SAO, 73rd floor.

"Asuna, here!"

Asuna looked at Xu Qingsheng's figure in front of her, smiled knowingly, and followed.

"It should be here!" Xu Qingsheng took the map, looked at a small wooden house in front of him, and said with some uncertainty.

"I didn't expect you to know the way!" Asuna chuckled, as if she had discovered something magical.

Xu Qingsheng scratched his head in embarrassment: "I just don't have a good sense of direction." ”

"Sophistry~" Asuna smiled slyly.

"Road idiot, road idiot, people don't laugh at you!" As she spoke, Asuna covered her mouth and made a snickering expression.

"And said he didn't laugh at me! Begging! ”

"Come on! Come after me! After speaking, Asuna trotted forward, Xu Qingsheng chased after him unhurriedly, and the two of them had a lot of fun.

After making trouble for a while, Asuna was caught up by Xu Qingsheng and held in his arms as punishment.

"By the way, that's where we're looking for it, right?" Finally, Asuna remembered the purpose of their trip—the wooden house.

Xu Qingsheng and Asuna did not choose to stay on the 18th floor all the time. On vacation, you naturally have to walk around and play everywhere. SAO is so big, although I have been to every floor, but if I really want to say that it is fun, I still haven't done it, and everyone is still leveling up in the maze area. Taking advantage of this opportunity, Xu Qingsheng also wanted to take Asuna around the entire SAO.

As for the map in Xu Qingsheng's hand, he bought it from other players on the previous floor.

The map is very simple, it is the coordinates of a cabin, and according to the player, there is a mysterious NPC in the cabin that will ask the player a question, and if he answers, there will be a mysterious gift. However, after many attempts, the player was not able to get the gift. According to him, the questions raised by the NPCs were not something he could answer at all, and even if he asked others, he would not know the answers, and finally had to sell the coordinates there.

Xu Qingsheng thought this was very interesting, and bought the coordinates here at a high price, so he appeared here with Asuna.

The two men came to the hut and found that the door was closed.

didn't rush up to push the door open, Xu Qingsheng knocked lightly on the door: "Is anyone there?" ”

"Please come in, the door is unlocked, just push it open." An old voice came out of the wooden house, Xu Qingsheng gently pushed the door, and found that the door was indeed unlocked, so he pushed the door open and walked into the room with Asuna.

The room was a little dim, Xu Qingsheng quickly looked around, the room was not big, there was a small square table in the middle, and there was a chessboard on the table, Xu Qingsheng looked at it carefully, it seemed to be Go? However, Xu Qingsheng doesn't know much about Go. There was a bed at the end of the room, and there was a person lying on the bed, probably the person who spoke out before, but because the room was dim and far away, Xu Qingsheng couldn't see the person's appearance clearly.

"Two guests are welcome. Can you talk closer, the old man is not in good health, and he can't entertain the guests well. Although his voice was old, he seemed full of energy, and he couldn't hear that he was not in good health.

The two of them walked into the bedside when they heard this.

On the bed, there is an old man with a white beard, and the folds on his face tell the traces of time. The old man lay quietly on the bed, looked at the two of them slightly, and showed a kind smile.

Xu Qingsheng was the first to speak: "Old man, we heard from other people——"

"I already know the general meaning, so let me explain it in detail."

The old man said slowly: "The old man's name is: Rotten Wood. Luther. Amsterdam. Dilbergasso. Kalukimuya. Søren Best. Since the name is too long, you can call me Kuchiki. ”

First introduced his magical name, Rotten Wood continued: "Due to physical reasons, the old man can only lie here alone, since you can come here, even if you have a fate with the old man, the old man wants to give you a small gift." ”

Probably because he didn't speak for a long time, Kuchiki paused for a while after finishing speaking, and took a break.

Xu Qingsheng and Asuna were not in a hurry, so they stood by the bed and waited quietly.

After resting for a while, Kuchiki looked at the two of them again, this time with a hint of appreciation in his eyes. Today's young people are impetuous, and there are not many people who are willing to listen to him. Especially some guys called players who have appeared recently, their patience is even worse, they only care about what rewards they can get from themselves, and they never know how to understand the old man's body.

"But the old man has set up some small questions, as long as you can answer any of them, I will give them a gift. Would you like to give it a try? ”

Hearing this, Xu Qingsheng understood that this was a hidden easter egg. The reason why it is said to be a hidden easter egg, Xu Qingsheng feels that from the beginning of coming in, until now, the rotten wood has been testing them, if the rotten wood is a little dissatisfied, I am afraid there will be no later part.

"We're willing to give it a try."

Since he came, he naturally wanted to get a reward, so Xu Qingsheng was not hypocritical, and said it directly and generously.

Kuchimu nodded, and said slowly: "The topic is like this: I randomly pick two numbers from 2-99, tell my eldest disciple the sum of these two numbers, and tell my second disciple the product of the two numbers, and the two of them don't know the numbers obtained by the other party." ”

Hearing this, Xu Qingsheng's brows furrowed slightly, and he had a faint sense of familiarity, but he didn't make a sound, but continued to listen.

Kuchiki continued, "The next day, my eldest disciple said to the second disciple, 'Although I don't know what these two numbers are, I'm sure you don't either. When the second disciple heard this, he replied, "I didn't know what it was, but as soon as you say that, I will know!" When the eldest disciple heard this, he suddenly realized: "Then now I also know!" ’”

Saying this, Kuchiki smiled, as if he was proud of the intelligence of his two disciples.

"So, do the two guests know what those two numbers are?"

After listening to the question completely, Xu Qingsheng immediately knew why it felt familiar.

He's seen this before! Isn't this the problem that Guiguzi gave to Sun Bin and Pang Juan!

Asuna on the side has turned into mosquito coil eyes. What I don't know, you don't know, you don't know, I know, you know, I know, Asuna is completely confused by the question, let alone know the answer.

Kuchiki took in the reactions of the two, and didn't urge, just waited with a smile.

Xu Qingsheng pretended to think hard, but in fact, his mind was not on solving the problem at all. After all, he already knew the answer, and if he didn't think it would be too outrageous to say the answer directly, he wanted to tell the dead wood directly what the answer was.

After a while, Xu Qingsheng felt that it was almost over, and said confidently: "I know the answer!" ”
