Literati Sanctification

Chapter 103 Bet
"Hello, brother, hello, brother!"

When Heng Xiulin came to the riverside, there were already many talents waiting for the boatman to dock. When they saw Heng Xiulin approaching, they didn't respond coldly and rejected Heng Xiulin. When Heng Xiulin came, he cupped his hands again and again, and then said hello to Heng Xiulin.

"Brother, you are also here to guess the riddle?"

A gifted scholar waited until Heng Xiulin stood up, and immediately asked with a smile.

"Exactly, I want to come and see if I can solve the mystery that has been circulating for a long time." Heng Xiulin responded with a smile when he heard the words.

"That's great. That riddle has kept me waiting for a talented scholar for several years. This is a great shame for me to wait. If this puzzle continues to exist, I'm afraid I will lose face."

"Exactly, so we should work together to solve this puzzle."

When the others heard Heng Xiulin's words, they immediately echoed in unison, looking at Heng Xiulin with indescribable kindness in their eyes, Heng Xiulin naturally reacted when he saw this.

It seems that the reason why these talented people are so kind to him is because they are all preparing to solve the puzzle, and it is the time when they are fighting against each other. Seeing him coming now, they naturally regard him as the same kind of person.

Seeing this, Heng Xiulin also smiled slightly, and did not defend himself.

"Hmph, some talented people with little talent have a serious tone, and they dare to make false claims to solve this riddle. They are simply talking in sleep."

During the discussion among the few people, as soon as the inappropriate words came in, they sneered and looked at everyone with a disdainful face.

When everyone heard the words, they immediately looked angrily, and saw that the man was dressed in brocade, with a closed fan in his hand, with a sneer on the corner of his mouth, and he was sneering at everyone.

"Yi Zehua!"

When everyone saw the man, they were stunned for a moment, and then they exclaimed, looking at the man with a somewhat ugly face, Yi Zehua is also a well-known talent in the imperial city, and the poems he wrote can rise to five inches This is an existence that they all want to look up to.

"Hmph, I can't wait. You are not the same, and you can't solve the riddle?"

Although Yi Zehua's name is great, it doesn't mean that everyone is afraid of him. When even one person stood up, looked at him coldly and said, his face was full of resentment.

"That's right, you can't solve the riddle yourself? Why are you laughing at us?"

"That's right, you said that you are very powerful, you should solve Ling Yueliu's riddle, if you can't solve it, why are you laughing at us?"

When everyone heard this, they immediately echoed and said that they were still afraid of Yi Zehua's name at first, but now that someone is taking the lead, they are naturally willing to follow.

Yi Zehua's expression froze when he heard the words, and then he looked at everyone with cold eyes. Although he didn't want to admit it, he had to say that not only him, but other talents at the same level as him couldn't solve it. that puzzle.

In private, they all tried to solve the riddle, but to their great distress, they couldn't solve the riddle, otherwise, they would have solved it a long time ago, and then publicly said that they would listen to these talented people. .

Let them know that it's not that they are embarrassing these low-level talents, you can even match them, why can't you match?

If such a thing happened, these talented scholars would probably spread it in private. They created this riddle to embarrass them, and they couldn't solve it themselves, although the fact is indeed the case.

But sometimes, people still need a fig leaf, and it's not good to be exposed so nakedly.

"Hmph, I have this invitation letter, why do I need to solve the riddle? Isn't it all for entering the boat and seeing Liu Feifei? Besides, if I solve it, you will be less likely to solve it." I got a quota to enter the painting boat."

Yi Zehua adjusted his mentality slightly, and after his face returned to normal in an instant, he said with a sneer at everyone, and raised the invitation letter in his hand while speaking.

A talented person at his level is naturally qualified to enter the painting boat, so he naturally has the invitation letter, and it is a naked show off to dangle it in front of everyone.

Everyone froze when they heard the words. What Ize said was not wrong. Although they didn't want to admit that no matter how high-sounding the words were on the surface, in fact, their purpose was to enter the painting boat.

They are all talented, and their face is relatively low in this respect, so they can't do anything to lie at all. Now Yi Zehua directly said what was on his mind, so that everyone didn't know how to reply for a while.

When Heng Xiulin saw this, he shook his head slightly. Yi Zehua was rather alert. When he was blocked by the crowd, he quickly changed the topic, and then defended himself to attack. The talents beside him seemed a little stupid Yes, it was actually blocked by a word.

Heng Xiulin originally didn't want to meddle in other people's business, but now these talented people just now regarded him as a similar person and were so enthusiastic about him, it didn't seem very good to just ignore him, even if they just opened their mouths.

"Speaking of it, aren't you trying to hide the fact that you can't solve this puzzle? Speaking of the low level of others, it seems that you can't solve that puzzle. Do you think you are the same as them?"

Yi Zehua, who originally blocked everyone's words, was extremely proud of himself. He is quite a kind of verbal battle at the moment, and he regards the pleasure of everyone being suppressed and unable to lift his head. Hearing these words suddenly, the expression on his face The complacent expression froze immediately.

"Looking at you, you look very strange. You just came here, right? Right now, you must think that with your help, the puzzle will definitely be solved, but what I want to tell you is that your idea can't be used. It won't be long before they disappear, because there are so many talented people present, when they first came, they all had the same ideas as you."

Yi Zehua looked at Heng Xiulin, smiled immediately, and then said sarcastically.

Heng Xiulin shook his head, this guy speaks very powerfully, he keeps diverting the topic, and doesn't answer his own words directly, if it is an ordinary talented person, he might have diverted the topic long ago, but it is a pity that he met himself.

"That's right, that's how I feel. If I get involved, the puzzle can definitely be solved. But you, don't change the subject. Do you think you can solve the puzzle? If you can't, why are you different from them? What qualifications do you have to laugh at them, you know, you are the same as them!"

Hearing Heng Xiulin keep repeating, I am the same as these wits, Yi Zehua is so angry that his lungs are almost exploding, but he is a high-level wit, and the writing can be as high as five inches. Like these geniuses, in Yi Zehua's view, this is the biggest insult to him!

Immediately, Yi Zehua's eyes turned red, and he stared at Heng Xiulin with an icy coldness in his eyes.

"Boy, you really dare to say it. I don't know how many people have thought about what you said, but no one has ever dared to say it. It was a puzzle created by Miss Ling Yueliu. You really thought you could solve it. In the city, I don’t know how many people have tried it, but now they can still exist well, which is enough to explain everything. Do you think that you are better than the people in the whole imperial city?”

Although Yi Zehua was in a hurry, he still didn't answer Heng Xiulin's words, and started to refute Heng Xiulin's words.

"If you say this, doesn't it mean that as long as you can't do things in the imperial city, other people can't do it?"

Heng Xiulin ignored the entrapment in Yi Zehua's words, and said directly, if he said he could, I'm afraid it would be bad luck if the words got out, you know, in this imperial city, there are still With the emperor here, this Yi Zehua is extremely clever, but it is a pity that Heng Xiulin is not fooled.

"Hmph, I didn't say that, I just said that you can't solve those puzzles."

Seeing that Heng Xiulin finally stopped pestering him and couldn't solve the puzzles, Yi Zehua felt relieved when he was like these people. Although it was a pity that Heng Xiulin was not fooled, it was acceptable.

At this moment, all the talents on the side came to their senses, just like what Heng Xiulin said, that Yi Zehua kept changing the subject to cover up the fact that he couldn't solve these puzzles.

So after hearing Heng Xiulin's answer, everyone wanted to applaud Heng Xiulin, but in a blink of an eye, Heng Xiulin seemed to have forgotten this, and Yi Zehua led the topic away, which made everyone a little impatient, but But it's hard to say anything, so I can only worry on the sidelines.

"You say I can't solve it, so why don't you come and make a bet?"

The corner of Heng Xiulin's mouth curled slightly, and then a smile appeared on his face, and then he said to him, he was not taken away by Yi Zehua, but he just knew that if he continued like this, there would be no result, so Changed strategy.

"Okay, how to bet?"

Hearing Heng Xiulin's anger, Yi Zehua almost didn't laugh out loud, this kid actually wants to bet with him?So many people have not been able to solve the riddle, and it is simply delusional for him to think about it, but since he wants to seek death, let him be fulfilled!
Yi Zehua thought with a sneer in his heart.

"If I can untie it, you will admit to your face that you are the same as them."

Heng Xiulin didn't think much, pointed at everyone, and then said to Yi Zehua with a smile on his face.

"Okay, if you lose, I want you to kowtow and admit your mistake!"

When Yi Zehua heard the words, he nodded without hesitation. Heng Xiulin's face darkened slightly when he heard the words. He was not afraid, but suddenly felt that his bet was low?

"Why, don't you dare?"

Seeing Heng Xiulin's face change slightly, the talented man immediately laughed out loud, and looked at Heng Xiulin with a playful look.

"It's not that I dare, but if I win, you also need to kowtow to admit your mistake."

Heng Xiulin took a breath, and then said that he originally wanted to save some face for him, but since he doesn't cherish it, there is no need to keep it.

"Okay, if you win, so will I."

From Yi Zehua's point of view, Heng Xiulin is sure to lose, and there is absolutely no chance of winning. In this case, even if the stakes are high, it is impossible for him to lose anyway.

"Okay, if I lose, I will follow what you said."

Seeing that Yi Zehua responded, Heng Xiulin felt a little relieved immediately, and then said with a smile on his face.
