The candidates were all waiting for the meal under the canopy, and after a while, a few people dressed as dragon and tiger guards moved to four round tables, and ten soldiers held dishes in their hands, and a dozen dishes were placed on each table. When the candidates saw that the dishes were all ready, their saliva flowed, and they began to devour them when they heard the sound of the rain.

Yin Ji and Pang Gu sat next to each other, holding a chicken leg in their hands and biting it, while laughing and saying: "Brother Pang, the food in this palace is good, such a sumptuous dish, the taste is delicious, but it is better than the servants in our house." ”

Pang Gu also chewed this food in his mouth, how could he have time to answer, but he just said "um" twice perfunctory.

After the candidates finished lunch, the table was also removed by the housekeeper, and looked at the rain outside, although the rain decreased, but it did not stop. You can faintly see thunder and lightning on the mountain. It was not about time before there were a few thunderclaps, and the rain stopped as if it had been commanded.

At this time, the sky had cleared, and the cool breeze hit after the rain, and it became noisy, and a ray of sunlight shot out of the cracks in the clouds, just shining in the muddy school military field.

The crown prince Liu Yan sat at the bottom left of the dragon throne, and since the Han Emperor was not there, it was naturally arranged by Liu Yan. Liu Yan beckoned Xu Bingde, the secretary of the military department, to come to him and said: "Father-in-law, you see that this place is muddy now, you let your subordinates beat the soil solidly, and the red circle is no longer visible, remember to let people mark it too." Hurry up and let someone get it, if the wine is good, you can invite the imperial grandfather and his old man to take the exam! ”

Xu Bingde nodded yes, and went down to order. In less than two quarters of an hour, everything in the venue was processed, and Xu Bingde hurriedly accompanied someone to invite Emperor Han to come.

A few gongs sounded, the Han Emperor came in person, it seems that the Han Emperor is in a good mood today, and everyone knelt on the mountain to call for the salute.

At this time, the candidates stood in an orderly manner in the middle of the school military field to listen to the training. Emperor Han was full of interest, seeing that the candidates below were all alive and vigorous, he couldn't help nodding again and again, it seems that he will be able to select a few talents this time, but he didn't expect Lu Zuo to be very smart and come up with such a method, Emperor Han laughed happily twice, and said: "You candidates have come from afar to participate in this martial arts examination, and I am very relieved." The reason why the commander is selected by force this time is to be able to reduce talents without sticking to one pattern, and I hope that all the pillars of the future can make some gains! ”

Emperor Han said, and everyone shouted "Long live Shengming".

Then the Han Emperor sat back in his position, and all the ministers dared to sit down. Then Xu Bingde, the secretary of the military department, walked to the center of the general platform and said solemnly: "Ladies and gentlemen, this martial arts examination will be personally conducted by the Shengshang, and the one who wins the first place will be appointed by the Shengshang as the generalissimo of the expedition to the west. All candidates should register in front of the station. After the name, a reference will be selected, and the winner will participate in the next round. The contest is dominated by horse battles, weapons are optional, the two warring parties, one of the losers who falls off the horse, and those who go out of the red circle will lose, and the point will stop, and must not hurt people's lives, if there is a violation of the above rules, the test qualification will be cancelled. ”

After the candidates marked their names one by one, they returned to the shed, just waiting for the invigilator to roll call.

Xu Bingde took the red list in the hands of the Yellow Gate Official and read: "In the first game, Yin Ji will play against Jiang Chun. ”

When Yin Ji heard his name called, he jumped up from his seat excitedly. Pang Gu also stood up and patted him on the shoulder, "Take him down!" ”

Yin Ji nodded to Pang Gu confidently, "No problem!" Yin Ji walked out of the canopy, rode on a white horse, urged the horse to the landing platform on the sidelines, pulled out a spear, and then turned the horse's head to the middle of the red circle. Yin Ji glanced at the master on the stage, and the master and apprentice smiled heartily, and then Yin Ji searched around for the person named Jiang Chun, and shouted, "Where is Jiang Chun?" ”

Suddenly, a big man with a spear in his hand and a black horse sitting under his crotch, urged the horse to come to the circle, pointed the gun at Yin Ji and said with a smile: "Little baby, uncle advises you to go back to feed as soon as possible, don't come here to be embarrassed!" As soon as these words came out, the candidates in the canopy burst into laughter.

Emperor Han saw that he was a descendant, but he was about to become an adult, and he dared to come to fight, so he stroked his beard and was full of expectations.

Yin Ji didn't want to fall behind, "Hugh the ability of the tongue, let's see the real chapter in the competition." ”

"Let's go!" Xu Bingde's voice fell, a gong sounded, and the competition officially began.

The two horses were opposite, the two of them clamped the horse's legs at the same time, and rushed towards each other, the two horses kicked by mistake, Yin Ji picked up the gun and fell, only one round, and Jiang Chun rolled off the horse in response. Before the people on and off the stage could see clearly how they fought just now, they saw Jiang Chun fall to the ground and scream "ouch", followed by a burst of exclamations, and even the Han Emperor on the stage clapped his hands and shouted: "Amazing, it's really a young hero!" ”

"The first Yin Ji wins, please sit down in front of the point and wait for the next round!" Xu Bingde shouted.

After several rounds of fighting back and forth, only the last few people remained, and Pang Gu had already been waiting in the canopy, and he couldn't bear it anymore.

"In the eighteenth round, Sima Wei vs. Pang Gu!"

Pang Gu laughed loudly, stood up and moved his muscles and bones, and said, "It's finally my turn!" "When he had brought out of the stable, he took two axes. Pang Gu urged the horse to come to the circle, and saw that the person who came was a thin middle-aged man, with a sharp beak and a beard, so he guessed how much he was capable of.

Sima Wei saw Pang Gusheng's hateful face, his heart was already half cold, and then he looked at his tiger's back, his fists were almost bigger than his own head, and when he was nervous, the bright silver spear in his hand fell to the ground disobediently. Sima Wei's embarrassed appearance made others laugh, but more people began to be surprised by Pang Gu again, and they all felt that this person must be very capable, even Emperor Han felt that Pang Gu was surprised, and muttered: "This person is really like an Arhat descending to earth!" No wonder the man was scared like this. ”

Sima Wei saw that he was a little out of shape, and the weapon fell to the ground again, he didn't know how to react, so he could only look at Xu Bingde helplessly, and wanted to ask the secretary of the military department to show him.

Xu Bingde had never seen this kind of scene, and he was scared like this before the competition began, so he looked back at Emperor Han and wanted Emperor Han to decide. Emperor Han understood, and after thinking for a moment, he felt that Sima Wei was scared like this without a fight, if he really went into battle to kill the enemy, he must not be scared to the point of urine! So he whispered to the internal supervisor Zhang Cen, "Disqualify that person!" ”

Zhang Cen took two steps forward and said in a sharp voice: "Cancel Sima Wei's martial arts competition......"

"Wait!" Pang Gu shouted loudly, and the sound was like a bell, and the people in the entire school military field were shocked, "This is not fair!" ”

As soon as Pang Gu's words came out, there was an instant uproar below, everyone looked at each other, and they didn't know what their intentions were, wouldn't it be better to surrender without a fight? You can also save a little stamina to prepare for the next game. However, his interruption stunned all the officials on the stage, everyone looked at the saint, and Zhang Cen also looked at Emperor Han in embarrassment.

The more Emperor Han looked at it, the more he felt that this person was good, so he said loudly: "What? Do you have anything to say? ”
