Chapter Eighty-Three: Difficult for Simon
Is this a poem? Everyone couldn't help but look at each other, and they couldn't help but snicker in their hearts, and several laughed out loud.
Yu Bingyan stomped his feet fiercely, angry and ashamed: Third Uncle Wow, don't talk nonsense if you don't understand, this is a couplet, what does it have to do with poetry? Where is there any good poetry?
The corners of Ling Tian's mouth tugged strangely, and he finally held back a smile, turned his head and said, "Ximen Gongzi is slow." ”
Ximen Qing's face was blank, standing on the stage and feeling uncomfortable, he wanted to walk back to the Pavilion of Paradise. But he was stopped by Ling Tian, and he couldn't help but turn around, and said with a forced smile: "I don't know what Ling Gongzi still has to say?"
Ling Tian smiled and said, "Just now Gongzi disdained to deal with my couplet, it is true that he has dealt with a lot of similar couplets before, but it doesn't matter, but how about I ask Gongzi Ximen to treat me with another couplet?"
When everyone heard this, they couldn't help but applaud loudly. I understand it very well in my heart, it seems that Ling Tian and Ximen Qing are on the right side today, I don't know what tricky and weird couplets he will come up with to make it difficult for Ximen Qing?
Ximen Qing's spirits perked up, and he was confident that as long as it wasn't the "absolute" just now, he couldn't help himself, and he was determined to save face in this sentence, and he cheered up the spirit of twelve, and said: "Then ask Ling Gongzi to come out of Shanglian, and Ximen will clean his ears and listen." "It turned out to be a solemn look.
Ling Tian smiled slightly, and said: "I am only sparse in my studies, so I will make a short connection, my upper link is 'Sanguang Yue Xing', in a hurry, Ling Tian can't think of any good connections, just make do with this, it must be difficult to defeat Ximen Gongzi, haha." ”
When everyone heard this, they all felt that this coupling was concise and to the point, and it seemed to be unremarkable and not very difficult, but after careful review, they suddenly realized that there was something unusual about this coupling! After thinking for a moment, everyone gasped! The mere five-character couplet was so difficult to match.
The quantifiers in the Gainlian language must be paired with quantifiers, and since the upper link has "three", then the lower link should not have it. But the three words "Yue Yue Xing" that followed are all separate things, and when they are put together, they just happen to be called "three lights". As a result, no matter which number is used to match the next link, it is either more than three words or less than three words, which is really extremely difficult! What's more, the moon star actually happens to be the name of the three continents today!
Ximen Qing's heart was turning, and the only thing that came to mind was that it seemed to be 'Sancai Tiandiren', but the first word of the other party's Shanglian was three, so he was obviously not suitable for Sancai Tiandiren, but with others, it was absolutely unreasonable, and he couldn't help frowning and fell into hard thinking!
Suddenly, the smoke building fell into silence again, and only the sound of Yu Sanye's chewing was extremely clear!
More than 1,000 people fell into contemplation at the same time, and several learned Confucians were especially attentive, each twisting their beards and pacing around, their faces full of sadness. He and the others are on the same level as Mr. Qin, but now because of Mr. Qin's proud disciple Ling Tian, he has been compared invisibly, if he can't even match his disciple's uplink, then it will really be a shame to go home. Although Ling Tian's Shanglian pointed out that Ximen Qing was right, all the old masters regarded this Shanglian as a competition between themselves and Mr. Qin Da, and they all secretly cheered up.
After a long time, an old Confucian with a white beard shook his head gloomily, and said with a long sigh: "I'm sorry, I'm sorry! It's really terrifying! It's so difficult to make such a five-character short couplet, it's really easy, it's right! It's really absolute!" As soon as these words came out, the whole building was filled with sighs!
Mr. Qin Da himself couldn't figure it out, although he still shook his head and sighed, but his face was full of radiance, and there was a half-gloomy look? Seeing that his disciple had stumped the heroes of the world with a seemingly easy and difficult Shanglian, Mr. Qin Da was already so proud in his heart that he almost wanted to sing loudly! Suddenly, he felt that in his life, he had truly reached the peak realm of his dreams at this moment!
Looking proudly at a few old Confucian students who usually fight with him, his stomach was really happy! Hehe, this is the proud disciple of the old man!
Ximen Qing's face became more and more ugly, his fair face slowly became the color of pig's blood like blood, and beads of sweat rolled down his forehead, like a shower.
Ling Tian smiled, his attitude was leisurely, and said: "Ximen Gongzi can think about it slowly, not in a hurry, this Gongzi will go back to sleep first, hahaha..."
"Wait!" Ximen Qing's forehead was bruised, "Your pair of Shanglian is based on the number 'three', which is obviously embarrassing, and it is clearly a pair of people, I can't say it, but I never believe that someone can actually do it!" As soon as these words came out, many of the thousands of people present nodded slightly, obviously agreeing with Ximen Qing's words!
In fact, Ximen Qing is not the only one who has this idea. After really understanding the difficulty of this uplink, many people have such thoughts, but no one dares to say it out loud like Ximen Qing!
"Hahaha, what a joke!" Ling Tian laughed, the corners of his mouth twitched, and said: "All things in the world, there must be yin and yang, and there must be heaven and earth;
Ximen Qing heard that he had copied the original version of what he had accused him before, and it was even more ironic, and he couldn't help but blush and be embarrassed. "I don't believe anyone can get this uplink!"
"If so, how about the bento?" Ling Tian said in a gloomy voice.
"If Ling Gongzi you can make the couplet, Ximen Qing will bow down in the study of couplets from now on, and never sell the knowledge of couplets again in his life!" First of all, he locked the target on Ling Tian alone, which meant that only Ling Tian could make a number, and no matter who the others were right, it had nothing to do with Ling Tian! The second was that he only said that he was willing to bow down to the couplet and would never play it off again! But he didn't say anything else!
He no longer sells his knowledge of couplets, but he can still sell poems, songs, pianos, chess, calligraphy and paintings! It is equivalent to not much loss to himself, not to mention that the previous "absolute" has already been disgraced, even if there is any "Lianlin" gathering, Ximen Qing may not have the face to participate.
Again, most of the people in the audience today are not stupid, they all heard the meaning of Ximen Qing's words, and for a while, the huge hall booed, and they were very contemptuous of this person's shamelessness and nonsense.
Ximen Qing's face turned pale again, and he turned a deaf ear to the mocking voices around him. He felt that he still had a belly of talent that had not been displayed, how could he admit defeat in person?
Ling Tian sneered, and didn't care about the loopholes in Ximen Qing's words, he had lost patience with this person's shamelessness, and said, "Then you listen well." I've got to go down to ......"
Everyone immediately stretched out their ears, only to hear Ling Tian stretch out his voice and say word by word: "Four poems and elegant songs!"
"Three lights are moon stars, four poems are elegant!"
After a short silence in the field, there was a thunderous sound of color! There is also the "Book of Songs" circulating in this Tianxing Continent, which is no different from the era in which Ling Tian lived, as we all know, the "Book of Songs" is divided into three categories: wind, elegance, and song, but elegance is divided into "big Ya" and "small Ya", so the "four poems" are indispensable!
Not only is it stable, but it is also very suitable for the atmosphere in the field!
Sure enough, it's wonderful!
Ximen Qing's face was completely gray, for a long time, he was conceited and learned, and he was brilliant, and he had never met an opponent. But this long-cultivated pride was actually completely destroyed by Ling Tian's blow in the first scene today!
Among the judges, one of the oldest white-haired Confucians came out of the crowd, looked at Ling Tian with old eyes, and exclaimed: "Ling Gongzi is really a genius in the sky! Brother Qin has such a good disciple, and he has no regrets in this life!"
Mr. Qin's eyes narrowed into a slit, twisted his beard, and looked at Ling Tian with a look of approval and pride on his face. I felt that my face was not only radiant, but also golden.
Ling Tian smiled and said modestly: "Actually, these three lights are called the moon star, it seems that there is not only this one pair of lower links, there are many lower links that can be corrected, such as 'a gust of wind and thunderstorm', 'two dynasties brother state', all can be hehehe, but you haven't thought about it." If you have time to think about it carefully, you will definitely be able to figure it out. ”
"The three lights are the moon star, a gust of wind and thunderstorm, the three lights are the moon star, the two dynasties are brothers;" The old Confucian read it in his mouth a few times, his intuition was full of fragrance, and he smiled and said: "Sure enough, it is the talent of Tianzhong!
Ling Tian smiled again: "When I talk to Ye Qingchen's predecessors in Tsing Yi, he also has a pair, which is even more exciting, and his couplet is 'Six Pulses and Inches'! It is a truly superior work!
Ling Tian's words now have greatly saved face for these great literati who have studied and studied poorly, you must know that Ye Qingchen, a scholar in Tsing Yi, is famous all over the world, and the younger generations may not know, but such as Mr. Qin's first-class figures, he has heard his famous name for a long time, and everyone is grateful to hear Ling Tian "relay" Ye Qingchen to step down for everyone. I can't help but have a great change in my impression of him, and they all feel that such a character has been called the "first gentleman" all the year round, and everyone in the world is blind!
The couplet has reached such a point that it really has no meaning in going on. The judges got together and discussed, and they all made a decision, and immediately moved on to the next link. Sycho!
The dejected talents who had already been hit by Ling Tian suddenly perked up, and they all rubbed their hands, but this time they changed their targets, from Ximen Qing to Ling Tian!
