Chapter 92: The Gatekeeper's Charade
"I haven't reviewed your qualifications yet! You just want to go in like this? A thin, white-haired old man walked out. He was dressed in black, and in the middle of his shirt was a large white word 'Shou'. I guess it's the gatekeeper here.
Dong Kelan said worriedly: "It can't be that you can't enter under the age of eighteen, right?" "If that's the case, there are nine people here, only Hawking, the three of them and Tang Wu can enter.
"Hahaha," the old man laughed, "This is not your human casino. As long as they are eligible, one-year-old children can enter. ā
Everyone looked at each other, not knowing what qualifications the old man was talking about.
Chen Ji was a little impatient, originally he was here to earn cards and equipment. Now I finally came to the door of the casino, and I was blocked by a stinky old man. The old man's laughter was a provocation to him: "I said old man, let's go in." You can't stop me! ā
When the old man heard someone threaten him, he thought it was even more funny: "You young man is so humorous. It's been a long time since anyone said this to me! ā
"Don't be impulsive!" Zhou Yiping said: "Don't you feel that there are a lot of eyes staring at us nearby? ā
Dong Kelan also appeared and pulled Chen Ji. Chen Ji suddenly came to his senses and looked around the palace. Sure enough, a pair of blood-red eyes stared at them in the grass.
"It's a wolfdog? Wrong! Much bigger than a wolfdog! Gu Xinyuan guessed.
The old man stopped laughing at this time, and said, "There are more than two dozen hellhounds here, if you want to force your way in." I'll do whatever you want. But I have to warn you. Even if I call one, you little babies will have to stuff it between your teeth. ā
"It's going to be hard!" Hawking touched his chin, if he brought a GG watch, with the three of them working together, these hellhounds might not be able to beat, but now they are empty-handed!
Hawking made up his mind and asked: "We were offended a lot just now, and we asked our seniors to draw out the way!" ā
The old man nodded with satisfaction and said, "It's still polite for this junior." Actually, you don't have to worry, the review is very simple. It's also for your own good! ā
"Good for us?" Xiao Crooked pushed his glasses: "You mean that there is a lot of luck inside, and you want us to retreat?" ā
The old man put his hands in his pockets and said, "It's okay to say that the inner layer is okay." If it's two floors down, I don't think anyone will survive. Besides, this casino has a rule. Once inside, it is not until the last floor. There is only death in it. That is, life or death. Are you enlightened? ā
"Is this guy an NPC? This quest was supposed to complete the main quest before you could go back. Otherwise, you'll be trapped on this plane all the time! Zhou Ping pondered: "The Grim Reaper must be in this last layer!" ā
Seeing that everyone did not flinch, the old man took out some matches from his pocket. I put together a pattern on the ground by myself. As he built, he said, "Let's play a charade." If you win, I'll let you in! ā
Charades? What the? Thought we were elementary school students? Most people think so, but if it's really simple, waste some time playing with him. It is estimated that the old man is only accompanied by a hound at the door of this hell casino, and he is really lonely.
After a while, the old man spelled out the word 'only' with matches. Then he slapped the ground with the palm of his right hand and said, "Give you two a hint before playing this game." Do you know what it says in the 'Hell Script'? ā
"Of course it's 'only'!" Chen Ji replied without thinking. Maybe he didn't hear the words 'Hell Words' at all.
"Wrong!" The old man smiled and said, "You human beings don't pronounce 'only' in your writings, but you don't pronounce 'only' in hell writings. ā
This old man really loves to sell Guanzi, but Zhou Yiping still asked politely: "Dare to ask, how to pronounce the shape of the earth in the hell text?" ā
Since the old man said the hint, of course he would tell them before the game started.
"The word is pronounced 'u'! The homonym of the 'wu' of force" The old man expressed it very clearly.
This 'only' is not a year ZhI, but a pronounced u. That's a 108,000-mile difference! The old man didn't wait for them to think about it, and put the match on the ground into a 'one' word. He pointed to the match on the ground with his right index finger and said, "What does this word say?" ā
No one was sure what to read, but no one answered. After more than three minutes of stalemate......
"One?" Chen Ji replied very quietly this time, and he really didn't have much confidence.
"Impossible! I didn't even pronounce the word 'only' just now. How can 'one' still be pronounced 'one'! Xiao Crooked said disdainfully.
But the old man's answer made him stunned: "Not bad! It's very simple, just pronounce 'one'! ā
"I'm cĒo! What the hell is this text? Xiao Wei said indignantly.
Shen Xiaotian said: "Of course, the words of hell are all ghost words!" You got it right this time! ā
Hawking snapped: "Laughing! Can you please stop telling bad jokes here, the captain has reminded you how many times, if you commit it again, I will report it truthfully and ban you from copying it three times. ā
Xiao Wei on the side deliberately added fuel and vinegar and said: "Brother Jin! Don't make a big fuss. Shen Xiaotian held his breath, and it was not good to quarrel with Xiao Wei here.
Chen Jizhen didn't expect that he would guess correctly: "What? I was right! ā
Dong Kelan thinks that the '1' in Arabic numerals is a vertical, and the 'one' in Chinese characters is a horizontal, and it is probably just a coincidence that the hellish characters are the same.
Zhou Yiping asked, "Is this the second hint?" ā
The old man glanced at him, and did not directly answer Zhou Ping's question, but said sternly: "The game has officially begun!" ā
After saying that, he squatted on the ground and put the matches into a "two" figure, then stood up, put his hands in his pockets and asked, "What does this word read?" I've already given you two tips! Each of the nine of you has a chance to answer, and as long as one of you answers, you can all enter the casino! ā
"What if no one answers?" Zhou Yiping asked.
"No one answered, and I don't embarrass you. Feel relieved! Hellhounds won't come out. I just can't go in today, so come back tomorrow! The old man replied cheerfully, he should not be lying to them.
There are so many pronunciations of the language, it is like looking for a needle in a haystack. Especially for people like Chen Ji who are too lazy to use their brains, this is a kind of mental destruction. He replied cheerfully: "This word is pronounced 'two'!" "Anyway, there are so many high-IQ deposits, he is really lazy to think about it, and he is ready to rely on everyone.
"That's not right! There are still eight people to answer! The old man said lightly.
Sure enough, it's different from the way words are pronounced in reality. Be sure to think about it! Zhou Yiping was thinking about it. I only heard Xiao Crooked open his mouth and say: "If you don't pronounce 'two', do you pronounce 'two'?" Two? Two? The same meaning! ā
"That's not right! There are still seven people to answer! ā
"Wait! I'm talking to myself, old man! You know? Xiao Crooked argued: "This is not the answer I submitted!" ā
The old man opened one eye and closed one eye, ignoring Xiao Crooked at all, and said, "There are still the last seven people, think carefully before you speak." ā
