Ten Days End

"Look!" Qiao Jiajin said with a smile, "I'll tell you! This word has only one pronunciation, "Bin". "

Qi Xia didn't know how to explain this situation, so he could only nod silently.

In any case, the pronunciation of "梹" is easy to guess. If he encounters other uncommon characters next, it will be a gamble.

Although Dilong mentioned in the "rules" that "writing homophones" is to prevent both teams from using uncommon characters, Qi Xia deduced for a long time and felt that it was a bit far-fetched to form 28 characters without using uncommon characters.

Qi Xia lowered his head and looked at the "soldier" in his hand. Logically speaking, now is not the best time to form a "character", after all, there are too few "characters" in his hand, but the opponent has already launched an attack, so he can only take one step at a time.

He picked up the "soldier", which is a "Qiu" and an "eight" to be exact. The "eight" character is welded together as a whole and cannot be separated.

Qi Xia first put "Qiu" on it, and after getting one point, he put "Ba" on it separately. Unfortunately, the character "Ba" is a whole, and there is no way to continue to form "Ping" and "Pong", otherwise he would have scored two more points.

In this way, the total score of Qi Xia's team is seven points, "Bing", "Mu", "Mu", "Xiang", "梹", "Qiu", "Ba", and "Ba", which is even twenty-one "characters" away from twenty-eight points.

In this case... can the radicals in my hand form other "characters"...?

Qi Xia experimented and put several possibilities on the "Phoenix Book Table", but soon found that not every combination can be received by the screen.

After trying several possibilities, a strange "character" once again caught the eyes of the two, and the screen read:

"The prototype of the character "朳" has been received, please write down the homophone."

"This..." Qiao Jiajin was stunned again, "Is this character pronounced "pá" or "bā"? ”

After listening to this, Qi Xia felt that Qiao Jiajin had raised a question worth considering.

Although the word "eight" is pronounced "bā", in many commonly used characters, "eight" will change its pronunciation once it is combined with radicals, such as "lying down" and "pickpocket".

But the word "pick" is also pronounced "bā", and the word "pick up" is also commonly used as the onomatopoeia "ba".

In addition, Qi Xia could no longer think of any other commonly used characters containing "eight". At present, there are two characters that are pronounced "pā" or "bā" in his memory.

"I still have to take a gamble..." Qi Xia said.

He stretched out his hand, thought for a few seconds, and wrote the homophone on the screen - "ba".

- "Create success".

A total of eight points.

"Huh..." Qi Xia took a deep breath and shook his head, "Sure enough, I don't like this reckless feeling. It's no different from an ordinary gambler."

"It's okay, liar!" Qiao Jiajin patted Qi Xia's shoulder and said, "It's good to score!"

Qi Xia nodded and continued to look at the scattered "characters" in his hand. He had deduced many times, but always felt that something was missing.

Why are there so few "characters" that can be formed?

"You can still form a character." Qiao Jiajin pointed to the radicals in Qi Xia's hand and said, "This, and this, these two can form a "character."

Qi Xia looked down and saw that Qiao Jiajin was pointing at "目" and "八".

"These two...?"

"Yes." Qiao Jiajin nodded, "This is the "貝" in "贝壳", liar, why did you ignore such a simple "character", is it dark under the lamp?"

"This...?" "Qi Xia frowned slightly, and naturally knew what word Qiao Jiajin was talking about, because this was not "darkness under the lamp", but a direction he had never imagined.

Traditional Chinese characters...?

""貝"..." Qi Xia touched his chin, whether it could be formed or not, he could just try it directly.

So he chose "目" and "八", and put his hands up and down.

The screen flashed for a while, showing a line of text he had never seen before-

"The text "貝" has been received, this word does not count as the score of this game, please create it again."

"Ah...?" Seeing this, Qiao Jiajin stretched out his hand and knocked on the screen, "It's broken, liar, this screen seems to not recognize words! "貝" doesn't even know!"

"It shouldn't be "not recognizing words"..." Qi Xia said, "Think carefully, the "characters" given to us by Dilong at the beginning omitted traditional Chinese characters, "车" is "车", "马" is "马", so pure "traditional characters" should not be counted in the score, at least "貝" cannot be counted. "

Qiao Jiajin was silent for a long time, then slowly said: "Is this game aimed at me...?"

Qi Xia knew that this game was aimed atIt's not just Qiao Jiajin who is right, but all the "participants". If traditional and simplified Chinese characters can be used freely, the chance of winning will be higher.

But now...

"Wait..." Qi Xia looked at the scattered characters on the screen, his eyes flickered slightly, "I seem to be too obsessed with the concepts of radicals and components... When Cangjie integrated these characters... How could he be limited by these concepts..."

Thinking of this, Qi Xia reached out and picked up the "eight".

He gently moved his fingers, rotated the small metal character "eight" 180 degrees, and placed it on the "Phoenix Book Table", forming an "inverted eight". Under Qiao Jiajin's puzzled eyes, he picked up "wood" and placed it under the "inverted eight".

"Hey...?" Qiao Jiajin was a little confused, "What is this...?"

"Only in this way can we get enough words..." Qi Xia whispered, "No wonder I feel that there are not enough "words"..."

This time the screen flashed longer than before, and a few seconds later, a line of red words appeared:

"The word prototype "米" has been received, please write down the homophone."

Qiao Jiajin was stunned for a long time after seeing it, and then exclaimed: "I... I'm sorry!! This can form "米"... You have a good brain, liar!"

"I should have thought of it earlier..." Qi Xia said, "Now there are more "words" that can be formed."

Qiao Jiajin stared at the screen for a long time before he felt something was wrong: "Liar... Do you... know the homophone of "米"? "

"米"...?"

Qi Xia touched his chin after hearing this. The most commonly used word with this pronunciation is naturally "米" itself, but writing "米" now obviously doesn't count.

"Got it." Qi Xia raised his eyebrows and poked the screen with his hand.

His sharp handwriting slashed across the screen, leaving a bright red font -

"Mi".

"......?" Qiao Jiajin was slightly stunned after reading it, "You know a lot, you liar..."

"Creation success".

A total of nine points.
