Hogwarts on the Tip of the Tongue

The most famous motto of Ravenclaw College is, "Extraordinary wisdom is the greatest wealth of mankind."

Whether it is the eagle ring, the students, or even the style and environment of the college, they all show their desire for knowledge, and the wisdom and ideas of the sky and the sky.

However, in addition to this, Elena happened to hear another sentence that mathematics is the most brilliant jewel in the crown of human wisdom.

Throughout the long history of human civilization, at least more than half of the philosophical thinking and problems have a wonderful connection with certain mathematical logic. In fact, hundreds of years ago, people also called mathematics natural philosophy.

"We are not embarrassing the students, we are only passing on the knowledge and letting the radiance of philosophical thinking reappear in the Ravenclaw common room ..."

Elena looked at Xenofilius Lovegood with straight eyes, shook her head, and said with a smile.

Just a moment ago, she slightly updated the Bronze Eagle Ring question bank and told a few interesting logical stories.

After these few communications with the bronze eagle ring, Elena initially determined that Ravenclaw's eagle ring is actually more similar to a more primitive elementary ai with certain thinking skills, as well as information input, judgment, and output Features.

This means that it is not competent for autonomous deduction of complex mathematical tasks.

In other words, if you want Eagle Ring to propose the barber paradox, that is, Russell's Paradox, first of all, she needs to help Eagle Ring complete at least one standard answer to this question. Bronze Eagle Ring added "Barber Paradox" to the question bank in "Built-in Logic".

Of course, if she did that, maybe students at Ravenclaw College would n’t want to go back to the dorm again this year.

So after pondering a little, Elena chose to instill in some more basic places. After all, the mathematics foundation of most of the little wizards at Hogwarts may not reach the average level of European elementary school graduates.

"I still don't understand. Is there a village in this world that only tells lies and truth?"

Xenophilius Lovegood rubbed his forehead and tried to think about one of the classic examples that Elena had just "updated" to the bronze eagle ring. They stood at the fork, and the two people who were in charge of the way should only have one chance to ask questions. How to ask questions ...

"Of course." Elena nodded without hesitation. "Or, you understand that in one village, the daily drinking water is all vomiting agents, while in the other village, the daily drinking water is all lies. That's it. "

"Potion of lies? What is that, how can I not know that there is such a thing ..."

Xenophilius raised an eyebrow in confusion.

"Oh, you understand it as a magic potion that is the opposite of true vomiting."

Elena waved her hand and fooled over her temporary potion.

Anyway, there is nothing strange about the world. Proving that a thing does not exist is always more difficult than proving that a thing exists.

Just as the famous saying said with Einstein: "Science can only prove existence, cannot prove non-existence, cannot prove something that does not exist, and you cannot explain that it does not exist."

And when all this happened in the magic world, the Lovegood family and "Singing Contrary" are undoubtedly the most appropriate cases, whether it is "bent snoring beast", "harassing gadfly", or what is "moon frog", "Giant with octopus tentacles" is the same.

Click.

While Xenofilius Lovegood continued to search for information about the "liquid lie" in his mind, he only heard a soft door closing sound in front of him, and a sentence floating in the door slit Out words.

"Luna, come, I will show you around Ravenclaw's lounge."

"Hmm? Wait ..."

Xenophilius Lovegood raised his head in a daze and looked around.

I do n’t know when Elena has pulled his baby ’s little moon through the open eagle ring door, into the Ravenclaw common room, and ... and closed the door again? !

Fortunately, if Xenophilius Lovegood remembers correctly, although the Hawk Ring at Ravenclaw College will occasionally cause some headaches, it will not change too many times on the same day. topic.

At least in such a short period of time, it should still be the same problem.

Without much thought, Xenofilius Lovegood quickly knocked on the bronze eagle ring, he could not rest assured that his daughter was alone with a little wizard of unknown details, even if the other party was just a 1.2-meter little loli same.

And just as he remembered, I saw the bronze eagle ring open, and said again with a gentle voice:

"A certain number of three-headed dogs and phoenixes are locked in one room at the same time, counting from above ..."

"The answer is thirteen phoenixes and eleven three-headed dogs."

Before waiting for the bronze eagle ring to finish the title, Xenofilius Lovegood frowned and interrupted quickly.

Even if I don't know how this answer came out, it doesn't prevent him from remembering Elena's correct answer just now.

In fact, this is also the usual practice of Ravenclaw College. As long as a smart person solves the puzzle, everyone can successfully enter the lounge.

However, to his surprise, this time, the gate of the common room did not open as he remembered.

"... count sixty-four heads from above and a total of 182 feet from below. How many three-headed dogs and how many phoenixes are there in the room?"

"???

The expression on Xenofilius Lovegood's face froze again. Although it sounded like it was the same problem at first glance, think about it, what's wrong with this situation?

Immediately after ~ www.ltnovel.com ~ seems to respond to the confusion in Xenophilius.

I saw that the bronze eagle ring that had accompanied the middle-aged wizard for seven years on campus opened his mouth again, and continued to add with that gentle, music-like voice.

"Sorry, wrong answer."

"???

Xenofilius Lovegood's eyes, which were slightly protruding outwards, widened a bit. His line of sight subconsciously crossed the row of light blue velvet sleeping bags hanging on the corridor wall below, a very bad Guess suddenly appeared in his mind. If it is said that this problem is indeed regarded as the same topic by Eagle Ring, then ...

Sure enough, at the next moment, I only heard a gentle reappearance in the mouth of the bronze eagle ring, but it repeated like a devil whisper.

"A certain number of three-headed dogs and phoenixes are closed in one room at the same time, and one hundred and twenty-five heads are counted from above ..."
