Li Yuebai walked towards the first plaster statue and observed it carefully.

It was a statue of a naked woman, with a very pale complexion, a plump figure, and a somewhat scary expression. But if you looked at it for a long time, you would find that the expression was more tangled than scary.

"This..." Li Yuebai turned around and asked Liang Jing: "Is it——"

He had just said a few words when Liang Jing pointed behind him with a look of horror.

Li Yuebai felt a chill in his heart. Without even turning around, he quickly hid to the side.

The plaster statue moved! Just now, she stretched out her pale arm and slapped Li Yuebai's head fiercely. If he hadn't dodged quickly, he would have been hit.

This is an illusion. I don’t know what the consequences will be if I’m photographed. To be on the safe side, it’s better to avoid it.

The plaster statue turned around with the base, and its grayish-white eyes without pupils were fixed on Li Yuebai and Liang Jing again. She moved slowly and began to chase after them.

The other five or six plaster statues also began to move. They had different shapes and their movements were as horrific as zombies that had been dead for many years. However, they were all carved very delicately and gorgeously. It looked like the scene in the old movie "Night at the Museum" many years ago where the ancient sculptures came to life.

Li Yuebai immediately pulled Liang Jing and dodged left and right.

Fortunately, the exhibition hall was large enough, with room for them to move around. Although the statues looked scary, they moved relatively slowly, and had no intention of cooperating in the hunt, and would occasionally bump into each other.

In short, as long as you are careful not to step on the snakes on the ground, there will be no danger.

While taking a break, Li Yuebai took some time to observe those strange plaster statues.

The naked female plaster statue is not alone, she appears in combination with other statues. A naked male plaster statue follows her closely all the time. What is even more amazing is that there is a plaster tree that stays with them all the time. What does this mean? Couple statues?

There was also a plaster statue of a woman who was wearing clothes - not clothes made of cloth, but clothes carved out of the plaster. She was also covered in gray, and the color of her clothes could not be seen, but the pattern was gorgeous. She had long straight hair with bangs, and a gorgeous headdress carved on her head. She did not seem to have much energy to chase the two men, and was just lying on the ground lazily, staring at a plaster basket.

Li Yuebai watched too carefully and delayed his dodge, and was nearly stabbed by a trident.

The trident naturally belonged to a certain plaster statue - that plaster statue was a naked man, tall and strong, with four hands, a third eye on his forehead, no clothes on, only a piece of tiger skin around his waist, and a crescent moon on his head... The trident in his hand was extremely sharp.

There was one last plaster statue left, and it looked very familiar, like one of the great ancient figures that could be found in every school - it was a man wearing Hanfu and a tall crown, holding a long sword, but he didn't use the sword to chop people. Instead, he just stood there and chopped the ground with the sword.

"Are these plaster statues all Weng Zichen's previous works?" Li Yuebai asked while hiding.

"It doesn't seem like it." Liang Jing was out of breath as Li Yuebai pulled her left and right to dodge: "I have no impression..."

So, what exactly is this puzzle? Weng Zichen simply placed these plaster statues in a fantasy world, gave them the ability to move, and let them chase Liang Jing, but he did not provide any direction for solving the puzzle.

If this is a question, then the title is not clearly stated, and there is no answer area.

Li Yuebai has been reading for many years and is now confused.

Moreover, the poisonous snakes everywhere under his feet were too dangerous. He could easily step on one if he was not careful, which made him nervous.

Soon, several poisonous snakes were angered by their fast running and came towards them with their dark red tongues spitting out and hissing sounds.

Neither Li Yuebai nor Gu Xisha had received any professional training in catching snakes. Their usual contact with snakes was just watching them through the glass in the zoo. They had heard the saying, "Hit the snake at its weakest point," but in fact, they had no idea where the weakest point was. When faced with such a situation, their palms began to sweat.

"Wait a minute, let me clean up the poisonous snake first." Liang Jing breathed a sigh of relief and let go of Li Yuebai's hand.

She was wearing a white coat and gloves. She bent over in the direction where the poisonous snake was swimming. Then she stretched out her delicate hand and caught the poisonous snake in the blink of an eye.

It's professional indeed.

I've heard Liang Tian say before that Liang Jing would catch venomous snakes from the glass cabinet every day when doing experiments. After a while, she became more skilled at it than the snake charmers on the street.

Li Yuebai secretly breathed a sigh of relief, not having to worry about being bitten to death by a venomous snake for the time being.

Weng Zichen is really going too far. It's fine if he just creates an illusion, but he even brings the poisonous snakes in the laboratory into the illusion. Is it necessary to increase the difficulty like this?

Liang Jing cleaned up all the poisonous snakes and put them in a box in a corner of the exhibition hall. The ground was clean, but the plaster statue continued to move.

How to break the illusion?

Li Yuebai spun around and dodged. The trident that was originally stabbing at him hit the head of the naked man statue. There was a loud bang, and the upper half of the naked man statue shattered, and broken plaster blocks fell to the ground.

Is this the end?

No, not at all.

In a few seconds, the plaster blocks scattered on the ground flew back and reassembled themselves onto the upper body of the statue. When they were put together, they were complete and exactly the same as before they were shattered.

Li Yuebai felt tired for a moment.

I originally thought that as long as I could find a way to make all the statues collide with each other and break them, I would have passed the test. But that was not the case at all.

When you encounter something you can't understand, the first thing you should do is to strengthen your observation, continue observing, and observe harder.

So Li Yuebai stared at the statues intently.

The more I look at it, the more familiar it seems.

The first group of statues is a naked woman and a naked man, and there is a tree that seems to be bearing fruit - this combination is not so much familiar as it is seen every day in various books and documentaries.

The second statue is of a woman in gorgeous clothes with a sad expression. The style of her clothes is very unique, and her hairstyle with bangs is also very unique - Egyptian style, it is Egyptian style!

The third statue... What kind of person has four hands and three eyes? It can only be a god from mythology, Erlang Shen? No, the style of this statue is not Chinese, but Indian.

The fourth statue is obviously Chinese, perhaps a famous historical figure, but what does it mean that he is slashing at the ground with his sword? No one would go against the ground, maybe he is slashing at something else?

The four groups of statues are placed in the same fantasy world as a puzzle. Is there anything in common between them?

As expected, we should start with the simplest first group.

A man, a woman, a tree, and fruit on the tree—what else could it be? It could only be Adam and Eve!

According to the Bible, God created the world in seven days, and then made the first human being Adam out of clay. Adam and his wife Eve lived in the Garden of Eden, carefree, but God gave them a ban - they must not eat the fruit from the tree of wisdom. Unfortunately, a poisonous snake tempted them and made them eat the fruit from the tree of wisdom. From then on, they had wisdom and knew shame, and were driven out of the Garden of Eden by God...

This story is so widely known that it has been used as a subject in countless paintings and sculptures. It usually depicts an Adam and an Eve, with a tree of wisdom in the middle. The tree of wisdom bears fruit, and a thread is wrapped around the trunk.

--snake.

Li Yuebai looked at the first group of sculptures carefully again. There were empty spaces on the plaster tree trunks, and no snakes were carved out.

Did Weng Zichen forget to put the snake sculpture up? Or, this is the title!

Li Yuebai was excited. Yes, there was a snake missing from the tree, and the ground was crawling with snakes... This was the solution to the problem!

Weng Zichen has always resented Liang Jing for not understanding his work and his art, and even smashed his work during an argument, so he gave Liang Jing such a topic. Only when Liang Jing understands the meaning of his sculpture and fills in the missing parts of the sculpture, can she pass the illusion test!

"Sister Liang." Li Yuebai immediately called Liang Jing: "Bring a snake and wrap it around this tree!"

"Why?" Liang Jing was confused by his strange request.

"The Bible, Adam and Eve, and the tree of wisdom." Li Yuebai's words were crisp, clear and concise.

Liang Jing looked at the first group of statues, thought for a moment, and nodded: "I understand."

Although she was only interested in biological research, she was not completely ignorant of knowledge in other fields, and it was natural for her to be familiar with widely disseminated popular knowledge.

"But which snake do you want?" Liang Jing stumbled to the box where the snakes were kept. "There are too many... Oh my God... Which one should I choose?"

"Whatever." Li Yuebai was a little impatient. Could it be that Liang Jing also had difficulty making choices? For something like this, any snake would do, right?

Then his heart skipped a beat. Something was wrong.

If any snake could pass the test, then the question would be too simple.

It must be some special kind of snake, some kind of snake that best fits the description in the Bible...

But, screw it, the Bible doesn’t even mention what kind of snake it was. Biology hadn’t even started at that time, and naming and classifying snakes was a later thing.

Don't panic, think about it carefully again...

After Adam and Eve were expelled from the Garden of Eden, God punished the snake by stripping it of its wings...

In many paintings, the snakes coiled around the tree of wisdom have wings...

wing!

"Choose the one with wings!" Li Yuebai shouted in a deep voice.

Liang Jing's back visibly stiffened.

"How do you know we have this kind of snake in our laboratory..." Her voice was a little panicked and guilty. She picked up a snake from the pile. The snake was dark blue in color and had a pair of wings strangely growing on its body, but they were very small and could not be seen without careful observation.

It really exists!

Li Yuebai was also stunned.

Snakes don't have wings, of course, but Liang Jing's laboratory has always been engaged in cutting-edge research. Judging from her guilty expression, they must have secretly used some kind of black technology to create this weird snake.

Let it be black technology, as long as it can pass the test.

Li Yuebai protected Liang Jing from the attack of the plaster statues, rushed to the first group of statues, and carefully wrapped the winged snake around the tree trunk.

At the moment the entanglement was completed, Adam and Eve were completely motionless.

They were restored to their original plaster appearance.

The snake wrapped around the tree trunk also stopped moving. In an instant, it changed from a blue-black living snake to a gray-white lime statue. Its posture was still lifelike, and it blended into the entire group of statues, matching the painting style very well.

Then, the group of statues turned into white smoke and disappeared into the air.

The problem with the first group of statues has been solved and the level has been passed.
