< Explosive fourth chapter! >
Zhan Yu Shu looked at Jun Moxie suspiciously and suddenly laughed coldly. "Mo Jun Ye, you're not doing this on purpose, are you? You know that you can't answer this couplet, yet you insist on spouting nonsense, thinking that it's all a plot. What are you trying to do? Are you trying to smear our Zhan Family with dirty water? "
Jun Moxie snorted. "Smear? Of course not! Since you've raised your conditions, I naturally have to raise my conditions too! If you agree, then you agree. If you don't agree, then you don't agree. What's the point of changing the topic? Just say it frankly, don't make me look down on you young masters of the aristocratic families! "
The Zhan brothers exchanged a look. Zhan Yu Shu said softly, "Big Brother, what do you think?"
Zhan Qing Feng's eyes flickered. "This' simple 'condition is not a small matter. The other party's condition seems to have nothing to do with him, but it's actually targeting our weakness. Once we agree, if the other party really manages to match it, then the people we found today will immediately lose their future! And from now on, it will be difficult for our Zhan Family to do anything … This is equivalent to cutting off the source of talents. Because no one wants a master who might betray them at any time … "
"I'm thinking of this as well … but what if this is something that Mo Jun Ye can't match at all and came up with to make things difficult for us? If we let this go easily … the chances of us winning the next few rounds will be even slimmer. If we lose like this, all our previous plans will be for naught, and we still have to deal with those conditions of his … our reputation will also be ruined … "Zhan Yu Shu said worriedly.
The two brothers discussed with furrowed brows. Suddenly, Zhan Qing Feng gritted his teeth and said, "Yu Shu, we can't not agree to this. But if we agree, if the other party manages to match it, we can only … sacrifice the rook to save the king. Yu Shu, you're young and have a bright future ahead of you. You don't have to care about this. If he manages to match it, then I'll explain this matter. Then I'll say that this was all my idea, and it has nothing to do with you or the entire family … Sacrificing myself for the greater good, I think there should be no problem! "
"Big Brother, what are you saying? This matter was originally operated by me. How can I let you take the blame? " Zhan Yu Shu was after all still young and inexperienced. When he suddenly heard his elder brother speak so righteously, his heart instantly warmed up, and his blood surged. He blurted out, "If anyone wants to go out, it should be me who goes out and admits it! What does it have to do with you? "
"That's … good." Zhan Qing Feng only hesitated for a moment and immediately agreed. He sighed and said, "It's just that … I've wronged you, Brother. But I also believe in your judgment. That Mo Jun Ye's old tricks also means that he can't match it at all! He couldn't match it back then. Can he really do it in such a short time? "
Zhan Yu Shu had spoken rashly in a moment of rashness just now, and he was already feeling a little regretful in his heart. He didn't expect that his own elder brother did not even hesitate and immediately pushed all the blame onto him as if he couldn't wait!
Right now, Zhan Yu Shu felt as if he had fallen into a trap. It was as if his big brother had dug a hole for him to jump into. Then, he quickly distanced himself from it …
This … was this still the big brother that he had always looked up to and respected?
In an instant, Zhan Yu Shu felt as if he had suddenly eaten a dead rat. There was no need to mention that feeling of disgust in his heart …
"Mo Jun Ye, I agree to your conditions. I've also signed the Blood Oath Scroll." Zhan Qing Feng looked at Jun Moxie with a cold smile. "Now, isn't it time to show off your unparalleled literary talent?"
Jun Mo Xie jumped in fright and stammered, "F * ck, you guys are actually willing to agree to such harsh conditions? Aren't you afraid that your Zhan Family's reputation will be tarnished? "
Zhan Qing Feng laughed coldly. "If we can use this kind of price to gain the defeat of a great prodigy with the Free and Natural Physique, we feel that it's worth it! Mo Jun Ye, are you still trying to drag the time? Give us the second verse! "
"Eh …" Jun Mo Xie revealed an expression of being in a dilemma. He scratched his head and asked, "Eh … then … what is the first part of the couplet?"
Zhan Qing Feng and his brother were even more certain that this fellow was finished! They couldn't help but laugh gleefully.
"Heaven as the chessboard, stars as the chess pieces, who can play it?" Zhan Yu Shu instantly forgot about his earlier unhappiness and recited it out proudly. His cadence was extremely rhythmic …
"Heaven as the chessboard, stars as the chess pieces … Heaven as the chessboard, stars as the chess pieces … ai …" Jun Moxie furrowed his brows and paced back and forth. His brows furrowed tighter and tighter, and his face turned darker and darker …
Miao Xiao Miao's heart was in her throat. You must match it, ah … If you can't match it, you'll have failed, and all your previous achievements will have gone down the drain. The consequences will be unimaginable …
Everyone looked at this Free and Natural Physique prodigy with some pity in their eyes. Such a prodigy that was proficient in everything was something that might not even appear in ten thousand years. But today, he had actually lifted a rock and smashed it on his own feet … He had told a story, and it had actually led him into a dead end …
This kind of result really made one sigh with regret ….
Jun Moxie took two steps and stopped, looking up in deep thought. Then he shook his head and muttered, "No, no …" Then he shook his head again and continued pacing, deep in thought …
The smiles on Zhan Yu Shu and Zhan Qing Feng's faces grew wider and wider, almost bursting out in laughter. The way they looked at this Free and Natural Physique prodigy was like how a hunter would look at a prey that had fallen into a trap …
Suddenly …
"Got it!" Jun Mo Xie shouted loudly. Then, he pretended to wipe the cold sweat off his forehead and said, "I was so anxious that I almost went crazy. But, I finally thought of it. Actually, it's nothing much, I just need to think of the 'pass' key! Why didn't I think of it back then? What a pity! "
"Did you match it? What is the content of the second half of the couplet ah? Hurry up and say it. Mo Jun Ye, I'm telling you, I'm very clear about the importance of couplets. If you don't match it neatly, you'll still lose! "Zhan Qing Feng chuckled and added another sentence to increase the pressure in his heart.
"You're talking nonsense. Couplets are about fairness and stability. Heaven versus Earth, rain versus wind, land versus sky. Listen, this second half is …" Jun Moxie dragged out his voice and said word by word. "The earth as the pipa, the road as the strings, who dares to play?"
Boom!
Everyone in the hall burst into an uproar. Truly, truly!
Heaven as the chessboard, the stars as the chess pieces, who dares to play?
The earth as the pipa, the road as the strings, who dares to play?
Heaven versus Earth, the chessboard versus the pipa, the stars as the road, the chess pieces as the strings … who dares to play? Who dares to play? Every single word was matched perfectly, and it was flawless and wonderful to the point of perfection!
The first and second half were equally imposing, equally arrogant, equally … disdainful of all living things!
If a couplet like this could still be picked out and said to be unqualified … then there wouldn't be many neatly matched couplets left in this world …
In that moment, everyone looked at Mo Jun Ye with a complicated gaze. Just what kind of person was this? He was simply a monster ah, a miracle ah …
Miao Xiao Miao's eyes shone brightly as she looked at Mo Jun Ye. Her heart was filled with joy and excitement, and she couldn't speak for a moment. When he couldn't match it, she was worried and anxious. But now that he managed to match it, and the brilliance of the second half of the couplet shocked her to the core! He was incomparably shocked!
Did he really come up with this answer? I'm not dreaming, am I? How can he be so amazing? Why is he so amazing? Wah … I … I … I … Young Miss Miao's eyes were already showing signs of sparkling …
Jun Moxie wiped his sweat, looking as if he had a lingering fear in his heart. He said proudly, "This first half of the couplet has troubled me for many years, and I couldn't match it all this time. Who would have thought that it would be like what the two Young Masters Zhan said, under such a special occasion and extreme pressure today, I actually made a breakthrough! If that's the case, I really have to thank the two Young Masters Zhan … Hahaha, I'm really lucky. "
As soon as this sentence came out, everyone's face turned strange.
If one were to say that it was showing off after getting a bargain, it didn't seem like it, but why did it taste so weird …
In short, this feeling was inexplicable …
The two Zhan brothers' arrogance was long gone. Their faces were ashen as they looked at each other. In that moment, they felt like dying!
Just a moment ago, they were still gloating, thinking that this fellow had shot himself in the foot. But now, it seemed like who was the one who shot himself in the foot? The two brothers wanted to cry but no tears came out!
"May I ask, did I match it well? It should be considered stable, right? "Jun Moxie asked 'modestly'.
Zhan Qing Feng nodded stiffly. As for Zhan Yu Shu, he didn't even have the strength to nod anymore. He was in a daze …
"Then, shouldn't the two Young Masters Zhan tell us the truth that I asked earlier?" Jun Moxie smiled strangely and reminded them. "Please don't forget that the two of you swore an oath on your ancestors and descendants … Oaths are very strange things … Who knows when it might come true? Of course, if you don't care at all, you can also choose not to fulfill your promise! "
"We admit defeat!" Zhan Yu Shu's face turned red and white. He wanted to deny it several times, but this kind of oath … and it was made in front of so many people. How could he deny it? The moment he denied it, he would be disregarding his ancestors and descendants. This kind of crime … even the Zhan Family would not have a place for him to live …
"Lin Qing Yin's family is a musical family. Although they are masters of music, they do not engage in production. Their family business has declined, and they are slowly declining. Our Zhan Family has already bought over half of the music halls in the Misty Mansion. If they want to continue living, they must listen to our orders. This Young Master only made things difficult for their clansmen in the music halls, making it difficult for them to continue living, and everything will be fine … "
Zhan Yu Shu's words caused a huge uproar.
