Chapter 140: The Last Question—Eternal Absolute
In the first game, Ye Chen's red side won.
In this rush to answer the question, it was full of fun. There are a lot of Mid-Autumn Festival lantern riddles that the audience watched in the clouds, I don't know what it means, and when the guests answered it, the audience thought, oh, I see, and suddenly realized. In this way, the back and forth, coupled with the fierce competition of the guests, the audience also watched it with relish.
The second game, the couplet, begins.
"Half past two in the middle of the night!" The first couplet.
Couplets are not as simple as guessing lantern riddles, not only need to take into account the neatness of the battle, but also need to take into account the relevant context rhyme.
However, the first couplet didn't come out for more than ten seconds, and the red side answered first, and the answer was a middle-aged man, an essayist in China, named Mo Fei.
"Mid-Autumn Festival Month 8!" Mo Fei's answer was full of confidence.
"Good!"
"It's just in time for the Mid-Autumn Festival, it's the right time!"
This person put the first couplet out, which is very in line with the theme of the Mid-Autumn Festival, and attracted a lot of applause from the guests. Mo Fei said a few words modestly and smiled.
Next, the second couplet came out.
"Guizi falls from the golden toad"
This couplet is another article on the topic of "Mid-Autumn Festival", "Jin Toad" and "Guizi" are taken from "Toad Palace Zhegui", representing the meaning of a splendid future, and the meaning of Mid-Autumn Festival.
This is linked, and what is surprising is that a celebrity guest pressed the answer button.
"The sound of the waves is coming together with the white waves", the celebrity guest gave the answer, and the correct answer was very fair, although he failed to point the question, but it was also right.
The second game continued, and when it was the turn of the tenth couplet, the red side had already answered five ways, and the blue side only had four, and now the guests on the blue side had an extra sense of tension in their hearts, if the tenth couplet was won by the red side, they would have become two losses, even if the third link of the fight poem won, they still lost.
Although it is just a game competition to participate in the show, the people who participate in the competition will more or less have the desire to win. No one wants to lose.
The tenth couplet comes out.
"Mid-Autumn Festival and Mid-Autumn Festival account for gossip, dry gossip, Kun gossip, hexagram eight-sided exquisite."
This couplet is a long and short couplet. It is a difficult type.
As soon as this couplet came out, all the guests began to think about it, and the audience also thought about it.
This time, a full two minutes passed, and the answering bell rang in the guest seat, and the blue guests felt nervous. Look at which side turned on the light, and what made them feel slightly relieved was that it was their side.
Ye Chen, who had been playing soy sauce in the guest seat, looked at who was answering and found that it was the old Mr. Qi Shi who had chatted with him a few words.
The host asked Mr. Qi Shi about his next link.
Mr. Qi Shi said the next link with a little ink on his chest.
"Ninety-nine double yang ascends nine, upper nine, lower nine, heavy nine clouds"
As soon as this couplet came out, it immediately caused a round of applause on and off the stage, and the Mid-Autumn Festival was against Chongyang. Eight against nine, up and down against Qiankun, very neat.
After the guests spoke and praised Mr. Qi Shi, the question came, and now the two sides answered five questions correctly, showing the trend of power and enemy, and the next one will be decided. If the next question is answered by Red, the game is lost. Although the twenty guests on the blue side couldn't see anything on the surface, they were already tense in their hearts.
At this time, plus the host came out to render the atmosphere. "Now in the second game, the red and blue sides of the couplet each answered five questions correctly, showing an average trend, so the next question is the key. Now look at the big screen! ”
"The last question, of course, is the hardest. On the screen are three eternal absolutes, handed down from history, although there are many historical masters out of the next couplet, but it is not perfect, so it is called the eternal absolute. Then then, as long as the two guests are within five minutes. You can choose any of the three eternal absolutes to give a better lower link than other guests, even if which side wins the game! “
The program team understands that the last question is three eternal absolutes, and no one in the future can match the perfect downlink, so they changed the way of answering the question, the time limit is five minutes, as long as the two sides take out the lower link is better than the other party, which side wins.
The male host passionately explained the rules of the last question on the stage, and the guests on the stage all looked at the three eternal absolutes on the screen seriously, and the atmosphere became a little tense.
"Smoke lock pond willow"
"A cup of tea quenches the thirst of the yuan"
"The moon is bright, and the moon is bright in August"
"The five-minute countdown begins!"
The host announced the start, and the guests on the stage began to have their brains racing, especially those in the literary world, who seemed very focused.
The audience at the scene and in front of the TV was also whetted by this last question.
"Squeak!" The time had not yet passed a minute, and to everyone's surprise, someone on the red side quickly rushed to answer.
Many guests looked sideways, and at a glance, it was Murong Chuan, a poet who became famous for his love poetry in China, and his works "Moon Song" and "Mandarin Duck" have a certain status in today's poetry circle.
Even the host was surprised, because the previous difficult couplets had to wait a minute or two for someone to answer, but before they could wait a minute, they were answered by Murong Chuan.
The moderator asked curiously, and asked which pair of links the other party was going to.
Murong Chuan, who was on the guest seat, was a man in his thirties, in his prime, although his appearance was ordinary, he had the temperament of a poet.
"The upper link I want to be right about is" Smoke lock pond willow. Murong Chuan felt everyone's attention, and felt a little proud in his heart, and seemed to smile confidently.
Almost all of the literary people here are seniors who have been gnawing books for decades, and he didn't interfere in the charades and couplets just now, so he didn't have the opportunity to show himself, and went to the cold bench. Unexpectedly, the eternal "smoke lock pond willow" of this last question made him run into it, because not long ago, when he and a few friends in the poetry circle 'danced and wrote", he happened to discuss the poems of the Qing Dynasty emperor Qianlong. A friend mentioned by the way an allusion to Qianlong and the eternal absolute "smoke lock pond willow".
During the Qianlong period, there was an opening examination, and the two candidates stood out, and it was difficult to distinguish between them. The examiner presented the test paper to Qianlong for approval. After reading it, Qianlong said: "I will ask a pair of questions tomorrow, and the two lives will continue, and the right one will be the champion." In the morning, Qianlong saw that the wind in the West Lake was blowing the weeping willows and the smoke was blowing, so he wrote: "The smoke locks the pond willows". The second examinee raised his eyes and looked, and A turned away in shock. As a result, Jiasheng was appointed as the champion. People don't understand the reason, Qianlong said: "Lian is absolute; Who can continue? He can determine in an instant, and his talent must be high!" It turned out to be five words. The words are embedded in the five lines, and the connotation is "gold, wood, water, fire and earth" five elements, and the artistic conception is very wonderful. To continue this pair, the five elements are also needed. This is anything but ordinary.
Several people discussed this allusion, and then shifted the topic to the absolute link of "smoke lock pond willow". Several people had a whimsical interest and discussed the law of the next link.
In the end, discussions came and went, and Murong Chuan changed and changed several times. By the way, "Beacon Plug Desert Elm" has been praised by several people.
This is also the reason why Murong Chuan pressed the answer button so quickly.
"My next link is -- the smoke locks the pond willows, and the beacon sells the desert elms." Murong Chuan gave the answer with a smile on his face.
As soon as this couplet came out, many people's eyes lit up, and the guests on the red side applauded, and this couplet happened to be on the side of the five shapes of water, wood, water, fire, and earth of the "smoke lock pond willow", and the structure was exquisite.
Many guests couldn't help but glance at Murong Chuan, it was unusual to be able to think of such a delicate link in such a short time.
Hearing the praise of many seniors in the literary world, Murong Chuan felt comfortable in his heart. This time, the blind cat ran into a dead mouse, which made him show his face.
At this time, whether it was those stars or literary masters in the blue side guest seat, they were thinking hard about it, and they hadn't come up with a link yet.
More than half of the time has passed.
At this time, Ye Chen, who was sitting in the guest seat of the Blue Side, was muttering the absolute sentence "Smoke lock pond willows".
"So familiar!" When Ye Chen saw this couplet at first glance, a flash of inspiration flashed in his mind, and he felt very familiar. He rummaged through it in his mind, and finally thought of the most suitable one for the Qianlong Emperor.
This lower link was paired by the modern people of the world where Ye Chen was originally located, and it was the right of a certain tourist when he was visiting Haicheng Tower. And this parallel world naturally does not have this downlink.
"There's only one minute left!" The host reminded the time, "If the blue guest can't come out." This is a win for Red. “
And some of the literary masters on the Blue Fang side have actually thought of a pair of lower couplets in the triptych, but because of Murong Chuan's "Beacon Plug Waiyu" in front, they thought that the right one was not as good as the other party, so they didn't take it out. It's not that they can't do it, it's that five minutes is too short, after all, these three are too fast.
Not to mention the celebrity guests on the Blue Side. Singing and acting are their forte, making their couplets seem stretched.
At this time, Murong Chuan felt a little proud in his heart, this feeling of "dominating the leader" by one person is very good, especially in front of so many well-known people, even if he picked up a big bargain.
Everyone has vanity, and being a poet is not exempt from vulgarity.
Just when the audience thought that the blue guest was going to lose the game, and the host counted down to thirty seconds, "squeak", and the blue side sounded the keybell.
The atmosphere was instantly tightened.
Everyone looked sideways at the blue guest seat, and it was a young man who rang the bell, it was Ye Chen.
"Mr. Ye has one of the three downlinks?" The host came to the spirit and spoke.
"Yes!"
In the last few tens of seconds, Ye Chen pressed the answer button, maybe everyone wanted to see a sudden reversal of the defeat, and the audience all mentioned their feelings at once, looking at Ye Chen, looking forward to seeing a wonderful reply.
When the poet Murong Chuan saw this scene, he sighed in his heart, if he could win this key point by himself, the natural scenery. Unexpectedly, in the last few tens of seconds of this crucial moment, he was unhappy to bite the gold halfway, and it was this guy named Ye Chen, you must know that he still has some disdain in his heart for the fact that the other party can become the first in the number of votes in the literary and artistic circles. You must know that the literary world has always paid attention to talking about seniority, in his opinion, this Ye Chen is not a real literati when he makes movies and writes popular novels, but he is only favored by the public, and he cannot enter the eyes of real literary people.
He thought about it in his heart, and sneered, he just took a look at what this Ye Chen could do! He can tell."
At this time, Ye Chen said his next link.
"My next link is - smoke lock pond willow, cannon town sea city tower."
As soon as this lower couplet was spoken, everyone present felt that this lower couplet was better than the "beacon and salty desert poplar" just now.
"Wonderful!" Old Mr. Qi Shi on the blue side couldn't help but stroke his palm and praise it.
The absolute difficulty of "smoke lock pond willow" is not only because the five characters contain the five elements of gold, wood, water, fire and earth, and each word corresponding to each word must correspond to the side of the five elements, which is aligned with each other, and the artistic conception of the picture contained in it is very rich.
"Smoke Lock Pond Willow" shows a kind of gentleness of a water town in the south of the Yangtze River, and Ye Chen's "Cannon Town Haicheng Tower" corresponds to it, showing a sense of solemnity and solemnity, which is a little more than "Beacon Salt Plug Desert Elm", and it is even more even.
Most of the audience did not understand the subtlety of the couplet, but this "Paozhen Haicheng Tower" and the upper couplet were read up, and they had more of an appetite.
The audience shouted "Blue wins" and coaxed, so that the red and blue sides each drew a game, and the third link of the poetry fight was even more exciting and worth looking forward to
On the Red side, one scholar said that "Haichenglou" is a unique scenic name, which does not match the ubiquitous landscape image of "pond willows".
Mr. Qi Shi on the blue side stood up and spoke, and the couplet paid more attention to the artistic conception, and this small flaw didn't matter.
In the case where the majority of people expressed their opinion in favor of "running the town of Haichenglou", the game was decided to be won by the blue side.
When the host announced the results of the second round, Murong Chuan on the red side felt a little embarrassed. He glanced at Ye Chen meaningfully, not knowing what to think.
Next, it was the final round that decided the outcome - Dou Shi, and the enthusiasm of the audience reached the highest. (To be continued.) )
