After dealing with the A Workshop, Ouyang Shuo returned to his study and logged off on time.
In reality, it was the 15th day of the first lunar month. The Chinese New Year holiday was coming to an end, and the office workers had already started work on the 8th. From tomorrow onwards, school would resume on the 6th. During the entire winter holiday, Bing'er slept in and was served with delicious food and drinks. Her little face became chubbier and cuter.
Yesterday, Sun Xiaoyue called and said that she would be returning to Jiaozhou today to celebrate the Lantern Festival with them. Ouyang Shuo specially bought a lot of ingredients from the market and prepared to cook a feast tonight.
At three in the afternoon, Sun Xiaoyue arrived home on time with a lot of local specialties. They hadn't seen each other for a long time, so naturally, they exchanged greetings. Bing'er was very attached to Sun Xiaoyue. She presented the gifts she bought at the temple fair and introduced her new playmate, Snow, to Sun Xiaoyue.
Sun Xiaoyue was very surprised to see Snow. She knew this artificial intelligence pet and naturally knew it was very expensive. She turned around and glanced at Ouyang Shuo. She didn't expect this brother to be so generous. He bought such a luxurious gift without saying a word.
She couldn't see through Ouyang Shuo anymore. This man who didn't do proper work and only knew how to play games all day seemed to be wearing a mysterious veil that people couldn't see through.
When she returned home this time, her grandfather, an academician of the Chinese Academy of Sciences and a famous ship designer in the Federation, actually secretly mentioned the game "Earth on1e" to her. When she told her grandfather what she knew, he actually encouraged her to play this game like Ouyang Shuo did. When she returned to Jiaozhou this time, she had already ordered a game cabin online. It would be delivered tomorrow.
"Sister, why are you ignoring Bing'er?" Bing'er pouted and said pitifully.
Sun Xiaoyue was stunned. She actually spaced out and left Bing'er on the side. She quickly coaxed, "Ah, haha, I saw how cute Snow is and was so surprised that I couldn't speak."
"Right? Hehe, Bing'er thinks so too. You are as cute as Bing'er."
"Shameless. How can you praise yourself like that?"
"Sister ~ ~ ~" The little girl immediately jumped into Sun Xiaoyue's arms and twisted around.
Ouyang Shuo looked at them playing in the living room and couldn't help but think of Song Jia. Ever since the class reunion on the fourth day of the Chinese New Year, he had kept in touch with Song Jia and called her from time to time. As for Song Jia's feelings, he wasn't sure either. Classmate, friend, or confidante? What a muddled account.
After dinner, Sun Xiaoyue said with a smile, "Hey, I'll be playing Earth on1e starting tomorrow. Do you have any advice?"
Ouyang Shuo was startled. "How did you suddenly become enlightened? Weren't you quite resolute before? "
"Hmph, who knows? You guys are all so mysterious. It was my grandfather who suggested it."
"Your grandfather?"
"Yeah, he's a ship design expert in the Federation. I don't know where he got the news, but he didn't explain it to me. He just let me play the game. The money to buy the game cabin was funded by him," Sun Xiaoyue said casually.
Ouyang Shuo nodded. If that was the case, then the truth behind the game had gradually seeped into the medium-sized forces. Soon, the game would welcome a large batch of new players. "I told you before that this game is divided into Overlord mode and Adventure mode. Which one are you going to choose?"
Sun Xiaoyue didn't even think about it. "Of course, Adventure mode. I can't play Overlord mode."
"Adventure mode is also divided into combat professions and life professions. Do you want me to introduce it?" Ouyang Shuo didn't interfere with Sun Xiaoyue's choice.
"No need. I've already checked on the forum. I don't like fighting and killing, so I'm going to choose life professions. But even if it's life professions, there are too many types. I don't know which one to choose. "
Ouyang Shuo's heart moved. He said calmly, "If it's life professions, I think Architect is very suitable for you. It's also very compatible with your current major. You don't know, but this game is very realistic. There will be a lot of room for Architect in the later stages. You can use what you've learned. "
"Ah, why didn't I think of that? Okay, I'll listen to you and choose Architect. By the way, tell me your ID. I'll contact you after entering the game. "Sun Xiaoyue was very receptive.
Ouyang Shuo looked troubled. He knew she would ask this. "Ahem, I don't know how to explain it to you now. Anyway, I can't tell you my ID. If you trust me, set your birthplace in the Supreme Court. Anyway, one of us is an adventure player and the other is a Overlord player. We won't cross paths for the time being. When the time is right, I'll give you a convincing explanation. "
It wasn't that Ouyang Shuo didn't trust Sun Xiaoyue, but his identity was too sensitive. He had to be careful. If Sun Xiaoyue accidentally spilled the beans, it would be big trouble. Not only him, but even Bing'er would be implicated. This wasn't something he wanted to see.
Sun Xiaoyue pouted and said with dissatisfaction, "If you don't want to say it, then don't say it. Why are you being so mysterious?"
Ouyang Shuo was speechless. The atmosphere was a little awkward.
"By the way, you don't have to worry about Bing'er. I'm not a gamer like you. I don't log into the game so early every day," Sun Xiaoyue said with a smile before returning to her room.
Ouyang Shuo nodded and went back to his room to log into the game.
In the afternoon, all kinds of lanterns were hung all over the streets and alleys of Shanhai Town. The business-minded shops all launched promotions. They hung lanterns in front of their shops. As long as one answered the riddles correctly, there would be a reward.
After dinner, Qing 'er dragged Ouyang Shuo to admire the lanterns and guess the riddles.
Ouyang Shuo knew his own capabilities. Guessing the riddles was a difficult task. In order to not make a fool of himself, he brought along Fan Zhongyan, Tian Wenjing, Xu Shuda, Su Ze, and Zhou Haichen.
The best riddles were all concentrated in the commercial streets. With those simple riddles, Ouyang Shuo could guess one or two. For example, "Half of the Spring and Autumn, form a character." Half of the Spring and Autumn, form a character. "Half plowing and half reading, form a character." Half plowing and half reading, form a character.
The more difficult ones, such as "The wind leaves and returns, the geese slanting in front of the mountain peak, form a character of flowers and plants." Inside the wind, the remaining few are removed, and when it goes in again, it becomes a phoenix. In front of the mountain peak is a mountain. The geese slanting in front of the mountain peak forms a character of a person. Therefore, the answer to the riddle was "Phoenix Fairy."
"Big Brother, what's the answer to this riddle?" Qing 'er pointed at a riddle and asked.
Ouyang Shuo raised his head to take a look. "Split the rock and move the mountain, build the field and plant the willow, form a character of a flower." He knocked Qing 'er's head and said with a smile, "You can't even guess such a simple thing. Split the rock and move the mountain, leaving the stone. Build the field and plant the willow. Add the field and plant the willow, form a character of pomegranate. The answer to the riddle is pomegranate. "
Qing 'er scratched her head and said pitifully, "I just can't guess it!" She pointed at another riddle and said, "What about this one? The shadow of the moon on the branches, form a character. "
This was a bit difficult. Ouyang Shuo had an idea and said with a smile, "There are no rules. How can I guess it alone? Let's leave this riddle to Mr. Su Ze."
Su Ze said with a smile, "The top of the branch is wood. Add two dots to the top of the wood to form the character of rice. The waning moon means remove the part of the moon to form the character of a bow. The shadow means the bow becomes a pair. When combined, it becomes the character of a porridge."
When they passed by the grocery store, a riddle hung in front of the store attracted a large group of tourists. They talked about it, but no one could guess the answer. At this moment, even Fan Zhongyan, Tian Wenjing, and the others were interested.
Seeing Ouyang Shuo and his group, everyone consciously made way for them. The riddle was written: yellow silk, young woman, grandson, mortar, beat an idiom.
With Ouyang Shuo's level, he was completely confused. On the contrary, Fan Zhongyan and Xu Shuda looked at each other and smiled. Obviously, they had already guessed the answer.
"Why don't the two of you write the answer together and see if it's the same?" Ouyang Shuo joked.
The two of them nodded and took the paper and pen from the grocery store and quickly wrote down the answer. When they unfolded it, they saw that both sides had written "excellent words."
Xu Shuda said with a smile, "Let me explain. Yellow silk refers to the colored silk fabric. When combined, the character is perfect. The young woman is a young girl, so guess the character. The grandson is a daughter's son, so guess the character. The mortar is a tool used to hold and grind ginger, garlic, chives, and other seasonings. It receives spicy food every day, so it is a word. Therefore, the answer to the riddle is excellent. "
After the surrounding tourists heard the explanation, they suddenly understood and all applauded. The grocery store sent over the prize. It was an exquisite shadow gauze lantern made of various colored linen. It was painted with flowers, birds, insects, fish, mountains, rivers, and pavilions. It was also decorated with golden cloud patterns and tassels of various colors.
Fan and Xu naturally wouldn't carry a lantern on the street. In the end, it fell into Qing 'er's hands.
As they walked past the martial arts club, Tian Wenjing also guessed a riddle: two people raise their heads and cannot see the sky. Ten women cleverly plant half a mu of land. The Eight Princes ask me how much land? There are a thousand fields on top of the soil. This was a proverb.
Qing 'er wasn't good at guessing lantern riddles, but she was very proactive in asking questions. She said with a smile, "Mister Yangon, how do you solve this riddle?"
Tian Wenjing said with a smile, "two people raise their heads and cannot see the sky is the character for husband. Ten women cleverly plant half a mu of land is the character for wife. The Eight Princes ask me how much land is the character for righteousness. The last sentence, there are a thousand fields on top of the soil is the character for heavy. The righteousness of husband and wife is important. I hope every family in the world can be like this. "
The most difficult riddle was personally prepared by Xu Shuda. It was hung in the square in front of the Lord's mansion: a beautiful woman pretended to be drunk and asked for help, revealing the snow-white skin on her chest. Walking into the embroidered tent and not found, letting him roam Jianghu in wind and rain.
In the end, it was Fan Zhongyan who guessed it. He said with a smile, "The first sentence, a beautiful woman pretended to be drunk and asked for help, is a homonym for pretending to fall, and is a homonym for Jia Dao. The second sentence, exposing the snow-white skin on her chest, is a homonym for Li Bai. The third sentence, walking into the embroidered tent and not found, is a homonym for Luo Yin. The last four sentences, letting him roam Jianghu, is a homonym for Pan Lang. Li Bai, Jia Dao, Luo Yin, and Pan Lang were all famous poets of the Tang Dynasty. "
By the time they finished admiring the lanterns and guessing the lantern riddles, it was already eight o 'clock at night. Ouyang Shuo quickly logged off.
