556 Chapter 556 “Solving The Problem“
"So? You think of something?" Knowing that Li Shi Ying must have already thought of a solution for this question, Long Ao Zhen turned his head towards her and asked her.
Truthfully, he felt suspicious since their team test was nowhere near actual tournament tests with blood and sweat. It was just like doing a scholar test, a scholar tournament! Is this really a cultivator tournament?
Long Ao Zhen recalled how Li Shi Ying fought the yellow spider, meaning that there was indeed a strength test, but how come the moment he came, all the other tests became intelligence tests.
Could it be the staff from the tournament knew he was a mythological beast? It could be!
Of course, the one from the tournament side knew about this. They even knew that Feng Wang Zi was also a mythological beast, that’s why they gave them intelligence tests all the way, and not strength tests, which pissed him off more since he couldn’t show off his power.
"Yeah, I’m thinking about it." Li Shi Ying remembered that her father said, there were two answers for this solution. He gave a clue back then. It’s to pour water from the 5 liter to the 3 liter bucket, and the second way was to pour water from the 3 liter bucket to the 5 liter bucket.
The one she discovered with her sister was from the 3 liter bucket to the 5 liter bucket. She remembered how to go from the 5 liter bucket to the 3 liter bucket...the process was more complicated and confusing.
Now, from the 3 liter bucket to the 5 liter bucket...fill the 3 liter bucket to the fullest with water...
Now we had 3 liters, we only needed 1 liter. If she remembered it right...pour the water from the 3 liter bucket to the 5 liter bucket?
Li Shi Ying began to recall each step she needed to solve this problem, and seeing that Li Shi Ying was thinking hard, Long Ao Zhen didn’t disturb her.
He knew he couldn’t possibly solve this problem since he was kinda bad with numbers, so he would let his bunny solve it! He would help her if this was a strength test, though.
The boy also saw that Li Shi Ying was thinking, so he stopped crying and waited for her answer. He waited patiently, hoping that this big sister in front of him could help him with his problem.
"Mn..." Shu Chen, on the other hand, also tried to crack his head open to find out if he could answer the question. He couldn’t leave it all to Li Shi Ying. What if they only get one bottle of heavenly water later? That would be bad since he wouldn’t get any again.
He had to think of many ways, but somehow he still couldn’t think of anything! How could buckets with 5 and 3 liter water capacity get 4 liters of water in the end??
Li Shi Ying was back to her thoughts. She remembered that the hardest step was after she poured 3 liters of water from the bucket with a 3 liter capacity, to the bucket with 5 liter capacity.
So after this, inside the 5 liter bucket there was only 3 liters of water and in the 3 liter bucket there was none. She remembered that the next step was to fill the 3 liter bucket to the fullest with water again.
Now the 3 liter bucket was full...okay, she remembered how she was stuck in this step. Next...was to throw away the water in 5 liters bucket or... wait, wait, no, don’t throw it away.
She had to fill the 5 liter bucket with water from the 3 liter bucket!
Okay, so the 5 liter bucket is full...the water left in the 3 liter bucket is only 1 liter. Then the next step would be the most crucial, since she already got 1 liter now. She needed 3 liters more... wait that’s it!!
Li Shi Ying’s face brightened as she finally found the answer. It turned out, she remembered the answer too!
"I got this. Boy, lend me your buckets. Ao Zhen and Shu Chen come here, help me fill the bucket I mention you to fill." Li Shi Ying was so confident that she could get 4 liters of water for this boy.
"Really?? You know a way? Oh big sis, thank you! Here are the buckets." The boy’s face beamed with a smile as he happily lent the buckets to Li Shi Ying. Hearing Li Shi Ying’s words, Long Ao Zhen and Shu Chen could only look at each other and shrug their shoulders.
Oh God, 5 minutes hasn’t passed yet, and Li Shi Ying already had an answer. They really couldn’t beat this girl’s brain! Of course, Li Shi Ying wasn’t that smart, it’s just that the question she got was the same as the one her father gave her.
She was just lucky!
"Su Chen, fill the 3 liter bucket with water to the fullest." Li Shi Ying began to order Shu Chen to do the first step to get 4 liters of water in the end.
BYURRR.
"Done." Shu Chen scooped the water from the lake using his bucket and managed to fill it to the fullest.
"Pour all the water to Long Ao Zhen’s bucket." Li Shi Ying told Shu Chen the next step that he had to do.
They can do this!
