Chapter 44: How Many Tricks Are There?
The female voice in the red trench coat said:
"Suppose there are 50 hunters in Salt Well Town, they are all the most logical students in the Multifish Academy, and each of them has a child, but the hunters are withdrawn and will not have any communication with the other 49 hunters.
One day, the dean of the academy sent a message telling them that there were ghosts in the town, just among their children, but the hunters could only find out whether the children of other hunters were ghosts, and could not tell whether their own children were ghosts or not, and they could go to other hunters' houses during the day to observe whether other people's children were ghosts, but they could not shoot at the children of other hunters, and decide whether to shoot their own children when they returned home at night.
The dean demanded that if they knew that their child was a ghost, they would be killed immediately that night, and they could not disobey it.
So... After 50 hunters learned that there were ghosts in the town.
On the first night, no hunters fired a shot;
The next night, no hunters fired a shot;
By the evening of the third day..... There were 5 gunshots in the town.
Excuse me, how many ghosts are there in town? And say why. โ
After the words of the red trench coat were finished, he floated in the air, waiting for Cheng Whistle Feng's answer.
After listening, Cheng Xianfeng had only one symbol in his mind at this moment:
(; ยดใป`)?
Hunter? Child? Ghost? ๏ผร๏ผ
Old people, subway, cell phone! ๏ผโ๏ผ
Why is there no clue at all???
I can't see if my own child is a ghost, and I can't shoot other children who are ghosts, so why do I shoot?
Why didn't you shoot two days ago? Shoot on the third day?
And why did you shoot 5 shots?
'Ahh My head is so messy!! โ
After the corners of Cheng Whistle's mouth twitched a few times, he pretended to be calm and said:
"Can you say that again?"
The red windbreaker repeated the question again, Cheng Whistle Feng remembered it in his heart, and then... The brain is still a mess.
The format of this question reminded him of a classic question that he once posted: a bear fell from 20 meters in the air, took 2 seconds, and asked whether the bear was male or female?
This is outrageous!
Cheng Xiangfeng thought about it for a long time, but he didn't find the trick to this question.
With an idea, he called out to Zero in his consciousness: "Zero, do you know what the answer to this question is?" โ
Zero: "Master, this question is not in Zero's database, so I can't answer it..."
Depend on! Can't even do a reasoning question, and is it still known as artificial intelligence?
Rubbish!
If Cheng Xiaofeng doesn't want to be trapped here by a red-clothed ghost waiting to die, he must rely on his own brain to solve this question.
The red trench coat ghost in front of him was obviously far more powerful than he understood, and with the current strength of him and several players, he couldn't compete at all, and once he was trapped here... The day when the base's energy runs out will be his death day.
Cheng Xiaofeng calmed down and began to think about every detail of the question......
There are four preconditions: 1. Hunters are all smart people with strong logical ability; 2. The hunters will not communicate with each other; 3. Hunters can only see whether other people's children are ghosts or not; 4. Hunters can only shoot their own children...'
The result was that two days ago, Christmas Eve, and on the third day, five shots were fired...... Ask how many ghosts there are in town. โ
So the key to this question is......
'It's...'
'MD: How do I feel that this question is lacking! โ
The corners of Cheng Whistle's mouth twitched, and a stream of resentment from the scumbag gushed out.
He remembered that when he was in high school, in the examination room of a general examination, a top student suddenly raised his hand: "Teacher! Question 13 is wrong, one less condition! โ
The teacher looked at the test questions for a while and nodded: "Well, this question is indeed wrong... You don't have to do this question yet. โ
Cheng Xiaofeng looked at the answer he had already calculated and fell into deep thought.
Now the situation is reversed, he feels that there is a lack of qualifications, but... The ghost said the question twice, and the content is here, and he can only answer the result.
Seeing Cheng Whistle in thought, the red windbreaker was also suspended in the air and waited quietly.
After 10 minutes, Cheng Xuanfeng's head was about to flow.
The red trench coat urged: "Did you figure it out?" This kind of question... Even you Fishes Academy students can't answer? Hehehe~ I used to like your academy a lot......"
"Since you can't think of it... Then you can stay with me, and let you leave when you will be released. โ
The red windbreaker opened, and black mist poured out, and he was about to arrest Cheng Whistle Feng.
"Wait!"
Cheng Xianfeng stretched out a hand to block the front, and the corners of his mouth were slightly hooked.
"This question... I've figured it out! โ
The black mist stays in mid-air.
"Oh? Then tell me the answer, quick! โ
It sounded very urgent, and there was an undisguised joy.
Cheng Xiaofeng nodded and thought back to his reasoning again.
The key to solving this problem is not so many preconditions, but the result! 5 shots fired! Since hunters can only shoot their own children, then on the third night 5 shots, it should be that all 5 hunters have fired! And as hunters with perfect points of logical reasoning ability, there must be a way to know how many ghosts there are in the town, so on the third night, the hunters deduced 5 ghosts through their own abilities and shot them together, although I can't understand how the hunters reasoned, but judging from the results, this is the most reasonable explanation. โ
Cheng Whistle felt that with his logical ability... Only this explanation can answer this question.
But vaguely... He also felt that this question might not be so simple.
"There's a total of along..."
Just as he was about to say the answer, the door behind him was opened.
Forgiveness Hat and Xiaoxiao pushed the door and walked in.
"Your Lord! We're here to save you! โ
"Demons, retreat quickly!"
The two of them rushed towards the red trench coat with maces.
Cheng Whistle Wind: (โงฬฃฬฅฬ๊ชเปโข๊ชเป)
"Don't..."
After 10 seconds.
Cheng Whistle Feng glanced at the two people who were struggling in the air by the black mist, and covered his eyes.
"Don't be impulsive... We're just exchanging questions amicably. (Chinese)
Cheng Whistle seamlessly switched into the Wasteland language: "That... Sister Hong, please put the two of them down, they are me... Our prep students of Multi-Fish Academy came out with me to practice. โ
"Oh? No wonder I was able to come out of my illusory realm... Your academy has received two more good seedlings... This little girl, in particular, has the potential to be a professor. The red trench coat put down the two of them.
Then he asked urgently, "So, what is the answer to this question?" โ
Cheng Whistle looked at the two players he had carefully selected, and recalled his ordinary 20 years...... Laughed.
"The question... It's not difficult, I can tell you the answer directly, but that won't be interesting, so why don't you take this opportunity to test my two prospective students with this question, see if they can answer the correct answer, and let you also see how capable the preparatory students of our academy are... How is it? โ
Ghost in Red: "Interesting... Anyway, I've been waiting for 10 years, and it's not bad for this meeting, the Multifish Academy, which claims to suppress all the world's energy systems with technology... Is there really such a miracle as the legend goes? If your prep students can answer this question, then you will gain my respect. โ
"Are you stupid?" (Chinese)
Redman: "What do you mean?" โ
"Oh, a native language that means... In a word, you don't understand? Wasn't it possible to communicate with my prep students before? โ
The red-clothed ghost chuckled: "Hehe~ That's not me communicating with you, it's the illusion that the void energy makes you, everyone's hallucination is different, even I can't control it, of course... If you're willing to open your mind and let me into your head, maybe we can communicate directly. โ
"You don't have to!"
Cheng Whistle politely refused.
Knowing that the red-clothed ghost couldn't understand their words, Cheng Whistle was a little relieved.
Repeat the question of the red-clothed ghost to the two people next to him in Chinese.
"This is the final test given to us by the red-clothed ghost, if we can answer it... You'll get great rewards and base-specific titles,"
"If it fails... I'll be imprisoned here, and then the two of you will go back to the base and contact the other three soldiers to find a way to crack this town... I will give Zero an order to start the resurrection clone program directly when you die, and all soldiers must keep the clone warehouse full of raw materials so that you can be resurrected, but without me by your side, you can't store your body data, and you will start again after you die...... When the [Clone Creation Warehouse] resources exceed your 5 resurrection needs, I will wake up more soldiers, and you must take the new soldiers to find a way to crack this place! Get me out! Otherwise, the natural disaster base... It's going to be gone, and you're going to fall into a permanent slumber, hear me! โ
Cheng Whistle had prepared for the worst.
Forgiveness Hat snapped.
Will NPCs be imprisoned? Will they fall into a permanent slumber? Isn't that a ban?
The plot of this world... Is it so exciting?
Xiaoxiao also showed a look of disbelief: "This is a plot choice route? Two plots... Heading for a different path? โ
Forgiveness Hat looked solemn: "It looks like this... If we succeed, we will be rewarded, and if we fail... Then we can't store experience without the help of the base lord, and if we die once and start over, it will be extremely difficult to open up the wasteland, and we will become hostile to the red-clothed ghost in front of us, and everyone's main quest will become 'rescue the lord'... This is definitely a very bad world line! โ
Xiaoxiao also said: "Without the lord, the development of the base will stagnate, and we will never receive any more tasks... It's terrible, we have to save him! โ
The two looked at each other, raised their left hands in unison, clenched their fists, and pounded their chests.
"Your Lord! We'll figure it out! โ
