Escape the Library

【Poem Maze-06】

Meng Haoran was a famous poet in the prosperous Tang Dynasty. Many of his poems were included in Chinese textbooks, the most famous of which was "Spring Dawn", which elementary school students would memorize. Of course, the library would not take such a simple "send score" test. Everyone followed Meng Haoran for a while, and the test question appeared soon, called "Leaving the King to Serve Yuwei".

Most of the students did not remember this poem, and Yue Xingwen quickly filled in the answer——

What does Jiji wait for, Chao Chaokong returns to himself. If you want to go to find herbs, it is a pity to go against your old friend. When the road is false, the bosom friend is rare in the world. Should only be lonely, but also cover the door of the hometown.

Lan Yarong looked at the verse in the floating frame and said, "This is a poem written by Meng Haoran to Wang Wei!"

Yue Xingwen nodded: "Well, Meng Haoran went to Chang'an to take the exam when he was 40 years old, but he failed to get the title. At that time, Wang Wei was already a guest of the nobles in the capital. Meng Haoran was disheartened and didn't want to stay in the capital, and he was reluctant to be with friends. Separately, I wrote this poem for Wang Wei."

Ke Shaobin said with emotion: "Is this the 'big god's circle of friends'? In fact, many poets are inextricably linked! It is actually quite interesting to study carefully."

Liu Zhaoqing looked at Yue Xingwen doubtfully: "We took the road of idyllic scenery and met Wang Wei at first, then Xie Lingyun, Xie Hao, Tao Yuanming, and finally Meng Haoran. As a result, Meng Haoran took another test here. A poem related to Wang Wei, it feels like... going around in a circle and ending at the end?"

Jiang Pingce said calmly: "Senior brother is right, we did make a full circle." He spread out the map in front of everyone, and Yue Xingwen immediately leaned over to check it carefully.

Along the way, they passed through woods, rivers, mountains, and pastoral fields, enjoying the fresh and beautiful scenery. The journey was farther than the frontier fortress. It took more than half an hour. After meeting Meng Hao, the degree of exploration increased to 50%. .

When I walked, I only felt that the path between the mountains was winding and winding, and it was very quiet. Yue Xingwen was in charge of solving the problem. Jiang Pingce was calculating angles and distances along the way. Coupled with Zhang Xiaonian's laser ranging, the map he drew was very accurate. Looking at the map now, everyone is surprised to find that the road to the pastoral scenery is actually a circle.

This result made everyone look at each other in dismay.

Lan Yarong couldn't help but said, "Could it be that if you go further, will you meet Wang Wei again?"

Yue Xingwen frowned slightly: "Let's take a look."

Everyone followed Meng Haoran's footsteps and continued to move forward.

Along the way, I encountered two more topics, one was Meng Haoran's representative work "Guo Ren Zhuang", and the other was "There is a Presence on the River in the Early Cold", Yue Xing Wen successfully filled in the vacant words and phrases.

Going forward, they really saw Wang Wei!

The familiar scenery around, as well as the traces left by Yue Xingwen after filling out the answer box, are clearly telling them: "You have been here just now."

Jiang Pingce looked at Yue Xingwen and said, "The road of pastoral scenery seems to be a complete closed loop. From Wang Wei, to Xie Lingyun, Xie Hao, Tao Yuanming, and finally to Meng Haoran, five NPCs stand in a circle. "

Ke Shaobin said: "If the exit of the maze is not here, then we have only one way left! It seems that we have to go back to Li Bai and the way to the Yellow Crane Tower."

Yue Xingwen nodded and looked at Qin Lu: "Continue to change the position of the plate, from the intersection of the pastoral style and the frontier scenery, let's go back the same way."

Wang Wei was near the intersection. Everyone walked back according to the map. With the help of Qin Lu's "plate transposition", it didn't take long for them to return to the wall where Li Bai wrote "Xia Ke Xing" with a stroke of his pen. forward.

There are two roads in front of the wall. On the right, "Dune City" meets Du Fu. Follow Du Fu and go forward. There are two branches of frontier and pastoral areas. Now it is confirmed that all the roads on the right are dead ends.

Yue Xingwen and Jiang Pingce looked at each other and walked to the left tacitly.

The road on the left only took a few minutes to walk, and a familiar building appeared in front of everyone. Next to the Yangtze River, there stood a delicately shaped attic, a five-storey building. Flying yellow cranes, there is a plaque hanging under the eaves of the attic, with the three characters of "Yellow Crane Tower" written on it.

The Yellow Crane Tower appeared here, and everyone was not surprised at all. After all, there was a sign of "Yellow Crane Tower" at the fork in the road just now. Of course, the next exam questions were also expected by the students.

"The Yellow Crane Tower Sent Meng Haoran's Guangling" Li Bai

The old man left the Yellow Crane Tower in the west, and fireworks went down to Yangzhou in March.

Lonely sails far into the blue sky, only the Yangtze River can be seen in the sky.

Everyone can memorize this poem. Everyone looks up a word and quickly fills in the answer.

I thought that after Meng Haoran appeared, he would take everyone on a journey to unlock more areas of the labyrinth and get to know more poets. However, just after they finished writing their answers, the scene in front of them suddenly flashed, and everyone actually came to the place where they saw Meng Haoran just now.

On the contrary, the "maze exploration degree" in the floating box has increased to 55%, because they unlocked the area of ​​​​the Yellow Crane Tower, increasing the exploration degree by 5%.

Liu Zhaoqing asked in confusion, "What's the situation? We're back to Meng Haoran again. Didn't we just come here? Go ahead and you'll find Wang Wei! Then there's the intersection of the countryside and the frontier?"

Qin Lu was also puzzled: "It shouldn't be an illusion, right? I remember that when I saw Meng Haoran just now, there were these trees behind him. Would you like to walk forward and try?"

In order to determine whether they had returned to the original point, everyone continued to walk forward, and the surrounding scenery became more and more familiar. After turning the corner, an acquaintance in front of them looked at them with a smile - it was Wang Wei.

Jiang Pingce frowned and said, "Further ahead, it's the fork in the frontier and the countryside. Then you meet Du Fu, then you meet Li Bai, and you will be teleported to Meng Haoran when you go to the Yellow Crane Tower."

Ke Shaobin adjusted his glasses, looked at the map carefully, and said, "That is to say, the maze of 55% of the area we are currently exploring has formed a complete closed loop. Li Bai is the starting point. After Li Bai wrote "Xia Ke Xing", he divided into two parts. The road, the frontier on the right, and the countryside are all dead ends; the Yellow Crane Tower on the left is a teleportation station that directly teleports us to see Meng Haoran.

Liu Zhaoqing couldn't help but complain: "Isn't this a dead end? No matter how we go, we are going back and forth on a path that forms a closed loop?"

Everyone thought about it, but they couldn't figure out where the exit of the maze was.

Yue Xingwen had to look at Jiang Pingce for help: "Pingce, what do you think?"

Jiang Pingce was frowning at the map at this time. Hearing Xingwen's words, he was silent for a few seconds before saying: "The circular path does not necessarily have no exit. This poetry maze is not a plane maze, but a three-dimensional maze."

Yue Xingwen's eyes lit up: "Just like the prime number maze that I encountered at the Mathematics Academy, there seems to be no exit on the same floor, but can you reach other floors by taking the elevator?"

Jiang Pingce nodded and said, "The reason why I determined that this is a three-dimensional maze is because the teleportation point in the Yellow Crane Tower is not in the same space as the rural scenery road."

On his map, the road between the Yellow Crane Tower and the pastoral scenery could not be connected no matter what mathematical algorithm was used, and could only be transmitted directly across time and space. Since such a teleportation point has appeared, it means that there are other teleportation points inside the maze, and the corresponding space has not been unlocked by them.

Ke Shaobin thought thoughtfully: "Where will the teleportation point be?"

Qin Lu suddenly said: "I remember the last Wang Zhihuan I met on the frontier scenery. He walked into a fog, and there seemed to be a transparent wall of air blocking us."

Ke Shaobin said: "The transparent air wall can be understood as the enchantment of different spaces. We tried it at the time, but the fog can't get in. Shouldn't it be the answer?" He looked at Jiang Pingce and asked, "What does Pingce think? "

Jiang Pingce said: "I personally prefer that the teleportation point is still on the road of pastoral scenery."

Ke Shaobin carefully thought about his experience along the way——

First, I met Wang Wei, and I took the two poems "Mountain Residence in Autumn" and "Painting", which increased the exploration degree by 5%.

Immediately following the increase in difficulty, Xie Lingyun's "Shibi Jingshe Returning to the Lake" and Xie Wei's "Late Climbing Three Mountains and Looking at Jingyi", combined with a 5% exploration degree;

Then there is Tao Yuanming's "Pick the chrysanthemum under the eastern fence, and see Nanshan leisurely", which did not increase the degree of exploration; then met Meng Haoran, and increased the degree of exploration by 5% after answering the question.

So many poets add up to a 15% exploration degree, which always feels unreasonable.

Ke Shaobin scratched his hair and asked, "Did you miss something?"

At this moment, Yue Xingwen suddenly said, "It's Tao Yuanming!"

Everyone turned their heads to look at Xingwen, but Yue Xingwen's eyes were on Jiang Pingce, and he said seriously: "Tao Yuanming, as the founder of the Landscape Pastoral Poetry School, the test question 'Pick chrysanthemums under the eastern fence, see Nanshan leisurely', this is the The poem that middle school students can recite is too simple, and only this one is tested, maybe there is a hidden mystery."

Jiang Pingce carefully pondered the artistic conception of this poem, and then thought about the scene at that time, and a flash of light suddenly flashed in his mind: "We only saw chrysanthemums everywhere, and we didn't see the 'Nanshan' he described!"

If you think about it carefully, you really only saw a lot of chrysanthemums at that time, which fits the description of "picking chrysanthemums under the east fence", and there was a road ahead, and they followed the road subconsciously.

But what about "seeing Nanshan leisurely"?

Yue Xingwen said: "There must be a fog near Tao Yuanming that has not been unlocked."

Everyone quickly returned to where Tao Yuanming was.

Tao Yuanming was very leisurely picking chrysanthemums there, occasionally pausing to rest, wiping his sweat, and squinting his eyes comfortably in one direction. Yue Xingwen followed his gaze and saw a cloud of white mist floating in the distance, and a mountain was looming under the cover of the white mist.

Jiang Pingce and Yue Xingwen looked at each other and walked towards the mountain in tacit understanding.

Surprisingly, there was no road here, but as they walked forward, a curved path appeared automatically under their feet. Ke Shaobin excitedly said, "It's a hidden path!"

This road is very long. Jiang Pingce calculated the distance while walking. When he came to the end of the road, a beautiful mountain appeared in front of everyone. Jiang Pingce said: "The distance we have just traveled is exactly the radius of the circle, and it is also In other words, this mountain is right in the center of the idyllic circular area."

This sentence made everyone's mood arouse - they must have found the right answer!

However, there is no way to go any further.

They couldn't go up the mountain, and the layers of white fog blocked them at the foot of the mountain. The moment they touched the white fog, a floating frame popped up in front of them, as if they had encountered a "password lock" and needed a verse to unlock it.

mouth mouth mouth mouth mouth

mouth mouth mouth mouth mouth

Fourteen word spaces, no hints.

Xu Yishen shrugged helplessly: "Is this not giving a question, just let us fill in the answer?"

Everyone looked at each other.

The previous exam questions have hints, either the scene corresponds to the poem, or the previous sentence is directly given and the candidates are required to fill in the next sentence. But this time, the scene corresponds to Tao Yuanming's poem "Seeing Nanshan Leisurely", but it's not a seven-character at all! There is no prompt for the upper and lower sentences. How should I fill it?

Ke Shaobin said, "Didn't we draw brush props before? Otherwise, let's just use props?"

Yue Xingwen smiled slightly and said, "No, I know how to fill it out, I'll try it out."

After he finished speaking, he took a step forward, picked up the pen beside the answer box, and quickly wrote a line of poetry.

--Mountain darkly, vista.
