system of princes and generals

Chapter 212 "You!" "Me?"

Jin Judong asked this casual question, but his heart was still a little empty. He didn't have any confidence at all, but he had no choice but to grit his teeth and swallow it in his stomach. He originally thought that he could use three questions to stump Huo Guang, and then he did it naturally. As far as the scenery is boundless, he is not ready to answer the question at all, but he has already said his big words just now, and it is the competition he requested, so he can only wait for Huo Guang to come up with the question.

Huo Guang pursed his lips, "General Jin, please listen to the question, you can do it, I can do it, everyone can do it, one person can do it, two people can't, what exactly is it?" He looked at Jin Judong kindly and provocatively, meaning, it's so simple, doesn't General Jin know?
Of course Jin Judong understood Huo Guang's eyes, he wanted to answer calmly, but...he really didn't know...

Huo Guang grasped a lot of brain teasers at this level. In later generations, he would be at the level of a child. Those brain teasers have already been said badly. Just one, I think the first question is just to test Jin Judong's IQ.

But never expected that such a primary school student's question would really stump Jin Judong, who Qin Hanuo thought was the smartest emissary.

Jin Judong muttered in a low voice, "You can do it, I can do it, everyone can do it, but one person can do it, two people can't. What the hell is it!"

He started scratching his head and scratching his head, and all kinds of small movements showed his anxious mood at the moment. If this is the first question, if he can't figure it out, the subsequent questions will be more stressful, but he really doesn't know. The more he doesn't know, the more upset Jin Judong will be. He can no longer even think rationally.

Huo Guang didn't know how to urge him, so he just looked at him with a look that was as calm as still water and completely unhurried. In the eyes of outsiders, Huo Guang didn't care whether Jin Judong said the answer at all, but in fact, this kind of look is the right one. The most frightening, because this is a silent provocation.

Not only Huo Guang, but also Emperor Wu and the officials all set their eyes on Jin Judong. He wanted to answer, but he really didn't know.

At this moment, Emperor Wu's mood was just the opposite. When Huo Guang answered the question, he hoped to hear the answer immediately, but at this moment, of course, he hoped that Jin Judong would not be able to answer. Then, Emperor Wu slowly said, "Does General Jin have an answer?"

"This..." Jin Judonghong didn't say a word.

"Yes, or not?" Emperor Wu was a little dissatisfied with Jin Judong's not answering his question immediately, and his voice showed displeasure.

Although Jin Judong is not that smart, he definitely understands the basics of observing words and demeanor. He immediately replied, "Reporting to Your Majesty, Jin is not talented. I can't figure out how to understand the question just raised by the county horse. I would like to hear more about it."

Jin Judong's words were considered appropriate. He thought to himself that Huo Guang must have asked the most difficult question first, and he would definitely be able to answer the next two questions.There is no shame in admitting defeat on this question. Of course, this is just his wishful thinking.

Huo Guang smiled and repeated, "You can do it, I can do it, everyone can do it, one person can do it and two people can't. What exactly is it? The answer is a dream."

As soon as the answer came out, all the ministers in the hall laughed, and some couldn't hold back their laughter.

Emperor Wu looked at the two people in the audience with leisurely eyes, hooked the corners of his mouth, and from the corner of his eye, he happened to see Liu Sheng who was covering his mouth and giggling. He glanced over, and Liu Sheng quickly stopped laughing and became serious.

The hall seemed to be full of joy, except for one person, Jin Judong.

The answer to this question has no depth at all, and even gives people a feeling that they are joking, but this question really stumps Jin Judong, which is embarrassing. A question that seems to be a joke makes him baffled The solution was to ask Huo Guang to tell the answer. Jin Judong felt that he was being played by others, and he was extremely shameless, but he couldn't get angry because there was no one to get angry.

Even Jin Judong's own people praised Huo Guang's wonderful topic in a low voice behind him.

Jin Judong turned his head and glanced behind him with cold eyes, motioning them to shut up and recognize his team.

Emperor Wu was in a good mood, and his tone became less serious, "Jun Ma probably just made a joke with General Jin on this first question. It doesn't matter. There are still two questions left. Jun Ma can continue.

Huo Guang himself wanted to laugh, but he was just too embarrassed to laugh. This was originally a brain teaser, usually used for teasing and entertainment. Usually, people around would cheer up when he said the answer, but today was a so-called contest of wits. You must feel that you are teasing him, but Huo Guang didn't mean that.

Huo Guang bowed to Emperor Wu and said, "Yes, Your Majesty." Then he turned slightly to Jin Judong, "There are 5 apples in the basin, and each of the 5 people will share one, but there is still an apple in the basin at the end. May I ask General Jin why this is so?" ?”

Jin Judong followed the question silently in his mind, no matter what, there would be no apple left, "Impossible, Jun Ma, there is something wrong with your question, there is no way there is an apple left in the basin."

Although Huo Guang asked the question, the ministers behind him also thought about the answer silently in their hearts, counting with their fingers, no matter how they counted, there would not be an apple left.

"There is absolutely no problem with the question. If General Jin really doesn't know, then Huo Guang can announce the answer." Huo Guang looked at Jin Judong with a derivation of questioning.

Jin Judong didn't want to admit defeat so quickly, and thought for a while, but still felt that it was impossible to have an apple left. He firmly believed that he was right, and that there was something wrong with Huo Guang's question. When he announced the answer, he could refute it if there was any mistake. , and straightened his back, "The county horse will announce the answer."

Huo Guang raised the corners of his mouth, "There are 5 apples in the basin, and each of the 5 people will share one, but there is still one apple in the basin at the end, why?" People, take the basin away together."

Ha ha laughter came from the hall, the ministers couldn't help it, they all laughed out loud, even Emperor Wu, who was sitting on a high place, laughed, and Liu Sheng behind him saw His Majesty laughing, so he dared to cover his mouth sniggering.

"You!" Jin Judong pointed at Huo Guang unconvinced.

Huo Guang pointed at himself innocently, "Me?"

"Hmph!" Jin Judong waved his sleeves and stopped looking at Huo Guang.

Emperor Wu probably knew Huo Guang's routine, coughed lightly, "Junma, let's answer the last question as well."

Huo Guang nodded to Emperor Wu, and continued, "Why won't the eggs break when you hammer them?"
