Shooting is over

Shooting is the earliest drinking game. According to the relevant historical records, during the Three Kingdoms period, there were incidents of shooting sculptures in Guanlu, Weijin and Guo Pu. There is a saying in Two Untitled Poems by Tang Shangyin: "I will teach you how to gamble through the spring wine, while it warms me up. We will roll dice under the crimson lamp in teams." Shen Fu's "Six Chapters of a Floating Life" in the Qing Dynasty recorded a boudoir love, including a sentence that "non-success is not good to drink, three cups are better, and teaching is to shoot the lid", and a sentence that "don't light the bow, wait for the moon to drink quickly, and shoot the lid to make it".

Shoot, shoot, guess; Cover up, cover up and hide. In the early days of shooting games, the main trick was to make riddles and hide something with pots and bowls in advance for people to guess. These two tricks are relatively direct. Later, on this basis, an indirect and tortuous shooting game in the form of language and characters came into being. Its method is to use conjunctions to hide things and make people guess. If the shooter can't guess or guess wrong, and the repeater misjudges the shooter's guess, he will be fined. Qing Yu Payton's "Jiuling Cong Chao Gu Ling" said: "However, the so-called shooting and sculpture in the teahouse today is completely different from this. The words on the law are engraved, and the next word is stamped. If the word' wine' is set, the words' spring' and' pulp' will make people shoot it, and the photographer will say a word and understand each other. " This basically explains the principle of playing drinking games. This is the same as the drinking order described in the sixty-second chapter of A Dream of Red Mansions. Respondents first use poems, idioms and allusions to cover up something, then the shooter guesses, and then use another poem, idiom and allusions to uncover the mystery. For example, after Baochai and Tanchun got the correct idea, Tanchun covered the word "person", Baochai said that the word "person" was very broad, and Tanchun covered the word "window" twice. When Baochai saw a chicken on the table, she shot the words "chicken window" and "chicken man", that is, the word "chicken" and the word "Geng". When Tanchun heard that he was shooting, he used the classic phrase "chickens live in the fields". They smiled and understood each other, and each took a sip of the cup at the door. For another example, after Li Wan and Xiuyan confronted each other, Li Wan covered the word "gourd hanging on the wall", which is almost the code word of "gourd hanging on the wall". When Xiuyan was filming, she said the word "green", which almost used the poem "sorrow". Only in this way can they understand each other and have a drink.
