Chapter 517

"Golden Rooster Standing on One Leg Method, Assumption Method???"

Upon hearing Gao Yang's words, Suan Wudao was completely stunned.

Besides the foot-chopping method, Gao Yang had so many other ways to solve it?

He stared at Gao Yang and couldn't help but say, "Lord Gao, do you have other ways to crack my question?"

Gao Yang stood in the center of the hall with his hands behind his back, a faint smile on his face. "If there were only one way to solve it, why would this official need to consider it for half an hour?"

"I knew this chicken-and-rabbit cage problem when I was two and a half years old."

As soon as these words were out, Suan Wudao's expression changed drastically.

But he subconsciously felt it was impossible!

The chicken-and-rabbit cage problem had never existed in Da Qian; for Gao Yang to think of one way to solve it within half an hour already showed extremely high talent in mathematics.

But how could there be four or five ways to solve it?

As for being two and a half years old, that was even more ridiculous; at two and a half, let alone the chicken-and-rabbit cage problem, one couldn't even play with chickens properly.

The Da Qian officials were also incredulous, their faces filled with admiration!

They had thought until their cerebellums were about to grow brains, yet they had no clue, but Gao Yang had actually come up with five methods!

"I am curious about this Golden Rooster Standing on One Leg method; please, Lord Gao, do not hesitate to teach me!"

Suan Wudao's eyes were locked onto Gao Yang. He absolutely did not believe that Gao Yang could think of other ways to solve it in such a short time!

This was the pride of his life, Suan Wudao!

He knew the posture of a golden rooster standing on one leg, but what the hell was it as a solution?

Gao Yang smiled, a flash of coldness in his eyes.

"The so-called Golden Rooster Standing on One Leg method is to make all the chickens and rabbits in the cage adopt the posture of a golden rooster standing on one leg. Then, the chicken's two feet become one, and the rabbit's four feet become two!"

As he spoke, Gao Yang even lifted one leg and performed the posture of a golden rooster standing on one leg.

"And then?"

"This can crack the question?"

Wang Zhong asked, full of curiosity.

"Then it's simple. Since half the feet are lifted, the total number of feet in the cage is now only one hundred, but the total number of heads in the cage is sixty. This makes it very easy to distinguish between rabbits and chickens."

"A chicken's one foot corresponds to one head, but a rabbit has two feet for one head. Compared to a chicken, a rabbit has one more foot!"

"So, the extra feet are exactly the number of rabbits. You just need to subtract sixty from one hundred, and you get the number of rabbits!"

"So, 40 rabbits and 20 chickens!"

"Master Suan felt the foot-chopping method was too cruel, so what about this Golden Rooster Standing on One Leg method?"

Gao Yang's faint voice rang out, his eyes looking at Suan Wudao.

Hum!

Suan Wudao's mind was buzzing.

He looked at Gao Yang's handsome, smiling face and couldn't help but stagger back a few steps, his face full of disbelief.

"This..."

"This Golden Rooster Standing on One Leg method!"

Master Suan was speechless, his lips trembling.

Da Qian's Living Yama is actually this terrifying?

First the foot-chopping method, then the Golden Rooster Standing on One Leg...

Chu Ningyu closed her eyes in pain. If the foot-chopping method was just a flash of inspiration in Gao Yang's mind, then this Golden Rooster Standing on One Leg method meant that Gao Yang had been prepared long ago!

Her guess had come true!

One must never bet against a poison strategist!

Chu Ningyu looked at the corpses of Master Zhou and Master Zhuang on the ground, which were already getting cold, and then looked at Master Suan, a hint of worry in her beautiful eyes.

Today, won't there be three people lying in this Jin Luan Hall?

Following Gao Yang's voice, the officials also sighed in admiration.

"Wonderful!"

"Lord Gao's method is excellent; what else does this old Suan scoundrel have to say?"

"Hahaha, first the foot-chopping method, then the Golden Rooster Standing on One Leg method—the Living Yama is worthy of being the Living Yama. Such problem-solving methods are simply unprecedented!"

Wang Zhong, Cui Xinghe, Lu Wen, and others had strange expressions.

If these foot-chopping and Golden Rooster Standing on One Leg methods had appeared on someone else, they would have been shocked, but appearing on Gao Yang, they felt it was completely natural.
