Can anyone plz say that why did my solution for the 4th question(based on mo’s ) time out?

I used mo’s with segment tree,where seg[3:7] will denote the minimum possible ans of all nodes whose values come between the range (3,7),i mean lets say node 1- 4,node 9-6 so seg[3,7]=20

Complexity is Q*sqrt(N)*logN
