"Little Brother Qin, I'm convinced, you are far better than me in the attainments of the couplet, after I wrote this couplet, I also got the couplet right, but now I look at it, compared with your first couplet, my downlink is ......, don't mention it, don't mention it, whether it's for the neatness of the battle, or in terms of artistic conception, your downlink is stronger than mine, and I found a perfect match for this pair of odd couplets, which is perfect."

Xie Jin looked at Qin Duan for a long time, and said with some shame, he didn't expect that he would lose to a junior in this Jinling Book Friend Meeting, in his own strengths.

Hehe, of course it's perfect, because Qin Duan not only knows this couplet, but even knows its origin, in Qin Dui's previous life Qin ~ Huang ~ Island, there is a Meng Jiang Nu Temple, and the pillars on both sides of the front hall are carved with this couplet.

It describes the natural scenery of Shanhaiguan and Mengjiang Numiao, and also expresses a view of nature and the universe, saying that everything in the world is the same as the sea water and floating clouds, rising and falling towards the tide, often rising and falling, and there is no normality.

This pair of Yinglian, can read more than ten kinds of readings, can be regarded as a wonder in the world, in the university Chinese department textbook, there is this pair, so Qin Twilight also remembers deeply

As for whose pen this pair of upper and lower couplets came from, Qin Duan is not clear, and there is no record in the history of China, but this is a couplet, of course, the artistic conception of the battle is flawless, otherwise how could it be called a strange couplet by later generations?

It's just that Xie Jin is really talented, in this world where there is no Meng Jiang Nu Temple, he actually came up with the upper link of this strange couplet, looking at Xie Jin's appearance and the reaction just now, he obviously didn't come up with the corresponding lower link, or the lower link he thought was not this.

However, it doesn't matter, Qin Duan helped him complete this couplet, and it can be regarded as finding a good home for this ancient couplet in this world.

"Good one, 'floating clouds are long, long, absolutely, Qilian pair, it is definitely an absolute that has been passed down through the ages, Qilian, I now announce, Qin Dusk, Qin Gongzi's five couplets have all passed."

This time, Xu Lang didn't ask everyone's opinions, nor did he ask Xie Jin's opinions, so he announced it himself, because everyone here understood that Qin Duan even got the most difficult couplet in the end, and so the reading method was correct, no matter what aspect it was, it was flawless to the neat artistic conception.

Regarding Xu Lang's conclusion, no one in the entire backyard has any objections, and no one dares to object, after all, such a strange couplet, it is difficult for people like them to read, not to mention, there are so many changes, everyone is not convinced.

"Since everyone has no opinions, then now it's Qin Dusk's turn to make a pair, Qin Gongzi, please go up." Xu Lang said to Qin Duan.

Qin Duan looked at Xie Jin and said with a smile: "Old Xie, then I'll have a problem?" ”

"Isn't that the question?"

I don't know why, looking at Qin Dui's smile, Xie Jin has a bad feeling, could it be that this Qin Dui will come up with a link that he can't match? How is this possible, for decades, Xie Jin has never lost a couplet.

How could he be frightened by a young man, but why did he have such a bad premonition, Xie Jin didn't understand.

Qin Duan picked up the brush and brushed a few words on the paper, then turned around and said with a smile, "I've written it, hehe." ”

Xie Jin looked at the paper, and the whole person was dumbfounded, this, what kind of pair is this, the first link to blind himself, how to play this game.

Seeing that Xie Lao was stupidly looking at Shanglian on the paper in a daze, Xu Lang couldn't help but walk over curiously to take a look, only to see that it was written on the paper, "The lonely cold window is empty and widowed." ”

Just at a glance.

Xu Lang almost spit out a mouthful of old blood with a puff

I'm cǎo you're a nine grandmother, what kind of fucking are you up, do you want to be so ruthless.

Even a person like Xu Lang, who is a good person, couldn't help but scold his mother, and scolded Qin Dui for his lack of virtue in his heart.

Hehe, to be honest, Qin Duan is lacking in virtue enough, because this sentence is an eternal absolute in the world of his previous life, even if the "smoke lock pond willow" is absolute, there are people in Chinese history who are very close, and there have been a lot of downlinks, although those downlinks have all kinds of problems, and they are not neat, but they are still right.

But this "lonely cold window empty widow", in the hundreds of years that his world has been circulating, has not even appeared in a decent, or even barely reluctant, downlink, let alone to fight neatly, it has to conform to the artistic conception, and it is called the most difficult couplet in history.

It is said that there is a story in this, this story happened in the late Ming and early Qing dynasties of the Chinese Kingdom in the previous life of Qin Dusk, there was a woman from the south of the Yangtze River, who was talented and charming, but then escaped into the empty door because of personnel grievances, regardless of eroticism.

The woman wrote a couplet on the wall outside the temple gate - "Lonely and cold windows are empty and widowed", and frankly said that those who can cope with it will make a physical and mental promise to return to the red dust.

For a while, there was an endless stream of literati and scholars who went to deal with it, but in the end, they all returned in a huff.

The reason for this is because the upper couplet is embedded with the same side, and the meaning is fluent and through, if there is no divine pen, how can one or two ordinary people break it at will?

At the end of the story, it was very regrettable, seeing that there was no confidant in the future, the little woman was disheartened, and she really stayed in the temple for the rest of her life, until she died lonely.

The reason why this "lonely cold window is empty and widowed" is a couplet, and no one can solve it to this day, is not because of the exquisite mechanism in the text, but because there is really no following that can be worthy of the word "lonely".

Dead linked.

There is no way that anyone can come up right.

Even if someone can do it in the future, it will be hundreds of thousands of years later.

The whole courtyard was silent.

Everyone is looking at this uplink.

Qin Du was afraid that the people in the distance would not be able to see clearly, so he read it again, "Lonely and cold, the window is empty and widowed." ”

Originally, Xie Jin was very confident in Qin Duan's Shanglian, thinking that he would be able to pass it soon, who wanted to wait for him was such a Shanglian, and he immediately held back the words in his mouth.

Lord Xu and a few people who really knew how to do it were also stunned by this Shanglian after Qin Dusk put down his pen.

this

This is linked......

The meaning of Qin Dusk's Shanglian is very simple, even very straightforward, it is a lonely ** alone guarding the cold window, unlike some couplets that are more awkward and more esoteric, this Shanglian doesn't even need to be translated, anyone can understand it.

And this uplink is greasy, at most, it's the same as the side capital, on the surface it's just an ordinary odd link, this kind of uplink is more in this world, there's nothing strange about it.

Of course, this is the layman's opinion, and the first reaction of those who are really experts and who have studied couplets deeply must want to vomit blood

How is this right?

It doesn't go right at all

Some talented and beautiful women feel that they can match it, so they keep thinking about it in their hearts.

"I think it's right to be melancholy ......, but no."

"It's not a handsome ......, it's not done, it's not neat."

"The roses fall into the grass and the reeds are barren...... but this artistic conception is too far away."

……

The more we think about it, the more we feel a headache, the more we think about it, the more shocked we feel, this Shanglian looks like anyone can be a pair, as long as they are given time, but the more they think about it, the more thoroughly they study, the more there is a deep sense of powerlessness, and the heart is slowly cooled down.

Not really.

This couplet actually doesn't match.

None of us can connect up and down.

Also, in the hundreds of years of history in China, no one has matched, even today, when information is so developed, no one has matched.

Not to mention that there are only a hundred people in this yard.

Soon the time for the half-burnt incense passed.

"This link is over, Qin Gongzi, you should go out of the next link."

Xu Lang said helplessly, Xu Lang also hoped that Xie Lao could match, but looking at Xie Lao's current situation, it is estimated that he will not be able to match it if he is given half a stick of incense.

In fact, Xu Lang doesn't need to ask Qin Duan to come out with the next couplet, now the victory or defeat, everyone can see it, but Xu Lang is not easy to say, after all, Xie Lao is not an ordinary person, he is the former cabinet elder of the Great Qin Dynasty, the leader of the literary world of the Great Qin Dynasty, and the most talented person in the Great Qin Dynasty.

"Forget it, Qin Xiaoyou, you don't want to make any more pairs, just your first couplet, the old man will be stumped, and he will be embarrassed, if there are a few more difficult pairs than this, the old man will really dig the ground and bury himself, this competition, the old man will lose convinced."

Xie Jin looked at Qin Du with a smile and said, the tone of his voice was particularly kind, and his title changed from Qin Gongzi, little brother, to Qin Xiaoyou.

Now Xie Jin completely regards Qin Dui as an equal to himself, Qin Dui's game made Xie Jin completely recognize Qin Dui, and felt that his talent was definitely not below him, so he was willing to associate with his peers.

"Xie Lao laughed, this is the most difficult pair I can make, I don't have a link myself, if you want me to make a difficult pair, I can't get out."

Qin Dui said with a smile, this is true, if you really want Qin Dui to come up with a more difficult link than this, Qin Dui really can't get out, after all, this "lonely cold window empty widow" is already the most difficult absolute that Qin Dui knows, no matter how difficult it is, Qin Dui really doesn't have it.

"Lord Xu, just give this picture to Qin Xiaoyou, I didn't expect that this book club would be able to meet a genius like Qin Xiaoyou, it's really my blessing to Qin."

Xie Jin said with emotion, very happy to sigh, I have to be Xie Jin is a very virtuous predecessor in the literary world, not ashamed of losing, but happy to lose.

In Qin Duan's heart, Xie Jin is a person with a high style and bright temperament.

"Okay, the color head also has a home, and it doesn't make much sense for me to compare it anymore, it's not early, everyone is hungry, let's have dinner."

Xu Lang said with a smile, he didn't mention who won or lost at this time, only said that it was time to eat, so that everyone would not be embarrassed.
