Qing Wuzi was poor when he was young. He went to a private school to eavesdrop. He wanted to learn a few words, but when he saw the teacher playing chess, he was obsessed with it.
Chopping wood, herding cattle, and farming, Qing Wuzi stopped thinking about Go all the time. He couldn’t afford a chess board, so he set the ground for chess, and used stones as his pieces.
If there is no opponent, he will divide himself into two and fight each other.
In order to temper his chess skills, he polished a Go game himself, then set up a stall in the town, saying that if he could win, he would work for him for a month without receiving any wages.
So those landlords and wealthy merchants who were bored and wanted to take advantage of the game came to play.
