Xu Que's arrival suddenly made the mood of many scholars present drop to rock bottom.
A person who can casually compose ten famous poems that can be passed down through the ages actually says that what he is best at is actually making pairs. This is a life-threatening situation!
Of course, those scholars who thought Xu Que had no talent and relied on plagiarism sneered non-stop!
Including Mr. Zhao, they had already seen through that Xu Que had no talent. The artistic conception of the ten poems was completely different. At a glance, it was obvious that they were copied at random.
But when it comes to pairing, you can’t just copy it randomly. Pairing tests your true talent, and it even requires quick wits on the spot!
Therefore, at this moment, Mr. Zhao's eyes, which were originally indifferent as frost, now have a little more playfulness in them.
He believed that as long as he was right, this "Li Bai" would be able to reveal his true rough side.
"Master Li, where did you go just now? I thought you left without saying goodbye!"
At this time, Mrs. Ya spoke with a smile, and the appreciation revealed in her beautiful eyes was almost undisguised.
However, for the veteran driver Xu Que, this kind of look often means that he is about to have sex. Looking at Mrs. Ya's magnificent body, he smiled seriously: "Mrs. Ya, you are too worried. I just did nothing."
Go out for a walk and find the true meaning of life in the rain!"
"Giggle... Mr. Li is so elegant!" Mrs. Ya burst out laughing!
Everyone present stared with eyes wide open, their hearts burning with jealousy.
The beauty of a young woman like Mrs. Ya can be said to be unrivaled in the imperial city, and she is the only object of dreams for many young scholars during the long nights.
But due to Mrs. Ya's identity, no one dares to be contaminated in the slightest!
Now that Mrs. Ya was showing her unabashed appreciation for Xu Que, many people felt as if their women had been robbed, and they were filled with jealousy and resentment.
Even Mr. Zhao and others couldn't help but have cold eyes.
Xu Que, however, behaved calmly. Under everyone's murderous gazes, he leaned against the entrance of the hall, keeping a perfect diagonal curvature of his body, took out a pack of cigarettes from his arms, and took out
Hold one in your mouth!
"Snapped!"
He snapped his fingers, a wisp of flame burst out from his fingertips, lit the cigarette, and took a puff.
The next moment, he took out a bottle of beer out of thin air and drank heavily, his face full of enjoyment and happiness!
…
Everyone in the audience was stunned. What the hell is this guy doing? Is he actually sucking a roll of paper?
And that drink, it looks weird, but it has a strong smell of ale?
"Brother Li, what is that thing in your mouth?" Tang Liufeng also asked a very curious question.
"puff!"
Xu Que suddenly spit out a sip of wine from his mouth, glared and said angrily: "Take your sister! Tang Bohu, do you know how to speak? This is called cigarettes. Adding beer to cigarettes has boundless power. Do you understand?"
"..."
When everyone heard this, they suddenly had a dark look on their faces.
Beer and cigarettes, boundless magic?
Does this guy know what it means to be a pair? It’s not like he wants to fight, but he actually uses strange things to give himself magic!
Mr. Zhao also sneered and shook his head: "I don't know what it means to flatter others!"
Mo Yunshang also looked disdainful and looked at the crowd and said: "Everyone, let's start doing something right. We don't need to pay attention to some laymen!"
When everyone heard this, they all came back to their senses and nodded. After all, today is a banquet, not watching that "Li Bai" do anything weird!
Madam Ya looked at Xu Que curiously, and some of the book girls were also fascinated.
I don’t know why, but I just feel that Xu Que, who is leaning against the door, puffing away smoke and drinking wine, is particularly handsome and charming!
"Ding, congratulations to the host 'Xu Que' for successfully pretending to be cool, and will be rewarded with 40 points of pretending!"
"Ding, congratulations to the host 'Xu Que' for successfully pretending to be cool. You will be rewarded with 60 points of pretending!"
The system prompts also echoed in Xu Que's mind, and he earned back the cost of a pack of cigarettes.
This cigarette is a good thing!
This beer is even better!
The so-called "Li Bai's hundred poems over a glass of wine", today I, Xu Que, just add beer and cigarettes, and my power is boundless.
Hearing the reminder that he had succeeded in pretending, Xu Que became even more angry. He took a puff of cigarette with a mean expression, and then actually blew out the cigarette at Mrs. Ya and her maids in full view of everyone.
Circle it.
Chug tug tug...
The smoke ring was actually heart-shaped, and under Xu Que's control, it slowly floated in front of Mrs. Ya.
Give it a sip!
Mrs. Ya gently inhaled the heart-shaped smoke ring. The smell was a bit choking, but it made people even more inexplicably excited.
Moreover, the smell of smoke seemed to be mixed with the smell of the talented "Master Li" in front of her. This novel and incomparable experience immediately made Mrs. Ya feel a little bit ecstatic all over her body.
But at this time, who would pay attention to Xu Que's strange behavior of using both cigarettes and beer!
It was agreed that the next step would be to couplets. All the scholars in the hall had already put their minds on the couplets. Everyone was thinking about when to take out some of the "absolutes" they had thought of and make things difficult for the scholars present.
them.
A scholar stood up first and said confidently: "I just thought of a first couplet a few days ago. Let's start with it today. Everyone, listen up."
He paused and said loudly: "The sky is against the earth, the rain is against the wind, the continent is against the sky, the mountain flowers are against the sea trees, and the red sun is against the sky!"
After the words fell, everyone was startled.
Immediately, everyone frowned and started thinking hard.
This pair seems loose and simple, and seems to be correct for many things, but every sentence has rules to follow.
Originally, some scholars who thought they had some talents were planning to stand up and "show off their embarrassment", but when they heard the specific content of the pair, they all stopped and shook their heads, smiling bitterly.
Seeing that few of the scholars present seemed to be sure about this pairing, Mr. Zhao raised the corner of his mouth and responded calmly without thinking about it: "River to Han, green to red, Yu Bo to Lei Gong, Yanlou."
To the Snow Cave, to the Moon Palace to the Heavenly Palace!"
Everyone was immediately surprised, and then they praised again and again: "Wonderful, wonderful!"
"As expected of Mr. Zhao, he thought of the second couplet so quickly!"
"What a wonderful match!"
The scholar who wrote the first couplet also nodded, cupped his hands and said, "Young master Zhao is really talented, I am ashamed of myself! You really showed your shame just now!"
Mr. Zhao smiled faintly and did not respond. He was so cool!
"The spring is against the stone, the stem is against the branch, the bamboo is against the spring silk, the mountain pavilion is against the waterside pavilion, and the parrot is against the cormorant." At this moment, Xu Que, who was standing at the door, puffed out smoke and responded lightly to the second line.
Everyone in the audience was stunned for a moment, and they were all horrified.
