Chapter 156 Ruthless pair
After saying that, Shi Shuqiu quickly added: "Don't play word games. I have already said the two second couplets, Pao Zhen Haicheng Tower and Deng Sa Jinxiu City! You can't repeat them!"
Wang Zixi smiled: "Your two couplets are not treasures, what's the point of repeating them?"
Shi Shuqiu said: "Okay, then you're right, you're right, I'll drink it. You can't check it online, and you can't take too long. By the way, did he check it online just now?"
The person next to him immediately said: "He didn't check just now."
Shi Shuqiu said: "Put away his mobile phone."
Wang Zixu smiled contemptuously and placed the phone firmly on the table, next to Shi Tonghe's hand. Shi Tonghe glanced sideways, then raised his head as if nothing had happened.
Wang Zixu stretched out his index finger, dipped some water in the wine glass, and said:
"If that's all right, I'll start. The first second line, 'Peach Burning Jinjiangdi'."
As he spoke, he wrote on the table with the wine in his hand. The mahogany table melts the wine, leaving translucent traces.
Shi Shuqiu came over, his eyes were big and small, and he stared at this couplet carefully for a long time.
It is indeed good to have the five elements "metal, wood, water, fire and earth" in the radicals. Literally, it can be understood as "peach blossoms are blooming gorgeously on the Jinjiang embankment", and the artistic conception and scenery are beautiful.
“The second second line, ‘Lamp inlaid with deep tung trees’.”
Shi Tonghe picked up his glasses from his chest and put them on, and began to look at the words on the table carefully.
The artistic conception of this couplet is slightly worse, but it is equally clever.
"The third one, 'Autumn covers the ground with maples'."
Wang Zixu raised his hand to finish writing on the table. Dean Li clapped his hands and shouted: "Okay!"
Huang Xinghuo said: "It's so neat."
A teacher named Yu from Nanjing University nearby said: "The third sentence doesn't quite make sense. Autumn all over the ground, what is autumn all over the ground? It feels like it was filled in just to make up the words."
Huang Xinghuo said: "The autumn on the ground is an imaginary finger, just like 'smoke locks willows on the pond'. The word 'lock' is also a fictitious finger. The maple leaves are piled up all over the ground. The autumn wind is blowing. The red leaves are rolling all over the ground. The whole place is desolate. It's quite a scene. . If Teacher Zhong can definitely give a similar usage in ancient poetry. "
Dean Li nodded: "Oh, I didn't expect that this "absolute" sentence can be combined into three sentences. Adding the two sentences from Mr. Shi just now, there are already five sentences, right? "
Shi Shuqiu sneered and raised his glass: "You can still make up three pairs. You are knowledgeable and knowledgeable. You are willing to admit defeat. There is nothing to say. I will just drink."
Teacher Yu stretched out his thumb: "Master Shi is generous! Master Shi is generous! How generous and massive is the first couplet?"
The people around laughed and said, this is an absolute.
Amidst the laughter, Shi Shuqiu was raising his glass, but Wang Zixu stopped him:
"Don't worry, I just said it, You have a drink every time I write three sentences. I haven’t finished writing yet." Shi Shuqiu put down the glass, and the expression on his face changed: "What else?"
The people next to him suddenly fell silent.
Wang Zixu dipped his finger into some wine, and then read while writing:
"The fourth sentence, the lamp hangs down the brocade threshold."
"The fifth sentence, the beacon is sold out."
"The sixth sentence, the bell sinks the pavilion lantern."
These three sentences are all sentences in "The Collection of Zhongzhou Thatched Cottage", and they come from three poems respectively. The antitheses are neater than the first three lines, and the calligraphy is more ancient. Especially the second line, "The beacon is sold at the extreme end of the sea," and the artistic conception is broader than that of the first couplet.
Wang Zixu was especially careful, knowing that the further he got to the end, the more likely Shi Shuqiu would be to cheat and find fault with his words, so he specially left these three sentences for the end.
Sure enough, Shi Shuqiu and several other people who wanted to please Shi Tonghe came over and studied the wine stains on the table for a long time, trying to find the flaw, but they couldn't figure it out.
After reading each of the three sentences twice, Shi Shuqiu sat back down unwillingly, shook his head and said nothing for a long time, then looked at him and said, "You didn't do it just for this, did you? Otherwise, where would there be so many second couplets?"
Everyone looked at Wang Zixu and shared his doubts. The first half of the sentence "Smoke locks the willows in the pond" requires racking one's brains even to write the second couplet. If it hadn't been for sudden tutoring, it would be difficult to explain that one person could write so much on the spot.
Someone said: "It would be boring if I just checked my phone secretly just to mess with Mr. Shi."
Huang Xinghuo quickly said: "Just now I have been chatting with Xiao Wang, and he has not checked his mobile phone. "
Everyone looked at Huang Xinghuo, and Huang Xinghuo added: "I guarantee with my personality that he has never checked his mobile phone."
Dean Li smiled and said: "Professor Huang is an associate professor in our college. Everyone will believe what you say. 'Using personality to guarantee' is a bit of a fuss. Professor Huang, don't say such things in the future, otherwise you will be looked down upon by juniors."
On the surface he was criticizing Professor Huang for making a fuss out of a molehill, but in fact he was implicitly siding with Professor Huang. The subtext was: The associate professor of our college has said it, and he even vouched for his character, so why don’t you believe it?
No one spoke at this time, Shi Shuqiu finally said: "It's my fault. I drank two cups of Ningchun Banquet just now. I'll return the favor and drink two cups, okay?"
Wang Zixu shook his head: "I haven't said it's over yet."
Dean Li stared: "Is there more?"
Teacher Yu stretched out his hand and frowned: "Hey, who is that, Xiao Wang? You have enough, that's almost enough."
Dean Li stretched out his hand to stop him: "No, I really want to see him Can you still write three sentences? Xiao Wang, you can’t miss one sentence! Do you dare to have a drink? ”
“What’s wrong with that?” Wang Zixu raised a smile.
Shi Shuqiu drank two glasses of wine at Ningchun Banquet, how could he let it go so easily?
He asked him to pay back double the amount.
While reading, he wrote on the table:
"Sentence 7, fishing in the autumn of Mojiang."
"The 8th sentence, the title of the building is the autumn of Seihu Lake."
"The 9th sentence, the autumn of the riverside village."
Teacher Yu glared and said: "They are all 'autumn'? Did you do it on purpose?"< /p>
Huang Xinghuo said: "It all ends with the word "Autumn", so there is nothing to say. After all, it is not writing poetry."
Wang Zixu raised three fingers to Shi Shuqiu and shook them, only to see that his face turned pale.
“I know, three cups,” Shi Shuqiu said, looking at his expression, his face changed, “Is there more?”
“Yes.” Wang Zixu said.
Having said that you will give back twice as much, even missing a cup does not count as double the money.
As Wang Zixu spoke, he wrote: "The range hood is blocked by rust..."
Seeing this sentence, everyone thought for a moment, and then laughed.
“Smoke locks the willows in the pond, and rust blocks the range hood.” Although the text is vulgar, it does have the five elements, “smoke” versus “rust”, “lock” versus “blocking”, and “pond willow” versus “range hood”. According to the "ruthless pair" approach, it makes sense.
"Qingwu Dui" only seeks the relative nature of the words, without telling what the words actually refer to. For example, "Fairy Cave" versus "Vaseline", "Dongpo Meat" versus "Spain", "Amphetamine" versus "So I Smell".
This ruthless opponent, Wang Zixu was very ruthless when he wrote it, and used it to kill Shi Shuqiu. Just now he wrote 9 pairs, but Shi Shuqiu didn't break his defense. This "rust-blocked range hood" finally allowed him to break his defense. No matter what else he planned to write next, Wang Zixu grabbed the cup and stood up, saying in a rough voice:
"That's enough, that's enough, don't If you write more, I can only drink three cups. I only drink three cups, one cup more than before, and the place will be returned to you, okay?” After hearing this, Wang Zixu stopped writing and wiped his fingers on the tablecloth, indicating that he would stop it.
Shi Shuqiu had just drunk Ning at the spring banquet, and he wanted to let him experience the feeling of being drunk, retaliating. It's just that Shi Shuqiu was a little angry and lost his grace after losing.
Shi Tonghe took off his glasses and said: "This little brother has written so much, which is interesting, but if he only does it for gambling and drinking, it seems a bit unbroad-minded. I think, otherwise, forget it."
Wang Zixu's face changed slightly.
Forget it? Forget it?
Dean Li stretched out his hand and said to Wang Zixu: "Forget it, listen to Teacher Shi, you and Mr. Shi shake hands and make peace, and we are no longer acquainted today."
The atmosphere in the room was a little more relaxed, and the tense atmosphere just now disappeared. Someone immediately stood up and actively toasted.
Dean Li blinked at him. Shi Tonghe still sat in the upper position calmly, not looking at Wang Zixu.
Shi Shuqiu breathed a sigh of relief, put down his wine glass, and sat back in his seat, an embarrassed smile slowly appeared on his face.
Only then did Wang Zixu realize that what Shi Tonghe said "forget it" actually meant forgetting the three cups just now.
Dean Li’s eyes wandered, hinting him to return to his seat.
The look in his eyes was a private hint, not to pressure others, nor to please Shi Tonghe. Wang Zixu knew that he was trying to remind him. If you have to spare someone's place and spare them, Shi Tonghe has already spoken out, so you should give him face and don't offend Shi Tonghe to death.
Don’t chase after the poor guy. He took advantage of Shi Shuqiu’s meal. It’s time to settle the matter and take advantage of it.
But, Wang Zixu was a little unwilling.
“Who just said that you can keep your word?”
Shi Shuqiu just put down the wine glass, and his arm froze.
Wang Zixu took another step forward: "I wanted to drink for Editor Ning just now. Who said that I am willing to admit defeat and keep my word? When I dare others to drink, I have to keep my word. When it comes to myself, I don't have to forget it. Really?"
Shi Tonghe frowned and looked up at him but hesitated: "Hey, you..."
He paused mid-sentence and then shook his head.
The smile on Dean Li's face became even thicker, thinking that the editor Ning Chunyan had hired was too reckless. He had to find the situation in front of so many people and prevent Shi Tonghe from coming to Taiwan.
What he just meant was to imply that the prince was being arrogant and helping Shi Shuqiu. If he could make friends with the Shi family in the future, there would be benefits that no one could ask for on their knees, especially for someone like him who majored in Chinese and was involved in the publishing industry.
In the end, he just didn’t understand.
It’s not that Wang Zixu doesn’t understand, he understands everything, he just doesn’t want to understand.
You, Shi Tonghe, feel sorry for your precious son, so you can just write off the three glasses of wine you finally persuaded him to get. Why didn’t you let me drink on Ning Chun’s behalf just now? If you don't drink, you won't be given face. If you advise you to drink, you won't be given face. If I dare to love you, Shi Tonghe will give you too much face, right?
Shi Shuqiu relied on his status to go to the stage and say that the little prince was a woman, but he had to personally approve it. He, Wang Zixu, is used to being bullied by others. He has no temper to bully you casually. How can Ning Chunyan be bullied casually?
He didn’t agree.
He tilted his head and looked at Shi Shuqiu: "Young Master Shi won't break his promise, right?"
Shi Shuqiu stood up, with the same expression as at the Ning Chun Banquet just now, filled the glass in his hand, raised it high, raised it in front of his face, and said:
“One cup.”
After that, drink up.
“Two cups.”
Another full drink.
When he was pouring the third glass, his hand was already shaking and he was a little unsteady on his feet. The person next to him came over to help him: "Forget it, forget it." He pushed him away and the wine spilled on the floor.
“Three...cups.”
Shi Shuqiu raised his head, his throat rolled, and he swallowed the third cup with difficulty. Wang Zixu stared at the empty wine in his glass, then returned to his seat as if he had retreated, holding his chopsticks to eat the food.
“Ugh...”
Not long after Shi Shuqiu sat down, he vomited all over the floor. Someone immediately got up and called the waiter.
Wang Zixu was not in the mood to eat anymore. He suddenly remembered that Ning Chunyan was still in the bathroom and had not moved for a long time. He didn't know if he was hiding from the wine or was really lying in there, so he hurried over and knocked on the door.
After knocking several times but no one answered, I stretched out my hand and pushed it. Fortunately, the door was not on the threshold. When I went in, I found that the situation was worse than I imagined. Ning Chunyan, who always loved cleanliness, hugged the toilet and sat on the ground with her legs in a lunge. She leaned her head on the toilet mat and closed her eyes. She didn’t know whether she was sleeping or awake.
Wang Zixu closed the door and hurriedly stepped forward to help her up. Ning Chunyan's body was weak and boneless, her head tilted on his shoulder, and there were still food residues on the corners of her mouth.
Wang Zixu patted her face and found no movement. He thought that she might be suffering from alcohol poisoning. He didn't care about avoiding suspicion, so he took off his clothes and put them on her body, picked her up and rushed out.
After briefly speaking to the people at the table, who were all taking care of Shi Shuqiu and no one cared about him, Wang Zixu hurriedly kicked the door and left, called a taxi and went to a nearby hospital.
While waiting for the car outside, Ning Chunyan woke up a little when the cool breeze blew. When Wang Zixu carried her into the car, she woke up completely.
“What are you doing?”
Wang Zixu looked surprised: “Are you okay?”
“You don’t want me anymore?”
Wang Zixu got into the car and said to the driver in the front seat: "Go to the hospital."
Ning Chunyan was furious: "Even Kapibala like you doesn't want me anymore, what's the use of my life? In this case, I won't pretend anymore and go to Rock Kingdom!"
The driver turned back in confusion: "Where to go?"
"To the hospital."
Ning Chunyan fell on Wang Zixu and cried, squeezing his thighs hard with her hands, gritting her silver teeth: "I hate it!"
The driver finally started the car and headed towards the hospital. Wang Zixu was grinning in pain in the back seat. It took him a long time to pry her hand away. As a result, she tilted her body and lay directly on his lap. She waved her pink fists in the air, and two of them hit his chin, making him see stars.
“You only want to win the heart of one person, and you won’t show any mercy, and your words are better than your singing. What qualifications do you have to make my hair turn into frost? There is no time, take me to Rock Kingdom!”
The driver said: "It cost 200 yuan on the bus."
Wang Zixu finally took Ning Chunyan to the hospital. The doctor judged that there was no need for injections. Even if injections were needed, she would not cooperate and finally prescribed some sobering medicine. So Wang Zixu took her back to her own home.
With a moment of anger, the place was found for Ning Chun Yan, but so far, all Ning Chun Yan's plans fell through. Not only did this banquet fail to promote Wang Zixu, but it also gave him connections in two magazines that would allow him to publish articles, it also offended people like Shi Tonghe. Wang Zixu didn't know how to explain to Ning Chunyan.
But after Wang Zixu offended many people, he began to have more debts than he needed to worry about. He had his own methodology to comfort himself: a person like Shi Tonghe would have no problem getting in touch with the little prince. He would not give any benefits to others, and even coming here would feel like a huge favor. As a result, he gave his son three glasses of wine and felt heartbroken. If he is really stupid and wants to be petty in revenge, it means that this person is difficult to please and easy to offend. It is best to stay away from him, otherwise he will suffer a lot in the future.
Wang Zixu didn’t know how to explain it to Ning Chunyan when she woke up, but he would naturally leave it to tomorrow to worry about it. Let’s have a good sleep today.
Fortunately, Wang Zixu knew the location of her home. Ning Chunyan has a small house of 70 square meters in Donghai, where she lives alone. When he actually carried the person downstairs, he hesitated again.
This world always sets up all kinds of traps for men, such as the zipper on the crotch, the copper head on the belt, and the fragrant boneless drunken beauty on the shoulder.
Of course, the third party is not often seen in daily life. At least the risk of the zipper on the crotch is always with a man's life: if you take the little monk out of this thing to go to the toilet, then according to Murphy's law, sooner or later you will be pinched by this thing and scream. This is a man's life trap.
So when Wang Zixu stood downstairs, he hesitated for a moment: At what stage should I get out of sending the Ningchun Banquet upstairs?
In her current state, it is definitely inappropriate to throw someone on the sofa and leave. That would be cool, but the next day there might be news that a female writer choked to death at home after being vomited by herself.
It is obviously safer to help her upstairs to wash her face, pick up water and carry a basin, and wait until she regains some consciousness before leaving. But when will she regain her consciousness? Maybe this stay was just for one night. When tomorrow, he would still be squatting at her house, it would be unclear.
Ning Chunyan stretched out her hand and pulled his cheek: "Kapibala, what do you mean by love?"
Wang Zixu put her arm slightly on her shoulders and said, "Let's go to Rock Kingdom."
Ning Chunyan's eyes lit up, she stopped talking, and followed him honestly.
He didn’t think about what to do later. He read a couplet in "The Secret of a Little Window" that he admired greatly: making friends must be a bit chivalrous, and a person must be a little honest. He can only rely on pure impulse now, but he does good deeds without worrying about his future.
Go upstairs.
He put Ning Chunyan’s arm on his shoulder, grabbing her wrist with one hand and wrapping the other around her waist. He tried his best not to touch it with his hands. The consequences of this would make Ning Chunyan uncomfortable and he would also feel uncomfortable.
She used a little perfume today. The unknown fragrance was mixed with the fragrance of her usual skin care products, plus the smell of alcohol on her breath, mixed into a wonderful smell. There was fine sweat on the soft skin, which was powdery and the blood vessels were visible.
If her high heels hadn’t stepped on his toes, the current situation might have been better.
Finally took out the key, opened the door, and brought Ning Chunyan into the room. At this time, she was well-behaved and kept silent, which made Wang Zixu feel relaxed.
But he suddenly noticed that Ningchun Yanjia was brightly lit, and the lights in the living room were all on.
“Dang Dang!”
A voice came from the living room, and a woman with skin as white as snow came out of the side room and stood in front of him, making eye contact with him.
At that moment, the prince seemed to have returned to many years ago.
She is Chen Qingluo and he is Wang Zixu.
If Chen Qingluo was wearing other clothes besides underwear, the reunion scene might be even better.
