Volume 1 Lin Yuan Chapter 75: That Inexplicable Examination (Part 2)
(Summary of the previous chapter: Wang Chen passed the initial test and entered the interview. He was full of confidence and wanted to defeat everyone in an instant. However, the first question made him collapse!)
"Here is the second question." The bearded man's voice was very low.
"Xiao Ming fell in love with a girl, but the girl told Xiao Ming that she would be his Taoist partner as long as he could enter the same sect as her to practice. Xiao Ming was a little disappointed because his talent was too poor and it was impossible for him to enter that sect. However, Xiao Ming liked the girl too much and was reluctant to give up. Finally, he entered the sect to practice, but when the girl saw him, her eyes were full of surprise and deep fear."
"Question: Why? Please think carefully before answering. This question is worth 20 points."
"What the hell, what kind of bullshit question is this?"
"Xiao Ming? Just say Xiao Ming!"
"Why the surprise and fear? How should I know?"
Wang Chen was complaining madly in his mind, but on the surface he looked thoughtful.
His eyes were already drifting towards the two people who had just given the correct answers.
"Because Xiao Ming has bad breath."
Wang Chen: “…”
"Because Xiao Ming wanted to push her teeth with his tongue."
Wang Chen: “…”
"Have I gone back five minutes? The answer is exactly the same as the previous question."
"How much do these two hate bad breath and buck teeth?!"
"impossible!"
“The answers to two questions cannot be the same!”
"These two guys are definitely here to make fun of me! I can only rely on myself."
Wang Chen's face was as gloomy as he read the questions carefully.
"That woman was surprised and terrified? Could it be that Xiao Ming is already dead? Is this sect a corpse-refining sect?"
Wang Chen felt that this made perfect sense and could perfectly explain why the woman was so surprised.
But when he was about to infuse his spiritual consciousness into the spirit stone, he was suddenly stunned.
That’s right! This is the cultivation world, the culture is very weird! If I really analyze it according to my normal thinking, I will definitely be eliminated!
This is a 20-point question!
Fight!
"Because Xiao Ming has bad breath, and he wanted to use his tongue to push the girl's teeth, so she was surprised and frightened." Wang Chen gritted his teeth and replied.
"The girl's surprise comes from suddenly seeing the spare tire that she thought she had successfully gotten rid of and would never see again, and her fear comes from the fact that the spare tire actually rushes up and wants to use his tongue to push against her teeth."
Wang Chen thought about the answer and suddenly felt that this answer seemed to make sense.
"Time's up," the bearded man announced with a glare.
He paused and said, "The correct answer is that the man was already dead and turned into a corpse. He was taken in by this corpse-refining sect. The girl was naturally surprised and horrified when she saw it."
Click!
Wang Chen's face was terribly gloomy. His hands trembled and he lost control of the force and broke the pen in his hand.
"Pfft~ Someone actually answered, it's because Xiao Ming has bad breath, and he used his tongue to push against her teeth."
"I want to ask this examinee, did you time travel back to the previous question?"
"How is it possible that the answers to both questions are the same?"
"Can you use your brain?"
The bearded man glanced at Wang Chen inadvertently and said in a sarcastic tone.
"Fuck it, this is intolerable!" Wang Chen was furious and was about to slam the table.
There was a loud bang, and a candidate next to him, who was as strong as a bull, took the lead and smashed the examination table in front of him into powder with one palm.
"What a ridiculous question! I won't test you anymore! I'm about to build my foundation! How can I let you mortals squeeze me? Come on! I'm going to tear down your crappy academy today!"
He shouted loudly, and the true energy in his body surged, causing a gust of wind to blow.
"The tenth level of Qi Condensation is perfect?!"
Wang Chen quickly used his Qi to resist, this state was something he could not resist at all at his current level.
Although the big man's target is not me, I still have to be careful not to hurt him by mistake.
"Go! Beat up this disgusting bearded man. I give you a thumbs up!" Xiaoyao shouted.
With a whoosh, the bearded man, who had a snobbish and sarcastic look on his face just now, appeared in front of the big man like a ghost, picked up a folding stool that appeared from nowhere, and hit the big man's face hard with the stool.
With a loud bang!
His figure was as fast as lightning and the folding stool was as loud as thunder. The big man didn't have the slightest strength to fight back. He screamed, flew out sideways, and slid a long distance on the ground.
Clap, clap, clap.
The sound was like glass beads falling to the ground. It was the big man's teeth mixed with blood, which fell from the sky one after another at this moment.
Wang Chen was dumbfounded.
"What the hell is this place?! Hell?"
Watching the big man being dragged away like a dead pig by several boys dressed as page boys, leaving a bloody trail on the ground, Wang Chen felt that he could still continue with the exam.
The bearded man walked back leisurely.
"For this question, if you answer it correctly, you will get 20 points, and if you answer it half right, you will get 10 points," he said.
What frightened Wang Chen even more was that the two guys who were still worried about their bad breath actually got the answer right!
"When did you change your mind?!"
Wang Chen went crazy. He wanted to grab these two guys and beat their soft stomachs madly.
No, I can't be disturbed by these guys whose thinking is totally unlike that of humans. I have to rely on myself for everything. His eyes flashed with a solemn light as he listened carefully.
Here is the last question, worth 70 points!
"Xiao Hong is very beautiful. Master Murong likes her very much. He always touches her and often keeps her here by giving her guidance on Taoism. However, Xiao Hong does not reject Murong's behavior at all."
"Murong has nine disciples, Xiao Ming is one of them. All the disciples except Xiao Ming hate Xiao Hong very much. They scold her behind her back for being arrogant and coquettish, always reporting to Murong, and seducing the master."
"Xiao Ming is an exception. He has liked Xiao Hong for many years. He sends her elixirs and talismans every day and speaks well of her. However, Xiao Hong is not moved by his gifts and concern. But Xiao Ming still likes her and insists on sending her gifts and sending her messages, even though she never replies after receiving the messages."
"One day, Xiao Hong was murdered in the back hills. The murderer hung her on a tree branch with a leather rope. He also tied another leather rope around her neck and feet, suffocating her to death."
"Xiao Hong's hair was disheveled, her eyes were wide open, her face was bruised, and her clothes were torn. A large number of desserts from the mortal world were also found at the scene. All the disciples said in unison that those were sent by Xiao Ming."
"There were no eyewitnesses to the incident, and there were no signs of evil cultivators invading. Murong also said that he went down the mountain to kill the monster last night and did not return to the peak. Xiao Ming was in great pain over Xiao Hong's death."
Case analysis question? Wang Chen adjusted his thinking mode to the cultivation mode and pondered secretly.
First of all, judging from the intention of the crime, except Murong, any other disciple is possible.
Secondly, the leather rope hints at the murderer’s modus operandi.
Again, the snacks sent by Xiao Ming should also be one of the important clues, and it is very likely an attempt to confuse the public.
So it seems that the murderer is...
