71 should be the answer as it is the only prime no in the series.

The difference between 1st two number is 7 now add 2 in the difference of 1st 2 no. You will get the difference but 2nd and 3rd. Similarly, adds 2 in this difference you will get different between 3rd and 4th. Check in this way you will find that 135 is wrong instead of this there should be 136.

So 71 should also be the right answer.
So 71 should also be the right answer.

Yes this logic is right.
But If we say 71 is the only odd number in the series where others are even then?
