After sitting and watching TV with Xiaoman for several hours, Xiaoman became more and more immersed in watching TV. He squatted down next to Yin Xiu and stared at the TV without blinking.

Feeling a little bored, Yin Xiu stood up and said to Xiaoman: "Xiaoman, I'm going out for a walk. Are you going out with me, or are you watching TV at home?"

Xiaoman raised his head and looked up, yelled "Gahji" at Yin Xiu, and then immediately turned his attention to the TV again...

Well, it goes without saying that I understand that little thing’s choice.

Yin Xiu smiled bitterly. Unexpectedly, this little thing became obsessed with watching TV.

Forget it, just leave it at home and watch TV. Anyway, you don’t have to worry about your little thing getting lost.

"Then you stay at home and watch TV, and don't run around, okay?"

"Gahji!"

This time the little thing was more straightforward. He didn't even raise his head and just shouted in response to Yin Xiu.

Shaking his head helplessly, Yin Xiu took out a few spiritual fruits from the storage ring, placed them on the coffee table for Xiaoman, and then went out.

After wandering around randomly, Yin Xiu finally walked to the gate of Yinhai University.

It was now around four o'clock in the afternoon, and there were quite a few students coming in and out. Yin Xiu was dressed casually and looked to be in his twenties, so he was not much different from those students.

Many students who are still studying look even older than him...

Entering Yinhai University again, the school is much more lively now than it was in the early morning. The pedestrians on the road and the students playing ball on the court are nothing compared to that early in the morning.

The entire campus showed a lively and noisy atmosphere. Especially those students playing on the court show their youthful vitality.

Yin Xiu, who was walking aimlessly, was also attracted and unconsciously walked towards the basketball court.

There are several courts lined up side by side, and there are several students playing basketball in almost every court.

Basketball was not something that existed in China before Yin Xiu left the earth. Although I learned about such a sport from his memory after using the soul-searching technique on that person, this was still the first time I had watched it seriously.

Yin Xiu is not unfamiliar with some basic rules of basketball.

After all, even if you don't pay much attention to basketball in China, you still know some of the most basic rules of basketball, and the man who was used by Yin Xiu to search for souls naturally knows it too.

After standing on the sidelines and watching for a while, Yin Xiu had a clearer understanding of the sport. Perhaps it was because he had never played with it before, or even seen it before, so after looking at it for a while, Yin Xiu found it quite interesting.

Just at this time, several boys in the field in front of Yin Xiu suddenly shouted to Yin Xiu: "Hey, that classmate, we are just short of one person who can defeat the whole field. Why don't we come down and play together?"

"Did you call me?"

Yin Xiu looked at those people a little surprised.

"That's right. You're quite tall, so your football skills are pretty good, right?" The person who spoke was a boy about 1.75 meters tall.

Yin Xiu's height of about 1.85 meters is indeed quite tall among ordinary people.

Probably the other party also took a fancy to his height, so he wanted to ask him to play together.

Yin Xiu pursed his lips and smiled. It was okay. It was not bad to stand aside and watch and play. The key is that Yin Xiu thinks it's interesting. Since the other party asked him to go play together, he can just play.

There’s no need to take it seriously anyway, just treat it as a pastime.

Of course, if Yin Xiu was serious, he wouldn't be able to play. After all, with his strength, if he was even a little serious, no one else could even touch the ball.

"OK."

Yin Xiu walked away with a smile.

Seeing Yin Xiu's promise, the boy who just spoke immediately said: "Okay, there are just enough ten people now. Let's divide the sides. If there are no sides, five people, fight the whole audience..."

"good!"

Several other people responded one after another.

Then everyone formed a circle and stretched out one foot. Yin Xiu looked at him. Although he didn't quite understand what it was for, he still followed suit and stretched out a foot.

At this time, the boy holding the basketball lightly smashed the basketball down in the circle surrounded by everyone. Soon the basketball bounced a few times and hit several people's feet...

"Okay, you guys are on one side, and the rest of us are on the other side..."

Immediately, the people who were hit on their feet withdrew one after another and automatically divided into two sides. The other few people whose feet were not hit automatically formed the other side.

Yin Xiu was assigned to the same side as the boy who just talked to him. Also in the same group were two little guys who were just over 1.6 meters tall, and another boy who was only just over 1.7 meters tall and quite short. .

The tallest among the five is Yin Xiu.

In comparison, the overall height of the other group is obviously higher than this one.

Among the five people on the other side, except for one who is also over 1.6 meters tall, two are around 1.73 meters tall, and one is over 1.8 meters tall, slightly shorter than Yin Xiu.

However, the height of the last one is over 1.9 meters, which is a bit taller than Yin Xiu.

There is not much emphasis on dividing the sides on the field. Since it is done by smashing the ball, no one can say whether it is fair or not. In golf, height does not necessarily mean you will win.

What's more, everyone plays ball on the field to have fun. As for winning or losing, they don't really care.

"Okay, let's get started!"

The big man opposite, who was about 1.9 meters tall, said.

After several people on Yin Xiu's side responded, the short and stocky boy said to Yin Xiu: "Brother, is it okay for you to play center later? I will play with you on the inside, and the three of them will play on the outside..."

There are not many details on the field, but some simple position assignments still have some effect.

Although the short and stocky boy is only the third tallest in the team, his physique is obviously stronger than that of the other boy who is 1.75 meters tall. With his physique, it is easier to fight off the opponent's players when paired with Yin Xiu in the paint.

Yin Xiu naturally has no objection to this distribution.

"OK, no problem!"

Seeing that Yin Xiu had no objection, several people started serving.

Because Yin Xiu's overall height was obviously shorter, the opponent also tacitly gave the ball to Yin Xiu's side for the first attack.

Yin Xiu had been watching from the sidelines for a while, and with the knowledge of basketball in the memory of the man whose soul he was searching, Yin Xiu immediately ran towards his own attacking basket after serving.

It just so happens that he is playing the center position and does not need to dribble himself. In addition, those people have never played with Yin Xiu and do not know how strong Yin Xiu is, so of course they will not let Yin Xiu go.

When the opponent's 1.9-meter center saw Yin Xiu rushing to the basket, he immediately pressed close to him, blocking Yin Xiu's position and preventing him from easily catching the ball.

Yin Xiu was just having fun, so naturally he wouldn't really exert himself. So after a few symbolic confrontations with the opponent, he quickly pulled away.

The opponent's center didn't know how Yin Xiu's long shot was going, so naturally he could only follow up and defend, giving up space under the basket.

In this way, the breakthrough space for Yin Xiu's outsiders will naturally be much larger.

Sure enough, after two 1.6-meter-six little men on Yin Xiu's side broke through and scored the ball twice in a row, the opponent's entire defense was completely messed up.

In the end, the stocky boy who cut through the basket caught the small ball and easily made a layup under the basket, scoring the first point...
