    I would say the pig.

    They say that everything in the pig is good, but there's also talk of a pig's turn.

    The slap.

    With one hand, it’s a slap that provokes the duel.

    And it takes both hands to use the bellows that will rekindle the flame.

    For your information,

    In the Excel workbook, you go to "tools < protection < unprotect
    and you will be able to display the missing column where all the answers to the riddles of Father Fourasse are located...

    Have a good day
