Xu Baolong didn't reply, he immediately sat down and carefully read the title on the scroll.

"There was a prime minister who offered the king a very good game of chess, and the king was glad to play it, and said to the prime minister, "I will reward you heavily, and say, what kind of reward do you want?"

The prime minister said without haste, "I hope the king will reward me with the following:

On this board, you can put 1 grain in the 1st box, 2 grains in the 2nd square, 4 grains in the 3rd square, and 8 grains in the 4th square. Place them one by one, multiplying them by 2 each time, and you're good to go by filling the entire 64 squares of the board.

May I ask how many grains of wheat are needed to fill the entire chessboard according to the method that the prime minister said?"

Xu Baolong took a cursory look at this question and felt that it was not very difficult, but after reading it carefully, his brows wrinkled unconsciously.

He picked up pen, ink, paper, and inkstone, and began to write.

One plus two plus four plus eight plus sixteen......

At the beginning, it was relatively simple, but when Xu Baolong added it to the back, his face became more and more ugly.

In the mathematics of the Divine Desolate Land, there are no Arabic numerals, thousands, tens of thousands, millions, tens of millions Xu Baolong can still be added, and as soon as the numbers exceed 100 million, he will be in a hurry.

As his calculations deepened, so did the passage of time.

Xu Baolong's forehead was constantly sweating.

It is impossible to solve this problem in another hour.

"It's been more than half an hour now, but Xu Hanlin's face has become more and more ugly, what's going on?"

"Could it be that the problem of the dog Rong Kingdom has stumped Lord Xu Hanlin?"

"What the hell is the problem of the dog man?"

"If Lord Hanlin can't solve it, then it's dangerous!"

“......”

The people watching below couldn't help but be quite anxious when they saw Xu Baolong sweating profusely on the high platform.

Wang Hengyan, the left minister who was responsible for maintaining this ring match, saw this scene, and his brows were unconsciously slightly furrowed.

What kind of problem are these dogs and thieves giving?

It seems that Xu Baolong can't answer!

What to do?

Could it be that he just watched Xu Baolong die?

Wang Hengyan was quite entangled in his heart......

The incense that could be lit for an hour was finally completely burned out, and a strip of incense ash fell into the incense burner, marking the passage of an hour.

The third prince of Inu Rong looked at Xu Baolong, a cruel smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and he said playfully:

"Lord Xu Hanlin of the Great Jin Kingdom, have you solved the first math problem?"

At this moment, Xu Baolong's back was soaked with sweat, and his face was pale.

He didn't figure it out.

Xu Hanlin just stared at the third prince of Inu Rong and didn't answer him.

"Hahaha, it looks like the bullshit Hanlin of the Jin Kingdom is nothing more than that! Since you didn't answer, then I'm sorry, Prince Ben wants to cut off your head and kick it as a ball!"

The third prince of Inu Rong laughed wildly, stood up, and pressed towards Xu Baolong step by step.

Seeing this, Xu Hanlin pulled out the saber hanging from his waist and wanted to resist.

"Yo Yo Yo, the people of the Jin Kingdom are really untrustworthy, they can't afford to lose, we agreed in advance, and if you can't solve the problem, you will die. ”

The third prince of Inu Rong looked at Wang Hengyan, the left minister below, and sneered: "Lord Zuo Xiang, this is the Hanlin of your Jin Kingdom, it's really too ...... Shame on you, you can't afford to lose!"

"Xu Hanlin, put down the sword, I am willing to lose the bet, don't let everyone see the joke!"

Wang Hengyan said coldly: "A blood sprinkled on the mountains and rivers!"

Although, he also wanted to save the former champion, and the other party was also his protégé, but, in the face of the dignity of the kingdom, he had to make the choice of letting the other party die.

Bang dang!

When Xu Hanlin heard this, the sword in his hand fell to the ground weakly.

Facing Zuo Xiang's drink, he came to his senses.

If he is unwilling to gamble and lose today, he will lose the face of the Jin Kingdom, and at that time, the King of Jin will definitely not let him go.

"Hahaha, lamb to the slaughter, that's right!"

The third prince of Inu Rong walked up to Xu Baolong, smiled strangely, stretched out his palm and patted his cheek.

At this moment, not only Xu Baolong felt extremely humiliated, but also the people of the Jin Kingdom who were watching below were also extremely aggrieved.

Even Wang Hengyan, the left minister who is good at qi cultivation kung fu, couldn't help but clench his fists.

The third prince of Inu Rong pulled out the saber at his waist, the knife flashed, and with a 'poof' sound, Xu Hanlin's head flew out in response, and blood splattered.

Rumble!

The headless corpse sprayed blood and crashed to the ground.

The third prince of Inu Rong glanced at everyone in the audience playfully, raised the scimitar in his hand, and said, "Is there anyone who doesn't want to live and wants to come up and die?"

There was silence and no one spoke.

Everyone stared at the third prince of Inurong, if his eyes could kill, he would have been cut by a thousand knives.

"What's the matter? Are the people of the Jin Kingdom all bad seeds? So greedy for life and afraid of death?"

The third prince jokingly abused.

"I'm coming!" As soon as his words fell, he saw a middle-aged man wearing an official uniform with a long sword hanging from his waist standing up.

This person is Zhang Xuanhe, the waiter of the Ministry of Rites.

Seeing this, Zuo Xiang patted her on the shoulder: "Xuanhe, be careful!"

"Don't worry, Lord Zuo, I will definitely defeat these canine maniacs!" Zhang Xuan said.

After speaking, he strode towards the high platform.

Zhang Xuanhe is also quite talented, and he was also a champion back then, although he is nearly middle-aged, but his blood is not cold.

"Come on, Zhang Shilang!"

"Zhang Shilang fights the arrogance of the dog Rong!"

The onlookers below waved their fists and shouted angrily, cheering for Zhang Xuanhe.

"Yo hehe, another one came up to die!" Seeing this, the third prince of Inu Rong raised the scimitar in his hand and said with a sarcastic face: "This prince's scimitar is going to have a good meal today!"

"Hmph, there hasn't been a comparison yet, it's not certain who wins and who loses!" Zhang Xuanhe, who walked to the high platform, said coldly.

The third prince smiled: "The one who loses must be you, and the one who dies must also be you!"

Zhang Xuanhe no longer had a strong tongue with the other party, walked to the chair where Xu Baolong had sat and sat down, picked up the scroll and looked at the math problem.

He didn't dare to slack off in the slightest, and after reading it carefully, he picked up the brush and began to count.

The third prince of Inurong sat aside, crossed Erlang's legs, and drank wine.

......

Jin Palace, inside the prison.

"Ling Xiao, I've come to see you!" a female voice sounded.

Chen Lingxiao, who was originally reading with his eyes closed, heard this, opened his eyes, and saw Xue Bing'er walking in with a basket.

"Ling Xiao, this is a snack from the full moon building, I see that you don't have anything to eat in this prison, so I specially got some for you!"

Xue Bing'er said, took out the snacks in the basket and placed them on the table.

"Thank you!" Chen Lingxiao said curiously: "Is there anything big happening outside?"

"The dog is in the ring in the central square...... Not long ago, the third prince of Inu Rong slaughtered one of my Hanlin of the Great Jin!

If I had the talent to be the champion, I would have raised the whip and compared it to the dog prince, and whipped him to death!"

Xue Bing'er told the other party about the ring outside, and when she talked about the dog envoy, she also hated it.

"Ding! Congratulations to the host for triggering the side quest 3: answer two difficult questions, defeat the Dog Emissary, and complete this subquest to reward 1000 system coins.

In addition, the sub-task of 'Hanging Taixue' will also be completed, and he will become the most dazzling cultural star of Taixue!"

As soon as Xue Bing'er's words fell, a cold system voice sounded in Chen Lingxiao's mind.
