Chapter 106: Lantern Riddles

Speaking of the Mid-Autumn Festival.

In fact, the origin and the moon are inseparable.

The Mid-Autumn Festival is a remnant of the ancient celestial worship and moon worship customs.

It is a very ancient custom to worship the moon at such a time.

Lin Hao had only heard of the existence of this kind of ritual before, but today he really saw it.

Set up a big incense case, on which are placed moon cakes, watermelons, apples, red dates, grapes and other fruits, so luxurious that the points are not clear.

On top of the incense table, there is a sign that says 'Moon God'.

Not to mention, it's quite particular, saying that this wooden sign has to be in the direction of the moon.

Then the red candles were lit, not incense burned, and then the strangely dressed 'archmage' beckoned everyone to come and pray for blessings.

For this kind of activity that wastes fruits and has no scientific basis, to be honest, Lin Hao actually has no sense of participation.

But when it comes to the word prayer, he still closes his eyes and wishes that his parents can be healthy and live a long life, which must still be done.

It's not just him.

Most of the tourists who gather here do the same.

When Zhou Yaning and the others next to them opened their eyes, the three of them quickly evacuated.

Under the bright lights, they came to the snack street to conduct a large-scale sweep, and they didn't eat dinner, just enough to fill their stomachs.

It's not just snacks.

There are also some stalls that make some festive pastries.

Zhou Ren couldn't help but be curious and bought a few pieces of osmanthus cake, and after eating two bites, he looked disgusted.

In his words, you can eat some osmanthus flavor, but it is not sweet enough, and the taste is like chewing wax.

Lin Hao also tasted it, but he felt that this taste was the closest to the handmade, and the sweet one he ate on weekdays should be sweetened.

But then again, what Zhou Ren said is right, it's true that it's unpalatable.

The three of them were eating and strolling around on this side of the snack street, and Zhou Ren couldn't help but ask when the activities mentioned earlier by Zhou Yaning would start.

Zhou Yaning was just about to speak.

Suddenly, a loud whistle suddenly came from a distance.

The whistle is not blown by a human being, but more like it is emitted by an electronic machine, and it is very penetrating and can be heard in all directions.

It smells of alarm.

But the tourists at the scene did not panic in the slightest.

"It's on, let's hurry up." Hearing this voice, Zhou Yaning immediately said to the two of them.

Lin Hao and Zhou Ren were very curious in their own right.

Naturally, he nodded and followed her.

Soon.

Three people came to their destination.

It is the side of the Zhengyang Hall that I have seen at the beginning.

It's just that at the entrance, a guardrail was pulled up by several security personnel at the moment, and there were many tourists in front of it, but they couldn't get in directly.

On either side of the parapet, there are two long wooden poles, each with a large red lantern hanging from it.

Between the two red lanterns, a piece of white cloth is pulled, on which four large characters are written in unknown calligraphy.

"Half a moon."

Lin Hao was immediately stunned when he saw this.

This is

Guess the lantern riddle?

"This is an event held every year in the film and television city, guess the lantern riddles, from the Zhengyang Hall through the Zhonghe Palace, and then to the Jinyong Palace, a total of 30 levels, each level has a prize after passing, the more difficult it is, the more valuable the prize will be." At this time, Zhou Yaning finally explained.

"Hey, this is kind of interesting, brother, how about you and I broke into it today?" Zhou Ren suddenly became interested when he heard this.

"Didn't you hear Sister Yaning say that the further you go, the more difficult it becomes." Lin Hao glanced at him and said.

"Damn, what are you afraid of, the three of us can come up with it if we think about it together." Zhou Ren didn't take it seriously at all.

"It's not that simple, but you two don't have to stress too much, just treat it as a mini-game." Zhou Yaning said slowly.

"Don't worry, old lady, can a mere lantern riddle still be difficult to catch me, just look at it." Zhou Ren said with a smile.

Lin Hao ignored him.

Look up and look ahead.

Tourists are already starting to be let in by security.

It has already passed this level in this short period of time.

"Let's go too, there is someone to watch at each level, just tell him the answer, there are still few people now, and I won't be able to line up for a while."

Zhou Yaning frowned when he saw this.

Lin Hao and Zhou Ren nodded, and naturally walked quickly towards the front.

At the moment, the mystery of this first level is actually not difficult, and it is a good start.

Even so.

The three of them also struggled to squeeze to the city gate.

The answer to the word 'fat' was whispered to the young lady who was guarding the gate, and then the security guard quickly put it in.

At the same time, someone next to them handed them a small key chain.

This is the prize for level 1.

It's not expensive, but the workmanship is quite exquisite.

After receiving the small gift, the three of them looked back again, and there were more and more people at the door, and they were crowded in an instant, which was extremely spectacular.

"It's a shame that we came early, if we come later, just these people, we have to squeeze for half a day." Zhou Ren said with palpitations.

As he spoke, a number of people were let in behind him.

Seeing this, the three of them smiled bitterly, and could only hurry up and walk towards the second level, as far as the first level was a riddle, there were not many people trapped at all.

It's more about making tourists feel involved, and 90 percent of them have to come in.

So there is no time left for them to chat, if you want not to be crowded, then hurry up and break through, there is no other way.

"Wu."

Compared to level 1.

The difficulty of the second level has suddenly risen.

One word, simple, let you play.

Zhou Ren didn't brag anymore, and he became completely dumb when he first arrived.

Lin Hao guessed it, but before he could speak, Zhou Yaning also thought it out and took the initiative to tell the two of them the answer.

Quickly told the staff the answer to the word 'Fei', and the three of them broke away from the army a little.

But there are still a lot of tourists around me, after all, the difficulty is still hovering above the level of simplicity, and it is difficult for people with quick thinking.

Passed level 2.

The prizes have also changed.

A crystal bracelet that is crystal clear.

Lin Hao and Zhou Ren didn't need it.

It was all given to Zhou Yaning.

"Thank you." In the face of good-looking jewelry, it can be said that women are born without the ability to resist.

"I said, sister, what if someone guesses the answer and tells everyone? Isn't that everyone's got it? Zhou Ren suddenly asked.

"There are a number of gifts for each level, while supplies last, do you think that the film and television city will not think of such a loophole when this event is held?"

Zhou Yaning couldn't help but glance at him.

This brother is good at everything, but his head is not bright enough, and he loves to brag.

But this kind of problem is not new now, she is used to it.

"I said, then we have to hurry up, according to this logic, is there a big prize in the last level?" Zhou Ren asked with his eyes shining.

"Last year, the last hurdle was a cash reward of 500,000, think for yourself." Zhou Yaning looked at him and said.

"500,000? So exaggerated? ”

Zhou Ren couldn't help but be shocked when he heard it, the investor can be described as the father of the big financier.

Lin Hao next to him heard the money, and suddenly felt that his brain could run.

Although 500,000 yuan has no sense of existence compared to the money in his pocket now, in line with the principle of being prepared for danger in times of peace, he must take it when he should take it.

"It's a lot for us, but for the film and television city, this money is nothing at all, it's just to stimulate tourists, and I remember that no one passed the last hurdle last year, and the 500,000 didn't seem to be sent out." Zhou Yaning recalled.

"I'll go, such a dish, it seems that I will have to come to the Mid-Autumn Festival every year in the future."

Zhou Ren hated himself for coming late, and at the same time complained: "I said sister, you should tell me this kind of thing in advance, how many awards you have to miss, maybe it's enough money to buy a house." ”

"It's only been done in the past two years, do you think the prize is so easy to get, it's not easy to pass the first 10 levels, and the back is basically by luck, there are very few people who pass, and there is a time limit, once it is past 12 o'clock in the evening, the event will end immediately."

Zhou Yaning can be regarded as serving his younger brother, full of money.

There are too many tourists to participate in this event, and it is still very difficult to rely on the three of them.

She still wanted the two of them to feel the atmosphere of the game, and she didn't think about how many levels she could go.

"Then what else to say, hurry up, we're already behind." Zhou Ren urged, in front of them, I am afraid that there are hundreds of people.

He said so.

Lin Hao and Zhou Yaning could only follow.

Although it is not running, the current pace of the three of them can be regarded as a race walk.

When they came to the third level, they also hurriedly looked up at the lantern riddle.

"It's not going to work."

Quite interesting four words.

The riddle directly declares sovereignty.

It can only be said that one level is more difficult than the other.

"What kind of riddle is this, it's too difficult." Zhou Ren saw it and went directly to Sparta, this road is not passable, this is really not passable.

"Let me think about it."

Zhou Yaning also pondered.

Lin Hao stepped forward directly and told them the answer.

The two of them suddenly lit up and looked at him in surprise.

"Yes, brother, you're still a little talented." Zhou Ren immediately said approvingly.

"It's you, why don't you guess one and take a look." Zhou Yaning glared at him.

"Didn't I guess the first level, these are too difficult, don't worry, sister, you wait for me to exert your strength later." Zhou Ren said.

Zhou Yaning listened to the black line, there was no play in the first few levels, what kind of power could he exert in the back, it was a game between him and Lin Hao.

Say the answer 'toe'.

The third level was also passed without a hitch.

This time, the prize is a small weapon with reduced proportions, knives, guns, sticks, and small weapons, which are exactly the same as the props provided by the film and television city, which is quite commemorative.

The three of them chose one by one, but unfortunately they were not able to get together.

After the third level, there were not many tourists in front of them, only a few dozen or so.

In fact, the time for answering the questions is not much different, but it is more that the entrance time of the first level is a little staggered.
