"Well, then please listen to the question."
The Momen and the others listened obediently, and a needle could be heard in the quiet corridor.
"There are ten birds in the tree, Xiao Ming shot one dead with his bow, how many birds are left?"
This question is easy!
"Nine..." The representative of the Demon Sect was overjoyed, and just about to blurt out, he suddenly changed his words: "There is no one left!"
After saying that, he secretly wiped his cold sweat. This door god is really cunning in asking questions, but fortunately, he reacted quickly, otherwise he would get his way again.
He looked at Shimen confidently.
"Wrong." Shimen said suddenly.
The Demon Sect representative was stunned for a moment before he realized: "Why, why..." His face was full of disbelief. Could it be the answer? How could it be...
On the side, a big man with five big and three thick demons said angrily: "I knew there were nine birds left, why don't you count with your fingers!"
The voice of the book demon who was about to explain was taken aback.
The body of the representative of the Demon Sect froze suddenly, he raised his head to look at Shimen, and said in a bitter voice, "Is the answer nine birds?"
At this moment, he only felt like a clown on the stage, conscious of being unparalleled in strategy, but in the eyes of others, he was just a ridiculous fool who pretended to be clever.
At this time, a voice came from the stone gate: "No, it's a bird."
The eyes of the representative of the demon gate suddenly lit up, and he glanced at the big man on the side with disdain, and asked Shimen, "Why? Shouldn't the birds be scared away?"
"That's why I said that you are a little clever, but you don't have great wisdom."
The book demon lazily said: "Because Xiao Ming is a bird."
Everyone looked at each other.
And this kind of operation?
"Xiao Ming... isn't he a human?" the Demon Sect representative asked cautiously.
"Xiao Ming is a bird demon, isn't that strange?"
"It's not strange, it's not strange." The representative of Momen said with a dry smile.
The big man from the Momen scratched his ears and cheeks, and said with his fingers: "Why not nine, there are still nine birds out of ten, there are ten birds on the tree, one died, and there are nine more." ..."
"Oh, by the way, Xiao Ming is a bird."
He flicked off the pressed little thumb and counted it carefully.
"No, that should be ten! How could it be one?"
"It must be my posture is wrong."
The big man took off his shoes and socks, and sat by the side of the corridor: "I counted my toes, and I should be right. There were ten birds on the tree, and Xiao Ming shot one, and there were one, two, three, four...nine, and Xiao Ming was one." Birds, ten."
"Ten, it's clearly ten birds! How come there is only one? Did you all make a mistake?" Suddenly, a big man's high-pitched voice sounded from behind the Demon Dao crowd.
The expressions of everyone in the Mo Dao froze suddenly, wishing they had never seen this guy before.
Shimen, who was about to speak just now, fell silent.
"Well, Lord Door God, don't pay attention to him, he's just a dry eater." The representative of Momen said cautiously.
"Actually, there are still a lot of smart people in our Demon Sect." He looked at the big guy sitting on the ground counting his toes with some doubts.
"Okay then, let's move on to the next question."
At this moment, for some reason, the people in the demonic way suddenly felt that the door god who asked the question suddenly became energetic...
Seems a little excited?
Is it so confident that we can't solve all the puzzles?
The hearts of everyone in the Demonic Dao were filled with bursts of suppressed refusal to admit defeat.
The goalkeeper is indeed very excited and very confident.
As for the answer to this question...
If all the birds are gone and there is one on the ground, then the answer is one (dead bird).
If the other party answers one, then there are two more, because Xiao Ming is a bird.
If the other party ran away after answering, then the answers of one and two can be regarded as the correct answer.
If the other party answers that there are two left, then Xiao Ming is a person, not a bird.
If the other party answers nine...
That only shows that, in fact, mathematics is quite difficult.
At the gate of the Huang family.
Looking at the ruined garden, Su Sheng seemed to have noticed something, looking in the direction of the imperial city, his expression was a little moved.
"It seems that the people from the Demon Sect finally chose to do it when I was not around..."
"I just don't know how they're going to prepare this time." The book of riddles I gave to the book demon should be quite substantial. "
"I just don't know why the book demon is so excited?"
Su Sheng felt the slight vibration of the Code of Ten Thousand Monsters in his mind, which was a little hard to understand.
In the imperial city, in the dark corridor.
The door god's Youyou voice came: "Hey, I made a mistake again. In fact, you can enter without guessing riddles. However, I have a few themes here, and I need you to improve them. I wonder if you are interested?"
"Huh? Can't create?"
"The person who finishes first, I can let it in~~"

White House.
At this moment, most of the other six aristocratic families who are away have gathered. The seven aristocratic families are already united in the same spirit, and they have already formed an alliance in secret. At this moment, they are even more united under the crisis.
Although the seven aristocratic families are scattered throughout the Great Zhou, Su Sheng's movement is too great, and these aristocratic families have their own channels for obtaining information.
