The examiner glanced at it and said the first sentence: "The time limit is ten breaths, and the answers are not allowed to be modified."
Nangong Jingnu looked at the blank paper in the examiner's hand and had an idea! The answer turned out to be the name of the maid next to the second sister, which was a Chinese herbal medicine: Angelica dahurica.
As soon as the words fell, less than half of the people wrote their answers on the paper, and most of them were still thinking hard.
Nangong Jingnu looked nervously at Qi Yan, who was calm and composed but had not yet started writing. She wanted to rush to the stage to write down the answer for her.
After three breaths, half of the people wrote down their answers.
After five breaths, most of the people wrote down their answers. Qi Yan glanced at the audience, as if searching for something.
After eight breaths, even the clueless person wrote down his answer, and Qi Yan also started writing.
"Time's up! The answer is a Chinese herbal medicine: Angelica dahurica. It's easy to make mistakes if you have the same pronunciation but different words. Please step down if you get the wrong answer, and we'll fight again next year."
The crowd suddenly understood. Some people praised the lantern riddle for its wonderfulness, while others thought it was nonsense.
Half of the dozens of people left with hatred, and the arena suddenly became empty.
Nangong Jingnu smiled happily when she saw that Qi Yan got the answer right.
The examiner lifted up the red silk covering the tray, and a bunch of copper coins were neatly stacked on it.
"Congratulations, you guests can take the bonus from the first level and leave, or you can continue to pass the level. The reward for the next level is one tael of silver."
Half of the more than forty people left came to the table, each took a handful of money and left the ring.
Through this blank piece of paper, they have already appreciated the profound heritage of Tingyu Tower. The first level is just a small test, and it is not difficult to imagine the level after that. Although the money is not much, it is enough to eat at roadside stalls.
Besides, it was bought with a penny, so leaving is the wise choice.
In the blink of an eye, there were only more than twenty people left in the ring. Seeing so many people leaving, a few people slowly moved out of the team, went to the table, took the bounty, and left.
The middle-aged man next to Nangong Jingnu said again: "Young master, have you seen it? This is the first level. There are more people on the stage than in previous years."
The examiner's eyes swept across the twenty-one people on the stage, and he said loudly: "Dear guests, is there anyone who wants to collect the reward?"
No one came out.
The old man raised his right hand: "Please go to the next group."
Twenty-one people climbed up the steps and came to the second level.
The waiters handed out charcoal pens and paper again. The examiner in the second group personally opened the long box on the table. The two waiters took out two scrolls from inside, raised them above their heads and released their hands.
The scroll was unfolded, and the characters of flying dragons and phoenixes came into view, which turned out to be a couplet.
The first couplet is: black is not, white is not, red and yellow are not; they are like foxes, wolves, cats and dogs, neither domestic animals nor wild beasts.
The second couplet is: There are poems, lyrics, and the Analects of Confucius; it is vague about east, west, south, and north. Although it is a short article, it is also a wonderful article.
The examiner stood with his hands raised and said: "Fifteen breaths in a time limit, let's start."
There was a commotion in the audience: "This is too difficult? Not even given the scope?"
"Even if you don't give a range, you should explain the answer to the riddle in a few words, right?"
"Whose hand did this calligraphy come from? It's really a masterpiece!"
And when those who got off the ring with the copper coins saw this pair of lantern riddles, they were all glad for their decision.
Tingyu Tower really deserves its reputation! This is only the second level!
Now even Nangong Jingnu was stumped. The two pairs were neither divided nor flat. The examiner didn't even give a clue, even a few words of the answer
After ten breaths, only one person picked up the pen, but it was not Qi Yan.
A scholar who was about the same age as Qi Yan confidently wrote the answer on the paper and then stood with his hands behind his hands, smiling and looking confident.
Nangong Jingnu bit her lip and looked at Qi Yan nervously.
When the examiner started counting down, Qi Yan started writing
"Time's up! The answer to the riddle is the word 'guess'. It's easy to make mistakes if the words have the same pronunciation but different words. Please get off the stage if you answer incorrectly."
The spectators in the audience suddenly realized, isn¡¯t this just ¡®guessing a riddle¡¯?
Black is not, white is not, red and yellow are not; they are like foxes, wolves, cats and dogs, neither domestic animals nor wild beasts. Speculation is just guesswork.
There are also poems, lyrics, and the Analects of Confucius; they are vague about east, west, south, and north. Although they are short articles, they are also wonderful articles. They are everywhere and are confusing!
¡°How wonderfulZhen Zhen exclaimed, and then cast his gaze on Qi Yan, wanting to hear how the answer to the riddle was derived.
Gu Feng made a gesture of invitation: "Brother, please come."
Qi Yan nodded, first saluted the examiner respectfully, and then turned around and saluted the spectators in the audience.
The two people on stage were of similar age, and they reached the third level together and got the answer at the same time.
"But compared to Gu Feng's sharp edge, Qi Yan's gentle and courteous character is more favorable to people. Even Nangong Jingnu couldn't help but raise her chin proudly, thinking: Even though it's understandable to be arrogant because of one's talents, those who are full of knowledge and can restrain themselves are the most valuable! What's so great about Gu Feng? Qi Yan is still "two yuan and one flower"!
snort.
Qi Yan explained: "I am not a talented student. I was lucky enough to see this stele during my study tour. The name of this stele is: "Cao E's Stele". Cao E was a filial daughter in the Eastern Han Dynasty. Cai Yong, a great master of the Eastern Han Dynasty, transcribed this stele. down, and named it "The Stele of Dutiful Daughter Cao E". Mr. Cai Yong left "Yellow Silk Young Woman, Grandson Junjiu" as annotation. And the answer to this question is hidden in these eight characters, which is really a wonderful way to break up the characters. lantern riddles."
The examiner stroked his beard: "Not bad."
The audience shouted: "What mystery is hidden in these eight words? Master, please explain it!"
"Huang Juan's young wife and grandson Junjiu. How did you break it down into a 'wonderful speech'? Sir, can you tell me?"
"That's right."
"We are all ears!"
Qi Yan turned to look at the examiner, and when he saw the examiner nodded in agreement, he bowed his hands to the audience: "In this case, the student will be bold enough to show off."
"Yellow silk is a kind of colored silk. It takes the radical of '¾î' and combines with 'É«' to form the character "Jue". "Young woman" is "girl", and the combination is the character "Miao". Grandson As the son of a woman, the word "woman" combined into one is the word "good". "èa" is the pounded ginger and garlic, and the "èamortar" is the container for pounding the ginger and garlic, and it is also the "vessel for suffering". These four The characters combined together form the character 'ci'. Therefore, the eight characters for Huang Juan's young wife and her grandson Junjiu are broken down into: "Excellent and good speech."
