Chapter Twenty-Six: The Puzzle
"Everyone, everyone!"
"I'm really sorry, the slave family wants to disturb your precious time and announce a great happy event."
Just as Li Luodi and Lu Meng were thinking, they saw the old bustard walking to the center of the stage on the first floor with a smile and announcing to everyone.
Seeing this, all the surrounding players gathered next to the bustard.
"What's the great news? Could it be Mother Qin, you are going to pick up guests today! ”
The middle-aged wealthy businessman with a big belly, holding a scantily clad Qinlou girl in his arms, scolded with a smile.
"If that's the case, my son will definitely have a good show."
"Although Mother Qin is a little older, she is definitely much better than these girls."
"It's, it's, that's the good news! Hurry up and announce, don't sell it, uncle is busy? ”
Listening to the foul words coming from his ears, Qin Xiang's eyes flashed with disgust, but they were well hidden, and he immediately quipped, "Ouch, lords, don't make fun of me." ”
"That's right, some time ago, Miss Min Yue, who was not unwell, was infected with wind and cold, and recuperated for a while, and after careful conditioning by the doctor, she finally recovered as before."
"Therefore, in order to celebrate, Miss Min Yue decided to draw a son, tonight, you can talk with candles in her boudoir, the beautiful scenery, the spring night is worth a thousand gold, and you can also make an overly demanding request!"
When Qin Xiang's voice fell, it exploded in the crowd in an instant.
"What, I heard you right! Miss Min Yue will draw one lucky person today, isn't that me? ”
"Oh my God, I can make a request, am I..."
"I've heard that Min Yuefang has been famous for a long time, and today I finally have the opportunity to see Fang Rong."
"Go, as if you can have a chance, with thief eyebrows and short eyes." A middle-aged man with a pockmarked face glanced at the lewd man next to him with disdain, and then took out the mirror from his arms, indulging in his beauty.
On the second floor, Li Luodi raised his eyebrows, looked at such a scene, and said to Lu Meng in confusion, "Who is this Min Yue?" It's so popular. ”
Hearing this, Lu Meng cleared his throat and said, "Nian you are new to the city, Elder Ben will popularize it for you, this Min Yue came to Yihong Courtyard a year ago, and it is because of her arrival that Yihong Courtyard, which is on the verge of bankruptcy, comes back to life." ”
"I heard that she has a beautiful face, and it is not too much to describe it as a sinking fish and a goose, and she is a country and a city, she does not sell her body and plays the piano well."
"It is rumored that there are several aristocratic sons in the capital, who want to use some indiscriminate means to bully her, and will be taught a very bad lesson in the end, one of the second sons of the Ministry of Rites was broken by a maid next to Min Yue because of his disrespectful words, and after going back, the man cried to his father with a sad face, and the final result was that the second son was locked up by his father for three months and was not allowed to go out."
"Therefore, it is rumored in the rivers and lakes that this Min Yue has a very heavy backer in the capital."
Hearing this, Li Luodi was silent, rubbing his chin, not knowing what he was thinking.
It seems that this Min Yue has a transcendent status in Yihong Courtyard, and if she can make a request to her, wouldn't she be able to borrow Xiaofang for her use.
"Don't worry, everyone, you all know that Miss Min Yue doesn't sell her body, and it's not difficult to meet Min Yue, as long as anyone can solve this puzzle in a stick of incense, then whoever can kiss Fangze." Qin Xiang comforted everyone and said with a smile.
Immediately, he stopped selling the guanzi, and quickly let people hang out the puzzle.
Seeing this, everyone's eyes were drawn to it.
I saw that the puzzle was, there are eighteen on the left, eighteen on the right, eight for twenty-four, and eight for one.
Hiss, as soon as the question came out, everyone suddenly gasped, this is too difficult! There is no idea at all.
"Alas, I don't understand it at all, if you want me to say, it's better to bid directly, whoever has the money can go to see Miss Min Yue." A wealthy businessman racked his brains, but he couldn't think of it, so he couldn't help complaining.
"Turtles, they smell of copper."
Hearing this, a reader next to him said disdainfully.
"Stinky boy, don't you want to live anymore?" Seeing that the scholar was mocking him, the rich merchant was furious.
Seeing this, the scholar didn't bother to pay attention to him, and devoted himself to solving the problem.
As soon as the problem came out, after everyone complained for a short time, they continued to devote themselves to solving the problem.
"This question is quite interesting, eighteen on the left, eighteen on the right!"
Li Luodi's dark eyes flashed with a fine light, and he muttered to himself.
"What? Can you figure it out? Lu Meng picked up a cup of flower tea, drank it all, and asked casually.
This question is really difficult, but he is a human being in two lives, but he was fortunate to see the answer to this puzzle in his previous life.
"There are already answers!" Li Luodi picked up the teapot, added a cup to Lu Meng, and poured it for himself.
"Huh!" Hearing this, Lu Meng smiled and didn't speak.
Young people are still too young to like to be in the limelight on such occasions.
In the field, half of the incense has passed, but still no one can solve it.
Qin Xiang stood in the middle of the field calmly, and did not urge them. Immediately asked someone to bring a chair, took out a handful of melon seeds from his arms, lay down comfortably, and swallowed.
During this period, many people thought of many answers for the sake of so-called face, but they were undoubtedly wrong.
In a small attic in the backyard of Yihong Courtyard,
A little girl dressed up obediently asked an extremely beautiful woman next to her, "Miss, do you think that white-faced boy surnamed Li outside can solve this puzzle?" ”
She knows that many teachers at Hallym Academy may not be able to solve this problem in a short time.
Hearing this, the woman put down the Zhongshujun in her hand and turned around, the woman was in excellent shape, with a face that captivated the country, her face was like a silver plate, her eyes were like apricots, her lips were red without dotting, her eyebrows were green without painting, and the peach was dying, scorching her beauty.
"Who knows? If he can solve it, then I might as well sell his personal favor, if he can't solve it, then his name on the list of nineteen is not a waste of fame, and this kind of person is not worth our effort to dig up. ”
This woman is Min Yue, the top brand of Yihong Courtyard.
"However, to be favored by this crazy woman is not so stupid."
"If Miss Ben pried the corner of the wall and dug it up, she must have a wonderful face!"
Min Yue walked up to the maid Qingxiaoya, gently pinched her pink face, and smiled when the other party pouted in protest.
Lobby on the first floor,
Seeing that the incense was about to burn out, Qin Xiang was not in the mood to continue to eat melon seeds, so he got up from the chair and said temptingly, "Ladies and gentlemen, think about it again, if you answer correctly, you will be able to meet the dream lover of more than eighty percent of the men in the capital. ”
"Think about it, you can make an overly demanding request, which in normal times, no amount of money can buy it!"
Although the truth is like this, the people present really can't think of the answer to the puzzle, and there may be a high school student this year.
''I'll try it!'' “
At this moment, a clear and powerful voice came.
I saw Li Luodi slowly walking from the second floor to the center of the lobby on the first floor in Lu Meng's stunned expression.
"Damn, this kid is so calm, he shouldn't know the answer!"
Lu Meng saw that Li Luodi looked confident, and immediately touched his sheep's horn beard.
"Who is this? Haven't seen it! ”
"I don't know, I guess it's which boy and brother are coming to show their faces and go through the motions."
''Brother, if you can't do it, go down if you can't do it, don't pretend to be thirteen here.'' “
Seeing that Li Luo's brother Yushu was in the wind, he walked down gracefully, and the men were all jealous, this appearance was too handsome.
As for women, they are starry in their eyes and have a high appearance, which can be eaten from ancient times to the present.
"Sister Qin, this time is not over yet, I don't know if I can answer the question below." Li Luodi ignored the voice next to him and smiled at Qin Xiangzuo.
"Of course!" Qin Xiang said with a smile, Li Luodi's handsome appearance did add a lot of points to him, and Li Luodi's mouth was also very sweet.
After receiving a positive answer, Li Luodi stepped forward, took the brush in the hand of the handyman, and in the blank space of the puzzle, the pen walked the dragon and snake, and completed it in one go.
After writing, he stepped aside and smiled at Qin Xiang, "There are eighteen on the left, which is the wood of wood, and eighteen on the right is also the wood of wood, two four get eight, in the Jiangnan area of the Ming Zhou Dynasty, the four over there are X, the two X's are the yao, and the eight is the big character, so the composition of one word is Fan." ”
''Sister Qin, am I right?'' ”
Hearing this, Qin Xiang looked shocked, and immediately her eyes were like water, she came to Li Luodi's side, and continued to rub the latter with her murder weapon, admiringly, "Childe is really amazing, such a difficult puzzle was actually solved by Childe." ”
Listening to Li Luodi's explanation, and then looking at the Fan character written on the question, his head turned a little faster, and after figuring it out, he stroked his palms and admired.
This time, they lost unjustly, because this x does have the name of four in Jiangnan, so this question not only burns the brain, but also accounts for geographical knowledge.
"In this way, it will be bothering Sister Qin to lead the way." Brother Li Luodi pulled out his hand without leaving a trace and said with a smile.
"Don't be anxious, the night is long, and the slave family will lead you over." Qin Xiang saw that Li Luodi pulled his hand out of his arms again, and his mouth pursed slightly, with a look of resentment.
In the eyes of envy, jealousy and hatred on everyone's faces, Li Luodi arched his hand to the surroundings and was about to leave.
At this moment, a voice sounded, "This brother, can you give me this opportunity, and my son will definitely give you a satisfactory reward." ”
