142 Guessing the riddle in the light market

A cold moon hung quietly in the corner of the building, and pedestrians on the street rubbed shoulders one after another, which was more lively than the usual market day.

Adults, children, the elderly, or a family, or in twos and threes, happily strolling around the street.

Many of the shops on both sides of the street, which are not accustomed to opening at night, have opened their doors due to the large number of people.

Lanterns are hung in front of each store, and most of them have various riddles tied under them.

Jiang Yi occasionally stopped for one or two exquisitely shaped lanterns, or guessed when she saw a simple puzzle, walked most of the street, and won four or five small prizes.

The riddles were mostly simple, and she didn't want to mess with them, as most bosses knew her.

After a while, I arrived at the center of the town, the door of Lin Feng Restaurant.

There is an open space of nearly 100 square meters, like a square in the city center in the previous life, surrounded by merchants and some hawkers.

Therefore, it is also the place with the most lanterns and the most crowded.

At this time, the gate of the Lin Feng Hotel was full of people and crowded.

If it's a boy desperately squeezing, it's nothing, but she, a woman, has a lot of scruples, so she found that it was difficult to advance an inch after walking halfway.

"Madam, why are you coming out too?" Chun'er's voice suddenly sounded next to him.

Looking for prestige, I saw Lin Le and a few teenagers, leading Chun'er Liu'er and Zhao Nengli beside them.

She was immediately happy, but her face was full of anger; "I'm looking for you to go back, you guys are going crazy, don't you know how to go home?"

Several of them squeezed to the side, Chun'er stuck out her tongue, and then said with a grin; "We just wanted to go back, but I heard that there is an interesting riddle here, and if you guess correctly, you can get eight hundred copper."

Jiang Yi snorted and laughed; "Can you guess the riddle?"

Chun'er raised some small toys in her hand angrily, and said arrogantly; "Madame underestimates people, you see that several of us have won four prizes."

Jiang Yi stuffed the small prize in his hand over; "I've won five small prizes by myself, so I'll give it to you if you like."

"Wow! Madame is amazing. Tsubaki's eyes widened and she smiled happily.

Lin Le and Liu Er laughed, even Zhao Nengli laughed

"What's the riddle over there? Can no one guess? ”

Liu Er Dao; "That's right, this riddle has been hanging out for almost half an hour, no one can guess it, and the reward is relatively rich, so it attracted a large group of people."

This aroused Jiang Yi's interest, so he said with great interest; "Oh? What riddle is so hard to guess? I'll take a look. ”

Lin Le saw that his wife wanted to see it, so he and a few teenagers opened the way in front and helped squeeze to the door of the hotel.

There was a big red paper pasted on the door of the door, on which a poem was written, and several readers in the front row stared at the red paper and thought about it, their brows were tightly locked, and it seemed that they had been thinking about it for a long time.

Jiang Yi looked at it fixedly, and it wrote; The beautiful woman pretended to be drunk and asked for help, chiseled the wall and stole the light to read at night. Lu Gong has never been cold, he remembers his mother on the road late, everyone wears a hat, and the old man follows the door all day long. Walking into the embroidered curtain to find it, the door was returned to Wang Jiefu.

Underneath the poem reads; Guess the eight famous people in history, and win all at once.

This riddle is ostensibly a poem, but in fact there is no poetry at all, it is completely irrelevant, but this is not the point, the point is that there is a historical celebrity hidden in each line of poetry.

Such riddles are very difficult, and if you are not a reader who is familiar with the classics, you don't even know much about historical celebrities, let alone guess them.

Jiang Yi has been very fond of guessing riddles and brain teasers since she was a child, and when she saw these challenging riddles, she couldn't help but close her eyes and ponder.

Next to him, a guy who looked to be in his forties and dressed as a scholar shook his head and sighed; "Oops, this is so difficult, I watched it for a long time, and I only guessed two celebrities."

Standing next to him was a young man in his early twenties, who seemed to be also a scholar, but he didn't know if he had fame, he took over and said; "It's good to be able to guess two, but I watched it for a long time, and I didn't guess any of them."

The contemptuous way of the old scholar; "That's because you don't read enough books, you should read more classics."

The young scholar was a little unconvinced, so he asked rhetorically; "Oh~ but I don't know if you guessed those two poems?"

The old scholar is proud; "The second sentence, isn't it Kuang Heng who chiseled the wall and stole the light? Kuang Heng is a famous scholar in history, when he was a child, his family was poor and could not afford to light a lamp, so in order to study, he chiseled through the wall and stole the light of his neighbors to study. ”

The young reader couldn't help but laugh; "Poof......

"What are you laughing at?" The old scholar gave him a blank look and asked angrily.

"No, you go on."

The old scholar didn't care, and said; There is also a fifth sentence; Everyone wears Zizhan hats, talking about Su Shi Su Dongpo, he is one of the eight masters of the Tang and Song dynasties, and once invented a long hat that was popular for a while, so this sentence refers to Su Dongpo. ”

"Hahaha...... "The young reader laughed;" If the answer to the puzzle was that easy, anyone could guess it. ”

The old scholar shook his head and sneered; "Tsk, you don't know how to learn yourself, you don't even know these historical celebrities, I guessed it and laughed at me, I really don't know what to do!"

The young reader retorted; "Fuck your bullshit, do you really think I don't know these things about Kuang Heng and Su Dongpo? It's just that this riddle is profound, and it is by no means as simple as it seems. ”

Then he said; "If you say so, then the sentence of remembering my mother on the way back is written; The line in the mother's hand, Meng Jiao in the wanderer's shirt? The one who returned Wang Jiefu in the form of a door is Wang Anshi? ”

The old scholar suddenly said as if he had been empowered; "Hey, yes, the historical celebrities in this sentence are Meng Jiao and Wang Anshi."

The young reader spat out two words; "Innocent!"

"Who are you talking about being naΓ―ve?!"

"Isn't it?"

The old scholar was said to be innocent by a hairy boy at his age, and his beard trembled with anger, and he stretched out his hand and pointed at him angrily; "You're young, aren't you a child? I actually said that I was naΓ―ve, or we made a bet, if these four sentences are not about these four historical celebrities, I will ...... I'll lose you eight hundred brass. ”

"Okay, I'll read it to you, if it's these four people, I'll lose you three hundred copper ......" The two of them fought red-faced, so it was not lively.

The people next to him watched with relish.

Two people in Xiucai shirts listened, looked at the two of them with disdain and smiled.

One of them said; "Brother Li, how many have you guessed?"

Xiucai, who was known as Brother Li, shook his head helplessly and said with a wry smile; "I guessed two, one is Zhuge Kongming in the second sentence, and the other is Taigongwang in the sixth sentence."

"Me too!"

Everyone was talking, but Jiang Yi was like an old monk, I don't know how long it took, she opened her bright eyes, the corners of her mouth turned up, and she couldn't help shouting excitedly; "I guessed it."
