Hua Jinyan took on the role of a little teacher and patiently instructed, "The Go board is marked with nine small dots, known as the star points, and the central star point is also called 'Tianyuan'."
"Go is a strategic two-player board game, known as 'Yi' in ancient Hua Country and is one of the four arts of the qin, Go, calligraphy, and painting, considered to be the most complex board game in the world."
Hua Jinyan picked up a white piece and a black piece and handed them to Little Taotie, placing them in Little Taotie's soft, tender palms.
"The pieces are divided into two colors, black and white, and are generally flat and round. There are normally 180 pieces for each color."
"Each player holds one color, with black playing first and white playing second, alternating moves. Each turn, only one piece may be placed."
Little Taotie picked up a black piece and placed it on the board then picked up a white piece and placed it on the board, mumbling, "Black first, white later."
