Chapter 208
Everyone's eyes were watching what Wu Xunsheng would do next.
Will he continue to carry the iron? Judging from his current condition, it seems that even if he carries it until he is exhausted, he may not be able to carry the iron to the other side.
Or, will he just leave and eliminate the possibility of being selected?
Some people couldn't help but wonder what choice he would make.
After the last round of tests, some people thought that he would not give up easily, but now that the situation was like this, what could he do? If objective reality really did not allow a person to persist, what would happen even if he had unlimited perseverance? Perhaps, it was because he persisted to the end in the last round of tests, used up too much physical strength, and it was difficult to recover for a while, which increased the difficulty for him to persist in this round of tests. However, if he did not run to the finish line in the last round of tests, he would have lost the chance to be selected long ago, and he would not need to appear on the track in this round.
At this moment, Wu Xunsheng made a move that was beyond everyone's expectations - he suddenly ran to one side of the large open space, picked up a long carpet, and got back to the runway as quickly as possible.
Why would he behave so abnormally?
What is he going to do?
Some people on the field stared at Wu Xunsheng in surprise.
Wu Xunsheng placed the long carpet in front of the iron block, lifted the iron block off the ground for a distance, moved it forward, and then let the iron block sit on the long carpet. Then, he walked to the end of the long carpet that was closer to the end, grabbed the two corners of the long carpet with both hands, and pulled with all his strength, and the long carpet moved forward with the iron block for a distance.
Because there is a long strip of carpet in the middle, the iron block is no longer in direct contact with the ground. Therefore, even if all six of its sides are not flat, it will not be stuck on the ground.
After every few pulls, Wu Xunsheng would stop and take a deep breath before continuing. After pulling for a distance, he saw that the iron block was about to slide out of the long carpet, so he rearranged the position of the iron block in the long carpet and continued pulling.
Although his speed was slow, at least he was transporting the iron block forward and did not stop.
Since there was no rule in advance that iron blocks could not be transported with the help of long carpets, no one could say that he had violated the test rules. All participating children were not allowed to bring tools when they came to the open field, and there were no tools specifically provided for transporting iron blocks on the open field, so Wu Xunsheng's use of long carpets to transport iron blocks was completely unexpected. Moreover, only Wu Xunsheng could do this, because for other children, they could just pick up the iron blocks and transport them to the other side. If other children also used long carpets to transport them like Wu Xunsheng, it would greatly slow down their transportation speed.
Wu Xunsheng was panting and sweating profusely as he pulled the iron block with a long strip of carpet.
At this time, he heard some children over there burst into unbridled laughter.
It turned out that it was the nine-year-old boy who called Wu Xunsheng "Stupid Donkey" who said this: "Calling him 'Stupid Donkey' is so appropriate! You can tell he is a 'Stupid Donkey' just by looking at his movements! Isn't this how a stupid donkey pulls things? Why can't some donkeys pull things very far even after a long time? Because they are 'stupid'!"
