The fact that Qin Baichuan made Shi Jun make a fool of himself on the spot has long been rumored among the three major academies, and it is reasonable that the two of them will smell of gunpowder when they suddenly talk to each other. Fang Zichang's lips of Qingfeng Academy moved, and he wanted to stop it, but it was because of Xue Shihan that he was provoked, and it was not easy for him to speak.

"Nonsense, it's nonsense!" The one sitting under Fang Zi's head was none other than the deputy academician of Qingfeng Academy, Zhu Tianyi. The old man was so angry that his beard moved, and he almost gritted his teeth and said: "This Qin Baichuan doesn't know what kind of confused soup he poured into Master Xue, but he can actually move Master Xue to intercede for him...... Hmph, I was against it at the beginning, how about it, I said yes? ”

Although Zhu Tianyi didn't name him, Fang Zichang was still not very comfortable, after all, Qin Baichuan became a guest seat, and he nodded: "Although Master Xue is young, she is not a person without proportion, and she has a reason to come." Maybe...... Qin Baichuan, Mr. Qin may be able to bring a turnaround to the academy. ”

"I hope so." Zhu Tianyi agreed in his mouth, but he didn't think so in his heart. The surname Qin is a stinky storyteller in the teahouse restaurant, even if he has read books for a few years before, how can he be compared with these masters? Expect him to bring a turnaround to the college and make a joke about Shenma International?

The more Zhu Tianyi thought about it, the more angry he became, but Qin Baichuan had already walked to the front of the stage unhurriedly, put his hands behind his back and said, "Mr. Shida, can you show me the bamboo basket?" ”

"Why not?" Shi Jun sent the bamboo basket forward, but it was not handed over to Qin Baichuan, and Qin Baichuan did not reach out to pick it up, but just watched carefully. But seeing the sunlight scattering down, penetrating the clear water in the bamboo basket, refracting colorful light, and everyone can see the little water droplets in the bamboo basket through the pores.

"Have you ever seen a clue?" Shi Jun saw Qin Baichuan smiling and said in a deep voice.

"Almost." The answer given by Qin Baichuan was ambiguous.

"Just you?" Shi Jun didn't believe that Qin Baichuan saw through his means at all, and snorted with disdain.

"Mr. Shida, I think your bamboo basket is just like the trick I saw when I was a child, I can't see through it, I can't see through it, I can't see it through, it's worthless." Qin Baichuan said with a calm demeanor.

"Oh? Listen to Mr. Qin's meaning, but the victory is in hand? Since Shi Jun took out this bamboo basket, Lu Shigao couldn't think of the mystery, and the old man's eyes lit up after hearing Qin Baichuan's words.

"There are ideas, but whether they are correct or not needs to be verified." Qin Baichuan smiled at Lu Shigao and said: "You might as well change your thinking, if there are holes in the house, it will leak rain, and the people often cover it with bamboo mats and pine tarpaulin, so that the leakage can be stopped." This bamboo basket is the same reason, if someone spreads a layer of things such as bamboo mats, pine oil cloths and the like inside the bamboo basket, how can this bamboo basket not draw water? ”

Qin Baichuan's inference is not unreasonable, it is like pasting a layer of transparent glue on the inside of a bamboo basket, and the water will definitely not leak out. But his reasoned and well-founded inference obviously didn't work in this era, and Zhu Tianyi, the vice academician of Qingfeng Academy, immediately reprimanded angrily: "Qin Baichuan, don't talk nonsense here, don't retreat quickly!" ”

"Vice Academician Zhu, Mr. Qin is a pedantic man, don't be impatient for the time being." Qin Baichuan glanced up at Zhu Tianyi, and before he could sneer at him, Lu Shigao suddenly spoke.

"Lu ......" Zhu Tianyi wanted to take the opportunity to scold Qin Baichuan, lest this guy lose the people of Qingfeng Academy, but he never expected that Lu Shigao would speak, and he actually used the words "pedantic celestial". The students in the audience were also in an uproar, but Lu Shigao ignored these and smiled at Qin Baichuan: "What Mr. Qin said seems to have some truth, but it is not. The bamboo basket is hollow, and everyone can see it with their own eyes, where do they get bamboo mats and pine oil cloths? ”

Everyone nodded, and Lu Shigao urged: "What is the mystery in this, you might as well ask Mr. to make it clear." ”

"I also said that the idea is there, and whether it is correct or not needs to be verified." Qin Baichuan took out a bamboo strip as long as a toothpick from under the bamboo chair of the seat, and inserted the sharp end into the gap between the bamboo basket.

"What are you going to do?" Shi Jun's expression changed drastically.

"Solve your problem." Shi Jun made a gesture to stop it, but Qin Baichuan took a step faster, and the slender bamboo strip seemed to pierce some kind of barrier that was invisible to the naked eye, and as he pulled out the bamboo strip, the clear water in the bamboo basket gurgled out.

"This ......" Shi Jun was stunned, everyone present looked at each other and changed color, there was obviously nothing to be filled in the gap of the bamboo basket, why could the ordinary bamboo strips break through the fog in front of him?

"Everybody's seen it, right?" Qin Baichuan observed the tip of the bamboo strip, then showed it to everyone, and said, "Take a closer look, the tip of this bamboo strip is stained with some sticky things, and our Mr. Shi Da is using this thing to fill it to stop the flow of water, and play tricks of tricks." ”

Everyone didn't see it very well from Shang Yuan, Qin Baichuan handed the bamboo strip to Lu Shigao, and said with a smile: "Lord Lu, please check it yourself, this frog egg is what I called a bamboo mat and pine tarpaulin." ”

"Frog eggs?" Lu Shigao was stunned.

"That's right, it's a frog egg." Qin Baichuan brushed away the water droplets on his fingers and explained: "I thought that Mr. Shi Da used paste, and he didn't recognize it until he pierced it. Frog eggs can be seen everywhere, their color is transparent, the toughness is excellent, the frog eggs are smeared and filled to the pores of the bamboo basket, and after they dry up, a thin film will be formed inside the bamboo basket, which is difficult to distinguish with the naked eye, so the illusion that the bamboo basket does not flow when the water does not flow. Mr. Shida, yes and no? ”

It wasn't until Qin Baichuan's reasoned and well-founded explanation, coupled with strong factual evidence, that everyone suddenly realized. The students of Qingfeng Academy seemed to raise their eyebrows one by one, and puffed up their chests high, whether they were permanent masters or guest seats, Qin Baichuan represented them Qingfeng Academy! Not to mention those students, even Fang Zichang was stunned, and his stunned face was mixed with surprise.

Shi Junru was like a defeated rooster and took half a step back to admit defeat, but Zhu Tianyi spoke again without yin or yang: "Qin Baichuan, you come from a humble background, don't think that you will be complacent if you know some rough tricks that cannot be used on the stage, in fact, if one of the students of Qingfeng Academy pierces the gap, they can know the mystery." As the old saying goes, full of losses, humble benefits, good life remembers. ”

Qin Baichuan's face sank, and he looked back at Zhu Tianyi and was silent.

"What are you doing standing here? Step aside. Zhu Tianyi didn't think that he had said anything wrong, Qin Baichuan's background was there, and he, Zhu Tianyi, was the deputy academician of Qingfeng Academy, so he was naturally qualified to teach the guest seats.

"Vice Academician Zhu, I remember clearly what Qin's origin is, so I don't need you to remind me here." Qin Baichuan spat at the mouth: "If one of the students in the academy pierces the gap, they can know the mystery, then let me ask you, why didn't anyone stab Qin before someone stood up?" ”

"You're so daring!" was questioned on the spot by the guest seat, and Zhu Tianyi couldn't hold it on his face.

"It reminds me of a story." Qin Baichuan didn't bother to pay attention to him at all: "It is said that in ancient times, there was a wise man who gathered his disciples together and asked them to find a way to put an egg on the table without the help of foreign objects, and all the disciples could not complete it. ”

"One of them, picking up an egg and smashing it, fulfilled the wise man's request, and many disciples were not angry, thinking that they could do such a simple thing." Qin Baichuan pouted and said: "The wise man told those disciples, when others didn't expect it, breaking the routine is the true knowledge; If someone has set an example and blindly followed, but learning to be a parrot, a piece of dung. ”

"Presumptuous!" Qin Baichuan pointed out that Sang scolded Huai and said that he was feces, Zhu Tianyi's old face turned red, and he was furious.

"Enough!" A situation that was originally quite good turned out to be Xixi and the vice academician arguing here, Rao is Fang Zichang couldn't help but be angry no matter how good he was: "You are all the backbone of Qingfeng Academy, and you can conflict with different ideas in ordinary times, but today you will let go of the old man, otherwise don't blame me for expelling you from the academy!" ”

Fang Zichang suppressed his anger and found a suitable excuse for the battle of words between Qin Baichuan and Zhu Tianyi.

"What Academician Fang said is extremely true." It is not uncommon for there to be some quarrels in the academy competition, Lu Shigao helped Fang Zichang to suppress the matter, and said with a smile: "Mr. Qin has solved Mr. Shi's problem, then this round can be regarded as the victory of Qingfeng Academy, so what is the problem of the General's Mansion?" ”

"Yes!" The capable guy who jumped out of the General's Mansion was Zhan Yang, who may have some personal relationship with Shi Jun, and Zhan Yang jumped out to target Qin Baichuan: "Lord Lu said that Mr. Qin is a pedantic, and I also want to see it!" Zhan Yang is a person who practices martial arts, and he can't say those nice words, Mr. Qin made an analogy with eggs, so look at my egg! ”

Zhan Yang's voice fell, and a strong man walked out of the camp of the General's Mansion, the strong man was holding a porcelain bowl in his hand, and the porcelain bowl was covered with red cloth, and when everyone looked at the strong man, Zhan Yang said again: "Everyone knows that the sky is round and things have their own shapes, but what kind of explanation can Mr. Qin give for this square egg?" ”

As he spoke, Zhan Yang stretched out his hand to uncover the red cloth, and what was in the bowl was really a square ...... Egg.

"How is this possible!" Someone in the crowd shouted at the moment.

"Absolutely impossible! How do chickens give birth to square eggs? ”

"It's just like an egg in color, maybe it's a stone carving and wood carving?"

"Yes, fake, absolutely fake."

……

"Fake?" Zhan Yang sneered disdainfully: "Lord Lu, please take a look." ”

"Oh?" Lu Shigao took the bamboo chopsticks handed over by Zhan Yang, gently smashed the eggshell, and carefully picked up the square egg.

"This ......" Lu Shigao's eyes also widened, and after thinking for a while, he couldn't find a clue, seeing Zhan Yang's good eyes staring at Qin Baichuan, he took the opportunity to say: "Mr. Qin, chickens give birth to square eggs, do you know the key?" ”
