The nine-story lighthouse, the first five floors are riddles, the next three floors are couples, it is said that one of them is a couple from the magistrate. As for the last floor, Manager Song bought a secret and did not say anything. However, He Ze thought, it was probably a kind of poetry, songs and essays. In order to be worthy of this lantern, it would take a lot of effort to set up the title like this.

You know, this is just a small town, and it is rare to read.

"Brother, are you sure?"

"No." He Ze shook his head honestly. Even if he recognized all the words he had learned in his original body, he was only half illiterate now. The only thing he could rely on was probably the distant memory, and most of them were still unclear.

Fortunately, the first three riddles are not difficult. They are considered basic questions? They all appeared in lantern festivals in previous years. More than 30 people only brushed them down. He Ze looked through his original memories and answered them easily.

The guy held up a long pole and hit the big red lantern on the fourth floor. A piece of folded white paper fell down. Looking at the crowd in the audience, the people in the audience opened the white paper and opened the white paper. Manager Song smiled, "This fourth riddle, please listen to it, 'When drawing it, it is round, and when it is square, it is warm, and it is not cold.' Type a word. Similarly, when the half of the incense stick in my hand is burned, the time will come."

Manager Song raised the incense that had been lit in his hand, saying it was half a pillar, but in fact it was only about one-third of the incense stick. Under the fog of fragrance, many participants showed embarrassed expressions.

"Do you know?" He Ze turned around and asked the two of them. He An and Lin Yu shook their heads one after another.

"A coincidence, I don't know either. We will be eliminated if we don't answer a question. What should we do?"

What to do? Cool.

"'When drawing, when writing, when writing, when it is warm, but not cool'..." He Ze silently recited the puzzle, and focused for a while, then picked up the brush on the table and drew a circle on the paper, and then drew a square. The tip of the pen poked the paper side one after another, leaving one black ink dot after another.

When most of the paper was covered with ink dots, he wrote the word "warm" in "circle" and the word "cool" in "square". The round warmth thing was written in "square" and the writing was square...

"I see."

"What?" He An was excited.

"Sun," He Ze pointed to the sky, "that is, the word 'sun'."

That's right, the "day" in this world is also square. He Ze flipped the white paper and wrote it straight, "Look."

"Brother, I wrote so well." Even if I couldn't understand it, the charm of the words was too great. Lin Yu's eyes were full of admiration and awe.

He Ze frowned. Last time he bought two sets of pens, ink, paper and inkstones, and books like children's enlightenment, so he wanted to find time to teach them to read, but he didn't put it on the agenda. It seemed that he had to plan his way back tonight.

As for whether He An and Lin Yu can still praise him after they learn to read... Cough cough, maybe, maybe, maybe.

Just as he was thinking about this, the fragrance burned out. When he heard Manager Song read out the correct answer, He Anle jumped straight away.

Five people continued in this game, and the atmosphere began to become tense.

"Now I have the last riddle in my hand, it's the difficulty... I don't know. Please pay attention to the title "Look at the mountains from afar, listen to the silent water when you are close, and the flowers are still there when you are in spring, and people are not surprised when you come." This is a simple five-character quatrain, which is also to let everyone guess a word, half a stick of incense, hurry up! Haha!"

Manager Song smiled kindly, but everyone in the contest frowned at the same time. If the puzzle in the fourth game was a difficult problem, the fifth puzzle also added the word "special" on the basis of "new", but this one plus one is far greater than two.

Deng Kui is indeed not so easy to win!

He Ze and the other two knocked on the table, bit their fingers, wandered outside the sky, looked at each other in the end, and couldn't think of a Zi Chou Yin Mao.

"Brother, no, it's just the fifth game!" He An's tone was depressed, as if he had seen the three of them leaving the scene in disgrace.

"Don't worry, isn't it time? The fragrance is only half burning!"

"Yes, you have to have confidence! Maybe you can think of the answer to the riddle after you finish your words?"

"Brother!"

He An looked angry, and He Ze shook his head with a smile.

"Forget it if you can't think of it, but He Ze, how did you pronounce the third sentence of the puzzle just now? " Lin Yu suddenly asked.

"Um?"

"Read it again. Are quatrains poems? I seem to have heard Uncle Xu mention that mountains, water, flowers, birds, and the ones drawn on the horse riding a lantern are quite similar!"

"'Looking at the distance, seeing the mountains with colors, and listening to the sound of water in the near distance, the flowers are still there when spring, and people are not surprised when birds come.' Well, it really looks like, but there is less beauty..."

"Wait a minute, wait!" He An suddenly raised his hand, his voice full of excitement, "Brother, it's either like it! It's just!"

"What is it?"

"Drawing! Either like it or, the answer is to this riddle, it is 'painting', right? Only the dead objects on the painting can the mountains be colored and the water is silent, the flowers are gone in spring, and people are not shocked, right?!"

After a word "draw" passed in my mind, He Ze patted He An on the shoulder, "Look, Brother A was right just now, you are much smarter than Brother A!"

"Are you guessed right?" Lin Yu's brows also stretched out.

"Well, **Never leave ten."

Sure enough, after all time, they successfully passed the fifth game. Sixteen people were defeated in this game, which was simply crazy.

When it was the turn of the couplet session on the next three floors, Manager Song personally invited the two to the stage. They were two famous scholars in the town. One was in his forties and the other was already a sixty-year-old man. He also taught classes to the academy where He Ze was.

When Manager Song read out the first couplet on the sixth floor, "The lights on the sky and the earth are bright", He Ze casually wrote out the second couplet "The beautiful scenery and the good night of people reunion", and it was successfully passed.

He An was overjoyed.

The difficulty of the seventh level has increased again. The title is "Red flowers everywhere" in the Federation of Literary and Art Circles. Perhaps the red flowers and green trees are too smooth. He Ze wrote "Many green trees and green trees", which is neat and unexpectedly successfully entered the next round.

The competition was in full swing. At the end of this question, there were less than ten contestants sitting around the audience, and the tense atmosphere fermented among the crowd.

"The seven rounds passed, and at this time I was holding the final question on the eighth floor. This question was personally given by our parents, Lord Zhou, of Qiongchuan County. He was a Jinshi and had a great talent. You have to do your best this time! Please also listen to the first couplet "Goats go up the mountain, touch the goat's feet, bleat, bleat, bleat, bleat, bleat, bleat, bleat, bleat, bleat, bleat, bleat, bleat, bleat, bleat, bleat, bleat, bleat, bleat, bleat, bleat, bleat, bleat, bleat, bleat, bleat, bleat, bleat, bleat, bleat, bleat, bleat, bleat, bleat, bleat, bleat, bleat, bleat, bleat, bleat, bleat, bleat, bleat, bleat, bleat, bleat, bleat, bleat, bleat, bleat, bleat, bleat, bleat, bleat, bleat, bleat, bleat, bleat, bleat, bleat, bleat, bleat, bleat, bleat, bleat, bleat, bleat, bleat, bleat, bleat, bleat, bleat, bleat, bleat, bleat, bleat, bleat, bleat, bleat, bleat, bleat, bleat, bleat, bleat, bleat, bleat, bleat, bleat, bleat, bleat, bleat, bleat, bleat, bleat, bleat, bleat, bleat, bleat, bleat, bleat, bleat, bleat, bleat, bleat, bleat, bleat, bleat,

After saying that, the audience became quiet and the shopkeeper Song slowly lit incense.

"Sheep..." He An bit his finger, "Brother, can we write about the sheep he wrote, do we write about the pig?"

"How do pigs scream?"

"Hmph, humph..." He An studied hard with his tongue against his throat.

"Well, I'm screaming well." He Ze couldn't help laughing.

"Silly! Brother, are you bullying you again!" Lin Yu poked He An's head with a grudge, then turned to "teach a lesson" He Ze, "How can you really do it, is there anyone who did this brother?"

"Yes, yes, are you wrong... If you say serious, pigs should not do it. The last three words in the first couplet are not only onomatopoe, but the most important thing is that it can also detach the word "sheep". If you want to be safe, we must be fully prepared."

Not only do you need to find an animal whose sound is an onotrope, but this onotrope must also be able to detach the animal itself in the world writing method, and think about these before you can start to match the pair.

"The sheep are the first couplet, but the pigs are not good, the dogs are not good, the chicken..." The way to write "chi" in this world can be used to detach the word "chi", but only the chickens can "chi" and it is "chi" when they are big, which is not very safe for this.

As he reached this point, He Ze became competitive and had already tried his best.

Time passed by bit by bit, and the incense in the incense burner became shorter and shorter.

This is the second to last level. After passing this level, you will be only one step away from Deng Kui, but this is only second. Most contestants have more important points than winning Deng Kui.

They are all scholars, and they only seek fame and official positions for life. Just now, Shopkeeper Song said that this question was personally issued by the county magistrate. If he could express a good sentence and show his face in front of Lord Zhou, he could give him some advice during the county trial, which was not comparable to a light.

Therefore, not only He Ze, but the few contestants left behind the stage racked their brains and thought hard.

Seeing that the fragrance was about to burn out, He Ze still didn't start writing. He An glanced at him, "Brother?"

He Ze was stunned for a long time, then turned around and looked at him.

"Brother Lin, brother..."

"Shh... let's wait for him to think." Lin Yu reached out to his lips and made a move to silence.

"Xiao An, how does a cat scream?" After a while, He Ze suddenly laughed.

"Meow?"

He Ze smiled more and more happily, "You asked me before if I was sure, now Brother tells you that there are already five points. As for the other five points, it depends on whether God will give you face in the last round."

After saying that, he didn't wait for He An to answer and slowly picked up the pen. The moment he put the pen on, the last section of the burning incense pillar in the incense burner suddenly fell down, leaving only a little spark that was about to be extinguished.

Time is up.

This round was unsurprisingly in the Shura Field. The two "judgments" either frowned or smiled slightly. After half an hour, the results of the competition were announced by Manager Song.

Only three people passed.

He Ze, a middle-aged uncle, and Qian Sun sitting opposite him. He Ze was not surprised that Qian Sun could stay. After all, Guan Du, as the most expected student of the master in the academy, naturally had real talents and knowledge.

He Ze is right about the cat: "The cat plays with flowers, the flower is full of the cat's eyes, the meow meow meow", and the middle-aged uncle is right about the chicken he had thought of before. As for Qian Sun, the lower couplet he handed in is the most neat, "The buffalo goes into the water, the water floods the buffalo horns, mooes", the upper and lower couplets are one sheep and one cow, one "up" and one "down", which is absolutely absolute.

Seeing that the three people who were sitting in the audience were about to come out, the crowd was filled with excitement, and even someone outside the field set up a special bet.

"Brother, why don't we go to a gamble too? We will win by buying it ourselves!" He An was excited and almost paid the money in He Ze's wallet.

"I'm pretty brave, don't you be afraid that I'll tell my daddy Emu later?"

"Brother!" He An stomped his feet fiercely.

"Hey, I'll give it to you! But this is only once, I won't be the case!" He Ze threw out a small piece of silver, "Remember, buy No. 9 to win."

"Yeah, yeah, thank you brother!" He An took the silver, ran two steps away happily and suddenly stopped, "Brother, we are not No. 9? Have you remembered the wrong thing?"

"Just buy No. 9, the man opposite us."

"Ah..." He An was obviously unhappy, "Why?"

"In the last game, the average chance of each person winning is one-third. If we win, you can carry that horse and ride a lamp home later. Even if you don't win, wouldn't you still have one-half chance to make money?"

He An was stunned by He Ze, and after a while, he came to his senses, "Then why don't we buy all the other two people? If my brother doesn't win, we will have a 100% chance to make money!"

When he thought about this, his eyes lit up.

"...You are a ghost. You are a ghost. I believe you brother, go quickly!" Sun Ying bought money based on his understanding of the level. As for the other one, he didn't know anything about it.

He An curled his lips and carefully squeezed through the crowd.

At this moment, the last test question finally floated down from the wonderful horse riding lamp on the top of the tower. Manager Song's words verified He Ze's previous guess.

The last test question is poetry, which is composed of a poem with Lantern Festival as the theme.

"Oh no, what should I do if God doesn't give me face if he leaves the question?" He Ze sighed when he heard the question.

The author has something to say: Chapter 78, 79, 80 has been moved to Chapter 77, and these three chapters have been replaced with new content.
Chapter completed!
