Chapter 177 If You Can Answer a Question, You Will Win
The villagers in the surrounding villages all had shocked and confused expressions on their faces.
This is completely different from the picture they imagined before coming here!
How can it be? !
Didn't you answer the first question?
However, the villagers in Wangjiacun suddenly became overjoyed and surprised from their initial nervousness.
"Are we so powerful?"
"I would say we underestimated ourselves and overestimated others."
"More than 30 villages together were stumped by the first question. It's really embarrassing."
"It seems that the illiterate village should be given to them!"
On stage.
Wang Mo still had a faint smile on his face, but he sneered in his heart: "Yes, this is the first question. If you can answer one of the following questions, you will win."
Just like the question he asked just now, it seems simple, but the simpler the question, the harder it is to answer.
Where did the term "village" come from?
Not to mention Luo Min, it is estimated that many professor-level figures who specialize in literature would not be able to answer this question.
Because its answer does not appear in literature tutorials.
The answer the system gave him came from the book "History of Chinese Villages" written by a professor in his previous life who spent decades visiting more than 5,000 tribes in China.
At this moment, Luo Min, opposite him, still seemed unwilling.
She gritted her teeth and said, "Wang Mo, my second question is: Please tell me, how did the 'village' in China come about?"
As soon as these words came out.
Everyone was in an uproar again.
Even Wang Mo raised his eyebrows and took a serious look at Luo Min.
This girl is a bit smart!
The second question actually asked the same question as him. It seemed that she was sure that Wangjiacun didn't know the answer.
Are you trying to repay the other person with his own methods?
Unfortunately……
Wang Mo waited for a few minutes, and his think tank handed over a piece of paper again. He opened it and read, "I don't know."
Look at the paper.
Wang Mo began to talk eloquently: "In China, villages are dotted all over the place. When did the village become a conventional concept? In the existing classics, the word 'village' first appeared in "Three Kingdoms", Volume 16 " "The Biography of Zheng Hun" records: "Yu all became a vassal, and the five fruits were abundant. Entering the border of Wei County, the villages are neatly organized, and the people have enough wealth to use their money. "
In other words, the word "village" has appeared in China since the Western Jin Dynasty.
During the following Wei, Jin, Southern and Northern Dynasties, the word "village" began to be widely used in naming rural settlements. For nearly two thousand years, this term has not undergone major changes and is still used today. "
Luo Min originally thought that Wang Jiacun asked the first question casually to embarrass her.
But when she heard Wang Mo's answer, she froze on the spot.
As a literature student.
It was also the first time she heard such an answer.
Until Wang Mo stopped.
She was suddenly excited, her eyes filled with disbelief.
But after a while, Luo Min asked: "How do you prove that your answer is correct?"
Wang Mo smiled: "Aren't you a student in the Literature Department of Renmin University? You can call your teacher and ask him whether the answer is correct."
After saying that, Wang Mo signaled someone to bring up Luo Min's mobile phone and gave it to her.
Luo Min hesitated and made a call.
On the phone, Luo Min told her teacher: a professor from the Chinese Department of Renmin University of China all the questions Wang Mo asked and his answers.
A few minutes later.
The professor gave her a reply, saying that he was not sure whether the answer was correct, but he had just read "Three Kingdoms" and found that the word "village" did appear in Volume 16 of "The Biography of Zheng Hun". Therefore, the probability of the other party’s answer being correct is extremely high.
This answer made Luo Min feel shocked.
Her teacher, a professor from the Chinese Department of Renmin University of China, actually didn’t know the answer and even had to look up information to verify the authenticity.
"this……"
Luo Min almost lost his mind.
How did the little Wangjiacun ask this question and know the answer?
Luo Min didn't speak for a long time.
Wang Mo asked: "Classmate Luo, what's going on? I'll let you know whether it's correct or not."
Luo Min took a deep breath and said with a complicated expression: "For the second question, Wangjiacun answered...correctly."
boom!
After hearing Luo Min's answer, the villagers exploded again.
Wangjiacun actually answered correctly again?
sky!
Wang Mo ignored everyone and said, "In that case, I will ask my second question."
There was a hint of solemnity in Luo Min's eyes: "Please tell me."
Wang Mo glanced at the note and said with a smile: "The topics in our Wangjia Village are very close to daily life. Now is the Chinese New Year period, so please briefly tell me the origin of the Chinese New Year."
Luo Min thought of the legend of the Nian beast almost instantly.
She quickly said: "New Year's Eve is also called New Year's Eve. Legend has it that a long time ago, there was a monster called 'Nian'. It had long tentacles on its head and sharp teeth. It had a fierce look in its eyes and was extremely ferocious. 'Nian' lived there all year round. Under the sea, they only climb ashore every New Year's Eve, devouring livestock and harming human lives. Therefore, every New Year's Eve, people in villages and villages flee to the mountains with their young and old to avoid the harm of the 'year'.
Later, by chance, people discovered that 'Nian' is most afraid of the color red, fire and explosions.
From then on, every New Year's Eve, every family puts up red couplets and sets off firecrackers; every household lights up candles and watches the New Year's Eve. Early in the morning on the first day of the Lunar New Year, we also visit relatives and friends to say hello. This custom spreads more and more widely and has become the most solemn traditional festival among Chinese people. "
After finishing speaking.
Luo Min's eyes showed pride as he finally answered a question.
Even the villagers in the audience showed expressions of enlightenment and spoke one after another.
"So there is still such a saying during the New Year?"
"Luo Min is really well-informed."
"real or fake?"
"It should be true. I happened to read this legend on Douyin a few days ago."
"My grandson told me the story of the New Year Beast a few days ago."
"Your grandson is really awesome."
"That's so smart."
"..."
When everyone is admiring.
Wang Mo on the stage looked at Luo Min with a half-smile.
Luo Min frowned: "Wang Mo, isn't that right?"
Wang Mo said calmly: "Student Luo, as a student of the literature department, don't you know the rigor of historical literature? I just asked you about the origin of the New Year. I wanted you to list historical materials with sufficient evidence, using historical books. Records to illustrate it. Not for you to tell mythical stories.”
"I……"
Luo Min's face suddenly turned pale.
Because what Wang Mo said is right.
She inadvertently made a big mistake. In the face of rigorous historical literature, she actually told mythical stories.
Fortunately, her teacher didn't know, otherwise she would have been scolded bloody.
At this moment, Luo Min wanted to dig a hole and get in.
Wang Mo said in a deep voice: "Student Luo, do you need me to tell you the answer?"
Luo Min shook his head and looked pale: "This time, I was careless. I will find the answer myself. I won't bother you."
Are you asking Wang Mo to read the answer?
Humiliate her again?
beside.
An old man in charge of presiding over the group competition said in a deep voice: "For the second question, Luo Min was wrong. Currently, Wangjiacun leads 2:0."
Two to zero!
Many surrounding villagers could no longer sit still.
Someone yelled.
Someone is pointing fingers.
Some people are anxious.
Mudd!
They came to see more than thirty villages trampling on Wangjia Village, not to see themselves embarrassed.
As a result, with the combined strength of more than thirty villages, not even one question can be answered correctly?
On the contrary, it was Wangjiacun from the "illiterate village" who answered two questions correctly in succession?
On the stage, Luo Min still seemed to have not recovered from the blow just now. She returned to her own think tank and came back after a long time.
Then, Luo Min said: "Wang Mo, next is the third question. If your Wangjiacun can still answer it correctly, we will not ask any more questions on the first day."
Wang Mo: "Okay!"
Luo Min said: "We often say 'disregard the six relatives', so which relatives are these six relatives?"
Wang Mo sighed.
This is an interesting question because it's so easy to get it wrong.
only.
It's still simple for him.
After the think tank handed him a blank piece of paper, Wang Mo said with a smile: "Six relatives, in fact, there is no fixed theory in history, and it is still controversial even today.
However, there are three representative statements:
The first type: According to "Zuo Zhuan", the six relatives refer to father and son, brothers, aunts, nephews, concubines (wife's family members) and in-laws (husband's family members).
The second type: According to "Laozi", father and son, brothers and husband and wife are the six relatives.
The third type, according to the "Book of Han" records, has father, mother, elder brother, younger brother, wife and son as the six relatives. "
Luo Min did not expect that the questions carefully selected by himself and his think tank would be answered so easily by Wangjiacun.
And the answer is absolutely accurate.
If it weren't for the fact that the think tank couldn't access mobile phones and all technological equipment, she even doubted whether the other party had found the answer online.
Because this question seems not difficult.
But if you want to give an accurate answer, you must read the history books and remember three different versions.
Even she herself wouldn't be able to answer it if she hadn't checked the information in advance.
But Wangjiacun gave the answer almost instantly.
At this moment, Luo Min's heart could no longer be calm, and only one thought came out of her heart: Is Wangjiacun an illiterate village? If this is still an illiterate village, what are other villages? Based on his performance just now, there are definitely powerful people in Wangjia Village. She didn't know how powerful the other party was, but she was certain that he was definitely much more powerful than she, a student of the Literature Department of Renmin University.
This challenge...
She couldn't go on.
Otherwise, you will only be humiliated.
After taking a few deep breaths, Luo Min calmed herself down and then said: "You answered the third question correctly. Now please tell me your third question."
As he spoke, Luo Min felt a breath of anger in his heart.
I answered the first two questions wrong.
So she secretly made up her mind to answer the third question correctly. In this way, if you step down, you will gain a little face.
She didn't believe it, she couldn't answer a single question!
After finishing speaking, she stared at Wang Mo, waiting for his questions.
Wang Mo followed his usual practice, glanced at the blank note, and then said with a smile: "Just now, classmate Luo asked me a question about 'disowning relatives'. Generally speaking, people who disown their relatives are heinous. In this case, then our Wang family The village will come up with a question based on this incident, and the question is, may I ask Student Luo: There are ten evils that are unforgivable, which ones are they?"
? ? ?
Luo Min's high-spirited confidence disappeared instantly, and his face became extremely ugly.
