Chapter 20 Remember, my name is Xia Jingyun
"Question 1, anagram, riddle: blade."
"Question 2, anagrams, puzzles: the top is not on the top, the bottom is not on the bottom, it cannot be on the top, and it should be on the bottom."
shouted loudly with a loud voice, Xia Jingyun and Zheng Tianyu picked up the pen at the same time, and then put down the pen at the same time.
The old man guarding the gate first looked at Zheng Tianyu and nodded slightly, not surprised.
Immediately glanced at Xia Jingyun again, raised his eyebrows slightly, and stretched out his hand to signal the two to agree correctly.
And at this time, the mystery of the loud voice had just been read.
The discussion rang out, and everyone looked at the two people who walked forward in surprise and surprise.
What's the situation?
This Xia Jingyun actually answered?
It's not just a random answer, but a correct answer?
Does it mean that he actually had a draw with Zheng Tianyu at this level?
"It should be that he specializes in this anagram on weekdays, so he dares to take the initiative to add a question."
"Exactly! But he didn't know that he practiced hard day and night, and he still couldn't compare to Zheng Gongzi's casual study, and he couldn't beat Zheng Gongzi in the end! β
"Yes, after this level, he will not have that kind of good thing in the future!"
Xu Dapeng listened to the words of these people, speechless for a while, and muttered obscure words such as "Are you cheering up outside the door or pushing your back in the back".
The second level, couplet.
This time, Zheng Tianyu took the initiative to propose: "This couplet is not compared to anagrams, there is no answer, it is difficult to measure, why don't you and I each have a couplet, and the other party will pair it, which can also be regarded as mutual harmony and elegance?" β
Xia Jingyun smiled slightly, "Yes, please come out right." β
Look at that meaning, it is actually to take Zheng Tianyu's trick first!
Zheng Tianyu's eyes closed slightly, and he tapped his palm, "The golden thread willow by the Jinshui River, the golden thread willow wears the goldfish mouth." β
The Confucian guard bowed slightly, twisted his beard and smiled, Zheng Tianyu is really good at learning, this kind of thimble is quite difficult, this young man is afraid that he will not be able to catch it.
And the scholars also lamented the difficulty of this link, and at the same time secretly mourned for Xia Jingyun.
I just answered a word puzzle correctly, and now I finally have to show my original form under real kung fu.
These thoughts were only a moment, and before they could discuss them, they heard a clear and calm voice chanting:
"Hosta flowers outside the jade railing, hosta flowers are inserted into jade heads."
The guard's hand stiffened, and he pulled off two of his beards.
Right?
He recited it, and it was really right!
So fast?
On such occasions, the ingenuity of this couplet alone can make this person famous.
He couldn't help but turn his head, wanting to take a closer look at this person's face, but saw Xia Jingyun smile and said, "Then it's my turn?" β
Zheng Tianyu still looked light, "Please." β
Xia Jingyun really wanted to have a [Smoke Lock Pond Willow] to bully the other party, but considering an extreme situation, he still forgot it and said: "The sky is close to the mountain, and the sky is farther to the mountainside." β
The Confucian guards squinted slightly, and it turned out to be a superimposed couplet.
Zheng Tianyu was also stunned, and immediately groaned.
Xia Jingyun didn't rush either, and waited silently.
The people around were holding their breath, and for a while, the whole field was silent.
Time passes little by little, and many people are surprised to realize a problem:
Even if Zheng Tianyu is right now, he has already surpassed Xia Jingyun in the time, which means that the first son of Surabaya Prefecture has never been compared?
Moreover, this has to be a situation that Zheng Tianyu can match.
If it doesn't match......
Many people couldn't help but shudder, not daring to think about it.
Finally, after a moment of silence, Zheng Tianyu spoke: "The moon floats on the surface of the water and the moon sinks to the bottom of the water. β
As soon as these words came out, a relieved voice sounded all around.
Zheng Tianyu was not angry, but smiled: "I didn't expect Your Excellency to have such a talent, it seems that I have good luck today." β
Xia Jingyun was not proud, he was also calm and gentle, "I think so too." β
"Shall we proceed then?"
"Okay."
At the third level, the old man pointed to the remaining signs in the tray on the table, and motioned to the two to choose one.
Zheng Tianyu smiled and said, "This time, or choose two?" β
Xia Jingyun thought for a while, "It's better to choose one." β
Everyone was disdainful, and sure enough, those little cleverness ran out, and they began to admit it.
But before the mocking smile was revealed, I heard the second half of Xia Jingyun's sentence, "One problem, let's try to do two solutions." Of course, one is also considered passable. β
Zheng Tianyu smiled, "Interesting, that's it." β
After speaking, Zheng Tianyu didn't move, and looked at the old man, "Then trouble Qian Lao to help us turn one at will." β
The old man glanced at Xia Jingyun, and Xia Jingyun also said that he had no objection, so the old man raised his hand and flipped through it.
"The question says: One hundred steamed buns and one hundred monks, three big monks are more indisputable, three small monks are divided into one, and how many small monks are each?"
The two of them immediately picked up the pen and calculated.
Soon, both turned in their first answers.
The answer is the same: a big monk and three small monks are grouped, then each group of four people has four steamed buns, and there are twenty-five groups of one hundred monks, then there are twenty-five big monks and seventy-five small monks.
The idea is the same, the answers are all correct, and the time is close.
But neither of them stopped writing, but began to think of the next solution.
Xia Jingyun subconsciously wanted to use the equation to solve it, but thinking that there was no such thing in this year, he thought about it for a while and used the chicken and rabbit cage method.
So, it soon became a solution again.
When he was done, he stopped his pen and looked at Zheng Tianyu.
Zheng Tianyu saw that he had finished writing, and simply put the pen in his hand, "Your Excellency is also accomplished in the art of counting, and you are ashamed of yourself." β
"Don't worry, Prince Zhongming." The old man who guarded the gate reached out and took Xia Jingyun's second answer, "This son's answer is not necessarily right. β
The old man looked at it carefully, put it down silently, and looked at Zheng Tianyu, "Now you can be in a hurry." β
Zheng Tianyu: ......
All around, onlookers swallowed their saliva silently.
Zheng Gongzi admits defeat?
How can it be!
But even if they don't want to believe it, it's happening in front of their eyes.
The young man who was wearing extremely ordinary clothes, was not well-known, and was good-looking, easily wrote two solutions, but Zheng Tianyu did not write it, and took the initiative to stop writing and admit defeat.
This is a fact that countless people have seen with their own eyes.
Even so, there are still people who say stubbornly: "It's just some strange and obscene skills, and after all, I still have to return to the avenue of poetry and literature." β
"That's right! The great Confucians have said that the first three levels are just taste. In the end, Wen Kui's competition still has to fall on poetry. β
"But this man is still really powerful! Unexpectedly, the three levels won Zheng Gongzi two levels. β
"It's all said, that's the side door. He can't be better than Zheng Gongzi in poetry, right? β
"Yes."
There was a lot of discussion all around, and it inevitably reached the ears of the two.
The reason why Zheng Tianyu conceded defeat so directly was also with the same idea, anyway, the first three levels don't need to be counted, and he has already determined that he can't compare, so there is no need to spend his brains anymore.
As for composing poetry, hehe, who is already famous for his poetic talent, has full confidence to pick up the little face he has just lost.
He smiled and said, "I wonder if your excellency's poems are as proficient as counting and couplets?" β
Xia Jingyun frowned, "You shouldn't have much trouble winning." β
Zheng Tianyu smiled slightly, "Your Excellency's self-confidence is rare. β
When he came to the fourth level, that is, the poetry level, Xia Jingyun suddenly said: "Zheng Gongzi, don't you still know my name?" β
Zheng Tianyu was stunned for a moment, and then he was a little embarrassed.
Xia Jingyun spoke slowly and said loudly: "My surname is Xia, my name is Jingyun, my name is Gaoyang, and I am from Wanfu County, Jianning County. β
Zheng Tianyu had no choice but to arch his hand.
The Confucian guard smiled and asked, "Do you two turn it yourself, or will the old man help you turn it?" β
Xia Jingyun looked at Zheng Tianyu, still looking like I could do it.
After a few blows, Zheng Tianyu inevitably felt a little annoyed in his heart, and won a little sideways, and he really thought he was finished!
I'll let you know in a while, what is the insurmountable peak of a generation in Surabaya Prefecture!
He reached out and flipped over a piece.

On the high platform, a big Confucian said in a deep voice: "The two of them prepare separately!" β
