Chapter 621 Fighting for the leader to win Wuximu

When the people in the two arenas gradually calmed down, Huo Ji said again: "It's very easy to win the championship in both arenas. In the literary arena, the one who answers the most puzzles correctly wins. In the martial arts arena, kill birds and win flowers. Win more. Those who intend to kill will be disqualified and expelled from the ring!"

"Puzzle? What kind of puzzle? How can there be a puzzle? Isn't it right to recite poems?"

"Kill the birds and seize the flowers? How do you seize them? The birds are alive, so we can't fly to the sky, right?!"

"Huo Ji is such a lunatic! No, I won't compare! I won't compare!"

About dozens of people struggled again and again, and finally chose to abstain, jumped into the water and swam towards the shore.

Fortunately, there was someone from the opposite bank to respond, and they returned to the shore safely.

At this time, they heard the sound of the machine running again, and the sound seemed to come from the middle positions of the two rings.

As the floors separated in parallel, a ten-foot-long high platform slowly rose, and did not stop until it reached the height of half a person.

On the platform in the middle of the Wenlei Arena, there are thousands of golden brushes, the nibs are very clean and there is no ink.

The martial arts arena is full of bows and arrows, their shapes are exquisite and small, and the arrows are only the size of a palm.

"Look at the sky!" Someone suddenly shouted.

Everyone looked up at the sky, only to see that the Kongming lanterns floating in the night sky suddenly flickered, and then white rice paper floated profusely.

Those rice papers seemed to be drawn by some invisible thread and flew towards Wenlei Arena, but instead of falling on the ground, they were suspended beside them, within reach.

On the white rice paper, beautiful and elegant fonts come into view, those puzzles do not seem difficult, but
A scholar picked up a writing brush, touched the nib of the brush, and shouted to the high platform: "Guan Shi, there is no ink for the pen, and there is no paper for the question. How do you want us to answer it?"

The steward stood silently without saying a word or answering.

Tang Zhixing, who was the first to enter the ring, also picked up the brush. Suddenly, a voice came to his ears.

'Dip in water, point paper. '

He raised his head abruptly, looked around, and saw that everyone was still in confusion.

what happened?Is it an illusion? !
He rubbed his ears, quietly walked to the edge of the ring, while no one was paying attention, tapped the river water in the pool with a brush, and then lightly touched the rice paper floating in the air
Suddenly, everyone around him retreated, and the scene in front of him changed, and he actually came to a mountain.

And he actually changed his outfit, looking at the Orion costume on his body, he felt very confused.

Suddenly, an old man with a white beard appeared suddenly, which startled him a lot.

"Xiaosheng pays homage to Mr. I don't know why Xiaosheng appears here?"

The old man didn't answer, but asked self-consciously: "The two sides are at war, a mutual compromise, one of them sent two soldiers, one of them holds a letter of war, and the other holds a letter of peace. One can only tell the truth , one of them can only tell lies, but you can only ask one of them a sentence, what is the solution to this question?"

Tang Zhixing: "."

He bowed his head in deep thought, then raised his head suddenly after a while: "Xiaosheng knows! Just ask one of them what the other party is holding. If he says that the other person is holding a letter of war, it must be a letter of peace. If he says that the other person is holding a peace agreement, it must be a letter of war! No matter what, just listen to it the other way around! Sir, I wonder if Xiaosheng's answer is correct?"

The old man smiled in satisfaction, waved his long sleeves, and Tang Zhixing was dizzy. When he came back to his senses, he found a scholar next to him calling him.

Tang Zhixing nodded lightly and said, "I'm sorry, Brother Song, I just seemed to be in a daze."

The scholar surnamed Song sighed: "This General Huo doesn't know what to think. He has a pen but no ink, and he can see the crossword puzzle. Even if he knows the answer, he can't answer it!"

Tang Zhixing subconsciously looked at the crossword puzzle just now, but saw that the words on the rice paper had disappeared
After hesitating for a moment, he whispered into Song Ziqi's ear and said, "Brother Song, you only need to dip the pen tip in water and lightly touch the rice paper to answer."

"Really? How do you know?"

"Uh, I guess."

Tang Zhixing didn't tell the truth. After all, he didn't know if there were hidden rules in this literary battle in the arena. If there was something wrong, it would only increase the trouble.

"Thank you Brother Tang for letting me know, I'll try it now."

Tang Zhixing nodded, watching Song Ziqi dip the brush in water, and then get up to touch the rice paper. He stood motionless as if an old monk had fallen into a trance. It took about a cup of tea before he came back to his senses.

Like him, Song Ziqi was full of joy after being confused: "Brother Tang! I got the answer right! But that snow mountain is too cold! I thought I saw a ghost at first!"

snow mountain?Don't they see the same vision?
Tang Zhixing said with a smile: "Congratulations, Brother Song!"

After that, he turned to look for other crossword puzzles.

After about a stick of incense, other literati also discovered the way to answer the question.

Suddenly, someone said in amazement: "Look quickly! Have there been fewer lights in the sky!"

"Eh? It seems that there are really fewer! Does it mean that every time we answer a question correctly, there will be one less lamp?"

"In that case, there is not enough time left for us?"

"Then what are you chatting about, work harder!"

Tang Zhixing watched them continue to answer questions in a hurry, and turned to look at the martial arts arena next door. As the Kongming lanterns gradually decreased, their visual range became smaller and smaller.

The Kongming lantern goes out, and the battle in the arena ends.

On the painting boat opposite, He Liang also noticed the clue, playing with the emerald jade finger on his thumb, and smiled playfully: "General Huo is really good at calculating, two ring matches, one thing you have in your hands has been promoted , until tomorrow, the shops you have quietly acquired recently will come in handy. Second, you have gathered a wave of people, and third, you have easily found a large number of talents for you. Fourth, send out the roots of Wuximu, Maybe it can save a catastrophe. Kill four birds with one stone, General Huo is very capable!"

"My lord's absurd praise." Huo Ji's voice paused: "I don't know if you still like the gift you will give to your lord at the end?"

"The head of General Luo Qi Nanzheng? This king is very satisfied. Su Zhen is very young, but she is good at tactics, and she can even teleport hundreds of thousands of miles. His wind and snow blows into needles , One person blocked the twenty-five generals of the Southern Wilderness! Recently, the spies buried in Luoqi sent news that Luoqi's rising trend of reform was inseparable from Su Zhen and He Lan who was born in commoner. If so If you don't kill people, you will definitely mess up Xiliang in the future."

Huo Ji smiled but didn't smile: "My lord, although you will be away, you will not accept your order, not to mention that you are not a lord! Let's take care of the previous account, but I hope that your lord will put the overall situation first in the future! Don't do it again Chill the hearts of the soldiers!"
