Quick Travel: The host must die in every plane

Chapter 67 Mr. Wenrun’s favorite (13)

"Congratulations to this lady for getting the answer right! This sandalwood fan is yours."

The store enthusiastically handed a finely crafted folding fan to Su Ye, but it was clear that she was not the one to solve the lantern riddle.

The man who had just told the answer to the riddle walked out of the crowd in a white shirt. The man had a handsome face and a cold temperament, as if he were an immortal descending from the clouds. Everyone consciously made way for him, lest they blaspheme the immortal.

Song Yu walked up to Su Ye and was still courteous.

The shopkeeper thought he was here to compete with Su Ye for the prize, so he said respectfully: "I'm sorry, young master, but according to our shop's rules, whoever answers the lantern riddles within the specified time, no matter who answers, the final prize will go to the person holding the lantern." Everyone owns it, so this sandalwood fan belongs to this young lady. If you are interested, you can also try other lantern riddles."

Song Yu smiled softly, "I just answered for this young lady, and it was not about this fan. As for this fan, it naturally belongs to Miss Su."

Song Yu said the last sentence to Su Ye.

His eyes were gentle and watery, but Su Ye didn't feel happy.

She always did not receive rewards for her merits, so she stuffed the fan into Song Yu's arms, "Since the lantern riddles were solved by Mr. Song, then this prize should go to Mr. Song. I am not as talented as others, and I dare not pretend to accept it." Credit."

Seeing Su Ye's tough attitude, Song Yu had no choice but to put down the fan.

Su Ye's biggest goal was the night pearl, so he asked Su Yang to get the giant lantern.

The giant lantern was taken down, attracting many people to watch.

Many martial arts practitioners have taken down this lantern in the past, but so far no one has been able to guess the riddle inside it. Now that someone has come to challenge this lantern, people naturally want to join in the fun.

Su Ye took out the lantern riddle hidden in the giant lantern. This lantern riddle was very special because it was not written on a wooden board and hung under the lantern like other ordinary lantern riddles. Instead, it was written on silk and packed in a bag and hidden under the lantern. in.

Su Ye opened the brocade bag, took out the silk cloth, and read out the content of the lantern riddle.

The content of this lantern riddle is also very special, it is a "poetic riddle".

"There are mountains upon mountains, and the mountains hang downward; the bright moon is upon the bright moon, and the bright moon is on both sides; there are arable fields above, and long-flowing rivers below; there are six people in the family, and the two families are not reunited. Guess a word."

After hearing the content of the lantern riddle, everyone began to guess. There were different answers, but all of them were denied by the store.

Crossword guessing is nothing more than using your imagination to deconstruct and reorganize a word, and you can integrate a word into a poem, which requires a high level of cultural literacy on the part of the guesser.

This poem stumped countless people present, including many literati who had read thousands of volumes.

Su Ye didn't have any in-depth research on ancient poetry, but when she combined ancient poetry with guessing puzzles, her eyesight turned black.

On the other hand, Song Yu on the side was calm and composed, and said to Su Ye with a confident confidence: "Miss Su, this poem riddle is very interesting. I wonder if I can answer it?"

Su Ye made a gesture of please. She couldn't answer anyway, so she might as well give the opportunity to others.

Song Yu nodded slightly, and then confidently replied to the store: "I'm guessing that the answer to this poem is a borrowed word 'yong'. Is it accurate?"

The shopkeeper's face changed, and he was stunned for more than ten seconds, and then suddenly laughed and said: "Yes, yes, that's so accurate! You are really a genius. I have hung this lantern here for more than ten years. You are the first one." A person who answered this lantern riddle. Sir, can you tell me how you solved the word 'Yong'?"

"On the surface, this poem is about a family in the mountains. They live in a place where mountains and rivers depend on each other. The bright moon in the water and the mountains reflect each other, and the scenery is extremely beautiful. However, the husband is forced to go out to serve, and the couple cannot get together. The peasant woman was left with four lonely children, and this was an ordinary family in a miserable situation against the backdrop of the war."

"At the same time, the whole poem cleverly implies the word 'Yong' as the answer to the riddle. The first sentence 'Chongshan again mountains' refers to the word 'Chu', and 'Chongshan hangs down' also implies This character needs to be read upside down. When the character 'chu' is turned upside down, it becomes the character 'yong'."

"The second sentence 'Ming Yue Fu Ming Yue' refers to the two words 'moon' connected together, and the word 'Ming Yue on both sides' still refers to the word 'yong'."

"And the third sentence 'There are arable fields above, and there are long-flowing rivers below'. There are fields above and water below. It still refers to the word 'use'."

"As for the last sentence, it's not difficult to understand. 'A family of six, and the six are not reunited' refers to the word 'used', which means 'four' is neat and 'two' is incomplete."

After Song Yu explained the process of solving the puzzle, everyone present applauded.

After hearing this, the store owner also praised him repeatedly: "Young master is really full of knowledge and talent. I really admire him!"

Song Yu was not complacent about this. Instead, he bowed his hands and said modestly: "I am so talented and knowledgeable, so I feel ashamed. The person who wrote the topic introduced riddles into the poem, which not only cared about the current situation, but also contained the interest of solving the problem. This is the real reason. He can be said to be full of knowledge and talent."

"Young Master is too modest." The shopkeeper's eyes were full of admiration for Song Yu, and then he showed a look of embarrassment, "But according to the rules of our shop, I am afraid that the pearl of the night must still belong to this lady."

Song Yu smiled slightly and said, "It doesn't matter. I already know Miss Su, and I'm not here for the Night Pearl this time. I'm solving the puzzle firstly to help the beauty, and secondly to enjoy the fun of solving the problem."

Su Ye was really amazed by Song Yu's talent just now, and he really liked the night pearl, but beautiful women also have a way of getting money, so they came up with a solution.

"The way I see it, my brother held the lantern, and Mr. Song solved the riddles for you. How about we split the luminous pearl in half, and each of us has half?"

When the store owner heard that he wanted to split the luminous pearl into pieces, he felt extremely distressed. He quickly stopped Su Ye from putting this idea into action, "You must not do it, miss. The reason why this luminous pearl is precious is that it has remained intact after many years. If it is broken into pieces, To do otherwise would be a waste of natural resources."

Su Ye shrugged helplessly, "What should I do? This is the fairest way I can think of. Or does Mr. Song have a better way?"

Since Ye Mingzhu refused to give up points, she could only leave the problem to Song Yu.

Song Yu didn't care about the Night Pearl, so he said: "This Night Pearl is useless to me, so Miss Su should keep it."

"No, no reward for no merit, I can't take your things for nothing."

To take something from someone, you have to owe someone a favor. Thinking about it carefully, she has already owed Song Yu two favors. If she continues to owe someone more, she is afraid that she will not be able to pay it back in her lifetime.

Song Yu was a little disappointed when he was rejected in public, but he quickly proposed another plan.

"Since Miss Su insists on making the distinction so clear, why not ask Miss Su to accompany me on a boat trip to enjoy the lake? The lunch will offset half of the night pearl. What do you think, Miss Su?"
