Chapter 134: Seven Years of Unsolved Mystery

For a while, the scene was even more uncontrollable, and everyone was bowing to the "golden-faced man" on the stage, and the voices of thanks came one after another.

"Quiet! Everyone, be quiet! The principal roared again, barely shaking the scene.

"Everyone, be quiet! Hear me first! In the past, our nobles personally sent a reward and then left, but this year is different, our nobles are back again, and they want to stay and have fun with everyone! ”

"Oh-" A cheer drowned out his voice again.

The person in charge rubbed his ears and roared again: "Quiet! Everyone, be quiet! This year, although there is a reward, it is slightly different from the rules of previous years! Our nobleman temporarily changed his mind, and this year he wanted to ask a tourist to come up and answer the riddle that no one had been able to solve in the past seven years! ”

"Huh? What the? ”

"Wouldn't it? The most difficult, the riddle that no one has been able to solve for seven years? ”

"How is this possible? I haven't had a capable person for seven years, can I solve it this year? ”

Seeing that everyone was talking, the person in charge suppressed again: "Quiet yelling!! Don't be impatient, big guy! Listen to me, although the rules are different this year, it is much easier to get a reward than in previous years! This year, as long as the tourists ordered by our nobles answer the lantern riddles that have not been solved for seven years, then everyone does not have to think about guessing the riddles of these ninety-nine lanterns this year, but as long as they grab it, they can go to receive the reward! ”

"Huh?? What the?? Are you sure? ”

The people cheered for a while, and suddenly realized that this was easy to say, but in fact, it was the biggest pit. You know, the mystery that has not been solved for seven years can be solved this year, the person who ordered it by the nobles himself? Thinking like this, the cheers of the people also subsided.

Someone asked, "Then if the nobles ordered the tourists can't solve the mystery of the seven years?" Wouldn't it be that we big guys won't be rewarded? ”

"That's right! That's it—"

"yes—"

The principal once again struck the gong around the scene: "Everyone, don't be impatient!" Nobles come every year and reward everyone with their own financial resources, how can they make everyone suffer? Listen up, everyone! This year, if the nobles order the tourists correctly, whoever grabs the 99 lanterns will be rewarded with five gold leaves! If this tourist doesn't answer correctly, each of the 99 lanterns can enjoy two gold leaves! ”

The scene froze for a moment, and then erupted into a flood of cheers and cheers. Can you not cheer? In previous years, you had to squeeze your head to catch a lamp on the lampstand, and you had to guess the riddle correctly to get the reward. And now, by this pro-order tourist to solve the mystery that has not been solved for seven years, if the solution is correct, five gold leaves per person, it is a good thing that ordinary people will never see in their lives! Taking a step back, that is, the tourist has a wrong solution or can't solve it, so those who grab the lanterns can get two gold leaves per person without answering, which is also something that ordinary people can barely change for half of their lives.

Everyone has sorted out the gains and losses, and no matter how they don't lose, so what are they waiting for? There was another round of cheers on the spot!

The person in charge said in a loud voice: "Next, please ask our nobles to come forward and order people!" ”

Amid thunderous applause, the man in the golden mask on the menorah slowly stood up, came to the edge of the menorah, and scanned the crowd through the mask's eyeholes, and soon, his gaze settled, and then he raised his hand to the crowd.

In an instant, countless eyes looked at Yao Duran in unison.

Yao Duran: "??? "It all depends on what she does.

When the person in charge saw that the golden-faced nobleman had ordered it, he took a look and immediately smiled at Yao Dui: "Congratulations to this girl!" Yes, yes! It's you. Come, will you invite this girl to come on stage? ”

Yao Duran was still stunned.

But the surroundings began to make noise.

"What a girl! You're ready to solve this riddle! The villains are old and young, so they all point to your five golden leaves to live! ”

"Yes, girl, you have to think before you answer! Thank you for your kindness! ”

Fuquan shouted with them: "What are you yelling about? First of all, I gave this mountain of pressure to my wife, and my wife was nervous, can it work? Besides, people's hearts are not enough to swallow elephants, even if you answered the lantern riddle correctly in previous years, it was only a gold leaf, and even if my wife didn't answer correctly this year, you grabbed the lamp and there were two gold leaves! What are you shouting here? Shout again, I'll bring my wife back! ”

"Oh, it turns out that this noble man is not a girl, but a lady. Hey, hey, okay, don't worry about this little student, let's not talk about it, you can persuade Mrs. and let her feel relieved. ”

There was a lot of discussion below, and the person in charge said: "Everyone is quiet, now, let's invite this lady to the stage." ”

"Madam, don't be stunned, go quickly." Biya reminded in a whisper, Yao Duran came back to her senses and looked at the man on the lampstand, the man's dark eyes seemed to be looking at her, but he never spoke, only waited patiently.

Surrounded by a pair of hopeful eyes, Yao Duran rode the tiger with difficulty, and slowly raised his steps. The crowd in front of them consciously separated a road, and Yao Duran walked smoothly, lifted her skirt and went up five steps to the lampstand. For a moment, I only felt that I was in the limelight, and I couldn't help but rejoice that this grimace mask was really bought right.

The man slowly returned to his seat.

The principal and Yan Yue said, "This lady, are you ready?" ”

Yao Duran was helpless, and said: "Then please solve the mystery, it's just that the folk women are shallow in learning, if you answer wrong, I hope you don't laugh, but also forgive." ”

Fuquan shouted at her from the audience: "Madam! Don't be nervous! Ignore what they do! Don't be ashamed if you get it wrong! After all, no one has been able to solve the riddle for seven years! ”

Yao Duran was relieved and said to the person in charge, "Then, please solve the mystery." ”

The principal smiled and nodded, then coughed dryly twice, cleared his throat, and then said: "Please listen to the riddle - it is said that in ancient times, there was a mediocre emperor who liked to play a game of drawing lots with death row prisoners, that is, putting two paper balls with 'life' and 'death' written on them in a box for the prisoners to draw lots, if the prisoners caught the paper balls with the word 'life' written on them, the emperor would spare their lives, otherwise they would definitely die." But one day, in order to exclude dissidents from the court, a courtier spoke to the emperor and framed the prime minister of the court for rebellion. In a fit of rage, the emperor threw the prime minister into prison and prepared to let the prime minister catch the life and death lot on the second day. It's just that the courtier who framed him had secretly made his hands and feet in the box where the lot was drawn, and the word 'death' was written on the two paper balls inside, but there was no word for 'life'. Therefore, no matter which one the prime minister catches, it is a dead end. The Prime Minister's friend secretly informed the Prime Minister of the matter on the pretext of visiting the prison. So how did the prime minister survive the lot draw on the second day? ”

The scene was silent, and the people in the audience quietly discussed, turning heads and ears, but everyone shook their heads, and no one could understand. After a stalemate for a while, everyone simply didn't bother to pay attention, and looked at Yao Duran on the stage.

Yao Duran felt like she was going to be looked through by their gaze. Turning to the principal, he said, "This is the riddle that has not been solved for seven years?" ”

The person in charge said: "Yes, yes, this riddle is still made by our nobleman himself, and the nobleman also promised that if he can solve this riddle, there will be a big prize!" It's only been seven years, and the person you were waiting for has never appeared. ”

Yao Duran turned his head to look at the golden-faced man sitting leisurely behind him, and when the man saw her looking, the corners of his lips raised slightly and seemed to smile, and he immediately raised his hand and made a 'please' gesture.

Yao Duran turned back, smiled, and said: "Although I don't know what the real answer to this riddle is, if I am the prime minister, when I catch the life and death lot, I will quickly eat the paper ball that I caught, and the remaining paper ball in the box is also a 'death' word, then it proves that the paper ball I ate has the word 'life' written on it, so there is still life." Naturally, if the emperor angrily asks me why I ate the paper ball, I will say that Weichen loves the monarch and respects the monarch, whether it is life or death, it is given to Weichen by His Majesty, and Weichen eats it without looking at it, in order to show his loyalty and obedience. ”

The words fell, and the scene fell silent for a while. Everyone in the audience went through her answer and found that it was reasonable. Everyone came back to their senses and suddenly realized, and then they exchanged heads and ears for a while, and finally asked gossip.

"Dare to ask the nobleman, is this answer correct?"

"yes, is that right?"

"That's right, if even this answer is wrong, then I guess this riddle will not be solved at all!"

When the scene was noisy, there was a sudden burst of slow applause, "Pap-Pa-Pa--" and in an orderly manner.

Yao Duran looked back at the sound and saw that it was the golden-faced man behind him clapping. Yao Duran's heart was relieved.

Naturally, when everyone in the audience saw the noble man applauding, a passion surged into their brains. If he can applaud, it means that the lady on the stage has the right understanding.

"Papapapa-" For a while, there was thunderous applause between heaven and earth. The people clapped their hands and cheered with their mouths, and they were boiling.

"Unravel, unravel, unravel—"

"The nobleman's seven-year unsolved mystery has finally been solved—"

"Great—this lady is also our nobleman—lady is smart—lady is witty—"

The person in charge also smiled, looking at Yao Duran's eyes were different, with admiration and inquiry, he praised sincerely: "This lady, you are really a female Zhuge in the middle!" The villain admires, admires! ”

Yao Duran smiled back at him, then looked at the golden-faced man behind him and asked, "Nobleman, I don't know what the woman said, can it be the answer?" ”

The golden-faced man nodded at her and gave her a thumbs up.

There was another cheer from the audience! Everyone was gearing up to wait for the sound of the gong, and they were going to rush up to grab the five gold leaves for the lanterns. However, the gong in the principal's hand still did not move, and walked to the golden-faced man behind him, leaned over and listened to what the man commanded. Seeing this, Yao Duran said in his heart that he was not dumb.

In everyone's anticipation, the person in charge finally came back after listening to the instructions, but he still didn't knock the gong to grab it, but said to Yao Duran: "This lady, our noble people admire your intelligence very much, and I want to make friends with you for the right knowledge." Right now, our nobles want to invite you to find an elegant place to talk, I don't know what Mrs. thinks? ”
