Chapter 255 One-on-one against Chenhua University
Peking University and Chenhua University, as the only two top universities in the world in China, can be said to have always been compared by the people. Everyone always hopes that the two can decide which one is better.

The two schools are also dissatisfied with each other, from students to leaders, much like the two prestigious universities in the UK, Oxford and Cambridge, look down upon each other.

However, Oxford University is in Oxford, England, and Cambridge University is in Cambridge Town. It is estimated that the two schools can only fight on the Internet.But Jingda Chenhua is facing the door!
Jingda and Chenhua are only separated by a street, and the two schools look at each other, as if this street is filled with the smell of literature, history, philosophy and science and engineering.

There are often seemingly friendly academic exchanges between the two school radio stations, but they are actually taking the opportunity to fight for the winner and show the students the style of their school.

Among them, couplet exchange is one of the activities often held by the two schools.

Although Peking University literature is the dominant position in the country, and Peking University is a paradise for liberal arts students, but in the past two years, during the couplet exchanges between the two schools on the radio, Peking University has completely failed, because Chenhua University has two or three specialists. A geek who is obsessed with researching couplets.

Beijing University has always vowed to avenge its shame. This time, the day of the start of school has arrived, and whether it can turn around depends on today.

Li Fan followed behind Lu Yaya, chatting while walking, they hadn't arrived at the school radio and TV station yet, only heard the school radio suddenly sounded.

"Welcome everyone to listen to FM93.9MHz, the radio station of Capital University. Today, we are bringing you the traditional program "Couple Friends". I am the anchor Xiaoya."

"I'm the anchor Cui Hao. Next, let's connect to Chenhua University Radio Station. Everyone applauds."

There was a round of applause over the radio.

Li Fan looked up at the loudspeaker hanging under the street lamp, and asked, "Sister Yaya, does anyone listen to or watch the school radio and television?"

"There are also sub-programs, but most of the programs are ignored by the students."

The campus of Peking University is full of students queuing up for military training. The sound of this kind of campus broadcast is obviously much more pleasant than the serious instructions of the instructors. While listening to the instructions of the instructors, everyone pricked up their ears and listened quietly. Take a look at the atmosphere of Beijing University.

When Li Fan and Lu Yaya walked into the live broadcast room, the couplet exchange between the two schools had already started.

Because it was a live broadcast, when Lu Yaya walked into the live broadcast room softly, everyone just smiled and nodded, without making a sound.

There are two hosts in front of the live broadcast, Xiaoya and Cui Hao.At the back is a row of chairs, with more than 10 students sitting. They are all masters of antithetical couplets in various departments, including undergraduate students, as well as master and doctoral students. The school's Shanglian.

At this time, the first link between the two schools is going on: [Longfeng Chengxiang].The so-called [Longfeng Chengxiang], to put it bluntly, means that you come and go, you post a couplet and I answer, and then I post a couplet and you answer, alternating with each other.

At this time, the voice of the enemy school sounded on the live broadcast station: "Our first couplet is [Sir, the green leaves grow flowers, the flowers bloom and the leaves fall], please correct the sentence!"

Xiaoya said: "Okay, let's discuss it with our think tank first, and then Cui Hao will explain the beauty of this Shanglian."

Cui Haodao: "Everyone, this is an organ couplet, a unique kind of interesting and informative couplet among ancient couplets... What are your school's requirements?"

The voice of the hostess of Chenhua University came out: "First of all, the couplets are smooth and natural, and the mechanism is completely broken. Secondly, flat water rhymes and new rhymes are acceptable, but they cannot be mixed in the same couplet..."

The two hosts communicated with Chenhua University's live broadcast room through radio waves, and the students behind them had already quickly written down their own couplets in their notebooks, and then started discussing them quietly.

Li Fan stuck in the crowd, listening to everyone's words.

"What about me, [the law rules the present and the people rule the past, and the past and present]!"

"Look at mine, [Spring Examination of Poetry and Autumn Examination of Martial Arts, Wu Yan Wenxiu]"

……

While everyone was talking in low voices, a long-haired senior slapped the notebook in his hand on the table, and then the think tank stopped talking.

There is a second couplet in the book: [Old love green silk and new love lotus root, lotus root is broken].

"It's still the president's second line!"

"President Niu!"

……

This is the president of Beijing University Poetry Club, Yu Guanqiu.

Yu Guanqiu raised an eyebrow at Li Fan, "Primary school boy, is it alright?"

"Success!" Li Fan nodded with a smile, and said in his heart: I will be my junior, and I have to add the word "small".

Someone handed this couplet to the host, and Xiaoya read it: "Please listen carefully, my friends, the couplet we gave is: [Old love with green silk and new love with lotus root, the root is broken]!"

Upper couplet: Mister, the leaves grow after the green leaves, and the flowers bloom and the leaves fall.

The second line: Old love green silk and new love lotus root, the lotus root is broken.

That's right, the enemy school also approved it.

Cui Hao took a piece of paper from the think tank, glanced at it, and said, "Your school, our Shanglian is [Cultivating the sky and planting the day with Hengyun, the farmhouse has the depths of the dream mountain]!"

A voice came from the airwaves: "[Driving cranes and flying mountains and wearing plains, when the mountains are smokeless and the mountains are far away]!"

……

The enemy school came out with the first couplet: "【The sea is flowing, Wushan Township, who controls the Jiuzhi situation?】"

Yu Guanqiu gave the second couplet: "[Great changes in Sangtian, the people turn around, Qianqiu Career Party arranges!]"

……

The enemy school published another couplet: [Mo Yu has a long way to go, the article is an eternal story]!
This first couplet is a bit interesting. Mo Yu and Lu Yuan are both great writers in this time and space, and they are linked together in one sentence. The whole first couplet has a certain meaning of urging and teaching.

Someone joked in a low voice: "Caoliu will be broadcast soon, and netizens will be worried!"

puff!
The crowd burst into laughter.

Li Fan quietly walked out of the live broadcast room and went straight to the toilet. The difficulty coefficient of the questions presented by both parties is not high at present. Several seniors can handle it, and he has no use for himself.

The beginning of the show is of course an appetizer, just to adjust everyone's state and warm up.There were 10 rounds between the two schools. The first session [Dragon and Phoenix Showing Prosperity] ended and the two sides drew.

But when it comes to the next step, the difficulty suddenly increases.This link is called [Sanyang Kaitai].It means that if one school has three upper lines in a row, the other school will be successful only if all the second lines meet the requirements, even if one of the lower lines does not meet the requirements.

The enemy school made three consecutive uplinks first, and their first uplink was: 【垓】!
This is a one-character couplet, a simple word "Gai", which directly confused the think tanks of Beijing University.

The left half of the word "Gai" is "earth", one of the five elements, and the right half is "hai" in the twelve earthly branches. Everyone has used their brains to think about the appropriate couplet.

"What do you think of the word 'Kun'?"

"Almost, let Xiaoya try."

Xiaoya glanced at the notebook handed over, and said to the radio microphone: "You school, our classmates have already come up with the second couplet, 'kun', 'kun' of 'Qiankun'!"

The hostess of the enemy school: "Kun? It's okay in form, but it has no artistic conception at all, and there are big flaws!"

Cui Hao glanced at other couplets again, and said, "What about the 'willow'? The 'willow' of the 'willow tree'!"

"have flaws!"

……

Yu Guanqiu came up with a second couplet, and he showed it to Xiaoya, who also thought it was good, so she said to Mike, "What about '汜'? 'Gai' is a place name, '汜' is a water name, left The half part belongs to the five elements, and the right half belongs to the twelve earthly branches."

Enemy school: "Barely pass, but there are flaws!"

This enemy school's flawed host, who is "flawed" one at a time, is also quite irritating.

……

The on-campus broadcast was broadcast throughout the entire campus of Peking University. Most of the students who heard the broadcast were thinking, what is the right next couplet?

Especially the first-year military training freshmen who are full of campus, they are frowning and thinking hard while doing military training, but they are also puzzled.

Gu Yating, who was wearing military training attire, was standing in the queue and was contemplating. She came up with two or three ideas, but as the host said, they were flawed and difficult. This couplet is really too difficult!

Just when she struggled to find an answer, the instructor suddenly shouted: "Gu Yating, what are you thinking? Are you still thinking about falling in love? Let's go together, keep up!"

Everyone laughed.

Gu Yating blushed a lot, she quickly stepped up and followed behind everyone.

……

In the live broadcast room, everyone was numb.

This one-character couplet looks simple, but it is actually very difficult. The main thing is the artistic conception, and the difficulty lies in the artistic conception!
How can one word express the artistic conception?In other words, how do the two characters in the upper and lower couplets express the artistic conception?The fewer words, the harder it is.

Literature pays attention to a concise beauty, for example, poetry and songs are all concise beauty.But with one or two words, the difficulty is too great.

There is a poem by Bei Dao that is a masterpiece in this regard. That poem is called "Life", and there is only one word in the whole poem: net.The philosophy and artistic conception in this word are too full, summarizing real life to the fullest.

At this time, the think tanks of Beijing University are collectively in trouble, what should they do?

"It's really difficult. It's easy to conform to the regulations in form, but it's too difficult to express the artistic conception."

"Actually, the word '汜' used by the president is good, very good."

"Brother Qiu, think of another one."

……

Yu Guanqiu frowned and thought hard: "Let me think about it."

The voice of the enemy school came again: "Well, this one is indeed too difficult, forget it, let's make the next couplet."

The arrogance of Peking University students has come up, what do you mean forget it?Who has Peking University been afraid of in literature?
"Friends, please wait a moment!"

Xiaoya pulled down the fader responsible for the volume of the live broadcast, and then said to the people behind her: "Brothers and sisters, give me some strength! Don't be defeated by Chenhua again, will you succeed? The best in Huaguo The liberal arts college is our Peking University, not their Chenhua University!"

Everyone scratched their heads, lowered their heads and thought hard.

Xiaoya said again: "Hey, where's Li Fan?"

"It's time to go to the bathroom, I'll go out and give him a call." Lu Yaya said and walked out of the live broadcast room.

Someone said:
"Li Fan may not be able to do it either, it's too difficult! How can I give it an artistic conception on a word?"

"Yes, Li Fan is best at mass production. From the video that went out there, I discovered that Li Fan is focusing on quantity, not precision!"

"It makes sense! Li Fan's magic can be described in two words: 'fast' and 'multiple'! Everything is both fast and numerous!"

Xiaoya quit, "How do you explain the beauty of 'ink' to 'quan' to you?"

Several seniors were choked speechless.

"That's right, Li Fan, we can't treat him like an ordinary person, let's see."

"Well, let's talk."

"Hush!" Xiaoya raised her finger to hiss, then turned up the volume, and said to the enemy school: "Friend school, please wait a moment!"

Chen Hua wasn't too polite: "There's a countdown for you guys, the last 3 minutes!"

Everyone was thinking hard, and soon 3 minutes would be up. The enemy school: "It's still 15 seconds away, 14 seconds..."

Just when everyone was impatient, an army green figure was pulled into the live broadcast room, and everyone cast their eyes on him.

Li Fan looked at a group of sad-faced seniors, and asked curiously, "What is the Shanglian?"

Everyone said in unison: "Gai!"

Li Fan turned his head and blurted out: "Wine!"

liqueur?
Everyone was puzzled, Xiaoya had no choice but to repeat, saying: "Friend school, our second line is 'wine'."

Enemy school: "The structure is right, but what about the artistic conception?"

Hearing the word artistic conception, everyone looked at Li Fan again, waiting for his explanation.

Li Fan said to Xiaoya: "Gai, also refers to the battlefield, there is a poem that says: Lord Mo Xiao lying drunk on the battlefield, how many people have fought in ancient times—"

"Li Fan, wait a minute, sit over and say!"

As soon as the name "Li Fan" was called out, the hostess of the enemy school shouted: "Who? Li Fan? Li Fan is here? Isn't he still in love?"

At this time, Chenhua University's broadcasting station, the broadcasting room was filled with astonishment.

"I'm going, Li Fan is here? Is that pervert with 18 lower lines in one breath?"

"Ace is out!"

"That kid is too diao, but when did you return to Beijing University?"

The hostess pulled down the volume fader, raised her finger and said, "Shhh, it's a live broadcast! Your voices are all included."

After everyone shut up, the hostess turned up the volume and said excitedly, "Then Li Fan, please explain."

Li Fan sat in front of the live broadcast stage, put on the earphones, and explained: "Gai, I'm not talking about the structure of 'wine'. I'll just talk about its meaning.

'Gai' has a meaning of the battlefield. There is a poem that says: Jun Moxiao, who is drunk on the battlefield, how many people have fought in ancient times.So, I got the word 'wine' right, how can one get drunk without wine?What's more, leading troops to gallop in the barren land, using wine to relieve the nostalgia, using wine to show courage, and wine to comfort lovesickness, and the word "Gai" also means "a barren and remote place", and "Gai" means a place far away from the world. No wine.

Moreover, the ancient land of 'Gai', today's Linglong County, is rich in the famous wine 'Zui Linglong', so the upper line of your school is 'Gai', and the second line of mine is 'wine'! "

Whoa!
There was applause in the live broadcast room!
"Wonderful!"

"This artistic conception is wonderful!"

"Master! I'm convinced!"

……

On the campus of Peking University.

The freshmen in the military training suddenly realized what they said, and their spirits were lifted. The students of our Beijing University are of high standard!

Gu Yating's eyes lit up instantly, what a wonderful second line!
Lin Xiaofeng also opened her mouth into an "O" shape, so that's it!
On the side of the 8th company, Ma Qiang, who was being punished to stand in a military posture, subconsciously clenched his fists, and then he was so scared that he hurriedly stood up again. He squinted at the instructor, okay, instructor Wu didn't pay attention to him at all, She was looking at the stereo under the street lamp, frowning and thinking.

But the other freshmen who were resting had no scruples, and there was applause and applause immediately.

In the live broadcast room, the enemy school approved the second couplet, "Okay, it's great, our second couplet is: [Guan Yu with a red face, Zhang Fei with a black face, and Zhao Yun with a white face, all protect Liu Xianzhu!]"

As soon as everyone hesitated, Li Fan blurted out again, "Cao Cao with treacherous intentions, Zhou Yu with ambitions, and Dong Zhuo with evil intentions, all have their hearts to seize Han Jiangshan!"

Xiaoya looked at Li Fan beside her in surprise, and thought: Isn't this too fast?Well, the mythical beast that can blurt out 18 lower lines, this is reasonable!

The enemy school is not calm anymore, "The wind is about to blow the bee, the bee falls to the ground, and the wind blows the bee!"

Li Fan tapped the live broadcast platform casually with the fingers of his right hand, and said with a smile: "Li wants to hit the carp, the carp sinks to the bottom, Li sinks and the carp floats!"

This is not a couplet, this is basically the rhythm of you saying one and I saying two.

The host of the hostile school became more motivated, and his voice became higher: "Hong is a bird by the river!"

Li Fan smiled and said, "Silkworms are worms in the world!"

The hostess of the hostile school suddenly shouted: "Swim to the West Lake, carry the tin pot, if the tin pot falls into the West Lake, it's a pity for the tin lake!"

Xiaoya anxiously said: "Your school, your three Shanghai couplets have already been published, and you have already exceeded the standard. Moreover, this [Swimming West Lake, Carrying the Tin Pot, Tin Pot Dropping the West Lake, Pity the Tin Pot] is not original. It’s an ancient top-notch top couplet, you guys are breaking the rules!”

The host of the hostile school: "I know, you have passed the test, and the rest are bonus questions!"

What a fart to add points, everyone is not satisfied, we don't want this extra points, and we can't add it.

Do you know what this is?This is an absolute handed down from the Song Dynasty.

From ancient times to the present, no one in Huaguo has been able to come up with a satisfactory second couplet for hundreds of years. It can be seen that this couplet is so difficult that it is difficult to go to the blue sky.

The "Xihu", "West Lake" and "Xihu" in the couplet have the same sound and rhyme, which is where the difficulty and brilliance lie.

The origin of this couplet is unknown, but a well-known saying is: According to legend, during the Northern Song Dynasty, when Su Shi was the magistrate of Hangzhou, one day he took a boat trip to the West Lake with scholars and scholars. in the lake.A literati came to inspiration, and recited this couplet accordingly.

As soon as this couplet came out, as far as the sound of the broadcast could cover, everyone raised their ears and frowned.

In Peking University campus, Chenhua campus, dormitories, and even in office buildings, teachers and students who heard the broadcast couldn't help but listen carefully.

"What? The ancient times are definitely thrown out?"

"Professor Zhang, listen quickly, Chenhua University has given Li Fan an eternal absolute!"

"Isn't it hard to be human? Don't talk about Li Fan. How many literati and poets haven't put up a couplet in the past few hundred years. Let Li Fan do it right? How is it possible?"

……

At this time, all the freshmen in the 8th company raised their heads and stared at the speaker above their heads.

Instructor Wu asked the students around him, "Is this so difficult for West Lake?"

Ma Qiang said: "It's hard, it's hard to die, as hard as it is, if Li Fan can face it, I'll eat him!"

As soon as the words fell, a calm voice came from the radio:

"I held the wine bowl and passed nine Anhui. The wine bowl was lost for nine Anhui. I have been missing the wine bowl for a long time."

Everyone is full of doubts, is this right?Oh, 100% is a "defective product"!If you blurt out such a famous couplet through the ages without thinking about it, you will eat porridge when you are a cultural person for hundreds of years?
Everyone didn't believe it, and it was impossible to believe that this was a perfect second line, so for a while, everyone lowered their heads and pondered this second line.

The voice of the enemy school came again from the broadcast: "Please Li Fan say it again and explain it in detail."

"Holding the wine bowl, passing Jiuwan, the wine bowl lost Jiuwan, long regretting the wine bowl..."

In the military training ground, Gu Yating of the 18th company suddenly snapped her fingers, looked happily at Ma Qiang of the 8th company who was thinking with her head down, and cast a sympathetic look.
