Chapter 707
Everyone on the side of Taihe Academy was stunned. Those people just said that just to save face.
Unexpectedly, Lin Xuan would say such a thing.
Li Shimin, Fang Xuanling and others on the high platform frowned slightly, feeling that Lin Xuan was a little reckless.
It is true that Lin Xuan did not win very well, but Taihe Academy was challenged by more than a dozen academies to Boyuan Academy.
The strengths of the two sides are not equal at all. Looking at it this way, Lin Xuan is actually the one who suffers, and that disgrace is nothing.
"What's Lin kid doing, he obviously won, so what's the comparison?" Cheng Yaojin said angrily.
From Cheng Yaojin's point of view, this is like fighting a war. He has already won the victory with the least cost through a clever plan, but he gives up the victory and insists on fighting the opponent squarely. Isn't that stupid?
Meng Yuan smiled and said: "Since Master Hou said so, we also want to communicate with him more, so let's do what Master Hou said."
He was afraid that Lin Xuan would regret it, so he wanted to confirm this matter. By then, it would be too late for Lin Xuan to regret it.
"Okay, then I'm out of the Shanglian." Lin Xuan didn't mean to regret it at all.
There are many absolutes that have been passed down for many years in history, some have been matched, and some have never been matched.
Take out any one at random, and it is impossible for these people to face each other within a stick of incense.
As the new stick of incense was lit, Lin Xuan thought for a while, picked up a pen and wrote a few words on the paper.
When the boy lifted up the paper and everyone saw the words on it, someone laughed and said: "It's just a simple five-character couplet, I can match it with me."
Not only him, but anyone present who knows a little bit about couplets, at first glance, they all think that this couplet is very simple, and it only takes a little time to get it right.
There are only five words in the first couplet—Yan Suo Pond Willow.
"No, this couplet is not that simple. The five characters contain the five elements of gold, wood, water, fire, and earth."
Lu Qian didn't underestimate Lin Xuan. When he first saw the Shanglian, he thought it was too simple. But how could a person who can match his Shanglian come up with such a simple Shanglian? He looked carefully at it. Look, I quickly discovered the mystery.
Everyone took a closer look, and sure enough it contained the five elements of gold, wood, water, fire, and earth, but they didn't pay attention to it. Isn't it just containing gold, wood, water, fire, and earth? There are so many Chinese characters, as long as you spend a little time thinking about it, it is not difficult to match them.
Lin Xuan didn't know what they were thinking. Indeed, as long as someone who knew a little bit about couplets saw this couplet, he would immediately feel that this couplet was not difficult. He only needed to find the right words to match it.
It's just a matter of spending a little time.
However, they are somewhat ideal of course.
This Shanglian is an absolute that has been passed down through the ages. Lin Xuan doesn't know when it appeared, but until he crossed over, this Shanglian was still an absolute.
What is right?
It's just that no one can match the second line.
Some upper couplets seem to have only a little bit of mystery, and they don't feel difficult to people, but you can't make up for it after spending a lifetime.
Yansuo Pond Liu is one of those upper couplets who can't match up for a few lifetimes.
For thousands of years, countless literati have tried to correct it, and there are some seemingly good couplets, but they are either inconsistent in artistic conception or inconsistent in mediocrity.
Lin Xuan remembers watching a passage in "Iron Teeth and Bronze Teeth Ji Xiaolan" in his previous life. Qianlong published this upper couplet, and the second couplet in the play is Paodui Zhenhai Tower.
When Lin Xuan saw this at the time, he felt very puzzled, didn't he say that Qiangu is absolute?How did it come out right.
I checked it specifically, and this second line is not right.
The second couplet also seems to contain metal, wood, water, fire and earth, which seems to be a match, but it is not.
First of all, in terms of rhythm, the second and fourth characters of the upper and lower couplets are in flat tones, which are not neat in terms of rhythm.
In terms of connotation, this second line is also inconsistent.
Yansuo pond willow is powerful because not only its radicals contain gold, wood, water, fire and earth, but the things represented by its characters also contain gold, wood, water, fire and earth.
However, the word town in the lower couplet only contains the word gold, and the word town itself has nothing to do with gold.
The second is the artistic conception. The first couplet is quiet and elegant, while the second couplet is rough on Kongwu. Although it is quiet, moving, literary and military, it is not harmonious.
So this line does not match.
For thousands of years, there are still many good couplets, but either there is a problem with the mediocre artistic conception, or there is a problem with the radicals.
Among all the second couplets, the most suitable one is 'Tao Ran Jinjiang Embankment'.
Its artistic conception is far-reaching, especially the word "burning" is used very well, and the order of the five elements' radicals is just right.
But the disadvantage is that Jinjiang embankment is not a common term, so Jinjiang embankment is not very suitable for pond willows.
From the perspective of mediocrity, the upper line is mediocre mediocre, and the lower line must be mediocre mediocre or mediocre mediocre mediocre mediocre mediocre mediocre mediocre mediocre mediocre mediocrity.
Among them, flat and flat are the most neat.
That is to say, the fourth character of the second line must be in a flat tone, but Jiang Nai has a flat tone, and does not match the flat tone of the upper line with a flat tone.
Therefore, Yansuo Pond Willow has been regarded as the eternal absolute, and until Lin Xuan crossed, there was no second line that was recognized by everyone.
"Have you thought about the next couplet?"
"It's almost there, it's almost there."
"I also think it's a little bit close, but I can't figure it out."
People from Taihe Academy couldn't help but whispered to each other.
It stands to reason that it is inappropriate for them to do so. After all, although there is no rule that communication is not allowed, Lin Xuan wrote the questions alone, but they communicated with each other when they answered the questions. Even if they answered, it would be a bit embarrassing.
However, almost everyone is thinking about the second line at this time, and no one cares about it at all.
Many people already have some ideas, but they always feel that they are close.
It's like looking at a woman with a graceful figure through a layer of veil, but you can't see clearly if you want to see clearly, like a cat scratching in your heart.
Seeing them frowning or thinking hard, Lin Xuan felt secretly happy.
Right, hell if you can match up.
This upper couplet has been passed down for thousands of years and no one can match the perfect second couplet. He doesn't believe that anyone can match it in just a short time.
Not to mention the time for a stick of incense, what if you give them 100 years?
Of course, the premise is that these people can live for 100 years.
Lin Xuan didn't mean to remind them, didn't you say it was simple?Then you are right.
Time passed slowly, and the incense in the censer became shorter and shorter.
Finally, when the incense burnt out, the guard boy shouted, "It's time."
The boy is illiterate, so naturally he won't be attracted.
Only then did everyone come to their senses, and those who shouted "simple" before did not make a sound.
They never expected that they looked at the simple online couplet, but no one matched it until the end of the time.
Lu Qian looked at Lin Xuan excitedly, and asked, "Dare to ask Lord Hou, what is the second line?"
Lu Qian is different from others. He likes couplets very much, which can be described as obsession.
When I come across such an upper link, I naturally want to know the second link.
Lin Xuan spread his hands and said, "I don't have a second line either."
Everyone almost vomited blood when they heard Lin Xuan's words, why did you post a couplet if you didn't download it?And let us think about it for so long.
