The situation on the field changed again and again, and everyone's expressions also changed several times.
No one expected that a dignified poet would lose his composure in front of a junior, and even give up his lifetime honors and literary reputation to compete with Qin Dong.
Not to mention success or failure, the mere fact that Qin Dong, a son-in-law, could do this is already shocking and beyond the reach of many of his peers.
In a word, facing Qin Dong as Kong Jianbai was actually a crushing experience. Unexpectedly, the back and forth waves pushed the front wave, and each wave became more fierce than the last. The front wave almost died on the beach.
Qin Dong was going to be the straw that broke the camel's back.
"Old man, after all, you are also a saint of poets, famous all over the world. Is it really necessary to risk your life for a junior like me?"
Qin Dong sighed, pretending to be helpless and said: "Well, since you want to make a bet with your literary name, I will take it."
"Just take it. My first couplet, but no one has cracked it for nearly a hundred years. Even if you knew it in advance, so what? I don't believe you can break this couplet!"
Kong Jianbai roared angrily, having been really fired up.
"It's just a couplet, so what's the problem?"
Qin Dong smiled softly, shrugged, and said calmly: "This couplet should be: The wind is like the flowing water and the clouds are like a boat, who can ride it?"
After speaking, he hugged his fists at Kong Jianbai and immediately said: "Mr. Kong is very kind and generous, and insists on giving me an opportunity. Since I can't refuse, I can only accept it."
"What? You...you actually came out?"
Kong Jianbai's face changed drastically, and he spurted out a mouthful of old blood on the spot. He didn't expect that the literary name and wealth he had worked so hard to cultivate would all be in vain for this bastard Qin Dong!
This kind of thing is not a competition at all, it's like he is licking his face and giving someone a big gift in vain.
If it were not Liang Jingyi who initiated this battle, Kong Jianbai couldn't help but wonder if he had been tricked into committing suicide and giving away more than half of his family wealth.
Plop!
Offended that his literary name was taken away and he was about to retire from the literary world, Kong Jianbai's feet suddenly gave way and he sat down on the ground. He was completely lost, as if his energy and energy had been sucked away.
Not only him, but also Liang Jingyi's face was completely humiliated at this moment.
"How could this happen? Mr. Kong... isn't he a Ci Sage? How could he be defeated by this loser Qin Dong one after another, without even the slightest strength to fight back..."
Soon, Liang Jingyi's voice sounded like a mourner. As the instigator, his desperate behavior became the biggest joke in the audience.
"Defeated? Mr. Kong was defeated like this? Is that bastard Qin Dong really the reincarnation of Wenquxing?" Ye Qingyao's face was ashen. At this moment, she was like a stone in a pit, smelly and hard. If she didn't want to maintain the image of a young lady, she would have been She turned into a shrew and scolded her in public.
"This boy is amazingly talented. He can defeat even the Ci Saint in public. It seems that I, Yuan, made a mistake just now." Yuan Shi shook his head secretly, but he was also impressed by Qin Dong on the spot. If it weren't for his excellent relationship with Ye Qingyao, , even he couldn't help but fall to Qin Dong's side.
With Qin Dong's talent, it is probably a certainty that he will enter the Huangji Taoist Palace in the future. Even if he is not required to pass it on, the news will soon spread to the Huangji Taoist Palace.
By then, those elders who cherish their talents as much as their lives will definitely come and invite Qin Dong. Instead of doing this, it would be better for him to be a favor.
"Tsk, tsk, even the Ci Saint has been defeated. This Qin Dong... is too powerful."
"Isn't it true? From today on, he is not only a poet, but also a contemporary ci saint."
"If I had known this, why did I do it in the first place? Knowing that Qin Dongcai is the proudest person in the world, the two of them still choose to confront each other head-on. Isn't this looking for abuse?"
Everyone in the venue looked at this scene with dull expressions, and all kinds of praises and exclamations almost gathered into a tsunami!
Those who can come to the Poetry Garden Party are all leaders in the literary world. No matter how bad they are, they are also those who highly advocate this way. After today's battle, I am afraid that Qin Dong's literary reputation has soared to the sky, and no one can suppress it anymore. .
I believe that soon, Qin Dong's name will be spread throughout Yanjing City, and will spread to surrounding cities at an extremely fast speed.
In this way, Kong Jianbai and Liang Jingyi, let alone defaulting on their debts, would be magnified infinitely if they paid even one Qi Gathering Pill less, and they would immediately become public enemies in the literary world and be despised by everyone in the world.
It was precisely after understanding this that Qin Dong immediately said: "Since you two have lost, please bring the Qi Gathering Pill."
"Qin, it's true that you won, but I must be convinced. This couplet of mine has been unmatched by no one for a hundred years. Why was it cracked on the spot as soon as you came here?"
Kong Jianbai gritted his teeth and asked. If this question could not be clarified, he would rather suffer eternal infamy than compensate a penny of bets.
"Yes, Qin Dong, if you can't prove that this couplet was written by yourself, I will not give you a Qi Gathering Pill even if I risk the disapproval of the world!" Liang Jingyi immediately came over and agreed, Still making the final struggle.
"It's not difficult at all to break the first couplet. What matters is how to reason and argue."
Qin Dong was not in a hurry, but said in an orderly manner: "For example, if the stars on the chessboard are used as pieces in the sky, who can play them? If you want to break it, you don't have to work hard on the couplet itself, but you have to grasp the key words, which is We need to understand the connection between the sky and the chessboard, and the stars and the pieces."
"As long as I grasp these two points, in addition to using 'The wind is like the flowing water and clouds as a boat, who can ride on it?' I can also use 'The sea is like the ink and paper peaks as a pen, who can write?' to decipher it!"
"Besides that, I can break it with 'Thunder is the war drum and lightning is the flag, who can beat it?', isn't it also breaking the first couplet and becoming an eternal absolute?"
A combination of three breaks!
After Qin Dong's explanation, this answer was immediately explained perfectly and impeccably.
certainly.
The reason why Qin Dong was able to react so quickly was thanks to the terrifying inherited memory of the 'Lingxiao Emperor'. As a disciple of the Emperor of Heaven, if he couldn't kill Kong Jianbai by standing on the shoulders of giants, then what else could he do? It's better to just die.
"Amazing! This first couplet is rare to see in a hundred years. To be able to make even one couplet is already rare. Qin Dong has broken it three times in a row. If he can't be called a saint, who else is qualified to bear the title of saint of this word!"
After everyone listened to the explanation, everyone agreed and expressed deep admiration.
They have all been in the literary world for many years. How could they not know how difficult it is to "break three in one union"? Qin Dong's analysis made them all understand that Qin Dong can always be invincible. It's definitely not luck, it's just that they do have real talent and learning.
"I'm willing to admit defeat! Since Kong's skills are inferior to others, from now on there will be no Confucius ci sage in the Yanjing literary world, only Qin Dong!!"
After all, Kong Jianbai was still a man who wanted to save face. He waved his hand and shot out a green light, which fell towards Qin Dong. Then he glared at Liang Jingyi hatefully and walked away on the spot.
Qin Dong raised his hand to catch it, and saw five Qi Gathering Pills falling into his palm. If they were exchanged for gold coins, they would probably cost more than a million.
The strange thing is that Kong Jianbai's Qi Gathering Pill has been delivered, but Liang Jingyi's face turned blue and he didn't make any move.
The ten Qi Gathering Pills just now had already been emptied out by Liang Jingyi, and now, he might not be able to take out any of them.
"Um...Ms. Ye, I didn't make enough preparations before I went out today. Could you please generously lend me five Qi Gathering Pills?"
Suddenly, Liang Jingyi looked at Ye Qingyao and asked with a very ugly expression.
When Ye Qingyao heard this, he almost wanted to slap this guy to death. The dignified young master of the City Lord's Mansion couldn't even take out five Qi Gathering Pills?
Furthermore, the grudge between her and Qin Dong was deep. The two sides were already locked in a fight to the death, and there was no room for change. If she took out these five Qi Gathering Pills, wouldn't it be equivalent to endangering the enemy?
Seeing Ye Qingyao's unkind look, Liang Jingyi's face also turned cold, and he said in a cold voice: "Miss Ye, although Liang has selfish motives, he tried his best to deal with Qin Dong and fulfilled your wish without hiding anything! This young master has suffered a big loss. If you still want to stay out of the matter and refuse to even borrow five Qi Gathering Pills, then don't blame me for turning your back on me."
"Isn't it just five Qi Gathering Pills? Since Young Master Liang has spoken, I will lend them to you." Ye Qingyao was extremely angry, but under pressure, she still honestly threw out a white porcelain bottle.
Liang Jingyi didn't even look at it. After taking the porcelain bottle, he threw it towards Qin Dong and said through gritted teeth: "My young master's bet has been fulfilled. Qin Dong, we will meet again later!"
After saying that, he walked away, as if he didn't care what everyone in the room said about him.
After being defeated one after another, he had already lost all face. If he didn't leave, wouldn't he have to watch Qin Dong steal his limelight and become the focus of everyone's attention?
