Inkstone

Of course, in addition to increasing your reputation, Tianji Tower will give out generous rewards every time you pass a level. Although in the eyes of Chen Mo and others, they are just one or two top-quality spiritual stones, to the common people, they are a treasure.

Everyone was gearing up and looking at the rooftop of the airport with eager anticipation.

As time goes by.

"Bang bang bang!"

At this moment, countless fireworks took off, bursting into bright fireworks in the night sky.

At the same time, an old man wearing the official costume of Tianji Tower and a black mask floated in front of Tianji Tower and said loudly: "Welcome everyone to gather in Tianji Tower again to participate in this year's lantern riddle contest. The rules are as follows

As usual, there are five levels, blah blah..."

Below, Fang Risu opened the folding fan and covered it in front of his face. The picture of a lady on the folding fan happened to smile charmingly at Chen Mo. He folded the folding fan again and said: "Brother Mo, if you don't let me compete, let's see who can reach this point."

Rooftop?"

Chen Mo:......

He's good at fighting.

He's really not good at solving word puzzles or anything like that.

So Chen Mo declined politely.

Lin Yi, who was next to Fang Risu, seemed to have noticed something. He smiled slightly and said, "How about we team up in pairs, us as husband and wife, and you as husband and wife... two."

"Okay, okay." Yu Xiaoxiao hugged Chen Mo's arm and took on the role of his wife.

Nangong Jinse glared at her, as if to say, can you please have some face?

On this point, Nangong Jinse is determined to fight hard.

Chen Mo had a headache. Just when he was in trouble, Fang Risu smiled and said, "Actually, you three can do it too."

Hearing this, Yu Xiaoxiao was unhappy: "You look down on me?"

"Okay." Chen Mo said.

"Brother Mo..." Yu Xiaoxiao looked at him doubtfully.

"It's just a game, don't take it so seriously." Chen Mo said with a smile.

"Oh well."

At this time, the old man above also finished speaking and said: "Without further ado, the lantern riddle contest in Tianji Tower begins now."

The old man waved his hand.

A large scroll was thrown out from the sleeve robe.

The scroll slowly unfolded under the gaze of everyone, and the golden characters in the scroll came into view after a while.

"As you can see, this is the first level of the lantern riddle. If you know the answer, write your answer into the lantern in your hand, and then place it on it. After a quarter of an hour, the answer will be revealed, and the one with the correct answer will advance to the next level."

The old man flicked his sleeves, and a suspended spiritual power tray appeared in front of everyone, used to hold lanterns.

"Now, please give it a try!"

As soon as he finished speaking, an uproar suddenly broke out in the sea of ​​people below.

Lin made a sweet sound and read the golden characters on the scroll:

"The body is straight and straight, and the body is hard."

"Although I can't speak, I will respond to my words."

"Hit an item, two words."

The whole place was filled with discussions, and people were whispering to each other or mumbling to themselves about guessing and solving puzzles.

Chen Mo also thought about it carefully and murmured: "It is indeed much more difficult than those lantern riddles at the stall."

"Brother Mo has the answer in his heart." Fang Risu took off the mask and did not put it on again. At this moment, with a smile on his face, he came forward with a folding fan, looking like a handsome young man.

Chen Mo doesn't know how to pretend to understand.

Shaked his head.

Then he smiled and said: "Brother Fang already knows."

Fang Risu also shook his head, but looked at Lin Yi: "Yiyi already knows the answer to the riddle."

"Oh?" Chen Mo looked at Lin Yi and found that a clear understanding flashed in her eyes, and those autumn eyes seemed to be able to speak.

Chen Mo quickly looked away.

what happened?

How come the thoughts of being a thief become more intense in my heart?

System, you are really going to give me problems!

I'm really not that kind of person!

"Wow, Lin Yi is so awesome." Yu Xiaoxiao said in a wow tone, sincerely admiring Lin Yi, but her mind was a mess anyway.

"I know it too." After a moment, Nangong Jinse also said.

Then he glanced at Lin Yi, and both of them smiled lightly.

"Bingshan, what's the answer to the mystery?" Yu Xiaoxiao asked curiously.

Nangong Jinse rolled his eyes at her, ignored her, and said to Chen Mo, "Husband, this is an inkstone."

Chen Mo's eyes flashed, slightly curious: "What's the explanation?"

"The word "Duanfang" refers to "the body is straight and straight, which corresponds to the square shape of the inkstone, and its body is also hard. Secondly, although it cannot be spoken, there are words that should not be answered. The first sentence refers to the inkstone, and the second sentence refers to the inkstone."

A word refers to a person speaking.

"Bing Ying" means "sure answer", which is homophonic with "bi", that is, there is a pen to answer, and the function of the inkstone is to grind the pen for dipping."

Chen Mo's eyes lit up, and with this answer, his heart suddenly became enlightened.

There is something that has a square appearance and a very hard texture. Although it cannot speak, it will definitely answer your questions.

Isn't it just an inkstone?

"Jinse is a great talent." Chen Mo praised him through audio transmission.

"But it's still not as good as Lin Yi. She seems to know the answer just by looking at it." Nangong Jinse said in a message.

"Maybe what she guessed is not true." Chen Mo said with a smile.

"What is it?" Looking at the stunned expressions of the two people, Yu Xiaoxiao asked Chen Mo again.

"You'll find out later," Chen Mo said.

As Lin Yi and Nangong Jinse wrote the answers to the riddles they knew on the lanterns, they also attracted the attention of some people, including those who had conflicts with Chen Mo and the others by the lake.

"It's the woman who said our teacher's daughter is a rouge fan."

"They seem to have solved it."

"It hasn't been revealed yet, maybe they are wrong."

"..."

Feeling several unkind glances coming towards him, Chen Mo also glanced over. When he found out that the owners of these glances were the followers of courtesans, he couldn't help but smile.

These licking dogs really hold a grudge!

Soon, quarter of an hour has arrived.

The old man said loudly: "The answer to this question is - inkstone."

"Let me see how many of you answered correctly."

A majestic soul power surged out from the old man's eyebrows, and then enveloped the lower part, and the soul power invaded the lantern.

"Congratulations, Lin Yi, Qingse, Bai Shishi, Chen Sheng... you answered correctly."

There are tens of thousands of people out there, but only thirty or so people answered it correctly.

The courtesans in brothels also answered correctly.

…

"Master Sheng, you are so powerful. I didn't expect it to be an inkstone." The oiran named Bai Shishi smiled charmingly at a man wearing a butterfly mask next to him, and immediately said: "The next few levels will all depend on Sheng.

Young master."

"Look, in the entire Demonic City, no one can compare to me, Chen Sheng, in terms of guessing puzzles." The man named Chen Sheng promised, patting his chest, but his eyes were directed at Lin Yi and Nangong Jinse.

It can be seen in their expressions.

These two people should be Lin Yi and Qingse.
