Chapter 257 Intelligence Test
"Dad, I really can't bear it anymore, please..."
Before Chen Zhancai finished speaking, he saw Chen Qingqing waving a silver needle in front of his eyes.
"Master Xiucai, please bear with it. I will give you acupuncture to cure your illness."
"No, no, no, don't come over here."
At this moment, Chen Zhancai wanted to die. He shook his head, twisted his body, and begged with a face full of resistance.
"Qing girl, my good niece, please don't prick me with this thing. The pain is no worse than that of a needle tip. This is a pain that pierces my heart!"
Chen Qingqing snorted in her heart, she was scared, this was just the beginning.
I really want to poison this bastard who eats buns dipped in his family's blood.
But she couldn't do that. Although Chen Zhancai was hateful, he was not doomed to death.
She spoke slowly,
"Master Xiucai, what are you talking about? Traditional Chinese Medicine says, 'If the flow is unobstructed, there will be no pain; if the flow is unobstructed, there will be no pain.' If you feel pain, it means that your Qi and blood are not flowing smoothly. This is all caused by evil wind and evil qi. As long as you force out the evil qi in your body, the pain will be completely gone."
"Nonsense! You don't know how much pain it is unless the needle pricks your body. It's really heart-wrenching. I beg you, don't let me suffer." Chen Zhancai's face turned pale with fear.
Chen Qingqing frowned, looking embarrassed.
"I don't want you to suffer, but your illness isn't healed yet. If you go crazy again, talking nonsense, and finally die suddenly, don't even mention how heartbroken your family will be. As an outsider, I feel sorry for you too. As the saying goes, listen to advice and eat a full meal. Just be patient, and I'll be gentle with the acupuncture."
"Qing girl, I know you're doing this for Third Uncle's own good, but you really can't prick me anymore. If you do, it'll hurt like hell. Besides, I'm completely lucid now. I'm definitely not losing control of my mind like I was just now. If you don't believe me, you can test my intelligence. It's absolutely normal."
Chen Qingqing thought it was ridiculous. It was a test of intelligence. How dare you say that if I don't play you to death,
She said seriously, "Your illness has improved somewhat, but that's all due to the effect of my acupuncture. I know better than you whether you've completely recovered.
Since you don't believe me, I will simply ask you a few questions. If you can answer them, it means that your insanity has been completely cured.
If you can't answer, or answer incorrectly, there's nothing I can do; I'll have to continue giving you acupuncture."
"Okay, okay, it's settled."
Chen Zhancai felt as if he had been pardoned, and his heart, which had been hanging in the air, finally settled down. It was really God's blessing that he finally didn't have to suffer that heart-wrenching pain!
It's just answering a few questions, which is easy for a great scholar.
Thinking of this, a smug look appeared on his face.
"Qing girl, don't ask simple questions. Just pick something difficult, like memorizing the Hundred Family Surnames, the Three Character Classic, the Disciple Rules, etc. I guarantee you'll know them by heart."
How can we take exams on Hundred Family Surnames, Three Character Classic, and Rules for Disciples?
Chen Qingqing shook her head and smiled, "These questions are too brain-burning for someone who has just recovered from a serious illness. I'd better pick some simple ones!"
"Anything is fine, just ask!"
"Okay, listen carefully, you must answer my question quickly," Chen Qingqing waited for a moment, "What's the word between one and three?"
Chen Zhancai didn't think about it at all. He just kept laughing and shaking his head. "Qing girl, Uncle San isn't scolding you, but this question is too simple. Even a fool knows it's just 'two'!"
"Wrong answer."
"What did you say? Wrong?" Chen Zhancai was confused. "If it's not two, what's the difference between one and three? One, two, three, absolutely correct."
Chen Qingqing suppressed her laughter and said seriously, "Any normal person can answer this question, but you answered it wrong, which means your mind is still in a state of chaos."
"No way, I definitely didn't say it wrong, it was 'two'."
Chen Zhancai was a little unconvinced and said to Wu Baoan who was standing beside him,
"Village head, let me ask you, what's between one and three?"
Wu Baoan was also stunned at first, but after thinking it over, he couldn't help but laugh, "Zhancai, I'm not saying anything bad about you, but you are indeed a bit stupid. Between one and three, isn't that the word 'and'? How can you say it's two?"
After hearing this, Chen Zhan finally woke up from his dream and felt extremely regretful. If his hands were not tied, he would have slapped himself twice.
"How could I be so careless? Just one word difference. I shouldn't have done that. I really shouldn't have done that."
Chen Qingqing smiled softly, "Master Xiucai, you should have nothing to say now! Just focus on healing your illness!"
Chen Zhancai shook his head vigorously, "No, no, I was too careless just now. I didn't hear clearly, so I answered wrong. Don't use those one, two, three, difficult questions that require your brain."
"Okay, since you don't admit you're sick, let me test you. Suppose there are six caves in front of a tiger, and there's a goat in each cave. Why did the tiger go into the third cave?"
After listening to Chen Qingqing finish her words, Chen Zhan started to think hard. Yes, what's going on?
Why did the tiger enter the third cave?
Yes, that must be the case.
An idea suddenly flashed through his mind, and he blurted out, "The goats in the third cave must be big and fat."
Chen Qingqing shook her head, "No."
Chen Zhancai added, "That's a goat standing at the entrance of the cave, waiting for the tiger to eat it."
Chen Qingqing shook her head again, "That's even more wrong."
Chen Zhancai frowned and said, "That means there is a litter of lambs in the cave."
"Not yet."
"The third cave must be bigger, so the tiger can fit in."
......
Chen Zhancai guessed for a long time but still couldn't guess correctly, and he couldn't help but doubt his own physical condition.
How come you can't answer such a simple question?
Could it be that there is really evil energy in the body that has not been expelled, affecting the IQ?
Impossible, he feels refreshed now and doesn't look sick!
What's going on? No, keep thinking, or you'll have to endure the pain of the needle.
Seeing him keep his head down and remain silent for a long time, Chen Qingqing couldn't help but sneer in her heart.
With your stupid look, I either look down on you or smash your head, but you still can't figure out what's going on.
He smiled and asked, "Master Scholar, have you figured it out? Otherwise, let me tell you what's going on!"
"No, no, no, please don't say it. Let me think about it for a while."
Chen Zhancai pondered for a long time, his head almost smoking, but he still couldn't figure it out, so he could only hang his head down.
"I can't guess. Why do you think the tiger went into the third cave?"
Chen Qingqing smiled softly, "The tiger can go into any cave it wants to go into."
