The Elephant and the Long-Necked Beast!
Upon hearing this, Ye Jing frowned slightly. This question was not meant to test Gongsun Yan's understanding of physical space, but rather to test her way of thinking and problem-solving abilities.
"No, it only takes three steps: open the wardrobe door, put the elephant in, and then close it!" Ye Jing couldn't help but smile.
This is a problem that stumped AI in its previous life.
"Huh? Chief, you're cheating!" Gongsun Yan pouted.
"Okay, then let me ask you another question. How many steps would it take to put the long-necked beast into the wardrobe?" Ye Jing asked with a smile.
"Three steps!" Gongsun Yan replied immediately; this time she had learned her lesson!
"Wrong, it's four steps!" Ye Jing shook his head with a smile.
"Huh? Why?" Gongsun Yan frowned.
Ye Jing explained with a smile, "Because you need to take the elephant out of the wardrobe first, and then put the giraffe in, so it's four steps."
Ah???
Not only Gongsun Yan, but everyone present had a question mark on their face.
Is that even possible?
"Chief, this is absolutely cheating! Who would put an elephant and a giraffe in a wardrobe?" Gongsun Yan was extremely dissatisfied!
"What do you mean by cheating? This is a test of your quick wit. Do you know how wicked people outside are?" Ye Jing shook his head. "What if the elephant is a toy elephant? I didn't say what kind of elephant it was."
Ye Jing patted Gongsun Yan's head.
Gongsun Yan paused for a moment, then suddenly realized and replied, "If the elephant is a toy elephant, then it can be easily put into the wardrobe; it only takes one step."
After she finished speaking, her expression fell, because she understood and realized that what the leader said made sense.
Her mind isn't quick enough!
"Alright, let's continue learning from Teacher Donglin's experiences outside. When the time is right, we can go out!" Ye Jing said with a smile. Actually, the question he asked was a bit beyond the scope of what people of this era were learning.
Because they wouldn't think in that direction.
However, Ye Jing mainly didn't want Gongsun Yan to leave so soon.
Her talent is somewhat abnormal. If she goes out so early and were to die unexpectedly, it would be an enormous loss for him.
Although she is now at the Peak of Humanity, before the cataclysmic Heaven and Earth Cataclysm, she would definitely have been an extremely strong person.
But now, even self-preservation is uncertain.
So it's not the right time yet.
"All right!"
Gongsun Yan is not a stubborn person, not to mention that she secretly went out last time and caused the chief a lot of trouble.
And she also believed the leader's question.
That makes sense; her mind isn't quick enough.
After Gongsun Yan left.
The others looked at Ye Jing with some guilt, because they hadn't answered Ye Jing question correctly either.
That doesn't mean it's time for them to leave.
Ye Jing naturally knew what these people were thinking. Was he doing this on purpose? These people gained strength too quickly, and they would definitely become arrogant. This was also a way to slightly suppress their mentality.
"Alright, let's begin the drill. The main thing is to see how well your formations coordinate."
But we still need to look at the important matters!
On the training ground, the warriors of the Gongsun Tribe quickly lined up, dressed in uniform armor and holding spears, their imposing presence unstoppable.
Ye Jing stood on high ground, his eyes sharp, carefully observing their movements and coordination.
At a command, the soldiers began their drill.
They charged into battle or launched counterattacks, their movements perfectly synchronized and their teamwork seamless.
Ye Jing nodded, satisfied with their performance.
The "Jing" organization is divided into two parts!
The majority of them were the island's Garrison Army, while a smaller, more elite contingent was secretly trained to become assassins.
I spent two days on the island taking care of the relevant matters.
Ye Jing and Qiuyue then left the island again.
Their target this time was a hidden paradise.
The journey to the Immortal Burial Ground was incredibly fortuitous opportunity!
However, this mainly affects their Outer Things abilities and doesn't actually improve their own strength much.
The place they're heading to now is a grotto-heaven where they can improve their cultivation.
Eastern Continent border.
In the guard's camp.
The red-haired old man seemed even older!
"Commander, we really can't hold out any longer! Let's retreat! We can't afford to be wiped out here!"
The red-haired old man's lieutenant walked in anxiously, his voice tinged with despair.
The border of the Eastern Continent has been attacked by the Devil Race army several times in a row. Despite the valiant resistance of the defending forces, the losses are still heavy.
Their defenses were gradually eroded, leaving only a tiny remnant.
The red-haired old man remained silent, his gaze deep and penetrating, as if he could see through everything.
But a hint of reluctance flashed in his eyes!
He raised his head, gazing into the distance, his eyes gleaming with unwavering determination. "One more defense, this last one, then we retreat!"
Upon hearing this, the lieutenant's eyes filled with utter despair.
All of this was in vain. They held out for so long, but they were still going to be breached. Why didn't they just leave in the first place?
It can also save troop strength.
If we continue to defend now, won't the remaining soldiers just die in vain?
He didn't know what was wrong with the commander; he couldn't even figure out such a simple calculation.
Just then, a soldier rushed in. "Report! Commander, there's an urgent military situation!"
The red-haired old man frowned. He knew that the military intelligence arriving at this time was most likely related to the Devil Race.
He waved his hand, signaling for the soldier to come in and report.
The soldier approached the red-haired old man, hurriedly saluted, and anxiously shouted, "Commander, this is the intelligence we just received: the Devil Race have regrouped and are rushing towards us!"
"Just as I thought." The red-haired old man muttered to himself, a sharp glint in his eyes. He stood up, patted his adjutant on the shoulder, and said in a deep voice, "Pass down the order: the entire army prepares for battle. This is our final battle."
Although the deputy general was unwilling, he knew that the commander's decision could not be changed. He could only nod, turn around and leave to relay the order.
The red-haired old man stood in the tent, his gaze deep and profound.
He knew that they would face immense pressure in this battle, and it might even end in total annihilation.
But he had to do it, not only for the Eastern Continent, but for the entire Profound Yellow Great World.
The red-haired old man looked up at the sky.
His aged fists clenched tightly; if everyone did nothing!
Then he'll put him in a tough spot!
"Young Master, the war seems to be getting worse. There are so many people fleeing the war in the central region."
Qiuyue frowned as she looked at the inn, which was packed with people.
Ye Jing didn't answer, but simply nodded slightly, looking at the group of people who had brought their families, were carrying large and small bags, and were huddled together, all wanting a room.
His expression was somewhat serious.
Keep in mind that this is the central part of the Eastern Continent, thousands of miles away from the border. Logically speaking...
They should be the least affected by the war!
But now, even this place has been affected, which shows how fierce the battle is.
He still had that doubt in his mind.
Why can't the Heavenly Court intervene and suppress it?
What exactly are they considering?
Are Devil Race really that powerful?
