Chapter 41 Recruiting Relatives IV

Lin Ruoxi felt that Liu Dayou couldn't answer such a simple history quiz question, and she doubted even more that he had shown his "real talent and real learning" in the previous rounds; She smiled and said, "Mr. Liu Dayou, don't you think it's a pity that you didn't answer such a simple question?" Remember, think clearly before raising your hand next time, see if you can answer the question, if you are not sure that you can answer correctly, I recommend that you don't raise your hand, because you will be deducted points if you answer wrong. ”

Liu Dayou's face became even hotter, and he really wanted to find a crack in the ground to get into. Her "reminder" caused him a lot of psychological pressure.

The second question raised by Lin Ruoxi was: In which year, month, and day did the Japanese troops stationed in China brazenly launch the Lugou Bridge Incident against China?

This time, it was Lu Xiaobai who raised his hand first, followed by Feng Tianyu, and finally Liu Dayou. When Liu Dayou raised his hand, he glanced at Lu Xiaobai, his hand seemed to be a little reluctant, but it seemed that he had to raise it.

Lin Ruoxi set her eyes on Lu Xiaobai, she saw a firm gaze in his eyes, and knew that he had won the battle, so she said with confidence: "Lu Xiaobai, please answer the question I just asked." ”

Lu Xiaobai replied with great certainty: "It was July 7, 1937." ”

Lin Ruoxi gave Lu Xiaobai an approving look, and she continued to ask the following questions

In this round of competition, Lu Xiaobai answered 8 questions correctly and 2 questions incorrectly, Feng Tianyu answered 2 questions correctly and 1 incorrectly, and Liu Dayou answered 1 question correctly and 1 incorrectly. Lu Xiaobai won.

In the round of "Common Sense of Life", Lin Ruoxi asked a total of 15 questions, all of which were relatively simple, such as "Are potato sprouts really poisonous", "Will smoking harm health" and so on. Lu Xiaobai also showed that he was excellent and finally won the first place.

In fact, Liu Dayou has many opportunities to answer, but due to the influence of his previous mistakes, he has a shadow in his heart, worried that he will be ridiculed for answering the wrong questions, so he missed many opportunities in vain, and at the same time, he still has the psychology of being opportunistic, he hopes that Lu Xiaobai and Feng Tianyu will answer the question incorrectly every time, so that he can win the game "with defense as offense"; Feng Tianyu also had many opportunities to answer, but he deliberately gave the opportunity to Lu Xiaobai, and he knew very well that the purpose of his and Lu Xiaobai's participation in this competition was to do his best to get Zhang Huanhuan free from the shackles of "arranged marriage".

When Zhang Kui saw that Lu Xiaobai defeated Liu Dayou with an unstoppable advantage in these three rounds of talent competition, he finally let out a long breath and secretly decided to marry his daughter to Lu Xiaobai. In Zhang Kui's heart, Lu Xiaobai is not only as beautiful as a crown of jade, but also smart and clever, and his daughter is a natural pair, make a pair of ground, marry his daughter to him, and his daughter's father's face will add brilliance! So, he stood up and prepared to announce his decision in public: "In these three rounds of talent competition, Lu Xiaobai was able to pass all the way in an absolute disadvantage, and finally caught up with Liu Dayou, it is obvious that Lu Xiaobai's talent surpassed Liu Dayou, so I decided"

Tan Zuming interrupted him and said, "Brother Zhang, you're too subjective, aren't you?" They are tied, and the winner is still unclear. ”

Zhang Kui said loudly: "There is no need to compete, in my mind, the winner is already known!" ”

Liu Dayou knew that he was far inferior to Lu Xiaobai in terms of appearance and intelligence, and he was already in deep danger, and now seeing Zhang Kui say this, he knew that Zhang Kui would not marry his daughter to himself, so he couldn't help but get anxious, and stood up and said: "The victory and defeat have not been scored, you can't be unreasonable, and marry Huanhuan to that kid!" The "kid" in his mouth is, of course, Lu Xiaobai.

Zhang Kui said bluntly: "Your talent is not as good as others, and the son-in-law I am looking for is a man with outstanding talents, so I can only be sorry for you." He originally wanted to say "both talent and appearance", but he felt that saying this would hurt Liu Dayou's self-esteem, so he changed his word alertly.

Liu Dayou is very psychologically unbalanced, if it weren't for Lin Ruoxi's intervention, Zhang Huanhuan, the beautiful swan, would have belonged to him, but now, seeing that Zhang Kui was going to marry his daughter to Lu Xiaobai, he was not only anxious, but also very sad. He knew that there was no hope, but he still had to make the last struggle, he said: "It's not right for you to say that, I was very good in the first few rounds of competition, but I didn't play well in these three rounds, so I lost to this kid surnamed Lu." If he and I were to try to write essays and poems, we wouldn't know who would win and who would lose. ”

Zhang Kui smiled disdainfully, didn't speak, just thought, I don't know whose hand your article came from!

Tan Zuming said to Zhang Kui: "Since ancient times, there is no first in literature, there is no second in martial arts, Liu Dayou has a hoof before the horse, and it can only be said that he is unlucky; And Lu Xiaobai won in these three rounds of competition, and luck also accounted for some. ”

At this time, someone in the crowd who had a good relationship with Liu Dayou stood up and said: "Lao Zhang, I don't think you are authentic at all, Liu Dayou lost to this out-of-town boy in these three rounds, but they are still tied, you can't kick Liu Dayou away because he looks inferior, in my opinion, who will be your son-in-law still needs to be discussed, and you can't judge people by their appearance." ”

"Yes, Liu Da is not bad, Lao Zhang, you should reconsider."

Some people also said mischievously: "What else are you considering, in my opinion, Zhang Huanhuan married them, and one daughter served two husbands." "This man is a hairy boy of seventeen or eighteen years old.

"Shit!" Zhang Kui angrily reprimanded the person who spoke without knowing the height of the sky.

The man immediately lowered his head and was silent.

Lin Ruoxi saw that his uncle and Liu Dayou and others were in a stalemate, so he said: "Everyone can't solve the problem by clamoring, otherwise, add another round of competition, whoever wins in this round of competition, who if Liu Dayou wins, my cousin will follow him, if he loses, he will stop beating my cousin's idea!" She wanted to say, "Who is Zhang Huanhuan's fiancΓ©", but suddenly felt that she shouldn't say this, so she immediately changed her words.

Hearing that there was another competition, Liu Dayou was not happy at all, because he knew that his chances of winning were very small, but the initiative was in the hands of others, and he was unhappy and had no choice.

What will you try in this round?

Some people build yì to play rock-paper-scissors, and a handful is determined to win or lose; Someone builds a poem to write, and whoever writes a good poem wins; There are even people who try to wrestle, and whoever knocks the other person down wins.

But these buildings were all denied by Lin Ruoxi and Tan Zuming, because Liu Dayou and Lu Xiaobai are not good at poetry, what can a person who doesn't know anything about rules and regulations do? Playing games and wrestling are pediatric and insulting, and they have nothing to do with talent, so it's not worth it.

Just when Lin Ruoxi was worried about what exam questions were suitable, Tan Zuming suddenly pointed to the magpie nest on a tall walnut tree on the side of the yard and said: "The previous competition belongs to the talent category, although it is exciting, but it is not exciting enough, now I ask Liu Dayou and Lu Xiaobai to have a real sense of intelligence and physical competition, whoever first finds a way to bring down the bird's nest on this tree within an hour, who wins the final competition!" ”

Lin Ruoxi opened her mouth unconsciously wide, she looked up at the walnut tree, and saw that the stem of the tree was straight, not to mention that there were two people hugging each other, and the branches grew at a height of more than ten meters. With such a tall tree, it is impossible for anyone to climb it with bare hands, and Tan Zuming came up with such an exam question, obviously intentionally to embarrass people, but this is the best.

Yes, Tan Zuming is deliberately embarrassed, he thinks that since Liu Dayou can't marry Zhang Huanhuan, then a stranger from other places should not want to marry Zhang Huanhuan!

Liu Dayou walked over quickly and climbed awkwardly a few times holding the tree trunk, but did not climb up, so he walked back disheartened, and secretly blamed Tan Zuming for giving him a big problem. But when he saw the mysterious smile on the corner of Tan Zuming's mouth, he suddenly realized the true purpose of what he was doing. So, Liu Dayou also looked at Lin Ruoxi and Lu Xiaobai with the mentality of "I'm not happy and I won't let you feel better", he wanted to see what they could do!

Everyone thought that there was really no way to go on with the event.

Tan Zuming and Liu Dayou were proud, but Lu Xiaobai said to Tan Zuming very confidently: "I will definitely bring down the bird's nest!" ”

As soon as he said this, everyone present was very surprised, how could he go up such a thick tree pole? Even Lin Ruoxi and Feng Tianyu wondered if he was joking.

Tan Zuming smiled disappetively and asked, "Young man, are you kidding?" ”

Lu Xiaobai said seriously: "I'm not joking. ”

Tan Zuming thought, how could he go up? Do you want to climb? The trunk is so thick, it can't be! Make a long wooden ladder to climb up with it? That's even more impossible, just give him an hour, he can't make a ladder in such a short time! What else can he do? Hmph, I'm afraid that this kid doesn't know the height of the sky and the thickness of the earth, and he just blows the conch! So he said in a playful tone, "Are you a monkey?" ”

Lu Xiaobai smiled and said, "I'm not a monkey, but I'm smarter than a monkey." ”

"Really?" Tan Zuming hugged his hands to his chest and looked at him arrogantly, "I want to see how smart you are!" ”

After Lu Xiaobai said "yes", he walked to the little boy with a bow and arrow in a hurry, took out ten yuan and shook it twice in front of the little boy's eyes, and said to him with a smile: "Little friend, lend this thing in your hand to my brother, and my brother will use the money to buy you candy to eat, okay?" He believes that money is the best way to solve problems.

The little boy's eyes lit up when he saw Qian, and he handed the bow and arrow to Lu Xiaobai without hesitation.

After Lu Xiaobai handed the money to the little boy, he asked Zhang Huanhuan to find a rope, and he asked for a thick rope and a thin rope. Zhang Huanhuan agreed, and hurriedly went into the house to find the rope.

Liu Dayou was very puzzled when he saw Lu Xiaobai asking for a rope, and said in his heart what was he doing here? However, Lin Ruoxi and Tan Zuming suddenly realized that Lu Xiaobai was going to use the power of the bow and arrow to send the rope to the tree branch, and then grab the rope and climb up.

Okay, you Lu Xiaobai, you are really smart! Tan Zuming had to secretly admire.

I saw that after Lu Xiaobai tied the fine hemp rope to the tail of the arrow, he held the bow in one hand, put the arrow on the string with the other, took a big step with his left foot, and then bent his knees, pulled the bow and shot it towards the gap between the branches. He attached the thick rope to the thin rope and pulled the rope so that the thick rope flowed back over the trunk to the ground.

Lin Ruoxi, Feng Tianyu and Zhang Kui were all excited, and praised Lu Xiaobai's method for being very clever, and even Zhang Huanhuan, who has never liked to talk, said two "good" words in his mouth; However, Liu Dayou and Tan Zuming looked at Lu Xiaobai, who was busy working in an orderly manner, with a depressed face, and there was nothing they could do.

Lu Xiaobai spat and rubbed his palms a few times, then held the rope with both hands, and climbed up with his hands and feet. He used a certain amount of skill in the process of climbing, only to see him tuck his abdomen and bend his legs to clamp the rope, then push his legs straight, and bend his arms to rise in pull-ups, the movements are coherent, and he does it in one go.

He climbed to the branch and rested for a while before creeping cautiously towards the bird's nest. It is an old spherical nest that has been abandoned by magpies. He threw down the branches of the bird's nest and it took him half a day to finish it. He did this to avoid Tan Zuming's tricks, he was afraid that Tan Zuming would deliberately embarrass him if he said something like "This doesn't count, you didn't bring down the entire bird's nest".
