The boy's explanation was very clear. The system here is one person, one vote. If Li Yi wants to take Xiao Huan in with him, he must guess another lantern riddle.
Money matters are important, so we can't break other people's rules.
Li Yi walked back to the lanterns. There seemed to be an invisible aura around him, and everyone around him moved out of the way.
"Oolong climbs up the wall, covered with thousands of gold stars."
Apart from this sentence, there is still no explanation. Everyone guessed for a long time, but no one could guess the answer.
At this time, almost everyone's eyes were turned to Li Yi.
Of course, more people have the mentality of watching a joke.
Maybe he got it wrong by chance the first time. Will he still be as lucky as he was the second time?
After a while, Li Yi spoke again: "The answer to this lantern riddle is 'steel scale'."
With a complete collection of ancient and modern lantern riddles in hand, what lantern riddles can he not guess?
"Congratulations, sir! Now you can take this girl in." The boy's next actions proved that Li Yi gave the correct answer to the riddle.
After Li Yi spoke, confusion appeared on several people's faces, which soon turned into confusion.
"I see!"
"Comparing the scale beam to an oolong, then the "scale star" is ten thousand points of gold!"
"I'm ashamed, I'm ashamed. I thought I'd read so many poems and books, but I couldn't even understand two little lantern riddles. It's so embarrassing for me!"

In fact, things like guessing lantern riddles, to a certain extent, really have nothing to do with whether one’s literary talent is good or not, and whether one is knowledgeable or not.
It only relies on a flash of quick wit, or a heaven-defying cheating device like Li Yi.
This kind of guy who doesn't even define the scope of lantern riddles and just puts out one sentence for people to guess is not a good person. I'm afraid his intention is to deliberately make things difficult for others.
At this time, the eyes of the people around him had changed somewhat when they looked at Li Yi.
Guessing one may be a fool, but since the second one can be guessed so easily, the possibility of a fool is unlikely.
It can only mean that the handsome scholar in front of them may have some real ability...
Soon, Li Yi used practical actions to prove to them how correct these people's ideas were just now.
He had originally planned to take Xiaohuan in, but when he glanced at the two scholars who introduced him enthusiastically just now, he suddenly felt that it was a bit impolite to leave like this, so he walked over and said to the two of them with a smile: "
Brothers, why don't you go in together?"
The expressions on the faces of the two people were stunned. Before they could recover, Li Yi had already walked to the two remaining lanterns, raised his head, glanced at it, and said: "At the feet of the bright moon half Evian, the remaining flowers fell on the horse's hooves.
Before... the answer to this lantern riddle... should be the word "bear"..."
As soon as he said this, everyone looked at him as if he were looking at a monster. How could they tell that this was the word "bear"?
This has absolutely no connection at all!
Li Yi did not stop because of the crowd's uproar. His eyes were already looking at the last lantern. Not long after, he spoke again: "Two rows of trees stand on the side of the mountain in the distance, and a flat boat leaves the water flowing... This is also an anagram,
The answer is the word "wisdom"."
No one around him spoke anymore, and there was a strange look in his eyes.
It was undeniable that he had guessed all the first two lantern riddles, but the last two... what were they guessing!
The bright moon is half under the feet of Evian, and the broken flowers fall in front of the horse's hooves------Does this poem have anything to do with the word "bear"?
Two rows of trees stood on the side of the mountain in the distance, and the water flowed across the boat - how did he figure out that this was the word "wisdom"!
However, when everyone turned their eyes and saw the boy standing there blankly, with an expression on his face as if he had seen a ghost, their expressions gradually changed.
No way --- he really guessed it right, right?
"Guys...please!"
I don't know how long it took for the boy to come back to his senses. He swallowed involuntarily and made a respectful gesture of invitation to Li Yi and the others.
He knows better than anyone else that these lantern riddles are just gimmicks made by those people to attract others. Without any hints, no one will guess them.
But the fact is...
These extremely difficult lantern riddles were all solved by the scholar in front of me.
It was enough to solve just one riddle, but he wanted to solve all the lantern riddles. This was obviously a waste of time!
However, with so many people staring at him, he naturally couldn't say anything remorseful. Even though he was extremely shocked, he still respectfully invited Li Yi and others in.
At this time, those people in the field who had worked hard to guess the riddle for a long time could no longer describe what they felt in their hearts.
He actually guessed everything right!
Each lantern riddle only took a few breaths to think about?
In comparison, what have these people done in such a long period of time?
Moreover, as an ordinary person, one guess is enough, and you can be forgiven for guessing two, but why did you guess so many, occupying all the places, and leaving no way for others to survive!
Seeing the four scholars entering the restaurant, everyone looked at the lanterns that had been taken off by the boy, which also meant that they would never have the chance to enter again, and they felt like crying without tears...
At this time, Li Yi Xiaohuan and the two scholars who had not yet recovered had entered the restaurant.
"Thank you, brother!"
After the two of them came back to their senses, they immediately thanked Li Yi with clasped fists.
Today, in this restaurant, in addition to the few poetry clubs that participated in the competition, other people with the same ideas have naturally been invited. After all, there has been no first place in literature since ancient times. If there were only people from those poetry clubs, I am afraid that no one would be convinced.
There will be no debate about who is better until tomorrow. These invited people will evaluate the poems and essays written today to determine the winner.
And if it weren't for Li Yi, the two of them wouldn't have the qualifications to enter here at all.
These scholars were always thanking each other. They were not interested at all. After Li Yi waved his hand, he began to take stock of the situation in front of him.
The space inside this restaurant was much larger than he imagined. There were about dozens of people in the lobby on the first floor alone. As for the upstairs, there were also crowds of people. It seemed very spacious to accommodate so many people.
On the table next to it, there are some snacks such as fruits, vegetables and pastries, which look quite exquisite and can be used as dessert after the meal.
Just when Li Yi was about to taste a piece of fruits and vegetables first, a few steps away, a beautiful woman spread out the handkerchief in her hand and distributed the exquisite pastries to several women beside her. Li Yi sniffed.
, his expression suddenly changed, and he looked over following the scent.
"The service here is quite attentive. A maid is so beautiful... Hey, the pastry she is holding looks delicious..." Li Yi sighed in surprise, and then
He walked over quickly.
There were only a few pieces of pastry, but after being divided by the women, there were only two pieces left. Li Yi was afraid that the last two pieces would be taken away by others if he was too late, so he quickened his steps again and walked there.
In front of the pretty maid, he imitated those other women and extended his hand.
Seeing the slender white palm that suddenly appeared in front of her eyes, the expression on the pretty maid's pretty face was slightly startled. She looked up at Li Yi with a confused look on her face.
At the same time, several women around her also had stunned looks on their faces.
…
…
"That brother actually recognizes Miss Wan?"
Not far away, the two scholars brought in by Li Yi looked at each other and murmured.
