Chapter 282: Emperor's Little Confused Wife (9)
Ran Jia worked hard to tighten her little face with her hands behind her back, walked past the little baby one by one, and said in a cold voice: "You report your name and family history one by one, what will happen." ”
The little babies started from the very edge very obediently and replied in a milky voice.
Ran Jia sat back under the eaves and sat comfortably on the official hat chair, next to the Jian Hall, where she was also sitting, and there was a small table between the two of them, on which refreshments and fruits were placed.
The little mink sat on the edge of the table with a grape in her arms, dangling her little short legs, and also shook her head and looked at a group of cute babies.
"Apprentice, where did you find so many talented little radish?" Ran Jia paid attention to the talking baby, and at the same time inspected the other babies, not forgetting to satisfy her curiosity and ask questions to Jian Hall.
If she was allowed to look for it by herself, she wouldn't be able to make up so much in a year and a half, and she obviously felt that they had been carefully selected by the Jian Hall, and he had done it so properly in one day? How did this fairy do it?
"I just wrote a questionnaire and had it copied and distributed it to all the children of this age in Kyoto, but only if the answers to the questionnaire were more than 80% within the range I marked were I was able to enter the palace. I'll take your hands on it for you again, and then there will be these children who barely meet Master's qualifications. Jian Hall had actually started to prepare for this when he knew Ran Jia's plans, rather than letting her find a child who was very suitable for her and had stronger feelings than him, it was better for him to take the initiative and send it to her in batches, and it would not be rare to have more children.
Ran Jia raised her eyebrows, even more curious, "What questionnaire?" ”
Jian Hall waved his hand behind him, and someone immediately handed Zhang Yizhang a long piece of paper with dense characters written on it.
Ran Jia took it and looked at it one by one, each of these questions was not difficult, and it was impossible for people to guess the mind of the questioner. Even adults can't help children with insurance. And these questions do not have fixed answers, but they can be intertwined with other questions to give them some useful information.
Some gifted people do have traces to follow, and they can become an excellent ghost hunter with high spells, and they also have a destiny destined by God, and only those who are unswerving can have great achievements, and they can carry forward that spell and benefit the common people.
Jian Hall is really not an ordinary person, although he has a talent in spells for some reason, but his head is absolutely easy to use, and he can be called a military advisor-level figure.
The more she looked at it, the more satisfied she became, and she directly put it into her own bag, and said with a smile: "Good apprentice, in the future, this will be listed as the assessment standard for our apprentices, which saves trouble, effort and efficiency!" ”
"Master, you requisitioned it for free?" Jian Hall peeled a small dish of crystal clear and fragrant lychees for Ran Jia, lowered her eyelids and looked at her plain white hand and pinched a pink lip flap, the Adam's apple couldn't help rolling, and there was an unbearable dry mouth in an instant, and she couldn't wait to turn into that lychee and be swallowed by her, so that she could completely belong to him.
Heh, lately, he has become more and more unable to control his almost pathological intimacy and dependence on Master, and he can't imagine what he will become if Master leaves one day.
Probably, he will let the whole world be buried with him, right?
The children are all excellent, Ran Jia is reluctant to do any of them, but she knows that she and Jian Hall's energy is limited, and it is better to leave three or five children according to her original plan, and carefully cultivate them.
She reached out and pointed out the twenty or so children in her photograph to get them one step closer, and then pulled out the net she had made from the feathers of a bird on the top of the snowy mountain, which was said to be the closest to heaven and could bring people's inner hopes to the gods, and thus be fulfilled.
However, this bird does have a very magical power, and Ran Jia spent a lot of effort to collect eight feathers and make a lot of small objects. She added many stories to this wishing net, and it can be said that all the people who are cast are like entering a whole world, where they will express their truest thoughts without any constraints.
It is said that when you are three years old and see you old, many temptation factors have been added to the wish trapping net to see if the subject of the spell can resist the temptation and have always adhered to the original intention.
The person who can pass is the purest in his heart, suitable for becoming a ghost hunter, and can get twice the result with half the effort when practicing spells. And the other children who failed to meet her requirements will also have a deep understanding because of the opportunity of one more life, and they will have higher achievements than ordinary people in this life.
More than 20 children were shrouded in a net, and their expressions were dazed for a moment, and then their faces were full of expressions, and their mouths were silent but silent.
At the same time, Ran Jia took their reactions into account at the moment, sketched on the paper, and finally chose five children, four boys and one girl, three of them were from powerful families, one was from a rich family, and one turned out to be a little beggar!
The children who were not selected were a little disappointed, and they drooped their little shoulders and left with the servants, seeing that Ran Jia couldn't bear it, but being a ghost hunter is not an easy task. Since she plans to accept apprentices, she has an attitude of being responsible to the end, and she really can't take care of too many people.
In addition, after the completion of the ghost hunter's training, they will have to face demons and monsters that are either white or black, and countless dangers are waiting, and one careless person may lose his life.
Ran Jia lowered her eyelids slightly and silently recited the heart purification mantra a few times, getting rid of the sudden cluster of greed, she took a deep breath, and her eyes returned to their previous clear and bright appearance.
The faces of the five little guys could not hide their excitement, although they had passed through the world of the Wishing Net, but it was just talk on paper, and it was not as cruel and profound as reality.
"You have thought about it, once you worship me as a teacher, then you must take it as your responsibility to stabilize the mortal world for the rest of your life, and you must not give up halfway. This will be your lifelong perseverance and struggle, although you are still young, but I only give you this chance to choose.
I can tell you that few ghost hunters survive to the end of their lives, we are human warriors, and dying on the battlefield will be our destiny.
If you leave now, you can live an ordinary and happy life, otherwise you will have to face a life that is completely different from the past, with thrills, joys and sorrows.
Have you figured it out? ”
She whispered word by word, putting the reality in front of them as much as possible, and she would not rely on the children's young age to not know what the choice represents at the moment because they are talented, and forcibly determine their future.
Maybe when they grow up and understand the true meaning of the ghost hunter, they will have a grudge against her and deny their own life, which will further exacerbate their death.
Several children looked at each other, and their innocent eyes were more mature and persistent than when they first walked into the yard.
"Master is above, please accept the apprentice Guo Zhan's worship!"
The one who spoke was the eldest of them, the six-year-old son of Guo Houfu. His elder brother is the eldest son, and he is going to inherit the Hou Mansion in the future, and he doesn't want a step-by-step life, trapped in Kyoto to live a drunken life. He wants to be like an eagle soaring in the sky, able to soar into the sky and low down to the sea.
"Master is above, please accept the apprentice Wu Su's worship!"
This is the five-year-old concubine of General Wu's Mansion, and his mother is a talented daughter, who is very difficult to protect him in the General's Mansion. He is destined not to be too good, otherwise he will become a pitiful little pity for the women of the back house who practice their hands and are sacrificed. But he can't pretend to be cowardly and timid, and if he pretends for too long, he will definitely forget that he is not inferior to others at all. Only if he can avoid his mother and become stronger, can he protect his mother's health for the rest of his life!
"Master is above, please be worshiped by the apprentice Pei Yixian!"
The boy, dressed in red and beautiful like a fire fox, fell to his knees and said respectfully, loudly and firmly. His father died of illness two years ago, and his mother took him to join the family of Zoyue and became Shangshu's uncle. It was very difficult to live under the roof of others, not only because of the shortage of money, but also because he did not have a father to protect him, and he did not have a bright family background.
He wants to be strong and not continue to be slighted and trampled on.
"Master is above, please accept the apprentice Gong Fanya's worship!"
The pink girl is very delicate, and the fleshy little face is very cute. Her family is the first imperial merchant in the Xia Kingdom, the family is rich, her father's beautiful wife and concubine in one room are carried home, and one by one the brothers and younger brothers pop out of the aunt's belly, and they are calculating. Among the dozens of boys, she is the only one who is her father's little padded jacket, and she is naturally pampered by pain.
But because she grew up with her brother and brother since she was a child, although she was only four years old, she didn't want to be confined to the boudoir and wait to marry her husband and children.
"Master is above, please be worshiped by the apprentice Shao Shuxin!"
He was a little beggar, the name was tattooed in his thigh, and his mother died last year, leaving him and his sister to beg on the streets. Although it was only a short year, he tasted the hardships of life, hungry and full, hot in summer and cold in winter.
He is too young, too small to protect their brother and sister, so he can only breathe under the calculations of others, if he can't get rid of it as soon as possible, when he is older, he will be forced to steal, and his sister may be sold into the flower building.
Ran Jia squinted her eyes slightly, she could clearly hear their hearts, this was because the effect of the wishing net had not been eliminated. Not only is she a little concerned in her heart, the ghost hunter's profession is always alone, a ghost hunter with a good talent seems to be mostly accompanied by a not very good personality, it seems that only in this way can they unswervingly choose this path, and start from the beginning without distraction.
"Okay, since you should go down, then you are not allowed to shout bitterly and be tired in the future, and entering the ghost hunter is to hold an important ceremony, swear by your soul, and there is no way back!"
