Cheng Chen easily passed Zhangsun Wuji and Zhangsun Chong's questions. His miraculous performance made Zhangsun Wuji suffer a blow.
At this moment, Zhangsun Wuji had no choice but to admit that Cheng Chen had a talent that ordinary people could not match. At the same time, fear grew in his heart.
If the four of them were defeated, it would be extremely embarrassing.
Zhangsun Chong saw Zhangsun Wuji's worry and comforted him softly,""Dad, don't worry. We haven't lost yet. As long as we answer his questions, we'll at most be tied.”
"He's only an eight-year-old child. What difficult problem can he have?”
When Zhangsun Wuji heard this, he felt that it made sense." Chong-er is right. We have to answer this question correctly no matter what!”
"Yes!" Zhangsun Chong nodded and turned to look at Cheng Chen." Come up with the questions!”
Cheng Chen raised his eyebrows." Are you guys ready? I'm going out!"
"Sigh, in view of your lack of intelligence, I'll give you an intelligence question that even a five-year-old child knows.”
When Zhangsun Chong heard that, he gritted his teeth in anger." Stop looking down on me. Don't give me a five-year-old. If you have the ability, give me a six-year-old!" He doesn't even care about seven-year-olds!"
Cheng Chen smiled." A seven-year-old is fine. Alright, I'll give you a seven-year-old."”
"Sigh, with your IQ, you can only live at the level of a six or seven-year-old.”
Hahaha.
The entire court couldn't help but laugh. Only then did Zhangsun Chong realize that he had fallen into Cheng Chen's trap again. He was so angry that he panted heavily and rolled his eyes.
Zhangsun Wuji's face turned red as he glared at Zhangsun Chong." Stop talking!”
"Young Master Cheng, don't try to be glib with your words, quickly come up with a question!”
"Alright, listen up." Cheng Chen cleared his throat and began to set the questions.
"Tell me, you and your father were fighting and were ambushed by the enemy. You were separated from the main group of people. In front of you was the endless Gobi Desert.”
"If you don't drink water, you'll die of thirst!”
"At this moment, two puddles of water appeared in front of you. One was the urine of the enemy's warhorses, and the other was the slow-acting poison that the enemy had knocked over!”
"Here comes the question. In order to survive, what should you choose?”
Hearing this question, the civil and military officials were stunned. Wasn't this question too simple? Li Er and Zhangsun Wugou looked at each other. They also felt that this question was too simple.
What was going on? Was Cheng Chen going easy on him?
Li Lizhi, who was beside him, was anxious. She moved closer to Cheng Chen and whispered,"Little brother, why did you come up with such a simple question? I can even choose it!”
Oh? Cheng Chen raised his eyebrows." Really? However, I guess you made the wrong choice.”
"How could this be…"
"Hahaha!" Zhangsun Chong burst out laughing and looked at Zhangsun Wuji." Father, what did I say? He's just a little brat after all. He can't answer any difficult questions.”
Zhangsun Wuji also smiled." I overestimated him!”
Cheng Chen's lips curled up." Oh, so you have an answer?”
"Of course!" Zhangsun Chong raised his head confidently." Listen well. In a war, you must endure all kinds of hardships. In order to win, you must pay any price.”
"Therefore, I choose to drink horse urine. Only by surviving can I have a chance of winning!”
"How is it? I got it right, right? Now we're tied!”
Cheng Chen looked at Zhangsun Chong with contempt." Where did you get your confidence from? Wrong answer!"
What?
Zhangsun Chong was stunned. Wrong answer? How was this possible?
Li Lizhi, the officials, Li Er, and Zhangsun Wugou were all stunned. Was this answer wrong?
They also chose to drink horse piss!
"How could I get it wrong? Did you do it on purpose?" Zhangsun Chong shouted angrily at Cheng Chen.
"What are you shouting for? If you say you answered wrongly, then so be it. You'll know when I announce the answer later.”Cheng Chen rolled his eyes at Zhangsun Chong before looking at Zhangsun Wuji.
"Lord Zhangsun, it's your turn to answer now.”
Zhangsun Wuji also thought that he should drink horse urine, but he didn't expect that he would be wrong. What other choice did he have? Could it be that he was drinking slow-acting poison?
Wait a minute! Slow poison? It wasn't impossible!
What a cunning kid. He actually played tricks. I knew it, the questions you set wouldn't be so simple. However, you still can't hide it from me!
Zhangsun Wuji smiled smugly." I know. The answer is to drink slow-acting poison!”
Oh? Cheng Chen smiled and looked at Zhangsun Wuji." Why is it a slow-acting poison?”
"Hehe, the key is the word 'slow'. As the saying goes, a warrior can be killed but not humiliated. Although drinking horse urine can save one's life, it is an insult to the prestige of the Great Tang!”
"Drinking slow-acting poison, although I will be poisoned, I won't die immediately. As long as I persist until I find the army, I will be able to survive!”
After Zhangsun Wuji's logical analysis, many civil and military officials secretly nodded, feeling that Zhangsun Wuji's words made sense.
However, Cheng Chen curled his lips." Lord Zhangsun is really quick-witted!”
"So, I got it right?" Zhangsun Wuji smiled proudly.
"No, you're still wrong!" Cheng Chen shook his head.
"How is that possible?" Zhangsun Wuji was stunned.
"Cheng Chen, did you do it on purpose?”Zhangsun Chong glared at him." You only have two choices. This is wrong, and that is wrong. Is there no correct answer?”
"Of course there is a true answer.”
"Then what is the correct answer?" Zhangsun Wuji asked coldly.
Cheng Chen sighed." Sigh, I really don't know if there's something wrong with your ears or your brains. I've made it very clear!”
"There are two puddles of water on the ground. One is horse urine, and the other is slow-acting poison!”
"Listen carefully, there are two puddles of water! I really don't understand you. Why do you drink horse urine and poison instead of water?”
"Even a seven-year-old child knows how to choose this kind of question!”
Zhangsun Wuji and Zhangsun Chong were dumbfounded. The two of them stared at each other like two wooden sticks.
What kind of question was this?
Why didn't you explain clearly if there was water?
Who could tell that you were talking about water!
Did I get played by this kid again?
"Hahaha." Li Er laughed out loud." What a good question. Good question, good question!”
Cheng Chen cupped his fists." Thank you for your praise, Your Majesty. Your Majesty, you must have heard the mystery. You must have chosen water, right?”
Eh? Li Er's laughter came to an abrupt stop, and then he laughed dryly.
"Haha, I naturally chose water!”
"Your Majesty is wise!" Cheng Chen smiled evilly and cupped his fists.
"Stinky little brother, you're so bad, you even lied to me.”Li Lizhi rolled her eyes at Cheng Chen. However, she was still very happy. This way, Cheng Chen would pass the literary duel.
