Chapter 301 Riddles

"So that's why, I am the senior brother with the highest understanding. I can actually figure out the idea of ​​the living Buddha!" ​​Zen Master Huaisheng suddenly realized when he heard this. Looking at his senior brother's broad mind and compassionate expression, he couldn't help but sigh. In addition to admiring his senior brother more, he also respected the living Buddha more.

If this is true, I must handle all these things properly so that the living Buddha will not disappoint them!

...

After handing over these things to the two monks to deal with, Du Bai relaxed for the time being.

Although the two monks seem to be slightly weaker than themselves, it is because they have too many plug-ins on them. Not only are the Ghost King and righteousness, but they also have Buddha bones. The three complement each other. If they use their full strength, they will be more powerful.

These two people are still very strong when facing ordinary demons, otherwise the spider spirit would not have been forced to flee everywhere.

The only thing you need to care about is the mastermind behind the act of demons under the name of "Immortal". It is hard to say if there will be any trouble in it.

But let's leave all these for later.

Tonight, he hopes to accompany Su Wanmiao to enjoy this lantern festival.

...

It was soon the night.

The sky was already dark, but the streets outside were still bright like daytime. Even if they were still inside the Su Mansion, you could vaguely see the colorful light outside.

The lantern festival at night has begun.

"Sister, let's go out soon! If it's too late, you may not be able to catch up with the good seat!" Although Su Zhirou had already gone out once at noon, she was still looking forward to it. She just finished her meal and urged her coquettishly.

After all, this kind of lantern festival has a completely different style during the day and at night.

"Okay, okay." Su Wan said with a wonderful smile.

The daytime work has finally finished, and now I have some free time. I can enjoy the beautiful night view a little leisurely.

Of course, in fact, with the status of the Su family, there will be no position, just saying this.

The carriage had been waiting outside the door for a long time. Su Zhirou and Ying'er got on the carriage first. Just when Su Wanmiao was helping her maid, Du Bai suddenly felt aroused in her heart and said, "Madam, why not let's go together..."

"Let's go?" Su Wanmiao was stunned.

"Yes, although you don't have to walk by yourself, you don't have to walk by yourself, you don't have some fun, right? It's a rare opportunity, why not go together..." He nodded and smiled.

Su Wanmiao stared at him for a while, then smiled and nodded: "It's good..."

"Then Ying'er will accompany you together!" A little head emerged from the carriage. It was the little girl Ying'er happily raised her hand and suggested.

But immediately, Su Zhirou, behind her, reached out to cover her mouth and forced her back into the carriage. While blinking at Du Bai, she smiled and said, "No! She doesn't want to go! Sister, you two, go slowly! The coachman, let's set off!"

“Hmm…”

The sound of Ying'er struggling came from the carriage, but Su Zhirou forced her down. As the driver waved his whip, he drove the carriage slowly away, he could vaguely hear the sound of Su Zhirou pretending to be old-fashioned.

"Are you a fool? My sister and the two of you are so sweet, what are you going to do with you..."

Ying'er stammered a little aggrievedly.

Su Wanmiao obviously heard these words, and her snow-white face couldn't help but feel a little red. She subconsciously looked up at Du Bai beside her. Seeing that he was also looking at him with a smile, she looked away in panic.

"This girl Zhirou..."

"Let's go, she's right." Du Bai took the initiative to hold her hand, felt a little chill from the smooth skin, and even tightened her slightest.

"This is a rare world of two people..."

In fact, to be honest, this lantern club is naturally slightly worse than the magnificent scenes of modern times, but it has a warmth like a Jiangnan minor tune unique to this era.

The two of them walked side by side through the bustling market with hands holding hands, looking at the rows of lanterns on both sides, and sometimes looking at the children who were jumping by their side who were happily riding because they got candy. There were vague laughter about drinking and eating from the pavilions on both sides. The two of them looked at each other and felt a warmth from the heart.

After walking for a while, there happened to be a riddle guessing activity ahead, so the two of them also went to join in the fun.

It is said that those who can guess the riddles correctly can get a small lantern, which seems interesting. Unlike those riddles written on street lanterns, this was done by the merchants themselves, perhaps to attract some guests. Using riddles as a guide makes them less odor and more elegant.

However, this difficulty is relatively easy. Learned people like Du Bai may be simpler, and the ordinary people dressed in ordinary clothes may not recognize many of them. They came here to watch the fun.

Just as Du Bai and the others walked over, they saw two scholars standing in front of the stall, as if they were frowning and thinking hard. It seemed that the lantern was not that easy to pick up.

"Would this young master come and try it? The lanterns here are all good." The stall owner smiled, "It's okay if you can't guess the riddles. These lanterns can also be bought with money..."

Du Bai's eyes swept over the row of lanterns at his hand, and they were all very cute, which should be quite pleased with children or girls. In fact, he was also attracted by these at the beginning. It seems that the stall owner is really a bit business-minded.

At this moment, the two scholars next to him seemed to be unable to guess and gave up, so they simply took some money to buy two lanterns, probably to go back and give them away. Then they didn't rush to leave. Obviously, they saw Du Bai and the others, and had some thoughts of watching the fun.

The riddles released by this stall owner are a bit difficult, so he is naturally looking forward to seeing the scene of the latecomers failing like them, so that his mind can be more balanced.

Du Bai didn't care about them, but pointed to a very exquisite little lantern next to him and said, "I want this lantern, please give me some questions!"

"Haha, the young master is quite confident. OK, please read the question." The stall owner looked like he was not surprised. After all, many people who spoke big talk were defeated by him tonight.

Du Bai took the note and glanced briefly. There were three riddles on it. Only when all three were answered correctly could he get the lantern.

Question 1: "Shrimps play in the water on the mountain streams on all sides".

Question 2: "Looking at the south, the lonely star, the moon rises."

Question 3: "Two shapes are one, four branches and eight heads, four eight hundred and eight, flying springs are flowing upwards."

Su Wanmiao also glanced at it and frowned. After thinking for a while, she had no result: "This question is a bit difficult..."

She couldn't guess any of them. Will the guild feel embarrassed? If he really likes this lantern, it would be better to buy it first...

The stall owner looked leisurely, and obviously guessed the difficulties of the two. After all, just one riddle can be used to make many people, let alone these three questions, connected!

But just as Su Wanmiao was hesitating and trying to speak, she noticed that Du Bai was still calm and did not seem to be in a dilemma, but subconsciously did not interrupt. She decided to believe Du Bai's choice.

Soon, Du Bai raised his pen confidently, wrote the answer to the mystery on the paper with just a few strokes, and handed it back to the stall owner who was a little surprised.

"Please take a look, I wonder if I answered correctly?"

"oh?"

The stall owner took the paper in surprise, and when he looked down, his eyes slowly widened, as if he looked unexpectedly.
Chapter completed!
