Chapter 519

Upon hearing this, Wang Zhong said decisively, "Lord Gao, aren't you insulting this old man? This mere Equation Method—I understood it at a glance!"

Lu Zhen also nodded seriously and said, "I understand it too. Isn't it just that chickens have two legs and rabbits have four? First do this, then do that, and finally you get that there are twenty chickens?"

"What is difficult about this?"

Gao Yang: "..."

Although he knew that once this Equation Method was born, it would definitely bring shock.

But he still underestimated this modern Equation Method and the mathematical level of the seven kingdoms.

Lu Zhen suddenly turned his gaze to Suan Wudao and Chu Ningyu and laughed loudly, "Great Chu mission, what else do you have to say?"

"Do you still want to deny it?"

Immediately, many gazes gathered on Suan Wudao.

Suan Wudao was shocked inside; he had never heard of this Equation Method, but it was no exaggeration to say that this Equation Method seemed to open a new door to his mathematical path!

If the timing weren't wrong, he would really want to study it carefully.

But...

Today, he was afraid he was going to be finished!

Chessboard rice-placing—once the secret was out, he would be dead for sure!

What should he do?

At this time.

Gao Yang looked at Suan Wudao and said with a profound face: "Master Suan, what do you think of these problem-solving methods? This should be enough to convince you, right?"

"Master Suan has a lifetime of fame; how much grain can a mere chessboard rice-placing require? It's not related to life and death. You wouldn't come up with something like 'best of three' and ask this official to come up with a question too, right?"

Hearing Gao Yang's words, Suan Wudao's eyes suddenly lit up.

He said shamelessly: "Lord Gao, how much grain can a mere chessboard rice-placing require? How could I go back on my word?"

"But rules are rules. You won the first round, but 'best of three' with each side coming up with a question is a rule from ancient times!"

"I have another question!"

As soon as these words were out!

The Da Qian civil and military officials all exploded.

Especially Lu Zhen, who rolled up his sleeves and said furiously, "Where did this 'best of three' come from?"

"You old scoundrel, although I know that officials are always shameless, you are simply too shameless!"

"You must be bullying me because my horse lance is not sharp!"

Lu Zhen's killing intent boiled, sweeping through the entire Jin Luan Hall.

The entire Da Qian officialdom was filled with righteous indignation, especially the military generals, who were spitting and agitated, as if they were going to roll up their sleeves and talk to Suan Wudao about the principles of military generals in the next second!

Those who didn't know would think that Da Qian had suffered a heaven-sized defeat, leading to such harassment!

Qin Zhenguo couldn't help but look at Gao Yang and sigh, "Lord Gao, you shouldn't have said those words just now; this instead reminded the Great Chu Mathematics Chief."

"He is very thick-skinned!"

Gao Yang sighed, "Alas! It was this official's carelessness!"

"Forget it, Master Suan, please ask your question!"

"This official will give you one more chance!"

Hearing this, Wu Zhao looked at Gao Yang and fell into deep thought.

Gao Yang's tone was very wrong.

Did he clearly know about the chessboard rice-placing, was it really carelessness, or... did he have another purpose?

Wu Zhao's phoenix eyes stared at Gao Yang.

Gao Yang was completely calm.

The more shameless Suan Wudao was, the better his reputation would sound when it spread, and conversely, Great Chu would lose even more face!

Furthermore, Suan Wudao was different from the King of Kings.

Facing Master Zhuang, he had to leave no room and strike a fatal blow, not giving Master Zhuang a chance to speak, otherwise the outcome would be hard to say.

But Suan Wudao was different.

The first question was the chicken-and-rabbit cage problem, and he was arrogant.

This had no threat at all, and in the mathematical path, he was absolutely invincible!

In the seven kingdoms of the world, if the kings of each country forced them, someone might be able to answer "Smoke locks the pond and willow," but for some math problems, even if they were chopped, no matter how they were tortured, they wouldn't be able to answer.
