Chapter Five Hundred and Eleven Three Years Start
Fill in the blanks is indeed difficult.
Just as the old man said, no matter how vague the multiple-choice questions are, you have a quarter of the chance of correct answers. But the fill-in-the-blank questions are different. If you don’t know the correct answer, the chance of guessing can only be described in four words in a slightest way.
There was once a saying of multiple-choice questions in China. If you can get zero points for a test paper full of multiple-choice questions, it can only prove that you are a real master. Yes, there is only one possibility that you can cleverly avoid all correct answers, that is, you will do these questions.
But fill-in-the-blank questions are different. If you give you a hundred questions, those who can’t do them will still get zero points.
This is the case with the question in front of you. How many years have you been sentenced to? This requires an accurate number. There are a hundred answers from one to one hundred, not to mention that more than one hundred is not impossible. In this case, it is impossible to guess.
Wei Jiu's eyes slowly condensed, and the answer was already clear in his heart. What he was worried about at this moment was not the final answer, but another tangled detail.
In the previous question, the question gave a limited condition, that is, China. But the current question is not exactly the same, and it does not clearly point out where the specific point is. Just a very deep detail can change the existence of the final answer.
But from this perspective, the problem will be complicated, and I am afraid the final answer will be a bit strange.
Wei Jiu's expression gradually began to think. Since he was the person chosen by Xu Shen, Xu Shen should have some similar interests. With his personality, he would never have done such a chaotic question, and the final answer must be only one.
"Xiao Liang is seven years old this year, grandfather is forty-eight years older than Xiao Liang, and mother is thirty-three years younger than grandfather. Ask how many years he was sentenced to?" Wei Jiu murmured with this question in a low voice.
After pondering for a while, he slowly said, "According to ordinary logic, Xiao Liang is seven years old, then grandpa is fifty-five years old... and mother is thirty-three years younger than grandpa, that is, twenty-two years younger..."
"Another subtracting Xiao Liang's seven years old will prove that her mother gave birth to Xiao Liang when she was fifteen. So, she was pregnant with Xiao Liang when she was fourteen!" Wei Jiu smiled helplessly, "I once read a book in China, and there is a sentence in it... After eliminating all the impossible, the remaining answer, no matter how incredible it is, will be the truth!"
The old man took a breath, but he didn't expect Wei Jiu to be so logical. The ending of his deduction was something that these mermaids had never thought of.
Before he knew it, a trace of light shone in his eyes again. He seemed to have felt that Wei Jiu could give the most correct answer. Thinking of this, the old man unconsciously urged, "Young master, what is your final answer? How many years should Xiao Liang's father be sentenced to?"
Wei Jiu's eyes condensed, and a cold light shot out directly, and he said word by word, "Starting in three years, the highest death penalty!"
The eight big words interpret Wei Jiu's wisdom and also confirm the final answer to this question. Yes, Wei Jiu succeeded, and the golden light gradually gathered into the eight words, slowly filling in the blank space. Then, all the lights dissipated and slowly turned into four big words and appeared in front of Wei Jiu.
"Trial passed!"
Wow, the scene suddenly became boiling, and no one expected that Wei Jiu would succeed again. They were cheering and shouting, and it seemed that the answer was the correct ones like these mermaids. In fact, this was the case. After Wei Jiu's answer correctly, the mermaids also received a valuable spiritual wealth.
"Young Master...you...you are so awesome, can you even think of such an answer?" The old man grabbed Wei Jiu excitedly and said tremblingly.
"Haha, nothing. In fact, the most difficult thing about this question is not these logics, but a detail that transcends the question!" Wei Jiu smiled and shrugged, "Actually, this question itself is not difficult, but it is a bit subtle when putting it with the first question... After answering the first question, I subconsciously pay attention to a detail in my mind, that is, is the set conditions China? Which period of China was it?"
"Ah? What does it mean?" the old man was stunned and asked quickly.
"Let's put it another way... If this question is placed on the prehistoric continent, it is not illegal. The prehistoric continent does not have much requirement for marriage. Similarly, if it is placed on the ancient Chinese Kingdom, the same is true!" Wei Jiu said with a smile, "But it is not the case in modern China, and there are clear regulations on this aspect!"
The mermaids became silent and thought about Wei Jiu's words secretly. They didn't understand what these words meant.
"Then the question is, if it is really such a meaningless question, it is placed in this place, do you think it is reasonable?" Wei Jiu asked, "The answer is naturally no. Since the Void God can create such a majestic world, his strength and character are beyond doubt, so he cannot spend his energy to do something meaningless, so there must be an answer, a fixed answer!"
"The second question arises... How many years is the answer given on this question? But let me ask you, can we really deduce the accurate year?" Wei Jiu laughed in a low voice, "It is obvious that it is impossible... no one can explain the accurate year clearly!"
The mermaids were stunned and couldn't understand why Wei Jiu said this.
"I remember you said that these derived questions actually stole the memories and worldview of our hearts... So I think this question is also impossible to be groundless!" Wei Jiu laughed in a low voice, "Starting in three years, the highest death penalty... This was required by the Chinese law back then, and it was probably the most likely answer!"
"So that's it!" The old man exclaimed, clapped with a smile, and praised in a low voice.
At this moment, a small light shot directly towards Wei Jiu. With a look, Wei Jiu held it. Looking closely, it was Xutian Yin and Yang Chess. This chess piece was back in Wei Jiu's hands again.
"It seems that it can't wait to return to the young master's hand?" The old man shrugged helplessly and smiled, "But congratulations to the young master, this is also the return of the original master... I just don't know if the young master wants to continue answering the questions?"
"Hmm? Tell me!" Wei Jiu asked curiously.
This is, but the old man pretended to be mysterious and silent. After a long time, he finally spoke. He said in a deep voice, "I am the guardian of the Xuhai Sea. I have been guarding the bottom of the Xuhai Sea for thousands of years, waiting for the young master's return... There are countless secret treasures hidden in the Xuhai Sea, all of which are treasures left by the Void God when he was sitting in the transformation!"
“…”
Wei Jiu was a little helpless. What were they talking about? But out of politeness, he did not deliberately interrupt the old man, but listened to him continue to chant.
"Epic treasure, answer one question correctly and change one... Legendary treasure, answer one question correctly and change one... Old-level treasure, answer one question correctly and change one... Incomplete treasure, answer one question correctly and change one!" the old man said excitedly.
"puff!"
Wei Jiu, who had not bleed during the fierce battle, was so angry that the old man spit out a mouthful of blood. He really saw the ghost, what is this operation?
"Why are you just a question changing to another treasure? Don't you finish it in one breath?" Wei Jiu asked with some displeasure after wiping the black line on his face. The mermaids around him straightened their ears, and this question was what they wanted to know.
"Haha, you don't understand this!" the old man said in a low voice in a mysterious way, "Xu Shen said to me back then... If a sentence is long enough, it will make the speaker unfathomable!"
"puff!"
Although Wei Jiu was originally prepared, such a nonsensical answer still made him irritate his blood that forced him back. He only heard him tremblingly accusing, "Are you the only idiot in the sea of ruins? How could it be so swelling! You have also seen the questions I answered just now. Which question do you think has been long?"
"This..." the old man thought for a moment, shook his head helplessly, and argued, "Although they are all very short...but..."
"It's not that they are very short, but there's no nonsense! You said so much nonsense in one breath, not only won't I think you are awesome, but I'm an idiot, but I'm an idiot?" Wei Jiu stroked his forehead helplessly and laughed in a low voice.
However, the old man could only smile in disappointment and said helplessly, "Maybe I have understood it wrong... But no matter what, you should make a choice, should you continue to answer the questions?"
Wei Jiu shook his head helplessly and said speechlessly, "It seems that you don't seem to understand what I mean, "What I mean is not the final reward... Actually, I know what the final reward is, otherwise I wouldn't have considered it!"
Seeing the old man nodding and expressing his understanding, Wei Jiu continued, "I asked the conditions for answering the question... If I answer the question next, should I fight for my life? Or, you can also give me the guarantee of immortality and let me answer the questions without any damage!"
The old man was shocked, but he didn't expect that what Wei Jiu said was actually this. He rolled his eyes and shouted angrily, "Before the Void God left, there were only three opportunities to answer questions without damage... You just used the third one, so where is there such an opportunity!"
"Then there is nothing I can do, I'll give up!" Wei Jiu smiled helplessly.
"Uh...no? You are our young master. Only you can answer all these questions correctly. How can you give up!" the old man murmured awkwardly.
"There is no way, I can't joke about my life!" Wei Jiu smiled, "Since I have received two treasures, I should be satisfied... I will leave here, I hope you can take care of it!"
