Chapter Ninety-Nine: The Test of the Third Mountain

After a while, those who wanted to make a move on Lu Ming consciously jumped from the second mountain, for fear of being crushed by Lu Mingwen's courage and leaving the book mountain. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

"Cocoon yourself, you can't blame others!"

Lu Ming's face was as usual, and he began to start from the foot of the second mountain and move towards the third mountain.

"The second mountain test counts, thirty steps and one question. ”

"I have a pot of wine, and I'm walking with You Chun.

Double the store, and drink a bucket with friends.

The shopkeeper passed through three places, and there was no wine in the pot.

By asking how much wine is in this pot. ”

Counting is one of the six arts of a gentleman, and it is also a compulsory course, with a wide range of uses.

"It's a math problem, and if it were someone else, I would have racked my brains for a long time, but for me, ......"

Lu Ming smiled slightly and sorted out his ideas for solving the problem.

"Set the original wine x bucket in the pot, according to the equation of the title: 2[2(2x-1)-1]-1=0. ”

Lu Ming calculated, and finally came up with an answer of 7/8 (bucket).

"Go!", the old man said.

Lu Ming smiled confidently and continued to move forward.

"There is a lot of chaos among the drinkers, and the thin wine is thick and mellow.

A bottle of good wine is drunk by three guests, and a thin wine is drunk by three bottles.

Nineteen and thirty-three guests drank together.

Let me ask Gao Ming to be a scholar, how much alcohol does he drink?"

The title of this poem is to the effect that a good bottle of wine can get drunk on three guests; Three bottles of thin wine can get drunk on a guest. If thirty-three guests were drunk, they drank a total of nineteen bottles. Just ask: How many bottles of good wine and thin wine are there?

Lu Ming still used the method of the previous problem and began to solve the problem.

"Set the good wine for x and the thin wine for y;

x+y=19

3x+1/3y=33

x=10

y=9”

"Answer: Ten bottles of good wine, nine bottles of thin wine. ”

After answering, move on and encounter another question.

"Three hundred and sixty-one tanks, let Jun divide them into several ships.

What is the total number of boats, and how many tanks are loaded in each ship.

It is not allowed to have more than one boat, and it is not allowed to have one tank less than one boat.

Q: How many cylinders does each boat load, and how many boats go across the river?"

The meaning of the poem is: 361 tanks must be loaded in a boat, and the number of tanks in each ship must be equal, and the number of tanks in each ship must be equal to the number of tanks in each ship. Find the number of boats and the number of cylinders per ship.

This problem actually asks us to divide the 361 cylinders into several parts, and require that the number of each part be equal to the total number of parts, which only needs to decompose the prime factor of this 361.

Because: 361 = 19Γ—19.

Lu Ming had just finished answering, when suddenly a spirit was stirred all over his body, and a powerful talent poured into the top of his head.

"Talent empowerment?"

Lu Ming was overjoyed, but then his face changed greatly: "No! This is not talent empowerment! This is ...... Ahh

A feeling of pain arose in his mind, and Lu Ming also showed a painful look on his face, feeling as if his memory was about to be dug up.

The reader in the back suddenly felt strange, "Huh, what's the matter with the person in front?"

"Haha...... That guy actually dared to cheat in the book mountain, and was questioned by the saint, who is using supernatural powers to find evidence of his cheating, just like searching for memory!"

"Miserable, isn't that saint able to peek into everyone's mind?"

"That's not true, a saint is a saint after all, it is impossible to take the opportunity to observe personal privacy, only search for evidence of his cheating!"

"I see!"

After another moment, Lu Ming felt a mysterious power descending, and the pain in his mind suddenly swept away, becoming extremely comfortable, and his face returned to normal.

After a long time, the old man Shushan said: "Your solution idea is incredible, even the old man took a long time to be able to initially understand, who taught you this method?"

"It was taught by an old gentleman, but the old gentleman has died. ”

Lu Ming replied, a little worried that the old man of Shushan would see that he was lying.

However, it turned out that he was overly concerned, and the old man did not observe any privacy about him other than his solution ideas.

"I see, it's the old man who misunderstood you, in order to apologize, you don't have to answer the next two questions, you can go directly to the third mountain. ”

"Thank you, old man!"

Lu Ming's face was overjoyed, and he walked directly towards the second mountain.

"What's going on? That kid is unharmed, how is this possible? Does the old man think he didn't cheat?"

"This ...... I don't know! You see, how did he walk so many steps in one breath and go straight up the third mountain?"

"You ask me, who do I ask? I don't know what the hell is going on!"

"Weird!

The readers in the back looked at each other in shock.

After Lu Ming arrived at the third mountain, he looked back at the readers on the second mountain and found that they were still staying at the place where the first question or the second question was.

This kind of exam question is really very difficult for them to do, and more than eighty percent of the people are directly brushed off, and there are very few people who can pass the second mountain.

After all, their logical thinking is different from Lu Ming's.

"Are you ready for the test of the third mountain?", the old man asked.

"Always be ready. Lu Ming replied.

"Your literary talent is indeed outstanding, but Shushan not only tests your talents, but also tests the minds of readers, now, let me see what kind of reader you are. ”

"Sir, what do you mean by this?", Lu Ming suddenly didn't understand.

"I'm going to erase a small part of your memory for the time being, and show your heart in another form, whether or not you can pass through the third mountain depends entirely on your heart. ”

As soon as the old man Shushan's voice fell, the environment in front of him suddenly fluctuated, and the next moment, Lu Ming suddenly felt that his brain had been beaten and he fainted.

When Lu Ming woke up, he was already in the holy temple of the Jade Dragon Mansion.

"Is the book mountain over?"

Lu Ming scratched his head, and found that he couldn't remember the experience in Shushan, and his eyes swept over the others, all of them had the same expression.

"Why don't we have the memory of going to the Book Mountain?

"I don't know!"

The gate opened, and the prefect of Ji came and said: "The reason is very simple, Book Mountain is a holy place, and for the sake of the scholars of the human race, it is necessary to keep anything in it secret, so people who go to Book Mountain basically do not have relevant memories." ”

"I see!"

Everyone suddenly realized, and then they all withdrew from the temple and came to the square of the Academy of Letters to gather, waiting for the announcement of the results of Shushan.

Suddenly, a voice like a bell fell from the sky: "In this Shushan experience, Lu Ming, a student of Liang Guo, climbed the third mountain, ranking first, and immediately returned to Beijing to take up his post, there must be no mistake!"

"Thank you, saint!"

Lu Ming bowed, but he felt a little weird, because no one had mentioned that a scholar with excellent grades in Shushan would be directly appointed by the imperial court.

However, strange to strange, Lu Ming did not dare to go against the holy will, and immediately rented a carriage and rushed back to Jingzhou.

After arriving in Jingzhou, Lu Ming met Liang Jun and was appointed as the county magistrate of Qingyu County, Tianci Prefecture, Xuzhou, and immediately took office.

Qingyu County is a poor place, floods every year, destroying many crops and crops, and there are steep mountain roads everywhere, which is extremely inaccessible.

When Lu Ming came to Qingyu County to take office, the first step was to inspect the people's situation and understand the local situation.

The fields in Qingyu County are everywhere, and at a glance, they are all green crops.

The water in the crops is brought in from the Qinghe River, which is twelve miles away, and every rainy season, the water level of the Qinghe River rises, flooding more than half of the crops.

Therefore, the imperial court set up a river governor in Tianci Mansion to control the river water in this area, and opened up a flood diversion route to bring in the big river.

Lu Ming stood on the bank of the river and said to Xu Xiancheng: "Old Xu, why do you see that this flood distribution fortification was only halfway done and then stopped?"

"Lord Qiyu, the Qianhe Governor of the river is an official who regards money as his life, and he only wants to use other people's money to work, and is reluctant to contribute himself. ”

"But most of the money in this is funded by the previous county magistrate, and for the sake of our Qingyu County, we have already gone bankrupt, so we have to abandon the official and leave, because he really can't afford it. ”

Lu Ming was furious when he heard this: "A corrupt official like him, why didn't the court cure him!"

"He is a protΓ©gΓ© of Yan Shoufu, if anyone dares to go against him, doesn't it mean ruining his future?", Xu Xiancheng sighed.

"Okay, this official will immediately send a summons to the imperial court!"

After Lu Ming finished speaking, he immediately sent Hongyan a letter with the official seal, but after several days, there was still no reply.

So, Lu Ming sent a letter to Yang Xiuyuan and Tao Zhifu again, asking them for help, but strangely, there was still no reply.

Lu Ming had no choice but to come to the River Mansion in Tianci City to discuss with the Governor of Qianhe about water control.

The two sat in the hall, and Lu Ming smiled at Qian Hedu: "Lord Qian, the lower official visited your mansion today because he wanted to discuss something with you. ”

"What's the matter?"

"It's about the Qingyu County flood diversion project, this ......"

Governor Qian immediately interrupted: "As the governor of the river, this official is responsible for governing the Qinghe River in this area, but the terrain of your county is severe and it is difficult to walk, so I am afraid it will be inconvenient to control the river." ”

"Of course, this river control is a matter within Qian's share, but Qingyu County is really special in this place, and the flooding every year will cause great losses, and we are also distressed for a while. ”

"But after all, there are only a lot of people in the river house, so if you want to open another flood diversion before the rainy season to divert the river water into the river, the cost is not small. ”

When Qian Hedu said this, his eyes showed a greedy gaze, and his meaning was self-evident.

Lu Ming was slightly angry in his heart, and said: "Lord Qian's meaning is understood by the official, but the official remembers that the silver distributed by the imperial court every year is at least one million, so why is it difficult to improve this project?" )
