Escape the Library

【Poem Maze-01】

After breakfast, the students of the 183 research group walked into the elevator in two batches, and a new floor appeared at the elevator button. The academies on the 1st to 11th floors have been cleared, and the new academy unlocked on the 12th floor is still marked with the word "unknown", which means that the 12th floor is the mode of self-selected colleges.

Yue Xingwen and Jiang Pingce looked at each other and said, "In the liberal arts, has the School of Humanities with the most students ever appeared, is it on the 12th floor?"

Jiang Pingce nodded and said, "What you say is usually very clever."

Yue Xingwen smiled and looked back at his teammates: "Anyway, the optional mode is better than the direct force. We can choose the college that we are best at."

As soon as the voice fell, the elevator heard a "ding" and stopped on the 12th floor. Everyone walked out of the elevator, and a wall-sized screen appeared in front of them, with a few lines of announcements written on it—

【Welcome to the 12th floor of the library】

[The 12th floor includes three colleges: College of Humanities, College of Physical Education, and College of Film]

[Among them, the School of Humanities mainly focuses on literature, history, and philosophy related majors, the School of Physical Education includes all sports school training programs, and the School of Film involves majors in acting, choreography, photography, etc.]

【Students can choose one of the colleges to clear their required courses. As long as you have completed the course of the college, the library will consider you to have cleared the 12th floor]

Ke Shaobin couldn't help but said: "Xingwen, there is a humanities college, are you a prophet?"

Yue Xingwen said calmly: "My guess is also based. We have cleared most of the colleges, and there are really not many left."

Looking back carefully, the colleges you have seen so far do indeed cover most of the colleges and departments of the comprehensive university. The art category has also passed the three courses of art, music and dance. On the 12th floor, there are movies, sports, and the humanities college with a very large number of students. , is indeed reasonable.

Jiang Pingce turned his head and asked, "Is everyone okay with choosing the School of Humanities?"

Everyone shook their heads: "Of course no opinion!"

Yue Xingwen pressed the "School of Humanities" in the option box, and the wall in front of him really opened from the middle, and everyone walked in from the entrance, followed by the door of the School of Humanities.

The course selection center of the School of Humanities is antique in shape, and its architectural style is a bit like a Suzhou garden. On both sides of the corridor are the top-to-the-top solid wood bookshelves, which are filled with various books. As soon as you walk in here, you are like being in a sea of ​​books.

Zhuo Feng said as he walked: "The School of Humanities usually includes the Department of Chinese, the Department of History, and the Department of Philosophy. These majors require reading a lot of literature and have very high requirements for knowledge reserves. We have Xingwen from the Chinese Department, and History Department. Qin Lu, this academy should be able to pass the test very well!"

Xu Yishen patted him on the shoulder with a smile: "By your auspicious words, our literature-related majors rely on literary fighting, not fighting, and it is not suitable for escaping, right?"

Liu Zhaoqing complained: "I hope the library will talk a little bit about martial arts, and the Humanities College will not dance with knives and guns, and test poetry and poetry, and Xingwen will lead us to lie down and win."

Having said that, everyone has entered the course selection center.

In the middle of the quaint and elegant study is a solid wood desk with a calligraphy and painting on it. The curriculum is written in cursive cursive, and there are inkstones and brushes beside it.

School of Humanities Curriculum -

Monday and Wednesday 8:00-10:00 am, compulsory course "Poetry Labyrinth", credit 4;

Tuesday and Thursday 14:00-16:00 pm, compulsory course "The Great Tang Dynasty", credit 4;

The whole day on Friday is elective, and the two electives are "Chinese Philosophy" and "Western Philosophy".

Ke Shaobin was overjoyed when he saw the class schedule: "A 4-credit class, and it's a poetry test, it's definitely not difficult for us to star!"

Lin Manluo also breathed a sigh of relief and said, "One of the two compulsory courses is Chinese and the other is history, which is very beneficial to us. The elective course is philosophy. Our team has no teammates majoring in philosophy, so we can just skip it."

Liu Zhaoqing smiled and said, "I just experienced the life-and-death escape from the School of Physics, and I have come to two slightly less fatal courses. It is difficult and easy to combine, and the library is still a bit human?"

Yue Xingwen looked at everyone and said calmly: "Two 4-credit courses are indeed much better than one 7-credit course. But we can't be careless, especially since the first course is a labyrinth course, everyone should be careful. Be cautious."

Everyone nodded in understanding.

They have also encountered maze classes before, the "prime number maze" in the School of Mathematics, the "ladder maze" in the School of Architecture, and now the "Poetry Maze" in the School of Humanities. Credits are not so easy to pass.

Fortunately, Jiang Pingce is good at spatial reasoning, and with Yuexingwen's poetry reserve, there is no need to worry too much.

Yue Xingwen searched for a long time and couldn't find the button for choosing a course. He glanced at the desktop, suddenly had an idea, picked up the brush, and drew a circle on the course "Poetry Labyrinth" written on rice paper.

A familiar prompt popped up in front of me—

【Required Course: Poetry Labyrinth】

[Faculty: School of Humanities]

【Credits: 4】

[Exam room rules: The maximum number of people in the exam room is 12 (excluding X members)]

【Course description: Ancient poetry has a long history and shows the most unique charm of Chinese. The flat, rhythmic and catchy poetry is the most worthy of our proud cultural heritage】

[Exam requirements: Solve all the poetry puzzles and get out of the maze within 8 hours]

[Remarks: The recommended team has teammates with a Chinese department or a relatively rich reserve of poetry]

After reading the course description, Yue Xingwen felt a little doubt in his heart. Solve the puzzle? It seems that the maze this time is not as simple as everyone thinks.

The countdown sounded in their ears, and everyone immediately quieted down and prepared to enter the examination room.

At 8 o'clock in the morning, the scene before everyone's eyes flashed——

When I opened my eyes again, everyone appeared in a paradise-like place.

There are beautiful mountains and clear waters here, and peach blossoms are blooming everywhere. There were two people standing by the river, one of them seemed to be stepping on a boat, and the other was standing on the bank.

Everyone looked at each other, not knowing what to do.

Lin Manluo wondered: "There is no road around, what kind of labyrinth is this?"

Ke Shaobin scratched his head, and suddenly his eyes lit up: "I see, this is an exploration maze! It's like the fog maze in stand-alone games. We just entered the maze, and everything around is white fog, as we move forward. Walk, the path you walk, the fog will dissipate, and the path you haven’t walked will still be covered by thick fog.”

Jiang Pingce couldn't help frowning when he heard this: "The wider the fog is, the harder it will be to find the correct path. The time limit is 8 hours, everyone hurry up and see if there are any clues."

The next moment, a huge "Chinese Dictionary" suddenly popped up in front of everyone's eyes, and a blank space like fill-in-the-blank questions appeared next to it. if we assume. A small square represents a word, so the answer to this puzzle should be a 28-character seven-character quatrain.

Yue Xingwen looked carefully at the dictionary in front of him and said, "The blank space is a seven-character quatrain. The way to solve the puzzle should be to find the corresponding word in the "Chinese Dictionary" and fill it in the answer box."

Zhuo Feng frowned and said, "This way of answering the question is bizarre enough. The answer is a poem, but there is no hint of a single word?"

In the past, in the exams for writing poems by dictation, one or two sentences were given, and the blank sentences were filled in, or the names of the poems were given and the candidates were required to write the full text. What's the situation today?

Yue Xingwen looked around quickly.

Peach blossoms, river water, boats, and white mist in the shape of two people...

A flash of light flashed in his mind: "I know the answer!"

After that, he quickly read out a seven-character quatrain that everyone is familiar with: "Li Bai was about to travel by boat, but suddenly he heard the sound of stepping on the shore, the water in the Peach Blossom Lake is thousands of feet deep, and it is not as good as Wang Lun to send me love."

The teammates were stunned for a moment, how could this be? !

Of course, everyone will memorize this poem, but the picture corresponds to the poem, and it doesn't respond for a while.

Jiang Pingce said decisively: "Everyone is divided into 4 groups and find words in the dictionary as soon as possible."

12 people tacitly arranged in four rows, and 3 people are responsible for a line of poetry, which can greatly improve the efficiency. In a blink of an eye, they found words such as "Li" and "Bai" from the dictionary, and quickly filled in the answer area in order.

After all 28 words were filled in, a soft light effect flickered in the floating frame of the answering area.

Immediately following, the fog in front of him quickly dissipated.

The facial features and figure of the two people on the shore, which were originally a mass of white mist, gradually became clearer.

I saw that the person standing on the boat was dressed in white, with a pot of wine hanging from his waist, holding a long sword, looking very handsome. The person who sent him on the shore was wearing a blue shirt, and there was obviously a bit of reluctance in his expression. As the appearance of the two characters became clear, a line of prompts popped up in front of everyone's eyes——

Character unlock: Li Bai.

Tang Dynasty famous poet.

Please follow Li Bai's footsteps and continue to explore the maze.

Exploration 5%.

The moment the prompt disappeared, the ship Li Bai was on actually dashed into the mist.

Yue Xingwen was stunned for a while, and hurriedly said, "Follow him!"

Ke Shaobin resolutely summoned the small picture, with the crisp "Let's swing the oars" singing, the small picture with a height of 1.6 meters, quickly completed the deformation with a few clicks - it became a big ship with two sides on both sides. There are also paddles.

Everyone: "..."

Ke Shaobin urged: "Get on the boat! Li Bai is in the boat, and we have to take the boat to catch up with him."

Yue Xingwen hurried to the boat without knowing whether to laugh or cry, and the others quickly followed. Where the ship passed, the thick fog quickly dissipated like a picture scroll.

Not far away, Li Bai rode a flat boat forward all the way in the clear river water. He was tall and straight, his clothes were fluttering, and he was elegant. In the back, 12 people from the 183 research group sat collectively on a silver metal boat in the shape of a "dragon boat", listening to Xiaotu singing "Let's Swing the Oars", while reluctantly sliding the oars.

This style is simply unwatchable.

Lin Manluo said: "Why do I think that Xiaotu's skill is a little bit second?"

Liu Zhaoqing complained in a low voice, "If Li Bai was conscious, he would definitely think that we are helping fools, and then write a poem about encountering fools while swimming in the lake, which will be passed down through the ages."

Everyone: "..."

Fortunately, Li Bai never looked back at them.

He should be an NPC set by the library, acting on a fixed route.

I don't know how long it took, just after Xiaotu sang "Let's Swing the Sculls" completely, Li Bai's boat suddenly stopped, and a large waterfall appeared in front of him.

Ke Shaobin hurriedly replied: "Is it flying down 3,000 feet this time, it seems that the Milky Way is falling into the sky for nine days?"

Yue Xingwen found that this labyrinth is quite fun, exploring the fog, and there is actually Li Bai as a tour guide for everyone?
