When you get closer, you can see that in addition to the lanterns hanging on each boat, there is also a wooden sign hanging on the bow of the boat, which reads "Bamboo West Society", "Duckweed Society" and so on. Ye Xingyuan knew that these were the names of the Jingzhong Mystery Society, and it seemed that each painting boat was hired by a different Mystery Society.

Two middle-aged scribes stood by the river, saw Ye Xingyuan and Zhu Ning'er coming, and greeted them with a smile and said, "This son wants to go to the painting boat to solve the riddle?

Ye Xingyuan was stunned, raised his eyes, and sure enough, he saw that most of the painting boats were empty, and most of the red paper with lantern riddles on the hanging lanterns had also been picked off, which meant that the riddles had been broken.

Only the most magnificent painting boat in the middle is full of lights, and it is the big ship of the Tiger Shooting Society. The Shooting Tiger Club seems to be the largest mystery club in Beijing, and I didn't expect to have the strength to sweep the rest of the clubs, listening to the tone of these two, it seems that this is not the first time.

Riddles are hard power, you can't cheat, the riddles you painstakingly came up with, it didn't take long for someone to guess the riddles, but you can't guess other people's riddles, then you can only admit defeat.

This overwhelming gap also means that the riddle level of the people of the Tiger Shooting Society is more than one level higher than that of the other societies. Ye Xingyuan's curiosity was also aroused, and Zhu Ning'er asked at this time: "I don't know what the riddle in the Tiger Shooting Club is?"

The two middle-aged men laughed, "The little girl is confident, and the lantern riddles in the Tiger Boat are all ten taels over the years." Among them, there is a mystery of the emperor, if someone cracks it, in addition to giving a thousand gold, this year there is also a song and dance for the guests to perform a song and dance, which is a stunning color that ordinary people can't dream of!"

Ye Xingyuan sighed, the Tiger Shooting Club is also very large, and the painting boat is at least densely lit. There must be at least a hundred lantern riddles, and most of these lantern riddles will be guessed overnight, which means that the glorious gold has to be given away for a thousand taels of silver in white flowers.

As for the so-called "Emperor of Mysteries", Ye Xingyuan didn't care. This is generally a gimmick, and it is the key to the Tiger Shooting Club to prove that it will never be defeated, and the daughter and the beauty should be blessed.

He said to Zhu Ning'er: "Then let's go up and have a look." A small amount of money earned dozens of taels of silver is spend. The emperor of the mystery is still left to fate, and we can't smash other people's signboards, right?"

Ye Xingyuan felt that he was humble enough, but the two middle-aged people glanced at each other, but they were a little disdainful in their hearts. Do you think you are a great talent from where you came from? It is really a young man who does not know the height of the sky, and the lantern riddles carefully prepared by the Tiger Shooting Society for this Lantern Festival are not easy to break? The cost of the riddles they invited to make riddles far exceeds the lottery money, and if they were not the talents of the world, they might not be able to guess one or two riddles after hard thinking.

Last year, a Xu Hanlin came in micro-service, thought hard all night, and did not solve a mystery. was so angry that he went crazy on the spot, and it was a joke for a while.

Ye Xingyuan didn't know the name of the Tiger Shooting Society, but he could see their disdain from the faces of these two people, and he didn't care. Under the guidance of the two of them, they stepped onto the deck and circled the cabin to check the riddles on the lanterns.

Almost every lamp was covered with a few people contemplating, and most of them were dressed as readers. Or for the show or for the lift. The readers of the Xuanyuan world sense the heavens, and what they learn must not be false. They haven't gotten it for a long time, and it seems that the difficulty of the lantern riddles produced by the Tiger Shooting Club is really above the level.

There was a scholar behind Ye Xingyuan, and he suddenly saw a person, and said in surprise: "Third Brother Shen, you are also here?"

The person who was called Shen Sange smiled faintly, but his eyes did not leave the riddle on the lantern. He only nodded perfunctorily and said: "Why are you only here now? You are too late, you see that in this riddle, it says, 'Kong Ming said: If you let it go, what will happen?' Yun Chang said: I wish to follow the military law!', which seems to be a reference to the story of the Three Kingdoms.

Only Kong Ming and Yun Chang had such a conversation? Although Kong Ming was virtuous, he had never suddenly been in a high position. The bit has been under the cloud chief. After Yun Chang lost Jingzhou, he could get the position of prime minister. Could this be the text of the Romance Script? Such a common saying, it is a bit strange to play a sentence in history."

He was chattering, blindly only talking about riddles, obviously immersed in it, and the people who came were dumbfounded, muttering: "Pei Songzhi's Note on the Three Kingdoms, there is a list of Kong Ming leaflets, is it related?"

Ye Xingyuan couldn't help but laugh, pulled Zhu Ning'er and walked forward, and saw that the two were arguing, and one said: "Although your idea is strange, you have lost the right way to guess the riddle." Although this word is correct with the word 'gram', it ends with 'guilty', which is superficial. ”

Another person glared and said: "Since he is a rebel, how can he be considered innocent? ”

The two argued endlessly, and each refused to give in. Ye Xingyuan saw that the riddle was "Flying Horse Reported to Kill Xue Can", typed four books and sentences, smiled slightly, and was noncommittal. Xue Can is a famous thief a few decades ago, the emperor's subordinate Confucian Meng Bang led the troops out of the battle, and beheaded him in three days, flying and riding to report the victory, which is an allusion that everyone knows.

Although Zhu Ning'er is smart, she doesn't know anything about the study of saints, and she only feels depressed when she guesses these elegant sentences. Don't need Ye Xingyuan to greet him, move forward on his own.

She also saw the two of them gesturing with their hands, standing or standing, and the names of the people in their mouths were repeated, but they shook their heads again and again. This riddle is to guess the ancients, it seems to be much simpler, Zhu Ninger cheered up, the heart may be able to guess this question, when looking up, only to see the seven characters "the light boat has passed the ten thousand mountains", guess an ancient, pear flower grid.

Zhu Ning'er smiled, turned around and whispered to Ye Xingyuan: "Lord, I didn't expect that your poem had also spread to the capital, and some people still used it as a puzzle." ”

In addition to Tang Shiyan, Zhu Ning'er is probably the person who collects Ye Xingyuan's poems the most, but whenever Ye Xingyuan is bored and makes any poems, she will try her best to get records, since she and Ye Xingyuan have known each other for more than half a year, she has also sorted out a lot, this sentence "The light boat has crossed the Ten Thousand Mountains" is Ye Xingyuan's work in this world.

Ye Xingyuan nodded and said: "This mystery is a little simpler, except for the smile of the pear blossom Gebo people, the intentions are not as delicate as the previous two riddles, you might as well guess." ”

Zhu Ning'er shook her head like a rattle, and said with a wry smile: "I don't even understand what a pear lattice is, where can I guess it, let's take a look at it later." ”

Her voice was a little louder, and the two people next to her cast disdainful glances together, and one of them sneered: "I don't even understand the pear blossom grid, and I still want to guess what lantern riddles? ”

Zhu Ning'er was furious, stomped her feet and turned around to leave, but Ye Xingyuan Shi Shiran stepped forward, took the bamboo pole, and took off the lantern with a stretch.

The two of them were shocked and said angrily: "You can't guess the riddle, don't make trouble, this lantern means that you have solved the riddle, if you answer wrong, but you have to lose the lottery, children don't make mistakes!"

They saw that Ye Xingyuan was not very old, and Zhu Ning'er was even younger, so he just thought that he was a rich kid to see the excitement. They had been guessing this riddle for a long time, but they had never had an answer, how could they believe that Ye Xingyuan could guess it at a glance? What's more, this person's companion didn't even understand Pear Blossom, obviously not a professional, how could he dare to be so big?

Ye Xingyuan smiled proudly, "We just guessed it, if you don't believe it, and go to the proprietor of the Tiger Shooting Club to wait, I will report the mystery, so that you can breathe a sigh of relief." ”

Where are the two of them willing to believe it, and they still have to pull, Ye Xingyuan gently shook his hand and pushed them away, and when he entered the cabin, he also took off the two lanterns that he had just glanced at a few times, and carried them into the cabin together. Now the people who gathered and discussed just now are gone, and they are staring at them all in a hurry, hoping that they will make a fool of themselves.

Zhu Ning'er was shocked, chased after Ye Xingyuan and said in a low voice: "Lord, you don't have to be angry for me, if you guess wrong, wouldn't it be a shame?"

Ye Xingyuan laughed, "Am I not guessing correctly?"

He walked into the cabin with three lanterns, and the people of the Tiger Shooting Club were waiting at the door, and when he saw him carrying three lanterns at a young age, he couldn't help but be stunned, and came forward and said: "Friend, are you here to solve the riddle? Can you be sure? If the lantern is not broken correctly, you will have to lose the prize, don't say it is unpredictable!"

Ye Xingyuan nodded and said, "Naturally, you are sure, you can remember them one by one." ”

He first mentioned the lantern riddle of "the light boat has passed the Ten Thousand Mountains" just now, and said with a smile: "This pear blossom grid is funny, in fact, it is the easiest to guess, I guess it is 'Fan Xu', I don't know if it is or not?"

As soon as this name came out, the two people who were arguing just now suddenly beat their chests and said hatefully: "Why didn't I think of it? It's my short-sightedness that blames this little brother!"

There is no need to wait for the members of the Tiger Shooting Club to check the answer, everyone present immediately understood that this is absolutely right, the member of the club wiped the sweat on his forehead with embarrassment, looked at the red paper in his hand, nodded and said: "This question is guessed correctly, and take the flower charge, when you leave, you can exchange it for lottery money outside the painting boat." ”

Ye Xingyuan grinned and didn't reach out to pick up the flower, lifted the second lantern, and said with a smile: "Feiqi reported that Xue Can was killed, I guess it was 'Sue Yu Jun'." ’”

"Tell Yu Jun" came out of "Mencius", Le Zhengzi saw Mencius, and said: "Tell Yu Jun, Jun is here to see you." In addition to deducting the word "gram", this also deducted the word "newspaper". Everyone was also convinced, and Ye Xingyuan went to the next city.

"As for this question" Ye Xingyuan smiled freely, mentioned the third lantern and said: "This riddle is slangy, but the answer to the riddle is very interesting, and the solution is 'take people by words, and lose them'." ”

At first, everyone was stunned, not understanding what the mystery was related to the mystery, and then someone sprayed rice. Someone smiled bitterly and said: "I think hard about what Kong Mingyun is long, but I don't know that it has nothing to do with it." This mystery is really wonderful, even more interesting than that Fan Xu, and it is also thanks to the little brother that he has such a narrow mind!"

Ye Xingyuan solved three riddles in a row and earned thirty taels of lottery money in a row, and the members of the Tiger Shooting Club knew that they had met a master of guessing riddles, so they didn't dare to slack off, and hurriedly stepped forward to greet them. (To be continued.) )
