Chapter 185 A Brain Teaser!
"What? It's him?" The King of Wuji Kingdom's eyes lit up after hearing this, and he thought to himself, although the old man made himself suffer last time, he has a lot of tricks.

But now, he is encountering a big problem, and maybe only he can help him.

It turned out that just three days ago, a group of people came from Wuji country, and this group came from Chechi country.

The country of Che Chi is thousands of miles away from the country of Wuji, and there is still Haoshan in the middle, but they sent a team of envoys.

The king of the Wuji Kingdom received the envoys, but he was very angry when he asked about their intentions.

Those envoys brought a letter from the king of the Che Chi Kingdom, asking the Wuji Kingdom to submit to the Che Chi Kingdom, otherwise they would send troops to attack.

Of course, if Wuji Kingdom does not want to surrender to Che Chi Kingdom or be attacked, there is a riddle to be solved.

The king of the Wuji Kingdom claimed to be very smart, so he agreed to the envoy's request, but when the visitor uttered the riddle, the king of the Wuji Kingdom and the prince were dumbfounded.

Because they couldn't solve the riddle at all.

Che Chiguo's envoy gave a three-day deadline, and today's noon is the deadline.

Therefore, the king of Che Chi State was as anxious as an ant on a hot pot. The national power of his own Wuji State was not strong, and it was far behind Che Chi State. If the other party really came to attack, Wuji State might be wiped out.

The king of Wuji Kingdom was really anxious, but at this moment, he was waiting for the news of Chen Xiao's arrival.

The king of the Wuji Kingdom seemed to have grasped a life-saving straw, and shouted: "Please, please!"

The guard agreed, and came to the palace gate to invite Chen Xiao in.

Chen Xiao didn't care if the king of Wuji Kingdom didn't come to greet him, but followed the guards into the hall.

When the King of Wuji Kingdom saw Chen Xiao coming, he immediately had a smile on his face. He stood up and said with a smile: "Immortal, you and I have not seen each other for half a year. Please sit down, please sit down!"

Chen Xiao thanked the King of Wuji Kingdom, and said with a smile: "Your Majesty, do you still know me?"

"Of course, haha!" The king of Wuji Kingdom smiled and said, "Immortal Chief, it's only been half a year, how could I forget you?"

Chen Xiao was taken aback when he heard this, because the king of the Wuji Kingdom used the word you, this guy, why are you so polite to me?
Last time, I tricked him by folding silk. Even though he didn't ask for the bucket of gold in the end, he might have some objections to him.

But now...

Chen Xiao immediately felt that there was a problem here, and heard the King of Wuji Kingdom say: "Taoist, since the last time you and I made a bet, although I lost to the Taoist, I have never been reconciled. So in the past six months, I have sent the prince around I'm looking for an expert, and I'm going to compete with the Taoist Master again today. I wonder if the Taoist Master dares to accept the challenge?"

"Haha!" Chen Xiao laughed when he heard this and said: "Your Majesty, I didn't expect you to hold a grudge. Well, since you have sent the prince to search for half a year, let me give it a try!"

"Okay!" The king of Wuji Kingdom was delighted when he heard that, and thought to himself, if the Taoist priest could tell the answer to this riddle, then he wouldn't have to be afraid of those people from Che Chi Kingdom.

So, the King of Wuji Kingdom cleared his throat and said: "Taoist Master, listen carefully, this is a riddle, also called brain teaser!"

"What?" Chen Xiao was stunned when she heard it, what do you mean by running around in circles?It should be a brain teaser, right?
However, where did the king of Wuji Kingdom hear this word?He said that the prince went out to travel. Could it be that a traveler who traveled to the world of Journey to the West told him?
Thinking of this, Chen Ling became extra careful and said, "Okay, Your Majesty, then please speak out!"

"Okay!" The King of the Wuji Kingdom was also a little nervous and said, "Taoist Master, this brain teaser is like this. There is an animal that walks on four legs in the morning, two legs at noon, and three legs in the evening. Excuse me, What kind of animal is this?”

"Ah? This..." Chen Xiao felt even more strange when he heard it. Isn't this the mystery of the Sphinx in Greek mythology?

How could the king of Wuji Kingdom know this?
Could it be that this is what the prince got from looking for an expert?
So, who is this tall man?

Chen Xiao's brows frowned more and more, and the King of Wuji Kingdom became a little panicked when he saw it. Wouldn't it be terrible if even Chen Xiao couldn't answer?
Thinking of this, the king of the Wuji Kingdom hurriedly said: "I said long, you can't even guess such a simple riddle, can you? If that's the case, you are too stupid!"

Chen Ling rolled her eyes and said, "Your Majesty, do you know the answer to this riddle?"

"Hehe, of course," the King of Wuji Kingdom said with a smile, "Master Daoist, to be honest, I spent a lot of money to buy this riddle, just to compete with Master Daoist!"

After hearing this, Chen Xiao felt even more strange. How could the King of Wuji Kingdom know that he was coming?Why spend a lot of money to buy riddles and wait to embarrass yourself?This is obviously illogical!
Taking a closer look, the expressions of the surrounding ministers were also very strange, their eyes showed longing expressions, as if they really hoped to solve this riddle by themselves.

There must be something weird in it!
Chen Xiao made a judgment again, and he firmly believed that his judgment was correct.

Therefore, Chen Xiao decided to pretend to admit defeat, and came to test the hole cards of the King of Wuji Kingdom, so he said: "Your Majesty, this riddle is too profound, and I can't figure it out, so I will admit defeat now, please enlighten me?"

"Ah? Daoist, you, don't you know it too?" The king of the Wuji Kingdom was anxious, but he still told the truth. This time, Chen Xiao had confidence in his heart.

Chen Xiao sneered, and said: "Your Majesty, I really don't know how to be poor. Besides, where is there such a strange animal in the world? The number of legs used at different times is different? Is there such an animal in Wuji Country? ?”

"No," the King of Wuji Kingdom said: "Taoist Master, if you think about it again, I think you are a genius, you can definitely do it! Taoist Master, you must figure it out today, I believe you can do it, you can definitely do it!" OK!"

There was already a pleading tone in Wujiguo's words, which made Chen Ling feel a little strange.

However, he made a further test and said, "Okay, Your Majesty, I can think about it, but I need time, about three days!"

"What? Three days?" The King of Wuji Kingdom said upon hearing this: "Taoist Master, three days is not enough. You must give me an answer before noon today, otherwise, everything will be over!"

"This..." Chen Xiao was very surprised after hearing this, why did the king of Wuji Kingdom start to force himself?

What happened to him?Why is it like this?
Just thinking about it, another guard came to report outside, saying: "Your Majesty, the envoy of Che Chi Kingdom is asking to see you!"

"What? No, no!"

"Haha, His Majesty the King of Wuji Kingdom, I am already here, do you still want to see me?"

As soon as the voice fell, someone had already walked in with great strides.
