Gerald Crawford: The Secretly or invisible Rich Man Chapter 1850

Hearing Gerald’s question, Torme then explained, “You simply need to place your hand on the soulbamboo. Once you do, it’ll transmit its meaning into your mind. However, please remember to use yourheart to feel it! Don’t ever be led astray!”

Immediately doing as Torme said, Gerald then placed his hand onto the bamboo… and all of a sudden,the soul bamboo began glowing in a light blue hue!

Gerald watched as the glow slowly enveloped his hand… and a split second later, the youth foundhimself standing within a white space.

Looking around, Gerald saw that aside from an old man—who was sitting cross-legged on the ground—and a Go board before that man, there was nothing else in this empty dimension…

While he was slightly stunned, Gerald quickly snapped out of it before walking over to the old man…

“Ah, here you are, mister! Come, have a seat!” invited the old man before Gerald could even say aword.

Upon hearing that, Gerald simply did as he was told.

Watching as Gerald sat opposite of him, the old man then said, “Since you’re already here, why notplay a game with me?”

Nodding in response, Gerald simply replied, “It would be an honor to play with you, sir!”

Smiling, the old man chose not to say anything as he slowly waved his hand… and just like that, the Goboard was cleared.

Seeing that, Gerald respectfully said, “After you, sir!”

Still choosing to remain silent, the old man simply grinned as a stone hovered out from the Go bowland placed itself on the board!

While the magical scene definitely surprised Gerald, he quickly snapped out of it, knowing that it wasnow his turn.

Taking a black stone out from the Go bowl, Gerald then placed it on the board as well.

While it was true that Gerald had some experience with Go, it wasn’t a lot by any means. With that inmind, he wasn’t particularly good at the game. Even so, the game was an immersive one, and the duocontinued putting stone after stone on the board… until eventually, Gerald’s defeat was sealed.

“Try not to get overly impatient or anxious, mister. You have to learn to understand the profoundmeaning of the game…,” said the old man.

Upon hearing that, Gerald could immediately tell that there was some underlying meaning behind thosewords. If what he had managed to gather was correct, in order to fully grasp the bamboo’s meaning, hefirst needed to understand the game inside out…

With that in mind, the second game soon commenced.novelbin

While Gerald was certainly no expert yet, he had improved considerably compared to the first game.

Gerald had realized that he had merely been on the defense throughout the first game. Due to that, helacked the strength to counterattack at the last moment and was promptly defeated. In Torme’s words,he had been ‘led astray’.

Regardless, now that he knew where his mistake was, Gerald no longer remained on the defensive.Instead, he launched attack after attack! After a vigorous battle with the old man, however, Gerald stillended up losing.

“You’ve greatly improved from the last game, mister! Your success is near! I can feel it!” said the manbefore clearing the board again.

The second the third game began, Gerald took the initiative to attack. He wasn’t about to get led astrayby the old man anymore. Instead, he was going to be the dominant one this time!

Since his Go game skills had greatly improved by this point, it honestly surprised even Gerald himselfthat the old man wasn’t able to launch any counterattacks.

Either way, after an even more vigorous battle than before, Gerald finally attained victory.

“Congratulations on gaining a complete understanding, mister! You may leave now!” said the old manafter losing the game.

Surprised to hear that, Gerald was about to ask something when he realized that the old man and thego board had vanished!
