The boy's explanation was very clear. The one-person-one-vote system is implemented here. If Li Yi wants to bring Xiaohuan in together, he has to guess another lantern riddle.
The matter of money is important, so naturally we can't break other people's rules.
Li Yi walked back in front of those lanterns again, and there seemed to be an invisible aura around him, and everyone around there gave way one after another.
"Oolong on the wall, wearing ten thousand gold stars."
Apart from this sentence, there is still no explanation. Everyone has guessed for a long time, but they have not guessed the answer.
At this time, almost everyone's eyes were on Li Yi.
Of course, more people have a mentality of watching jokes.
The first time may have been a coincidence, but the second time, did he still have the good luck just now
After a while, Li Yi spoke again: "The answer to this lantern riddle is 'steel scale'."
With a complete collection of ancient and modern lantern riddles in hand, what other lantern riddles can't be guessed by him
"Congratulations, son! Now you can bring this girl in." The next move of the servant proved that Li Yi gave the correct answer.
After Li Yi spoke, confusion appeared on the faces of several people, which soon turned into a daze.
"I see!"
"Comparing the scale beam to an oolong, then the 'scale star' is ten thousand gold stars!"
"Ashamed, ashamed, thinking that I have read so much poetry and books, but I haven't even understood two small lantern riddles, I am ashamed!"
…
…
In fact, things like guessing lantern riddles, to a certain extent, really have nothing to do with whether the literary talent is good or not, and whether the knowledge is profound or not.
It only relies on quick wit in a flash of inspiration, or the same cheating device as Li Yi.
Guys like this kind of lantern riddle guessing don't even have a scope, and there is only one sentence in there for people to guess. It's not a good thing. I'm afraid it's the intention to deliberately make things difficult for others.
At this time, the way the people around looked at Li Yi had changed.
Guessing one may be foolish, but the second one can be guessed so easily, the possibility of being blind is not great.
It can only show that the handsome scholar in front of them probably has some real skills...
Soon, Li Yi used practical actions to prove to them how correct these people's thoughts were just now.
He was already planning to bring Xiaohuan in, but when he saw the two scholars who enthusiastically introduced him just now, he suddenly felt that it was not polite to just leave, so he walked over and said to the two with a smile: " Brothers, why not go in together?"
The expressions on the faces of the two people were stunned for a moment. Before they recovered, Li Yi had already walked in front of the only two lanterns left, looked up, and read: "The moon is half under the feet of Yiyun, and the remaining flowers are falling on the horseshoes." Before... the answer to this lantern riddle... should be a word 'bear'... "
As soon as this remark came out, everyone looked at him with the eyes of a monster. How could it be seen that this is a word for "bear"!
There is absolutely no connection at all!
However, Li Yi did not stop because of the uproar of the crowd. He had already looked at the last lantern, and after a while, he spoke again: "Two rows of trees far away stand on the side of the mountain, and the boat flows horizontally with one leaf... This is also an anagram, the answer to the riddle It's the word 'Hui'."
There was no one talking around, and there was a strange look in his eyes.
It is undeniable that he has guessed all the first two lantern riddles, but the last two... what are they guessing!
The moon is half at the foot of Yiyun, and the remaining flowers are falling in front of the horse's hoof—does this poem have anything to do with the word "Xiong"
Two rows of trees far away stand on the side of the mountain, and the boat flows horizontally with one leaf—how did he figure out that this is a word for "Hui"!
However, when everyone turned their eyes away and saw the boy standing there blankly, with the expression on his face as if he had seen a ghost, their expressions gradually changed.
No—he guessed it right, right
"Several... please!"
I don't know how long it took before the boy came back to his senses, swallowed his saliva involuntarily, and respectfully made a gesture of invitation to Li Yi and the others.
He knew better than anyone else that these lantern riddles were just a gimmick created by those people to attract others. Without some hints, no one would guess it.
But the truth is...
These extremely difficult lantern riddles were all swept away by the scholar in front of him alone.
It would be fine if he solved one riddle, but he wanted to solve all the lantern riddles. This is clearly a mess!
However, with so many people staring at him, he naturally couldn't say anything about regretting it. Even though he was already shocked in his heart, he still respectfully invited Li Yi and others to enter.
At this time, those who worked hard to guess the riddle for a long time in the field could no longer describe what it was like in their hearts.
He actually guessed everything right!
For each lantern riddle, how many breaths did you think about
In contrast, what have they done in such a long time just now!
Moreover, as an ordinary person, one guess is enough, and two guesses are also forgiven, but what are you doing with so many guesses, occupying all the places, and leaving a way for others to survive!
Seeing the scholar and four people enter the restaurant, everyone looked at the lantern that had been taken down by the boy, which meant that they would never have a chance to go in again, and they wanted to cry without tears...
At this time, Li Yi Xiaohuan and the two scholars who hadn't recovered from their senses had already entered the restaurant.
"Thank you, brother!"
After the two came back to their senses, they immediately cupped their fists and thanked Li Yi.
In today's restaurant, apart from the poetry clubs that participated in the competition, other fellows were naturally invited. After all, there has never been a first in prose since ancient times. If there were only people from the poetry clubs, no one would be convinced. Tomorrow, there will be no debate about who is better. These invited people will evaluate the poems and essays made today to determine the winner.
And if it weren't for Li Yi, the two of them would not have the qualifications to enter here at all.
These scholars are always thanking and thanking, which is meaningless. After Li Yi waved his hand, he began to look at the situation in front of him.
The space inside this restaurant was much larger than he had imagined. There were about dozens of people in the lobby on the first floor alone.
On the table next to it, there are some snacks such as vegetable and fruit cakes, which look quite delicate and can be used as desserts after dinner.
Just when Li Yi was about to taste a piece of fruit and vegetables, a few steps away, a beautiful woman spread out a square scarf in her hand, and distributed the exquisite pastry on it to several women beside her, Li Yi sniffled , his expression changed suddenly, and he followed the fragrance and looked over.
"The service here is quite considerate. A maid looks so beautiful... Hey, the pastry she is holding looks delicious..." Li Yi sighed in surprise, and then quickly Walked over step by step.
The pastry was originally only a few pieces, and after being divided by those women, there were only two pieces left. Li Yi was afraid that the last two pieces would be snatched away by others, so he quickened his pace again, and walked there In front of the pretty maids, imitating those women stretched out their hands.
Seeing the slender and white palms that suddenly appeared in front of her eyes, the pretty maid's pretty face was slightly taken aback, and she looked up at Li Yi with a bewildered expression.
At the same time, the faces of the women around her also showed stunned expressions.
…
…
"Brother, you know Miss Wan?"
Not far away, the two scholars brought in by Li Yi looked at each other and murmured.
