Looking at the pedestrians around him, they all ran in the direction of the east gate, and the lights of the east gate were brilliant at a glance, all of which were gorgeous. Fireworks of all colors bloom in the sky above it, resembling various forms. Since you have come to this lantern festival, it is natural to go to the most lively place to see so as not to miss any good scenery.

The road to the star-picking tower is naturally lively, the fish and dragon dance, the fire trees and silver flowers, all bright.

After walking for a while, the two walked to the door of the Star Picking Building. At this moment, there are a lot of people gathered at the door of the Star Picking Building, and the Star Picking Building in front of them is shrouded in a halo, as if there is a bright moon hanging from the building, and the streamer is covered with tiles to reflect each other. There are hexagonal wind chimes hanging in the corner of the eaves upstairs, which are rustling for the wind, and it is suspected that the fairy sound falls.

"This year's lantern festival is organized by me in the Star Tower, and we have prepared a lot of lanterns for this lantern festival to thank you." A middle-aged man in a green robe walked out of the Star Picking Tower, and said aloud after arching his hand to everyone.

As soon as the man's voice fell, the crowd immediately became noisy. Many people huddled forward, and those who couldn't see looked forward with the help of their friends or jumped up with the help of their friends, as if they were afraid that they would miss something wonderful.

On the contrary, Xie Yaoguang and the two of them were extremely quiet, and they had no intention of squeezing forward. So after a while, the two of them were squeezed to the rear, and the crowd was really crowded, and Ye Linchen was on the side to protect them, otherwise I don't know if they would squeeze and fall.

"Hurry up, release it and take a look!"

Someone in the crowd shouted, and others chimed in.

The man smiled and clenched his fists, and his tone was respectful, "Please don't be impatient, this year's lantern festival is a little different from the previous gameplay." ”

"Then tell me what kind of play it is this year."

"Today's lantern festival, there are still lantern riddle guessing activities. However, the gameplay is divided into three rounds. After a pause, the man continued, "In the first round, the ten who answered correctly will be selected to enter the next round, and the second round will select four more to enter the final round, and the winner of the third round will become the winner of this lantern festival." ”

"Then let's not get started!"

"Don't worry, you all know the rules of the game?"

"Understood, don't be verbose."

The steward of the Star Picking Tower smiled and bowed, raising his hand to signal his subordinates to beat the gong and drum. As soon as the gong fell, there were waiters who hung the lanterns one by one on the colored threads that had already been tied, such as rabbit lanterns, butterfly lanterns, carp lanterns, and lotus lanterns...... Colored paper hangs under various colored lanterns, and lantern riddles are written for guessing. The waiter will read out the riddles on the lanterns one by one, and then the people will guess them.

"Everyone, please listen, our first riddle: where is there no fish in the water? Where is there no stone in the mountain? What tree has no branches? What son has no father? Who has no husband? Where is there no city? ”

Xie Yaoguang raised his eyes and glanced at Ye Linchen, and said with a smile, "Young Master Chen, are you interested?" ”

Xie Yaoguang under the lamp had a faint halo on his whole body, that is, he couldn't see the face under the mask, and he could imagine that the face under the mask was naturally low eyebrows and a shallow smile at this time, and his lips were slightly hooked. As far as Ye Linchen is concerned, the Xie Yaoguang he saw can show different charms no matter what color clothes he wears, or enchanting or dusty, dignified or coquettish, he thinks that there are beautiful women in the north as the predecessors said, peerless and independent, looking at the city, and then looking at the country, that is, Xie Yaoguang is like this. However, in addition to her beauty, Xie Yaoguang is also a woman who is wise and close to demons.

“…… If Yaoyao you have this intention. I don't have a problem with that. ”

Before the words fell, Xie Yaoguang's eyebrows under the mask wrinkled slightly and then calmed down, and for a moment, it seemed that something cold and sharp seemed to wind around his heart with a trace of sharp pain.

"Then Your Highness might as well guess what this lantern riddle is?" Xie Yaoguang suddenly looked up at Ye Linchen and said with a smile.

“…… Nam no Amitabha? Ye Linchen's voice was not loud, but it was enough for the waiters not far away to hear.

One of the waiters walked towards the place where the two of them were, handed Ye Linchen a plum blossom and said respectfully: "Count right and wrong with flowers, congratulations to this son, you answered correctly."

The same is true for all other correct answers.

"Please listen to this ninth question, the first branch of the east wind, guess a poem"

"When spring happens!" Xie Yaoguang blurted out.

The steward of the Star Picking Tower had already noticed Xie Yaoguang wearing a Rakshasa mask at the back of the crowd, and couldn't help but blurt out praise: "This girl is really smart, give flowers!" ”

"Thanks for the compliment."

The answer became more and more intense, and I saw that I was approaching the last question. Ye Linchen and Xie Yaoguang each accumulated a lot of flowers and branches in their hands, which was particularly eye-catching in the crowd. The people who had the same number of branches as them secretly kept a watchful eye, and there was a provocative look in their eyes that seemed to regard them as fierce rivals.

"There is one final question, and the top ten people who win will be able to enter the second round of lantern riddles." The steward of the star plucker bowed his hand to the crowd and motioned for the waiter to continue reading.

"Let anyone come to appreciate the four seasons, please type a sentence in "Poems"!"

With a chuckle in his eyes, Xie Yaoguang immediately said aloud: "Watching flowers is forbidden." ”

"Congratulations to these guests and these two distinguished guests for entering the next round of lantern riddles." The waiter first counted the flowers in the hands of the two people one by one, and then collected the flowers and branches in the hands of the others.

The drums beat again, and new lanterns were hung up again. The previous lanterns were given to the participants who did not enter the second round but were already considered excellent.

"Ladies and gentlemen, please come to the stage."

Ye and Xie walked up to the lantern tower together and stood apart with the other eight people who had just finished the lantern riddle, nodding to each other as a salute.

"The first riddle of this second round is that the living are 100 years old, and they play a sentence from the Book of Songs." The man said while not looking, looking at Ye and Xie from the corner of his eye, and couldn't help but guess the identities of the two.

As soon as the topic was finished, Xie Yaoguang blurted out in front of everyone: "I don't know the date." ”

"Ranye......" Hearing this, the surprise in the man's tone was hard to hide.

"Déjà vu Yan returns, please call the Book of Books!"

"Never forget the royal family." Xie Yaoguang raised his head and chuckled, still rushing to say the answer in front of everyone.

"Dare to ask the girl why she is doing this?" The steward of the Star Picking Building looked at Xie Yaoguang in a little surprise and asked, "Can you answer a question or two for you?"

This allusion should come from the old Wang Xie Tang Qianyan. I feel that this returned swallow is naturally related to the Wang family. Are you satisfied with my solution?"

"Girl, this solution is really wonderful!"

"When the remnants of flowers fly away, play a sentence of "Book of Songs"

"The visit is stopped!"

This will be Ye Linchen and Xie Yaoguang read out the mystery in unison.

The steward of the Star Picking Tower couldn't help but be dumbfounded when he listened to the answers of the two people in front of him. I don't know who the woman in the scarlet skirt in front of me is, and she can guess so many questions one after another. Looking at the clothes of her and the men around her, although they are simple, they are all exquisite, and I don't know which kind of characters they are.

"Spring returns to autumn to Fei Acacia and plays the four words of the saying"

"Wine in the bowels!"
