Three days passed in a flash. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

On this day, Jiuniang didn't go to the shop to be busy, so she got up before dawn to help Yuxiu busy in the yard.

The two of them lightly moved the table and chairs out, and Yuxiu put the big rooster, meat and tofu that had been scalded last night on the incense table, and prayed to the sky, praying that the Bodhisattva would bless Yudong with a smooth exam.

When it was dawn, Hong Tianxi and Yudong got up, and Yuxiu put breakfast on the table. This meal, you have to eat enough, after all, you have to work hard today.

In addition to the porridge, Yuxiu also deliberately burned yellow rice, and Yudong ate two bowls of soup for dinner.

Yuxiu baked a thin scallion cake last night, wrapped a roll in oil paper, and handed it to Yudong, "Brother, there are two cakes here, if you are hungry, you can take them out and eat them." ”

She specially inquired, and she was in charge of food in the examination room, but she didn't open the meal until the hour, and she could only stiffen up if she was hungry halfway.

Yudong took the cake and put it in his arms, the cake was very thin, but it was not cumbersome at all.

Compared with the literary test, the martial arts test is much more labor-saving, at least you don't have to be locked up in the number for a few days, and the martial arts test only needs three games, the first test is mounted archery, the second test is skill bravery, and the third test is the art of war.

Hong Tianxi also instructed Yudong not to be nervous on the spot, and to be sure to be steady when riding and shooting.

"Master, I remember. Yudong solemnly agreed.

Yuxiu hired a carriage and sent Yudong to the examination room with Hong Tianxi. Originally, Yudong was reluctant to let them send it, but seeing that the two of them had to go, they didn't stop it.

Yudong's horse is a jujube red horse specially selected by Hong Tianxi. He was dressed in stone blue today, riding on a jujube red horse, walking along the street, a young hero, eye-catching.

Exams are held on the campus grounds outside South Street.

In front of the school field, children from ten miles and eight towns gathered, and the empty school field in the past actually had the feeling of surging crowds when rushing to the market.

There are so many people in the martial arts test, I don't know how many people will be in the literary test.

Yuxiu sighed in her heart.

The imperial court emphasizes literature over martial arts, so Wu Xiucai, who takes the martial arts test, has only about a dozen people a year, and there are about thousands of people who come to take the exam, and I don't know if I can finish the exam on this day.

However, the examiner is not worried if he can't finish the exam, anyway, in addition to the strategy, the other two things in the martial arts test can't cheat.

Outside the school grounds, four soldiers guarded the door, and the people who saw them off stopped here.

Among these candidates, there are actually forty or fifty years old, and the younger ones are ...... Yuxiu watched it for a long time and felt that Yudong should be regarded as the youngest.

After all, the martial arts test is strength and bravery, and if you are not old, you will suffer a loss.

"Master, Xiuxiu, you go back, I'm in. Yudong dismounted and led the horse into the field, turning his head to say goodbye to Hong Tianxi and Yuxiu.

Yuxiu beckoned and agreed, but people couldn't move, looking at the people around them to see them off, they might all be planning to wait here.

Hong Tianxi found an open place outside the field, "Xiuxiu, let's wait here." ”

After Yudong entered the field, there was a messenger who led them to the school grounds, where there were three examiners, one was Wuzhi County, one was the county Xuezheng, and one was dressed as a military general, so he should be the military attache of the county.

Wuzhi County said the rules of the three competitions as usual, etc., and then let everyone draw numbers to compete.

Yudong actually drew a number of three hundred and eighty-six, and among thousands of people, he drew a relatively high number.

The candidates waiting for the exam followed the errand to the side of the school, Yudong stood in the back position, listening to the cheers or regrets coming from the front, guessing that the cheers should be familiar candidates cheering each other on, and the regretful voices may be that the candidates have failed in the exam.

Finally, it was his turn to shoot a game.

He walked into the middle of the field, and the jujube red horse flicked his tail and stepped on the side, looking eager to try.

A soldier sent a bow and arrow, Yudong weighed it for a moment and chose a bow and arrow that was more convenient.

Wuzhi County knew Yan Yudong, and when he picked up his bow and arrows and prepared to get on the horse, he reminded, "Riding and archery, three out of ten arrows can pass the test, otherwise you won't be able to get the next one." ”

Yudong smiled gratefully at Wu Zhixian's mention, picked up the bow and flew on the horse.

The other candidates were surprised to see that a teenager actually chose the heaviest bow, and felt that Yudong was a little in a hurry.

After Yudong rode on the horse, a soldier sent a quiver, which contained a total of ten carved arrows, and only three out of ten arrows could pass the level.

"Jujube Red Horse, look at us. He patted the horse's head, whispered, and clamped his legs, urging the horse to run.

There was an arrow target a hundred paces away from the school field, Yudong first rode around the field, bent down or sideways on horseback, and when the horse ran to the field, he bent his bow and shot the first arrow at the first arrow target.

Subsequently, the second arrow, the third arrow...... Ten arrows flew by in a flash.

"Ten arrows, nine arrows hit the bull's-eye!"

The soldiers guarding the target reported loudly.

The candidates let out an exclamation.

Because of their different family backgrounds, some of these candidates have not even been able to touch the horse, and it is good to ride on the horse without falling off. Three arrows out of ten arrows are considered to have passed, which is to take into account the situation of these poor candidates.

Among the thirty-seven people in front, there were even those who missed the target.

Yudong Pegasus archery, and nine out of ten arrows, can be regarded as the first person in this field, Wuzhi County and the other two examiners took a look at it and made a note each.

When Yudong dismounted on the sidelines and returned the bow and arrows, even the soldiers who carried the bow couldn't help but praise a good example.

With this bottom, Yudong's heart is a lot more stable.

With Yudong in front, the rest of the candidates are lackluster, and the other best results are only four arrows out of ten, and those who miss the target abound.

Yuxiu's worries that she couldn't finish the exam in one day won't happen at all, because hundreds of people will be eliminated in one game of riding and shooting.

Sure enough, in the second game, there were nearly half fewer people on the school field.

Skill and courage are mainly used to test arm strength, and there are three kinds of bow drawing, dancing knife and stone cutting.

The bows that draw the bow are eight forces, ten forces and twelve forces, and candidates can choose according to their own strength. No matter which one you choose, you only need to open it three times to pass the level.

The knife of the dancing knife is a Guan Gong broadsword, the handle is forged from fine iron, and the three broadswords are eighty catties, one hundred catties and one hundred and twenty catties respectively. Candidates who wield a big knife must dance the knife flower on the front chest and back to pass the test.

There are a total of 200 catties, 250 catties and 300 catties of three weights, if the stone is lifted less than one foot from the ground to be eliminated, the upper knee or upper chest is acceptable.

Although Yudong is young, his arm strength is good, otherwise it would be impossible to hold the startled horse with his bare hands when he was in Mingzhou.

Therefore, when it was his turn to play, he weighed it for a moment, and directly picked up the twelve-force bow, and bowed three times in a row like a full moon.

With such strength at such a young age, the other candidates couldn't help but applaud.

Yudong put down the big bow, and his palms were sweaty. However, one skill must be completed in three tests.

He wiped his hand on the placket of his clothes, walked to the big knife, and picked up a hundred catties of big knife, which was specially pointed out by Hong Tianxi.

"The strength is inexhaustible, and if you don't succeed in powerlessness, you will suffer when you dig a stone. ”
