Xu Yilong and the nine little guys did not participate. They stayed by the lake, looking at the mountain, the water, and the cliff hanging upside down.
"Are we not waiting for the sunset?" Xu Yilong's body trembled as she asked Xiaoyuan. He was excited. He had been suppressed all the way and never had the chance to show off his ability. He was always looking at the nine little guys' performance.
At this moment, he felt that he finally got a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. He would defeat Xiaoyuan first and then defeat them one by one.
Xiaoyuan looked up at the sun and quickly closed his eyes, saying, "We're not waiting. Maybe we'll be busy with other things later. Right now, this mountain, this water, this warm sun, and the slowly floating clouds. Of course, if you pick up a fish and write about it, it's fine too. Last question, is it writing modern poetry?"
"What modern poetry?" Xu Yilong did not understand.
"Brother and sister will write it occasionally. It's a modern poetry written strictly according to the standard requirements. It's divided into five or seven words. The standard poems and quatrains are different according to the beginning and end of the cycle. For example …"
"No need, we're not writing this. The rules are too strict and affect our performance. Writing poetry is not about rules, it's about expressing one's inner feelings, understand?" Xu Yilong was confused and quickly interrupted Xiaoyuan, saying with a guilty conscience.
Xiaoyuan followed the good advice, "Okay, not following the rules. Writing poetry can express one's feelings. Isn't it the same if it's written in vernacular? It's like a newspaper story. "
"Yes, it's the same. But don't you think that poetry can better reflect one's literary level? Beauty, knowledge, "Xu Yilong advised.
"Isn't modern poetry more beautiful? Is it more knowledgeable? "Xiao Yuan continued.
"Let's not think about this today, okay? Let's talk about poetry. I'll go first. Do you see that cliff? " Xu Yilong also knew that she could not win against Xiaoyuan on the same topic because she used double standards, so she quickly changed the topic.
Xiaoyuan looked in the direction Xu Yilong pointed and nodded, "I see it. There's a depression below."
"Very good, the poem is out. The first sentence, I see the cliff is depressed. The second sentence, why …"
"We're leaving." Xiao Bei's voice suddenly sounded. She stared at Xu Yilong unhappily, "Are you playing with us? I can follow up with your question, why is there a groove? When I turn my head to look at the other side, there is also a groove there. "
"Haha, Xiao Bei, you're so cute. I'm just kidding. I'm not done yet. Wait, let's start. The water surface is boundless, reflecting the cliff. The mountains and ridges are hard to stop the rushing current, the movement and stillness are in harmony with the quiet and distant. "
After Xu Yilong finished speaking, she looked at the nine little guys and waited. After waiting for a while, seeing that they did not respond, she asked, "How is it?"
"To be honest, I don't know what it means." Xiao Bei pouted and said to Xu Yilong.
"Yes, you are still young and can't understand so deeply. It's my fault." Xu Yilong was helpless and had to apologize to the nine children.
"Actually, it's not your fault. Let Lil 'Yuan do it. Lil' Yuan, tell us a jingle. It has to be like a nursery rhyme." Lil 'Bei revealed a big smile to Xu Yilong and instructed Lil' Yuan.
Xiao Yuan nodded and looked at the surrounding scenery. She raised her hand and pointed. "The birds on the trees are chirping, and the water flowing under the trees is splashing. The fish and shrimps swam and swam until they reached the end of the cliff. There were vines halfway up the mountain, and green grass was sprouting. Can those wild vegetables be eaten? We have to dig them up. "
"Hehe, it's really nice. Lil 'Yuan, you're not bad. Continue to work hard and you'll be very powerful in the future." After listening to the nursery rhyme made by Xiao Yuan, Xu Yilong felt that it was very difficult for such a big child to be able to write the rhyme. She quickly praised him and looked like a teacher. Her smile was so reserved and conceited.
Xiao Yuan smiled shyly, then pointed to the tree and said, "The birds on the trees are chirping, and they complain about the world when they reach the top of the mountain. Chun Xuan's hair is frosty, and she's young. She's like a destroyed king, and she's killed in battle. She's like a gentleman, and she's worshiping the temple. My song, Ru Feng, always praises, and she's like a poem. "
Xu Yilong was stunned when she heard it. She just felt that it was not easy for a child to write the rhyme, but in the blink of an eye, he started to use the rhyme. Moreover, it ran through the Book of Songs and praised the elegance. It was about a woman in a family who supported the family business on her own. Every time she reached the top of the mountain, she would complain about the long journey. There were elders and children in the family, and her husband was ordered to kill in the flames of war. This was fighting together with the king in order to open up new territory. Whether it was her song or your wind, they were praises. Was it a rhyme? This was actually called life.
Using 'Rolling Ears', 'Ru Fen', 'Zhanbei Luo Yi', 'Wu Yi', 'Wu', and 'Guan Zi'.
Was this kind of ability something a child could have? Now that they were going to take the Imperial Examination and Advancement Examination, it was really easy to solve the questions. It was too demoralizing.
"This rhyme is better than the previous one. Brother Yilong, don't you think so? Xiaoyuan, continue. I like to listen to rhymes the most. I don't understand any poems. "Xiaobei's voice was still so sweet, and her smile was still bright.
Xu Yilong looked at the rippling lake in front of her that was blown by the wind. She really wanted to jump in and never come up again. It was so embarrassing.
She even wanted to show off in front of Xiaoyuan. She finally came up with four lines, but Xiaoyuan used the rhyme right away. This was an impromptu poem. No one gave you time to think about it one by one. It tested not only your quick wit but also your foundation.
How was it possible?
Xu Yilong felt that she was a failure, especially when she heard what Xiaobei said. Why was the usually cute smile so awkward at this moment?
"Yes, yes, I … I don't understand poems, let alone compose them." The only thing Xu Yilong could do was to agree with Xiaobei and return a smile, but no matter how she smiled, it was unnatural.
Xiaoyuan's expression did not change much. Just like before, she pointed at the big tree again, "The birds on the tree chirped. Looking up, the warm sun set in the east. Wild vegetables grow in the remote jungle, and new melons grow in the fertile soil of the hometown. Tianxing Ming crossed a thousand rivers, and dreamt of the Hundred Gorge last night. Singing nursery rhymes softly, sleeping early, and smiling like a flower in auspicious times. "
"I miss home too. Auspicious times and auspicious times can call people, right? No, we can't come here for nothing. We have to find more things that can't be seen in the capital and make them into specimens to bring back for our brothers and sisters to see. Are there any gems here? I don't know if they broke the pearls that I dropped last time. "
When Xiao Bei heard Xiao Yuan's words, her eyes turned red. She sniffled and pulled Xiao Yuan along as she ran towards the place where Simo Domo lived. She felt that it was best to ask the local leader first. If there were any, they could use other seasonings to exchange for them. After all, the locals were stupid and could not eat gems. If they gave them something real, they would definitely be very happy.
The nine little guys ran to find Simo Domo and made a fair exchange with him. Xu Yilong stood by the lake for a long time without moving. She understood what Xiaoyuan meant. She started with the same scenery and used three ways to tell him what it meant to go from simple to complex, and from complex to simple.
There was no need for rhyme in the depths of love. Every word came from the heart. Using the simplest words to express the deepest meaning, this was the realm.
As for herself, she was still in the process of going from simple to complex. She had not entered the stage of complexity. One day, she would use allusion and deliberately carve words and sentences to see Xiaoyuan's footsteps. Perhaps Xiaoyuan was still a little far from the truth, but he didn't need to carve anything. He said what he thought. It seemed like a habit, but it was actually accumulated to a certain extent.
Xu Yilong once again felt the terror of the nine children of the Zhang Family and Wang Family. It seemed that her grandfather was right to send her over. Otherwise, she would still be flattering each other with the other officials of the same generation. She would be proud and complacent when she did something.
Looking at the nine little guys, they did a lot of things. When they met many tribes, they could immediately take the children to play and take good care of them.
When she saw them every day, she felt that they were very happy. Of course, when she saw them happy, she was also happy. But thinking about it carefully, she realized that the places where they played every day were places where they were needed. When someone was sick or the work was not easy to do, they would immediately go over and help as if they were playing and chatting with the others.
In other words, they took on the task of adjusting the atmosphere in the team. They had been infecting everyone with their happiness and innocence. They would also fall down and accidentally get scratched. Looking at them pouting and saying that it didn't hurt, the adults who were also injured seemed to feel that they didn't hurt, even if their injuries were more serious than the children.
"They can actually play a role in stabilizing the hearts of the troops and improving morale. They have never been a burden to the team. They never made others worry. Why did I only find out?"
Xu Yilong said to himself in the lake. Then he was very annoyed. He thought that he was the only one who was useless. He couldn't do physical work, he didn't know how to cook, he couldn't bring happiness to others, and he didn't have the affinity that Xiaobei and the others had with the tribe's children.
"Damn, I'm actually a good-for-nothing. No, I have to follow and learn." Xu Yilong strengthened his confidence. He was full of yearning for the outside world. He came to a conclusion. Once he followed the team to the end of this journey, he would learn a thousandth of the strengths of everyone in the team. When he went back and met the other officials of the same generation, those people would not be a threat to him. Just like Xiao Yuan's indifferent look when he was pulled away by Xiaobei after he finished his last poem. Xiaobei didn't take him seriously at all. It was really depressing.
"Chief Seymour Domo, where are you? Seymour Domo! " Xiaobei and the others shouted. They were brought to the hall where Seymour Domo had invited Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan.
"Chief Seymour Domo, I see you again. Hello, what's that, hmm! I heard that you have a white jade beauty … "When Xiaobei saw him, he first spoke with his hands behind his back and his feet moved.
