Chapter 252
With Suan Wudao's question, all the officials in the Jinluan Palace frowned.
"Chickens and rabbits are in the same cage. There are sixty heads and two hundred legs. How many chickens and rabbits are there..."
All the officials looked at each other in bewilderment.
In the Seven Kingdoms where Confucianism flourished and poetry and songs were popular, not many people studied mathematics. For them, this question was a bit beyond the scope.
"Difficult!"
"Too difficult!"
"This question is simply unheard of!"
"Suan Wudao is worthy of being the chief of mathematics in Dachu. He asked a math question of this difficulty. I just thought about it and felt that my cerebellum was about to grow a brain!"
"Sixty heads and two hundred legs. I can't figure it out even if I rack my brains!"
In the Jinluan Palace, noisy voices suddenly sounded.
All officials felt headaches and scalps tingling. Even Cui Xinghe and Shangguan Wan'er, who were quite good at mathematics, found it difficult.
Wu Zhao's eyes were locked tightly, with a moment of thought in her eyes.
She had also listened to the lectures of the great scholar of mathematics in the palace, but she had never seen such a strange question.
Chickens and rabbits were locked in a cage together, and the question was based on the number of heads and feet. It was even impossible to solve this problem.
Wu Zhao's eyes fell on Gao Yang, with a little worry.
Can Gao Yang solve this problem?
"Mr. Gao, how about this question?"
Suan Wudao finished speaking, and looked at Gao Yang with a pair of proud eyes.
He touched the beard on his chin, and was obviously very proud of this question!
Gao Yang looked at Suan Wudao with a pair of eyes, his face was weird.
He couldn't help but sigh.
"Difficult!"
"It's really too difficult!"
"As expected of you, you are the great mathematician of Chu, Gao Yang really admires you, but I don't understand why the chicken and rabbit are locked together?"
Suan Wudao laughed heartily when he heard this.
"Master Gao, don't worry about the details. It's just a math problem!"
"In that case, don't say that I bullied Master Gao!"
"If Master Gao can solve it, I will become your disciple. But if Master Gao loses, I don't ask for much, because in my mind, this is just a competition. I just want Master Gao not to be too arrogant in the future!"
"I just want some food. The amount of food doesn't need to be too much. Just a chessboard, put a grain of rice in the first grid, and then double it successively. Master Gao can also ask for help from the civil and military officials of Daqian. As long as you can figure it out within half an hour, Master Gao will win!"
Suan Wudao spoke slowly, with a hint of murderous intent hidden in his turbid eyes.
As long as Gao Yang agreed, Gao Yang would be dead!
It's easy to dodge a spear, but how to prevent this murderous intent from the math?
As these words rang out, Wu Zhao and Shangguan Wan'er's eyes suddenly turned cold.
If this had happened before, they might have really been fooled.
Gao Yang talked about the relationship between land and population in the world, and he used the rice on the chessboard. This chessboard seemed to be filled with very little, but in the end, it was not enough food for the entire Daqian treasury or even the seven countries!
This Suan Wudao is really vicious!
Wu Zhao's phoenix eyes were cold, and she was murderous.
But before she scolded Suan Wudao for being shameless, she heard Gao Yang's voice.
"Old Master Suan is upright and upright, and I admire him. From this point of view, I have taken a big advantage, but I have never been a person who takes advantage!"
"Why not do this? If I can solve it by chance, I will use the same conditions as Old Master Suan, and increase the chessboard by 100 meters in sequence. At Suan Lao's age, how can I accept your kneeling? This is too short of life!"
As soon as these words came out.
Suan Wudao was stunned!
Gao Yang didn't even want to take advantage of him.
He stared at Gao Yang's face, and sighed in his heart that Gao Yang hit the mark by accident!
After all, kneeling down to become a disciple would still give him a chance to live, but if the second condition was to place rice on the chessboard, he would definitely not be able to take out that amount of food, and he would definitely have to die to apologize!
Although Gao Yang was full of tricks, he still had some character.
Suan Wudao nodded secretly.
Xu Xuanji couldn't listen any more.
A man who could burn rattan armor soldiers and kill enemies with bacteria, was he still afraid of shortening his life?
Damn, he guaranteed with his life that there was definitely a trap!
Chu Ningyu's beautiful eyes were cold, staring at Gao Yang's face. She naturally knew the cruelty of placing rice on the chessboard, but Gao Yang's reaction made her feel something was wrong.
Da Chu and Da Qian were already at odds with each other. On the ground was Da Chu's first poet, who was angered to death and forced to commit suicide by Gao Yang. Da Chu was against the king of kings. It was obvious that Da Chu was looking for a meeting place, so how could it give up easily!
As the number one poisoner in Daqian, how could Gao Yang not think of this?
And based on her understanding of Gao Yang, Gao Yang should beIf you don't take advantage of an opportunity, you are a jerk.
No!
This Gao Yang is cheating!
At this moment, Chu Ningyu tensed up and felt a great crisis.
This is a lesson from two lives!
But before she could speak to stop him, Suan Wudao's voice suddenly sounded.
"Since Mr. Gao doesn't want to take advantage of me, I naturally have no objection. Just follow Mr. Gao!"
At this moment, the bad feeling in Chu Ningyu's heart became stronger.
"The stakes are small, but the reputation is great!"
"I have to think about it carefully."
Gao Yang spoke for a while and began to pace in the Golden Palace.
Chu Ningyu walked to Suan Wudao's side, and she said solemnly, "Master Suan, you must be careful, Gao Yang's reaction is too right, it seems like a trick!"
Suan Wudao said calmly, "Don't panic, Princess, mathematics is different from poetry and couplets. There is only one correct answer, no means no!"
"Gao Yang, I can't figure it out!"
Seeing Suan Wudao's confidence, and the bet had been reached, she couldn't pour cold water on him anymore, and could only pray in her heart that everything would go well.
Wu Zhao looked at Gao Yang pacing around in the Golden Palace, with a thoughtful look on her face.
Gao Yang knew the dangers of the chessboard, but he still agreed to the bet. It was obvious that he had the answer to the chicken and rabbit in the same cage, but why didn't Gao Yang speak, but pretended to be thinking hard?
What bad water is Gao Yang holding in his stomach?
Wu Zhao locked her phoenix eyes on Gao Yang, feeling strange.
Then, Wu Zhao saw Gao Yang approach Cui Xinghe.
Cui Xinghe was thinking about the answer, and then he found a figure in front of him, it was Gao Yang.
"Mr. Gao, I am only good at poetry and songs, I am really incapable of learning this one!"
"You are too impulsive!"
Cui Xinghe whispered, after all, admitting loudly in public that he couldn't think of it was a very embarrassing thing, which was unbearable for the arrogant Cui Xinghe.
"It's okay, I just happened to walk here. This is the center of the Five Mirrors and Eight Diagrams. With the Daqian Dragon Qi, it is easier to think standing here. Cui Zhuangyuan doesn't need to pay attention."
"Just don't disturb me thinking."
Gao Yang lowered his voice and said seriously.
Cui Xinghe looked puzzled.
What is Gao Yang doing?
After a while, Cui Xinghe thought about moving away when he noticed that Gao Yang had no sign of leaving. Gao Yang suddenly asked in a low voice, "Cui Zhuangyuan, have you eaten today?"
Cui Xinghe was shocked.
Gao Yang's sudden concern made him a little flustered.
At such a critical moment, with only half an hour left, Gao Yang came to ask him if he had eaten breakfast?
"Master Gao, what do you mean?"
Cui Xinghe noticed something was wrong, but he didn't know what was wrong.
Gao Yang showed a simple smile on his face and said casually, "Cui Zhuangyuan, don't be nervous. I'm just asking casually."
Then Gao Yang turned around and strode away.
He continued to think hard, looking like this question was really difficult.
Only Cui Xinghe was left with a puzzled face and messy in the wind.
