"This bastard actually admitted defeat and wasted all my usual teachings." Qin Zuye couldn't help but cursed angrily.
"Let the little guys handle the matter. Why are you so angry? Come on, come on, come on. I got some good tea last time. It was transported from the earth, the 'Buddha's Hand' from Wuyi Mountain in Fujian. I After soaking twice, it's still soft and soft, without that overbearing taste. Come and help me find out what's wrong." Tang Tianyao looked relaxed, walked to the coffee table, started boiling water, and cleaned the tea set.
"No, no, what kind of tea should you drink so early in the morning?" Qin Zuye was very angry. Even so, he walked to the sofa and sat down heavily.
After only a few minutes of work, I couldn't help but stand up, grabbed the tea set, and said impatiently: "Go away, go away, I'll do it. Tea art is a state of mind. If you insist on it like this, it's good. The tea also makes you tasteless."
Tang Tianyao smiled slightly and didn't agree. He took two steps back and sat on the sofa. His style was stern. Even when he was with friends, he would sit upright and not change for several hours.
Qin Zuye is also an unusual person. Among the brothers, he is active and the most impatient. However, he is good at making good tea, watering, washing, pouring... a set of procedures, which flow smoothly and give people a pleasant feeling. It doesn’t feel like making tea, but an art.
"Drink." Qin Zuye placed the tea heavily in front of Tang Tianyao. Normally, with such a heavy movement, more than half of the tea should splash out, but with a full cup of tea, not a bit of the tea splashed out. Tang Tianyao was not surprised at all. He picked up the tea, poured it into his mouth, and smashed it twice, regardless of how hot it was.
"It's up to you to make the tea. It tastes much better."
"The cow chews the peony." Qin Zuye felt unhappy again when he saw him like this, "You have ruined a good cup of tea."
"You drink to nourish your body, and I drink to quench my thirst. As long as it works, why worry about other things." Tang Tianyao poured another glass by himself.
"Don't be too happy too early. Although you pulled back the score, the final success still belongs to our Xinfeng University." Qin Zuye said bitterly.
"Didn't you talk about drinking tea? Why are you talking about the competition again?" Tang Tianyao frowned.
Qin Zuye's face twitched and he was speechless. After drinking a cup of tea, he felt extremely bitter in his mouth.
…
"Liu Wei'an, how many talents do you have hidden away? You are good at running, horse walking, and writing. Now you don't even let go of shooting. Why don't you let others live?" Xiao Jie surrounded Liu Wei'an, Mi Tai said it bluntly, but with a smile on his face.
"It's just a coincidence." Liu Wei'an said modestly.
"You have made great contributions to the school." Xiao Jie whispered: "If it weren't for you, our Xinglong University would have completely failed this time."
"What should I say?" Liu Wei'an was worried. He really didn't understand the significance of this competition.
"There is an annual competition between Xinglong University and Xinfeng University. The content of the competition is the Six Arts of the Gentleman to determine the number of places to go to the army." Xiao Jie stood on the side with his chest straightened to get a little hero's light, and the adoring eyes of those beautiful classmates It made his eyes laugh, and he whispered: "Our Xinglong University has lost several competitions in a row, and the military subsidies for our university have been reduced again and again. If we still fail this time, we will lose the competition next year." It’s time to face the northwest wind. This time, you have come back for our university. Your results are the best in the past few years. The school should be able to have more funds next year. With such a contribution, the school will naturally be grateful to you."
Liu Wei'an felt relieved immediately. He didn't really care whether the school was grateful or not, but in this environment, not many people would pay attention to the matter of absenteeism. This is good news. At this time, after the students' enthusiasm was vented, they returned to normal a little. Tang Dingdong, representing Xinglong University, and Xinfeng University, represented by Bai Zige, discussed the final game.
"I guess no one here plans to develop into an engineer or scientist. I think boring projects like analytical equations can be eliminated. Let's do something new this year to test our memory. How about it?" Bai Zige seemed to solicit Tang Dingdong. opinion, but the tone is affirmative.
"I have no objection." Tang Dingdong breathed a sigh of relief, and was even faintly happy. Her memory happened to be her strong point, and she should be more confident in this round.
In previous years, Xinfeng University had an absolute advantage. The competition items were all proposed by Xinglong University. This year is the first time that Xinfeng University has asked questions. No matter whether the questions are suitable or not, Tang Dingdong can only agree to it. Such a result makes She was satisfied.
"In order not to waste time, we will win out of three. We will have three people here, and you will have three people here. For the memory test, we will draw lots for the first question, and for the next two questions, each side will have one, how about it?" Bai Zige said .
"Okay, let's do it." Tang Dingdong nodded in agreement. Bai Zige's arrogance meant that he would not take advantage of this. The conditions he proposed were fair, so she naturally had no reason to object.
The three contestants from Xinfeng University are Bai Zige, Yang Tianjiu, and Li Feiyi.
Three people from Xinglong University were also quickly selected: Tang Dingdong, Ye Meimei, and Liu Wei'an. There was a bit of a commotion when Liu Wei'an was recommended. The reason was that Xinglong University had selected a candidate for this level of competition a few days ago. She was a classmate from Class 6 named An Ying.
The decision to cut An Ying off and replace her with Liu Wei'an was all due to the full support of a class of classmates. In addition, Liu Wei'an's reputation was rising, so there was a temporary change of generals.
In the first round, Xinfeng University set a question and Xinglong University drew lots. The question was to recite a thousand numbers in one minute. According to the order, whoever memorized the most numbers and the order was good, and there was no shortage or increase, won.
"The game begins." The host was a staff member from Xinglong University.
Li Feiyi and Tang Dingdong raced against time to memorize the numbers on the tablets. The questions were the same. Using computers was to prevent cheating. There was no pattern to follow when scrambling the numbers.
"The time is up, the dictation time is five minutes." In fact, the staff did not say it, but the two had to put down the tablet because there was a time limit on the tablet, and the question would be closed once the time was up. The students around them didn't dare to take a breath for fear of affecting the two of them. In the huge square, you could hear a needle drop.
For everyone waiting for the result, one second is a long time, but for Tang Dingdong and Li Feiyi, five minutes is shorter than five seconds and flies by.
"The time is up, please stop writing." The staff pressed the stopwatch in their hands. After solving it, it’s time to see the results, and the results will come out quickly.
Li Feiyi wrote 786 numbers correctly, and Tang Dingdong wrote 789 numbers correctly, winning by a slim margin of three words. Students at Xinglong University applauded in celebration. In the first game, I won, which is a very good sign.
"In the second round, you come up with the questions." Bai Zige's voice was not loud, but he suppressed the voices of the whole audience. This skill was revealed, which surprised everyone.
Tang Dingdong's gaze shifted from Liu Wei'an to Ye Meimei, "Meimei, come up with the question."
Ye Meimei is a very graceful woman, as gentle as water, and speaks in a soft voice. Being stared at by so many people, she blushed slightly and whispered: "Count the beads."
The rules for counting beads are very simple. Throw a handful of beads on the ground and the one with the closest number wins. The time is usually one to three minutes. It involves a bit of luck, but it tests mental arithmetic and memory.
When the large bucket of colorful beads fell to the ground, everyone was shocked. This was too exaggerated. The beads rolled on the ground, which made the points infinitely rarer. The special feature was that the colors were colorful, which affected attention. , Ye Meimei and Yang Tianjiu from Xinfeng University stared at the ground, highly concentrated.
Liu Wei'an was also counting. He had never done any training in this area before, and he found it very interesting, very lifelike, and very close to reality. After counting dozens of beads, I quickly followed the normal calculation method. It is absolutely impossible to count all the beads in three minutes. Due to the different dynamics and directions of the beads falling, the speed and angle of the beads are different when they roll, and they rub against each other. , collision, unless you wait until the beads stop, it is impossible to count the number, but time waits for no one, wait until the beads calm down, it is estimated that the time is up.
How to do it?
Liu Wei'an put himself into it and imagined how he would count if he were himself. This question tests not only memory, but also vision and thinking. When I was feeling confused, I suddenly had a flash of inspiration and thought of archery. Arrows have trajectories, and beads also have trajectories. Everything seems chaotic, but in fact there are rules to follow. It’s just that there are too many rules, and it looks like a mess. In fact, As long as you find the pattern of each bead, you can accurately determine where the beads are going and where they will stop at each moment.
"1889." Liu Wei'an came to his conclusion one second before the three minutes were about to end.
"The time is up, please announce the results." The staff walked to the center of the arena, and the students around them closed their mouths. The arena suddenly became quiet, and they all looked at the two contestants.
"Classmate Ye Meimei, please go first." Yang Tianjiu made an elegant gesture. Don't look at their arrogance, it is arrogance towards people of lower status, but they are still very graceful to people of equal status.
The Ye family is also a big family in Tianfeng Province.
"1885." Ye Meimei smiled shyly and showed her answer as a return gift. Liu Wei'an frowned. The answers were different. Someone must have had a problem, whether it was him or Ye Meimei, it was not a good thing.
Yang Tian didn't wait for the host to look at him for a long time before revealing his answer: 1886.
The host announced the answer: 1888, Yang Tianjiu wins.
Ye Meimei's face suddenly turned pale, and her nervous expression instantly turned into sadness, feeling very guilty. Xinglong University was silent, and the atmosphere on the playground was somewhat depressing.
"Concession." Yang Tianjiu casually handed over his hand and withdrew from the Xinfeng University camp.
