King Qin was stunned for a moment, and then smiled and said: "What I said is true! I heard that half a year ago, at the longevity festival of His Majesty of your country, Long Wei was a blockbuster, and he was very talented and strategic!"

Long Shaoyang said with a smile: "The prince praises falsely! If it comes to literary talent and martial arts, Long is just above the middle people in Daqi, and he is stronger than Long, it can be said that there are as many as cow hairs, and the number of sand in the Ganges River!"

"Hey, Long Wei is too humble to say this!" Qin King Li Qi suddenly interjected, "Lord Wang, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, it is really a happy event for the two kingdoms of Liangqi to marry Qin and Jin. Taking advantage of the fact that all the handsome people of the Qi Kingdom are here today, the villain has a proposal, I don't know if I should talk about it or not?"

I saw that the man who spoke was burly, about forty-five or sixteen years old, with thick eyebrows and big eyes, and his face was quite weathered.

King Qin glanced at Xiao Minglong, turned his face, and said with a smile: "General Zhonglang, this king and His Royal Highness the Prince of Qi are both lenient people, if you have anything to say, you just say it." "It turns out that this person is the king of Qin's account, and the Zhonglang will be calm.

Calmly arched his hand and said: "Lord Wang, His Royal Highness the Prince, although the villain is a military general, he rolls out of the sea of swords and fires, but he usually has a lot of fun and likes to search for strange things." There is a craftsman in our country, who is the best at making all kinds of strange tricks and tricks, and not long ago made a lock, which is said to be entertaining and intellectual. The villain got the lock by tossing and turning, and after dismantling it, it was difficult to recover it with a lot of effort. ”

Qin Wang Qi said: "Oh, there is such a strange thing?"

nodded calmly and said: "Well, seeing that it can't be restored, the villain spent a lot of money to let the craftsman make another one, thinking about painting a scoop according to the gourd, who knows that after trying a few times, it is still in vain." I heard that all the VIPs of Qi are the best among people, so I want to take the opportunity of this banquet to use the wisdom beads of the VIPs of Qi to restore this lock as before. ”

King Qin hurriedly said: "Oh, what are you still doing in a daze? Hurry up and present it to the king and all the distinguished guests of the Qi country to have a look." ”

"Yes, my lord. Calmly said, high-five three times.

I saw an inner attendant holding a tray, walking in front of King Qin from outside the hall, bowing down and lifting the tray above his head, and two objects were placed on the plate.

King Qin looked intently, only to see that on the tray, there was a thing on the left side, which was composed of six wooden blocks about five inches long, about one inch wide, and about half an inch thick. On the right side are six wooden blocks of equal length, each lacking and uneven, presumably the various parts of the lock that have been disassembled.

King Qin picked up the thing on the left and looked at it in his hand, and then picked up the wooden blocks on the right side to look at it carefully. After a while, he smiled and said, "Sure enough, it's a strange thing, take this thing to all the distinguished guests at the table to see." ”

The waiter agreed, and went to Xiao Minglong's seat with a tray in his hand, Xiao Minglong picked it up and looked at it and put it back in its place, Xiao Yuanying, Jing Si, Long Shaoyang, and Zhu Xibing. followed by several escorts from Xiliang.

After turning around, some shook their heads after looking at it, some took it and looked left and right, but still put it down, some were amazed but didn't do it, and some couldn't help but try it a few times, but finally stopped...... Everyone understands in their hearts: "The so-called banquet is not a good banquet, this is obviously a situation done in advance, it is obviously a consultation, but in fact, it is to see the good looks of the Daqi people." ”

Xiao Yuanying scratched her head and muttered in a low voice: "What is this, a few strange-shaped wooden blocks, no holes and no nails, how to put them together?"

Zhu Xibing became curious, called the waiter, picked up the object on the left side and looked up and down, pulled it with his hand, and found that it was very stable, and after putting it down, he picked up the wooden blocks on the right side, tried to combine and assemble them, exchanged them, picked them up and put them down, and finally shook his head helplessly.

King Qin said proudly: "Distinguished guests of Daqi, your country has always been rich in treasures, and there are many wise people, I don't know if there is a way to restore this set of locks on the right side as before?"

Xiao Minglong looked helpless. Xiao Yuanying muttered quietly, not knowing what to say. Long Shaoyang's face was expressionless and thoughtful. Jing Si lowered his head, raised the wine in his glass, and drank it all. Zhu Xibing's eyebrows tightened, contemplating and thinking.

At the banquet, Xiliang accompanied the guests to see that Qi people were stumped, and they were all very proud, but it was not easy to laugh out loud in person.

At this moment, he suddenly heard someone say: "His Royal Highness King Qin, Long is willing to give it a try." ”

One sentence surprised everyone.

King Qin was stunned and nodded. The attendant hurriedly brought the tray to him.

Long Shaoyang picked up the object on the left side and glanced at it, then put it down, put the six pieces of wood on the right side in a row, and said with a smile: "Zhonglang General, if Long Mou guesses well, this object is called Liuzi Lianfang, also known as Difficult Wood, Mo Naihe, it is based on the mortise and tenon structure of Bagua Metaphysics, which is easy to disassemble and difficult to install." ”

"Long Wei was so discerning that he could name the object. I wonder if it can be restored to the same as before?" smiled calmly and silently, and said lightly.

"It's not hard to recover. Long Shaoyang said as he picked up the wooden block on the right side, only to see that he used both hands together, and his ten fingers kept moving up and down, and in a moment, the six pieces of wood had been combined into one.

"His Royal Highness King Qin, everyone, please take a look. Long Shaoyang held the object in his hand and said.

Everyone raised their eyes and saw that the object in Long Shaoyang's hand was exactly the same as the object on the left side of the plate, and they couldn't help but let out a "huh".

King Qin blinked, glanced at Zuo Shou Shangzi's surprised calmness, seemed to be unwilling, and said to Long Shaoyang: "Long Wei rate, I don't know if there is a trick in this?"

Long Shaoyang smiled and said, "His Royal Highness King Qin, these six sons are in my Daqi, and even the three-year-old Huangkou child can crack it." Turning to calm and said: "General Zhonglang, if you have a chance in the future, you might as well take a trip to my Daqiluo City, there are many children playing with this object on the side of the streets, in the countryside and villages...... It seems difficult, but in fact there are rules to follow" One of the methods is 'cross is the widest, first put together half' ......" at the moment briefly explained the trick and dismantled the lock again.

Xiliang accompanied the guests to listen, someone took the lock, tried it according to the trick, and sure enough, it was restored as before, and Liangren couldn't help but be surprised and admired.

Seeing this, Xiao Minglong said with a smile: "I have lived in the palace for a long time, but I didn't know that this is a game that my children love to play, and I didn't expect it to be transmitted to your country." Although the object is small, it is a symbol of the friendship between the two countries. ”

King Qin was a little embarrassed on his face, and said with a smile: "What His Royal Highness the Crown Prince said is extremely true!" Turning to Xiliang on the table, "Usually, you all regard yourself as literary and martial arts, but today compared with the distinguished guests of Daqi, you are dwarfed, why don't you take this opportunity to toast them with a few more glasses of water and wine, and learn more?"

Xiliang accompanied the guests and agreed, and hurriedly stood up, Zhonglang nodded calmly, and came up one by one to toast Long Shaoyang and others.

Long Shaoyang thought that the prince Xiao Minglong was in danger, and he was afraid that he would get drunk and make a mistake, but Zhonglang came up to toast calmly, drank a few rounds, and said "convenient", so he deliberately staggered and stood up, guided by the Xiliang waiter, and walked to the thatched house in the backyard.
