After dealing with the affairs of Division Jiafang, Ouyang Shuo returned to the study and logged off on time.
In reality, it happens to be the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, the Spring Festival holiday is coming to an end, and office workers have already started to work as early as the eighth day of the lunar new year. Starting tomorrow, schools will also reopen one after another. Throughout the winter vacation, Binger slept in late every day, served delicious food and drinks, and her little face became more plump and cute.
Yesterday Sun Xiaoyue called and said that she would go back to Jiaozhou today and spend the Lantern Festival with them. Ouyang Shuo specially bought a lot of vegetables from the supermarket, preparing to cook a big meal at night.
At three o'clock in the afternoon, Sun Xiaoyue arrived home on time and brought many special products from her hometown. It's been a long time since we saw each other, so naturally we exchanged pleasantries. Bing'er, a girl, was extremely attached to Sun Xiaoyue, and presented the gift she bought at the temple fair last time like a treasure, and then introduced her new playmate, Xue'er, to Sister Xiaoyue.
Sun Xiaoyue was very surprised when she saw Xue'er. She knew this artificial intelligence pet, so she knew it was worth a lot. She turned around and glanced at Ouyang Shuo, she didn't expect this elder brother to be so rich. Quietly, buy such an extravagant gift.
She couldn't see through Ouyang Shuo more and more. This man who didn't do his job all day long and knew how to play games all day long seemed to be covered with a veil of mystery, making it impossible for people to see through.
Back home this time, her grandfather, an academician of the Chinese Academy of Sciences and a well-known ship design expert in the Federation, even quietly mentioned the game "Earth Online" to her. When she told her grandfather what she had learned, his grandfather encouraged her to play this game just like Ouyang Shuo. When she returned to Jiaozhou this time, she had already booked the game cabin online, and it would be delivered tomorrow.
"Sister, why are you ignoring Binger?" Binger on the side pouted and said aggrievedly.
Sun Xiaoyue was taken aback for a moment, she was stupefied just now, she put Binger aside, and quickly coaxed: "Ah, haha, my sister is so surprised that Xueer is so cute, she can't speak."
"That's right, hee hee, Bing'er thinks so too, she's as cute as Bing'er."
"I don't know how to be ashamed, how can I praise myself like this."
"Sister~~~" The little girl refused immediately, threw herself into Sun Xiaoyue's arms, twisting and turning.
Ouyang Shuo watched them playing in the living room, and thought of Song Jia for no reason. Since the class reunion on the fourth day of junior high school, he and Song Jia still kept in touch, and they had a phone call or two from time to time. For Song Jia's feelings, I am not sure, classmate, friend or confidante? What a mess.
After dinner, Sun Xiaoyue said with a smile: "Hey, I will also play "Earth Online" starting tomorrow, do you have any advice?"
Ouyang Shuo was startled, "Why did you suddenly become enlightened? Wasn't it quite determined before!"
"Hmph, who knows, you guys are all so secretive, it was my grandpa who suggested me to play."
"Your grandfather?"
"Yeah, he is an expert in ship design from the Federation. He didn't know where he got the news from, and he didn't explain to me. He just asked me to play this game. The money for buying the game cabin this time was funded by his old man. "Sun Xiaoyue said carelessly.
Ouyang Shuo nodded. In other words, the truth behind the game has gradually penetrated from the big forces to the medium-sized forces. Soon, the game will usher in a large number of new players. "I told you before that this game is divided into lord mode and adventure mode, which one are you going to choose?"
Sun Xiaoyue didn't even think about it, "Of course it's the adventure mode. I can't play the lord mode you mentioned."
"Adventure mode is also divided into combat occupations and life occupations. Do you want me to introduce it?" Ouyang Shuo did not interfere with Sun Xiaoyue's choice.
"No need, I've already checked it on the forum. I don't like fighting and killing, and I'm going to choose a life profession. But even if it's a life profession, there are too many types, and I don't know which one to choose."
Ouyang Shuo's heart moved, and he said calmly: "As for life-related occupations, I think architect is very suitable for you, and it also fits well with your current major. You don't know, this game is very real. The teacher association has a lot of room for development, and you can just show off what you have learned.”
"Ah, why didn't I think of that? Well, I'll follow your lead and choose an architect. By the way, tell me your ID, so I can contact you after you log in to the game." Sun Xiaoyue followed suit.
Ouyang Shuo had a look of embarrassment on his face, so he knew she would ask this, "Well, I don't know how to explain it to you now. Anyway, I can't tell you my ID yet. If you trust me, set the place of birth in Dali Anyway, one of us is an adventure player and the other is a lord player, and there will be no intersection for the time being. When it is appropriate, I will give you a convincing explanation."
It's not that Ouyang Shuo doesn't trust Sun Xiaoyue, but that his identity is too sensitive and he has to be cautious. If Sun Xiaoyue slipped her mouth inadvertently, it would be a big trouble, not only him, but even Binger would be implicated, this is not what he wants to see.
Sun Xiaoyue pursed her mouth, and said dissatisfiedly: "If you don't say it, you don't say it, what, it's mysterious."
Ouyang Shuo was speechless, and the atmosphere was a bit awkward.
"By the way, you don't have to worry about Bing'er. I'm not a game freak like you. I don't log in to the game so early every day." Before returning to the room, Sun Xiaoyue said with a smile.
Ouyang Shuo nodded, turned around and went back to his room to log in to the game.
In the afternoon, all kinds of lanterns had been hung all over the streets and alleys of Shanhai Town. Business-minded shops have launched promotional activities one after another, hanging lanterns in front of the shops, as long as they answer the lantern riddles correctly, there will be rewards.
After dinner, this girl Qing'er will take Ouyang Shuo to enjoy the lanterns and guess lantern riddles.
Ouyang Shuo knew how much he weighed, and guessing lantern riddles was a difficult job. In order not to make a fool of himself, he simply pulled Fan Zhongyan, Tian Wenjing, Xu Shuda, Su Ze, and Zhou Haichen together.
Good lantern riddles are all concentrated on the commercial street. With those simple lantern riddles, Ouyang Shuo could guess one or two. For example, "Half of Spring and Autumn, type one character", Chun and Autumn each take half, of course it is a character of Qin. "Half plowing and half reading, type one character", half of plowing and half of reading are taken, which is a word of speech.
The more difficult ones are like "Go and come again in the wind, the geese walk obliquely in front of the peak, and type the two-character flower name", remove the remaining part of the wind, and then enter it again to become a phoenix; in front of the peak is a mountain, the pictographic herringbone of geese walking, If the character is slanted, it will become a single person, and if the geese are slanting in front of the peak, it will become a character for immortals. So the answer is "Impatiens".
"Brother, what is the answer to this riddle?" Qing'er pointed to a lantern riddle and asked.
Ouyang Shuo looked up: he split rocks and moved mountains, built fields and planted willows, and gave them a nickname. He knocked on Qing'er's head, and said with a smile: "I can't even guess it so simple. Split the rock up and down and remove the mountain characters to leave the stone characters. Zhu Tianzhi Liu means to add a field character under the willow, and make a little effort. Transformation is the word for pomegranate, so the answer to the riddle is pomegranate."
Qing'er looked at her little head and said pitifully: "I just can't guess it!" Reluctantly pointing to another lantern riddle, he said: "What about this one? Light the shadow of the moon on the branch and type a word."
This one is a bit difficult, Ouyang Shuo had an idea, and said with a smile: "There are no rules, why don't I guess it alone, and leave this lantern riddle to Mr. Su Ze."
Su Ze said with a smile: "The head of a branch is wood, dots add two dots to the wood to form a rice character, the crescent moon means to remove the part of the moon character to form a bow character, and the shadow means a bow to form a pair. Porridge word."
When passing by the grocery store, a lantern riddle hung in front of the store attracted a large number of tourists, and there were many discussions, but no one could guess the answer. Now, even Fan Zhongyan and Tian Wenjing were interested.
Seeing Ouyang Shuo and his party, everyone consciously moved out of the way, only to see the lantern riddles written: yellow silk, young woman, grandson, 齑jiu, play an idiom.
At Ouyang Shuo's level, it was completely blurry. On the contrary, Fan Zhongyan and Xu Shuda looked at each other and smiled, obviously they had already guessed the answer.
"Why don't you two write out the answers together to see if they agree?" Ouyang Shuo joked.
The two nodded, took the pen and paper handed over by the grocery store, and quickly wrote down the answer. Take a closer look, both sides wrote "excellent words".
Xu Shuda said with a smile: "Let me explain. Yellow silk refers to colored silk fabrics, which are combined into Juezi. Young women are girls, so guess the wonderful characters; grandsons are the sons of daughters, so guess the characters better; , that is, the utensils for holding and grinding ginger, garlic, leeks and other seasonings, it receives spicy things every day, so it is Ci. Therefore, the answer to the riddle is excellent Ci."
After listening to the explanation, the tourists around were suddenly enlightened and applauded. The grocery store sent a prize in a playful way, which is an exquisite shadow gauze lamp, made of various colors of linen gauze, painted with flowers, birds, insects, fish, landscapes and pavilions, and decorated with golden cloud patterns and tassels of various colors.
Naturally, Fan Xu and Xu would not be walking around the street with a lantern, and it ended up in Qing'er's hands.
When passing the martial arts hall, Tian Wenjing also guessed a lantern riddle for fun: two people looked up and couldn't see the sky, and ten girls skillfully planted half an acre of land. The Eight Kings asked me how much the field was? There are one thousand fields on the soil. Type an idiom.
Qing'er was not good at guessing lantern riddles, but she was very active in asking questions, and said with a smile, "Mr. Yang Guang, how do you solve this riddle?"
Tian Wenjing said with a smile: "When two people look up and don't see the sky, it's the word for husband. Ten daughters skillfully planted half an acre of land is the word for wife. The eight kings asked me how much the field is. Righteousness, I hope every family in the world can be like this."
The most difficult lantern riddle was prepared by Xu Shuda himself, and it was hung on the square in front of the lord's mansion: the beautiful woman pretended to be drunk and asked someone to help her, revealing her snow-white chest. Walking into the embroidered curtain, I can't find him, let him be full of wind and rain.
In the end, Fan Zhongyan guessed it, and said with a smile: "The first sentence of a beautiful woman pretends to be drunk and asks someone to help her, and the homonym Yanyi is false, and then the homonym is Jia Dao; the second sentence reveals the white snow on the chest. The homonym is Li Bai; the third sentence can't be found when you walk into the embroidered curtain, and the embroidered curtain is similar to the Luo tent, so the meaning is Luo Yin; the last four sentences, let him be full of wind and rain, mean Pan Lang, and then it is the homonym Pan Lang. Li Bai , Jia Dao, Luo Yin, and Pan Lang are all famous poets of the Tang Dynasty."
After admiring the lanterns and guessing the lantern riddles, it was already eight o'clock in the night, so Ouyang Shuo hurriedly logged off.
