed, he celebrated with the old man who set up the stall, each with 400 yuan.

This is what we are talking about. The core of the Jianghu endgame is not all endgame. This relatively hidden trap is everywhere in Jianghu scams, and chess is just a child care. What really cheats money is their superb acting skills. Of course, there are more negative things in reality. For example, it is agreed to put the money up, even if you don't lose or win in the end, when the other party returns the money to you as promised, you have secretly changed the money into counterfeit money.

The so-called rivers and lakes are sinister and hard to prevent. When we all go out and meet things we don't know or understand, we must not join in the fun.

In fact, the endgame of Jianghu is very similar to our life. In society, we often encounter all kinds of tricks and traps, and we will be tempted to fall in if we are not careful. But then again, why do people get cheated? There are actually two reasons. First, because you are impetuous and competitive, you will be easily angered and fooled if you lose your usual mentality. Second, because of inner greed, I feel profitable when I see the seemingly relaxed endgame and want to take advantage of it. You know, the weakness of the human heart is the starting point for liars. It is better to cultivate yourself from time to time than to be wary of others every day. So "See the Elephant in the Old Beam" uses this small chessboard to see everything in the world. If you speak from the heart, there will be blood flowing in your heart, so your heart is red; People must have black eyes if they want to see this shining world clearly. But once your eyes are red, your heart is black. Whether the swindler cheated you or you let the swindler take advantage of it, it is harmful to society. So when I say chess, I mean to persuade people to be good. Chess is a sport for smart people, but smart should be used in the right place. I hope everyone pays more attention to chess, not rivers and lakes.
