成语接龙，从「悲从中来」到「琳琅满目」的最短路径是什么？

Solving idiom chain puzzle

We need to find the shortest path connecting the Chinese idioms "悲从中来" (bei cong zhong lai) to "琳琅满目" (lin lang man mu). Starting with "悲从中来," which ends in "来," the next idiom should start with "来." Then I’m thinking of a chain: "悲从中来" → "来龙去脉"? This could work, as "来" links to "来龙去脉." I’m still figuring out how to make the final link, though! Okay, let’s keep going.

Mapping the idiom chain

Okay, I’m trying to piece this together. "悲从中来" ends with "来," so I need an idiom like "来龙去脉," which fits well as it starts with "来." But "来龙去脉" ends with "脉"—hmm! So then, I need an idiom starting with "脉." “脉脉含情”? But the goal is to get to "琳琅满目," starting with "琳." I need to find an idiom ending with "琳" to connect to it. Let's keep going, thinking it through.

Exploring idiom chain

The question involves connecting "悲从中来" to "琳琅满目" via a chain of idioms, where each idiom's last character matches the next idiom's first character. "悲从中来" ends with "来," and "琳琅满目" starts with "琳." So, I need idioms that start with "来." One chain could be "悲从中来" -> "来日方长." From there, we need one starting with "长". Another option could be "来龙去脉." Eventually, we need to find an idiom ending with "琳."

Finding minimal idiom chain

I'm trying to figure out the shortest chain of idioms between "悲从中来" and "琳琅满目." "悲从中来" ends with "来," and "琳琅满目" starts with "琳." So, I need an idiom that ends with "琳." I tried looking into chains with idioms like "脉脉含情," "来龙去脉," but none really seem to lead to a minimal solution. I believe "琳琅满目" itself needs a connecting idiom that ends with "琳," but I haven’t found such a common idiom yet.

Seeking minimal idiom chain

I'm still searching for a minimal idiom chain from "悲从中来" to "琳琅满目." I’m thinking of idioms like "珠围翠绕," "青瓦白墙," or "凤箫龙吟," but they don't work, as none end with "琳." "美轮美奂" isn't quite right either. Maybe trying something like "来日方长" -> "长驱直入," could help, but it’s still a bit unclear. I might need to look for known chain puzzles online that might provide some insight.

Considering the idioms

Hmm, this seems tricky! I'm wondering if there's a chain where the starting and ending characters match. I keep thinking of idioms like "来龙去脉" or "琳琅满目," but they don't quite match up. The chain seems excessively long, and there may be alternative minimal paths I'm missing. Maybe the chain involves steps like "悲从中来" leading to "来龙去脉," but finding a good phrase to connect that with "琳琅满目" is tough. I'll need to narrow it down to maybe just three or four idioms at most!
