Chapter 279 Outsmarting the Evil One
Biquge www.xbiquge.bz, the fastest update of the seduction of concubines: the king's fifth princess! Wei Iris really enjoys the feeling of being the boss. She sits in the iron cage with her legs crossed, and a trace of sadness suddenly appears on her face. She has been here for several days, but still hasn't seen the evil people mentioned by her sisters. It seems that they don't know these evil people. She doesn't want to eat too much and let these evil people slaughter her. As the saying goes, knowing yourself and knowing the enemy will win every battle. She wants to find out some information. "Why does the boss look so sad?" Liu Qianqian, who was massaging her legs, asked. Wei Iris's mind flashed with inspiration, and she suddenly smiled and said, "Eating and sleeping every day, sleeping and eating, it's really boring. Why don't we play some games?" After a while, a burst of laughter came from the iron cage, and the women all put their hands on their heads and squatted, muttering something. "Little white rabbit squats, little white rabbit squats, after the little white rabbit squats, the big bad wolf squats."
"Big bad wolf squats, big bad wolf squats, after the big bad wolf squats, the big bear squats."
"Big bear squats, big bear squats, after the big bear squats, the little fox squats."
The black-clothed guards couldn't help but look over.
Seeing that the time was right, Wei Iris took the opportunity to say, "Sisters, you must be tired. Why don't I give you some brain teasers?"
"Okay, okay." The women's eyes showed excitement, as if they had forgotten that they were lambs waiting to be slaughtered.
Wei Iris said with a smile, "If there are five apples to be divided among seven people, how should they be divided?"
"Of course, let the eldest eat first, and then the rest will be divided among us." Liu Qianqian smiled.
This guy is really filial, and he is a teachable child. Wei Iris smiled and shook her head: "We are all sisters, so we should share happiness and adversity. Let's share apples." "Give me a knife, and I will naturally divide the apples into seven equal parts." Wu Que'er said confidently. She used to be the butcher's wife, but later the butcher became rich and wanted to marry a concubine. She did not allow it, so the butcher gave her a bowl of magic soup and sold it here. She swore that if she could walk out of the Evil Valley alive, she would definitely chop the butcher's husband and the concubine to make soup. "But those apples are of different sizes, and Sister Wu's knife may not know how to count them." Wei Iris said with a smile. "Then how to divide them?" The sisters asked in unison. Wei Iris smiled and said, "Of course, squeeze them into apple juice." Seeing the shocked expressions of the sisters, Wei Iris realized that there was no juicer here. "Okay, okay, change one. Winter melon, cucumber, watermelon, and pumpkin can all be eaten. What melon can't be eaten?" Wei Iris asked with a smile. Everyone looked at each other, as if there was nothing that couldn't be eaten.
"Oh, Sister Wei, you better tell us quickly, we are all so anxious." Liu Qianqian complained. If she didn't know the answer, her whole heart would be like being scratched by a little hand.
Wei Iris poked her head with a smile: "Of course it's a fool."
Everyone laughed loudly, and even the expressionless guards standing by twitched their mouths. At this time, they didn't realize that they were standing very close to the iron cage, just to hear these brain teasers, which were simply unheard of for them.
Wei Iris glanced at the guards and showed a determined smile at the corners of her mouth. She had a lot of brain teasers in her mind, and it seemed that it was time to set up suspense.
"A caterpillar walked onto a pile of cow dung, but found only six footprints after getting off the ground. Why?"
Wu Que'er said in confusion: "Don't caterpillars have eight legs?"
"Yes, Sister Wei, don't keep us bored, tell us quickly." Liu Qianqian said anxiously.
Wei Iris had a sly smile in her eyes: "Well, we'll talk about this tomorrow."
Her eyes quickly swept across the faces of the guards, revealing disappointment on their faces.
In the room, Medicine Saint and Chess Maniac listened to the guards' report, and both of them showed solemn colors on their faces. They were all self-proclaimed smart people, so they were naturally trying every possible way to think about the answer, and they were better than one.
But after thinking hard for a long time, both of them sighed.
"It seems that this girl is indeed interesting, but why are there only six footprints?" Chess Maniac laughed.
The Medicine Saint stroked his beard and pointed at the man in black: "Go ask."
Chess Maniac smiled viciously: "Why do you need to send someone to ask? Just give her a heart-eating and bone-rotting pill, let her live a life worse than death, and she will naturally tell you."
"Wouldn't it be a pity if such an interesting person died?" Medicine Saint showed a meaningful smile on his face.
Wei Iris couldn't help laughing at the solemn-looking guard in front of her. It was just a brain teaser, but why was he so nervous? It was really interesting.
She concluded that it must be boring in this evil valley, otherwise those evil people would not have come up with a game of experimenting on living people. Those evil people would definitely be interested in the brain teasers she came up with.
Wei Iris smiled and said, "You can let me tell you the answer, but you need to answer me three questions."
The black-clothed guard whispered something in the ear of the guard next to him, and the man left in a hurry. I think he must have gone to ask his master for instructions.
"Anyway, she is a dying person, why doesn't Lord Medicine Saint agree to her." The chess maniac dropped a piece.
Lord Medicine Saint waved his hand: "Okay, if she asks anything, just answer it truthfully."
The guard in black nodded after receiving the answer: "Okay, you can ask."
Wei Yuanwei thought for a moment and then asked: "Who is the owner of the Valley of the Wicked?"
"Of course it's the city lord." When the black-clothed guard mentioned the word city lord, he showed respect on his face.
Wei Yuanwei was annoyed. This black-clothed guard looked a little dull, but he was actually very cunning. That's right. How many people who have lived in the Valley of the Wicked for a long time are good? It seems you should be careful when asking questions yourself.
"Then what is your master going to do to us next?"
"Of course they have gone through layers of screening." The guard snorted coldly.
Her guess was indeed correct. These villains must be using them to do some invisible things, but before that they will select the strongest ones.
Wei Yuanwei felt a little uneasy: "How many of us can pass the screening?"
To be more precise, how many people can survive.
A meaningful smile appeared on the guard's face, and he answered ambiguously: "Maybe all of them, maybe none of them."
In other words, as long as they don't break through the many tests, they may die here. The reason why they keep buying people is just to find some people who are valuable in their minds.
Wei Yuanwei's face showed a look of despair, and she said lightly: "I understand."
