Finally, it was Qiao Weiying's turn to choose. He did not choose one immediately like An Lei. He also patrolled the last five children. Of these five children, there were three boys and two girls left. After groping for a while, he gave up. Instead of choosing the three boys, he chose between two girls, and finally chose a girl who seemed to be born in a peasant family.
After the child selection was over, Mrs. Jin asked the remaining children to go back. The four selected children were taken to four rooms and taught for an hour.
Although these four rooms are all airtight, the shadow crystals have been prevented in advance to prevent someone from deliberately cheating at this time. According to the regulations, they are not allowed to teach skills, or forcibly instill any content, and they are not allowed to take pills. .
Lin Haoming led the girl, who looked like a bean sprout, into the room.
Lin Haoming sat directly on a chair, then took out a piece of fruit and took a bite.
This fruit is just an ordinary spiritual fruit, but it is not bad if it can be liked by Lin Haoming. When it is taken out, the aroma can't help but waft out, making the little girl in front of her swallow her saliva, but she seems to be very Realizing that he was embarrassed in front of this person, he pinched his thigh hard with his fingers, his eyes still filled with stubbornness.
Lin Haoming looked at it and found it interesting. He smiled and asked, "Girl, what's your name?"
"My surname is Xia!" the girl replied loudly.
"Where's the name?" Lin Haoming asked as he took another bite of the fruit.
"I don't have a name. Master calls me Erya!" The girl seemed to be a little inferior and said, her voice seemed to be softer than before.
"Let me give you a name. How about Rulan? Xia Ruolan!" Lin Haoming said this for some reason. After speaking, he deliberately got a cup of tea, dipped some tea in it, and wrote the word Xia Rulan on the side.
"Xia Rulan!" The girl looked at the three words on the table and couldn't help but be surprised. Obviously the girl didn't expect that the first thing the stranger in front of her did was to give herself a name.
"Thank you for the name, sir!" the girl said excitedly.
Lin Haoming looked at the grateful look in her eyes, and his heart moved. Although he didn't know the girl's past life, he must have been unhappy in life, but he could still maintain his true nature in this way. Not only was he a smart child, but once he embarked on the path of cultivating immortality, he would be... Ruolan’s determination to follow the path will not be lost to Ruolan.
Lin Haoming then asked: "You shouldn't have learned any martial arts or anything, right?"
"Well, I haven't learned anything. I... I used to be just a maid, but I have some strength!" Perhaps because of the name, the girl had an unspeakable affection for Lin Haoming, and she seemed to want to express herself at this moment.
At this time, Lin Haoming also felt that this girl was not bad at heart, at least she still retained the innocence that a child should have.
Facing such a child, Lin Haoming couldn't help but smile. He originally wanted to teach this child some martial arts skills, but he gave up the idea. After all, he only had one hour. Even if he really taught her some, she would probably not be able to face those strong boys. Not an opponent.
In this case, Lin Haoming felt relieved and started chatting with the girl casually.
Perhaps because Lin Haoming gave people a feeling of intimacy, Xia Rulan couldn't help but tell her life experience.
As expected, it was consistent with what Lin Haoming had guessed. Both of Xia Ruolan's free parents died. She was sold by her uncle to a local wealthy family as a slave when she was six years old. She suffered a lot in the past two years until someone from the Tianji Guild Hall discovered that she had it. The fairly good spiritual roots were brought here, and she only knew that she was favored by the legendary immortal, but she seemed to understand that the so-called immortal was completely different from what she imagined, so she had always been a little afraid.
When Lin Haoming saw her like this, he simply explained what the world of immortality was and let the girl understand some truth.
Xia Rulan was obviously a little surprised by Lin Haoming's description of the cruelty of the world of immortality. After all, she had just been brought back and was unfamiliar with everything.
Seeing that an hour had almost passed, when Lin Haoming shut up, Xia Rulan knelt down directly, kowtowed to Lin Haoming, and said sincerely: "Thank you for your advice!"
Lin Haoming was sure at this time that this woman was indeed extremely intelligent. At least half of the eight-year-old children definitely did not have such a mind. He thought that she might have deliberately concealed some of her own bitterness when telling her story.
Looking at this bean sprout-like girl, Lin Haoming actually had the idea of accepting her as his disciple, but he gave up the idea because he was in a different place now and couldn't even reveal his identity. This girl was so kind. , it will definitely not be buried in Tianji Guild Hall.
As time passed, the last hour passed. Lin Haoming and Xia Rulan returned to the lobby of Tianyun Hall. When they came, Lin Haoming also glanced at the others. The child An Lei chose still looked like a child. With a calm and calm look, the child chosen by the Qiu-bearded monk was full of confidence, as if this victory was his own. The girl Qiao Weiying chose was the biggest contrast to before, and she seemed particularly calm at this time. It can be seen that Qiao Weiying still has a lot of talent. Means.
Lin Haoming looked at them, and they also looked at Lin Haoming and others. Of course, what made people more curious was the envelope that Mrs. Jin had put here early in the morning.
At this time, Mrs. Jin also walked out, went directly to the envelope, picked up the envelope with a smile and said: "Okay, one hour is up, and then it's time for the three competitions!"
Mrs. Jin opened the envelope at this moment, smiled at everyone and said: "Okay, four of you, let the four children come over. The content of this first game is very simple. Later, four common people will be hung from the beams. Four children are hanging on an ordinary rope. Whoever can hold on the longest is the winner. Because there are three competitions, the first place can get three points, the second place can get two points, and the third place can get one point. There is no last place, the three competitions are added up, whoever has more points wins."
"I will definitely win this game!" After Mrs. Jin said that, the child on the other side of the big man with a beard clapped his chest confidently. He was the strongest among the four children. Obviously he felt that this game Your own chance is the best.
Lin Haoming looked at Xia Rulan, then at the other two children, but a mysterious smile flashed at the corner of his mouth.
At this time, Lao Hei had ordered the maid to hang four ropes of the same length and thickness in the lobby. The ends of the ropes were more than half a foot high from the ground.
The four children were sent to the rope by the four maids. In addition to the height of the children, even the burliest child could grasp the end of the rope more than a foot above the ground. After all four children had grasped it, the competition began.
