Escape From the Library

【Poetry Maze-03】

Yue Xingwen looked at everyone and asked, "Do you want to go to Du Fu's side or Meng Haoran's side first?"

Ke Shaobin suggested: "Du Fu, right? After all, Du Fu's poems were memorized a lot in middle school. Even if we forget them, I believe Xingwen will definitely remember them!"

In middle school, students were required to memorize many poems, and dictation of poems was also a compulsory subject in the exam.But after arriving at university, due to the further subdivision of majors, the difficulty and pressure of professional courses continue to increase. Many students no longer touch literature, and gradually forget the poems and ancient prose they have recited.

Not to mention the poems that have never appeared in textbooks, they are the must-recited chapters in high school Chinese textbooks. After a few years in college, there are very few people who can completely write them silently.

The so-called "skills have specialization", the Department of Chinese is specialized in cultivating talents for the study of Chinese.When encountering a literature class this time, of course everyone believed in Yue Xingwen's ability.Just like when encountering a math maze, everyone will follow Jiang Pingce without hesitation.

Yue Xingwen also tended to take Du Fu's path. He looked at Jiang Pingce and said, "Then let's take the right road first and explore the area on the right road. If we don't find the exit, we will return here. You can write down the route on the map." Well, I'm afraid there will be confusion if there are too many forks."

Jiang Pingce nodded: "Okay, I will draw a map while walking."

Everyone followed Yue Xingwen into the door in the middle of the wall and walked to the right.

This is no longer a body of water, but a wide road.Li Bai's boat disappeared, and a horse appeared. He got on the horse and rode away with a whip.Seeing this scene, Ke Shaobin immediately put away the small picture, and everyone lined up to follow behind Li Bai.In order to catch up with Li Bai on horseback, Yue Xingwen decisively activated the team acceleration skill of "Fast and Lightning".

After about 5 minutes, Li Bai's horse stopped in front of a gazebo.

A figure appeared under the gazebo. He was wearing a dark blue cloth and a black hat on his head. There was no decoration on his whole body, and he looked very plain.

A floating box pops up in front of you——

New character unlocked: Du Fu.

A famous poet in the Tang Dynasty.The word is Zimei, and the name is Shaoling Yelao.

Please follow Du Fu's footsteps and continue to explore the maze.

Exploration degree 10%.

Yue Xingwen remembers that when he first met Li Bai, the exploration speed of the maze was 5%, but now when he meets Du Fu, the exploration speed has become 10%.He looked back at Jiang Pingce, and said in a low voice, "Is it to unlock a poet and increase the exploration speed by 5%?"

Jiang Pingce nodded in agreement: "Well, there are probably 20 poets in this maze, scattered everywhere. After unlocking all the poets and answering all the questions correctly, the exploration speed is 100% to find the exit."

If this is the case, the requirements for the reserve of poetry are very high.With so many poets' works, if you encounter something you don't know, you can't answer the questions correctly, and you won't be able to explore the entire maze.

Liu Zhaoqing complained: "This level only has 1 credits at first glance, and the difficulty is not low! Like the song "Xia Ke Xing" just now, if Xingwen didn't write the full text verbatim, we would not be able to open the level."

Yue Xingwen smiled and comforted everyone: "The people who appear here should be well-known poets. I believe the library will not go too far. After all, if the exam questions are too difficult for a 4-credit course, wouldn't it make all the teams fail here? "

Ke Shaobin nodded and said, "That's right! There should be hints for more difficult questions. It's impossible to leave all the poems empty for us to recite completely, right?"

As soon as the words fell, Li Bai and Du Fu began to say hello to each other.

The meeting of the two poets was a rare occasion in the millennium, and everyone immediately fell silent.I saw Du Fu invited Li Bai to sit down in the gazebo and brought out a jug of wine. The two smiled at each other and drank freely.

The 12 students looked at each other in blank dismay.

Everyone stood by and watched the "Poetry Immortal" and "Poet Sage" drinking as if no one else was around. They didn't know what they were talking about, and they had a good chat, but the scene in front of them was like a "silent movie", and the voices of Li Bai and Du Fu's conversation were not the same. did not reach their ears.

There are only a thousand cups of wine when you meet a bosom friend, and the two drank very happily.

After drinking a pot of strong wine, Du Fu picked up a pen and wrote two lines of words on the wall in front of the gazebo: "Qiu Lai looks after Shang Piaopeng, but Ge Hong is ashamed of the cinnabar."

There are two blank answer boxes below.

Everyone turned their heads to look at Yue Xingwen, and asked him if he knew.

Yue Xingwen took a step forward, picked up the brush, and quickly wrote the second half of the poem in the blank space: "Drinking and singing, spending the day in vain, who is the hero?"

The answer is correct, and the complete poem on the wall flashes a soft light effect.

After Du Fu finished writing the poem, Li Bai actually picked up the brush, swiped the brush on the nearby stone wall, and wrote two lines: "Drunk farewell for a few days, and climbed all over the pool. When will Shimen There is a golden bottle to open the road."

The next two lines were empty as usual, Yue Xingwen took a step forward, picked up a pen and completed the whole poem: "The autumn waves fall in Surabaya, and the sea is bright.

Ke Shaobin adjusted his glasses, looked at the poems on the wall, and said, "I have never heard of these two poems! Oh, why do I feel like an illiterate when I come to the Humanities College?"

Yue Xingwen smiled and said: "These are not the contents of your professional study, it's normal for you not to know. Now you write a row of computer codes in front of me, and I will feel illiterate."

Hearing what he said, Ke Shaobin felt much better, and hurriedly asked for advice: "These two poems should be given to each other by Du Fu and Li Bai, right?"

Yue Xingwen nodded and explained: "Li Bai and Du Fu have only met each other three times in history, the first time was in the third year of Tianbao in the Tang Dynasty, Li Bai was forced to leave Chang'an, met Du Fu in Luoyang, and became close friends. The two met in Liang Song, which is now Henan. In the autumn of the same year, they met in Liang Song. In the spring of the second year, they met again in Shandong and traveled to Qilu together. They gave each other these two poems at an hour apart .”

Although Yue Xingwen's narration was calm, his mood was extremely excited.

In history, the meetings of many celebrities have left eternal stories. Li Bai and Du Fu are also the most famous among them. They only met three times in their lives, but it was these three meetings that made them lifelong confidants.

The two people, who are 11 years apart in age, drank together, recited poems together, talked about the past and the present, and had a great time!

In that turbulent era, it was not easy to meet a confidant.In the following years, they never met each other again, but they never forgot each other, and left countless masterpieces to future generations.

Yue Xingwen's favorite poets in middle school were Li Bai and Du Fu. When he was a freshman, he wrote a thesis on the research of Li Bai and Du Fu's poems, and he was very familiar with their poems.But he never thought that one day, he would be able to see the meeting between Li Bai and Du Fu in the library.

This sense of space-time confusion made him feel extremely complicated.

Li Bai and Du Fu in front of them are not real people, they are just two virtual images created by the library, and they can't hear their words at all.But Yue Xingwen would like to say that your works have become treasures of Chinese culture and will be passed down forever and remembered by future generations.

……

Li Bai and Du Fu finished their meeting. After parting ways, Li Bai's figure disappeared in front of his eyes, while Du Fu continued to ride forward. Everyone looked at each other and immediately followed him.

I thought that Du Fu would take everyone to meet the next poet, but after walking for a long time, everyone saw sad scenes——

In the era of war and chaos, there are traces of war everywhere.

The charred flags lay beside the ruins, the bones discarded randomly on the roadside were devoured beyond recognition by wild beasts, the orphans and widows who couldn't eat enough to eat cried and knelt for some dry food, and the old man turned gray all night after his son died...

The scene of mourning and devastation swayed on both sides of the road like a movie.

As the most famous realist poet in the Tang Dynasty, Du Fu has always been most concerned about people's livelihood. In the turbulent era after the Anshi Rebellion, he created countless poignant poems. In his poems, he felt the suffering of the common people at that time.

Yue Xing Text thought that Du Fu's famous poems would be tested this time, such as "I will be at the top of the mountain, and I will see all the small mountains", "The wine and meat of the Zhumen stink, and the road has frozen bones" and other popular poems.

Unexpectedly, dense texts suddenly appeared in the floating frames on both sides, which looked like long poems at first glance.There are still many vacancies, which obviously need to be filled by themselves.

And the names of the poems on the top are impressively written "Farewell to the Newlyweds 1", "Farewell to the Homeless 1" and "Farewell to the Elderly"!

These are not poems that need to be mastered in the middle school Chinese syllabus, and only students who love poetry in the Chinese Department will look for Du Fu's masterpieces to study.

Sure enough, as soon as the title of the poem came out, Jiang Pingce said: "I remember that when you were a freshman, you wrote an analysis paper on Du Fu's representative works Sanli and Sanbie 1."

Jiang Pingce was not interested in poetry, but Xingwen often went to self-study with him. He sat next to Yue Xingwen, looked up a lot of information on Yue Xingwen, and clearly remembered every paper written by Yue Xingwen .

So, after seeing the three poems in the floating frame, Jiang Pingce knew—this time he was stable again.

Sure enough, Yue Xingwen smiled and said: "That's right. Sanli and Sanbie 1 are Du Fu's representative works describing the suffering of the people caused by the war. Although each capital is very long, I remember everything verbatim!"

Du Fu's three officials and three other 1, let him write silently with his eyes closed, and he can write them all.

What's more, there is a line of reminders every other sentence on the answer wall at this time, which is really too simple for Yue Xingwen.

He took a step forward, picked up the brush, and quickly filled in the characters in the blank.

"Tie hair as a king's wife, and the table does not warm the king's bed. Farewell to each other in the evening marriage and morning, no one is too hasty..."

"The survivors have no news, and the dead are dust and mud. Because of defeat, the bastard came back to find the old path..."

"The surrounding suburbs are not peaceful, and the elderly are not at peace. The children and grandchildren are all killed in battle, how can I spend my life alone..."

The bride whose husband was forced to go to war the next day after the wedding; the homeless young man who returned to his hometown; the widowed old man whose sons were all killed in battle——Newlywed 1, Homeless 1, Elderly 1, three poems and words Blood and tears described the tragic conditions of the people in that era.

Seeing Yue Xingwen quickly filled in all the vacancies, the other students were in mixed feelings.

Each poem in Sanbie 1 has 16 lines, 32 short sentences, and 160 characters, which add up to 480 characters.It is difficult to memorize all such long poems. Xingwen's memory is really outstanding, word for word.

However, as a top student in the Chinese Department, it seems reasonable to know Du Fu's masterpiece?

Anyway, as senior brother Liu said, it's right to follow Xingwen and win this time!
