Chapter 109 That's my brother
Thank you very much for your reward!

Zhou Yu quickly took out a piece of paper from his cuff, recited the question loudly, then stepped forward and handed the paper to the people of Yangqu County, and then handed the answer to Mr. Wen, and then returned to his side. At this time, Luo Xin thought about retreating with Zhang Xun, but was stopped by Hai Zheng and said:
"Brother Luo Xian, Brother Zhang, please stay on the ring and solve the problem together."
"This..." Luo Xin's face showed a hint of hesitation.
"Brother Xin, please stay!"
Zhou Yu made the final decision, Jian Ming's face looked a little bad, but he couldn't say anything at this time, but he felt more and more angry. He worked hard for a long time but did not become famous, but he did not expect that Luo Xin, whom he deeply disliked, became famous.
"Brother Zijing, please stay!" Zhou Yu said to Luo Zhi, and Luo Zhi bowed his hands and stood aside. He just looked at his nephew Luo Xin from time to time.
In nearly two quarters of an hour, the scholars from other counties calculated first, which made the magistrate of Yangqu County look very ugly. If it were not as outstanding as Luo Xin before, the scholars of both counties would be inferior to those of other counties. It would be a shame to everyone, let alone the second brother.
However, now Luo Xin from Yangqu County is outstanding, and the answer is found in just a moment, which contrasts with the stupidity of Yangqu County. How could he feel better?
The good thing is that after three quarters of an hour, Yangqu County calculated the answer and allowed the game to continue. Yangqu County did not lose this game, which made Li Zhixian's face look slightly better. It was obvious that the time for calculating the questions this time was a little longer than the last time. I don't know if it was because of the difficulty of the questions this time or because of Luo Xin's sudden appearance, the people of Yangqu County began to feel a little impetuous.
It was Yangqu County's turn to make the questions again.
It was the slightly older scholar in Yangqu County who took out a piece of paper from his cuff and said loudly:
I don’t know how many chickens and rabbits are in the same cage, and thirty-six heads are exposed in the cage.
There are fifty pairs of feet in total, how many chickens and rabbits are there?
As soon as this question was released, Luo Xin felt happy. This was clearly a primary school-level question in later generations. There are two solutions to this question, one is the "foot-cutting method".
If all rabbits "hidden" their two legs, they should have: 72 legs; now there are 100 legs, so 28 are hidden, and the number of rabbits is: 28/2=14, and 22 chickens are obtained.
One is the "additional method".
If all chickens grow two prosthetic feet, there are 144, and now there are 100 feet and 44 prosthetic feet. Therefore, the number of chickens is: 44/2=22, and the number of rabbits is: 14.
Luo Xin calculated this question just by mental calculation, so he stepped forward and started writing: 22 chickens and 14 rabbits.
After Luo Xin's movement, several people on the Wendou arena couldn't help but look at each other. Even the Magistrate Zhou in the stands became excited. The Magistrate couldn't help but sit up slightly.
To be honest, everyone has doubts in their hearts about the question that Luo Xin solved just now. After all, Luo Xin is too young, and it is a bit unbelievable to be able to calculate it so quickly. Many people think that someone must have calculated it, just let Luo Xin come forward. Perhaps it was the juren from Yanglin County who secretly asked Luo Xin to come out to cheat.
However, Luo Ping and his wife in the distance did not think so. They just saw their son figure out the question with their own eyes. At this time, they saw that their son on the Wendou ring started to write again. Endless pride appeared on their excited faces. Luo Qing also stood up on the ox cart and straightened his chest.
Zhang Xun's mother also showed pride on her face. Although she felt a little disappointed because her son Zhang Xun was not as good as Caier, Luo Xin was also her adopted son.
Let's talk about it...
Even if she is not her adopted son, she is still from Shanglin Village. Her husband Zhang Shu is the village chief of Shanglin Village. No one can take away this glory.
Luo Heng, Luo Ye and Luo Sheng showed nervous expressions on the faces. Unconsciously, they had forgotten Luo Zhi, and their eyes were tightly stuck to Luo Xin's back. Only the little aunt's face showed a hint of unnaturalness. She knew that if Luo Xin was outstanding, it would be the pride of the entire Luo family, and her face was also glorious, but when she saw her husband who had become a supporting role on the Wen Dou ring, she felt sad.
At this time, Luo Xin on the Wendou ring had already put down his pen and made a request gesture to Zhou Yu, asking Zhou Yu to give the answer to Mr. Wen, but Zhou Yu smiled slightly, picked up the piece of paper and put it in Luo Xin's hand, and then took a step back.
Everyone understands this meaning, and it is to give this opportunity that is highly anticipated to Luo Xin. Luo Xin knew that Zhou Yu had good intentions and made him famous. He really didn't want to show off, but he couldn't refuse Zhou Yu's kindness, so he nodded, held the answer in his hands and walked towards the middle of the Wendou ring.
Every step of his eyes touched all his eyes, from Yanglin County, Yangqu County, prefecture and other counties. Everyone was suspicious in their hearts.
He... can really calculate it in such a short time?
Zhou Zhixian had already clenched his fists nervously. If Luo Xin could calculate it again in such a short time, it would be a complete victory over the scholars of the prefecture and other counties. This literary battle would never become a joke again. All scholars of the prefecture and other counties would have to shut up.
Li Zhixian was even more nervous than him. If Luo Xin calculated correctly this time, Yangqu County would be completely at a disadvantage. And this would form a trend that would impact the psychology of scholars in Yangqu County. Luo Xin could solve the questions they asked in such a short time, Luo Xin would definitely be able to ask more difficult questions. This trend would make people in Yangqu County mentally collapse, and the questions that could have been calculated might not be able to calculate.
"The answer is wrong!" Li Zhixian clenched his fists in his sleeves and recited silently in his heart.
"The answer is wrong!" All the people in Yangqu County were silently reciting in their hearts.
"Mr. Wen!"
Luo Xin came to Mr. Wen, and after showing his salute, he placed the paper on the table. Mr. Wen nodded at Luo Xin with a smile, then corrected the two answers, looked at Luo Xin with appreciation, and then said loudly:
"22 chickens and 14 rabbits. The answer is correct."
"boom……"
The people of Yanglin County who had been nervous suddenly burst out with enthusiasm. The nervous mood turned into excitement pouring out, and the cheers shook the whole field. Luo Qing was so happy that he jumped up and directly jumped off the ox cart, and fell down his butt. Luo Ping glared at him and said:
"Go home and take an hour's stance."
Then he opened his mouth and laughed, and Luo's face was blushing proudly. Luo Qing didn't care about his father's punishment, so he jumped up from the ground, climbed onto the ox cart and pointed at Luo Xin on the Wendou ring, shouted to the people around him:
"That's my brother! That's my brother!"
