Chapter 294: Eating

People have to eat when they are hungry, and as long as they have money, food is generally not a problem.

But today's talents were suddenly stumped by the meal at noon, because the third judge, Cheng Xiao, gave everyone a question related to eating.

The people take food as the sky, so no matter when, eating is a big problem, although Cheng Xiao was the champion of the year, and now he is the prince's teacher, but he also wants to eat.

At noon, the sun was scorching outside, and many people who watched the excitement couldn't stand it and gradually dispersed, and many of the talented people in the music workshop were also hungry, but without the consent of those judges, they really didn't dare to raise the issue of eating.

Cheng Xiao stood up at this time, after he stood up, he touched his beard, and then said: "Presumably you are all hungry, do you want to eat?" ”

This sentence is no different from nonsense, since you know that everyone is hungry, what else do you ask, is there someone who is so stupid that they don't want to eat when they are hungry?

Everyone nodded yes again and again, but at this time, Cheng Xiao suddenly smiled and said: "If you want to eat, it's okay, but you have to answer the question first, whoever answers it, advances and eats in Lefang, if you can't answer, you have to leave, after leaving, you can eat as much as you want to eat those things outside." ”

Everyone was stunned, but they couldn't say anything, so they had to urge Cheng Xiao to hurry up and solve the question.

Cheng Xiao smiled, and then ordered someone to bring a very long and wide wooden board, and after the wooden board was placed on the table in front, Cheng Xiao said to everyone: "You all come over and have a look." ”

Everyone was puzzled, after hearing Cheng Xiao's words, they rushed up, but when they rushed up to see, they were even more puzzled, there was nothing on the board, they really didn't understand, what Cheng Xiao asked them to see.

The planks are smooth and there is really nothing on them.

And just when everyone was puzzled, Cheng Xiao pointed to the wooden board and said, "Here, there is a hole." ”

When everyone heard this, they finally found that there was really a hole on the wooden board, but the hole was very small, but it was very deep, almost as deep as a person's arm, and everyone looked at each other, still not understanding what Cheng Xiao meant.

Su Wuming stood outside the crowd, a slight smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, he didn't know what Cheng Xiao was going to do, but he felt that Cheng Xiao's question must be very interesting, otherwise he wouldn't be like this.

Sure enough, just when everyone was puzzled and asked, Cheng Xiao suddenly took a grain of rice from the hands of the guards behind him, it was a very small grain, he threw the grain of rice into the small hole in the wooden board, and then said to everyone: "This third question is to ask everyone to find a way to get the rice out of the hole, but there are a few points that need to be said, first of all, you can't turn the wooden board out and pour it up, and secondly, you can't dig the hole bigger, in addition, you can use any method you think of, and there is only one purpose, That is to take out the rice from the hole, this is just a sample, and everyone will give you a piece of this plank later. ”

After Cheng Xiao finished speaking, everyone suddenly realized, and after understanding, everyone didn't worry much, they thought that although it was difficult, it was not difficult for them, so after listening to Cheng Xiao's words, they each returned to their seats and waited.

After a while, some of the guards brought the planks and put a piece on each person's table, and everyone looked at each other, thinking about how to get the rice out of the wooden hole.

After everyone saw the plank, they began to use their own methods, and at this time, Su Wuming smiled indifferently, this kind of problem is really easy for him, if he wants to use the rice grains, he has more than a dozen methods, however, Su Wuming doesn't want to be in such a hurry, if he uses his own method, others will definitely follow suit, so he loses bias.

Su Wuming was very leisurely to observe other people's methods, some people thought of irrigating with water, pouring water into the hole, if the rice grains floated out, then he could get the rice out, but unfortunately, the density of the rice grains was greater than that of water, and the grains of rice were not bitten by insects, so when the water rushed into the hole, the rice grains were still sinking into the grains of rice, and they were almost immobile.

After the cave was filled with water, it became a big problem to get the water out, because the wooden planks were not allowed to be turned upside down, so now they had to endure the water in the cave if they wanted to get the rice out.

In addition to this method, some people choose to blow the wind, the rice grains are very small, and they move when they blow, if the wind is strong enough, the rice grains may also come out, but the premise is that the wind is strong enough, what is the maximum wind power that people in this era can use, I am afraid that they can only blow with their mouths and fan with a fan, right?

Using the wind to blow this method obviously has little effect.

Of course, in addition to the wind, there are also smart people, they find a thin wire, or other things that are easy to deform and have a certain hardness, they pinch a circle underneath, this circle is not big, not small, just enough to put a grain of rice, they slowly go down that thing into the hole, and then salvage, although it may fail, but the chance of success is much greater than irrigating it with water and blowing it with wind.

This method has a high success rate, therefore, the first person to take out the rice grains is the person who came up with this method, and this person is Gao Chen, after Gao Chen took out the rice grains, he was immediately led to eat by the guards, and when others saw that this method could take out the rice grains, they had to follow suit, but at this time, Cheng Xiao suddenly stood up and said: "Everyone is a smart person, why do you need to learn the methods of others, which makes people laugh?" ”

The rules do not stipulate that they cannot be emulated, but they are all scholars, they love face the most, and they are also the most arrogant.

Therefore, although the method is available, most people still choose to give up the method used by Gao Chen, of course, it is not excluded that some faceless people are not excluded, their goal is only to succeed, as for what method is used on the way, they don't care, so that they still use the method used by others to compete, but although they have advanced, their kind of behavior falls in the eyes of the judges, but it is a kind of disdain and disgust.

Everyone is trying to figure out a way, in addition to Gao Chen's one, there are also people who have come up with other methods, such as the Yuan Zhongwen, and came up with a very interesting method, he first dripped wax into the hole, and after the wax condensed, then rooted a very thin wooden stick into it, of course, the bottom end of the wooden board was dug into a groove, so that the wax oil mixed with rice grains was stained on the wooden stick, and the wooden stick was taken out, and the rice grains were taken out.

If this method is directly used with a wooden stick, there is also a chance of success, as long as the rice grains are sandwiched into the grooves of the wooden sticks, but the probability of success is very small.

One by one, the people who came up with the solution left, and there were only a dozen people left in the whole music room, and a few of them were still full of water in the plank cave, and they were looking at the water-filled thing.

At this time, Su Wuming felt that the time was almost up, so he whispered a few words to the guard beside him, and after listening to it, the guard was quite puzzled, but he still hurriedly went out, because Su Wuming has a special identity and is famous, so there are many people who pay attention to him, originally saw that Su Wuming has not moved, thinking that Su Wuming can't think of any way, for this reason some people are disappointed and some people gloat, but when they saw Su Wuming finally acted, they couldn't help but show a trace of curiosity, they really wanted to see, What can Su Wuming come up with?

After a while, the guards who went out rushed back, and in the hands of the guards, there was a small box, after the guard handed the box to Su Wuming, Su Wuming bowed slightly, and then opened the box, only to see that after the box was opened, several big ants suddenly crawled out of it.

After the sting, many insects came out, and now it is spring and early summer, and there are even more ants, but the people nearby don't understand very much, what does Su Wuming do with ants?

The corners of Su Wuming's mouth smiled faintly, and then drove those ants into that small hole, to get the rice grains out, there are many ways, things that are difficult for manpower, it is better to take advantage of the situation, what Su Wuming has to do is to borrow the momentum, borrow the potential of the ants.

After those ants crawled in, some climbed out again, and some continued to walk inside, Su Wuming sat aside and was not in a hurry, as long as an ant found that rice grain, he had a chance of winning.

Moreover, even if these ants are not so obedient, he still has many ways to get the rice grains out, and the reason why he chose this method is because this method is the easiest and most interesting.

Many people watched Su Wuming's every move with wide eyes, although Su Wuming didn't do anything at all, he just looked at the small hole with a calm expression, and from time to time there were ants crawling out, but they didn't bring out the grain of rice, and many people were already disappointed, but at this time, an ant bit the grain of rice and suddenly appeared at the mouth of the hole, and the ant looked around, and then quickly got out of the hole.

The rice grains have come out, Su Wuming smiled indifferently, bowed his hand slightly to the people present, and then walked towards the place to eat.

Everyone sighed, and seeing that there were fewer and fewer people around them, they couldn't help but get anxious.

After this round of competition, more than 20 people were shortlisted, and among these more than 20 people, three or four used the methods used by others, and one or two people were very clumsy, but luckily, they still got the rice grains out, and one person was a dead horse as a live horse doctor, and he ran into it blindly.

Of course, there was also a person who poured water into the cave, but then the grain of rice was soaked in water, and finally the grain of rice slowly floated up.

Of course, the others were not so lucky, and a few people were full of hope when they saw that the watered grain of rice had floated up on its own, but they waited left and right, and they did not wait for the grain of rice to float up until the time was over.
