Chapter 119 Questions and Answers About Death (3)

"Of course... Since it is a special question with double points, it will naturally be a bit more difficult. Please listen to the question..." Mr. You raised the question card and said, "Green Lantern... everyone must know it." He glanced at the camera: "Their green light energy source is 'willpower'." He looked up at Feng Bujue and said: "In the DC universe, the green light represents willpower, so... what do the other colors of lights represent? Please Name at least four and the timer starts!”

It was impossible for Feng Bujue to be stumped by this kind of question. Even if it wasn't to collect writing materials, he had read a lot out of interest. So at this moment, he just recalled it briefly, and then answered: "Well... let me tell you in order of color. Red light, anger; orange light, greed; yellow light, fear; green light, willpower; green light, willpower. The light represents sympathy; the blue light represents hope; the purple light represents love. There is also a black light, which represents death.”

The whole place was silent. Mr. You looked at the answer in his hand and was silent for a few seconds. Then he suddenly said in a quick and decisive tone: "Absolutely correct!"

The audience burst into a roar of applause second only to the opening scene.

"Contestant No. 1 is really knowledgeable. After three questions, he has already scored 40 points, while the other three players have zero points after two rounds. Contestant No. 1 is basically invincible." Mr. You explained, He turned his head and looked at the guest seats: "What do the three guests think of the performance of contestant No. 1?"

After the camera focused on the guest seat, the arrogant lady actually spoke for the first time today. She only said two words: "Dead otaku." After saying that, she turned her head again and snorted coldly.

Plague slumped on the seat, holding his cheek with his bony hands. The skin on his hands was so white that it was almost transparent, and you could see the blood vessels under the skin. This posture made his appearance even more sick and haggard: "Speaking of which... …Why isn’t there a color that represents the plague…”

The cameraman (a translucent ghost) turned the lens to Hephaestus again. This guy's comment was still inexplicable: "Oh...it's just some lanterns and rings that collect free energy. I want to mass-produce such things." If so, as long as the number of Cyclops peons is enough..."

"Okay, thank you three for your comments." Mr. You took over the topic before the guy could finish speaking, and said to Xiao Tan: "Contestant No. 2, please listen to the tenth question." He burned the last question He opened a question card and said to the next one: "Please use English and spell it accurately - phenylketonuria. The timer starts."

As soon as the ticking sound effect started, Mr. You turned around and interacted with the audience: "As we all know, in English, medical terminology is a very troublesome part. Those long and difficult to remember..."

"Phenylketonuria, PKU for short." Xiaotan replied, and then he spelled the whole word letter by letter.

Mr. You was stunned for a few seconds. He raised his sunglasses on the bridge of his nose with the hand holding the microphone. He opened his small eyes and carefully confirmed the answer on the question card: "Yes... correct!"

Xiaotan's score increased to ten points, and the audience applauded.

"It seems that this question just asked about the professional field of the second player, or is he particularly good at English?" Mr. You commented.

"This is actually quite simple..." Before Xiao Tan finished speaking, Mr. You raised his voice and said, "Then... next..."

Mr. You turned to Xiyu again: "Contestant No. 3, now only you and Contestant No. 4 have zero points. This question is very critical."

"Oh." Xiyu responded calmly, looking at his attitude, it seemed to say "it's not a big deal."

"Please listen to the question..." Mr. You brought the new question card to his eyes, took a look at it, and said, "Please tell me, what does the chemical formula that appears on the screen represent? The timer starts!" He said, like rain. The same chemical formula appeared on the small screen on the workbench and on the large screen at the scene: C6H12O6.

"Glucose." Xiyu thought for a moment and then replied.

"Correct!" Mr. You said.

The audience cheered again.

"It seems that our players are very good. Will the suspense be left until the last lap? Or will it be ended at the next question?" Mr. You turned to the direction of Bei Ling.

"Hey! Does this mean that I will be minus ten points after answering this question?" Bei Lingxu glared at Fatty You: "Even if it really turns out to be minus ten points, I still have a chance in the next round, right? .”

"Haha... I say this because..." Fatty You raised the next question card in his hand: "This twelfth question is another special question."

There was an uproar in the audience.

"Please listen to the question!" Mr. You read to the question card: "Please name three players who won the title of European Footballer in the 20th century. Full names are not required, but... the nationalities of the three cannot be repeated. Timing begins!"

Sadling pouted again, with a troubled expression on his face.

"This question about the sports world may be very simple for male players. I think if the No. 1 or No. 2 player draws, the twenty points will be the same as a gift. Unfortunately, it is our female player. This question was asked." Mr. You said, reminding: "There are still thirty seconds left."

"Beckenbauer, Platini." Sadling actually said two of them.

"So far...correct." Mr. You said: "It's very interesting...the two mentioned by player No. 4 are not only outstanding players, but also served as officials later."

"Ronaldo!" Sad Spirit seemed to suddenly remember the name, and then said.

"Player No. 4, may I ask...why do you think a Brazilian has won the European Footballer of the Year?" Mr. You asked with a smile.

"Huh? Is this a Brazilian?" Sadling asked.

"Uh...since you don't know him, why did you answer this name?" Mr. You said.

"Because in my impression, many football players have this name, so I thought... maybe one of them will be better than Mr. So-and-so." Sadling replied.

"Well..." Mr. You said, "Okay, no matter what, the answer to this question is... correct!"

The audience applauded, and Bei Ling's score suddenly reached twenty.

"Okay, ladies, gentlemen, and all audiences regardless of gender..." Mr. You said emotionally: "This is the first round, and there are only four questions left. Let's take a look. The scoring of the four players.”

"Contestant No. 1 is far ahead with 40 points. Contestant No. 2 has 10 points and still looks quite nervous. Contestant No. 3, who is calm, also has 10 points. And Contestant No. 4, relying on his lucky performance on special questions, has already Twenty points." Following Mr. You's explanation, the camera showed the four people one by one.

"Then... if nothing else happens, the contestants who enter the arena will be selected from the three contestants No. 2, 3, and 4." Mr. You began to incite the atmosphere and said loudly: "Now, please hold your breath and concentrate, Entering the last four questions of the first round!”

He turned to Feng Bujue and picked up the question card: "This question..." He paused deliberately: "It's not a special question."

"You mean, it doesn't matter even if I answer wrong, right?" Feng Bujue said.

"That's right, but I want to remind you that the player with the first score at the end of each round will get a mysterious advantage." Mr. You made a "one" gesture with the hand holding the card and spoke. The tone is very suggestive.

"Is there an advantage..." Feng Bujue said thoughtfully, "Anyway...you should ask first."

"Please listen to the question!" Mr. You said: "Excuse me...'There is meaning in it, and the will is immortal. Are you familiar with the mystery of the will and its power? God is a great will, with its single-mindedness and pervasiveness. All things. If a mortal does not have the flaw of weak will, he will never surrender to the angels, nor to the god of death.'" He paused at this point: "Who said the above words? The timer starts!"

"Hmph...it's the last circle after all. This question is very dangerous..." Feng Bujue sneered. Judging from his attitude, he seemed to be confident: "At the beginning of the article "Ligeia", the author quoted Joseph. Granville’s passage serves to cater to the central idea of ​​the entire text.”

"Then your answer is Joseph..." Mr. You just started.

Feng Bujue interrupted: "But!" He pointed at Fatty You with his finger: "But... the author of "Ligeia" is Edgar Allan Poe. This drunkard cannot be trusted." He said with a smile. : "Granville is a famous theist, and Poe took this into account... In fact, the passage just now was written by Poe himself. He made up these few lines, and then added a dash and wrote The inclusion of Granville's name makes others think that he is quoting an ancestor's work, but in fact...it is Poe's handwriting."

Mr. You said: "So...what is your answer?"

"Without a doubt. Edgar Allan Poe." Feng Bujue said.

"Absolutely correct!" Mr. You waved his hand and burned the question card. The audience burst into applause and cheers again.

"Huh..." Mr. You breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Contestant No. 1 answered all four questions in the first round correctly, including a special question. The current fifty points are enough for him to get the first place." He turned to Xiao Tan: "Then what will be the fate of the second player?"

Xiao Tan was already covered in cold sweat and laughed dryly: "Hehe...hehe...I'm ready to go to that arena..."

"Really...hohoho..." Mr. You said with a smile: "But the questions in the last round are indeed more difficult, so...please listen to the questions!" He looked at the question card and said: "We all know... There is a fictional character named Kick-Ass. When he takes off his superhero costume, he is a student. Excuse me, what is the name of this student?" Mr. You put down the question card and looked at the child. He sighed: "The timer starts!"

Xiaotan was stunned after hearing the question. He is a person who can't hide things in his heart. It can be seen from the expression on his face... that he doesn't know the answer at all.

"Hmm..." Xiaotan has watched the entire series of this movie, even more than once, but can't remember the name of the protagonist.

"There are still thirty seconds." Mr. You reminded him and said sarcastically to the audience: "Ah, I can see from the look on the face of contestant No. 1 that he knows the answer. It's a pity that this question is not asked by him. Come and answer.”

The sound effects of dripping towers and dripping towers kept coming, and Xiao Tan had no clue at all.

"Fifteen seconds left." Mr. You reported again.

"Okay, I don't know." Xiaotan couldn't stand the tense atmosphere anymore, and gave up before the time was up.

There were boos from the audience.

"Unfortunately, the score of contestant No. 2 has returned to zero again, which is currently the lowest score." Mr. You said, and then came to the work stage like rain: "Contestant No. 3, as long as you answer this question correctly, you will be safe. , and as long as contestant No. 4 does not encounter the special question again, even if she answers wrongly, the result will not change. It can be said that...this fifteenth question will most likely determine the result of the first round."

"Oh." Xiyu's reaction was the same as the previous one.

The corner of Mr. You's mouth twitched twice. He talked for a long time, but the other party was still completely unmoved. He could only pick up the answer sheet and asked: "Well... Excuse me, the legendary... Ten Palaces of Hell, which one Which three kings are the second palace, the fifth palace and the tenth palace respectively? Time..."

Siyu gave the answer before the other party finished speaking: "King of Chujiang, King of Yama, King of Wheels."

Mr. You burned the question card: "Correct!"

The audience burst into applause. At the same time, the cameraman pointed the camera very sharply at Xiao Tan in position 2 and captured a picture of a bitter face.

Mr. You returned to the center of the stage, facing the side of the sad spirit, looking at the last question card in his hand, and said: "This sixteenth question..." He deliberately paused for ten seconds: "Unexpectedly..." This guy It seemed that every time two words came out of his mouth, he had to pause: "It turned out to be another special question!"

The entire audience fell silent again for a moment.

"Now the score of Contestant No. 4, Sad Ling Xiao Gu Gu, is twenty points." Mr. You said: "If she answers this question incorrectly, the score will return to zero." His tone was ups and downs: "The suspense... remains. It’s down to the last minute.”

"Hey, Fatty, if he and I both get zero points, then who will enter the arena?" Sad Spirit suddenly asked.

"Uh... Fatty..." Mr. You looked sad: "Okay, it seems he is calling me..."

He couldn't admit it even if he wanted to. Apart from him, there was only a ghost photographer in the middle of the stage. If the photographer was put on a scale and weighed, it would only weigh about 21 grams.

"Uh-huh... If two people tie for first place, then there will be an additional rush question." Mr. You cleared his throat to cover up the embarrassment: "And if there is a situation where two people tie for first place, then The two contestants will enter the arena together.”

"Oh?" Sadling smiled slyly: "Heh... then I will abstain from this question."

The audience was in an uproar, but Mr. You laughed and said nothing.

Feng Bujue on the other side looked at Sad Ling and gave her a thumbs up. First, he praised her strategy for being correct, and second, he praised her for her loyalty.

Xiaotan was so grateful that no matter what the arena was, if the two of them went together, he would feel more at ease.

"I gave up without even listening to the content of the question... It seems I don't need to ask you if you are sure." Mr. You smiled meaningfully: "Then... you two invite me to the arena!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Xiao Tan and Bei Ling's seats rotated and sank downwards. After landing in the dark space under the floor, the two of them were once again pulled away from their original positions by an invisible pulling force, and returned to their original positions. We came to two slides and headed towards unknown territory at high speed.

The scene on the big screen switched in time, and a vast desert appeared in the shot. Not long after, on this thousands of miles of yellow sand, Xiaotan fell from the sky and fell on all fours. A few seconds later, Sadling also fell from the sky, his feet firmly stepped on Xiaotan's belly, and he landed safely.

"Who will be the first executioner to appear in the arena today?" Mr. You said: "Although our four contestants are not very high-level beings, but... any class of life is struggling on the edge of death. , that kind of viewing experience is unparalleled." He used a high-pitched tone to arouse the emotions of the audience: "Who or what will be responsible for this bloody mission of one against two?" He said Taking a few steps closer and staring closely into the camera lens, the live music became weird and tense.

Suddenly, Mr. You's expression changed and he spoke quickly: "Before this, viewers who are watching our program please note that you can still participate through the interactive method at the bottom of the screen, send text messages or log in to our website By guessing the final winner, you will have the opportunity to receive exquisite gifts worth 1,000 ghost coins provided by Scary Box!

"Hey! Why are you inserting an advertisement at the most critical moment?" Feng Bujue shouted.

"Haha... It seems that our number one player is a little anxious." Mr. You said with a smile: "However, before I announce the first executioner in the arena, let our three guests comment on the first executioner of the players. wheel performance, and by the way their predictions for the executioner.”

The camera once again showed Arrogance. She looked down arrogantly at Fatty You in the distance and said, "If I comment, can you find a corner to commit suicide or something?"

"Why would you make such a request...Has your contempt for me reached this level?" Mr. You wiped his sweat and replied, "Uh...I'm afraid not."

"Humph..." So Arrogance stopped talking.

Then, the camera shot directly to Hephaestus. It seemed that the cameraman had seen through it and should let Plague, who was more reliable in speaking, speak last.

"Will the executioner be a Cyclops?" Hephaestus' comment was indeed as deceptive as ever.

"If so, just find a corner and commit suicide!" Fatty You shouted.

Finally, the camera showed Plague, and he slowly spoke to Mr. You: "The performance in the first round basically showed the areas of knowledge that each of them is good at. It is worth mentioning that the No. 1 player is very comprehensive. As for the executioner Well... there is nothing that cannot be predicted, ah, cough, cough... I am a knight, so naturally I already know what is in that desert, so... you, the host, should be responsible for making the announcement." (To be completed. Continued.
