Chapter 496 Math Test

After announcing the start of the mathematics exam, the examiner took out 10 transparent glass bottles from under the podium, and the bottles contained many small red pills.

Then he took out a tray balance and a box of weights from under the podium. After placing these things, he said:

"I have 10 medicine bottles here, each containing 24 pills. Nine of them contain poison, and the remaining one is not poisonous."

"Poisonous pills and non-poisonous pills are indistinguishable in appearance and taste, but the weight of each poisonous pill is 1 gram, and the weight of each non-poisonous pill is 0.9 grams."

"The test time this time is also one hour, but because there is an additional question at the end, students who have not taken pills will be eliminated after forty minutes."

"I have a scale here. You can use the scale to distinguish which bottle of pills is not poisonous. However, you can only weigh it once. Please seize this opportunity and start now!"

After the examiner finished explaining the topic, Mo Shouchen looked at the 10 pill bottles on the podium. Each bottle contained 24 red pills, enough for all participants.

In other words, as long as they find the non-poisonous bottle of medicine, all participants will survive.

But these little pills look exactly the same, the only difference is that the poisonous pills are 0.1 grams heavier than the non-toxic pills.

Such a subtle difference in weight cannot be distinguished by just feeling, but the scale can only be used once, so how can we find the bottle of medicine that is not poisonous?

The classroom was very quiet, and only the sound of slight breathing could be heard. It seemed that everyone was concentrating on thinking about this math problem that was related to their lives, except for the guy who was sleeping on the desk.

After about five minutes, a male participant sitting in the second row wearing earrings raised his hand. After getting permission from the examiner, he said: "I know how to do this question."

The examiner waved to him to go to the podium to operate, but as soon as he stood up from his seat, Chen Ying also raised his hand.

The examiner looked at Chen Ying and asked, "Do you want to come up and do this question too?"

Chen Ying replied: "Teacher, I haven't figured out how to solve this question yet, but I have a request."

"Oh? What request?"

"I wish we could discuss it with each other."

No one thought that Chen Ying would dare to make a request to the examiner, but just when everyone was sweating for him, the examiner nodded.

"Okay, I allow you to discuss with each other, but it must be something related to the exam."

The examiner agreed to Chen Ying's request. It seemed that he was very tolerant of the monitor he had just appointed.

"Thank you teacher!"

Chen Ying expressed his gratitude to the examiner, then turned to the man with earrings who was preparing to answer the question and said, "Tell me your method first."

The male participant with earrings said confidently: "Isn't this simple? Each pill bottle contains 24 pills. First, take two bottles of pills and place them at both ends of the scale. If the weights are the same, take two more pills.

Put the bottle of medicine on both sides until the scale tilts, and you can find the bottle with the lightest weight."

After listening to the earring man's method, Mo Shouchen really wanted to go up and give him a kick. This was not a weighing session!

Fortunately, Chen Ying stopped him in time, otherwise all the remaining 16 participants would have died in his hands.

After calling the self-righteous earring man back, everyone continued to think about ways to solve the problem.

At this time, there was another rustling sound outside the door. It should be those ghost students just now. It seems that they will only return to their class when the bell rings.

The noise in the corridor was as annoying as flies, making people unable to concentrate on thinking. Although several people later put forward their own ideas, they were all rejected in the end.

Mo Shouchen also thought of many methods in his mind, but after calculation, these methods all had problems, and they could not find the non-poisonous medicine bottle 100%.

20 minutes passed, and the earring man couldn't sit still anymore, so he proposed another method.

Place five medicine bottles at both ends of the scale and find the five bottles with lighter weights. The non-poisonous medicine bottle must be among these five bottles.

Then everyone draws lots and selects five people. Each person chooses a bottle of medicine and takes it. In this way, the lives of all the people can be exchanged for the price of four people.

Chen Ying looked at the man with earrings and sneered: "Your method is not impossible, but since you came up with the idea, then choose four of the remaining people, plus yourself, there will be exactly five people."

The man with earrings said angrily: "Why do I have to participate? It's only fair that we all draw lots together!"

Chen Ying's eyes suddenly turned cold. He stared at the man with earrings and said, "Just because I am the monitor, if I ask you to participate, you must participate!"

The man with earrings laughed and said loudly: "Monitor? You really treat yourself like a green onion. I won't participate. Let's see what you can do to me!"

As a result, before the man with earrings finished speaking, a piece of chalk flew directly towards his eyebrows.

However, unlike several people who died before, his reaction was extremely fast. After noticing the murderous aura emanating from the examiner, he had subconsciously made an evasive action.

Therefore, the chalk tip did not hit the center of his eyebrow, but instead drew a deep blood mark next to his eyebrow bone.

After luckily escaping, the man with earrings did not hesitate and directly summoned a bald ghost.

The bald ghost is shirtless, with a blue dragon on the left and a white tiger on the right. His chest and back are also full of tattoos, and he has a shiny machete in his hand that is very cold.

"Brother Long, let's go!"

As he spoke, the earring man and the bald ghost rushed towards the examiner. It seemed that they also understood that if they did not deal with the examiner, they would inevitably die.

But just as they rushed to the podium, the examiner suddenly picked up the book he had been reading and flicked it away.

The papers in the book flew out like countless sharp flying knives, directly slicing through the bodies of the man with earrings and the bald ghost.

The next second, red lines appeared on the body of the man with earrings, and then separated into pieces of flesh and scattered on the ground.

The bald ghost and the machete in his hand were also cut into several pieces, and then turned into dust and disappeared into the air.

The examiner's strength shocked Mo Shouchen. To be honest, the man with earrings who could avoid the chalk head was already very strong, but in the end he was killed easily by the examiner.

Therefore, it is absolutely impossible to forcefully complete the script by killing the examiner. It seems that the only way to survive is to take the exam honestly and answer the questions seriously...
