Chapter 27 Lanterns

He Lingjiang frowned and asked Ah Man behind him: "What about Wulang Junren?" ”

Ah Man kept following her, staring closely at her and He Ziyu, and when he heard the words, he said: "There is a trick in front, and Golangjun just squeezed to see it." ”

"Don't worry, Qingzhu and Qiongzhi are following closely."

He ordered Jiang to bow his head, and the person behind him was targeting the He family's room, he had just been attacked before, and he didn't have the energy to be a demon in the past two days.

Before leaving the house, she specially drew a talisman for He Ziyu, which can eliminate disasters and evil spirits, and get rid of misfortunes, but she is not afraid that there will be people with bad intentions to curse at will.

As for Qingzhu and Qiongzhi, they each have two talismans on their bodies, one can lead to lightning attacks, and the other has the effect of illusion.

Although it is useless to encounter a master of occult arts, such a talisman can last for a while and a half, so that they have time to escape.

If it is an ordinary person, then it is better to say that the two of Qingzhu Qiongzhi have martial arts skills, which is enough to deal with it.

It's also reassuring to have the two of them staring at it.

Even if he came out, He Lingjiang didn't plan to go back immediately, so he took Aman and continued to walk forward slowly.

"Whew!" Someone next to him performed a fire-breathing performance, which attracted the cheers of passers-by.

He Lingjiang looked at it all the way, but it was also interesting.

Walking through the place of juggling performances, there is an area for watching lanterns and guessing riddles, all kinds of lanterns are colorful, and the moonlight reflects each other, like a fairyland under the moon.

In the distance, I saw a tall lamp tower standing in it.

The lantern tower is built with a knot, it is six or seven zhang high, there is a wind blowing at this time, and the golden and jade things hanging on the lamp tower make a crisp sound, which is very pleasant.

This year, the He family specially invited the most famous craftsman in Jiangzhou to make 9981 exquisite lanterns of different shapes and hang them on the lantern tower.

Each lantern is equipped with a riddle, or related to poetry and songs, or involving the six arts of gentlemen, or astronomy and geography, attracting talented and beautiful people to compete for answers.

There are countless small lanterns hanging around under it, and there are also puzzles at the bottom for visitors to enjoy.

By this time, the delicate lanterns on the lantern tower had been taken down and replaced by ordinary lanterns.

The highest place is a delicate and transparent octagonal palace lamp, the flowers, birds, fish and insects painted on it are vivid, surrounded by gold and jade, colorful spikes, and inlaid with water spirit pearls, the light is very bright under the reflection, it can be said that it is extremely exquisite, and it is worth a lot.

Even Aman couldn't help but exclaim when he saw it: "Seven Niangzi, that palace lamp is so beautiful, why don't you win it!" ”

He Ling Jiang smiled and said, "Aman can't help but believe in me too much. ”

Aman said: "The Seventh Lady is the most intelligent, and she will definitely be able to take it down." ”

He Lingjiang shook his head and was silent, if she was compared to the occult arts, except for the master, no one would be able to recognize the first if she recognized the second, but it was a pity that she had no talent in poetry and songs.

The octagonal palace lamp has to answer ten questions correctly in a row in a stick of incense, and it involves a wide range, if you make a mistake in the middle, you will lose the opportunity. If the next person answers, the question will also change accordingly to avoid repetition and tricks.

At this time, many people have already come confidently and returned home.

A blue-clothed gentleman walked off the high platform with a regretful face, he accidentally made a mistake in answering the sixth question, and he could only lose the battle.

"These ten questions are more tricky than the other, and it is not easy to win the lantern at the top."

"Yes! I don't know if anyone can get it all right. ”

The young man on the side, Lang Jun, heard this, and couldn't help but say aloud: "Why can't you?" ”

He raised his elbow and poked Lang Jun, a young man in a moon-white brocade robe beside him, and said, "Why don't you try Jing Yan?" ”

Lang Jun, who is named Jingyan, said with a smile: "If you want this lantern, you can go to the stage to answer the question, why do you want to pull me?" ”

The previous young man Lang Jun Lang Jun was not happy, and said: "If I can answer, how can I ask you to be in the limelight?" ”

Na Lang Jun said suspiciously: "Do you really like that lantern?" Delicate is exquisite, but the man is too gorgeous, right? ”

The young man Lang Jun rolled his eyes: "I'm willing." Today, brother, I want this lamp, but you can't say it's on? ”

"Okay, okay, for the friendship we grew up together since childhood, I have to go this trip for you."

The young man Lang Jun laughed, patted him on the shoulder and said, "Good brother." It's just that you don't have to say this to the little lady. ”

"Why?"

The young man Lang Jun made a gesture of heartache and quipped: "If I am a little lady, in front of your face, and hear your words again, I will have to be a gentleman in this life." ”

When Lang Jun, who was called Jingyan, heard this, he replied calmly: "Fortunately, you are not a daughter, otherwise I would have run away." ”

As he spoke, he left the young man Lang Jun who was screaming and raised his feet on the high platform.

He leaned over slightly and saluted the questioner: "The kid has no form, so let's give it a try." ”

Everyone saw that Lang Jun in front of them was only eighteen or nineteen years old, dressed in moon-white clothes, elegant temperament, handsome, full of manners, and at first glance, he was from a famous family.

The audience was silent for an instant, and even the obvious gasping sound could be heard, and the little ladies were even brighter in their eyes.

The questioner also leaned over and saluted: "Lang Jun, please." ”

"May I ask what kind of person Lang Jun wants to start with?"

This topic is divided into 10 categories, ranging from music and scriptures to astronomy and arithmetic. Some people like to choose what they are good at first, and some people want to start with what they are not good at.

Na Langjun said: "Come in order." ”

The questioner nodded, took down the title numbered one, and asked: "The three of them the oxtail, and they are enough to sing eight que: one is to carry the people, the second is called the Xuanniao, the third is the grass and trees, the fourth is the five grains, the fifth is the respect for the heavens, the sixth is the emperor's gong, the seventh is the virtue of the land, and the eighth is the extreme of the total birds and beasts, may I ask Lang Jun, which tribe does this song refer to?" ”

The Lang Jun took his hand and replied loudly: "This is the joy of the Ge Tian clan. ”

This is not a difficult question.

Immediately afterwards, the questioner asked the remaining questions one by one according to the question number, and Na Langjun was obviously at ease and calmly said the correct answers one by one.

The audience couldn't help applauding and cheering, the previous people insisted on the eighth question at most and then lost, but this Lang Jun stood until the ninth question, which can be described as powerful.

"That's the last question left." The questioner smiled, "Lang Jun, please listen to the question." ”

"Today there is a wall five feet thick, two rats wear each other, one foot each on the first day, rats are doubled every day, mice are half a day, ask when they meet? How much do you wear? ”

This is a set of arithmetic problems.

Everyone in the audience gasped when they heard it, this last question is really difficult. What's more, that Lang Jun stood on the stage and didn't have a pen and paper to calculate, just thinking in his head, I'm afraid he can't answer, right?

He Lingjiang followed everyone to the stage to look at it, because she learned metaphysics, she even knew a little about arithmetic, astronomy and geography, this question examines arithmetic, and involves the problem of speed change, it is not simple.

There is a specialization in the art industry, and people's energy is limited after all, and she is also curious whether this Lang Jun, who has already answered nine questions, can win this last question.
