Chapter 360: The Play of the Five Sons
Still a polite smile, Zhang Heng gave an explanation.
His newly developed geodynamic instrument has to build many of them, put one on hold for a hundred miles, and when regular vibrations are detected, they will sense the next one.
Speaking of which, it's still not too long in advance, and it can basically be equated with synchronous perception. Especially for the disaster area of the earthquake center, it is not very helpful.
After thanking him, Mai Xiaoji added the topic to the top, and then answered netizens' questions with Zhang Heng's registered username, and also uploaded a design drawing.
Now, the comment area has exploded again, to say that it is fake, the design drawings are too precise. But to be true, Zhang Heng is long gone, and this user must be an impostor.
It's good to have controversy, Mai Xiaoji smiled and buried himself in work.
Suddenly, the Golden Circle phone vibrates, and a message pops up in the system: prompt, there is a new task, do you accept it?
After upgrading, you can see the content of the task in advance, but you can't cancel it at all, Mai Xiaoji tried to refuse, but the system prompted again.
Looking at the system tasks, it's nonsense.
Quest content: Collect three-eyed jade toads over a thousand years old for 30 days. After completing the mission, you can receive the system package.
During the day, he also discussed with Zhang Heng about the toad under the geokinetic instrument, and now the system has a new task, and Mai Xiaoji doesn't know if there is a certain connection here. It may be that the content of the chat between the two people was detected by the system for keywords, so it was reminded to give itself a task.
Something that can last for more than a thousand years, whether dead or alive, is in itself of astonishing value. What kind of jade toad, Mai Xiaoji didn't even figure out whether this thing was a stone or an animal.
Compared with the system's worthless rewards, Mai Xiaoji was not tempted at all by this mission, and after choosing to accept it, he didn't care.
When the 30-day deadline arrives, it is nothing more than an unfinished.
Mai Xiaoji, who is paying attention to the progress of the ball game, also discovered another online competition on this day, and the joint game platform is going to hold a backgammon competition. The grand prize is still 5 million, with 3 million for the second place and 1 million for the third place.
Backgammon is not a formal chess game, so by the time Mai Xiaoji saw the news, more than 200,000 people had already signed up to participate, which would far surpass the last chess tournament.
The first thing that Mai Xiaoji thought of was Zhu Jinzhen, who won the chess championship, and backgammon was not a problem.
Alas, it's so easy to make money, and it's easy to get five million again, and Mai Xiaoji fell into a fantasy. However, when he told Zhu Jinzhen the news, he was dusty.
"Chess Saint, do you want to think about it again?" Mai Xiaoji asked eagerly, because Zhu Jinzhen said that it was inconvenient and refused.
"It's really inconvenient. Zhu Jinzhen waved his hand and shook his head.
"Chess Saint, if you have anything to say to me, do you think it's not high or what?"
"Definitely. Zhu Jinzhen hesitated, but still sent a line of words, "The play of five sons, how can it be regarded as chess?"
Oh! Mai Xiaoji suddenly realized that the chess master had not seen this kind of competition. It's definitely not pretentious, it's really not fancy, and it can't be passed with money.
"Chess master, it's still a prize of five million. Mai Xiaoji couldn't help but remind again.
Input, stop, input, what makes Zhu Jinzhen entangled is not whether to participate, but how to give Mai Xiaoji an answer. To put it mildly, Mai Xiaoji didn't give up, but when he said it seriously, he was suspected of discriminating against his peers, and finally just made a smile and stopped talking.
Since Zhu Jinzhen was unwilling, although Mai Xiaoji expressed deep regret, he did not insist anymore. With Liu Bang's bonus of 100 million as a benchmark, the 5 million drizzle, Mai Xiaoji is not forced.
However, in the eyes of ordinary people, five million is an astronomical number.
"Xiaoji, there's a backgammon competition, let's sign up!" Nangong Yue hurriedly came and talked about it.
"I'd like to, but I'm not very good at backgammon. Mai Xiaoji did not agree, although the participants are mainly folk masters, but his level will sink in the preliminary round, and it is impossible to win the championship.
"Xiao Ji, five million! It's still the old rule, I'll only share one million, and the rest will be yours. Nangong Yueyang begged.
"What, in a hurry to buy yourself a dowry?"
"Look, this!"
Nangong Yue put an object on the table, and Mai Xiaoji looked at it, it turned out to be an invitation letter sent to her by the organizer, hoping that the female chess king could participate. Win or lose, you'll be given a great gift!
"No way, now everyone knows that I am a female chess king, and it is not good not to participate. "Nangong Yue is so difficult, in fact, she still likes bonuses and special gift packages.
"Don't be stinky and beautiful, people are using you as a disguise, you have to promise to come down, and the organizer will definitely have news the next day, the female chess king has participated, and I call on more people to come to this platform." Mai Xiaoji said disdainfully.
"It's not surprising that the merchant has this in mind, Xiaoji, I want to pay off the rest of the mortgage, and I always think about paying it back every month, which is quite troublesome. Nangong Yue discussed.
"I can set up autopay!"
"If the balance is not enough, it will also affect the credit. ”
"You have enough money to buy two houses, and you say you don't have money to repay the loan. ”
"Yes, I admit, and I'm excited about the five million prize. However, as well as my reputation, the book is selling very well now, almost comparable to a bestseller, and it also supports my career. Xiaoji, please. ”
Without Mai Xiaoji's shameless orders, Nangong Yue took the initiative to pinch her shoulders and rub her legs, and personally served tea and poured water, showing great hospitality. Mai Xiaoji closed his eyes, enjoying himself while thinking about countermeasures.
Zhu Jinzhen did not participate, then, the rest of the ancients were also proficient in qin, chess, calligraphy and painting, and they all kept pace with the times, backgammon has a long history, belongs to the branch of Go, popular among the folk and ethnic minorities, these ancients should also know.
"Then try it. Mai Xiaoji opened his eyes and said.
"Thank you, Xiaoji!" Nangong Yue was very happy.
"However, the ugly words ahead, I'm not too good at backgammon, and I can only go with the flow of what the final result is. McEgie reminded.
"I also thought about it, as long as the results are about the same, it's no problem to win the third place!"
"Is this almost?" said McKee's eyes widened.
"Hee-hee, there has to be a ranking. ”
The try that Mai Xiaoji said was not that he competed, but that he asked the ancients to help. So, he sent this idea to all his friends of the ancients, including Zhu Jinzhen, in case he figured it out.
In fact, Zhu Jinzhen is very stubborn and still hasn't figured it out.
However, the rest of the ancients signed up enthusiastically, except for Mai Daochang, almost all the rest of them signed up.
"Brother Ji, I have to find my brother for this matter!" Liu Bang sent a message.
"When Brother Liu was in power, did he also hold a competition?" asked Mai Xiaoji.
"The most bitter thing in the world is the emperor, how can there be half a day of leisure! When I was in the Lu Mansion, I often won the family!"
Speechless, there are only a few people in the Lu Mansion, although he is a son-in-law, but in the end, he is the master, and no one dares to win him, which is unreliable.
"Brother, is it right to play backgammon? My sister is the best!" Li Qingzhao also took the initiative to ask.
"Tell us about your glorious backgammon history. ”
"That's a lot!"
And then what? No, Li Qingzhao has never participated in an official competition.
