After hearing Liu Chengen's words, Du Ning immediately replied: "Being respectful is not as good as obeying orders, then I will be making a fool of myself."
So, he presented his poems to everyone.
Everyone looked at Du Ning's poems, and then their eyes widened with different expressions.
Some people were surprised, some were confused, and some felt very strange after seeing the content of Du Ning's poems.
I saw only ten words written on Du Ning's paper.
The green water of Xianglian moves and the cool breeze makes the summer long.
Fan Rulong asked Du Ning in a low voice: "Brother Du, what exactly are you writing? Why can't we understand it?"
Tian Feipeng said: "Brother Fan has no need to doubt that since it was written by Brother Du and we can't understand it, there is only one explanation. There is actually a mystery hidden in this poem, but it is just difficult to understand at our level.
”
"That's it."
Fan Rulong has no doubts about Tian Feipeng's words, because Tian Feipeng is Du Ning's roommate and good friend in the Holy Academy, and naturally knows Du Ning better than others.
"Haha... Is this a poem or a lyric? Could it be that Du Jun was short of words and could only write down these ten words?"
Lei Hua sneered and looked at Du Ning with an expression full of contempt.
Zhang Zewen narrowed his eyes and smiled brighter, "Du Jun, if you are running out of words, just say it. If you retreated from the difficulty, no one would laugh at you. But you know you can't do it but insist on doing it.
This will inevitably make us all look down upon you."
"Shut up! Don't talk nonsense if you don't understand!"
Liu Chengen said coldly: "With Du Jun's talent, how could he be so short of words? It's obvious that Du Jun is 'short sentences into poems', writing a poem with short words. I dare to ask Du Jun, I am
Is your guess correct?"
As soon as these words came out, Zhang Zewen and Lei Hua suddenly turned red.
"Master Liu is right."
Du Ning nodded slightly, but he did not explain, but deliberately piqued the other person's curiosity and let them understand on their own.
Lin Hengyu looked at these ten words from Du Ning, and his expression became more and more serious. Du Ning didn't say anything. This was a difficult problem for him, a bachelor of the Seven Islands Sea Country, and there must be some mystery in it.
Du Ning can easily see the mystery of Lin Hengyu's poems. If Lin Hengyu cannot correctly interpret Du Ning's poems, it will be a great humiliation for Lin Hengyu.
Can a dignified scholar from the Seven Islands Sea Country still be unable to decipher the poetry and prose of a Confucian, Taoist, and Hanlin scholar?
Joke!
"I understand!"
Qian Huai suddenly said: "This is a five-character palindrome poem. Let me read it to you."
"The clear water of Xianglian moves,
The wind is cool and the summer is long.
Cool summer breeze,
The moving water is full of green lotus fragrance."
After reading, Qian Huai continued the topic and said: "This seems to be a 'palindrome of the original poem'. The second half of the poem is a palindrome of the first half, and after reading backwards, it is exactly the same as the poem being read.
Mr. Lin's poem is very similar, and it is also a three-odd poem."
Tian Feipeng immediately added: "Short sentences are also one of the wonders of poetry, and they add up to four wonders."
As soon as the words fell, the faces of the scholars from the Seven Islands Ocean Kingdom suddenly changed.
Scholars from the Holy Forest Continent smile.
But no one noticed that Du Ning's smile became even more mysterious.
Lei Hua and Zhang Zewen were furious. Just now they were mocking Du Ning for his poor words, but they didn't realize that it was actually a short sentence poem. They were slapped in the face by what they said. If this matter spread,
It's enough to make them the laughing stock of the literary world in the Seven Islands Sea Kingdom.
They are not afraid of being embarrassed, but being embarrassed in front of the scholars in the Holy Forest Continent makes them very unwilling to accept it.
Maybe it will be recorded in the history of the Seven Islands Sea Kingdom and be criticized and laughed at by future generations of scholars.
Qian Huai looked calm and said: "Actually, Du Jun's poem cannot be considered 'wonderful' strictly speaking. It is just a show off of his literary talent. Let's change the poem and see that Mr. Lin also has a five-character palindrome.
It is very similar to Du Jun's poems. If he only wrote the cross "The wind blows in the brocade curtain and the moon shines in the lotus pond", wouldn't it be possible to write a short sentence into a poem? If this little trick can also be regarded as "odd",
Then wouldn’t Mr. Lin’s poems also count as one of the four wonders?”
"Well said!"
Zhang Zewen and Lei Hua spoke in unison and cast a very grateful look at Qian Huai. His words were the key words, which made Du Ning's poems less "odd". Then when everyone analyzed it again, the two
No matter how you look at it, people's poems all have similar characteristics. They are evenly matched and it's hard to tell them apart.
"This..."
Tian Feipeng hesitated to speak, but Qian Huai was right. The ten characters of Du Ning formed into a five-character palindrome poem were suspected of showing off literary talent. Strictly speaking, it was indeed not a "wonder".
Moreover, the ten characters of Du Ning are too similar to Lin Hengyu's poems. Lin Hengyu's poems have the same characteristics as Du Ning's poems.
Simply speaking in terms of "oddness", the two are basically evenly matched.
But this is not good news for scholars in the Holy Forest Continent. Today's literary meeting will be hosted by Liu Cheng'en. If the "odd" numbers are the same, Liu Cheng'en will definitely choose Lin Hengyu's poem as the leader.
It seems like unfair treatment, but it is a matter of course.
If Liu Chengen chooses Du Ning's poems to win, then Liu Chengen will no longer be able to live in the Seven Islands Sea Kingdom. He will definitely be beaten up by countless students. Even if Liu Chengen hides in the palace, the monarch will not dare to protect a "letter".
The poetry of "outsiders" is better than the culprit of the scholars of the Seven Islands and Sea Kingdom.
Public anger is hard to offend.
To put it bluntly, if any scholar were in Liu Chengen's position, he would also behave in such a biased manner.
Unless Du Ning's poem can really reach the realm of the "Four Wonders" and convince the readers of the Seven Islands Sea Country, it is impossible for Liu Cheng'en to choose Du Ning's poem as the winner.
"Master Qian is right, Yun Qijun's poem cannot be regarded as one of the Four Strange Poems at all!"
"This Mr. Yunqi is really despicable. It is obviously a poem of the Three Wonders, but he insists on showing off his literary talent and pretending to be a poem of the Four Wonders. He really thinks that we, the scholars of the Seven Islands Sea Country, can't do it? How ridiculous!"

"I'm afraid he thought it was difficult to win in terms of artistic conception, so he used this method to make us mistakenly think it was the Four Strange Poems. To put it bluntly, it has exactly the same characteristics as Mr. Lin's poetry."
"I originally thought that the scholars of the Holy Forest Continent would lose openly and honestly even if they knew they were not as good as our Seven Island Sea Kingdom, but I didn't expect that they would be so unscrupulous. We almost fell into his scheme."
"After all, he is also a human gentleman, but he actually did such a thing, which is really disgusting."
Scholars from the Seven Islands Sea Country made all kinds of cynicism and even verbal attacks.
The scholars in the Holy Forest Continent were blushing one after another, feeling as if Du Ning had really done something despicable, which was extremely embarrassing.
Lei Hua was very angry and said: "Du Jun, we respect you as a literary monarch of the human race, but you can't use this method to humiliate us. To put it nicely, you are showing off your literary talent, but to put it bluntly, you are not trying to humiliate us.
Are you treating me like a monkey? Regardless of the outcome of this essay, I think you should apologize to our students from the Seven Islands Sea Country!"
Zhang Zewen echoed: "Mr. Lei's words are reasonable. You literary friends are here on behalf of the Holy Academy and the human race on the mainland. We scholars from the Seven Islands and Sea Kingdom all treat each other with courtesy, but we never expected that you would actually rely on your
If you come to play tricks on us as Wenjun, you can't be killed but not humiliated!"
"Yes! A scholar cannot be killed! You must apologize!"
Many students from Haiguo followed suit, especially Zhang Zewen and Lei Hua, who shouted the loudest.
The expressions of Fan Rulong, Tian Feipeng and others were extremely ugly. At this moment, they all cast resentful glances at Du Ning, accusing him of playing such a despicable role in front of the scholars of the Seven Islands Sea Kingdom.
Means.
But when they saw that Du Ning still looked calm, they all felt that something was wrong with Du Ning.
They have already been scolded by scholars from the Seven Islands Sea Kingdom, but they can still be so indifferent.
This is really against common sense.
"Master Du, don't stay silent! Say something instead!" someone said anxiously.
"Ahem..."
Du Ning coughed dryly, looked at Lin Hengyu, and said, "Mr. Lin, so much time has passed. You must have seen the poem I wrote, so please recite it correctly for everyone!"<
/p>
After the words fell, the expressions of many scholars changed.
What does Du Ning mean by this sentence?
Have you misinterpreted Du Ning's poem? Isn't it a five-character palindrome?
If it is not a five-character poem, then what should be the explanation for these ten words: "The clear water of fragrant lotus and the cool breeze make the summer long"?
"What kind of mystery is he making? Did Qian Huai misinterpret Du Ning's poems?" Lei Hua asked doubtfully.
"Impossible! If it is not a five-character poem, what kind of poem would it be? Is this not a poem, but a word? Then how should we segment and read the sentences?"
Zhang Zewen hurriedly denied that if they read Du Ning's poems incorrectly, they would become a joke.
The scholars of the Seven Islands Sea Country all think that they have a civilization that surpasses the Holy Forest Continent, but they cannot correctly interpret the poems and prose of the scholars of the Holy Forest Continent? This is really shocking, and they underestimate the scholars of the Seven Islands Sea Country.
Lin Hengyu hadn't seen the mystery of Du Ning's ten words at first, but now that he heard Du Ning speak, he suddenly seemed to have thought of something, and his face suddenly changed.
"Du Jun, please don't change our topic!"
At this time, Lei Hua suddenly interrupted: "Since you are Wenjun, you should face up to your mistakes. Of course, if the majestic Yunqijun doesn't take me, Lei, in his eyes, and doesn't take everyone here in the eyes,
, if you don’t take us scholars from the Seven Islands Sea Country seriously, then you will think that I am talking too much nonsense.”
"Presumptuous! Lei Hua, how can you talk to Du Jun in this tone? This is a very serious violation of etiquette!"
Zhang Zewen shouted angrily, but everyone present could see that they were singing along and deliberately irritating each other with words.
