170.

"So, in the past 8,000 years, your master has only been a foreign Daoist, and after the death of the Foreign Daoist Immortal, you have been staying here?" Cheng Li asked.

"Yes, what else can I do, I'm still underage, and I can't move on my own. Without an owner, I can only squat in this place where the bird doesn't poop, waiting for someone to appear.

"Fortunately, those people in Qingling Island attach great importance to arithmetic, and they also have a greater appetite for me. So anyway, I have nothing to do when I'm idle, so I allow them to use a small area inside me as a place for the inheritance and storage of yin-yang arithmetic, and it's just a gesture for me anyway.

"So thousands of years ago, I was very uncomfortable to watch those boys die like this, but there was no way for anyone to let no one go up to the 3,000th floor.

"After a thousand years, I could only take a nap in this boring place, and every day I watched a silly little snake run to the entrance and squat, like a Wangfu stone.

"Seriously, I feel like I'm getting rusty. I really don't know when someone who can go up to the 3,000th floor will appear, you mortals, your brains are really too rusty. Cultivating the truth all day long, cultivating the truth, and not using his brain to think about it. ”

Cheng Li coughed, pointed at himself and said, "Don't you think that I can become your new master?"

"You?" Xiao Shutong snorted and laughed, "Haha! Don't tease me, you don't want to see what kind of cultivation you have, the realm of the Great Perfection of the Qi Refining Period, you want to use this kind of cultivation to go up to the 3,000th floor? Don't dream." ”

Cheng Li was a little unconvinced and said: "Since this arithmetic tablet test relies on arithmetic problems, what does it have to do with cultivation, this test is knowledge!"

The little arithmetic boy shook his finger arrogantly and said: "Young man, you are too naïve! Although it is said that there is no restriction on cultivation in this arithmetic tablet test, it is just that it is right to test knowledge! But the arithmetic knowledge tested is very profound. It is necessary to have a strong calculation ability, so the higher the cultivation level, the stronger the calculation ability of the divine sense, and even like the Yuan Infant cultivator, who has already achieved the 'Molting Baby', he can use the Yuan Infant to control the Jin Dan to assist himself in calculation.

Therefore, even if a cultivator encounters some questions that he does not understand, he can immediately deduce and study them to solve them.

"You are a minor cultivator in the Qi refining period, and if you want to be able to answer the question immediately, unless you can master the relevant arithmetic knowledge in advance, and you don't need to make deductions on the spot, it is possible. ”

Cheng Li scratched his head, as if he felt that Xiao Shutong had a little sense, but he still insisted: "Even so, I still want to give it a try." ”

Xiao Shutong said: "Then you have to think about it, after all, everyone only has one chance to enter the Arithmetic Monument." Unless you can go up to the 3000th floor, which is undoubtedly impossible!

"Like a foreign Taoist, the first time he entered the arithmetic monument was the cultivation of the Yuan infancy. The second time to enter the arithmetic tablet is already the cultivation of the distraction period. ”

"Later cultivators usually come in to participate in the arithmetic tablet trial in the Yuan Infant Period, and there are very few Jindan periods. Although there were occasionally some Qi Refining Stage cultivators who came in to try their luck, they usually failed before the 100th floor. ”

Cheng Li touched his nose and said, "Although I also want to wait for the Yuan Infant to come in, it seems that there is not so much time for me to rub it now." That Qingling Island will be attacked by the Blood Demon Island in another day, if I can't get the inheritance of Yin-Yang arithmetic before this, then Qingling Island will be hopeless. ”

"That's it...... "I didn't expect that after a thousand years, Qingling Island is getting more and more cowardly, and it's really getting back more and more." It's a shame to say that it's my inheritance. ”

"Uh...... Let's not talk about this for a while, what I want to know is, if I want to get the inheritance of yin-yang arithmetic, how many layers do I need to go to?

"Of course not. Xiao Shutong shook his head and said, "Three thousand layers, this has only been successfully reached by foreign Daoists in the past eight thousand years." If the inheritance of yin-yang arithmetic is placed here, then no one will be able to get this inheritance.

"Therefore, the inheritance of yin-yang arithmetic is placed in the thousandth layer.

"The thousandth floor is a position that can only be reached as long as you carefully study the knowledge of yin-yang arithmetic on Qingling Island. Therefore, it can also prevent some outsiders from obtaining the knowledge of yin-yang arithmetic. This position is not too high, nor too low, and it is just right for the test of inheritance. ”

Cheng Li said thoughtfully: "A thousand layers...... Okay, then take me to the trial place of the Arithmetic Monument, I decided to participate in this Arithmetic Monument trial. ”

When Xiao Shutong heard this, he shrugged his shoulders and said, "Okay, since you have decided, then I will take you over." ”

After Xiao Shutong finished speaking, he jumped up and snapped his fingers in the air.

Then, Cheng Li felt his surroundings change for a while.

When he came back to his senses, he found himself in a strange place.

Huge slide tapes, rectangles, circles, and other aggregates and calculators are floating everywhere.

This space is not large, at the end of what Cheng Li's eyes can see, there is a staircase leading to the upper floor, but at this time, the staircase is blocked by a thin light curtain.

In the middle of this space, there is a big "zero, zero, zero, zero" written in the like, which seems to indicate that this is the meaning of the first layer.

"Welcome, the place of trial of the Monument of Arithmetic. This is the first floor, and I'll be with you all the time, so don't even think about cheating! Of course, you don't want to get any help from me! If you reveal a little bit of it, I'll expel you!

"That's pretty much the rule, if there are no other problems, then the trial begins?"

"Let's get started. Cheng Li nodded calmly.

As soon as Cheng Li's words fell, Xiao Shutong jumped up, spun around in the air, and then waved his immature little hand, shooting out a ray of light and reflecting into nothingness.

In the next instant, the entire arithmetic monument began to function for the first time in a thousand years.

If you look outside at this time, you will find that the huge whirlpool that supports the arithmetic monument has begun to rotate at an accelerated pace.

And the spire of the arithmetic monument also shot a ray of light into the air, like a lighthouse......

Being inside the arithmetic monument, Cheng Li, who was at the bottom, didn't know what had changed in the outside world.

However, at this time, some changes have taken place in the trial place.

I saw a golden point of light falling down from the big character "Zero Zero Zero One floating in the middle", and then these points of light were combined into a question.

"Today Arita wide fifteen steps, from sixteen steps. Ask for Tian Geometry?

It seems that this is the first question of the first level of the trial.

Xiao Shutong looked at Cheng Li with a playful face, and laughed: "How is it?"

Cheng Li looked at this question with a somewhat strange expression, and then he replied without thinking.

"The answer is one acre. ”

In an instant, the falling points of light were reassembled, and finally the word "correct" emerged.

Xiao Shutong couldn't help but be a little surprised: "Why did you answer so quickly?"

On the surface, Cheng Li just showed an unfathomable expression.

But in his heart, he just shouted wildly: "This is the first question of "Nine Chapters of Arithmetic", can I not?"
