Wanderer of the whirling world

Chapter 345

"We took the bet..."

Xin Ziqiu, with his yellow hair on his head, answered loudly, looking rather funny.

Aiden and Diana were about to give up, but Xin Ziqiu took the lead, and they didn't come up in one breath, stuck in their throats, not to mention how uncomfortable it was.

"Xiao Zizai, what are you doing?"

Diana was a little anxious, her voice became sharp, and she stretched out her hand to pull Xin Ziqiu, but her tender and ladylike demeanor disappeared.

Since the fat man appeared, he has been talking a little bit. Although the three of them have become a lot more normal after forming a team, they still look dazed.

She didn't believe that such a person would be some kind of brilliant genius who could solve the problem given by Jin Yazhang.

"Shh..."

Aiden put his index finger to his lips, motioning Diana to silence.

He is older, more stable, and more thoughtful.

Now that "Xiao Zizai" has taken over the gamble, it's too late to change.

It is really unwise to find a partner to pursue responsibility at such a time. It is better to take the time to think about it and see if you can come up with the answer within 30 seconds.

Diana was aggrieved, but she also understood what Aiden meant, so she had to suppress her anger and think about the answer to the question, but she had no clue at all.

Every time you open the jar, if you can't find the Netherfire, it will jump to the jar adjacent to it, which means that the location of the Netherfire is different every time. , most likely never will and will never be able to find it.

However, even if there is a way to infer the current whereabouts of Netherfire by looking at the jar for a limited number of times, since it can move, there will still be two choices when the jar is opened next time, each accounting for 50.00% probability, There's no guarantee you'll be able to catch it either.

Diana thought about it, but couldn't come up with a definite solution, and the 30-second counting sound of the gold teeth next to her made her even more upset, unable to concentrate at all, and felt her head was about to explode.

……

Half a minute flashed by.

"It's time, do the three of you have an answer?"

Diana angrily gave Xin Ziqiu a gouged look. If eyes could kill, she would have cut this pushy kid to pieces.

Aiden also shook his head, and looked at Xin Ziqiu, his eyes full of doubts.

It stands to reason that the traveler who can enter the Floating Realm on behalf of the Lingxiao Temple must be the proud son of the contemporary heaven, and will never do things that are not sure.

But if it is said that the chubby Xiao Zizai can solve such a difficult problem with full confidence within 30 seconds, he really does not believe it.

Could it be that we are all deceived by his appearance?This person looks simple on the surface, but actually has special talents?
Like in the movie Rain Man?

……

Just when the two were suspicious and slandering, they only heard Xin Ziqiu say with a smile:

"Up to six times, you can guarantee to find the Netherfire."

This kind of intellectual problem is naturally difficult for Xin Ziqiu, who has played logical reasoning as a game since he was a child. After listening to the problem, he already had an idea, so he accepted the bet.

In the remaining 30 seconds, he not only came up with a specific solution, but also went through it twice in his mind to ensure that there was nothing wrong with it and that there were no loopholes or omissions.

Gold Teeth grinned, and the big yellow teeth were crooked like gold inlays.

"The answer is correct, but empty words are not enough, you have to give a rough solution anyway."

Hearing Xin Ziqiu gave the correct answer, Diana and Aiden were surprised, but also a little lucky.

It turned out that this "Xiao Zizai" was not fooling around, but really had two brushes.

Blind?
This is not a multiple-choice question, it is so easy to get it right.

Both of them let out a long breath at the same time, looked at Xin Ziqiu, and waited for him to give an answer.

Just listen to him say lightly:
"Here are the five jars, the initial position of Netherfire, there can only be two situations, either in the '2' and '4' of the even number, or in the '1', '3' and '5 of the odd number 'among."

"If the Netherfire was in the even-numbered jars in the first place, we could do this and that..."

"...so we can be sure to find the Netherfire by simply looking for jars '2', '3', and '4' in that order."

"If you can't find it, it means that the Netherfire was in the three jars with odd numbers at first..."

"Then after the first three lookups, it must have gone from odd to even pots, in other words, we're back to the first case."

"The rest is very simple, we just need to look for the '2', '3' and '4' jars in order again, and we can make sure we find it."

"So the final answer is six times, and the sequence is '234234'."

After hearing this, Jin Yazhang laughed hoarsely and said:

"Wonderful, wonderful, concise and to the point, clear thinking, young man has two skills. According to the agreement, your points will be doubled. In addition, this 'Ghost Fire' is also given to you as a reward."

While talking, I saw the light curtain flickering continuously in the quiet night sky, and the points of the three became "84", and the ranking also rose to tie for fifth place.

"You got 'Ghostfire'. Quality: Rare."

"Efficacy: In the ghost city, every 5 minutes, you can summon a group of ghosts to kill. Outside the ghost city, you can summon an S-level ghost to fight side by side with you."

In Xin Ziqiu's palm, a small ball of glowing green fire suddenly appeared out of thin air, and soon turned into a shallow pattern, which was printed on his palm.

He felt that this mysterious and profound power had been connected with his own mind, as long as he had a thought, it could immediately exert its function.

The points were shared by the three of them, but Xin Ziqiu got the Nether Flame alone as a reward for answering the question correctly.

Naturally, Diana and Aiden would not have any objections. They were able to get more than 40 points out of thin air, all thanks to Xin Ziqiu's credit, and they were already very satisfied at this time.

At the same time, they couldn't help but look at Xin Ziqiu with admiration.

Sure enough, people are not judged by their appearances. Who would have thought that this fat man dressed in strange clothes and looking stunned was actually a logic wizard.

With a wave of his hand, Jin Ya put away the pot on the ground, and said in a drake voice:
"Okay, I wish you three good luck. If you can last until the end of the ghost market, maybe we will have a chance to meet again. Come on, walkers."

As he said that, his figure gradually faded, and quickly turned into a thick fog, which melted into the night and disappeared.

At this time, because everyone encountered the problem of the golden tooth, on the light curtain, the rankings of the walkers have also undergone some changes...

……

　This question is the so-called "brain teaser" that the author was asked when he was looking for a job interview.

　　It seems that life experience is still helpful for writing books.

　　After all, this book is not a popular science book on mathematics, and I don't need to write the specific solution here. If you are interested, you can search the logic question "Naughty Elf" on the Internet.
