v2 Chapter 332： riddle (1/2)

A week of peaceful life passed quickly.

That afternoon, Zhang Heng was flipping through a ”Photographic Composition” in the library, but he received a call from Shen Xixi.

”Is it convenient to speak now?”

”Wait a moment.”

Zhang Heng got up, left the borrowing area, walked into the safe passage, and looked around. There were only a few freshmen who were discussing the group work in full swing, and no one noticed him even walking past.

Zhang Heng then picked up his phone and asked, ”What's up?”

”I remember you said before that you would drive?”

”Well.” Of course, Zhang Heng knew that what Shen Xixi said about driving was not about getting a driver's license, but having a certain level of driving skills.

”Can you please do me a favor?” Shen Xixi said. ”You know the news on the forum at this time.”

”Sorry, I haven't been on the forum this week.”

”Oh, this way, you can take a look first, then if you want to talk, you can come to the carving time at Food Lane.”

”it is good.”

Zhang Heng hung up the phone, opened his notebook, plugged in the U disk that will not be tracked by IP, logged in to the player forum, and browsed the hot posts in the city. In fact, he only needs to glance around, and does not need to deliberately find it You already know what Shen Xixi is about to say.

Now the most interesting players on the forum are not too much news of Sphinx.

Unlike the Moralesby and Zawelcha that Zhang Heng encountered before, Sphynx belongs to that familiar mythological species.

Originally derived from Egyptian mythology, of course, its most famous story is still in Greek mythology.

Sphinx squatted on a cliff near the city of Obeis, intercepting passers-by and asked a riddle, ”What animal walks on four legs in the morning, two legs at noon, and three legs at night?” It will be swallowed by it until one day Oedipus passes by and gives the answer. Sphynx is ashamed and dies.

Just like all Greek myths, this story is also full of wisdom auras. Let ’s not say why Sphinx jumped off the cliff without guessing the answer. The most important thing is that according to the description of each version, Sphinx It is a monster with a lion's torso and a woman's face carrying two wings on its back. With that pair of wings on it, it doesn't look like it will jump to the ground and fall to death.

The first post about the suspected sphinx came from a player named Goldbach's conjecture.

He said that he was a high school teacher, but one night after staring at the night for self-study, when he returned home, a monster similar to a large hound suddenly emerged from the roadside, its appearance was exactly the same as in mythology and legend, standing in the garbage The side of the barrel, and what happened afterwards is similar to myth.

The monster suddenly uttered words and asked Goldbach to conjecture to play a riddle game with him. If the answer is correct, let Goldbach conjecture to leave, and if he answers incorrectly, he will be punished.

Goldbach's conjecture suddenly became tense. Of course, as a player, he knew that he had run into a supernatural event, and it was also likely to be a terrible supernatural event. Although the other party did not explicitly indicate that he would take his life, as an understanding of Sphinx Of course, the people of this story know what will happen if they cannot answer the riddle.
