The hands in Zhou Zhixian's sleeves were tightly clenched, and a nervous look appeared on his face.He didn't expect such a thing to happen in Wendou this time, and his butt was on pins and needles.Even the eyes of the prefect and chief envoy showed a glimmer of expectation, and they also hoped that this literary struggle would be successfully concluded.

"Brother Xin!"

Zhou Yu strode up to Luo Xin, grabbed Luo Xin's hand, and his face showed excitement.Haizheng also quickly walked up to Luo Xin, his small face was flushed with excitement, he took a simple step, but in the end he stopped with a change of expression.

Luo Xin raised his hand and patted Zhou Yu's hand lightly, signaling him to calm down.An impressive look appeared on Zhou Yu's face, and he let go of his hand. Only then did he see Zhang Xun, and said:
"Brother Xun, you are here too."

"Well, I'll accompany brother Xin." Zhang Xun said with a smile. Apart from Luo Xin, he was the calmest person in the Wendou arena.

Luo Xin stepped forward, Zhou Yu, Haizheng and Zhang Xun actively followed behind.Dressed in a moon-white Confucian shirt, Luo Xin's elegant and confident temperament is revealed even more. Jian Jian, who is opposite him, has been coaxed away by scholars from other counties. At this moment, seeing Luo Xin strolling, he involuntarily moves aside, focusing on Luo Xin. The letter walked past him.

Luo Xin walked past the table and came directly to Mr. Wen in the middle of the ring. Shi Li saw Mr. Wen first, then he straightened up and looked down the Wen Dou ring, his eyes sweeping over the booing scholars from other counties.

The hearts of those scholars from other counties under the Wendou arena jumped, but most of them were dissatisfied.They didn't believe that Luo Xin was good at both math and couplets!

Luo Xin was also very angry at this time, you think the level of the two counties is not good, so it's okay to boo.But you can't rush to the pair, I have never seen such a disaster.

So his gaze was a little cold, and after scanning it once, he withdrew his gaze and saluted the three scholars opposite, who also hurriedly returned the salute.At this time, they were also looking forward to Luo Xin, expecting him to end this hellish process.

"Three seniors, my younger brother's upper line is: Yansuo Pond Willow."

"Smoke Lock Pond Willow?"

The three scholars on the opposite side were stunned, this pair is not difficult!Even Zhou Yu, Haizheng, Jian Ming and Zhang Xun were taken aback.There was a commotion among those scholars from other counties under the Wendou arena, but they didn't rush to confront each other. They felt that Luo Xin dared to come up at this time, not to mention that he could do anything absolute, but it was impossible for such a simple pair.

"Wonderful!" The magistrate on the viewing platform of Yanglin County smiled with his beard, and then frowned slightly thinking about this pair.

"Absolutely!" The chief envoy on the viewing platform of Yangqu County showed a hint of surprise in his eyes, and then he frowned slightly and began to think.

At this time, the officials and celebrities on and off the stage and a group of scholars all reacted. This pair looks simple, but each of the five characters has an attribute, complete with gold, wood, water, fire, and earth.

At this moment, the expressions of those scholars from other counties changed, and they realized that even if this match was not absolute, it was still a very difficult match.One by one, they frowned and thought about it.

At this time Zhou Yu, Haizheng, Jian Ming and Zhang Xun also wanted to understand the mechanism of this pair, and looked at Luo Xin's back in admiration, but they were greatly relieved, and then they all frowned. Think about it.Jian Ming shook his head while thinking, and then glanced at Luo Xin, showing a trace of fear in his eyes.

The three monks from Yangqu County on the opposite side looked at each other with a relaxed look on their faces.At the same time, a sense of fighting spirit rose in his heart. Luo Xin from Yanglin County published a couplet that made it hard for scholars from other counties. If the people from Yangqu County could face each other first, wouldn't they be really proud?
As a result, all the scholars in Yangqu County also frowned and began to think, and the entire Wendou scene was silent.

Mr. Wen stood up and lit a stick of incense himself to start the timer.The atmosphere in the Wendou arena immediately became tense.Every scholar wants to come out before the incense burns out.

Time passed quickly in the silence, the stick of incense was half burned, but the surroundings were still quiet, and no one answered the pair.Even the officials and celebrities on the viewing platform frowned and couldn't figure it out.

Lin Chang and Zhang Shu on the bullock cart looked up at each other, and both shook their heads and sighed.Zhang Shu whispered:

"Brother Lin, your disciple is really a monster."

Lin Chang also smiled wryly: "To be honest, I don't think I have anything to teach him now."

Zhang Shu couldn't help shaking his head when he heard that, a teacher would have a headache when he met a stupid student, and he would also have a headache when he met a monstrous student.

"call……"

There was a sudden sound of exhalation in the silence, because the stick of incense had already been burned, so there was no need to think about it, everyone didn't know what mood they were in at this moment.

It's nothing more than Luo Xin being good at arithmetic, but he didn't expect a pair to stump the entire Jinyang Mansion's scholars.You must know that these scholars also include those Juren and Jinshi, and they also did not match this pair.

At this time, everyone's eyes were focused on Luo Xin on the Wendou ring, but Luo Xin's gaze was on Mr. Wen in the center of the ring.Mr. Wen naturally understood the meaning in Luo Xin's eyes, stood up and said loudly:
"In the second round, Yanglin County won!"

"boom……"

The people in Yanglin County cheered, which means they can use water first.The people in Yangqu County were downcast.This time they lost everything, and Yanglin County won with a crushing momentum.In these two games, they not only won against Yangqu County, but also against scholars from other counties.

And those scholars from other counties were staring at Luo Xin, showing anticipation, they were waiting for Luo Xin to say the second couplet of the pair.But Luo Xin didn't say the meaning of the second couplet at all. After bowing deeply to Mr. Wen, he turned around and walked towards Zhou Yu and the others.

"Wait a minute!" Mr. Wen finally couldn't bear it anymore, he was also waiting for Luo Xin to say the second line.Seeing that Luo Xin was about to leave, he hurriedly hugged him and said:

"You haven't said the second line yet."

Luo Xin turned around and spread his arms and said, "I don't know, I thought of an upper couplet at the beginning."

"Om..."

There was a burst of discussion under the Wendou arena, and the officials and celebrities in the stands were also dumbfounded.But no one doubted Luo Xin, it was not easy for such a difficult pair to come up with the upper line, and it was normal not to be able to think of the lower line.

Mr. Wen also shook his head dumbfounded, but there is no doubt that Yanglin County won.Immediately, he shouted loudly:

"This Wendou..."

"Wait a minute, Mr. Wen!"
