Zhu Honggong left the room with the math questions his master had written.
Lu Zhou suddenly remembered Zhu Honggong had obtained the information from Si Wuya. How could Si Wuya allow Zhu Honggong to obtain the information so easily?
Rongxi and Rongbei were so big, where could they find a memory crystal?
Lu Zhou returned to the hall and sat cross-legged on a rush cushion.
He carefully combed through Ji Tiandao's memories again, trying to find out anything about the memory crystal. Unfortunately, he found nothing in the end.
"What exactly is being sealed? Ji Tiandao's secret of reaching the Nine-leaf stage, or something else? "
When Lu Zhou had nothing to do, he summarized the few aspects related to the memory loss. First, Ji Tiandao's system. He could tell this from the seamless connection of the merit system when he first transmigrated here. Second, the Heavenly Writing's memories. The Empress Dowager had used the Heavenly Writing to treat her illness and gave him this hint. Third, Yu Shangrong had personally told him that Ji Tiandao wanted to kill Yu Shangrong. Fourth, Ji Tiandao's memories before his death.
The last point was debatable. Perhaps when a person was on the brink of death, his brain would lose its ability to think and thus lose its memories. Or he might have Alzheimer's disease.
If he wanted to find the memory crystal, he would have to teach Si Wuya a lesson.
Lu Zhou shook his head at this thought.
Lu Zhou cleared his mind and picked up the last Open Heavenly Writing scroll.
"Fuse."
[Ding! A new Open Heavenly Book has been synthesized. Do you want to comprehend it?]
"Comprehend."
Lu Zhou muttered to himself. The fourth complete version of the Open Heavenly Writing Scroll dissolved into specks of starlight and entered his body. A faint blue light flowed into his mind.
In an instant, he felt a refreshing sensation filling his mind, meridians, and all of his senses.
Lu Zhou was puzzled.
After comprehending the Open Heavenly Book this time, it was completely different from the previous three Open Heavenly Books.
He could clearly feel the meridians and functions of his body being nourished.
He opened the system interface.
Remaining lifespan: 12754 days.
An additional three thousand days?
It was equivalent to the lifespan of ten Reversal Cards.
This reward was not bad.
This was Lu Zhou's first time obtaining life from something other than an item card. This provided Lu Zhou with a valuable clue. Even those who were at the end of their lives could obtain life. In other words, the truth of a thousand-year lifespan could be broken.
Lu Zhou closed the system dashboard and began to meditate on the new Open Heavenly Writing scroll.
According to the previous pattern, an Open Heavenly Writing would activate a Heavenly Writing Magical Power. Then … what would it be this time?
…
Zhu Honggong ran to the back of the mountain with the rice paper in hand.
Soon, he arrived at the Cave of Reflection.
"Seventh Senior Brother …"
Si Wuya sat cross-legged in the Cave of Reflection with his eyes closed. He did not think about the question his master had left him. He asked, "What is it?"
"This is for you, master." Zhu Honggong walked into the cave and handed the paper to Si Wuya.
Si Wuya received the paper and quickly scanned through it.
"Today, there are pheasants and rabbits in the same cage. There are thirty-five of them, and ninety-four of them. How many pheasants and rabbits are there?"
Zhu Honggong scratched his head and asked, "Seventh Senior Brother, what's written on it?"
Si Wuya ignored him.
His thoughts and attention were immediately captured by this question, and he was soon immersed in it.
He thought quickly in his mind.
When Zhu Honggong saw Si Wuya deep in thought, he did not dare to disturb him. Instead, he waited at the side.
He didn't know how long he had waited, but as he waited, he simply sat on the ground and fell asleep.
When Zhu Honggong opened his eyes, night had fallen.
Si Wuya snapped back to his senses and said, "Eighth Junior Brother … Eighth Junior Brother?"
"Yes, yes, yes …" Zhu Honggong shuddered as he yawned.
"Go back and rest. I'll give you the answer tomorrow morning."
"Oh."
Zhu Honggong stretched his back and walked out of the Cave of Reflection.
When he was outside, he turned to look at Si Wuya. 'Is Seventh Senior Brother out of his mind? It's just a boring question. Is there a need to take it so seriously?'
…
Early the next morning.
Lu Zhou opened his eyes slowly.
He felt refreshed and indescribably comfortable.
Perhaps, it was due to the effects of the new Open Heavenly Writing scroll, Lu Zhou seemed to have changed more than before.
He looked at his white hair. There were more black strands than before.
Compared to when he had just transmigrated here, the changes were significant. However, compared to yesterday, the changes were not significant.
"Ding! Disciplined Si Wuya. Reward: 200 merit points."
'Hm?
That works? '
Lu Zhou stood up. He walked to the study table and picked up his brush again. Rustle …
Once he was done, he ordered someone to summon Zhu Honggong.
"Greetings, master." Zhu Honggong was very enthusiastic.
"Come in."
Zhu Honggong walked into the room. When he saw his master putting down his brush, he chuckled and said, "Master, Seventh Senior Brother hasn't been able to solve the problem you've given him all night. He's so worried that he has dark circles under his eyes!"
Lu Zhou was slightly taken aback.
Based on Ji Tiandao's memories, it was true that the development of mathematics in this world was not that great. It was impossible for people to solve problems with modern thinking. However, a problem like this should not be a problem for Si Wuya. Why couldn't he solve it?
"Give him the questions on the table."
"Yes, master."
"One of them is the answer to the previous question. The other one is the new question."
"Understood, master."
Zhu Honggong took the answers and questions and left the eastern pavilion for the Cave of Reflection.
When he entered the Cave of Reflection, he saw Si Wuya who was not in a good state of mind. He nodded repeatedly.
"What a wonderful question! What a wonderful question! "Si Wuya said.
"Greetings, Seventh Senior Brother." Zhu Honggong bowed.
Si Wuya turned around and grabbed Zhu Honggong. He asked, "Did master really come up with this question?"
"Of course. I saw master writing with my own eyes … Unless I'm blind!" Zhu Honggong said confidently.
Si Wuya was slightly shocked and puzzled. "Master doesn't seem like a smart person no matter how I look at him …"
Zhu Honggong coughed. "Cough … cough …"
Si Wuya realized he had said the wrong thing. He hastily said, "Fortunately, I've solved the problem after a night."
"You're amazing, Seventh Senior Brother!" Zhu Honggong gave him a thumbs-up.
"It's barely passable."
In truth, Si Wuya was not very satisfied with his answer. After all, the question seemed simple, but he had spent an entire night solving it. The stupidest way was to go to a farmer's house and grab a bunch of them. Even counting them would be faster than him.
"This is for you, master." Zhu Honggong handed the paper to Si Wuya.
Si Wuya was initially feeling dispirited. However, when he saw the new question, he immediately perked up.
The first piece of paper read, "Rabbit 12, Pheasant 23."
"Master, you know the answer as well?" Si Wuya was shocked. The answer was identical to the one he had solved earlier. How could he not be shocked? Although the answer was out, he really couldn't bring himself to be happy.
"Of course I know the answer to master's question," Zhu Honggong said.
Si Wuya looked at the second rice paper.
"Today, there are things whose number is unknown. Two remain after the number of three and three; three remain after the number of five and five; two remain after the number of seven and seven. How many things are there?"
Si Wuya frowned when he read the question.
This was a question that did not lose to the previous question.
