"Old Kiba again?"

"Why are they so fast?"

Each Kiba was surprised.

The apprentice of the old wood yard obviously ran back with all his might, sweating profusely carrying a piece of wood that was not small, rushed directly to the incense line, and put it down with a bang.

Master Yang paced over, took the sweat-soaked slip from his hand, and glanced at it.

The old Kiba apprentice looked at him expectantly, and he could almost see the tail wagging behind him.

Master Yang nodded slightly, turned around and went back, adding two more words to the name of the old wooden field.

"Great!" the old Kiba apprentices all jumped to their feet and hugged each other.

Perhaps too quick to ignore the rest, the second beech apprentice who came back was not much slower than the previous one, but he brought the wrong wood.

He recognized a piece of elm wood as beech and brought it back.

Beech is the signature wood of their farm, and even if the two materials are very similar, he should not be mistaken.

When Master Yang announced the results, the smile on the apprentice's face disappeared and he looked at Master Jin at a loss. Master Jin was talking to his direct master, and the two of them frowned slightly, shook their heads together and sighed. The apprentice's face suddenly turned whiter, and he opened his mouth, a little flustered and a little aggrieved.

The remaining three apprentices of the woodyard all came back late, and when the apprentices of the mahogany yard returned, only one-fifth of the incense remained, but his wood was correct. The other two, not only came back late, but also had more or less problems with the wood, and only barely got a symbolic two points.

The difference is even more pronounced.

One figure after another shuttled through the square, and the reddish-brown cloth ribbon continued to flutter.

The apprentices of the old woodyard are always the first to come back, and they always bring the exact right piece of wood, and perfect marks are almost synonymous with them.

The rest of the apprentices, not only did they come back late, but the timber was always uneven, as if the right thing could only be done by chance.

Master Yao was still smiling at first, and occasionally said a few words to Senior Brother Zhou. As time passed, his expression became more and more serious, and finally he even stood up, walked to the edge of the stone platform, and stared downward.

On the wooden sign, the neatly arranged orthography is like a runway, and the last word is like the current running figure of each Kiba apprentice.

Now, the old Kiba apprentices are approaching ahead at a frantic pace, overtaking one by one.

They first surpassed the ashram field, which was not far away, followed by the cypress field and the mahogany field. Now, they are charging in the direction of the beech field, getting closer and closer to them!

The beech yard is not without its advantages.

Except for the apprentice who mistook elm for beech, the next few apprentices brought back the correct timber.

But compared to the old woodyard, their speed was too slow, and they almost always got stuck when the incense thread was about to burn and came back. On two occasions, the incense was almost burned, and only a little ember of sparkling sparks remained, barely getting some points.

The apprentices in the old woodyard were even more excited, and they were more motivated than before.

The moment the incense pillar was lit, it was like a starting gun sounding for them. They ran with all their might, for goals they had never thought of before.

"Double positive, great! Twenty-one points away!"

An apprentice rushed back into the group, panting like a cow. The apprentices next to him rushed up, patting him on the back desperately, praising him for a good job.

The apprentice's eyes lit up like fire, and he grinned and called out the name of the next apprentice.

"Hold on, come on!"

The two high-fived each other, and the apprentice named Chained trotted forward and began to prepare.

The atmosphere in the team was very warm, and Xu Wen looked at them, as if something was burning in his heart, and the more it burned, the more it burned.

"Thanks to you. Xu San's voice suddenly sounded.

Xu Wen turned his head.

"Many, thanks to you for taking us to carry it, it was prepared in advance. In the past, I only needed to take it, the root, and I didn't need to find it at all!" Xu San would not have stuttered as long as he spoke slowly, but at this time he was so excited that he couldn't care about avoiding his mouth at all.

“...... Hmm!" Xu Wen nodded, a strong sense of accomplishment that he had never felt before permeated his heart.

Next, the old wood yard and two more doubles entered the account, and the beech wood yard two failed to arrive in time and did not get a point.

By now, the old wood yard has been ranked second, and the gap between it and the beech wood yard is only one point. As long as Xu Wen plays normally in the end, he can catch up in one fell swoop and get the first place that the old wood yard has never won!

There were only five would-be apprentices left in each wood field, and Xu Wen stepped forward slowly and came to the incense line, next to Lu Cheng He Ping and them.

Five pallets are held in front of you, wooden pallets with lacquered edges of different colors, representing five different wood yards.

The pallet was originally filled with tags, but now there are not many left.

The white candle is tilted, and five incense sticks will be lit to start the final round of this evaluation competition.

Xu Wen was ready and was about to start, when he suddenly heard a shout from above: "Wait a minute!"

Above the stone platform, Master Yao stood up and stared at the pallets in the old wood yard.

"In this last round, you don't have to draw lots to get the wood marked on the slip of paper. He walked down and handed a piece of signed paper folded into thin strips to Xu Wen's hand.

"Do you think we're cheating?" Xu Wen asked bluntly, raising his eyebrows.

He asked too directly, and there was an uproar around him, and Master Yang shouted: "Xu asked, don't be rude!"

"Of course not. I originally wrote it one by one, but now I'm just adding another one. Master Yao said indifferently.

Write them one by one, handwriting?

Xu Wen looked at him deeply, took the note, and faced Master Yang.

Master Yang is the referee of this assessment, even if Master Yao is the chief examiner, changing the rules must be approved by him.

Master Yang was stunned for a moment, the expression on his face was instantaneous, he wanted to say something but didn't say anything, and finally nodded and said, "Yes." ”

With just one word, Xu Wen nodded, and as soon as the incense thread was ignited, he began to run wildly like the apprentice before the old wooden field!

It's been a long time since he's run like this.

The last time I ran like this was when I just graduated and just started working.

It was also a scorching summer day, and their company was going to hold an exhibition, and when it started, they found that there was an important exhibit that they had not brought with them.

As a newly hired junior brother, it is incumbent on him to become this errand runner.

The exhibition is some distance away from the company, but the surrounding area is very congested, and Xu Wen is in a hurry, so he can only run.

The traffic was busy, the scorching sun was on the head, compared to these, he remembered more clearly the anxious mood at that time.

The customer is about to arrive, the exhibits can't be delivered in time, and the business can't be negotiated, but he has to be responsible!

The exhibit was very large, and he went back to the company to get it, but he couldn't get a taxi, so he could only hold it and run all the way back.

Since then, he has developed the habit of organizing and reviewing, and has never made the mistake of missing exhibits.

Compared with the anxiety at the beginning, Xu Wen's mood is very calm now.

His ears still echoed with the laughter of the senior brothers just now, and their hearty smiling faces were reflected in his mind.

Their request was as simple as a hot meal and some meat.

They can do it exactly!

Xu Wen opened the slip as he ran.

Sure enough, Master Yao's words were nice, but he still made it more difficult on the note.

A box is drawn on the paper, marked with the symbols characteristic of a carpenter. To put it into words is -

"Boxwood, birch drawer board, eight inches long, four inches wide, eight minutes thick. ”

The so-called drawer board refers to the partition in the wooden box, which is invisible without opening the box.

A mixture of two kinds of wood, one of which is hidden inside, not opened and invisible. The eight-inch-long wooden box is not too big, and it is hidden in an old wooden pile like a hill, and it is really impossible to find it before it is replaced.

However, when he saw this note, Xu Wen believed what Master Yao said just now.

He had indeed written the notes.

The requirements for this boxwood box are so meticulous that if you want to find it, you must first have such a wooden box.

In the past two days, Xu Wen took the lead in tidying up, of course he knew that this wooden box did exist. This means that Master Yao does not know and pay attention to the old wood yard......

Xu Wen had a little bit in his heart, he clutched the note, rushed back to the old wood yard, and as soon as he stepped into the door, he saw a petite figure running out, almost colliding with him again.

"Little Senior Sister, what are you doing?" Xu Wen hurriedly stopped.

Even Lin Lin was taken aback, and then stopped, and his eyes suddenly lit up when he saw him: "Is it your turn?

She was in high spirits, and Xu Wen looked at her and laughed.

No wonder the brothers are all so fast.

Xu Wen was a little strange just now, he estimated it, and found that the time of the senior brothers was too accurate, and he felt that all the time was spent on the road, and there was no gap in finding wood.

It is said that three warehouses as large as this, even if everything is organized, it will not take any time and no time.

It turns out that this little girl is here to help......

Except for Xu Wen, she is the most familiar with these things.

Xu Wen directly handed her the note, and even Lin Lin shouted when he saw it: "Why are you so unlucky!"

But then, she laughed, and Xu Wen understood what she meant, and laughed with her.

"You're in luck, too. Lian Linlin sighed, and his feelings were diametrically opposite to before.

Under normal circumstances, this requirement is very difficult, and if it is really Xu Wen's draw, then his luck is indeed bad. But now that they have sorted out the warehouse, of course they have also carried out special sorting for such a special box.

It was placed in a special place, and there was no need to go out of way to find it, even Lin Lin and Xu Wen knew where it was.

"Drawn" this box, Xu Wen is indeed lucky!

"Please, you can help me find it. Xu Wen said with a smile.

"Okay!" Lian Lin Lin responded happily, and turned around like a bird and ran in.

Before the incense was burned, Xu Wen returned to the square.

With the wooden box in his hand, he walked over to the incense burner.

Master Lian did not sit back on the stone platform, but stood there waiting for him.

His gaze touched the wooden box in his hand, and he immediately lost his voice: "How did you find it?!"
