The moment the paper touches the wall, the mural bursts with brilliant light.

With the melodious sound of the cave flute, the light quickly spread to the surroundings until it enveloped the entire house.

The frost in the yard melted.

The corpses on the ground were gone.

The carved railings, pavilions, and pavilions have all returned to their normal appearance.

And compared to the dilapidated appearance before, the Lu Mansion at this time is simply new.

Biwa Feiyong, jade step Tongting, magnificent, prosperous and lively.

It's like yesterday.

"We're now in the world of murals." Tang Hui introduced on the side.

As soon as the words fell, two maids wearing blue skirts appeared beside them, and said to them in a respectful tone: "Dare to ask your guests if they have an invitation to the 'Hundred Flowers Poetry Society'?" ”

Gu Xu handed them the flower note in his hand.

In Gu Xu's perception, these two maids are neither living people nor evil ghosts, but more like illusory projections.

This made him marvel at the magic of the "Amazing Pen".

"Please come with us!" The two maids took the flower paper and curtsied at Gu Xu.

Then, Gu Xu, Chu Fengge, and Tang Hui followed the two maids, through countless rooms, courtyards, and verandahs, and came to the back garden of the Lu family's mansion.

At this moment, many people had already gathered in the garden.

As depicted in the mural, a long table is placed in the center of the water pavilion.

Mrs. Lu, the president of the Poetry Society, sat in the center.

The other ladies, sons, and ladies sat on either side of her in turn, clearly eager to show off their talents in front of everyone.

"Madam, these are new guests." The two maids saluted Mrs. Lu and said.

The eyes of everyone present suddenly fell on Gu Xu and the others.

In their eyes, the faces of Gu Xu and others are very unfamiliar - I don't know how talented these people are, and they can have a place in this "Hundred Flowers Poetry Society".

In fact, Gu Xu was also a little nervous.

He knew that if he wanted to stand out in this "Hundred Flowers Poetry Society" and be recognized by everyone in the Lu family, then those excellent poetry works in his previous life would be his hole cards.

But the copyist may not be successful.

Because in this kind of literati and ink writers' association to compose poems, there is a high probability that he will not be allowed to play freely, but will write poems with propositions.

Even sometimes I will engage in some word games similar to pairs, word analysis, and flying flower orders, and write some Tibetan poems, palindromic poems, clutch poems and other brain-burning things.

A copyist who has no real talent will definitely show his feet.

"Let's hope they don't make too difficult questions!" Gu Xu silently prayed in his heart.

At this time, Mrs. Lu raised her head, smiled and said, "Do you have any aliases for your guests?" ”

"Alias? What is that? Chu Fengge asked.

"Since we have formed a poetry club, then we are all literati and scholars, and we are worthy of elegant names, which is not bad," Mrs. Lu patiently explained, "For example, my alias is 'Yuanxiang Jushi', An Zhi's alias is 'Shangyang Concubine', and Shiyao's alias is 'Suxue Fairy'......"

Gu Xu remembered at this time that it was mentioned in the information that every member who participated in the Hundred Flowers Poetry Club would give themselves nicknames with great interest.

The courtyard where Lu Shiyao lives is called "Su Xue Yuan", so it is nicknamed "Su Xue Fairy".

Mrs. Lu lives in "Yuanxiang Building" and believes in Buddhism in private, so she is nicknamed "Yuanxiang Jushi".

As for Chen Anzhi, the young lady of the Xiangyang Chen family, her family was planning to send her to the palace as an imperial concubine, and the palace of the Daqi royal family was called "Shangyang Palace", so she was nicknamed "Shangyang Concubine".

……

"My alias is 'Qionglin Genius.'" Tang Hui took the lead in saying.

Many years ago, before Tang Hui joined the Exorcism Division, he had been admitted to the Jinshi.

And the "Qionglin Banquet" is a banquet held by the emperor for the new science and technology scholars after the palace examination.

So Tang Hui uses this as an alias.

"You may be seated!" Mrs. Lu said softly.

"Thank you, ma'am!" With that, Tang Hui sat on the third vacant seat on Mrs. Lu's right.

"Hmm...... Then I'll call it 'Changsheng Gongzi'," Gu Xu smiled slightly, "'Changshengzhai' is the name of my study. ”

"Don't look at me, I'm just his entourage!" Chu Fengge pointed at Gu Xu and said in a bit of a panic.

Don't look at Chu Fengge, this guy is more beautiful than a woman, but in fact, he is a veritable vulgar martial artist, and one of the things he hates the most in his life is to write poetry.

In order not to write poetry, he would rather put aside his pride for a while and pretend to be Gu Xu's entourage.

…………

After some pleasantries, Mrs. Lu asked someone to bring a bamboo carved stick holder, which contained an ivory pick, shook it, and placed it in the center of the long table.

He took another dice and placed it next to the holder.

"These ivory picks are all flower name sticks, and each one has the name of a flower written on it," Mrs. Lu said, "Later, I will roll the dice, and the person who counts them needs to grab a bamboo stick from the stick holder and compose a poem based on the name of the flower on the bamboo stick."

"If you can't write it, you will be punished with three glasses of wine."

Hearing this, Gu Xu breathed a sigh of relief.

This "flower name sign" is not too difficult.

It is equivalent to taking a certain flower as the title and writing a poem with a proposition.

With the accumulation of poetry in his previous life, he can barely cope with it.

"Then as the president, I'll start with a song by myself!" Mrs. Lu smiled and took the lead in grabbing a "flower name stick" from the sticker.

Everyone leaned over to look, only to see a pomegranate flower painted on the sign, inscribed with the words "Scorching Red Dress", and a line of small characters engraved below - "Like a volcano and a pomegranate reflecting a hill".

Chen Anzhi beside her immediately raised his glass and smiled: "Pomegranate is a sign of many sons and many blessings!" I'm here to toast Madame! ”

Gu Xu looked at Chen Anzhi, the lady of the Chen family with a gentle temperament and beautiful appearance, and thought: She is worthy of being the concubine of the gate valve and the future queen mother, this emotional intelligence is really extraordinary!

After seeing the signature, Mrs. Lu pondered for a few minutes, and then opened her mouth to chant:

"A red cloud reflects the sunset,

"Thousands of green leaves dyed with vermilion.

"Even if a man boasts of many children,

"Buried in dust and ashes."

As soon as Mrs. Lu's words fell, the people around her immediately applauded and praised: "Good poem!" ”

But Gu Xu's attention was attracted by the sentence "buried in the dust and turned to ashes".

The bleak artistic conception of this poem is obviously contrary to the "many sons and many blessings" symbolized by pomegranates.

He silently sighed in his heart: If all this is an illusion created by the "Shocking Pen", then is it taking this opportunity to miss its deceased old owner and the disappeared Lu family?

…………

After Mrs. Lu finished chanting the poem, she gently threw the dice on the table.

The dice turned a few times and stopped at one point.

started counting from herself, and just counted Chen Anzhi beside her.

"Anzhi, it's your turn!" She smiled softly.
