Chapter 1145 Master Style
After the third question, No. 5 Liu? and No. 3 delivery boy both scored 3 points, temporarily leading the other three. The host then asked No. 1 and No. 2 the fourth question, "What is the next sentence of 'Yan Yan Yu Fei'?", "What is the previous sentence of 'The moon is out and bright'?"......
Liu found that her opponents were better at asking questions directly about the content of the article. Perhaps they had been reciting the Book of Songs and Chuci every minute these two days, and had no time to understand and expand the meaning. This is the most challenging part of the competition. To understand and grasp the article thoroughly, you need to accumulate knowledge in daily life, not just cram at the last minute.
No. 4 had the worst accumulation and the worst luck. The questions that came his way were all "understanding-type" questions. He couldn't answer two questions in a row, and he gave the fifth question incorrectly.
These were equivalent to his own three questions, all of which were answered by Liu?.
"Which idiom is not from the Book of Songs? 1. Firmly pledged; 2. A day like autumn; 3. Tossing and turning; 4. Killing two birds with one stone." The host said to Liu?, "Number 4 answered 'A day like autumn', which has helped you eliminate a wrong answer."
Liu smiled at the host's teasing and said slowly, "He doesn't need to help me. I also know the answer is 'kill two birds with one stone'."
"Congratulations, you got it right,"
The host smiled and nodded. As soon as he finished speaking, the audience burst into applause. Liu? performed so well. Not only did she look like a beautiful lady in a Hanfu costume, but her smiles and frowns when answering questions all showed the demeanor of a lady from a noble family. She didn't seem to be nervous about the competition at all. Among all the contestants of this year's "Poetry and Songs Meeting", only Xiong Jie and Wang Daoxin were as calm and composed as she was.
Netizens then started to vote, "Do you think Liu? can defeat Wang Daoxin and become the last champion?"
...
...
The ratio of "think" and "don't think" was almost evenly split, and the opponents also had their reasons. Liu? was lucky, numbered 5, and the last three questions in this session were handed to her by number 4 or even number 1 or 2, so she had at least 3 minutes more time to think than others. From a metaphysical perspective, they also felt that Liu? would not win. Looking at the history of "Poetry and Songs Club" since its inception, there have been very few female champions, and the final winners of each season are men.
"Now, can you please explain this question to us, Professor Su?" the host looked at Su Yi and asked with a hint of tentativeness. There was no information on the table in front of Su Yi. Like Liu Yi, he only knew the theme but not the specific questions. The program team initially sent all the questions and answers to him and asked him to prepare in advance. After all, the host would randomly ask him to comment on the content, so the old professor could be prepared.
Su Yi refused without hesitation.
His apprentice was participating in the competition, and he had the answers. If Liu won, wouldn't he be accused of leaking the questions to her? He would never do such a controversial thing.
The program producers were worried that Su Yi would encounter questions that he didn't understand and make a fool of himself. Their program would be affected, and wouldn't Su Yi be even more embarrassed?
Su Yi responded to them at the time, “What a joke! If I can’t even answer the questions set by those three crappy experts, I don’t need to survive in this world.” These were Su Yi’s exact words, which left the producer speechless.
They didn't dare to disobey Su Yi, but they were worried. The host, in particular, was under the greatest pressure. He didn't know when to ask Su Yi to take action. If Su Yi really couldn't do it, wouldn't it be his fault?
Therefore, the host asked three experts to comment on the first few questions. As the first session was about to end, the famous Su Yi sat there like a decoration, being completely ignored. This was also disrespectful to the elderly. Su Yi's students protested online!
The host had no choice but to ask Su Yi for a comment.
Su Yi looked at him with a smile. He could see the host's dilemma. He thought the young man was quite cute. "I won't explain the meaning of 'killing two birds with one stone'. As everyone knows, it has nothing to do with the Book of Songs. It comes from the Book of Sui. Biography of Changsun Sheng. The Book of Sui is one of the Twenty-Four Histories. Changsun Sheng was a man of the Sui Dynasty and was very good at riding and shooting. The original sentence of 'killing two birds with one stone' is 'one shot, two arrows'..."
