Chapter 1192: Picture Guessing
The man was found unconscious.
Shi Rong unzipped his protective suit, revealing an intact handsome face, and raised his hand to pinch his philtrum.
Xing Jiashan frowned slightly, woke up in a daze, and opened his closed eyes.
What came into view were Shi Rong, Huo Jiuzhou and Shi Yang who were safe and sound, and he smiled at them amiably.
"Baby…are you okay?"
Shi Rong shook his head.
"I'm fine. How about you? Are you hurt?"
The two men helped Xing Jiashan stand up and also helped him take off his protective suit.
"I'm fine, nothing's broken, I just got scared and thought I was going to die..."
Shi Rong smiled bitterly.
"Exactly what I thought."
They took out a brush and swept away the mud and dust on their coats, and then the four of them went to look for their teammates.
"Brother Chu...Brother?"
When it was Chu Yu's turn, he saw that the man's breathing, heartbeat and pulse were all normal.
But he couldn't wake up no matter what he did, so Shi Rong simply twisted his thigh through the protective suit.
“Ouch~!”
Chu Yu shuddered in pain and without anyone's help, he jumped up on the spot with his mouth pouting high.
"Baby, look...can't you be a little gentler? I'm waiting for you to give me artificial respiration..."
Shi Xing glared angrily.
"Suck your head! What time is it?
There are still three missing, and you still have the mind to think about this? Hurry up and find them!"
"what?"
Chu Yu was embarrassed for a moment.
“I thought I was the last one…”
In no time, he broke free from the protective suit, and the man then helped to find the whereabouts of Song Qianchen and the other two.
"Qianchen, are you okay?"
At this rate, 20 minutes later.
Shi Rong and his five companions successfully rescued the remaining three men one by one, and picked up each person's used protective clothing and stools and put them away.
And take them to stand on the hard ground at the edge of the sand pit.
According to the careful observation of several people, this dark underground cave is no different from the sand cave above their heads.
It's just that there is a round pool of wet sand in the middle, which is not easy to walk on.
“I thought the place to answer the questions was at the end of the path, but I didn’t expect it to be under the sand cave?
So, before that, weren't Kyushu and Shiyang's efforts to expand the hole in vain? "
If it weren't for the sake of his own image, Shi Rong really wanted to curse Liu Xiqian and ask him if he was sick?
Didn’t he fart down there a long time ago?
As if seeing through the little woman's current thoughts, Xie Yixiu raised his hand and patted her delicate shoulders soothingly.
"Okay, Xiaobao, don't be angry, as long as we are fine.
To be honest, I was really scared when I fell down from above.
Because I knew Jiuzhou and Shiyang would do their utmost to protect you, I thought at that time that I would never see you again..."
Shi Rong smiled.
"No, as I said before:
Liu Xi was a bit modest, but he would not take anyone's life for no reason.
All of this is just to test the courage of each of us, that's all."
As soon as he finished speaking, a sudden light source suddenly lit up in the originally dark and wet sand.
Attracted by the bright light, everyone came closer to see a few calligraphy words in running script gathered in a pool of clear water. The words read as follows:
'You guessed it!'
At this point, Shi Rong really couldn't bear it anymore.
How could there be someone in this world... No, how could there be a ghost that could be so mean?
Anyone who commits a crime by sending foreigners to commit a crime will be dug out and sentenced to life imprisonment!
Thinking of this, Shi Rong had a seizure on the spot.
"Fuck you! You old baldy! Do you know that playing like this will scare people to death?
And you guessed it right, I guess you are such a big-headed ghost! Why are you so mean? "
"Hahahahaha!"
When Shi Yang and Chu Yu heard this, they immediately lowered their heads like the others and burst into laughter.
Huo Jiuzhou suppressed the smile on his lips, raised his hand and embraced Shi Rong's slender body to comfort her.
"Okay, Ah Rong, I'm not angry anymore."
Liu Xiqian: ...
What an interesting young man! He even swears.
Ignoring the little woman's angry face, the next line of text automatically appeared on the clear water pond:
"Guess the question from the picture. If the answer is correct, you pass. Otherwise, you will be penalized. This test has a total of 496 questions."
Otherwise, punishment?
Even though Shi Rong was angry, he did not miss the words floating on the surface of the clear water pond, so he simply opened his mouth to ask.
"What punishment?"
Liu Xiqian: "Keep it secret."
"I…"
Seeing Shi Rong picking up the used brush and about to hit him, Shi Yang quickly reached out and snatched it away.
He kissed and coaxed Shi Rong.
"Okay...baby, don't be angry, okay? He wants to keep it a secret, so what if we get both of our answers right? Right?"
Before Shi Rong could react, Qingshuitan took the lead, as if deliberately trying to piss someone off:
'impossible.'
"Fuck you!"
Now, even Shi Yang, who was trying to persuade him, wanted to join in beating him up...
"Haha... Okay, okay, calm down, calm down."
Xie Yixiu and Du Wu stood on the left and right, forcibly holding the furious man back.
"Xiaobao, Shiyang, listen to me, since Liu Xiqian's punishment is kept secret, is there a possibility?
He wants to use the words that appear on the clear water pond to constantly interfere with your ability to judge right from wrong and to provoke your composure.
As a result, you are unable to properly think about the puzzles he gave you? I think this is much more critical than his unknown "penalty".
After all, the mutant bats that interfered with the original project have been completely wiped out by him with the help of our hands.
In the short term, he couldn't come up with a better species to replace it.
Can we only resort to remote communication to stimulate our sensitive and fragile nerves, which have already experienced life and death?"
Huo Jiuzhou nodded, rarely agreeing.
"That's right. Ah Rong, it's not that you misjudged me. The end of that path was originally the correct coordinate for the answer.
Liu Xiqian's actions simply mean he's missing a link in the established process, creating a new type of problem specifically for us."
After listening to their well-reasoned analysis, Shi Rong gradually calmed down.
Indeed, they are right.
Liu Xiqian is truly a rare "hermit master" who was able to come up with two such effective tricks in such a short time.
"Okay, I understand."
After saying that, the little woman made a 'please' gesture towards the Qingshuitan.
"I'm sorry, senior. I was anxious just now and said something that offended you.
If you are ready, shall we begin?"
No matter how willful one is, it is rare to correct one's mistakes and return to the right path after realizing one's mistakes.
Liu Xiqian: "No problem."
The countdown ended with the words three, two, one written in capital letters on the surface of Qingshuitan.
Look at the pictures and answer the questions. It has officially started.
The first picture is roughly described as follows:
(The text is taken from the Classic of Mountains and Seas, translated into vernacular Chinese from the original text.)
This is an ancient strange beast.
Its overall outline is similar to that of a cow, but it has no horns on its head, only one hoof on its body, and its skin is pale grey. When it walks, sits or lies down, it emits a radiance as bright as the sun and the moon.
Shi Rong blurted out the words without thinking.
"Kui Niu."
Liu Xiqian: 'Correct.'
