Yang Huairen, you said that this kid of Ulaliga is really stupid, the logic is completely confused, if it is really as he said, he is the smartest person in their Destruction of the Liji Division, then it is no wonder that the Destruction of the Ligiga Department will be destroyed in the future.

Although Yelu Yanxi said that the third game was about intelligence, he hadn't said how to compare the law, and several envoys also began to speculate about what method the Khitan Emperor wanted to use to determine whether a person was wise or not?

Yang Huairen couldn't help but think, is it literature, arithmetic or geology?

If it is compared to poetry or making pairs, Yang Huairen actually does not have much attainment, but he can let Xiao Laoqi'er, an old pedantic figure, fight, and he must be a head higher than the level of those nomadic tribes.

If it is arithmetic or physics, although Yang Huairen is a cook, he still has knowledge of mathematics and physics, not to mention how difficult it can be in ancient mathematics and physics?

Of course, there may be other ways, but Yang Huairen thinks about it, he should also be in the chest, can't Yelu Hongji make a brain teaser to test everyone, right? That's not afraid.

Although Yang Huairen had actually won the entire competition to recruit relatives, but in the last competition of intelligence, he felt in his heart that this one was what he had to win, and if he let others win, he would not have the face to return to the Great Song Dynasty.

Yelu Yanxi looked proud, and suddenly slapped her face twice, and out of nowhere, more than a dozen dressed Khitan girls came out.

These Khitan girls walked up to the middle of the stands, each holding a big tray in their hands, but the items in the tray were not large, square, a wooden square of more than three inches.

As a result, most people, including many Liao officials, were confused, what was the Khitan girl holding up? I've never seen it...... Wood blocks? Wooden boxes? How does this thing test a person's wisdom?

Yang Huairen looked at the wooden boxes, and at first he didn't think there was anything special about these boxes, but after careful observation, he found that these boxes didn't seem to have an opening opening, and suddenly thought of what this thing was.

Trap box!

I'll go! Yang Huairen was secretly surprised in his heart that Yelu Hongji actually thought of a way to test a person's intelligence level with a trap box.

The trap box has a long history, also known as the Luban box, which uses the principle of the Luban lock to design the box as a lock as a whole to store small valuables.

To open the trap box, it is necessary to unlock it first, and this lock is different from the lock in the traditional sense, it does not need a key to open, but uses its own structural design on the ingenious combination, completely without nails or glue to fix the molding, but completely rely on its own structure to support.

This kind of trap box is very difficult to design, make or open, and it is also a test of one's intelligence and hands-on level.

In the Song Dynasty, there were many similar boxes, which were used as toys by the literati, and the popular name for the box was "Monet box" or "difficult box", which intuitively showed that the box was very difficult to open.

The carpenter who can make the machine box is generally a skilled craftsman, but the mechanism box made by different people has a completely different method of opening, and each craftsman has his own set of mechanism fit and opening methods, so even if someone can open a mechanism box and exchange it for another machine box made by another craftsman, he may not be able to open it.

To be honest, Yang Huairen was a little panicked at the time, remembering that in his previous life, once he had a birthday, a female classmate who had a good relationship gave him a beautifully packaged box as a birthday gift.

At that time, he was still very curious and happy to receive such an unexpected gift, but unfortunately he was too young at that time, and some young people were impetuous, so after trying a few times and not opening it, he threw the box aside to make decorations.

At that time, he also had doubts that when he received the gift, he thought that the female classmate gave a relatively expensive gift, whether he had a crush on him, and then slowly he began to feel that the female classmate would not be mocking his intelligence for not being able to open the box at all, right?

So Yang Huairen was a little panicked, he didn't open the trap box back then, I don't know if he can open it today, and he fantasized that maybe the ancient trap box design was not as exquisite as that of later generations, maybe it would be easier?

Yelu Yanxi spoke, "What is in front of everyone is a kind of mechanism box designed and manufactured by the famous craftsmen of the court of this dynasty, this kind of box has an exquisite design and many mechanisms, if you want to open it, you need to open all the mechanisms step by step in a certain order......

Your grandmother, Yang Huairen scolded in his heart, it was obviously invented by our Han people, when did it become designed and manufactured by your famous court craftsmen?

While scolding, he was worried in his heart, if he couldn't open this mechanism box after a while, but let someone next to him open it first, wouldn't he be a little sorry for his ancestors and a little embarrassed?

Yelu Yanxi began to introduce the rules of the third competition, "Open the box in front of you, and it will be the third competition of today's martial arts competition."

To open the trap box, it takes a person to be very smart, and stupid people can't open it, so it is most appropriate to use the trap box to test your wisdom.

In the box in front of you, a piece of paper is placed in advance, and on each piece of paper is an animal drawn. Whoever can name the animal on the painting first will be the winner of the third contest. ”

Yelu Yanxi said proudly, as if he could easily open these box boxes, Yang Huairen thought that since these boxes were made by craftsmen in the Khitan Palace, there was no reason why they would not tell Yelu Yanxi the steps of opening the box.

Obviously you know the steps to open it, and you are still installing a big-tailed snake and tiger here, and your skin is thicker than the stinky brick wall of the thatched house.

Yelu Yanxi announced the beginning, and everyone picked up the trap box and took a closer look. At first glance, everyone seemed limited and confused, and their faces were even more confused.

The six sides of the box are smooth, with some auspicious patterns on the top, and the ten sides are tightly connected together, without any openings to open the box.

Not to mention opening it, there is no place to start, how to take out the note in the box? There is not even a gap in the whole box, how did the note get in?

For a moment, everyone in the contest frowned, because what they were holding in their hands was not a box at all, but a wooden block.

But when you knock on each side with your hand, the sound you make is a real indication that it's a box, because it's empty in the middle.
