Chapter 258

When I entered, I saw that this place was actually next to the Qintan River, and a long pavilion several miles long was built, which was divided into several sections.

Lin Wanrong had just entered, and a servant took him to the long pavilion, brought tea and cakes, and bowed to leave. The reception was not bad, Lin Wanrong snorted secretly, picked up a piece of cake and chewed it.

This long pavilion is built along the river, all made of bamboo. The sparkling waves on the Qintan River, the boats are like shuttles, and the scenery is very charming. Sitting in the pavilion, the waves are on the water, the breeze is gentle, and it is very clean.

Forty or fifty talented people have already gathered in this pavilion, all of them are in high spirits, extraordinary momentum, and feel good about themselves.

Lin Wanrong grabbed an honest talent next to him and said, "Brother, how did the poetry competition go?"

"Brother, you don't even know the rules of the poetry club?" The genius gave him a strange look and said, "This is also interesting."

"This, my little brother's literary talent is not good. I just came in to see it. I don't care much about the rules. I also asked Xiongtai to correct me. Oh, in Xia Sanlin, I haven't asked Xiongtai Gao's name yet." Lin Wanrong hurriedly road.

"It turned out to be the third brother." Yan Sheng nodded and said, "This rule is quite simple. In the long pavilion, each group of ten people will randomly select poem titles, and in the tea kung fu, ten people will write the same poem. The top two in each group will automatically advance. After the poems are made, those who feel inferior can withdraw by themselves. If there is a dispute in the rest, three well-known judges will decide. For the sake of fairness, these three judges will raise their cards individually. Disputes, all three of them agree to be promoted. Those who are promoted can take a flower boat into the Qintan River. This is where the real talents and celebrities gather."

Auditions and judges? Lin Wanrong somewhat understood. This is equivalent to picking the top few players in each division and then going to the finals. I *, this is a typical draft style, it is really simple and practical. Ten people do the same question. The test is also fair, and there is no room for falsehood.

"The rest of the losers will have another chance to re-enter the ten-man group, but if they are eliminated again, they can only choose to leave." Yan Sheng replied again.

This is the resurrection match, Luo Ning is so talented, she can come up with such tricks. Lin Wanrong nodded: "This is fair. Oh, Brother Yan, have you passed the game?"

Yan Sheng smiled back and said, "To tell the third brother, I didn't play well in the last round. I ranked third among the ten players, and I lost the qualification for one promotion. Now I am waiting for the last chance."

The third of ten? This title is really sad. Lin Wanrong shook his head helplessly and said: "Brother Yan, don't be so concerned, I believe you will definitely advance to the next round."

Lin Wanrong and Na Yansheng chatted for a while,

He is not very clear about the competition system after the promotion. Rather, this hurdle is the most important.

Lin Wanrong laughed a few times in her heart, this Sai Shi will do a decent job, this girl Luo Ning. There is also some talent for hype.

Sure enough, as Lin Wanrong imagined, the items used in this pavilion, even the tables, chairs and benches, were without exception printed with the sign of food as an immortal. The talents who were eliminated also received souvenirs specially made by the conference, an oil-paper umbrella sponsored by Shiweixian.

With his own ability, it is estimated that it is also the material to be eliminated in the audition. Lin Wanrong doesn't care. Luo Ning only said that he should participate. But he didn't say that he wanted to advance, just do his best. He sat there and drank a few cups of tea leisurely, dozed off for a while, and saw that the talents in front of him were almost promoted and eliminated, so he took time to spare, and together with Yan Shenghui, he gathered ten people. Go in line.

One of the ten people sent one person to take the test questions from this group. The guy who took the questions was so nervous that he was sweating profusely. Lin Wanrong shook her head secretly, this kind of psychological quality, also came to participate in the draft?

He remembered something, and patted Yan Sheng in front of him and replied, "Brother Yan, I heard that the first talent in Jinling, Hou Yuebai, has also come to participate in the competition, is it true?"

Yan Sheng nodded back and said: "Of course it's true, Young Master Hou is infatuated with Miss Luo, how can you miss this opportunity, he is also a popular candidate to win this competition. But Young Master Hou and we are not in the same competition area, with his Ability, smooth promotion, that is not a problem."

I have long heard that this Hou Yuebai studied hard behind closed doors, and he didn't know what skills he had learned, but he dared to come to win the championship. He immediately heard that Yan Sheng shook his head and said, "But I'm not optimistic about this young master."

"Oh, why is this?" Lin Wanrong asked strangely.

"This poetry competition, because Miss Luo wants to recruit relatives, it can be said that the world's talents gather. Although Hou Yuebai is the number one talent in Jinling, the world is so big that there are many outstanding talents, not to mention the several provinces of Anhui and Zhejiang, even the talents from the capital. There are also too many to count, so he may not have a chance of winning. I heard that the young prince Zhao Kangning, the heir of Prince Cheng, has a soft spot for Miss Luo, and he also participated in this poetry competition. ." Yan Sheng replied.

This kid Zhao Kangning is also here. I will be very lively. He wants to greet me when he sees me, hehe. But this Lao Luo engaged in such a big battle, and gathered everyone's eyes here, what did he want to do? He glanced around, a thought suddenly flashed in his mind, his face changed suddenly, oh, this Lao Luo is about to do it.

With this thought, he was both excited and worried. Lao Luo is joking with the world, attracting everyone's attention with your daughter, and sharpening the knife in secret, mother, you really dare to do anything.

Yan Sheng looked back at the person who drew lots, and said nervously: "Third brother, I only have this one chance, and I don't know if I can win."

Lin Wanrong patted him on the shoulder and said, "Take it easy, Brother Yan, what should be yours is always yours, and no one can take it away. If it's not yours, you can't take it away."

While speaking, the dude who drew lots had already picked out the topic, and he took apart the paper ball tremblingly, his voice trembling and said, "Take the spring and summer seasons as, for, as the topic, do, do, do one or seven things. !"

I*, can you read it fluently? Lin Wanrong shook his head secretly, taking the spring and summer as the theme to do the seven tricks, this thing is difficult for him. However, it is not as unattainable as imagined.

As soon as the title came out, the ten talented people started to move quickly. There were seven steps in ancient times, although it was a bit exaggerated. But it is not so easy to write a poem in Zhancha Kungfu.

"I have, I have, I have—" Yan Sheng shouted back to the first one. The other geniuses were startled when they heard it, and they were sweating profusely.

"What are you arguing about?" A woman's voice came over. It sounded familiar. Lin Wanrong looked up and saw an old woman sitting on the judge's seat, looking over here with an angry face. day. how is she? Lin Wanrong almost jumped up.

"Yo, isn't this Mei Da Guoxue? Why, you haven't returned to the capital yet? How are you feeling recently? Have you been ploughing the fields again?" road. Damn, today is really not smooth, let alone being slaughtered, I met a judge. Still this perverted woman, my day, Miss Luo. It's not my fault.

Mei Yanqiu was already tired enough to be the judge at this station, and she hadn't noticed Lin San at all. Seeing this person suddenly appeared in front of her, she was so frightened that she stood up from her chair and said in shock, "You , you, what are you going to do?"

"What are you doing?" Lin Wanrong smiled and said, "Don't you understand this? You are here to participate in the poetry competition. You are a judge. You can take care of it later."

Hearing that he was here to participate in the poetry competition, Mei Yanqiu felt a little stronger and said proudly, "It depends on your ability."

"I don't know what Mei Da Guoxue is?" Lin Wanrong squinted, slowly stretched out a finger, and said with a smile: "My hand is called Yiyang Finger, and it is a family tradition. Mr. Mei also saw it with his own eyes that day. hey-hey--"

Mei Yanqiu's face was pale, and she sat down on the chair and did not dare to speak. Yan Sheng pulled back Lin Wanrong and said with admiration: "Third brother, you actually know Mr. Mei?"

"I know a little bit, she is very impressed with me." Lin Wanrong hahaha, looking at Mei Yanqiu playfully.

"Time's up—" another judge shouted loudly, and the rest of the talents burst into sweat. This group was all eliminated in the first round and waiting to be resurrected. They already had psychological pressure. When they heard the time, there were a few He was already pale and unsteady. Lin Wanrong was selected in this group, but it was deliberately taking advantage of it.

"Since you have finished the verse, read it and listen to it." The judge replied to Yan Sheng.

"Yes. Spring and summer are the topic. What the students do is: the water in the water is cool in the watermelon and the urn, the lotus root is stacked on the plate and the ice is green to chew the cold. Pearl, hurriedly recited.

"Good poetry, good poetry!" Yan Sheng had just finished reading, and before the judge had spoken, Lin Wanrong had already clapped and laughed.

Yan Shenghui gratefully glanced at the third brother whom he had only known for a while. He had self-awareness. This Seven Laws was just a smooth sentence with neat counterpoints.

The judges nodded, discussed for a while, and raised their placards at the same time: "It's okay. Advance!"

Yan Sheng shouted excitedly, hugged Lin Wanrong and said, "Third brother, I've advanced, I've advanced."

Lin Wanrong laughed and said, "Congratulations to Brother Yan."

A few judges glanced around and shouted: "Who else made it? Quick report."

The rest of the people had embarrassed expressions on their faces, and no one dared to speak. The judge shook his head again and again: "If there is no one else, we will—"

*, these guys must be spending their usual time studying to pick up girls, not even me. Lin Wanrong smiled and said: "Hold on, slow, since no one has done it. Xiaosheng is not talented, and his mouth is one. First, teachers please correct me. Cool back to Cuitan and the ice into the teeth, the teeth are clear and the spring is dew and the sun is cold.

"Good poetry, good poetry!" Yan Sheng returned Li and shouted loudly.

Lin Wanrong smiled slightly, and gestured at Mei Yanqiu: "Mei Da Guoxue, I'm called Yiyangzhi, a family tradition, it's very powerful—"

Mei Yanqiu's expression changed, and she raised the sign in her hand tremblingly...

On a huge flower boat in the Qintan River, Luo Ning held onto the railing, looked at the talented people on the boat next to him, and sighed softly: "Don't lean on the railing alone. return!"

She coughed twice, and hurriedly covered her mouth with her hand, her face flushed. Dong Qiaoqiao, who came out of the cabin, patted her on the back of the neck in a hurry and said, "Sister Ning. Why did you come out again? You have worked too hard these days. The doctor asked you to rest."

I am overworked, Luo Ning smiled bitterly, took her hand and said, "Qiaoqiao, Big Brother Lin promised me to come back today, you say, will he lie to me?"

Qiaoqiao patted her hand lightly and said, "Sister Ning, don't worry, since Big Brother promised you to come back. He will definitely come back. Big Brother never loses his trust in others."

Luo Ning coughed twice, looked at Qiaoqiao, and said with envy on her face: "Big Brother Lin is your husband. You naturally love him like this."

Qiaoqiao giggled and said: "Sister Ning, what do you want the big brother to come back for? He likes to wander around, and he is back now. I guess he is sitting in a long pavilion and drinking tea with others. Taking this Saishi will make it fun. Look. Sister Ning. You say, such a talented person can learn well. There are so many handsome people, which one do you like? It's better to let Lord Luo match for you. "

Luo Ning's face was sweet, her neck blushed, and she said softly: "Good sister, we will be sisters for a lifetime, okay?"

"Okay, of course." Qiaoqiao smiled sweetly: "However, you have to drink the medicine first, and then have a good rest. Otherwise, it's time for you to appear. Talents don't want to see a pitiful disease. Beautiful?"

Luo Ning looked at the silent river and sighed softly: "If he can't make it back today, I will have no interest in life!" Qiaoqiao was stunned for a while, and shouted: "Sister—" Luo Ning's eyes were filled with tears. , staring blankly into the distance, the frail body is lonely in the wind, making people feel full of pity...

"Why?" a judge exclaimed.

"It's not easy?" Lin Wanrong smiled and said: "According to the rules, the top two in each group will automatically advance. Among the ten of us, only Brother Yan and I have written a poem, so wouldn't we automatically advance? Teachers, this brand is still the same. Don't lift it up, Xiaosheng is very afraid that it will hit me and I have finally built up the self-confidence."

The two judges nodded and smiled: "You are very modest. Even if you are promoted, our brand will be held--

The two flopped at the same time: "Promise--" "Promise--"

In desperation, Mei Yanqiu gritted his teeth and raised his placard: "Promotion—"

Looking at the sign that the three judges held up unanimously, Yan Shenghui shouted excitedly: "Promote, third brother, you are also promoted."

Lin Wanrong laughed and said: "Brother Yan, don't get too excited, this is what was expected." Yan Sheng thought about it, but that's what happened, this judgment is useless at all, he clasped his fists and said: " The three brothers are unhurried and clever, and Yan admires them."

When the other people waited to see these two people pass the test so easily, they were naturally annoyed and wanted to die. They knew it earlier, don't care about any rude poetry, and they are not afraid of being ugly. They read it first and then said it.

This first pass is considered to have been passed. Lin Wanrong and Yan Shenghui boarded the show boat together and sailed straight to the Qintan River. The talents who passed the first level were divided into two flower boats, each with fifty or sixty people. These were the elites selected by the sea.

This flower boat is not as good as the painting boat that stayed in Xian'erdi last night, but it also looks extravagantly luxurious. It has everything from pen, ink, paper, inkstone, piano, chess, calligraphy and painting. A few famous people sat in Taichung, plucked the strings lightly, and sang a little tune.

"You sons—" A deacon-like figure stood up and said, "Today's poetry competition is a fun event for drinking and writing poetry. It is fate for us to gather together, so I invite you all to drink together. , thanks to the predestined relationship, please—"

"Please—" All the talented people drank, but the atmosphere was quite impressive.

The deacon continued: "Since you have passed the first level, you are all learned people. Today's second level is also very simple. I waited for more than 50 people. They were divided into five groups, and each group performed a separate exercise. The wine order. This wine order must be matched with one word and many words. If you don't match, please retreat to the side and drink, and the rest of the young masters continue. Persevere to the last one. Win."

Lin Wanrong probably understood it, and secretly felt fresh in his heart. This method is interesting. Ten people walk the wine order, from one word to several words.

He took the teacup, found a place closest to the cabin and sat down, looking out over the river. However, he saw two other painting boats, You Ge, and he didn't know which boat Luo Ning was on. There was nothing to do, but saw a boat rowing in the distance. There was a big black man and a middle-aged man with a white face and no need to stand on the boat. The two of them were getting together and whispering something.

Oh my god, I haven't seen a ghost, right? He rubbed his eyes carefully and let out a loud squeak. Throwing the teacup in his hand, he shouted loudly, "Big Brother Du, Big Brother Hu—"

The ship was so far away. At first, he couldn't hear his shouting. When he got close, he heard the shouting. The two of them on the boat looked over. When they saw Lin Wanrong's shadow, they were stunned for a moment, and then they were overjoyed. Hu Bugui, a man with a height of five feet high, with tears streaming down his face, said loudly: "General Lin. General Lin, you are still alive, motherfucker, you are still alive, wow wow wow—"

Lin Wanrong laughed, wiped his nose, and then jumped into the river. Yan Shenghui hurriedly grabbed him and said, "Third brother, what are you going to do?"

Lin Wanrong said: "I have a few life and death brothers over there. I want to go and see them, ***, I want to kill them."

Yan Sheng replied: "Since the brothers have met, you are still worried that it will be a while. It's winter and twelfth lunar month, even if you swim there and suffer from the wind and cold, it's not worth it. Wait until the end of this poetry competition, you Wouldn't it be nice to have a good drink with them again?"

That's right, what did I do in such a hurry? Lin Wanrong smiled embarrassedly and waved at the two. Hu Bugui and Du Xiuyuan also understood what he meant, and hurriedly stopped the boat that was swaying towards here, and waved at him vigorously. The two of them jumped on the boat, and their excitement was beyond words.

Lin Wanrong was so happy that when he was catching up with the drinking order, he couldn't wait to find a group of ten. There were some unfamiliar faces. He was not afraid. He raised his wine glass and drank two. , but my heart is still unbearably happy.

When everyone saw the madman who came out of nowhere, they even drank two cups without saying a word, and all of them secretly stuck out their tongues.

Anyway, we don't know anyone. It's better to drink than to fight wits. I haven't been afraid of anyone. Lin Wanrong's eyes were slightly red, and the excitement on his face could not be suppressed.

"Please!" The first person finished his drink and ordered.

"Please!" the second person answered, finishing a cup.

"Fenghua!" said the third person.

"Drink!" the fourth said.

,,,,,, when he arrived at Lin Wanrong, he had already drank two more cups, and the person in front of him said "Love in the Moon", he laughed and said loudly: "The dream is long. You drink, I also drink— —”

In the first round, ten people drank, but no one was out. Lin Wanrong raised his glass frequently, no matter who it was, the glass came to dry.

The second round will start from the beginning of the six characters.

"Drinking is easy to show the scenery-,

"The fragrance of wine is not to say that it is sad-"

,,,,,, The longer the sentence, the greater the difficulty. Before the round is over, four people will be eliminated. When Lin Wanrong came to him, a talented man in front chanted: "Wind

Hua Jue Dai wine and beauty lips".

Lin Wanrong said with a loud laugh: "General with a copper-skinned iron-boned strong horse." As soon as he tilted his neck, the spirits poured into his throat like water, and he didn't even change his face. When several talented people saw his arrogance, not a weak scholar, they were full of admiration in their hearts.

After the third round, no one will compete with him again. Lin Wanrong's eyes are reddish, and his body is shaking, but he can't stand up. He sings: "Brother

My brother, brother and brother, is proud of Yuyu, who will laugh at me for being drunk on the battlefield! Soldiers have great ambitions, a cup of wine to sacrifice Jiexiong, please drink another three hundred cups! "

Who can take this sentence? Everyone had been defeated long ago, and the faces looking at him were full of envy and admiration. Lin Wanrong was unhappy when he saw that no one would pick it up again. He held up two wine cups on the table and drank it all at once, but it seemed that he was still not satisfied. Liquid dripped down the corner of his mouth.

Everyone was stunned. These were all scholars who had read poetry and books. I had never seen such a wild character, but seeing him drinking and writing poetry was uninhibited, and there was a faint murderous aura.

Over there, Di Yan Shenghui had already retreated, and he was already seven or eight points of drunkenness. Seeing Lin Wanrong's appearance, he immediately exclaimed: "Third brother, it's good, life should be like yours, half awake and half drunk, freehand and happy, Here comes the wine-"

Holding the pot in one hand, he actually imitated Lin Wanrong's appearance, and he gulped a few times.
