If I understand your question correctly...

To select a character from the line of 10 characters that displays on the
bottom of the screen, select the number of the character
(1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,0). Of course, this only gives you a choice of 10
characters, so to see the next 10 characters, use C-n (ctrl-n for "next"),
or to go back to the previous line, C-p (ctrl-p for "previous").

I don't know which input method you are using. I use chinese-py-b5 (Chinese
Pinyin Big5), but I think the system mentioned above works for most of the
input methods.
