Chapter 0032 – Looking at Each Other (2 / 2)

Xiang Capsicum was in a hurry, with her ink, how could she make it? She wanted to turn to Chen Zian for help, but remembering the relationship between the two, she could only pin all her hopes on Chen Zisheng.

Seeing this, Chen Zisheng snorted, “What’s the point of making all these twists and turns, why don’t you just tell us how much you want? We’ll buy this bracelet!”

Chen Zisheng’s tone was so rude that the fellow got angry: “Do you think that the proprietor of Dengjie Lou has never seen silver before? The proprietor’s intention is to meet friends through literature, so he doesn’t need this amount of silver from you! I won’t sell it for any amount of money! Do you still want to participate in this competition, if not, please don’t block the way of the people behind you!”

Chen Zisheng has always been a good face, today even let the subordinate to the loss of a pass, can not help but be furious. Just when he was about to have a fit, he heard the sound of applause from the side, and realized that his second brother had already marched to the side at some point, and started to solve the riddle.

Chen Zian did not pay any attention to the chaos around him, his eyes were focused and he poured all his attention on the wall full of riddles.

“Play on the word: If you have a mind to go, you can’t go fast enough; if you see water, you can’t fill it; if you have long grass, it’s hard to clean it up; if you have food, you can eat it.”

“A: Mann.”

“Playing a thing: can make the demon’s guts all destroyed, body like a bundle of silk gas like thunder. The sound of a shock makes people afraid, but when they look back, they see that they have already been turned into ashes.”

“A: Firecrackers.”

Chen Zi’an had studied hard for many years, and at the age of fourteen he had won the Candidate of the Xiu Cai, so how could an ordinary riddle ever be difficult for him? He was able to write down the answer on the paper in just a few moments, attracting a lot of admiration and applause from the onlookers.

After only one incense stick of time, the puzzle on the wall had been mostly solved.

Xiang Capsicum pulled Chen Zisheng back and said softly, “The second young master is helping them get back on their feet, the eldest young master will only have to wait a few moments.”

In that case, Chen Zisheng’s face was also much better, only that he was ultimately a bit jealous when he watched Chen Zian make such a splash in the crowd.

In less than an hour, Chen Zian had already transcribed the entire wall of riddles onto paper.

The fellow’s eyes widened, went up to check, one by one, after comparing the incense sticks, said incredulously: “Your Excellency is really a god! All of them are right! We have set up this competition for three days now, and you are still the first one to be able to solve all the puzzles in the room!”

Chen Zi’an’s face raised a smile, his body has long faded away from the party’s bleakness, only the scholar’s calmness remains: “In that case, can it be the top of the list?”

“Done and done! Your Excellency, wait a moment, I’ll go report to the proprietor!”

Xiang Capsicum looked at Chen Zian, he stood in the crowd, like a proudly independent bamboo, no branches, extraordinary temperament. Without using a word, he has already collected all the human splendor.

She suddenly regretted her retreat a little.

Such a person, even if you can not keep each other in the future, even if it is to spend a morning and a night – fear has long been better than the world.

But what Xiang Capsicum didn’t know was that at this moment, apart from her, there was someone else observing Chen Zian from the shadows.

In the elegant room of the Dengjie Tower, a woman in a cloth robe quietly closed the window, and a fawning smile appeared in her crude eyebrows, “Well, now you’ve seen it, ma’am, the Chen family’s second young master, with such looks and talents, and your family’s pearl in the palm of your hand is also considered to be a good match!”

In the elegant room, a gorgeous lady was sitting on top of the main seat, unwillingly retracting her eyes from the window, her face vaguely showing joy.
