Chapter 1893 Priced Lantern Riddles

"How many concubines does King Yin have in total? Which one is the most bewitching? Is she having an affair with General Wu Shu?"

After Chen Lin used his natural ability to select Hedeng again, he got such a puzzle.

He looked at the riddle elf.

The puzzle was as weird as ever, but he couldn't answer it.

Because he doesn't even know who the Yin King is.

Chen Lin sighed secretly.

After all, natural ability is not omnipotent. This time it is not the type of riddles he is good at. It seems that he will stop here.

"Who is the hidden king?"

Unwilling to be reconciled, Chen Lin asked tentatively.

Anyway, if he can't answer, he will be disqualified from guessing the lantern riddles. It is better to ask and give him a reminder. There is no loss if he doesn't give a reminder.

"King Yin is the son of Qing Huang, nicknamed Big Pipe."

"Big pipe?"

Hearing the prompt from the riddle elf, Chen Lin's heart suddenly moved.

He didn't know who Qinghuang was, but he did know a scene related to the pipe.

He immediately recalled the circumstances of the pipe scene.

Regardless of whether it's right or not, let's figure out the answer first.

While recalling, he spoke slowly.

"King Yin has a total of eighty-one concubines on the list, including the seventy-two concubines of the Three Palaces and Sixth Court. The most coquettish one is the Fish Concubine, who has no affair with the general."

"No fornication?"

The riddle elf seemed dissatisfied with this answer.

But the body began to collapse.

It pouted.

"It's really boring. There isn't even a hot topic. It's so disappointing."

After saying that, he disappeared.

Chen Lin's consciousness exited the riddle space.

There are seven light groups floating in front of me.

Correct answer?

He himself was a little surprised.

It seems that the natural ability still plays a role.

Chen Lin stretched out his hand to put away the diminutive coin, looked left and right, and flew towards the other side.

The lights on the river have basically been inspected, leaving only the part on the other side.

Hope there are still some gains.

The body fell on the shore.

Chen Lin started from scratch, not missing a single lantern, and used his natural abilities to explore them all.

As for whether it would attract attention, he couldn't care that much.

If this is against the rules, the riddle elf will ask it when you guessed the riddle before.

Since he successfully received the wanshan coin reward, it means that the method is within the allowed range. After all, he is just sensing the 'affinity' of the lantern, rather than knowing the answer in advance.

soon.

Chen Lin stopped in front of a statue.

The shape is very strange, you can't tell what it is, it looks like a human but not a human, it looks like an animal but not an animal, and the whole thing is glowing.

But it doesn’t have a sense of beauty.

The statue has only one hand, which is slender and slender, stretched out flatly, holding a lantern like a bun on the palm.

Chen Lin stimulates his natural abilities.

In the long river of destiny, the water flow is hazy, but there are occasional slight fluctuations, hitting the fish of destiny, giving him a comfortable feeling of being massaged.

This is a form of divination feedback.

Explain that what you want to do will develop in a good way.

If it is bad, then he will feel uncomfortable.

certainly.

This kind of feedback is very vague and cannot be used as an accurate basis, but it is better than nothing.

Spread the long river of destiny.

Chen Lin stepped forward and touched the lantern.

In such a strange scene, his natural ability can only react slightly, which is already at its limit. It is impossible to divine more information.

But the success of the first three times gave him a certain degree of confidence.

"Haha, this friend is so courageous. He even dares to try the lantern riddles with a price. I admire him, I admire him!"

As soon as Chen Lin raised his palm, a loud voice reached his ears.

He frowned and stopped moving.

Look at the person coming.

He is a strong man eight feet tall and wearing black armor. He looks like a general who kills enemies on the battlefield.

"What do you mean by what Xiongtai said?"

Chen Lin cupped his hands and asked.

He has found out clearly that in this scene, there is no punishment for guessing lantern riddles.

It's just that after failing once, you are not allowed to guess again.

The strong man looked at the steamed bun lantern.

He looked at Chen Lin again.

Wengsheng said: "I believe that fellow Taoist monks are also human monks, so I reminded you that all lanterns with characters here are special. Although there will be no punishment for failing the riddle, it will affect your life trajectory."

"Affects the trajectory of life?"

Chen Lin looked at the other party, his eyes full of doubt.

After checking along the way, he also inquired about many tourists, but no one mentioned this.

"Don't worry, I won't lie to you. As for whether you believe it or not, it's up to you. You can also try it yourself."

The strong man smiled, turned and left.

Chen Lin's eyes flashed.

He immediately asked: "Fellow Taoist, can you tell me your name and where you practice?"

"Wu Gang."

The strong man didn't look back. He raised his hand while answering and disappeared into the crowd.

Chen Lin touched his chin.

It was hard to say whether this person had a purpose when he suddenly appeared, but he had to pay attention to the other person's reminder.

It is better to believe that it exists than to believe that it does not exist.

Think about it.

Chen Lin decided to give up first, continue to search for other lanterns through induction, and continue to inquire about the situation.

Two hours later.

Chen Lin, who failed to sense the new lantern, returned to the statue.

Most of the day has passed since the Lantern Appreciation Festival. Although the time is still very long, most of the lanterns on the bright side have been viewed.

No more targets were found.

If you continue to dig deeper, you have to go to nearby shops, cruise ships, or even underwater.

That will take a lot of time.

So Chen Lin still wants to crack this lantern.

The most important thing is that he inquired about many people and did not hear the same statement as Wu Gang.

All tourists who are willing to communicate say that all lanterns are normal and there is no penalty for answering the lantern riddles incorrectly.

He didn't see Wu Gang again.

The other party is mysterious and untrustworthy.

He pondered for a long time.

Chen Lin still chooses to believe in his own talent.

And if what Wu Gang said is true, then if the riddle is guessed correctly, the amount of coins given will definitely be more.

Maybe he can be ranked among the top twelve.

Walk forward slowly.

After observing the bun lantern for a while, Chen Lin gently placed his hand on it.

The lantern trembled slightly.

But this time, instead of entering the elven space, a white light appeared, covering his entire body.

Immediately afterwards.

The statue's closed eyes opened.

Turning his head to look at Chen Lin's position.

Chen Lin's eyes flashed.

Just such a change is enough to show that it is unusual and that Wu Gang is really not a rumour.

But he wasn't in a hurry either.

When the lantern is activated, there is no way out, and the answer may not be impossible.

"A judge?"

The statue speaks human words.

Just one sentence made Chen Lin's heart sink.

The other party's tone didn't seem very friendly, which made him inevitably suspect that Grand Duke Bai Yueguang was a traitor.

It would be troublesome if this were the case.

With Grand Duke Bai Yueguang's strength, whether he has the Judge's emblem or not, the outcome cannot be changed.

He must die.

But the statue gave no further indication.

After taking a look at Chen Lin.

He said quietly: "Please listen to the riddle."

"My whole life is one thought. I love one person all my life. I would rather be with thousands of strands than lower my head. I will protect every thought and my heart will be chained to the building. If my heart changes in this life, I will meet each other without asking for anything."

"Guess someone please."

The statue made a gesture of invitation.

Chen Lin looked confused.

This time it’s really a normal lantern riddle

Can you let him guess where to go?

First of all, it can't be an anagram.

Because the characters in the Nightmare Realm themselves are all kinds of strange and diverse, and only with the blessing of the rules of the Nightmare Realm can they be understood by everyone.

But it definitely won’t work for setting up word puzzles.

So this riddle is descriptive.

It is necessary to correspond to the characteristics of a certain character according to the meaning of each sentence.

"Isn't this kind of puzzle too broad? There should be some hints, right?"

After thinking for a while to no avail, Chen Lin could only make a request.

To his surprise, the statue actually nodded.

Please...you...collect_()

"Yes, but every time you are reminded, the reward will drop by one level, and as long as the reminder mode is turned on, it cannot be stopped. Once the reward drops to a negative number, you need to use waning coins to make up for it. If the waning coins are insufficient, you need to accept the Grand Duke's mission."

Chen Lin suddenly felt enlightened.

So that’s it!

No wonder Wu Gang said that there is a price for this lantern riddle, while other tourists said that there is no punishment. Both statements are actually correct, but it depends on the individual choice of the riddle guesser.

"Can I ask what the reward is for a question-and-answer pair, and how many prompts are needed before the reward becomes negative?"

Chen Lin hesitated.

At this point there is a dilemma.

If I give up, let alone ranking in the top twelve, I'm afraid I won't even get a good treasure. It's even more wishful thinking to exchange for the opportunity to use the Mirror of Rebirth.

But if you agree to the prompts, you may get deeper and deeper into trouble.

Just ask.

The statue nodded again.

"The maximum reward is one thousand Lanshan coins, which will be reduced by ten times for each prompt. The physical reward will be reduced by one level for each prompt."

Are there any physical rewards?

Chen Lin suddenly became interested.

The physical rewards given by such a high-level puzzle are definitely not too bad, and you can choose according to the meaning. There is a high chance of getting useful treasures.

"If the reward drops to a negative number, what type of tasks need to be performed?"

Since the other party was willing to answer, Chen Lin continued to ask.

The statue has an expressionless face.

"The task is to find out information. The more negative you are, the more information you need to find out."

"If you cannot complete the task within the specified time, you will be imprisoned in the River of Lights and exchange labor for freedom. It will take a long time and a certain amount of opportunity."

"alright."

The statue glanced at Chen Lin.

"Because this is your first time participating in the Lantern Festival, I will explain to you, but time is running out. If you don't make a choice before the hourglass falls, it will be considered a failure."

Chen Lin didn't ask any more questions.

There are hourglass shadows in all lantern riddle spaces, and most of them have been filled out at this moment. There is no time to ask, and the other party will not give him any more answers.

“I choose prompt!”

After careful consideration, Chen Lin decided to continue guessing.

In order to deal with Wan Zhencang, it is acceptable to take some risks, as long as failure is not obliterated.

"Please listen to the prompt."

The statue spoke immediately.

"This is a man who is willing to give everything for love!"

Chen Lin immediately frowned.

The prompt is too general and cannot be analyzed at all.

In the vast world, there are people who are willing to give everything for love, and there are countless people in the nightmare world.

wrong!

Suddenly, Chen Lin's heart moved.

You can't just rely on the other party's prompts, but you must also combine your natural abilities.

There is feedback from his natural ability, indicating that this lantern riddle is related to him. Among the people related to him, who has given everything for love?

Ready to come out.

Kaguya!

Chen Lin recalled the puzzle.

A single thought in a lifetime, loving one person in a lifetime, I would rather have thousands of strands than bow my head, I will protect you every thought, my heart will be chained to the building, if my heart changes in this life, I will meet each other without asking for anything.

I felt almost the same immediately.

But it's not Kaguya, but Niu Niu.

Because the information is basically consistent with Niuniu.

In Niu Niu's previous life, she traveled through all the worlds for her true love and turned into a scarecrow.

Every thought is guarded, that is to say, a guardian.

After combing through it repeatedly, Chen Lin felt that there was no problem.

The only puzzling thing is that I don't know if this riddle is a coincidence or intentional.

There is not much left in the hourglass.

There was no time to think too much, Chen Lin immediately gave the answer.

"It's the scarecrow guardian Niuniu."

He did not mention Kaguya's name in any superfluous way. Since the word "guardian" was mentioned in the puzzle, it has nothing to do with Kaguya in the previous life.

"Correct answer."

The statue's eyes flashed, seeming a little surprised.

Chen Lin felt relieved.

The natural ability is indeed useful, and the prediction is successful again.

Although the rewards have been reduced by one level, you can still get 100 Lanshan coins and have the right to redeem physical rewards.

Huge gain!

But Chen Lin was also secretly alert.

You can’t do too many adventurous things like this. How can you often walk along the river without getting your shoes wet? You can’t leave everything to luck.

"There is a follow-up to the lantern riddle, would you like to answer it?"

The statue spoke again.

"Follow up?"

Chen Lin was startled when he heard this.

Then he asked: "What are the rules?"

"The reward for correct answers goes up one level, and for wrong answers goes down one level."

"continue!"

This time Chen Lin did not hesitate.

He can bear the punishment for failure. Once he answers correctly, he is very likely to obtain high-level treasures, which is in his interest.

Because ordinary treasures cannot solve his dilemma.

and.

Chen Lin can probably guess what the next question will be.

It was probably asking who Niuniu loved.

This can be gleaned from the puzzle just now.

The main purpose of the lantern riddles here is to find out information. Even if it is not, it must be related to Niu Niu, otherwise it cannot be called a follow-up.

"Who does Scarecrow Niuniu love?"

The statue asked the question.

The content was just as Chen Lin expected.

In fact, he didn't know this problem. All traces of the devil's existence had been forcibly erased.

Not only he doesn't know, but others don't know either.

But he can give the answer.

"It's me she loves!"

Chen Lin pointed to his nose.

No matter who Niuniu loved in her previous life, or whether she regarded him as that person, at least until the other person didn't find out the problem, she loved him.

So this answer can also be considered correct.

However, the name Chen Lin is too popular, and there are too many duplicate names. In order to prevent loopholes, I might as well just say it is himself.

This is also a trial.

He wanted to make sure that the Grand Duke of White Moonlight knew who the devil was.

Finished.

Chen Lin stared at the statue closely.

This is what he thinks, but the right to interpret lies with the other party.

The statue looked disappointed.

He shook his head and said: "Nonsense, wrong answer... Huh?"

As soon as he finished speaking, the statue noticed that his body began to fade and gradually disintegrated.

"This is impossible, how could this happen..."

The statue made an incredible sound.

But it soon disappeared without a trace.

The surrounding light mask also dissipated.

Eleven light groups were floating in front of Chen Lin.

Ten of them are golden, and one is colorful and larger than the normal light group.

"Ah, someone solved the statue riddle!"

A cry of surprise sounded.

Chen Lin looked stern.

Without bothering to check any more, he immediately put away all the light groups and flew away into the distance. (End of this chapter)
