After a while, the discussion was completed.
Zhou You stood up under the recommendation of the other twelve scholars.
Naturally, I made some polite remarks first.
Explain to everyone in the tea house the purpose of coming here.
Of course, some details are omitted.
He just said that he came to the teahouse to listen to a book, and he didn't want to meet this young master by chance at the door. He thought that since they are all talented people from Jiangzhou, it would be an elegant thing to take this opportunity to communicate.
After the opening remarks were finished, Zhou You began to ask questions.
"It's March now, and there are only five months left before autumn. It's the critical time to prepare for the exam. Time is so short. I think it's the time when we, the scholars, are studying hard, so why not use [Encouragement to Learn" ], I would like to advise the talented people in Jiangzhou to encourage themselves."
After saying that, Zhou You looked at Li Suijiu: "What do you think, Master?"
"Good question." Li Suijiu nodded.
In the first few months of autumn, it is indeed a good topic to write some poems to encourage students to study.
Moreover, this question itself belongs to the public and is not considered a remote and unpopular question.
It's just right for poetry.
If an unpopular question really comes up, it will look like bullying. After all, there are thirteen people traveling around. Under normal circumstances, the range of knowledge involved is definitely wider than that of Li Suijiu.
Everyone in the teahouse nodded when they heard that Zhou Yu wanted to use "Encouragement to Learn" as the title.
Everyone thinks this question is appropriate and quite good.
When advising others to study diligently, you can also encourage yourself.
So, the topic was decided.
Zhou You said the rules again: "There are thirteen people in our group. Since we can't all come on stage, we will send five people to compete with the young master. Each of the five people will write a poem. The time is set to one stick of incense. There are five poems in total.
There is only one young master, so there are no restrictions on time or poems. As long as the young master writes it before noon, no matter how many poems he writes, as long as three of them can compare with us, he will be considered the winner. "
Quite atmospheric!
Li Suijiu smiled and replied, "I want to make some changes, is that possible?"
"Oh? Sir, please speak."
"There are thirteen people in your group. If only five of you come, it will somewhat ruin the elegance of the others. Why don't you come together? The time will be set as one stick of incense as Brother Zhou said, and there is no limit on the poems."
"Go together?!"
“Isn’t there a limit to poetry?”
Traveling around is a bit confusing.
Li Suijiu then added: "The time in my area is also set as one stick of incense. According to what Brother Zhou said, there are five poems in total. No matter how many you write, as long as three of them can compare with mine, You will be considered victorious."
It is too arrogant to say that one article can compare with mine.
To say three articles is to talk about etiquette.
"Meow~"
Black Cat nodded.
Obviously he agreed with Jin Lang's etiquette behavior.
However, as soon as this statement came out.
All the guests in the tea house were shocked.
Zhou You and others even opened their mouths.
One against thirteen!
Time is still a stick of incense.
What's even more outrageous is that there are no restrictions on their poems, but the young man can only write five.
"Young Master's remarks are indeed a bit arrogant. He wrote five poems in one stick of incense. Even the gentlemen of [White Crane Academy] would not dare to make such remarks."
"We just assume that you can force it out, but it must be an ugly poem with random words. You deliberately stated such rules, don't you just want to say that we bully the few with more?"
"Yes, under such rules, even if we win, we will still be victorious. Don't you just want to use some scoundrel excuses after losing?"
"Humph, I have long seen that you are not a serious scholar. Today, I heard you say that you are serious!"
The people behind you were excited and angry.
In the elegant room of the teahouse.
A woman in a white dress also frowned slightly.
Most of the talented people in the world are arrogant, but it is rare to be so arrogant.
If there is no real astonishing talent, such remarks will be nothing more than a joke.
I wonder who this young man is?
"Oh, I guess he is another deceitful person, Xiaohuan."
"Miss, what do you want me to do?"
"Go and have a look outside, ask the teahouse owner if he has a written copy of "Shui Mang Cao", and then ask about the location of Huaijin Thatched Cottage."
"Okay, miss."
The young girl Xiaohuan left immediately.
At this time, there was naturally a lot of discussion in the hall.
Li Suijiu made no excuse.
He just said: "Boss Zhou, please light some incense!"
"Um?"
Is this going to start directly?
When Zhou Youfu heard this, he naturally ordered people to light the incense.
Zhou You and others looked at each other, no longer looking forward to this poetry competition.
"Huh, let's see what poems he can write first!"
Traveling around is motionless.
Waiting for Li Suijiu to write the first article first.
At this time, Li Suijiu picked up his pen and said: "I have five poems to encourage learning. The first is "Resolve"; the second is "Study Diligently"; the third is "Cherish Time"; the fourth is "Pathway"; the fifth is "Pathway". [Enlightenment]; I dare you to taste it! As for Brother Zhou and others, they are not restricted, so please feel free to do so."
"Wha...what?"
"Five poems to encourage learning!"
Determined, diligent in studying, cherishing the time, opening up the door, and enlightening your mind!
This is equivalent to setting up a small topic under the big topic of encouraging students to learn. The difficulty is naturally several times, or even dozens of times, more difficult than just writing a poem to encourage students to study.
After all, time is only a stick of incense.
Under such restrictions, it is necessary to make every poem to encourage students to have a clear intention. Who can do this?
Zhou You and others looked shocked again.
They all felt that the young man in front of them did not look like a serious scholar.
But the other party's sentence clearly stated the five different ideas of the question of encouraging students to learn, and it seemed that he was clearly confident.
"Is he really..."
"Absolutely impossible. If the question was asked a few days ago, it might be possible. But how could he finish the question we just asked in one go and write five poems?!"
Zhou You and others naturally didn't believe it.
But Li Suijiu had already started writing on the white rice paper.
With a splash of ink and a quick stroke of pen, he didn't even need time to think. In just a moment, he wrote the first article "Resolve".
"Boss Zhou, take it!"
"Okay... okay!"
Zhou Youfu immediately walked to the desk in person and carefully picked up the white rice paper.
At first glance, my eyes lit up!
"What poem is it? Read it quickly and wait for me to listen to it!"
"Hurry up!"
Everyone can't wait.
Zhou You and others also stared wide-eyed and stood still waiting.
Then I saw Zhou Youfu holding white rice paper in his hand, standing high on a wooden chair, and reading loudly:
"You are young and talented, and you have high ambitions throughout your life."
"Others carry swords, but I have a pen like a sword."
As soon as this poem came out, the whole place fell into silence.
Immediately, it sounded like a frying pan.
“What a poem!!”
"It's a really good poem. Although it's not gorgeous in terms of words, the message of encouraging learning is vivid on the page. After listening to it, I couldn't help but feel the ambition to study and serve the country!"
"What a great article [Resolution]!"
There is no shortage of scholars present, and they naturally understand the value of this poem.
The young girl Xiaohuan had just walked out of the Accord. Before she could find out where the Huaijin Cottage was, she heard the first poem.
Of course she doesn't understand poetry.
So he could only go back to Yage and ask the woman in the pavilion for advice.
"Miss, how do you like this poem?"
"..." A woman in a white dress.
"Is it not good?"
"No, excellent."
"But didn't the lady just say that this young man is another deceitful man?"
"?!"
The current maid is becoming more and more outrageous.
'Liu Chan'er' ignored it and looked at the young man in green shirt with eyes as bright as stars.
She is naturally charming, even if she doesn't deliberately show off, the smile on her lips still shows her charm: "I think I already know who he is!"
(By the way, I actually wrote the title of the last chapter, but I just thought of a comment from a book friend a few days ago, saying that when I was writing the next chapter of "Shui Mang Cao", it was because the previous chapter already had a hint. , so he Baidu read the original text and immediately guessed what I was going to write in the next chapter, which made it seem boring.
After hearing this, I realized that it would be boring to write it out in advance, so I would just delete it instead of writing it! In this way, it will be interesting! Well, in order to prevent you from being too insulting, the update originally scheduled for six o'clock was released in advance. This is not only interesting, but also allows you to enjoy it, and you may be able to get one or two monthly passes, right? )
PS: I recommend another book, "The Mortal Python: Starting with Liu Bang's Killing of the White Snake", a book about alien beasts. It is very good. Book friends who like the novels about alien beasts and their incarnations, you can read it!
