Seeing that Zhao Mu had studied for one or twenty minutes without any clue, Shigong Wang Bo looked at Lu Lao, who was watching Zhao Mu's movements with a smile and interest, and said, "I said, Lao Lu, what kind of trouble are you making here?"

Lu Lao smiled and said nothing.

After watching it for a few more minutes, Shi Gong asked: "I said Lao Lu, you are not going to let this kid solve it on the spot, others don't know that I don't know, and you haven't solved this baby thing until now." ”

Lu Lao smiled: "Yes, so far, there are no more than ten people who can solve this ball, and it took three full days to solve the fastest one, and more than a month to solve the slowest." ”

Hearing this, Shigong's eyes widened, "I said that my surname is Lu, are you deliberately trying to embarrass my apprentice?" You said that the fastest took three days, you are not prepared to let this little guy spend three whole days." ”

Lu Lao slanted his eyes and glanced at his master, "You old guy will put gold on your apprentice's face, three days, do you think this little guy can solve it in three days?"

I don't know what Shigong thinks in his heart, but he is full of trust in Zhao Mu, "That is, my apprentice grandson I still don't know, others can complete it in three days, he will definitely be able to, maybe it won't take three days." ”

Lu Lao smiled angrily, "You old guy is really not ashamed, you apprentice grandson has never been in contact with carpentry, right? Although you can recognize this as a Luban lock, but this alone is not enough, whether you can crack this thing is one thing." ”

"If I said this kid could do it, he would definitely be able to do it. ”

"Cut, you can do it, who do you think you are?"

"Hmph, do you want us to take a gamble?"

"Okay, just bet a lot, I don't believe it today, let's say, what to bet on?"

"Hmph, isn't this kid begging for your help, if I win, you can help this kid solve the problem behind. ”

"And what if you lose?"

"I'm not going to lose. ”

Lu Lao smiled angrily, pointed at Shi Gong and said: "Okay, you are surnamed Wang, you want to repay the debt, right? What if you win, what if you lose?"

Shigong glared and said: "If I say that I won't lose, I will definitely not lose, and I will recognize you if I lose." ”

"Okay, that's what you said. ”

Lu Lao smiled proudly, "I don't take advantage of you, if you lose, how about selling me the real handwriting and painting of Yan Liben that you collected?"

Shigong's face suddenly darkened, that calligraphy and painting was his treasure, not to mention selling, he usually refused to let people see it easily, but he didn't expect to be remembered by this surnamed Lu.

Yan Liben is a famous painter in the Tang Dynasty, his real calligraphy and painting is now very rare, each calligraphy and painting can be called a peerless treasure, worth hundreds of millions, this calligraphy and painting is the heart of the master.

The master would never take it back, looked at Zhao Mu, who was still pondering, and said in a deep voice: "Okay, I agreed." ”

Lu Lao was stunned when he heard this, looked at his master and said in surprise: "Surnamed Wang, you really gambled?" You are not mistaken, I am just joking with you." ”

Shigong glared, "Who is joking with you, I seem to be joking with you?"

Lu Lao stopped talking, and was silent for a long time before he sighed: "The surname Wang, you really look down on you as a disciple, if you lose, I owe you a favor." ”

Old Man Lu knows very well how closely the master values the calligraphy and painting, how many people want to buy the painting, the master has not agreed, and even some people have offered a sky-high price of 500 million yuan but still did not agree.

"Hmph, don't say it so early, I don't necessarily lose. ”

Saying this, the master has no bottom in his heart, his apprentice is the first time to contact this Luban ball, and he should not have been in contact with a similar Luban lock before, and he has basically not been in contact with carpentry, although he knows that his apprentice is very smart, but he is still not sure in his heart.

The quarrel between the two old men did not interrupt Zhao Mu's thoughts, and Zhao Mu, who was immersed in thought, would not easily get out of this state, as if he had sunk into another world.

The fingers were dexterously moving on the Luban ball in his hand, making mistakes again and again, and starting over again and again, Zhao Mu's brain was running rapidly.

After experimenting again and again, Zhao Mu began to change his thinking, and calculated the process of cracking the Luban ball in his hand as a difficult mathematical problem.

In fact, there is no problem in converting the cracking process of Luban's lock into a mathematical problem to calculate, but the various variables in it make the difficulty of this mathematical problem far higher than many advanced mathematical problems, and the calculations required are massive.

Breakthroughs again and again have strengthened Zhao Mu's brain again and again, and now Zhao Mu's brain computing power is far beyond many people's imagination.

While the brain was frantically calculating, and at the same time, his fingers kept moving one node after another for verification, Zhao Mu's eyes became brighter and brighter, and Zhao Mu could feel that he was getting closer and closer to the correct answer.

The two old men were watching Zhao Mu's movements, with their own thoughts.

Shigong's idea does not need to be guessed, of course, he hopes that Zhao Mu can complete it as soon as possible, not only to be able to win this bet, but most importantly, to have a bright face.

Lu Lao's mood is a little complicated, he hopes that Zhao Mu will not succeed, but he also has an expectation in his heart. There are not many people who can crack this Luban ball, and the young man is only one person so far, and the old man hopes that there will be young people who can surprise him.

The movements of Zhao Mu's fingers gradually became faster, and they were constantly accelerating, and later, the movements between the finger movements were connected, almost early summer, and the eyes of the two old men were dizzy.

"Okay, I've figured it out. ”

The two old men asked at the same time, "Calculated out?"

After completing the puzzle, Zhao Mu walked out of his own world, with a happy smile on his face, "Yes, I figured it out." ”

"Take it apart and take a look. ”

"Good!"

Zhao Mu showed a confident smile on his face, his fingers moved quickly, and in less than ten seconds, the Luban ball in his hand turned into thirty-two smooth wooden strips with a mortise and tenon structure.

"This ......"

Old Man Lu's eyes almost widened, and he subconsciously looked at the plum blossom watch in his hand, and then Old Man Lu's head twisted all of a sudden, almost not flashing to his neck, and a pair of eyes looked directly at Zhao Mu.

Zhao Mu was furious by Old Man Lu's direct eyes, and subconsciously looked at his body carefully, and wondered: "There is nothing wrong with me." ”

"Hahaha......"

Shigong's laughter rang out suddenly: "Hahaha...... Shepherd boy, well done, he really deserves to be my Wang Bo's apprentice, hahaha......"
