(I’m going to drink tonight, so I’ve just finished this chapter. Let’s post it first. The next chapter will solve the 18th stone puzzle)
Hanawa-san's voice was not surprising. On the contrary, he said with a hint of expectation: "Did you figure it out?"
Feng Yan said: "Don't ask like that. It's like I've been constipated for a few days. You have to ask the complete question. Have you solved the puzzle?"
Hanawa-san said awkwardly: "You really have a different brain circuit than ordinary people. If you want to solve the puzzle, just step on the stones quickly. The countdown will not finish before you step on 18 stones." time, but it won’t stop. Did you think of which stone the 18th stone was, or did you think that my words were a lie?"
Hanawa-san did not shy away from the fact that one of his words was a lie. In fact, the system gave Feng Yan a hint and he knew it.
Feng Yan crossed his arms and said: "It seems that my guess is correct. You know the prompts the system gave me. You act as the rule commentator in this game, and when explaining this set of rules, you have one sentence that can The right to lie. As for what you said about giving me a chance to step on stones of different colors, it is purely to put yourself in a good position. This is probably a 'must-have' benefit prepared by the game for me, and you also You have to tell me, right?”
If Hanawa-san could hear that this sentence was an obvious question, there would be no need for Feng Yan to tease her or the audience to laugh at her later.
Hanawa-san smiled and said: "It's really uncomfortable to chat with you. You always expose all the lies of others ruthlessly. Do you know that sometimes, some lies are also well-intentioned, and sometimes, these The lie is just to give yourself a step down. If you even expose it like this, you will have no friends if you do this..."
Hanawa-san has no entity at all in this dream, only a God's perspective. Having said that, he still explained it.
"You're right about your guess. This is a dream space. The system has given me some rights to explain the rules of the game, and also given me the right to tell 'a lie'. Of course, if you come in, I won't do anything." If I say that, the system will automatically explain the rules of the game on my behalf, but in that case, I will not be able to get the benefit of being able to tell a lie. I also don’t want to tell you that you can step on stones of different colors at one time. This is a reminder of opportunity, but the rules of the game stipulate that if I explain the rules, I must explain them properly. This benefit is indeed not given to you by me, but by the rules of the game itself. My duty is only to convey it to you."
Time has passed for 2 minutes and 20 seconds, and Feng Yan still hasn't taken a step.
"Honestly, I am very much looking forward to whether you can solve this mystery. To be honest, when I got this dream skill book, I simulated it myself many times, but all ended in failure. After I stepped on 17 stones, I chose to step on other black stones randomly and ended up dead. I tried all the black stones and failed.
Of course, after countless failed simulations, I have also summarized some small facts, but I will not tell you. This is not within the scope of the rules. I still prefer that you die here.
I also asked some expert friends to solve this puzzle, but no one could solve it.
Of course, it is impossible for me to post this dream puzzle to a public online forum for the majority of netizens to view. In this way, if my dream space skill is solved and announced by an expert, how can I use this skill to challenge others in the future? ?
So I'm in a lot of pain, Lao Tie. While I can't figure it out myself, I desperately want to know the answer, and I can't share it with too many people. My biggest purpose in participating in this competition is to leave this puzzle to you and let you solve it. If you can't solve it, I will crush you and take your life. At worst, I will let the Star Reaching Officer solve it. go. I’m not at a loss if you can solve it. At least you helped me solve a puzzle that has been bothering me. It’s like a riddle. If you can’t solve it yourself, you just won’t give me the answer. Can you understand this kind of pain? Bar? "
Feng Yan smiled and said: "I don't understand this kind of pain, because there is no puzzle that I can't solve."
Looking at the time again, Feng Yan said: "We don't have much time. Let me first tell you which sentence you told about the rules of the game was a lie."
After a pause, Feng Yan said the lie: "The lie is 'You can't walk diagonally, otherwise you will die.'"
After saying this, Feng Yan began to ignore the warning of walking on a diagonal line, and stepped from the position of stone No. 13 under his feet to the position of stone No. 7. Sure enough, just as Feng Yan said, diagonal line walking The warning that you will die if you walk is false, he did not trigger any flags.
"Wonderful and correct. How do you know this sentence is false?"
There was a bit of excitement in Hanawa's words. When he saw Feng Yan guessing which of his words was a lie so quickly, he felt vaguely that Feng Yan might already know where the 18th white stone was. The puzzle Maybe it will be solved soon.
Feng Yan ignored Hanalun's words. After entering the position of stone No. 7, he stepped into stone No. 2, then No. 3, No. 4, No. 9, No. 10, No. 15, No. 20, No. 19, and No. 24. No., No. 23, No. 22, No. 17, No. 16, No. 11, and the last No. 6 stone, plus the No. 13 stone that Feng Yan stepped on as soon as he appeared in the dream, he stepped on a total of 17 fast stones. , only the last piece is left.
At this point, all the white stones have been stepped on by him. He can continue to step on repeated white stones, but according to the rules of the game, repeated stones will not be counted again, but the total number of white stones is only 17 Block, the 18th block cannot be transformed, and it is even more impossible to step on the black stone. If you step on it, you will die. Moreover, Hanawa clearly told Feng Yan that he had already stepped on the black stone during the simulation test. All the black stones have been passed, and none of them are disguised as white stones. The final test results always end in death.
Feng Yan said: "There are 11 very obvious pauses in the sentence you just said. This should be what the rules of the game force you to do. In other words, you said a total of 11 sentences. I need to stop here." Identify which of the 11 sentences is a lie.
Some very obvious narrative statements can be directly concluded to be true. For example, the name of the game you mentioned, and then the total number and color of the stones, and the position where I stand, etc., there is no point even if you lie to me, or I can see the hints through my eyes. Then using a simple elimination method, it will be easy to determine which sentence is a lie.
Let me list some of the more controversial sentences. You said, 'You need to step on a total of 18 non-repeating stones of the same color within 5 minutes to pass the level. 'I think this sentence is true, because it contains very strong key game rule information. As you said yourself, you only play a role in conveying the game rules. This key game rule information, the system It should be impossible for you to be allowed to lie. Your right to tell a lie will never allow you to tell such a lie that breaks the rules. This is too outrageous.
Then, if you step on a stone of a color that conflicts with the starting color under your feet, you will die. ', this sentence echoes the sentence I just said. If that sentence is true, this sentence will naturally be true.
The rest, except for some confusing words, are only the last two more controversial sentences, which are 'You can't walk diagonally, otherwise you will die. ' and 'You can have a chance to step on stones of different colors. 'That's it for these two sentences. "
Hanawa-san listened carefully and said: "You can't know whether you will die if you walk diagonally, but it's also impossible to know whether you will have a chance to step on stones of different colors. What if I lie to you? You didn’t even have the chance to step on stones of different colors at one time? You didn’t know beforehand that this was a benefit that the system would give you. I have carefully thought about these two questions.”
Feng Yan said: "Your two sentences are indeed very clever. Did you use some knowledge of paradox?"
Hanawa-san was very helpful and he smiled proudly and said, "Thank you, I did learn a little bit."
Feng Yan said: "No prizes, good is good. These two sentences are a typical case of paradox. First of all, except for these two sentences, everything else is true.
If the statement that you cannot walk diagonally is true, then the statement that you cannot step on stones of different colors must be a lie. Because I have to get out. If it's true that I can't walk on the diagonal, it's also true that I can't step on the black block, so how can I get out? I'm surrounded by black blocks. Walking diagonally and stepping on the white blocks is the only way out. Moreover, it is impossible for both sentences to be true. All other words have been eliminated and are all true.
But I pushed back, and guess what, it worked.
If the sentence "You cannot step on stones of different colors" is true, then the sentence "You cannot walk diagonally" must be false. Based on the speculation and exclusion of your other true sentences, we can know that stepping on rocks of different colors will lead to death. , as can be proven by this sentence, 'You can have a chance to step on stones of different colors. 'It's true, this is just a benefit. If you step on a stone of a different color for the second time, you will definitely die. "
After a pause, Feng Yan looked at the time. It was already 2 minutes and 50 seconds later. He continued to speak quickly: "It's a very clever paradox. It stumped me for a second."
Hanawa-san snorted and said, "Oh my god, how did you come to the conclusion that you can't step on slashes is false?"
Feng Yan said quickly: "In fact, through the two inferences I just made, it is not difficult to see that the first inference is simply untenable. It is just an inference and has no factual basis to support it. But the second inference is different. It It exists on the basis of facts and is supported by evidence that is sure to be true. Of course truth and truth must be true, and iron-clad facts cannot be overturned.
But I still wanted to have a casual chat with you and try to talk to you, so I asked you some questions. I didn't expect you to tell me directly yourself, 'You can have a chance to step on stones of different colors. 'This is a benefit given to me by the rules of the game, so... I am even more sure that I can't take a diagonal line, it's a lie. "
Hanawa-san suddenly felt his face being hit. It turned out that Feng Yan’s compliments to him just now were all because of these words. This bastard was too insidious, too disrespectful, and too orphaned.
"Hahahahahaha... That idiot made me laugh to death. He carefully designed two paradoxes, but Yan Feng easily tricked him out of the key information of which sentence was a lie, hahahahahaha."
In the viewing hall, the audience was once again struck with laughter by Feng Yan's insidious and cunning methods.
At this moment, the time reached 2 minutes and 59 seconds, and Feng Yan made an action that stunned everyone.
