Chapter 11: The King of Kings (II)

The candlelight is yellow, the best position by the window on the second floor of the Miaoge Building, the ancient table has been divided into the guest of honor to sit down, a table of dishes with excellent color makes people appetize, and this table of "Longteng Rich Banquet" alone is worth a lot of money. Even more appealing than the dishes, however, is the gambling battle that is about to unfold.

Although the diners around them were silent, they all craned their necks and pricked up their ears, paying attention to every move here.

The huge round table that can seat twelve people only sat seven people at this time, Lan Qingzhu naturally sat down in the main seat, Li Ziyou, Duan Chun, Zhang Xu and Chang Zijing sat on the left and right, and only Tang An and Cheng Caihe sat on the opposite side, which looked a little miserable.

The tables rotate and the waiters bring good wine to the guests. Lan Qingzhu raised his glass and smiled: "Guessing a riddle is such an interesting thing, how can it not be accompanied by wine?" Cheng nerd, drink this glass of wine first, and treat it as my son to give you courage. ”

"Some people are not afraid of the wind and flash their tongues." Cheng Caihe glanced at him mockingly, but he still drank all the wine in the cup, attached it to Tang An's ear, and asked a little shortly: "Brother Tang, are you really confident that you can win this guy?" ”

Tang An sighed secretly, this nerd really can't hold up the wall, whether he is confident or not, this gambling battle is already ready to be launched, rather than worrying about the sky, it is better to cheer up. smiled: "It's a trivial matter, not enough to worry about." ”

Arrogant enough! I like it though. Cheng Caihe saw that Tang An was so confident, as if he had taken a reassuring pill, and said a little willingly: "Okay, then let's beat them up!" ”

Lan Qingzhu saw the small movements of the two of them, smiled indifferently, and said, "Are you scared?" If it's too late to quit now, lest someone say that this son is not victorious. ”

There is a kind of nerd, even if he knows that there is a trap in front of him, but as long as the other party is a little excited, he will still be eager to jump in, Cheng Caihe is undoubtedly this kind of person.

As soon as he heard this, the fat man slapped the dish that was about to go into his mouth on the table, and said loudly: "Bah, will Lao Tzu be afraid? I'm afraid that you won't even recognize your dad if you lose! ”

Li Ziyou next to him smiled slightly, and said to Lan Qingzhu: "Lan Shao, since Cheng Gongzi is so confident, why don't you let me take the lead and play a trick to make everyone laugh, I don't know if it's okay?" ”

Lan Qingzhu waved his hand generously and said, "Why not!" ”

Li Ziyou got the signal, immediately rolled his eyes, and said with a smile: "Cheng Shao, please listen, the puzzle below is: if Lan Shao wants to win Cheng Shao, it can be described as 'heavy pen and strong ink'."

I slapped a fart without a trace, a good dog. Tang An secretly slandered himself. turned his head to look at Cheng Caihe, but saw that he pondered for a while, and suddenly like a deflated ball, he completely lost the demeanor he had when he shouted just now, and obviously couldn't think of an answer.

The pen is not heavy, and the ink is not thick, and this first question seems to be related to the book and ink. It's just that the scope of the book and ink is wide, but it makes people have no idea where to start.

Cheng Caihe thought about it for a long time to no avail, but he couldn't admit defeat and surrender without saying a word, right? Gritting his teeth, he said cautiously, "Don't push too hard?" ”

Don't push too hard? You can figure it out! This idiot, you are Sister Yao! Tang An shook his head, and even the spectators in the distance sighed, knowing that this answer was obviously wrong.

"Hahaha!" Lan Qingzhu slapped the table and laughed, almost laughing out of tears. "Cheng nerd, is this your answer?"

"This" Cheng Caihe said with a spitting out, glancing at Tang An as if asking for help.

Tang An knew that it was time to go out by himself, coughed, and said loudly: "Of course not, Brother Cheng thinks this topic is too simple, and he is just joking with you." I don't know which fool came up with such a mentally retarded question, and it is simply an insult to ask Brother Cheng Chrysostom to answer such a question! Don't talk about others, even I, a layman who doesn't know the Three Principles and Five Constants, can't stand it! ”

Tang An said "indignantly", glanced at Cheng Caihe again, and said: "Brother Cheng, I know that you are an elegant person, and you don't care to answer such low-level questions, so it's better to let the little brother go out and teach these frogs at the bottom of the well who don't know the height of the sky and the height of the earth a lesson!" ”

This kid is too good! It doesn't matter if he can answer it or not, just hearing this is comfortable. Cheng Caihe raised his head very cooperatively, and said with a look of "disdain": "Okay, it's up to you to tell them." ”

Li Ziyou's nose is crooked, what is mentally retarded? I've been thinking about it for a long time! snorted coldly and said, "Don't talk about it first, you won't be able to answer it when the time comes." ”

Tang An said indifferently: "The pen is heavy, and the ink is thick, isn't it 'understatement'?" It seems that Lan Gongzi wants to win Cheng Gongzi, but he has to work harder, don't send some shrimp soldiers and crabs to come up with some pediatric questions, it's really a waste of time. ”

As soon as he heard this, Li Ziyou's face immediately turned to ashes. This beggar, how could he possibly think of the answer?

Everyone on the second floor pondered for a while, and naturally understood the meaning, and secretly called it wonderful, knowing that Cheng Caihe had won this time. And Tang An not only answered the question correctly, but also mocked Lan Qingzhu, which can be described as extremely ruthless.

Cheng Cai and the hands under the table were happily clenched, and the two fat feet were even more excited to toss and turn on the ground, but their faces were still silent, and they said indifferently: "That's it, Brother Tang can't deceive people too much." ”

This fat man, when it comes to shameless kung fu, is not under me! Tang An scolded secretly, but said on the surface: "Victory is not arrogant, convince people with virtue, Brother Cheng is a true gentleman, Tang is ashamed." ”

Seeing the two of them singing and harmonizing, Lan Qingzhu was so angry that he almost vomited blood, and waited for Li Ziyou with annoyance, and said, "This is just the first question, don't be too happy!" Zhang Xu, didn't you want to talk to Cheng Gongzi for a long time? ”

That Zhang Xu suddenly said loudly: "Cheng Gongzi is invited." This Bianjing City is my Tang Dynasty Imperial City, and I will take the word "Emperor" as the title and play an idiom. ”

After listening to this question, Lan Qingzhu's heart calculation was put into his stomach. One-word puzzles are often the most untraceable and the most frustrating. With this nerd's belly of straw bales, I definitely can't guess.

After listening to the question, everyone also lowered their heads and pondered, but this topic is indeed knowledgeable, and everyone thought for a long time, and most of them still shook their heads and sighed.

It turns out that Lan Qingzhu does know Cheng Caihe. As soon as he heard this question, Cheng Caihe's image of a virtuous son he had just created was immediately ruined, and he made an embarrassed face and looked at Tang An pitifully.

Tang An secretly hated the fat man for being useless, drank all the wine in his hand, delayed for a moment, and dismantled the word "emperor" countless times in his mind.

"How's that, can you figure it out?" Lan Qingzhu said jokingly, "If you can't say the answer, say it earlier, don't delay everyone drinking and talking." ”

Tang An's eyes wandered, and he suddenly saw a decorative white jade Guanyin at the entrance of the staircase, and immediately a flash of inspiration flashed in his mind, and he already had an answer. Pointing to the Guanyin, he said, "The answer to this question is on this Guanyin statue." ”

Everyone looked at his hand, and they were a little confused: what people asked about the idiom of the metaphor of the word "emperor", what is the connection with this Guanyin statue? Only Zhang Xu looked incredulous, as if he had a premonition that he had lost.

That Cheng Caihe got the hint, and hurriedly patted his thigh and said: "Yes, the answer is 'Guanyin Bodhisattva'!" ”

Tang An glared at the mouthy fat man reproachfully, and said, "Brother Cheng is really funny, but since Lan Gongzi has already lost, don't laugh at others anymore." The answer is actually - white jade is flawless! ”

Everyone thought for a while, and already knew the mystery, and looked at Tang An's eyes full of admiration.

If the jade word goes a little, isn't it a king word, and the white jade is flawless, isn't it the word "emperor"? This kid is really amazing! Only Cheng Caihe made a big red face, sneered shyly, and couldn't wait to find a crack in the ground to get into.

"Impossible! How did you guess? Zhang Xu hissed.

"This brother is really ridiculous, some people guess the riddle, and someone should solve the riddle. What's the point if the puzzle is unsolvable? Tang An smiled indifferently.

After losing two battles in a row, Lan Qingzhu couldn't hold his face, Tie Qing looked at Tang An with a blue face, and for the first time began to look at this beggar-looking young man, and asked coldly: "Who are you!" ”

"I forgot to introduce myself, my surname is Tang, my single name is An, and he is an unknown talent in the poor countryside, which is really not worth mentioning." Tang An got up and clenched his fists, and said to everyone with a smile, "But since I was a child, I love to solve riddles and suspicions, and the villagers in ten miles and eight towns show love, but I have given a nickname to the people, called - the king of kings!" ”
