Chapter 117: Sleepless All Night
Not surprisingly, the other two Chang'e fairies who threw handkerchiefs to Sima Bai also failed, and their handkerchiefs all fell on the young man not far from Sima Bai. Pen Γ fun Γ Pavilion www. ο½ο½ο½ο½ο½ο½ γ ο½ο½ο½ο½
After three handkerchiefs in a row went astray, everyone vaguely guessed what had happened. So next, the distance of two zhang around Sima Bai became a golden zone, and everyone squeezed towards him......
Finally arrived at the last handkerchief, and the girl who threw the handkerchief did not give up, and still set Sima Bai as the target.
Sima Bai's subordinates exerted a slight force and once again used the flame knife. Although the flame knife is ethereal and powerful, as long as the strength is well controlled, it can not damage the handkerchief in the slightest, which can also be seen that Sima Bai's control of internal force is more perfect.
The last handkerchief changed course again in the lost eyes of the girl on the stage, and floated towards the others. Ouyang Lanfu, who had been standing next to Sima Bai, breathed a sigh of relief, her little hand patted her chest, and the heart she had been carrying finally fell back into her stomach safely.
Although Sima Bai has always been very good to her, for some reason, he just hasn't accepted her. This time, when she saw seven girls who were not weaker than her throwing handkerchiefs to Sima Bai to show her goodwill, she was really a little afraid that Sima Bai had fallen in love with one of them, so she reached out and took the handkerchief. However, the final result was quite satisfactory to her, Sima Bai did not accept anyone, so she still had a chance~
Ouyang Lanfu subconsciously reached out to hold Sima Bai's arm, this was the first time she had made such an intimate gesture to Sima Bai, so her little face was slightly red, and her heart was like a deer colliding.
Sima Bai's body stiffened slightly, hesitated for a moment, and did not break free of Ouyang Lanfu's little hand.
Let's use her as a backstopper!
Sima Bai looked apologetically at the seven girls on the stage staring at Ouyang Lanfu beside him with jealousy and envy, and secretly thought in his heart.
Sima Bai's trouble was solved, but he was not kind, and even pushed the last 'trouble' to Ximen Qing, who was watching the play on the sidelines!
I saw an orange handkerchief embroidered with peony flowers, staggering towards Ximenqing.
Ximen Qing was just about to subconsciously pick it up with his hand, when a pink figure suddenly appeared in his mind. As if being burned, Ximen Qing quickly withdrew his half-stretched right hand, and seeing that the handkerchief fell on him, he decisively performed Ling Bo Wei Step and took a big step to the side.
And the person behind Ximenqing found that Ximenqing in front of him suddenly disappeared, and he rubbed his eyes with his hands in a daze, and then looked carefully, the person was gone, leaving a yellow handkerchief empty. This person subconsciously stretched out his hand to catch it, and there was still a woman's unique fragrance on the handkerchief, which was fragrant and fragrant, and the fragrance was better than Lan, refreshing people's hearts.
"Haha! Congratulations to Brother Lu for receiving the handkerchief!!" Chaoxu applauded and congratulated.
In the end, the person who received the handkerchief of the 'Chang'e Fairy' was Du Yu Hou Lu Di, who followed all the way and protected Zhao Xu's safety!
At this time, Lu Di hadn't reacted yet, and he muttered in his mouth: "The body is so fast!" He was still in the time period when Ximen Qing 'flashed'......
β¦β¦
"Whew! it's finally over!" Ximen Qing was lazy, holding his head in his hands, and he and Chaoxu walked along the Bianhe River in the direction of Sima Bai's run.
Sima Bai, as the focus of the scene, disappeared without a trace when the seven handkerchiefs were all mastered, and disappeared without a trace when those people came to power; Lu Di was more depressed, and he won such a grand prize without any feeling, so he had to be pushed up by Chaoxu to accept the award.
When Chaoxu heard Ximenqing's words, he seemed to be lacking in interest, and sighed: "Why can't you ask who the musician who made up the song is?......
"Some people, don't deliberately look for it, don't force yourself to find it, we have to go with the flow, go with the flow! Maybe one day he will appear in front of you!" Ximenqing said with relief.
"There are times in life when you have to have it, and there are times in life when you don't have to force it. Chaoxu nodded, "Brother Simon is right, let everything go naturally." β
Chaoxu and Ximenqing walked forward for nearly a cup of tea, and finally found Sima Bai and Ouyang Lanfu in a small square for viewing lanterns. At this time, they were guessing lantern riddles there.
Lantern riddles were first developed from riddles, which originated in the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, when they were called "hidden words" and "Wenyi riddles". It is a kind of literary game full of ridicule, discipline, humor, and laughter. At that time, some lobbyists, out of interest considerations, often did not state their original intentions when persuading the king, but borrowed other language to hint and enlighten them. This kind of "hidden" discourse was called "Geng Ci" (εΊ means hidden), also called "hidden language" at that time.
After the Qin and Han dynasties, this kind of atmosphere became more prevalent, and the inscription on the stele of Cao E in the Western Han Dynasty was "Huang Juan's young woman's grandson Yan Jiu", and the shooting "wonderful words" was "hidden words". "Wenxin Carving Dragons" points out that "since the Wei Dynasty...... And the gentleman mocked and turned into a riddle". In the Tang and Song dynasties, "Wenyi riddles" developed day by day, and there were more people making riddles and guessing riddles. (In fact, in the Southern Song Dynasty, every Lantern Festival, literati and ink writers wrote riddles on the yarn lanterns for people to guess.) The festivals and times in this article are not based on history. οΌ
Guessing lantern riddles is sometimes said to be "spotlight riddles", so you will often see hints such as "shoot a word, so-and-so place name" after the riddle.
At this time, it was getting late, and there were not many people guessing the lantern riddles, plus Sima Bai and Ouyang Lanfu were less than ten people.
Chaoxu was playful, and said to Ximenqing: "Brother Ximen, why don't we try to guess the lantern riddles, how about it? Whoever loses the night's supper will be invited by him!"
Ximenqing also often guessed riddles in later generations, so he was not afraid: "Okay! β
I've seen ten times more riddles than you've memorized, so you're waiting for an eye-opener.
Ximen Qing held his head high and took the lead in the first light.
'Red Rabbit' (Shot 1)
Ximenqing's face turned red, and this first riddle stumped him. Well, this time the awesome didn't fit it well!
Lantern riddles, although it belongs to the art and literature trail, but from astronomy, down to geography, through history, ancient and modern knowledge, all-encompassing, not a certain cultural literacy, not easy to guess; Now Ximenqing is fully open, and his brain cells are running at full speed~
Zhao Xu saw that Ximen Qing was silent for a long time and couldn't answer, so he jokingly said: "Okay, no, I'll come first." β
"How can a man say no!" Ximenqing replied, and at the same time, a flash of inspiration flashed in his mind, and he thought of the answer.
Red rabbit, isn't it a horse?
"The answer is Chi, Chitu, Ma Ye!" Ximenqing snapped his fingers and said the answer.
Chaoxu gave Ximenqing a thumbs up approvingly, but what he said was so angry that Ximenqing almost vomited blood: "Not bad, yes, although I guessed it slower than me, but I finally guessed it~"
"It's your turn!" Ximenqing said angrily. If you can't guess, I'll have to bury you!
The second light. 'Chinese New Year's Eve. (Archival Statement)
Chaoxu circled around the lantern before shaking his head and groaning: "Zi said: 'I don't eat all day long, I don't sleep all night, thinking about it, it's useless, it's better to learn.'" The answer is: stay up all night!"
