Chapter Seventy-Four: The Choice Between Life and Death
"Damn... is it necessary to play tricks on people like this..." Ana Shen was about to cry. She had just stepped out of the tiger's den and into the wolf's den! I don't know what the ancestors of the Shen family were thinking.
Three roads? Since the other party left a hint, it means that one of the roads may be true...but the problem is, the other two roads are false.
Well, that means there is still a two-thirds chance of choosing a dead end! No one will remain calm in the face of such a choice, especially when the odds of this choice are asymmetric!
Think about it... After making a choice, the possibility of death is twice as high as the possibility of survival. I am afraid that no one will take this choice lightly, and it is absolutely necessary to be cautious!
As for why Ana Shen did not dare to choose easily, it was because he intuitively felt that what was said on the wooden sign was absolutely true. If he chose wrongly, he would never be able to get out even if he did not die.[
For Shen Ruyan, he couldn't make a hasty decision.
Ana Shen frowned slightly and carefully looked at the handwriting on the three wooden signs again. After confirming that all the handwriting had been memorized, he walked aside and squatted on the ground.
He drew three lines, and these three lines continued to extend... There seemed to be no pattern at all, and sometimes they were even entangled together, but Ana Shen's eyes were extremely clear.
"Analyzing it literally...the first road is most likely to be a dead end, and the third road is most likely to be a way to live!" Shen Yan nodded, and then extended the third line drawn for a while. .
Ana Shen was afraid that the wooden sign would play word games, because there was clearly a loophole on the first wooden sign.
... What you want should be there! This is a sentence on the first wooden sign, so if you analyze it literally... it should be? Who knows whether this should be true or false?
What if this is a reminder? What you want should not be there! This sentence and what you want should be there. In fact, the probability of being there or not is only half.
It is precisely the half-truths and half-false words of hesitation that make people unable to judge easily. But Ana Shen felt that the possibility of the first road being a dead end accounted for more than 90%!
The first is because the words on the wooden sign are contradictory. It is precisely because of the contradiction that it is unreasonable! The most important thing is that the wooden signs on the second road and the third road both point out that the first road is a dead end!
Because the second wooden sign says that the first road is fake...the road in the middle where it is located is the real one! The wooden sign in front of the third road directly points out - yours The first choice is correct... What choice? Naturally, you didn't take the first path as soon as you saw the words on the first wooden sign! Otherwise, you would be dead now...
It was precisely because of the linguistic contradictions left by the first road itself and the reminders of the second and third roads that Ana Shen felt that the first road was most likely to be a dead end!
At this moment, Ana Shen also had an idea.
"The words left on the third road are the strangest... It says that my first choice was correct! So it must be assumed that the first wooden sign I saw must be on the left road!"
Ana Shen's eyes flickered.
"But how can it be sure that my first choice must be to go to the far left? Could it be that... this formation or illusion also has the effect of affecting people's hearts?"
Ana Shen couldn't help but broke into a cold sweat.
"No! It can't be like this... If it could affect people's hearts, then I would have walked in by now... In other words, this wooden sign is not a given at all!"
"If I had just walked towards the middle road, I am afraid that the writing on the wooden sign on the left will appear on the wooden sign in the middle... In short, the first thing I saw must be the prompt on the wooden sign on the far left !”
At this time, Ana Shen actually calmed down a bit. Although he was not a person with extraordinary talents and wisdom... but if he thought about the problem carefully, he could still see some clues.[
"Isn't it a given? Then... it's possible that if I come here, I won't necessarily encounter three roads? There may also be other choices..."
Ana Shen secretly had some calculations in her heart.
"According to this tip... the third way is probably the most likely way to survive! If something goes wrong, it must be a monster. Since it doesn't want people to enter, it reflects this from the side!"
"But what if the ancestors who established these three roads also thought of this? It just starts from this point, using people's reverse thinking to let those who come enter the third road!"
Ana Shen drew the third route to the left... In the figure on the ground at this moment, the route on the left spreads towards the middle, and the same goes for the right...
"Let's first assume that this possibility is true...then the third way may also be a dead end! The second way is the most normal!"
Ana Shen sighed in vain.
"If you analyze it this way... Damn it! The first road may also be a way to live... Because the second road and the third road say it is a dead end... maybe it is the way to live!"
Ana Shen once again discovered that playing this kind of game based on his IQ... would simply become more and more complicated the more he thought about it, but in an instant, his eyes calmed down again.
It's okay to be anxious and complaining. In short, you have to think carefully and make the most suitable choice.
"But... according to this logic! My idea just now should be wrong..." Ana Shen suddenly muttered to himself.
"Maybe there are three roads, not two dead ends! If I guessed correctly... one is dead, one is alive, and the other is the real way to bury the treasure!"
Because on the third wooden sign, it was said that he had better not enter this road... This can be seen as this road is a dead end, or it can be seen as this road, which is actually a road to life, but it does not lead to the burial of ancestors. The path of bones!
In other words, if he walks into the third road, he may go out directly without risking his life... but he will not get the treasure recorded on the map in his hand.
"Maybe the road that really hides the treasure... is the second one!" Shen Yan suddenly extended all the lines on the left and right to the middle on the ground. At this point, the three lines were completely entangled together.
Ana Shen stood up and walked to the middle road.
He looked at the endless deep road and took a breath... Although the third road had the greatest chance of survival, he couldn't get what he wanted!
Strength is the most important thing. Ana Shen has decided to take a gamble on the first road and the second road!
His steps have already picked up...but he still refuses to fall down.
"Hey...if the dead end is really between the first and second roads, and I die here...what should I do, sister?" Shen Yan sighed.
At this moment, he was just like his ancestor just now, feeling quite helpless.
"That's all... take the third path! Although you won't get anything... but as long as I'm still here! Everything is possible... If I really die, then my sister..." [
Ana Shen immediately walked to the third road.
He was about to walk into it, but suddenly he read the writing on the third wooden sign again... Shen Yan suddenly broke into a cold sweat and quickly backed away!
