Chapter 180, Water, Fire, Trees, Flowers

"Uh......"

Upon hearing this, Wang Gang was stunned for a moment, "There shouldn't be this one." ”

"It's good that you know. I rolled my eyes: "Since it's a crossword puzzle and a backstory, it naturally has to be analyzed according to the backstory." Not to mention whether your tap water and lighter are the correct answers, the mere fact that they are out of the backstory is enough to rule out your answer. ”

Wang Gang nodded thoughtfully, "It seems that this is really the case, thanks to your reminder, otherwise if this answer is said, I am afraid that it will hurt Yun'er!"

"I know you're in a hurry, but sometimes you can't rush something. ”

Seeing that Wang Gang was able to get through, I also breathed a sigh of relief: "But it's a good thing that you can give advice, Wudou may not be able to do it, but if Wendou gathers the strength of all of us, there may not be no chance, there is still more time now, think about it carefully, you should be able to come up with it." ”

"Brother, you are good at this, whether Yun'er can succeed or not, it depends on your help. Wang Gang looked at me pleadingly.

"What are you talking about? We're all part of a team, so we're going to do our best. I patted Wang Gang on the shoulder: "Gangzi, hurry up and think of the answer, don't worry about anything else, get through the current level." ”

Wang Gang nodded heavily, didn't say much, sat down directly on the spot, and began to think about the riddle.

What water has no fish, what fire has no smoke, what tree has no leaves, what flower has no branches?

After Wang Gang sat down, I also fell into deep thought, not only the two of us, but everyone including Liu Yun had the same expression, solemn, confused, and a little nervous that was difficult to hide.

These four anagram questions are very different from the first anagram.

The first anagram is similar to a figurative metaphor, and then it takes a little bit of scrubbing to give the answer. However, the current question is a very clear question, just need to combine the background story, and then give a corresponding reasonable answer.

Speaking of which, the first question is more esoteric than the second question, but it does not mean that the second question is easier to answer than the first question.

I closed my eyes, rubbed my chin, cut off any outside distractions, and began to think carefully about the four anagrams.

What water is without fish?

The first question is very straightforward and seems very simple, because in a certain environment, after certain conditions are met, there are many places where there are no fish in the water can be used.

For example, the human factor, for example, the harsh environment.

Of course, this knowledge cannot really be used as an answer if certain conditions are met, and if so, it is equivalent to picking a bone in an egg.

Combined with the background story, the boy asks questions and then gives answers, and Confucius is convinced after knowing the answer.

From this point, it can be judged that the answer given by the teenager is more reasonable, more normal, and more common.

But because it is common, it is easy to be ignored, so after knowing the answer, Confucius will suddenly understand.

On this basis, then the answer will be narrowed down to a certain range.

What water is there without fish?

I frowned and thought deeply, and at that moment, a sentence suddenly occurred to me.

When the water is clear, there are no fish!

That's right, there are no fish in the clearest water!

So what kind of water is clear and common?

Stream?

Although the water is clear, there are still fish in it, and the water is not up to the standard of purity.

What kind of water is there besides streams?

Well?

At this thought, my eyelids jumped, yes!

The well water is clear and common, and in ancient times almost every household had it, and it was also drinking water, so naturally there could be no fish in it.

What water is fishless?

There is no fish in the well water.

This answer is in line with the background story, and at the same time, it seems very reasonable, it should be eight or nine from ten.

Just like the tap water that Wang Gang said before, tap water is also drinking water, clear and fish-free, so Wang just said this, but his answer conflicts with the background story, so it cannot be answered as a correct answer.

The well water meets exactly two conditions.

No matter how you think about it, it's tied to the correct answer.

Although the first problem was solved, I was not too excited because there were three more questions below.

What fire has no smoke?

Fireworks and fireworks, there is smoke and fire, there is fire and there is naturally smoke, normally speaking, fire and smoke cannot be separated.

If you put aside the background story, the electric fire that Wang Gang talked about before, that is, the light, is an explanation that is more in line with the correct answer. But the problem is that the backstory is set in ancient times, so naturally the lights and electric fire cannot be used as the answer.

Combined with the answer to the first anagram, then the second answer should also be a more common and easy to ignore thing.

If it's just a household fire, then it's hard to find the right answer. In other words, the answer to this puzzle is not the fire that the ancient people could use.

To be precise, it's the kind that is often seen, but can't be used.

In ancient times, lamps were smokeless, so in ancient times, what kind of fire was similar to lamplight?

After a brief silence, my eyes lit up.

Something similar to lights, but more common in ancient times, isn't it fireflies?

That's right!

The question only asks what fire has no smoke and does not clearly indicate that this fire is a flame in the true sense of the word.

Fireflies can also be called fire, and they are smokeless, which fits the answer to the second question!

What fire has no smoke?

Fireflies are smokeless, that's the answer!

The first two issues have been solved, so the last two remain.

What tree has no leaves, what flower has no branches?

Confucius's answer is that what has no leaves cannot be called a tree, and what has no branches cannot bloom into flowers.

This sentence sounds quite reasonable at first glance, but since the question is asked, there will naturally be a corresponding answer.

With the experience of the first two answers, I can't help but feel a little more confident in the last two questions.

What tree has no leaves?

According to the previous logic, after thinking about it a little, I quickly had the answer in my heart.

Confucius didn't speak, what has no leaves can't be called a tree, but it doesn't mean that all trees have leaves.

The simplest example, autumn leaves, is a law of nature.

In addition, there is another explanation, that is, a dead tree has no leaves, which is a dead tree in layman's terms!

What tree has no leaves?

Dead trees have no leaves!

This...... is the answer to the third question.

Solving three problems in one go, I couldn't help but take a long breath.

It's only half the time now, and three of the four questions have been solved, and only the last one is left, and the speed of progress is a bit surprising to me. But I didn't let up, and after taking a deep breath, I started to solve the fourth anagram.

What flower has no branches?
