Liu Tian shook his head: "This anagram is a hidden word puzzle or a word puzzle. I can't think of the answer for a while. This brothel girl named Nishang does have some knowledge."
"You can't answer it either? Is it possible that none of the cultivators in Daliang Prefecture can answer it? It's been eight minutes and half of the incense has been burned. It seems that the four golden flowers in the brothel are indeed what the legend says, and few people can answer it.
Get their favor."
Zihuang felt a little sorry.
From the side, Qiu Ling'er's voice came: "Brother Tian, you really don't know? Think about it again."
Zi Huang laughed loudly: "Liu Tian, your little lady is cheering for you. You have to work hard. Even if I can't see Zi Huang's face, it's good if you can tell me about it.
.”
Liu Tian shook his head and smiled bitterly: "Then I'll think about it again."
In fact, he felt a little unwilling to do so. He thought that he, a descendant of the Yan and Huang Dynasties, had gone to kindergarten since he was two years old and had been studying for more than twenty years. It could be said that he had studied hard for decades, but he couldn't believe that he couldn't even guess a crossword puzzle.
"The upper head is removed and the lower head is removed, and the lower head is removed. What is it? Can the upper head and the lower head be removed?"
Liu Tian fell into silence for a moment, his head spinning, not to get a glimpse of Nishang's appearance, but simply to solve the puzzle.
Soon, only the last bit of the incense stick will be left, and after two or three minutes, it will be completely extinguished.
Nishang's voice came: "Has any official thought of the answer to the riddle?"
When she finished speaking, many people shook their heads and sighed. It took a while before one person said, "Damn it, no matter whether it's right or not, I have to give it a try. I'll do it!"
The sound was so abrupt that it quickly attracted everyone's attention.
Liu Tian took a closer look and saw that this person was none other than Wu Fan.
"Has Senior Brother Wu Fan figured out the answer to the riddle?" Liu Tian was slightly surprised. Wu Fan was a rough guy in his mind, and it was hard to imagine that he could come up with such a difficult riddle.
"Official, please give me the answer." Nishang was sitting on the stage, her tone did not waver at all, as if she was not a fairy with fireworks in the world.
"Okay. My answer is: Go!"
Wu Fan's words came out, and before Nishang could open her mouth, a group of young heroes started to ask.
"Why go?"
Wu Fan chuckled and looked incomprehensible: "Simple! Look at this question carefully. The top goes to the bottom, the bottom goes to the top. The two ends go to the middle, and the two ends go to the middle. If you think about it this way, aren't the top and bottom the beginning and the end? If you remove the beginning and the end, they will be
Only the middle word is left. Go to the middle from both ends, and the same goes for the two ends in the middle. All that is left are the words to remove. In fact, this question is quite simple. The answer to the riddle has been given a long time ago, hidden in the middle."
When everyone heard this, many looked suddenly enlightened.
"Yes, why didn't I think of it? The answer to the riddle was clearly hidden in the word puzzle a long time ago. Why didn't I think that this dear man really woke up the dreamer with one word? The answer must be to remove the word."
Some people affirm it, while others deny it.
"Impossible, it can't be "go". If it really means "go", the question Nishang asked is too childish."
"Why is it impossible to remove the word? The most incredible is often the most possible."
"Humph, I'm too lazy to argue with you, just listen to what Miss Nishang has to say."
"Yes, Miss Nishang, what is the answer to the riddle? Is it to remove the characters?"
Nishang glanced at everyone and smiled faintly: "This official's explanation actually makes sense. But, unfortunately, the answer to the riddle is not to remove the words. There is still one minute and the time is running out. Isn't it possible that no one can guess the little woman's answer?
?”
As soon as Nishang's words came out, those who agreed to remove the words as the answer to the riddle lowered their heads and did not dare to say anything.
Wu Fan was surprised: "It turns out I touched the wrong one."
"My dear brother, it turns out that your answer is confusion!" People who supported Wu Fan looked down upon him.
"Okay, don't argue. The time is coming. Let's discuss it and guess the answer. Otherwise, wouldn't I be bullying the people in Liangzhou? It is said that in other states, people have answered Jinhua's first question.
.If we can’t even answer the first question, it will really bring disgrace to our country.”
"Yes, yes. Everyone, hurry up and let's discuss it quickly."
All the young heroes began to whisper and discuss with each other.
On the second floor, Zihuang said: "Brother Liu Tian, let's go find someone to discuss it. Maybe we can get the answer to the mystery at the last minute. Hey, Brother Liu Tian, what's wrong with you?"
Zihuang found that Liu Tian did not respond, as if he was stunned, repeating four words: "The time is coming. The time is coming."
Zihuang smiled bitterly: "I also know that the time is coming, isn't this a last-ditch effort?"
Liu Tian didn't seem to hear Zihuang's words and kept repeating these four words. He looked at the young heroes in the audience who were talking about each other, then at the colorful clothes sitting upright on the stage, and finally looked at the burning clothes with only the last remaining
The long fragrance of a piece of incense ash.
"The time is coming."
Liu Tian's eyes suddenly flashed, as if he thought of something!
call.
At this time, a gust of wind came, and the last wisp of incense ash drifted away with the wind, and the little light slowly extinguished.
"The time is up, do you have the answer?" Nishang's voice came again, light, like a breeze.
The crowd kept shaking their heads. After discussing for so long, they still couldn't come up with a satisfactory answer.
"Forget it, a blind cat will kill a mouse. Let's choose a word and try our last luck."
A young hero spoke. The others nodded in agreement, and now they could only make a last ditch effort. But just as they were about to speak, Liu Tian's voice came.
"To. The answer is to."
His voice is not loud, but it has its own power and influence.
Nishang was moved, turned to look at Liu Tian, and smiled slightly: "I wonder why this official gave the best answer?"
"Yes, brother, why? This is the last chance, you can't talk nonsense."
Everyone hopes Liu Tian will give them a satisfactory answer.
"Brother Liu Tian, please don't make blind guesses." Zihuang was also worried about Liu Tian.
"Humph, Brother Tian won't make blind guesses. Since he told the answer, it must be correct." Qiu Ling'er had complete trust in Liu Tian.
Liu Tian cupped his hands towards Nishang and said: "This is actually an anagram. The two ends of "to" are exactly the upper and lower heads of "going". It fits the two sentences of "upper head goes to lower head" and "lower head goes to upper head". And the middle of "to" means "going".
Both ends. Its two ends are also the middle."
Liu Tian said tactfully and with full confidence.
As soon as he finished speaking, everyone was in a state of enlightenment.
"Come on! Why didn't I think of it? I won't make a mistake this time."
"Don't be too happy too early. Let's first listen to what Miss Nishang has to say."
The atmosphere suddenly became tense, and everyone was looking forward to Nishang's answer.
Finally, Nishang spoke slowly: "This official, you answered correctly. The answer is to."
"Ho! Well done, brother. You are worthy of being a hero of Liangzhou!"
In an instant, the brothel erupted into cheers, all shouting for Liu Tian.
Liu Tian felt depressed in his heart. The reason why he could think of it was because Nishang had reminded everyone that the time was coming. In fact, she had already reminded everyone of the answer.
"I, Liangzhou, have finally saved my face."
At this time, Wu Fan stared at Liu Tian, always feeling familiar, and finally shouted: "Junior brother Liu Tian! It's you. I know him, he is my junior brother. If there is a good senior brother, there will never be a bad junior brother. Hahahahahaha."
"
Liu Tian heard Wu Fan calling him and smiled faintly at Wu Fan.
"Junior brother, wait for me. I'll be up right away."
Wu Fan quickly went up to the second floor and gave Liu Tian a bear hug.
"Everyone, be quiet, be quiet."
The madam's voice came.
"First of all, congratulations to the young man for guessing the answer to the riddle. But don't be too happy. Nishang has just asked the first question, and there are two more difficult questions next. Let's ask Nishang to give you the second question.
Ask a question."
Everyone became quiet one after another. However, everyone felt a little guilty. The first question was so difficult that few people could answer the second question. But for the sake of face, many people shouted.
"Girl Nishang, feel free to ask the second question. Let's continue."
Nishang smiled faintly and said: "Okay, then I will ask the second question. Everyone, please listen carefully. This question is also answered within one stick of incense, but this time, the burning time of the incense is half an hour."
"Okay. Miss Nishang, please come out."
"First let me sing a nursery rhyme for everyone. The big rabbit is sick. The second rabbit looks at it. The third rabbit buys medicine, and the fourth rabbit cooks it. The fifth rabbit dies, and the sixth rabbit carries it. The seventh rabbit digs a hole, and the eighth rabbit buries it. The ninth rabbit sits on the ground.
When he started crying, Ten Rabbits asked him why he was crying. Nine Rabbits said that Five Rabbits would never come back once they left."
The nursery rhymes are not very pleasant, but when sung by Nishang, they have a special flavor.
After singing, Nishang asked: "Why did the five rabbits die?"
"Forehead……"
For a moment, the crowd was stunned. This nursery rhyme was not unfamiliar to them. Many children in the streets and alleys would sing it when playing. But who would think about how the five rabbits died?
"Girl Nishang, can this nursery rhyme be a problem? You are not deliberately trying to embarrass us, are you?"
A young and handsome man asked.
Nishang smiled faintly: "If you regard this song as a nursery rhyme, you will naturally not understand how the five rabbits died. Everyone can discuss with each other. Based on the relationship between the ten rabbits, we can infer how the five rabbits died. Please
Everyone, hurry up, we only have half an hour."
"Can it really be inferred?"
Young heroes all claim to be Zhuge Zhuge, but they never expected that this familiar nursery rhyme actually contains a mystery story. This is simply incredible.
"Oh my god, my head is dizzy. How can I explain this? Did Five Rabbits die suddenly? From exhaustion? From illness?"
Wu Fan started to make random guesses again.
Zihuang shook his head: "I don't know either, but Miss Nishang said there is a connection between these ten rabbits, so there must be a connection. We have to use our imagination to deduce how the five rabbits died. Liu Tian, what do you think?
"
At this moment, Liu Tian wanted to laugh. He really wanted to laugh. This nursery rhyme was no stranger to him. When he was on Earth, he happened to read such a reasoning question. He already knew the answer in his heart!
"Brother Liu Tian, what's your expression?"
Zihuang noticed that Liu Tian was about to smile but was not smiling.
"No, it's nothing."
Liu Tian did not tell Zihuang the answer. It was not that he wanted to answer it himself, but that he had almost forgotten the reasoning question. He only remembered a little bit of the reasoning process in sequence. He only remembered that Ten Rabbits was the murderer, but he could not understand it.
The reason why Shun is the murderer.
"Zihuang, senior brother Wu Fan. I have some ideas. Let's discuss it together."
"Do you have an idea?" Zihuang and Wu Fan were both shocked. For such a difficult question, you actually came up with an idea so quickly.
"Hmm. The murderer may be Ten Rabbits. The motive for the murder was love killing."
"Love killing?"
Everyone was stunned by what Liu Tian said. It was a nursery rhyme, but it was actually related to sympathy and killing.
