Chapter 1299 Determination
Most people present did not expect an additional test in the end, but Lin Haoming noticed that when Mrs. Jin was talking about the additional test, her eyes were still staring at the letter paper. Obviously, the person who set the question had long expected such a result, so the additional test content was also on it.
Sure enough, at this time, Mrs. Jin finally spread the letter paper to everyone, which really had three competition contents on it, and in the end, there was really one of the additional test rules.
Lin Haoming just glanced over the final test content, and actually asked the two children to sit in a pot, add water to the pot, and set a fire below. Whoever can boil in the pot with the water temperature rising for a long time will win.
Seeing such a competition, Lin Haoming felt a little uncomfortable. It was obvious that if this competition was accidentally killed, it might cause human death. However, the life of a child who had not yet embarked on the path of immortal cultivation was nothing to these monks present.
Lin Haoming, who was still a little interested in Tianyuntang, couldn't help but feel a little disgusted. He would rather see the arenas that fight against each other than see the life of the child who has no power to gamble. He even wanted Xia Rulan to admit defeat, but when he looked at Xia Rulan, the girl with slightly yellow hair and even a little thin hair showed a strong look in her eyes.
The two pots were quickly moved out by the maid, and the fire on the ground was directly burned by the flames sprayed by the two maids with two gourds, which ensures that the temperature on both sides is almost the same.
Because it was just plain water at the beginning, it was not hot for a while. After making these preparations, the two girls also brought them to the two pots.
They seemed to know what to do next, and although they also knew that it seemed a bit dangerous, for the final victory, neither of the girls crawled into the pot without hesitation.
As soon as the water was in, the water temperature was just right. If you took a bath, it would be comfortable. But for a while, the obviously high temperature made both girls feel a little uncomfortable, but they were unwilling to give up.
The flames sprayed out of the gourd were not big, otherwise the two pots of water would have boiled long ago, but even so, the two girls were already sweating profusely and their skin was even more unusually red.
Lin Haoming knew that this time was already the limit that ordinary people could endure, and if they continued, they might die.
The farm girl looked at Xia Rulan at this time, as if she was a little anxious. She knew she couldn't help it and hoped that Xia Rulan would come out immediately. However, although Xia Rulan looked so ugly, she smiled at her, as if she had no intention of going out at all.
The farm girl was stunned by Xia Rulan's smile. She even couldn't figure out what Xia Rulan was going to do. At this moment, Xia Rulan was confused in the water, as if she was about to faint. At the end, she grabbed the edge of the pot with both hands, used all her strength, and let out a loud scream, as if telling others about her determination.
"Pu!" Finally, the farm girl was frightened by Xia Rulan's scream. She couldn't stand it and jumped out of the pot with the last strength. After Xia Rulan screamed, she fainted.
Xia Rulan felt that she seemed to have returned to her childhood. When she was still a baby in her cradle, her mother was so warm. How long has it been since her parents left? Her uncle occupied the fields left by her parents, and then sold herself to another rich family in a village dozens of miles away as a maid. In her memory, there was no warmth in her memory. Until today, someone actually gave her a name. She never thought that she would have a name.
"Are you getting better?" He suddenly heard his voice again, so gentle.
"Are you okay?" When she heard the sound again, Xia Rulan suddenly opened her eyes. At this time, she said that she was lying in the arms of this man. Although his arms were much stronger than his mother, they were also so warm.
"I... did I win?" At this moment, she suddenly remembered what happened just now, and subconsciously left this warm embrace.
Lin Haoming looked at her stubborn and laughed softly: "I won, actually..."
"Just win, I finally failed your expectations!" After hearing the result, Xia Rulan was so excited that Lin Haoming didn't finish his words.
Lin Haoming looked at her and couldn't help but touch her head again, and then said firmly: "Mrs. Jin, I have a fate with this girl and want to accept her as my disciple. I wonder if Mrs. Jin's Tianji Guild Hall is willing to give up?"
"Hehe, Fellow Daoist Chu, I didn't expect that a gambling game would make you think of taking disciples. But this girl is not from my guild, so I can't make a decision!" Mrs. Jin said deliberately.
Lin Haoming heard this and sneered, "A little girl, Mrs. Jin, you are so hesitant. Could it be that Mrs. Jin is having some difficulties? Or is Chu really useless to face?"
Seeing that Lin Haoming was about to turn against a worthless little girl, Mrs. Jin was a little surprised, but she seemed to have discovered that the guy named Chu Yu in front of her was actually a person who values feelings. It was interesting to have such a person who could practice to this point now.
At this time, she didn't want to cause any accidents for a little girl, so she finally pretended to be helpless and said, "Okay, I will explain this to those who have these children, and I will become a beauty!"
After hearing Mrs. Jin's words, Lin Haoming felt relieved.
Xia Rulan is also very smart. Seeing this, she would kneel down and become a disciple.
However, Lin Haoming grabbed her at this time, prevented her from kneeling down, and then sent a message in her ear: "Don't worship me. I just said that I would accept you as my disciple. It was just an excuse for me. I did not intend to accept you as my disciple, but I planned to take you to worship another person as my teacher."
Xia Rulan was shocked when she saw Lin Haoming's mouth not moving, but she heard the sound. After hearing these words, her originally excited expression immediately became much more depressed. Obviously, she did not want to leave Lin Haoming.
Lin Haoming smiled and touched her head, and sent a message again: "The person I plan to make you apprentice is not here. At least for a long time, you will follow me, so don't be too sad!"
Hearing this, Xia Rulan breathed a sigh of relief and showed a wise smile to Lin Haoming. Her two crescent-shaped eyes were also particularly playful and cute at this time.
Just as Lin Haoming and Xia Rulan were talking, Mrs. Jin had already continued to preside over the final treasure selection level.
After the Chaos Box was placed on the 108 stone platforms, Mrs. Jin asked Lin Haoming to choose again.
