Gollum's expression suddenly became panicked.

…… No hinges, no keys, no lids, but there's a treasure trove of gold inside?

How can there be such a thing in this world?

Grunt began to scratch his ears and cheeks.

Obviously, this riddle is quite difficult.

It was with this riddle that Bilbo became a recognized smart man in the Shire.

Bilbo looked at Gollum with a little pride, "Guess well, guess slowly." ”

Gollum turned his back and muttered to himself as he gestured, "Box? Don't have a lid? A treasure trove of gold? ”

Bilbo laughed, "How's that?" Did you guess it? ”

Gollum bared his teeth at Bilbo, "Shut up, nasty, don't try to influence my train of thought!" Box, no lid, gold treasure ......"

The riddle itself is not difficult, but the riddle is so clever that the clues it provides are all trapped, and they can easily be misled in other directions.

But once the mystery is revealed, it will make people suddenly realize and praise it.

Bilbo was very proud.

He was about to declare himself victorious when he heard Gollum yell, "Give us one more chance!" Give us another chance! ”

His voice was full of pain and anxiety, and Bilbo's heart softened.

So, he decides to give Gollum a little more time.

Gollum slammed his head hard against the rock, "Box! Golden Treasure! Box! Gold...... Ah wait! I know! Be...... Egg! That's right, it's eggs! Eggs don't have a lid, and the golden treasure hidden inside is the yolk! Aha! Bilbo Baggins! I guessed that no! ”

Bilbo sighed faintly, "Well, you guessed it, it's an egg." ”

Gollum laughed happily, "Hahaha, we guessed right!" We win, we can eat you! Speaking of eggs, let's think of your head, which should be as delicious as egg yolk, right? We remember that our grandmother used to teach us how to use our mouths to suck egg liquid...... Wait, do we have grandma? Our grandma? Yes, we should have grandma, but why can't we remember anything? No! Don't say these useless! We're going to eat Bilbo Baggins first! ”

Bilbo hurriedly said, "Wait, you haven't solved the mystery yet!" If I can't guess your riddle, then I'll lose! ”

"Okay, okay!" Gollum said angrily, "Let me come up with a riddle that you will never guess!" There is such a thing, it can devour everything, trees, wild beasts, birds, flowers, and of course much more, it can gnaw at iron, it can bite steel, it can grind solid stone into powder, and it can turn wild grass into food—answer us, what is it? ”

Bilbo was stunned, "The thing that devours everything? ”

This riddle is really difficult, although there are a lot of clues given, but in fact, it is useless, and the only thing that is really useful is one sentence - that is, this kind of thing can swallow everything.

What can devour everything?

Monsters?

No, there are many monsters and monsters in Middle-earth, but none of them can devour everything.

You can't think of monsters, you should think differently.

Bilbo concentrated, but Gollum sneered, "How's that?" Can't answer it, can you? If you can't answer, you don't need to answer, just make me food with peace of mind! Hahaha! ”

Bilbo was so annoyed by the grunting sound that he couldn't concentrate at all, "Please give me some time, I gave you time just now!" ”

Gollum grinned, "Bilbo Baggins, you're running out of time, tick, tick......"

Gollum deliberately simulates the sound of a clock around Bilbo in order to distract Bilbo's thoughts.

Bilbo felt like his head was going to explode, his time was really running out, if he couldn't answer it again...... Wait a minute!

Running out of time?

Time?

Right! Time! Time swallows everything!

Time can devour everything, and it can gnaw at iron and bite steel!

That's right, that's it!

Gollum smirked, "How's that?" Can't answer it, can you? So, you-"

As soon as Gollum was about to announce, Bilbo confidently said, "The answer is, time!" Thanks for the tip you just gave me! ”

"You idiot!" Gollum yelled at herself.

Then, he said extremely timidly: "We didn't expect that he could really answer!" He's so smart! ”

Bilbo breathed a sigh of relief, "We were also tied in the second game, so you can't eat me, now let's start the third game!" ”

"I'm fed up with endless quizzes!" Even if it's a draw in the third game, I'm going to eat you! That's the last question! Ask! One last question! ”

Bilbo was a little panicked suddenly, the riddle of the egg I asked just now can be regarded as his best riddle, and now it is his turn to solve the problem, he is a little flustered for a while.

If this riddle doesn't make Gollum unable to answer, then Gollum will eat him, and of course he can use a bee sting to protect himself, but in that case, Gollum will never tell him the way out.

When there is a lot of pressure, it is easy to play abnormally.

Bilbo is one of those people.

That's why he admires "Diedi" very much, if Diedi is here, he will definitely not panic.

Of course, if Diedi was really here, I'm afraid he would have beaten Gollum to the point of crying dad and mother.

Gollum roared loudly, "Hurry up and ask me questions!" Hurry up! ”

Bilbo subconsciously touched his pocket, and then had an idea: "What's in my pocket?" ”

Gollum was stunned, "What? ”

Bilbo said in a deep voice, "What's in my pocket?" ”

Gollum shook his head and said, "No, it's not a riddle!" ”

Bilbo laughed, "What you just said, let me ask you a question." ”

"Nope! It's not fair! How do I know what's in your pocket! Gollum roared angrily.

Bilbo shrugged his shoulders, "I don't care, you asked me to ask the last question, and now that I do, if you can answer it, then you can eat me, but if you can't answer it, then you have to tell me where the way out is!" ”

Gollum said angrily, "It's not fair, it's not fair!" You've got to give me three chances! ”

Bilbo said, "Yes, no problem, then I'll let you guess three times." ”

Gollum scratched her head restlessly, her bulging head staring straight at the pocket on Bilbo's waistcoat, trying to judge by the shape of the pocket.

Gollum thought for a moment and said loudly, "Hand! It's the hand! ”

Bilbo held his hand up, "No, it's not a hand, it's not a hand in my pocket!" ”

Gollum pounded the ground angrily.

Bilbo said, "You've wasted a chance! You have two more times! ”

Gollum said angrily, "I know! I know! Don't rush me! ”
