Lin Feng chuckled and said, "Wang Can, since the theme is frogs, I will compose a song called "Ode to Frogs." Listen carefully."
"Sitting alone in a pond is like a tiger crouching, nourishing one's spirit under the shade of a tree."
"If I don't speak first when spring comes, which insect will dare to make a sound?"
A song called "Ode to the Frog" was recited from Lin Feng's mouth. His voice was rich and resonant, and it could be heard clearly in the surroundings. All the people around the high platform started talking when they heard Lin Feng's frog poem.
After many people muttered, they looked at Lin Feng with some shock.
This poem is so powerful.
Gu Changgeng had also approached the high platform. He listened to Lin Feng's words and murmured to himself: "Master's uncle's poems are domineering. If I don't speak first when spring comes, what insect dares to say something? These words are really good."
Gu Changce laughed and said: "Wang Can was still thinking about waiting for my uncle to write poems to find out the mistakes. Little did he know that after my uncle wrote "Ode to the Frog", he was completely out of luck. I didn't dare to take out his poems when I saw them."
Gu Changming said: "My uncle is not only outstanding in talent and learning, but also powerful in business operations. Such a person can be called an unparalleled scholar. Alas, it is a pity that my uncle cannot stay in Jin."
Gu Xi was also there. He looked at Lin Feng who was swaying freely on the stage, but he also sighed.
Such a great talent, it's a pity that the Emperor of Qin won Jiuxiao at an advantage.
Xu Liuli was also in the audience. She looked at Lin Feng, especially since this poem was written temporarily without any preparation in advance. However, one of Lin Feng's poems, no matter how beautiful it is, the words are not beautiful. But the spirit of this poem is quite extraordinary.
It can be described as having great spirit.
The scholars around him were also talking a lot.
Many people have heard Lin Feng defending everyone in Qifeng Tower, and now they can't help but sigh when they hear Lin Feng writing poetry.
Lin Fengshi is so talented.
Wang Can listened to the comments around him, and clenched his hands covered by his sleeves, with a look of uneasiness on his face. He had written a poem about frogs when he was in Qi State, so he was certainly ready.
Wang Can asked himself that it was very good.
But when he compared this level of courage, he felt that he couldn't compare with it, and he already felt stage fright in his heart. After all, once the gap between the two sides is large in terms of poetry, they can be directly distinguished.
Lin Feng smiled and said: "Brother Wang Can, it's your turn. Don't wait any longer. You just said that you represent Tian Zi Yun Tian Gong's lineage and want to fight me. Now, show off the courage and ambition you shouted earlier. , come, take out your poem."
Wang Can came here with bad intentions. He wanted to wipe out his reputation on this New Year's Eve festival, and even wanted to trample on him to establish his reputation. Since Wang Can came here with bad intentions, Lin Feng would not show mercy.
Wang Can's cheeks twitched, and he gritted his teeth and said, "I also have a song called "Ode to the Frog."
"The sound of frogs is not enough to hear, so why not make it less noisy to your ears."
"But if you know how to follow things, you dare to envy the cunning of the world."
Wang Can recited one of his poems, but when he reached the end, he lost his previous confidence and his voice was a little soft. Because of the superiority of the two poems, one can easily tell at a glance that Lin Feng's poetry is too grand and there is no comparison between the two.
Shh! !
There were already boos around the high platform.
Gu Changgeng even shouted: "Wang Can, your poem is a bullshit poem about frogs. With such a bad poem like yours, you dare to compete with Mr. Lin, you are not overestimating your ability."
"Wang Can, you can't do it."
"After all, you, Wang Can, are Tian Ziyun's disciples. Is it possible that Tian Ziyun, the great scholar of Qi State, has only this ability to teach a useless disciple like you?"
"Wang Can, you are a waste!"
Shouting came and went, and many people directly mocked Wang Can. Because for these people, they like to see success and see these so-called celebrities embarrassed.
Very comfortable.
I felt extremely happy.
Wang Can's face turned completely dark, and he clenched his hands tightly in his sleeves. He didn't even notice that his nails had dug into his flesh. He only felt his face burning and even his mind went blank.
Lin Feng saw the scene around him and looked at Wang Can's predicament without any mercy. If he can't beat Wang Can, then Wang Can's current predicament is his situation, and he may even end up worse than Wang Can.
Wang Can asked for this.
Lin Feng smiled and said: "Wang Can, what do you think of our respective poems?"
Wang Can gritted his teeth and said, "I lost."
Lin Feng said: "Do you want to continue?"
"certainly!"
Wang Can spoke in a deep voice.
He couldn't just admit defeat because there was still a fight to come. He has prepared enough poems to definitely win. And right now, this is just the first failure, so it’s nothing.
Lin Feng looked at Wang Can's stubborn look and said with a smile: "Wang Can, I admire your confident yet ignorant and fearless look. Because you can continue to hold on shamelessly even when you are beaten by me like this."
Wang Can said: "The outcome is yet to be determined."
Lin Feng shook his sleeves and waved his hands and said: "Okay, now it's my turn. Listen up, my riddle is very simple. Thread a needle to the moon to seek marriage, and magpies are not idle in building bridges. Let's pray for a breath."
Wang Can laughed loudly and said: "Lin Feng, Lin Feng, I didn't expect your riddle to be so simple. There are myths and legends about the Cowherd and the Weaver Girl in ancient times. The two meet once a year on Chinese Valentine's Day. The answer to this riddle is Chinese Valentine's Day."
Lin Feng said: "You are very smart."
The smile on Wang Can's face disappeared immediately, looking extremely embarrassed.
You are very smart?
What a smart guy!
Such a simple riddle, you can answer it directly without using your brain.
Wang Can rolled his eyes and suddenly understood. His eyes were sharp and he said in a deep voice: "Lin Feng, you did it on purpose. You wanted to use the Qixi Festival to write poems on purpose, so you did it on purpose."
Lin Feng smiled and said, "Isn't it possible?"
"sure."
Wang Can snorted and said: "I want to see what kind of poems you can write? The song "Ode to the Frog" just now was just because you took the lead and is not worth mentioning."
Lin Feng smiled and said: "On the Chinese Valentine's Day, I don't write poems. This time I wrote lyrics, called "Magpie Bridge Immortal"."
"The thin clouds make tricks, the flying stars spread hatred, and the silver man is far away in darkness. When gold, wind, jade and dew meet, they will defeat countless people in the world."
"Tender love is like water, good times are like dreams, and we can't bear to look at the Magpie Bridge on our way home. If our love lasts for a long time, how can we stay together day and night?"
Lin Feng recited it directly without any pause.
Wow! !
There was a buzz of discussion among the surrounding crowd.
The poem "Magpie Bridge Immortal" is deeply affectionate and graceful. Especially in the last two sentences, if the love between the two lasts for a long time, how can it last day and night, which completely sublimates the realm of the entire poem.
This is the song of the ages.
Xu Liuli listened to Lin Feng's words and muttered, "If our love lasts for a long time, how can we stay together day and night?" ' Her wonderful eyes turned, even more tender.
This is Lin Feng's talent.
Xu Liuli had seen Lin Feng's talents when he was in Xianyang. Lin Feng's "Butterfly Loves Flowers" and "The Green Jade Case: Yuan Xi" are both beautiful words that can be sung through the ages.
Now this song "Magpie Bridge Immortal" is no less generous.
"Master Lin, his poetic talent is unparalleled."
Gu Changgeng, who was below, couldn't help shouting, and his heart was even more excited. He was also a member of the Xun family, and Wang Can represented Tian Ziyun's lineage to challenge him. Gu Changgeng was extremely happy to see Lin Feng show off his power.
Gu Xi has always valued etiquette. In the past, he would have scolded Gu Changgeng when he saw him talking so out of the blue. But at this moment, he was stroking his beard, smiling, and looking very excited. .
Many scholars around him discussed it one after another.
Everyone looked at Lin Feng with even more admiration and admiration.
too strong.
Lin Feng's poems are incomparable.
It's simply incomparable.
At this moment, Wang Can felt as if the eyes around him were extremely hot, making him feel uncomfortable all over. As a person with excellent literary literacy and a graduate of Jixia Academy, Wang Can is also extremely intelligent.
But when it came to poetry, especially in front of this song "Magpie Bridge Immortal", he completely lost his ability to compete.
He was completely outmatched.
It is true that he has written poems related to Chinese Valentine's Day before and revised them carefully. But compared to Lin Feng's poem, if you take it out, you'll be beaten. It's better if you don't take it out.
Lin Feng looked at Wang Can who looked a little dazed, smiled softly, and said: "Wang Can, now I have composed a Chinese Valentine's Day poem, and now it's your turn. Write a poem with the Chinese Valentine's Day as the theme."
"I lost!"
Wang Can took a deep breath, gritted his teeth and said, "I admit defeat in this round. There is no need to write any more poems."
Lin Feng said: "Do you want to continue?"
Wang Can looked around. Countless people looked over, their eyes full of banter, all looking at the joke.
It's as if he is a clown.
Wang Can's mind was spinning. He knew that he would definitely not be able to beat Lin Feng in terms of poetry. Especially when it came to riddle guessing, there was no way he could win the competition method proposed by Lin Feng.
In this situation, he will definitely lose.
If he continues to compete in riddles and poems, his ending will not change in any way.
If you want to change, you have to change your approach.
Change the method of competition.
Wang Can's mind was spinning rapidly, and suddenly his eyes lit up, and he said seriously: "Lin Feng, when it comes to guessing riddles and writing poems, I am willing to admit defeat. I am willing to admit defeat. But what Wang Can is best at is not guessing riddles. Do you dare to compete with me again, in a different way?"
Lin Feng suddenly sneered and said, "You can't afford to lose, so after losing, do you want to get it back in other ways?"
"Do you dare to answer directly?"
Wang Can is aggressive.
He had already been embarrassed today, so he didn't care about anything else. He had to go all out and force Lin Feng into a corner and let Lin Feng lose to him. Only in this way can he have a chance to turn things around and make Lin Feng admit defeat.
Lin Feng smiled, looked at the scholars and people around him, and shouted: "Everyone, do you think we should compete?"
"Compare, keep competing."
Immediately some scholars shouted in reply.
"Compare it."
"Mr. Lin, continue the competition."
"Wang Can can't afford to lose, Mr. Lin, let him be convinced that he lost, let him be completely convinced."
"Mr. Lin, just do it."
more and more people chanted.
These scholars were just watching the fun, and they didn't mind it as a big deal. They all looked like they were just watching the fun. Today is the New Year's Eve festival, which should be lively, so now that Wang Can comes to challenge, everyone is happy.
There were very few entertainment methods in this era. Going to a brothel to listen to singers singing and dancing was the most popular way. But such consumption is beyond the reach of most people. Only wealthy gentlemen and dignitaries can afford it.
Therefore, it is best to watch the excitement, everyone is cheering loudly.
They all asked Lin Feng to agree.
Lin Feng raised his hand and lowered it, signaling the people around him to quiet down. After a while, the surroundings became slightly quieter. Even though there was still some noise around this time, it was not as noisy as before.
Lin Feng looked at Wang Can and said sternly: "Wang Can, everyone asked me to agree to you. You want to challenge again, which has exceeded the previous agreement. You have already lost once. However, I can agree to your challenge, but there are One condition.”
Wang Can asked: "What are the conditions?"
Lin Feng said: "Can you represent Tian Ziyun?"
"certainly!"
Wang Can held his head high and said loudly: "I am the teacher's favorite disciple, and even his disciple, so why not?"
Lin Feng nodded and said: "In this case, the contest between you and me represents our respective sects. I represent my master Xunzi, and you represent my master Tian Ziyun. No matter what you propose to compete, I, Lin Feng, agree. But when the contest is over, Luo How about the losing side shouting loudly in front of everyone, saying that their teacher is not as good as the other side’s teacher, and that their school is not as good as the other side’s school?”
brush!
Wang Can's complexion changed slightly.
Lin Feng was so courageous. He refused to give up and even became aggressive.
This condition is not simple.
Once you lose, it will not only be embarrassing, but also the teacher's face, and the teacher's reputation will be ruined.
Wang Can took a deep breath and felt a little nervous. He said in a deep voice: "Lin Feng, have you really thought it through?"
Lin Feng flicked his sleeves and said forcefully: "Of course I have thought it over carefully before putting forward such a condition. Could it be that you, Wang Can, dare to come up to challenge, but in fact you are too timid to compete with me?"
"Since you can't shoulder the responsibility, why bother coming up to challenge? Why don't you just stand at the bottom?"
"Could it be that you want to pick up the slack and think that if you defeat me, you can become famous, right? If you don't dare to do it, go down alone and no one will say anything."
Wang Can was furious.
Go down?
How can he get off now?
In front of all the Jin scholars, in full view of everyone, if he gives in at this time, he will be a coward. As soon as this matter spreads, his reputation as Wang Can will be completely ruined.
He took the initiative to propose the challenge. Lin Feng directly increased the stakes, making the conditions different. Under such a premise, Wang Can was now being roasted on the fire by Lin Feng, unable to advance or retreat.
If he agrees to Lin Feng's conditions, he will face the consequences of defeat. If you don't agree, you will lose your reputation.
Lin Feng looked at Wang Can's hesitant expression and sneered in his heart. If you want to take advantage, if you want to step on Lin Feng's body to become famous, this is the price.
Lin Feng was always merciless to his enemies.
Wang Can provoked.
Lin Feng naturally fought back.
Lin Feng said aggressively: "Wang Can, are you a man? If you want to fight, fight. If you want to be cowarded, get out of here. You act like a woman and waste my time. You took the initiative to challenge, and now you are Hesitant. As a disciple of Tian Ziyun, I even doubt whether you are serious?"
"Of course I mean it."
Wang Can gritted his teeth, held his head high and said, "Of course I am serious. If you want to fight, I will accompany you to the end."
Lin Feng said with a smile: "You are wrong. It is you who want to challenge me. I, Lin Feng, will accompany you to the end. It's just that you agreed to my conditions. Since you agree to the conditions, now you can tell me how to compete, and I will comply with them one by one." Down."
Strong words and heroic gestures.
Lin Feng's scene is amazing.
The Jin scholars who were watching saw this scene in their eyes and couldn't help but praise and shout loudly.
The atmosphere became even more intense.
One is a disciple of Xunzi.
One is disciple Tian Ziyun.
The contest between the two sides was naturally very lively, and all the scholars became excited and excited.
Wang Can looked around and secretly resented the booing from the Jin scholars around him. But now he has agreed, so there is no room for retreat. Wang Can said in a deep voice: "Lin Feng, you and I are competing now. You agree to any contest you want, right?"
"certainly!"
Lin Feng said forcefully: "Whatever you want to fight, I will accompany you to the end."
Wang Can said: "Okay, let's compete in arithmetic. Arithmetic has been around since ancient times. You and I each give a question and test each other to see who can answer it in the shortest time. The first person to answer it wins."
"are you ready?"
Wang Can's face showed a proud look.
He studied under Tian Ziyun and was quite accomplished in poetry, and he was also outstanding in talent and learning. However, Wang Can himself liked to study arithmetic and had profound attainments in this area, so he used arithmetic to test him.
Lin Feng was a disciple of a general. With such a background, even if he studied with Xunzi, he would have outstanding talents and martial arts, but his talents and martial arts would not be able to play a role in arithmetic.
After Wang Can told the content of the challenge, he held his head high and looked like he was sure of victory. Because he believed that his competition plan was absolutely unexpected.
This was something Lin Feng never expected.
This time, he will win.
