Chapter 609

"I've long heard that the Hall Master is a famous 'alley-style' dark doggerel poet in Liyue. Since we've met today, how about we have a contest of couplets?"

"Just for amusement, and to provide some entertainment for the viewers!"

The viewers in the livestream were currently discussing what kind of request 【Zimi】 would make.

Some guessed dancing, some guessed singing, and some guessed playing *Genshin Impact* together.

There were even those who guessed they would go prank miHoYo together!

They never expected it would actually be a couplet contest!

Good grief!

Hearing this, the livestream was instantly in an uproar.

"No way! A couplet contest?? And she even brought out the 'King of Couplets'???"

"Haha, didn't see that coming, really didn't."

"So cultured, is this what an intellectual is like? Love it, love it! (Funny)"

"As expected of you, Zimi!"

"Alley-style dark doggerel poet vs. King of Couplets? Exciting!"

"Hall Master, I support you, hurry up and compose a couplet to crush her!"

"I'll go first: Origin not linked, purple crying and making a fuss, little Zimi is laughable, laughable!"

"Haha, everyone's a talent!"

"..."

In the villa lobby.

The women were also full of surprise when they saw this.

A couplet contest?

This is too exciting!

"Lumine, do you think Hu Tao can out-match her?"

Paimon looked at Lumine curiously.

When they went to miHoYo to participate in the 3.2 version livestream before, this person had already come up with several famous lines.

She could be considered half an expert!

She wondered what her take was.

"Definitely!"

"Don't look at Hu Tao as being confused about many things on Blue Star; that's just because she's new here."

"Actually, her eloquence is very good, not beneath mine."

"You guys just wait and see."

Lumine said with a smile.

Not beneath hers?

Hearing this, Paimon's expression turned strange.

Is she indirectly praising herself?

But thinking of those two passionate lines from the other party, she was instantly speechless.

Alright, she really does have the real goods...

Shaking her head without thinking too much, Paimon continued to look at the big screen.

In the livestream room.

Hu Tao also raised an eyebrow after hearing this request.

First, dancing!

Then, improvising lines on the spot!

And finally, a couplet contest?

Good grief!

The Blue Star viewers of this generation are really capable of stirring things up!

You really can't handle it without some solid skills!

Since the other party has "come to kick the gym," Hu Tao would naturally accept.

She, the dignified Hall Master Hu, is not afraid!

"I am Hu Tao, I've read books for two and a half years, and I currently serve as the Wangsheng Funeral Parlor Hall Master!"

"Let this Hall Master meet you, the King of Couplets!"

"You go first and give the first line!"

"Alright!"

【Zimi】 nodded with a smile.

After pondering for a moment, she said:

"One village, two miles, three scholars total, not knowing the Four Books, Five Classics, or Six Arts, yet daring to teach seven, eight, nine children—extremely bold!"

Hearing this, Hu Tao pondered for a moment, then said:

"Ten gongs, nine drums, eight suonas, paired with seven-seven, six constellations, five refinements, four seats, three dishes, two soups—everyone eat at the funeral feast together!"

Seeing this first exchange, the viewers in the livestream were delighted.

"Good! A brilliant response!"

"Not bad, these two, high-level play, haha!"

"Wait, seven-seven, six constellations? Good grief! That's too ruthless!"

"But the Hall Master's response... it's okay, this is very Hall Master!"

"The couplet is good, but it always feels like it's missing something."

"I know, it's missing a tantrum! (Dog head)"

"【Zimi】, hurry, hurry up and throw a tantrum, haha!"

"..."

On this side, Hu Tao thought of something and smiled wickedly at the viewers in the livestream.

"Regarding this second line, this Hall Master has one more to give you all."

"That is—ten fates see nine blues, knowing eight chances are hopeless, seven souls gather and scatter, six spirits purified, five fats down, four books out, three words of top-tier double defense maxed out, one outcome unchanged!"

Hearing this second line, everyone was dumbfounded.

It wasn't that the response wasn't good.

This second line was very neatly matched!

But wasn't this content a bit too cursed?

The livestream instantly exploded.

"Holy crap! Is this a couplet a normal person could think of? Too ruthless, right?"

"Main stat defense, sub-stat defense maxed out..."

"Wonderful, absolutely wonderful! (Funny)"

"Thanks, Hall Master! By the way, please dismantle the camera in my house!"

"Watch me: one poke, twenty thousand, second half of floor twelve, four hours of hard grinding just for fifty Primogems. Ten gambles, nine crooked, eight times of enhancement, seven hundred thousand Mora wasted, six hundred resin gone."

"I'll come too: one pull, double gold, no three purples, all crooked, four emptiness, five organs torn apart. Six constellations, seven pulls, eight times of getting gold, nine repeats, ten not worth one."

"Horizontal scroll: Blood pressure maxed out!"

"Good grief, everyone's a ruthless person!"

"You guys are all no good, still have to look at Zimi's! Zimi, hurry, hurry up and compose a couplet to crush the Hall Master! (Dog head)"

"..."

【Zimi】 was laughing uncontrollably while looking at the bullet comments.

Seeing someone tag her, she coughed twice.

Rolling her eyes, she immediately continued to compose a line.

"Tianren City, can't win, can't run, little Hu Tao is laughable, laughable!"

"Wuwang Hill, high altitude, good feng shui, burying a Zimi is just right, just right!"

"Can't win in Tianren City, can't run away, little Hu Tao is laughable, laughable!"

"Wuwang Hill has high elevation and good feng shui, burying some rice is just right, just right!"
