The group stepped forward a few paces, and the Game Children came rushing over in a clatter, clapping their hands and singing in unison.
"Point and point, point Peach; point right and Peach fills your belly. Point and point, point Peach; point right and Peach brings you gold..."
A child with a red-cord topknot sticking straight into the sky walked smilingly before them and said, "Shall we play a game together?"
Everyone lined up in a row, silent.
Only Li Qingxian smiled as if he had truly met some children. "Sure."
The Peach-Pointing Child beamed at Li Qingxian, then clapped and sang a nursery rhyme. When he finished, he said, "Let's point to our right ears together." Yet his right hand pointed at his own left eye.
Before he spoke, the White-Light Child emerged from the Fate Disk.
In everyone's eyes, a line of words appeared before the White-Light Child: "I am pointing to my left eye." At the same time, the White-Light Child pointed at his reddened right ear.
Everyone ignored the Peach-Pointing Child and followed the White-Light Child's words and movements.
The Peach-Pointing Child said excitedly, "Wow, you all got it right! Then let's make it harder. Let's point to our chins, let's point to our hair, let's point to our left shoulders." At the same time, he pointed respectively at his right eye, left ear, and the space between his brows.
Everyone's hearts tightened, and they silently rejoiced. Thankfully, they had followed Li Qingxian's instructions and practiced beforehand. Thankfully, the White-Light Child was there. Had they been unprepared, they would certainly have pointed wrong this time. Who could have imagined that the second round would jump straight to three consecutive points?
Everyone followed the White-Light Child and completed it perfectly.
The Peach-Pointing Child kept playing the game.
