Chapter 35 Subject 1 Examination

The long-overdue county exam began in a long time ago. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info is still a complicated opening declaration, the ancestors are sacrificed, and the martyrs are sacrificed. After a time-consuming opening, the first exam officially began.

The square moved in response to the sound, as the largest gladiatorial arena in Qingyun County, this square spent a lot of money to invite several major schools to work together to build. So when it was announced that it had entered the preparation stage for the exam, the sound of gears buzzed, and at both ends of the empty square, two flat high platforms were raised. In front of the two small high platforms, there is a barrier composed of a huge strip of cloth, on which are written the words "right" and "wrong".

An examiner used amplification to explain the rules of the first exam: "Attention candidates, the first exam is the essay exam, and then I will read out a true/false question, and you have to make a decision in an hourglass time and pass through the barrier." When the gong and drum are beaten, those who do not appear on the high platform are counted as a game, and then the high platform will mark the loser, and those who are stained with the mark are considered out. “

In other words, candidates have to judge whether the question is right or wrong within the specified time, choose an answer, and finally look at the reaction of the platform. The exam focuses on both knowledge and ability. Lack of knowledge to judge whether it is correct or not; If you don't have enough skills, you won't be able to complete it within the stipulated time.

"There's not enough time left for us!"

"Yes, it's only time for an hourglass, and if you don't do your best, you won't have time to climb the high platform."

"No matter how many there are, at the beginning there are more people on whichever side you run."

"Yes, run to the middle first, and decide which platform to drill into at the last minute."

"That's all there is to it."

……

"Listen up!" The examiner opens a scroll. "Whoever fights, with the right combination, with the odd victory. Therefore, those who are good and surprising are as infinite as heaven and earth, and inexhaustible as rivers and seas. And so on

, the sun and the moon are also. Death and resurrection, four o'clock is also. The sound is not more than five, and the change of five voices is not better than listening; The color is not five, and the change of the five colors is invincible; The taste is not five, and the change of the five flavors cannot be tasted; The battle situation is not strange, and the change of Qizheng is invincible. Strange and positive are born together, such as the gratuitous cycle, who can be poor......"

A lengthy passage of classical Chinese was read aloud, and at first the candidates were able to judge whether it was right or wrong from memory. But as time goes by, everyone becomes more and more unsure, and if they lose their mind, they dare not guarantee whether they have missed a word, misheard a word, or a word. The difference between one word and willingness may be very different, but the examiner has no intention of stopping.

As the reading continues, the examinees' hearts are almost broken with anxiety, and it is estimated that half of the examinees present have decided to give up their judgment. Instead of tensing your nerves, it's better to try your luck, to say the least, there is a fifty percent chance of being right, and there will always be talented people among the people, and it's right to follow them.

After listening to the first two sentences, Chen Wusheng immediately found that he was extremely familiar with this article.

[Hey, this sounds familiar...... Come to think of it, isn't this the article that Sun Wu and I jointly summarized back then? I didn't expect it to become a masterpiece thousands of years later, and it was in vain that I spent a lot of effort with him back then. 】

In today's world, Chen Wusheng does not believe that there are few people who are more familiar with this set of art of war than himself, listening to the descendants talk about his past, Chen Wusheng feels very cordial, and unconsciously, recalls the past.

[Well, although a few words have been replaced, it does not hinder the general meaning, but there are many controversial words in it, and it is impossible for ordinary people to judge right or wrong in a short period of time. The first exam shouldn't be so difficult, and the rest of the explanation is that the examiners have other plans. 】

After thinking about it, Chen Wusheng no longer bothered, he already had the answer in his heart. This change in him was seen by Wen Zimo, and he inadvertently noticed Chen Wusheng's calm appearance, and Wen Zimo had doubts in his heart.

[Strange, why is he so relaxed, even if he gives up, shouldn't he also pay attention to the other candidates around him, and finally take the opportunity to follow?] 】

Chen Wusheng, who should be like this, not only did not pay attention to the people around him, but stood slightly towards a place where there were fewer people, not in a hurry at all. Naturally, these actions did not escape Wen Zimo's eyes, she hesitated for a moment, and decided to follow Chen Wusheng, Wen Zimo has always been confident in her intuition.

“…… Complete! ”

"Phew!" The huge gongs and drums suddenly sounded, waking up the candidates who were still engrossed. The examiner didn't care about them at all and just started the timer.

"Let's go, the countdown begins."

"Ah...... Ah, okay, let's go. ”

"Where are you going?"

"Don't worry about so much, run first, don't be blind, if you get it right today, I'll go back and have a treat."

Most of the candidates ran with their legs, and the time to shake the hourglass was only two minutes, and it took more than a minute to climb the high platform with all their might, plus the time for thinking and hesitating, the time left for the candidates was extremely short. When the first and second people take the lead, all the candidates move like a snowball, and everyone leaves the place in a moment, the difference is that some people are fast and some are slow, some people have a clear goal and go straight ahead, and some people are swaying and looking ahead.

The first group of people walked through the canvas and were relieved to find that there was nothing unusual behind them. When the gongs and drums sounded again, the candidates on both sides were glad for their choice, and they were not marked on their bodies, indicating that they had easily passed the first hurdle.

"Click!"

The high platform suddenly opened, and the candidates standing on it fell directly down before they had time to recover from the joy, and were surprised to find that there was a pool of ink waiting for them inside the high platform.

Some of the candidates felt that they were finished, and the ink appeared to indicate that they had chosen the wrong choice, and these candidates accepted the reality appointedly. Another part of the test takers realized a certain possibility, and they remembered that the rules clearly pointed out that those who did not have traces passed this level, which did not mean that as long as they did not get ink on them, they would pass if they went out smoothly. So these people began to show their own housekeeping skills.

Those who reacted quickly took action, and those who reacted slower followed suit when they discovered the intentions of others. They then found that the examiners seemed to anticipate their actions, so they set various restrictions on the inside of the high platform. First of all, the walls were coated with a layer of oil, and they were not slippery, not to mention that they could not easily cling to the surface even with the use of true qi.

Someone was desperate and fell into the ink with a pop; Some people are unwilling to give up and use other candidates as their stepping stones; There are also people who rely on stupid strength, carefully control the true qi, and climb up little by little, this kind of person occupies the majority. However, there are always exceptions, a small number of people, with magic weapons or unique exercises, are the first to get out of danger, and Wen Zimo is one of them.

Due to the close following of Chen Wusheng, Wen Zimo fell into the pit a little later. Taking advantage of this precious gap, she was not restricted too much from the pit, so Wen Zimo kicked the instep of her own foot and got out of the pothole. Getting out of the predicament, Wen Zimo found that the high platform was not all traps, and there was a circle of space around it that was enough to stand on. After landing safely, Wen Zimo looked down with palpitations, and about one-third of the candidates fell into the ink. Most of the candidates who did not fall into it are struggling to climb, and anyone with a discerning eye can see that a considerable number of them will not be able to persevere to the end.
