Chapter 9: Embarrassment

When the pedestrians on the street heard that someone was going to guess the lantern riddle, they were immediately interested and rushed over.

Especially when I heard that the identities of the two parties in the competition were unusual, one of them was Qiao Chen'an, who was known as a talented man and had been admitted as a student of the famous government academy, and the other was Lin Fei, the only son of Lin Dafu, the richest local man, and I was even more curious.

Everyone came one after another, so it was not lively, and for a while, the whole street was almost blocked.

In such a battle, Qiao Chen'an secretly smacked his tongue, in fact, it is normal to think about it, in this era of extreme lack of entertainment projects, the people can only watch the excitement to pass the time.

Lin Fei saw that the people around him were gathering more and more, and the smile on his face was even worse, what he wanted was this kind of effect, it was only happy to humiliate Qiao Chen'an in front of so many people!

The incense dust rose curly, Qiao Chenan looked up, and saw that the first lantern read "White Snake crosses the river, a round of red sun on his head", the riddle is an item, the corner of his mouth couldn't help showing a smile, and said without thinking: "The bottom of this riddle is an oil lamp!"

The stall owner was stunned for a moment, and said in his heart that you guessed too fast, at this speed, these five lanterns are not something that can be guessed in a moment, and he reluctantly shouted with a black face: "Childe Dacai, this question is guessed correctly!"

"Okay!

The people around him suddenly let out a burst of cheers, and secretly said that he was worthy of being a well-known talent, and he really had some real skills.

Almost at the moment when Qiao Chen'an's voice fell, Lin Fei on the other side shouted: "The riddle of this question is the word 'day'!"

The title of his question is "Writing the time square, painting the time is round, the east time is short, and the summer time is long." ”。

Xu Xian was originally happy that Qiao Chen'an was the first to guess a question, but when he saw this, his face was bitter, and he exclaimed: "How can he ...... so fast?"

As a result, there are only three lanterns left.

Qiao Chenan glanced at Lin Fei, and said in his heart that although this person was arrogant, he also had some ability, and looked up at the lamp next to him, but saw that it was written: "Oolong lying on the wall, wearing ten thousand points of Venus." ”。

This riddle and the previous riddle can just make a couplet, but it is very interesting, Qiao Chenan has already made up his mind to let Lin Fei have a long memory, naturally there will be no water release, but still said without hesitation: "The bottom of this puzzle is a weighing rod." ”

"...... right"

The stall owner was powerless, and secretly calculated in his heart, but in an instant, he had already lost hundreds of yuan......

Lin Fei over there was thinking hard about the riddle of the second question, and when he saw that Qiao Chenan actually guessed the second question so quickly, he couldn't help but feel a little flustered, if he let this kid guess one more, wouldn't he lose this game?

His forehead was sweating profusely, and he had lost all the confidence he had before.

"Gongzi Qiao is really a god!"

"This riddle guessing is too fast!"

Everyone was amazed, and they all looked at Qiao Chen'an in disbelief.

"Brother Lin, can you do it, Brother Qiao has guessed the second one, if you don't hurry up, you will lose!" On the side, Li Quan deliberately shouted.

"What's the noise!"

Lin Fei shouted, frowning, he could only hope that the latter riddle would be more difficult, Qiao Chenan couldn't guess it for a while, but the result was destined to disappoint him.

After Qiao Chen'an guessed this question, he didn't stop for a moment, his eyes moved to the next lantern, and he saw the book "Sunset incense is remnant, avoid a little mortal heart", and said indifferently: "The riddle of this third question is the word 'bald'!"

"Again......

The stall owner almost squeezed out these two words from between his teeth, tonight he lost a lot, to say that he is the most unlucky person, I don't know what kind of evil he made, he actually provoked these two gods.

"Great, win!"

After hearing the stall owner's words, Xu Xian's group of people suddenly shouted excitedly, five riddles, Qiao Chenan had already guessed three of them, and the results of the game were self-evident.

The shouts of everyone fell into Lin Fei's ears, but it was like a ghost's soul hook, and it suddenly went dark in front of him, Qiao Chenan had already guessed three, and he had already lost this game!

"Hey, how does this head grow Qiao Gongzi, why don't I Niu Er have such a head!" said a young man in the crowd enviously.

When the people next to him heard this, they immediately laughed, and one said: "Niu Er, if you want to say that you are good at chopping wood and farming, but in this matter of studying, a hundred of you Niu Er is not as good as a Qiao Da talent!"

"Hehe, that's, that's, Qiao Gongzi is the one who wants to take the top prize, and I admire Niu Er very much!" Niu Er touched his head and smiled.

"Qiao Gongzi is really a god! The speed of this guess is too fast!"

"You don't look at who Qiao Gongzi is, that's the first place in our Qiantang County children's exam, guessing the lantern riddle is not a piece of cake!"

......

The onlookers shouted excitedly, faintly mixed with praise such as "worthy of being a prodigy", "Qiao Gongzi is the reincarnation of Wenqu Xing", and some bold and hot girls kept throwing flattering eyes at Qiao Chen'an, their eyes were full of admiration.

"You lost. ”

Qiao Chen'an's expression was indifferent.

The cigarette curls and steames, but only one-fifth of it burns!

The short three words were like a sledgehammer smashing into Lin Fei's mind, his eyes were black, and he almost fainted on the spot, he never thought that he would lose in the hands of Qiao Chen'an!

He has never liked poetry and songs, but he prefers some miscellaneous nonsense, especially when it comes to guessing riddles, he is quite good at guessing, and there is no reason to lose, but he didn't expect to be defeated in Qiao Chen'an's hands in a moment, which is something he never thought of!

The reason why he will have such a lantern riddle competition with Qiao Chenan tonight is that in addition to wanting to kill Qiao Chen'an in front of Jiaona, there is another more important reason.

Father Lin Dafu earned such a large family business in just a few years, and in the eyes of outsiders, he is a real "nouveau riche", and he is naturally inevitably deducted as a nouveau riche, a rich man.

In the context of the industry of "Shinong Industry and Commerce" in this era, what he hates the most is those self-proclaimed scholars, especially Qiao Chen'an, who is the leader among them, and he is the object of his hatred.

Tonight's guessing battle can be said to be a vent of frustration in his heart, but it's just ......

He guessed the beginning correctly, but he didn't guess the end.

The figure in front of him shook, Qiao Chen'an's figure had already appeared in front of him, Lin Feiqiang couldn't hold back the unhappiness in his heart, and said coldly: "Brother Qiao is talented, junior brother admires." ”

After that, he wanted to turn around and leave.

Who knew that Qiao Chenan smiled and said, "Brother Lin, I don't know who won the lantern riddle guessing competition tonight?"

Lin Fei suddenly had a bad premonition in his heart, coughed unnaturally, and said with a dry smile: "Naturally, Brother Qiao has won!"

But seeing a hint of a smile on Qiao Chenan's face, he said lightly: "Brother Lin, shouldn't you have forgotten the rules set by you and me before the game?

After saying that, he deliberately made a look of 'I forgot'.

Lin Fei said with a dark face: "Naturally, I haven't forgotten ......."

With so many people watching, it was difficult for him to slip away, and he was angry in his heart, but he forcibly suppressed him, bowed his head and said in a voice that only two people could hear: "As long as you are willing to let me go, I will send someone to give you a hundred taels of silver tomorrow!"

The smile in Qiao Chen'an's eyes was even worse, and he secretly said that this guy deserves to have a good father, and a hundred taels of silver were actually smashed out so casually, and if someone else changed, he might really compromise.

It's a pity that his answer is destined to disappoint Lin Fei.

Qiao Chenan pretended to be surprised and said: "Brother Lin, what do you think of me Qiao! A gentleman promises a thousand gold, if I accept your one hundred taels of silver today, won't I become a villain who breaks his promise! You are harming me!"

When he said this, he deliberately amplified his voice, and almost all the onlookers heard it, and they all looked at Lin Fei with ugly faces, they had long known about the gambling agreement between the two, but they never thought that Lin Fei actually wanted to repay the debt......

Lin Fei almost spit out a mouthful of old blood in anger, and the disdainful gazes of everyone on the street pierced him like hundreds of thousands of steel needles, and he couldn't wait to find a crack in the ground and plunge into it, and he had already scolded Qiao Chen'an in his heart, this kid was definitely intentional just now, otherwise why use such a loud voice, just to make him ugly in front of everyone.

Although the meaning of the words seems to be saying that he is doing this to make him a villain, if you think about it carefully, you will find that Qiao Chen'an is secretly scolding him for being the real shameless villain, he has made a gambling contract before, but at this time he wants to take a hundred taels of silver to calm people, isn't it a ready-made villain's behavior!?

Lin Fei was furious in his heart, his eyes almost wanted to breathe fire, and he gritted his teeth and said, "What a talented Qiao man, how are you going?"

Qiao Chen'an no longer had a smile on his face, and said lightly: "Brother Lin, there is an old saying in our hometown called 'don't play if you can't afford to lose', and there are many neighbors to testify, Brother Lin shouldn't want to regret it, right?"

"Why is this so familiar?" suddenly shouted someone in the crowd.

"Hey, isn't this what Lin Dagongzi said before the game!"

Only then did everyone remember that Lin Fei had just said something like this before the game, but within half a burnt of incense, the plot was completely reversed, and a group of people suddenly burst into laughter.

The group of people behind Lin Fei who were still invincible earlier almost drooped their heads to the ground at this time, and they wanted to disappear on the spot immediately.

Almost no one noticed the loophole in Qiao Chen'an's words, only Jiao Na's expression on the side moved slightly.

Lin Fei's face was almost black to the bottom of the pot, and in front of everyone's eyes, he could only smash his teeth and swallow it in his stomach, snorted coldly, almost word by word popped out of his mouth, gritted his teeth and said: "Student Lin Fei has seen the teacher!"

After saying that, he bowed respectfully, and then walked into the distance without saying a word, and everyone behind him hurriedly followed, this person is a big loss tonight, and he doesn't want to stay here for a moment!

"Happy! This Lin Fei is used to being arrogant on weekdays, and today he can be regarded as falling into the hands of Qiao Gongzi!"

"He doesn't look at who is challenged, Qiao Gongzi is a genius-like character, and he can compare!"

Looking at the gray appearance of Lin Fei and the others, the onlookers all laughed.

Lin Fei and the group of people left far away, and they seemed to be able to hear everyone's ridicule in their ears, and when they reached the dark part of the alley, he slammed his fist into the wall on the side, and said fiercely: "Lao Tzu, I have never been bullied like this since I was born, Qiao Chen'an, right, you wait for me!"

When the people who traveled with him saw that his eyes were split, he looked like he was going to eat people, and they knew that he was angry, and they didn't even dare to breathe.

After a long time, Lin Fei covered his hand beating the wall and cried out in pain......
