Chapter 72 Fight again
Li Yunqing claimed to be digging a tomb... Well, it was wrong, it was called "absolutely unparalleled". This name is definitely not a false reputation. Shi Yiru, who was known as the "righteous king" in the capital, was defeated by Li Yunqing. Since becoming famous in that battle, Li Yunqing has never suffered many challenges and has never lost.
But this time it was different. When Li Yunqing looked at the smile on the corner of Jiang Xia's mouth, he had already started to feel a little uneasy.
In Gushan Temple, a general was riding a sword and a horse. Such an absolute top couplet was just right. The skill of such a pair of pairs was not easy. If Li Yunqing used to be full of confidence in anyone, then his confidence has begun to shake now.
Li Yunqing took a deep breath, stretched out his right hand and made a "please" gesture to Jiang Xia, "Please send the first couplet."
After thinking about it, Jiang Xia simply said five words: "Smoke locks the willows in the pond."
A couplet with five characters does not seem difficult.
Liang Wenhan, who was standing beside Jiang Xia, was a little worried. He said with a little anxiously: "What's going on with Brother Jiang? Why did the words in this couplet become less and less? Li Yunqing said at least ten words just now. Brother Jiang was fine, so he gave five words directly. Isn't it intentional to let go of water? "
"Bang!" Wang Wenbo finally couldn't help but pat Liang Wenhan's head. He said angrily: "Do you think the more words the couplet is, the harder it is?"
"Isn't it?" Liang Wenhan asked weakly.
Wang Wenbo lowered his voice and said, "Think about Brother Jiang's first couplet, 'Smoke locks the willows of the pond'. My god, I have never encountered such a wonderful first couplet. If Li Yunqing could match me, Wang Wenbo, cut off his head and put it on him as a stool."
"Is it so amazing? Tell me quickly. What is the mystery of the top couplet with just five characters?" Liang Wenhan asked quickly.
Wang Wenbo smiled and analyzed it to Liang Wenhan: "You think, there are only five characters in the smoke lock pond willow, but the radicals of each character are different, and the five elements of the "Gold, Wood, Water, Fire and Earth" are just put together. If Li Yunqing wants to match the second couplet with neat parallelism, then he has to find five characters. The radicals must also be 'Gold, Wood, Water, Fire and Earth', and the literal meaning is reasonable. This is probably difficult to climb to heaven."
After listening to Wang Wenbo's analysis, Liang Wenhan also lowered his head and calculated. He murmured to himself: "The radical of the smoke is 'fire', the radical of the lock is 'jin', the pool is 'water', the pond is 'soil', and the willow is 'mu'. Sneak..." Liang Wenhan took a breath slightly and said in surprise: "I didn't expect it to be really gold, wood, water, fire and earth. Brother Jiang is amazing, no wonder he is Grandpa Li's disciple."
Looking at Li Yunqing again, he was indeed as frowning as Wang Wenbo had expected. He bit his index finger and kept thinking, while Jiang Xia also stood aside with a smile without urging him. In the end, the people around him who were attracted by their Xun Wenxue Society started to clamor with dissatisfaction.
"Oh, can you do it? If you don't, just accept it. Look at others, you only took a little effort to deal with your couplets. Look at you, I'm afraid that this time will be over for a cup of tea."
"That's right, even if you get the speed, you may lose."
"Yes, would you consider waiting for the New Year's Eve dinner at the end of the year before talking about the second couplet?"
Listening to the people's discussion, Li Yunqing finally gave up struggling. His face turned red and white. Finally, he had to sigh and said to Jiang Xia: "I can't think of the second couplet, you... won."
"Oh." Jiang Xia nodded.
Seeing that Li Yunqing did not respond, Jiang Xia asked, "What? That's the end?"
Li Yunqing's face turned red, and he naturally understood what Jiang Xia meant. According to the agreement, if Li Yunqing lost, he had to kneel on the ground and kowtowed three times and shouted, "I'm convinced." Li Yunqing naturally had difficulty accepting this condition. If he really did, he would probably never think of raising his head in the capital again in this life.
Li Yunqing said awkwardly: "Can you...can you change the conditions? This is really...it's really a bit insulting."
"I'm humiliating you, I'm willing to accept the loss. If I lose, will you let me go?" Jiang Xia simply pointed to the ground and said, "Do you kneel down?"
As he said that, Jiang Xia raised the steel knife in his right hand slightly. Only then did Li Yunqing remember that this guy was not only a scholar, but also a reckless man who used his knife at any time. Haven't you seen that guy who kept kowtowing and admits his mistakes had fainted now?
Li Yunqing gritted his teeth. When he was about to kneel down, a man in white next to him helped him. The man shook the folding fan very casually, and three big words "Sun Mowen" were written on the fan.
Li Yunqing turned his head and looked at Sun Mowen, and shouted: "Brother Sun."
Sun Mowen nodded slightly and bowed to Jiang Xia and said, "This brother, Brother Yun Qing really lost to you just now. Logically speaking, he should have fulfilled the bet. But I have a reluctant request, and I hope Brother Tai can agree."
"You said it was a reluctant request. The meaning of this word is an unreasonable request. Since you know that it is an unreasonable request that you are embarrassed to make. You still hope that I will agree, you are very shameless."
"You..." Sun Mowen's face turned red. He didn't expect that Jiang Xia was a mosquito, and he could bite it with just a slit. His "unkind request" just now was just a polite word, but he never thought that Jiang Xia would be caught was a sarcasm.
The Imperial College Supervisors standing behind Jiang Xia laughed out loud.
At this moment, a scream erupted from the onlookers, "Come on Mo Wen, we support you." "Come on Mo Wen, we like your poems so much, come on." "Come on Mo Wen, you are so handsome..."
Jiang Xia looked around and shouted in her heart: "Nani? This guy who looks like a stick has fans? Forget it, he has fans, but he still has... female fans?"
Jiang Xia sorted out his hairstyle, raised his chin slightly behind his hands, and he looked at the sky with a slant of forty-five degrees, and said pretentiously: "What a shameful request, please tell me."
Sun Mowen waved to that kind of fan first, and this action once again triggered a series of screams. Then Sun Mowen said gracefully: "I want to have another bet with my brother. If I lose, I kneel down with Brother Yunqing and shout 'I am convinced'. If Brother Yuntai loses, I will not ask my brother to kneel down. I just hope that Brother Yunqing can avoid Brother Yunqing's bet, and shout three times at the same time, how about it?"
"You will take advantage of it. If I win, I just won an extra bet. If I lose, not only will I have to output a bet, but I also have to say three more 'I'm convinced'. Your family is from a landlord, right? Is your father called Zhou Papi? Oh, no, Li Papi."
Sun Mowen blushed. According to Jiang Xia, this was indeed not very fair to Jiang Xia. He was about to change his bet, but Jiang Xia waved his hand and said, "Forget it, our Imperial College is not as good as you small academies. How can we compare to each other? Let's draw a series of things."
Sun Mowen thought for a while and said, "In this way, we ask the seven girls present to come out and write seven questions respectively, and then one of you and me will choose one question at will. Both parties will make poems according to the question within seven steps, and then let everyone judge the pros and cons of the poems. How about it?"
Jiang Xia didn't bother him too much, nodded and said, "Okay, I'll follow you."
Sun Mowen smiled, turned around and bowed to the direction where the girls were most among the onlookers and said, "I want to invite seven girls."
"I..." "Mo Wen, choose me..." "Mo Wen, can you write down the poems you have made in a while for me to collect?"
Seeing Sun Mowen showing off so much, Jiang Xia said in his heart: "Now let you be arrogant for a while, wait and see how I slap you in the face. Compare poetry with a time traveler. Isn't that an old birthday star hanging himself, and he thinks he has a long life?"
After a while, Sun Mowen picked out seven girls, and then the seven of them wrote down a topic and folded it.
Then Sun Mowen and Jiang Xia refused for a while, and finally Sun Mowen picked a question. After expanding it, the question was very simple: "Peach Blossom."
Sun Mowen looked at Jiang Xia and smiled and said, "Brother, do you have any objections to this topic? If not, then what should we do?"
"Yes." Jiang Xia nodded.
Sun Mowen nodded, shook the folding fan and walked a few steps before bowing to Jiang Xia, "Brother, let's show off my ugly face first."
Sun Mowen opened his mouth and recited: "Thousand-leaf peach blossoms are better than hundreds of flowers, and the lonely spring is strong and soft to the years. If you are a disciple of Qin, you will be proud of the old couple in Heyuan."
"Okay!" As soon as Sun Mowen's poem was read out, the people from Xun Wenshu Club around him immediately applauded, and Sun Mowen's "fans" even more applauded.
Even Jiang Xia had to admit that Sun Mowen had two skills.
It is not easy to write poems in a short period of time. The key is that he can also pretend to be a B while writing poems, which makes Jiang Xia even more amazed.
The first two lines of Sun Mowen's poem just now roughly mean that he was too outstanding and not understood by outsiders, while the last two lines mean that he wanted to retire to the mountains and forests and no longer care about the troubles of the world.
It is obvious that this is "hidden between ACs and not abruptly", and it is a good show. No matter how you look at him, Sun Mowen doesn't want to be such a noble and honest person.
However, Sun Mowen's strong strength made the people of the Imperial College worry. They were afraid that Jiang Xia would not be able to deal with it, and hoped that Jiang Xia could once again break out to defeat Sun Mowen.
After reading the poem, Sun Mowen waved his hand to stop the call of his "fans", and then said to Jiang Xia very gracefully: "How about brothers? If you feel that you haven't thought about it yet, I can give me more time."
Jiang Xia looked at Sun Mowen and smiled slightly, shook her head and said, "I'm sorry, I'm afraid I'm going to disappoint you. I have also written a poem and ask Brother Sun for advice."
