Chapter 497 The Tree of Wisdom



Cang Mingyou was a little unhappy when he heard his granddaughter say that he deserved it.

"You still dare to say that? Come in and rescue this old man! I want to see if my precious granddaughter has gotten fat!"

Quan Ji: "Coming!"

After saying that, Quan Ji walked to the front of the Aquarius constellation and looked up at A Lan.

Alan's eyes softened as she asked, "Is Miss ready?"

Quan Ji nodded: "We can begin."

Immediately, the two disappeared from the spot and entered the secret realm of the Aquarius constellation.

Cang Mingyou cannot be seen here, nor can the voices of others be heard.

It seems to be an illusion of a trial.

Quan Ji looked at A Lan in front of her, then glanced around.

The surrounding area was farmland, and there was only one small sapling in the field.

Quan Ji, unsure of her task, asked A Lan, "My mission is..."

Alan smiled and said, "The young lady's task is to cultivate the sapling in front of her to a height of three meters. Once it reaches three meters, she can pass the level."

Kwon Ji asked, "What is the reference plane for this three-meter distance...?"

Alan replied: "The ground."

Quan Ji asked again, puzzled, "Are there any restrictions?"

Alan: "Any means are acceptable. Just remind Miss to stay calm and composed."

Quan Ji frowned, not quite understanding what A Lan meant.

Is it too hot or too dry?

It seems that these four words are indeed necessary for planting.

The next second, Alan disappeared from sight: "Then please, young lady, solve this problem properly."

Her voice echoed for a few seconds, and then there was no further sound.

Quan Ji stared at the sapling that had barely reached her knees, speechless for a moment.

“It seems a bit troublesome to grow this sapling to three meters tall.”

She looked around and found that there was really nothing there.

There's nothing here. What can she do?

Quan Ji squinted, but quickly came up with a solution.

If we're not outside the tree, then... the only way to break the deadlock is through the tree itself.

Thinking it over, Quan Ji directly channeled her energy into the sapling.

Soon, the sapling began to tremble, and Quan Ji disappeared from the illusion.

...

When Quan Ji opened her eyes, she found herself under a shady tree.

This grove was enormous, hundreds of times larger than Princess Quan's, covering the surrounding area and blocking out the sun.

Quan Ji glanced around and saw the huge tree roots in front of her, around which a massive staircase spiraled, and A Lan's voice could be heard from all around.

A flower is a world, a blade of grass is a Bodhi tree.

[Congratulations, Miss, you have found the entrance to this bureau.]

[The tree's name is the Tree of Wisdom.]

[The young lady only needs to answer 300 questions correctly on the Wisdom Tree to successfully gain Aquarius's approval.]

Now, young lady, all you need to do is step onto the tree staircase in front of you to begin.

Quan Ji was speechless: "Wisdom Tree, what a name..."

[Please don't complain, Miss. The Wisdom Tree is sentient; if it's happy, the questions will be much easier; if it's unhappy, the questions will be much more difficult.]

Quan Ji let out a breath, thinking to herself, "This tree is quite willful."

She then asked, "What will happen if I answer incorrectly?"

[If the young lady answers one question incorrectly, she needs to answer two more to make up for it; that's all.]

Quan Ji: "That's pretty easy."

【Alright, Miss, please begin.】

Quan Ji's gaze fell on the steps, a slight smile playing on her lips, as she mentally prepared herself.

She has lived two lives, and although she hasn't read many books, she has a lot of experience and knowledge, no less than anyone else.

She was naturally not afraid of answering questions.

Of course, she also considered that the questions posed by the Wisdom Tree were unusually difficult.

Just as Quan Ji took her first step, an energy screen suddenly appeared in front of her, with words written on it.

Question 1: 1 + 1 = ?, 0 / 300

Quan Ji: "..."

I didn't know what to say for a moment.

The preceding text should be the question.

The "0/300" at the end is probably my progress.

Um……

1+1=?

Is there a deeper meaning behind this title?

It's a person and an apple. Even if the person eats the apple, they're still just a person.

Or, to put it another way, it was a bull and a cow that gave birth to countless calves.

This is, after all, the Tree of Wisdom; shouldn't it be a bit more complex?

In short, Kwon Ji's expression was very complicated.

Quan Ji prided herself on being knowledgeable and experienced, but at this moment she could only fill in the simplest and most normal answer.

She wrote a "2".

Kwon Ji was already mentally prepared to give the wrong answer.

result--

Congratulations, your answer is correct!

Please move up one step.

Quan Ji: "..."

She walked up a step with a blank expression, feeling a complex mix of emotions.

Next up is the second question.

[Question 2: 2 + 2 = ?, 1/300]

Quan Ji suddenly realized that even if this kind of question was very simple, the entire Wisdom Tree wouldn't be too simple.

Indeed, simple addition is not difficult, but if the problem is "4+4", "8+8", and so on, with endless reasoning, the number will get bigger and bigger, and the problem will become more and more difficult.

Even in the end, the answers were numbers in the hundreds of digits.

Even if you fill it in, it's easy to make a mistake.

It seems this "Wisdom Tree" uses the simplest method to explore the most tricky angles.
