Chapter 105: Mr. Bookkeeper
Li Wuchang looked at Chen Ba, laughed, and said, "Senior, we have chosen, let's choose the second path, let's say, how to start?"
Chen Ba didn't expect Li Wuchang to really dare to propose a solution, he was quite surprised, and said with a smile: "Okay, I think you must be the one to solve the problem, and this little brother Jiang is responsible for playing tricks with me, then let me see what kind of reputation Little Brother Jiang has." ”
To be honest, although most of the young people who enter the Martial Arts Pavilion through the martial arts conference will have a certain level, they will generally not exceed the seventh rank, and the seventh rank around twenty years old is really rare.
The test of the Martial Arts Pavilion can be teamed up by two people, and this factor is also taken into account.
The test of this year's arsenal is to pass the trap first, and then there will be a master of about eight grades to deal with the challenger, and the upper limit is one hundred moves.
If the two challengers have the strength close to the seventh rank, it is still very possible to survive a hundred moves, provided that they do not spend too much effort in the mechanism.
As for the mode of one person solving the problem and one person supporting the attack, few people should choose it.
After all, it is difficult for a person to hold on to the eight-grade master.
Now that the two young people in front of him have chosen this model, Chen Ba only feels a little ridiculous, but at the same time admires their courage.
Chen Ba took out two scrolls from a small cabinet next to the ring, and then beckoned to Jiang Minglun, motioning for him to go to the ring.
Jiang Minglun picked up the big knife, flew up, and stood opposite the man in black, ready to make a move.
"Catch!" Chen Ba snorted, and then sent the two scrolls in his hand to Li Wuchang's face.
Li Wuchang stretched out his hand to take it, and secretly praised it in his heart, it was so stable, it seemed that this Chen Ba's internal skills were extraordinary.
Chen Ba pointed to the left and said, "You go to the table over there, there is pen and ink on it." ”
Li Wuchang immediately ran over, then nodded to Chen Ba, signaling that he could start.
"Boom!"
After Chen Ba finished speaking, he pulled out the long sword at his waist, pointed at Jiang Minglun from afar, and said, "Little Brother Jiang, please be careful." ”
Jiang Minglun exhaled, put on a posture, and waited for the opponent to attack.
Chen Ba was not polite, he rushed up directly and made a move, it seemed that he wanted to quickly solve Jiang Minglun, Jiang Minglun dodged again and again, flashed to the edge of the ring, and there was no way to avoid it.
The two finally met in close quarters.
Although Jiang Minglun wanted to slow down the pace, the initiative was not in his hands, and Chen Ba seemed to have a huge power with any sword, which was very difficult to deal with.
Jiang Minglun gritted his teeth and made up his mind that he would hold on no matter what.
At the same time, Li Wuchang had no distractions, opened the first scroll and quickly looked at it.
After reading it, I almost laughed out loud.
The old farmer Zhang San has a total of 100 chickens and sheep, of which there are 28 more leg of mutton than chicken leg, and asked how many chickens and sheep are there?
Li Wuchang shook his head, took out his pen, drew another piece of scratch paper, and quickly wrote.
Let the sheep be x
4x - 2(100-x)= 28
6x = 228
x = 38
After doing the math, I filled in the answer on the scroll, picked up the second question, and after reading it, I almost laughed again.
The old farmer Zhang San had a bunch of jars, put two copper coins in the first jar, four in the second jar, and eight in the third jar, according to this law, how many should be put in the twelfth jar?
This mental arithmetic is on the line, 2 to the 12th power, 4096.
After writing down the answer, Li Wuchang stood up.
A fierce battle was raging in the ring not far away.
Although Jiang Minglun can only defend passively, he will not be defeated for a while.
"Stop!" Li Wuchang picked up the topic and shouted.
The battle on the stage stopped, although the pace of the fight just now was very fast, but Li Wuchang calculated faster, and now it was only about twenty moves.
Chen Ba frowned, looked at Li Wuchang, and said, "Calculated it?"
Li Wuchang laughed and said, "This is what you call a difficult arithmetic problem?"
In fact, these two arithmetic problems are indeed difficult for ordinary boys.
This is not difficult to explain, because most promising young people do not care about arithmetic, but specialize in martial arts and articles, and arithmetic is only the business of businessmen and bookkeepers.
This time, Li Wuchang and they were lucky, when they encountered this kind of topic, if they came up with an article on the Four Books and Five Classics to memorize, then Li Wuchang would directly stop cooking.
And most of the people who came up with the questions also thought that the articles of the Four Books and Five Classics could not help but be difficult for the sons and daughters who were both civil and military, so they came up with these two arithmetic problems.
But it was cheaper for Li Wuchang and Jiang Minglun.
Li Wuchang handed over the answer.
When Chen Ba saw it, he was very surprised.
How could it be so fast?
Could it be that this young man surnamed Li is a bookkeeper?
"What? Is the answer wrong?" Li Wuchang was speechless and asked.
"Oh, right, right. Chen Ba came back to his senses and looked at Li Wuchang with a complicated expression.
When Jiang Minglun heard this, he was overjoyed in his heart, and touched his numb tiger's mouth, the battle just now was too dangerous, he had no power to fight back at all, and he was beaten passively.
Li Wuchang laughed loudly and said, "Senior Chen, then we can take a handful of weapons here?"
Chen Ba exhaled and said with a smile: "Of course, you can pick whatever you want, but you should note that although the weapons in this are all forged by masters, the materials used and forging methods are different, so the quality of each weapon is different, some good and some bad." ”
After a pause, the thief laughed and continued: "The quality of the weapons that are almost the same as the weapons downstairs, and the good weapons can be ranked on the divine weapon spectrum, and the ranking is not low, in addition, you have to pick it quickly, see the hourglass on the east side, and start the timer when you enter this arsenal, and when the time comes, whether you pick it or not, you have to go out." ”
When Li Wuchang heard this, he almost scolded.
Grandma is a bear, there are so many weapons here, which one is the best, how to choose, in case you pick a handful of garbage goods, how can you be worthy of the hard work of this trip.
Jiang Minglun was also puzzled, there are at least a thousand knives here, how to choose.
Li Wuchang took out a handful of silver tickets and handed them to Chen Ba, salivating and said: "Senior, looking at our hard work, can you directly tell us which one is the best? You see, how can we say that we are also the pillars of the imperial court, if you can pick a good weapon, you can better serve the imperial court, and this can also show your compassion." ”
Chen Ba took the silver ticket and looked at it, stuffed it directly into the placket, and smiled: "You kid is quite interesting, it is impossible to tell you which knife is the best directly, and it is not a bad rule to give a little hint." ”
After a pause, he continued: "There is a good knife in the east and south, it is probably the first fifteen grade of the Divine Soldier Spectrum, and it is the best knife in this warehouse, you can come to this warehouse, which means that your luck is not bad, although the things in this warehouse are not the best, but they are quite passable." ”
Grandma is a bear, how can I have time to care about the problem of bad luck now, hurry up and look at the weapon.
The top fifteen grades of the divine soldier spectrum are enough.
Li Wuchang arched his hand at Chen Ba, and then said to Jiang Minglun: "Minglun, in this way, one person and one side, look at it as quickly as possible." ”
Jiang Minglun nodded, rushed directly to the weapon rack in the south, and looked at the first knife.
The rest of the east will naturally be handed over to Li Wuchang.
Li Wuchang didn't have much research on the quality of the knife, firstly, the weapon he used was only a short knife, and secondly, he really didn't pay much attention to the quality of the weapon, as long as it was convenient, his own short knife was only built by a random weapon shop for fifty taels of silver, and the materials were average, and the forging master was not very famous.
It was now an extremely difficult task to pick out the best knife from the hundreds of knives in the east.
Li Wuchang has no time to think too much, so he can only think while watching.
The sharpness of the blade.
The weight and length of the knife.
The shape of the knife and the material used.
Wait a minute.
It can only be observed from these basic things.
After a while, Li Wuchang felt that his scalp was numb, because every knife was so beautiful and stylish, the gems on the hilt were equally dazzling, the materials used looked the finest, and the blades were very sharp.
Time passed bit by bit, and Li Wuchang still had no clue.
Is it really just a pick?
glanced back at Jiang Minglun, and found that he was still not in a hurry, took out a knife, glanced at it with his eyes a few times, and then took it to his hand to try the feel, occasionally nodding his head.
It looks like an old expert, hoping that he can pick out the best knife.
"Hey, this one?" After observing a lot of knives, Li Wuchang finally saw a slightly different knife.
The shape of the knife is like a dragon sparrow, it is extremely beautiful, and the length is moderate, and it is slightly heavy.
The peculiarity lies in the blade, there is no blade, it is not cut to the touch, and the knife has a simple texture, which looks like it is some years old, giving people a mysterious impression.
That's it, the sword should have such a mysterious temperament.
"Minglun, don't pick it yet, try this one and see if you can take advantage of it. Li Wuchang picked up the knife and quickly came to the center of the room.
Jiang Minglun and Chen Ba saw that Li Wuchang had already picked a handful, and they all rushed over.
Chen Ba frowned when he saw the knife in Li Wuchang's hand, and secretly thought, this kid has a good eye, and he has picked the best knife.
Jiang Minglun picked up a knife and looked at it, nodded slightly, tried the weight and length again, and found that it was very suitable, and immediately said: "The appearance is good, and it is quite handy, it feels very good to take it, but I don't know how the material is?"
Li Wuchang said: "Although I don't know much about this kind of long knife, I should have looked at this knife for some years, and the texture is also very beautiful, according to my intuition, this should be a treasure knife." ”
Jiang Minglun nodded and said: "Actually, I'm also a layman, I don't know very much, since you are so optimistic about this knife, and I use it quite easily, then I won't pick it, just this one, and there won't be much time left." ”
Li Wuchang couldn't cry or laugh, and said, "You are also a layman? I think you are an expert with that serious appearance just now." ”
Jiang Minglun said: "Hey, you can figure it out, I'm from a poor background, where have I seen any good knives...... Actually, I was studying the material of the knife, but I didn't find anything, and it felt the same. ”
Then he said to Chen Ba on the side: "Senior, that's it, I trust his intuition." ”
This time it was Chen Ba's turn to cry and laugh, and said, "It's the first time I've seen you choose weapons like this, intuition?"
sighed with emotion and continued: "But you are lucky, the knife in your hand can be said to be the best knife in this warehouse." ”
When Li Wuchang heard this, he immediately cheered loudly.
