Chapter 305: Trial (Part II)
Chapter 305: Trial (II)
"It seems that our answers are not very consistent." Grandma said, "But we're fair, let's find out." Grandma waved her hand, and immediately someone walked over and opened the cricket box. Begin to count the crickets in front of us one by one. I watched as the crickets were taken out one by one and put all of them into the cricket jar, and soon all the crickets were counted, and finally it turned out that my answer was correct.
"How is that possible? I can count them clearly, the number of dead bugs is so much, how could it be wrong. Gozen said unhappily.
"Girl, how did you know that the number of dead people would be so much?" Grandma asked me, but I could see a look of pride in her eyes.
"It's a prediction, I did find that only nineteen were dead when I counted just now, but there are still two, it can be said that they are dying, although these crickets are gathered together, the space is very small, and it will be easier to catch, but this cricket is still a small thing after all, and it will always take some time to catch it, and the two dying ones will definitely not last at this time." I said, "And if you let people hold on again now, Grandma, you'll find that there will be at least two fewer crickets." ”
Grandma nodded at a few assistants, and they immediately began to check the cricket jars, and sure enough, two jars were picked out, and the crickets inside were already dead. I saw my grandmother smile at me, obviously acknowledging my performance.
"Okay, you'll pass the first competition. However, the second test was not so easy. Grandma's expression was a little weird, she pointed to the second box, someone ripped off the black cloth on it, this time I was really going to completely collapse, people with dense phobia must not see such a scene, the box was densely packed with bees, if it weren't for the sound insulation effect of the box, the buzzing of those bees would be very harsh.
"These are bees sent from our Kui's apiary, but it's not just bees, it's also earth bees. This kind of native bee looks very similar to a bee. All you have to do is count out the number of bees. Grandma said.
This time it wasn't just me who felt a little bit difficult. Even Wu Shan frowned, you know, this small box contains thousands of bees, how can this be counted.
"There is no time limit for you. Before dinner though. I see your answers. After saying that, Grandma left the place where we were tested. He went back to his room to rest. Wushan and I stared at each other with wide eyes, and then smiled bitterly, now this situation. Even if we cooperate, we may not be able to lose clearly.
"I'm quitting." Goseon sat on the ground with a gloomy face. "I'll tell the old donor later, I can't count, it's too much." Gozen said and walked out, obviously not going to try, and I was the only one left, still looking at the box full of bees and worrying.
"This wasp is also called a wasp, this wasp is very small, likes to hide in the soil, and has a habit of burrowing into the soil when it encounters it." A cold voice sounded behind me, and it was like I saw a savior.
"Ziyang, don't talk about that, what's the use of just knowing habits, what we need to know now is how many of these damn earth bees there are." I said, "Hurry up and help me figure it out, my Heavenly Pupil is not strong enough, and my memory can't hold so many bee characteristics, I can't remember it at all." ”
"What is your grandma asking?" Ji Ziyang asked.
"Oh, you're not knowingly asking, it's the quantity." I say.
"What did she say?" Ziyang asked.
Her exact words...... She just said let's tell her the number of bees. I replied.
"That's right, have you ever wondered why she only asked about the number of earth bees and not the number of bees this time?" Ziyang asked.
"That's because there are too many bees...... That's right...... There are too many, which means that I don't care about any bees at all, I just count the number of earth bees. "I was so happy, I quickly opened the pupil of heaven and looked carefully, but it still didn't work, and I encountered a problem again." Ziyang, no, I can't see it, the colors of this earth bee and the bee are too close, and if you are not careful, you will be mistaken, and if you get it wrong, you will still fail. I said.
"That's why I'm going to make sure with you if it's just the number of bees, and if so, it's easy to do." Ziyang said, "Beekeepers generally deliberately put a few native bees in the bee's nest, the native bees are aggressive, so that the bees have always had the awareness of building a nest to resist, but in order to keep the survival of the bees from being too badly damaged, they generally do not put too many native bees, now you know how to do it." Ji Ziyang said.
"You mean ......" I suddenly seemed to understand.
"It's almost two hours before dinner time, enough to dig a big pot of sand, by the way, the dirt on the mountain behind you is still suitable, a little moisture, pretty good." Oh yes, by the way, this native bee is not heat-tolerant. After Ziyang finished speaking, he floated out, still holding a lollipop in his mouth.
Back Mountain! Without further ado, I hurriedly grabbed the big basin I used to change the water in the fish tank on weekdays, and hurried to the back mountain. During this time, he passed by Gozen, who was sulking in the yard, and when he saw me in a hurry, he seemed to want to ask me something, but I didn't care about it.
When dinner time came, my grandmother returned, and she sat on a chair looking at the beehive in front of her, and there seemed to be doubt in her eyes, because the beehive had been moved by me and placed in a large wooden basin filled with earth, and the wooden basin had been placed in the yard by me.
"Grandma, did you say you want to know the number of soil bees?" I asked.
"That's right." Grandma nodded and said.
"Then please take a good look." I walked over as I spoke, opened the lid of the box inside, and ran away quickly, and a large swarm of bees swarmed out, and flew everywhere in the blink of an eye, and I was on the side, and sure enough, I saw a few small figures flying out, circling for a while for the dirt, and then burrowing into the dirt.
After a while, when all the bees had dispersed, I sealed the tub with the plastic sheet I had prepared, and then stuffed a few lit matches through the cracks in the edges, and the bees came out of the heat, and scurried around in the tub, and I began to count them, and there were only six bees in the bees.
"Grandma, there are six earth bees." I say.
"That's right, that's right." Grandma said.
"But it's not like we've let the bees go." Wushan said unwillingly.
"Alright, that's the end of today's trial, girl, you've passed." Grandma said and stood up, "Let's go, go to the dining hall and have dinner with me." As soon as I heard my grandmother's tone, I knew that she was happy, and my heart was already happy.
There was still that pumpkin soup for dinner, I drank two bowls in one go, and what was even more amazing was that my grandmother didn't stop me, and after dinner, I wanted to go to the yard to fight a set of punches, but my grandmother stopped me.
"Girl, stop practicing, go, go to your room, I have something to say to you." Grandma said.
I quickly followed my grandmother back to the room, and when I entered the room, my grandmother sat at the table, and I sat opposite her.
"Girl, you performed well in today's trial." Grandma's first time complimenting me so directly, I was about to laugh out loud in my heart. "In the first game, in addition to saying the right answer, you also made a prediction, which is very good, and the entire Kui family will be handed over to you in the future, and prediction is a basic premise to ensure the development of the family business. Our Kui family has not disappeared in the succession of dynasties and generations, because we know how to predict and know how to protect ourselves. In the second scene, you didn't use the Heavenly Pupil, which I'm very happy about. As I can guess, the old ghost must have given you a lot of hints, but what I'm trying to tell you is that whether or not someone helped remind you this time, you have to remember that although you are gifted, using these supernatural abilities is not the only way out, and you must understand that in order to achieve your goals, you don't care what means and methods are used. Of course, I don't mean to let you hurt others, our Kui family has not done bad things for generations, I mean to let you learn to be flexible, do you understand? Grandma said earnestly.
"Grandma, I have memorized everything you said, and I will definitely do what you say." I said respectfully.
"No, it's not like that, just like the decision you made recently, becoming the youngest director of the 17th Bureau of the Central Security Bureau, and privately deciding to go to the tomb for scientific research, I didn't stop you, grandma wants you to be a filial child, but I don't want you to be an obedient child. If you are too obedient, you will lose your own judgment. The most important thing for a family leader is to be assertive, and if he can't let it go, it will be easy to lose his authority to his subordinates, and he will also be taken advantage of by others. Grandma said.
I nodded, and I knew in my heart that what my grandmother said was right.
"Girl, have a good rest tonight, starting tomorrow, I am going to teach you the secret skills of our Kui family, and after the gas collection is finished tomorrow morning, I will go directly to the stone cave in the back mountain." After grandma finished speaking, she got up and was about to leave, so I hurriedly spoke.
"Grandma, what kind of secret technique is the secret technique of the Kui family that you are going to hand over to me?" I asked, this is something I've always been curious about, I saw the kind of candle circle that grandma used to seal Yun Ning before, and I felt that there were still many things on my grandma that I didn't know, and I felt that it was very magical.
"The secret art of our Kui family is a real secret art, and some of it is a study, because it will really help people. However, there are some that are too demanding on the environment and people's physical conditions, and they are not suitable for cultivation for a long time. Others, ...... "Grandma wants to speak and stops."
"Grandma, then ...... What the? I asked.
"And some of them are...... You can't cultivate. (To be continued......)
