(202) Selection

[Chapter 45]

A few days later, on the large empty field outside the Yugutang house group.

Tang Yong, the head of the Yugu Hall, sat on a chair with Tie Wandao and discussed something, and under their chair was a large carpet. It turned out that this carpet was specially ordered by Tang Yong to welcome the arrival of Tie Wandao and his men. In addition to the large carpet under the chairs of the two, there are many colorful carpets on both sides of the empty space. Although the carpets were long, they were not very long, and they were not large. Colorful carpets are laid out one by one, adding some vitality to the otherwise somewhat desolate empty space.

Standing beside Tie Wandao was a subordinate named Wang Qi, who looked at the orphans who were waiting in line for selection from a distance. After a while, it's up to him to ask questions.

This time, Tie Wandao is to select a sparring partner who meets his requirements from among the many seven to ten-year-old orphans who have come to apply, and will mainly be used to accompany Tie Hongyan to practice martial arts in the future, but the task of this orphan is not limited to this, Tie Hongyan does some other things in life, and this sparring partner also needs to follow. It is not so much that the selection is a sparring partner, but that the selection is a life escort who is not much different in age from Tie Hongyan. The selected orphans will leave the Orphanage Hall and live in the main hall of the Iron Cangting, and some of their living treatment will meet the standards of Iron Red Flame.

In Tie Wandao's opinion, the reason why Tie Hongyan is not good at practicing martial arts is also related to her lack of an escort. Tie Wandao thought that if a child practiced martial arts with her and did things together, maybe it would arouse her interest in some things, and she might be much easier to discipline.

Since Tie Hongyan only returned to live in the Tiecang Court Hall at the age of seven, the children of other powerful people were not familiar with her. Not long after Tie Hongyan returned, those children heard from their elders that Tie Hongyan was a "young patriarch" who had no skills and did not seek advancement, and their elders had also told them to "leave if you see Tie Hongyan and say hello" and "don't approach her", so they would not have much intersection with Tie Hongyan at all. In addition, Tie Hongyan was very strictly guarded by Tie Wandao before, and even if the children of other powerful people wanted to pay attention to her, they would hardly have a chance to see her. During the time that Tie Wandao allowed her to play, she always played by herself, and never went to a place where she could see other children.

The reason why Tie Wandao came to Yugutang to choose someone was because he hoped to find someone who could concentrate on accompanying Tie Hongyan, this person must have no relatives and no reason, and he must not worry about his family or be remembered by his family.

In the line of enlistment, the orphans were babbling.

A sturdy nine-year-old boy confidently said to the little girl in front of her, "I think I'm going to be chosen!" ”

The little girl in front of him was also nine years old, and she smiled and said, "Whether you can be selected or not depends on my performance, I am taller than you, if I perform better than you, I will be selected!" Ha ha! ”

The little boy stuck out his tongue at the little girl, and the little girl grimaced at the little boy.

The little boy was not convinced, he knew that the ten-year-old girl behind him was taller than the nine-year-old girl in front of her, so he looked back, pointed to the ten-year-old girl behind him, and said to the nine-year-old girl in front of him, "If you look tall, she is taller than you!" ”
