The female voice in the red windbreaker said:
“Suppose there are 50 hunters in Yanjing Town. They are all the most logical students in Duoyu College. Each of them is raising a child, but the hunters are withdrawn and will not communicate with the other 49 hunters.
One day, the dean of the academy sent them a message telling them that there was a ghost in the town, among their children, but the hunters could only find out whether other hunters' children were ghosts, but could not tell whether their own children were ghosts. They could visit other hunters' homes during the day to observe whether other people's children were ghosts, but they could not shoot other hunters' children. They had to decide whether to shoot their own children after returning home at night.
The director required them to kill their children immediately that night if they knew they were ghosts, and they were not allowed to disobey.
So... after 50 hunters learned that there was a ghost in the town.
On the first night, no hunter fired;
The next night, no hunters fired;
On the third night... ..five gunshots were heard in the town.
Excuse me, how many ghosts are there in this town? And why? "
After the man in the red windbreaker finished speaking, he floated in the air, waiting for Cheng Shaofeng's answer.
After listening to it, Cheng Shaofeng only had one symbol in his mind at this moment:
(;´・`)
Hunter? Child? Ghost? (×)
Elderly, subway, cell phone! (√)
How come I have absolutely no clue
You can't see whether your own child is a ghost, and you can't shoot other children who are ghosts, so why would you shoot
Why didn't they shoot on the first two days? Why did they shoot on the third day
Why did he fire five shots
'Ah! My head is so messy!!!'
Cheng Shaofeng's mouth twitched a few times, and he said calmly:
"Can you repeat the question again?"
The man in the red windbreaker repeated the question again, and Cheng Shaofeng memorized it all, and then... his mind was still a mess.
The format of this question reminded him of a classic question on Tieba: A bear falls from a height of 20 meters. It takes 2 seconds. Is the bear male or female
This is too outrageous!
Cheng Shaofeng thought for a long time but couldn't find the trick to the problem.
An idea suddenly occurred to him, and he called out to Zero in his mind: "Zero, do you know the answer to this question?"
Zero: "Master, this question is not in Zero's database, and cannot be answered..."
Damn! It can’t even solve a reasoning problem, and it’s called artificial intelligence
waste!
If Cheng Shaofeng doesn't want to be trapped here and wait for death by a red-clothed ghost, he must rely on his own brain to solve this problem.
The red windbreaker ghost in front of him was obviously much more powerful than he understood. He and several players could not contend with their current strength. Once he was trapped here... the day when the energy of the base was exhausted would be the anniversary of his death.
Cheng Shaofeng calmed down and began to think about every detail of the question...
'There are four prerequisites: 1. Hunters are all smart people with strong logical ability; 2. Hunters will not have any communication with each other; 3. Hunters can only see whether other people's children are ghosts; 4. Hunters can only shoot their own children... '
'The result was that on Christmas Eve two days ago, five shots were fired on the third day... ... Ask how many ghosts there are in the town.'
'Then the key to this question is...'
'that is... '
'MD, why do I feel like this question lacks conditions! '
The corner of Cheng Shaofeng's mouth twitched, and a burst of resentment from a poor student gushed out.
He also remembered that when he was in high school, during a final exam, a top student suddenly raised his hand and said, "Teacher! There is a mistake in question 13. A condition is missing!"
The teacher looked at the test for a while and nodded: "Well, this question is indeed wrong... Everyone don't need to do this question for now."
Cheng Shaofeng fell into deep thought as he looked at the answer he had already calculated.
Now the situation is reversed. He feels that he lacks the conditions, but... The ghost has said the question twice. The content is all here. He can only answer the result.
Seeing Cheng Shaofeng in deep thought, the red windbreaker was also floating in the air, waiting quietly.
After 10 minutes, tears were almost dripping down Cheng Shaofeng's forehead.
The red windbreaker urged: "Have you figured it out? This kind of question... Even the students of your Duoyu Academy can't answer it? Hehehe~ I used to like your academy..."
"Since you can't figure it out... then you can stay with me. I'll let you go when I figure it out."
The red windbreaker opened, and black mist poured out, about to take Cheng Shaofeng away.
“Wait!”
Cheng Shaofeng stretched out a hand to block in front of him, with the corners of his mouth slightly raised.
“I solved this problem!”
Black mist lingered in the air.
"Oh? Then tell me the answer, quickly!"
It sounded extremely urgent, and with an undisguised joy.
Cheng Shaofeng nodded and reviewed his reasoning again.
'The key to solving this problem is not so many preconditions, but the result! Five shots were fired! Since hunters can only shoot their own children, five shots were fired on the third night, which means all five hunters fired! As hunters with perfect logical reasoning ability, they must have a way to know how many ghosts there are in the town, so on the third night, the hunters used their ability to deduce that there were five ghosts and shot them together. Although I can't understand how the hunters deduced, judging from the result, this is the most reasonable explanation.'
Cheng Shaofeng felt that with his logical ability... only this explanation could answer this question.
But vaguely... he felt that this question might not be that simple.
"There are a total of..."
Just as he was about to give the answer, the door behind him opened.
Forgive Hat and Xiaoxiao pushed the door and walked in.
"My Lord! We are here to rescue you!"
"Evil demons and monsters, retreat immediately!"
The two men rushed towards the man in red windbreaker with maces in hand.
Cheng Shaofeng: (‧̣̥̇꒪່⍢꒪່)
"Don't... "
After 10 seconds.
Cheng Shaofeng took a look at the two people who were struggling in the air pulled by the black mist and covered his eyes.
"Don't be impulsive. We are just discussing issues in a friendly manner." (Chinese)
Cheng Shaofeng seamlessly switched to the wasteland language: "Um... Sister Hong, please put them down. They are my... our Duoyu Academy's preparatory students. They came out with me to gain experience."
"Oh? No wonder you were able to walk out of my ethereal fantasy... Your academy has recruited two more good talents... Especially this little girl, who has the potential to become a professor." The man in the red windbreaker put the two people down.
Then he asked urgently: "So, what is the answer to this question?"
Cheng Shaofeng looked at the two players he had carefully selected, and recalled his ordinary 20 years... and smiled.
"This question... is not difficult. I can tell you the answer directly, but that would not be very interesting. Why don't I take this opportunity to test my two preparatory students with this question and see if they can answer correctly. I want you to see how capable our preparatory students are... How do you think?"
Red Ghost: "Interesting... Anyway, I have been waiting for 10 years, so I don't mind waiting a little longer. The Duoyu Academy, which claims to suppress all energy systems in the world with technology... is it really as magical as the legend says? If your preparatory students can answer this question of mine, you will gain my respect."
"Are you stupid?" (Chinese)
Red Ghost: "What do you mean?"
"Oh, a native language, which means... a deal. You don't understand? Weren't you able to communicate with my preparatory students before?"
The red-clothed ghost chuckled: "Haha~ That's not me communicating with you, but the virtual energy that makes you hallucinate. Everyone's hallucination is different, even I can't control it. Of course... If you are willing to open your mind and let me enter your brain, perhaps we can communicate directly with each other."
"That's not necessary!"
Cheng Shaofeng politely declined.
Knowing that the red-clothed ghost couldn't understand what they were saying, Cheng Shaofeng felt a little relieved.
He repeated the red ghost's question in Chinese to the two confused people nearby.
"This is the final test given to us by the Red Ghost. If you can answer it... you will receive a high reward and a base-exclusive title."
"If you fail... I will be imprisoned here. Then you two will return to the base, contact the other three soldiers, and find a way to crack this town... I will give orders to Zero. When you die, the resurrection clone program will be activated directly. All soldiers must ensure that the raw materials in the clone warehouse are sufficient so that you can be resurrected.
It's just that without me by your side, you can't store your body data, and you will have to start over after you die... ... When the resources in the clone production warehouse exceed your five resurrections, I will wake up more soldiers, and you must bring new soldiers to find a way to crack this place! Save me! Otherwise, when the time comes, the natural disaster base... will disappear, and you will fall into a permanent sleep. Do you hear me!"
Cheng Shaofeng has prepared for the worst.
Forgive Hat for a sudden shock.
Will NPCs be imprisoned? Will they fall into a permanent sleep? Wouldn't that mean their accounts will be banned
Is the plot of this world... so exciting
Xiaoxiao also showed an expression of disbelief: "Is this a plot choice route? Two plots... going in different directions?"
Forgiveness Hat said solemnly, "It seems so... If we succeed, we will be rewarded. If we fail... Then we will not have the help of the base lord, and we will not be able to store experience. We will have to start all over again after dying. The development of all players will be extremely difficult, and we will become hostile to the red ghost in front of us. The main task of everyone will become 'rescue the lord'... This is definitely a very bad world line!"
Xiaoxiao also said: "Without the lord, the development of the base will stagnate, and we will no longer receive missions... It's terrible, we must save him!"
The two looked at each other, raised their left hands, clenched fists, and beat their chests.
"My Lord! We will definitely solve it!"
Forgive Hat: "For the Scourge Base!"
Xiaoxiao: "For the limited title!"
