Chapter 109: Together
The daylight is bright, the people in the Huangsha Dao forbidden military camp are boiling, the Qintan Gongzhi army is strict, since the first emperor's accident, the imperial city forbidden army is controlled by him, and the people stationed in Huangsha Dao are selected from the army, and it is the first time that such a noisy and disorderly army.
"Don't make a noise, everybody. ”
"Don't wander around, barracks are heavy. ”
"The archery department is in the school field, and the royal department is in the horse farm. ”
The scribe who maintained order shouted loudly and instructed the candidates to walk.
In the autumn barracks, the grass is not yellow, the field of vision is wide, and the candidates of all ages look around curiously, and many people come with bows and arrows on their backs, but they are stopped when they enter the door.
"The examination room is uniformly equipped with bows and arrows, and it is forbidden to bring them privately for fairness. ”
There was a lot of noise and complaining, but under the tough rules of disqualification for violating the rules, the candidates obediently put down the bows and arrows they had prepared.
"Young Master Qingzi, Young Master Qingzi. ”
Xue Qing, who was walking among the candidates in Chang'an Mansion, turned around when he heard the shout, and saw two middle-aged men coming over, who were the same two people who had followed Da Huangya to see the old things in Huangsha Road before.
Although there is no daily contact, I always feel different feelings when I travel together, and I am inexplicably more cordial.
Zhang Shuangtong also greeted them with a smile.
"We shot Yu Pingping, just to see that Young Master Qingzi is slightly better. They laughed, "It's a pity that the highest score for shooting is only a perfect score." ”
However, it was a pity to see Xue Qing's hands.
"We also heard that it's a pity that Young Master Qingzi is injured, but I hope it won't affect the exam. ”
Xue Qing thanked and smiled: "It doesn't matter, it's okay." ”
"Sure enough, I was confident. The two laughed.
As he was talking, there was a commotion ahead, and when he looked up, he saw a group of white-robed teenagers standing out among the green shirts.
"What are these Xiliang people doing?" Zhang Shuangtong said.
Soon there was news that the people of Xiliang wanted to shoot the imperial department together, according to the setting, the archery department and the imperial department were separated, although the candidates either would have been able to ride a horse and archery, or a temporary assault before the exam, standing archery, riding a horse and separating more or less can be decent, but riding archery is not a month or two can be practiced......
"The people of Xiliang said that it was their humiliation to stand up and shoot arrows and ride horses empty-handed. Pang An ran back and pouted.
Zhang Shuangtong snorted and patted Xue Qing: "Sansanlang, this can't be endured." ”
Xue Qing smiled and asked Pang An, "Did the examiner agree?"
Zhang Shuangtong sneered: "Then it doesn't need to be said, the examiner will agree to whatever the Xiliang people say." ”
Pang An also smiled and nodded: "The examiner said that it is okay, the shooting of the imperial subject is to let everyone choose freely, you can participate in both, you can not participate, of course, you can also take the exam together." ”
Xue Qing said: "It's fair, then I'll report it too." ”
.....
.....
The school field is noisy and chaotic, and the school field is divided into left and right sides next to the fence.
A hundred big black horses in the racecourse were waiting with their number plates, and no matter how their bows and arrows flew around, and they were not frightened in the slightest, not even digging their hooves, only occasionally shaking their tails.
It looks so docile, but the first candidate of the imperial department who came over is still inexplicably nervous, maybe because they are tall, maybe they are dark all over, or maybe they are animals with disdain..... The horses are all divided according to the number plate, as for whether it is suitable or not, it depends on luck, and luck is also a kind of examination in a certain aspect.
With the opening of the Imperial Branch, the noise immediately surpassed the shooting department over there.
With a buzz, one of the examinees released the bowstring, and everyone hurriedly looked forward, and there was no laughter above the grass target, and there was a burst of laughter outside the railing.
"At your feet, under your feet. ”
"Boy, can't you see clearly?"
With the sound of coaxing, the candidate hurriedly lowered his head, squinted his eyes and looked hard.... It turned out to be a bad eye.
Zhang Shuangtong shook his sleeve and sneered: "What do you shoot if you have bad eyes!"
Pang An also laughed: "It's just pulling a bow and shooting an arrow, maybe you can hit the target, and one point is one point." "So these last two subjects are also fully participated, young and old.
Here they were laughing, and there was the neighing of horses, and the shouts of wah-wah, everyone hurriedly followed the sound, and saw that in the horse farm not far away, several horses jumped high and lifted off the candidates on their backs.
Fortunately, there were forbidden soldiers next to them to take care of the horses in time, so that they would not be trampled by the horses' hooves again, and the candidates who were thrown down were helped off the field with a pale face..... Not to mention that the imperial department has no points, after being frightened, the shooting department is only afraid that it will be over, and the candidates around him are pale and frightened.
"This horse can't do it. ”
"It's too dangerous. ”
Suddenly there was a whining.
The scribes were also busy wiping their sweat and running to the examiner, and the examiners of the archery department were served by the generals in the forbidden army.
"My lord, these military horses are too strong, let's change some docile ones. The scribes said.
The generals said indifferently: "This is already the most docile horse selected, and this is Huangsha Road." ”
Yes, this is Huangsha Road, the soldiers and horses are all of the best, the scribes looked at the black faces of the generals, these generals have all been on the battlefield and killed people, and those so-called most docile horses are afraid that they have also galloped on the battlefield, and how much flesh and blood have been stepped on under the horses' hooves.
"If you really can't do it, go to the government or the people to collect horses. The other general said with a better attitude.
How did it come in time, there are not so many, there is no way, it can only be like this, the scribes have to go back, and the candidates heard that there is no hope of changing horses, so they have to pray that they are lucky, and the horses they meet are in a better mood.
No one looked at the archery department, and they all flocked to the imperial department, shouting and screaming as the horses in the field churned, and the candidates screamed...... It's so exciting.
"It's horrible. Pang An said with a pale face.
"It's fine. Guo Zi'an said, "Those horses are also veteran oilers, and they will also bully the weak and fear the hard, so it's good if you are bolder." ”
Zhang Shuangtong looked at his shirt and was a little worried: "I deliberately wore a red dress, I just thought I would look handsome and good-looking, but if I fell down, it would be very eye-catching." ”
Liu Chunyang said: "There are also docile horses." He raised his chin and nodded, and there was always one candidate in the field who met a horse and ran quietly, "It depends on your luck." Looking at Zhang Shuangtong and shaking his head, "But your luck has never been good." ”
Speaking of which, because Xue Qing and everyone are standing together at this time, but Changle Club and Wuling Club are also years of grievances.
Zhang Shuangtong snorted at him.
Pang An greeted twice: "Look, the people of Xiliang have entered." ”
The crowd saw twelve Xiliang teenagers entering, and in this one the others retreated, and the railings blocking the school and horse fields were removed..... The Xiliang candidates were going to shoot with the imperial horse, and the candidates around them did not surround them, nor did they have any curiosity.
"Needless to say... It's going to be fine..."
"It's a perfect score again... Xiliang people... It's not that you can be born to ride a horse, and if you can't speak, you can shoot arrows..."
The examinees looked at the field with complicated expressions, and their attitudes were restrained, unlike the wanton laughter when they lost to other examinees before, which is probably the difference between themselves and outsiders.
But the horses did not distinguish between outsiders and insiders, they were all human beings, and the neighing of horses sounded in the stable, barking and kicking.
Zhang Shuangtong patted the railing and said with a smile: "It seems that the people of Xiliang are unlucky! Twelve people have chosen the fierce horse..."
Everyone looked at the field and saw that the Xiliang teenagers who were leading the horses according to the number plate took the reins, and the military horses had already begun to churn, jumping and barking, almost unable to get close, and the horses were eager to try to aim the horses' hooves at the Xiliang candidates beside them..... It's terrifying.
A military general standing next to him snorted and said, "Of course people are different, Xiliang people... Horses are also well distinguished. ”
For people in the army, they don't have a good impression of Xiliang people, how many battles were fought on the battlefield back then.... Although the armistice is good now, where can we slap the past in the past, and we can't give the Xiliang people a bad face, and it's not an exaggeration to see them make a fool of themselves, right? Whoever let them take the exam can't complain about others.
The generals on the sidelines laughed a little, and after a while, they held back and signaled to the soldiers standing that they could stop the horses.... If you are a student of Da Zhou, you will step forward to stop it at the beginning, this is a little cunning to use power, it is harmless.
The soldiers on the side were ordered to run to the field, but as soon as they took a step, they heard the neighing of the horses in the field and suddenly rose up, accompanied by the low roar of people, only did they see that those Xiliang teenagers not only did not retreat, but some of them rode on horses, some hugged the neck of the horse, and their bodies were pressed down and yelled.... With a bang, several military horses were overturned to the ground, the dust was flying, the horses neighed, and the candidates outside the field opened their mouths in shock....
Live, horse taming, is it?
The horses that fell to the ground were churning, there was no crazy jump on the ground, but the Xiliang boy on horseback was not taken off the horse, I don't know what tricks he played, the horses neighed miserably, and they spun wildly in the field.....
All the noise is gone, and all the only sounds in everyone's ears are the sound of horses, the dust is flying, the horses are churning, and the young men in white are no longer beautiful flowers and butterflies, like the most ferocious butchers in the world.....
It seems that after a long time, it seems to be just a blink of an eye, the dust disperses, the horses disperse, the horses stand in the field, quiet and standing, no longer as before, well-behaved and supple to the approaching Xiliang teenagers and wagged their tails in flattery....
The tail seemed to be whipped on the faces of the generals on the sidelines, their black faces turned red, and the hands hanging down at their sides crumbled, humiliating, and the military horses were tamed by the Xiliang people on the spot.
At this moment, it was as if it was not the horses that were crushed to the ground, but themselves.....
