After the inspection, everyone is concentrated in the courtyard of the county school, on both sides are small rooms with compartments, each room has a table, a chair, and there are signs hanging on the room, which are classified according to the heavenly stems, with the words "A one, A two, B one, B two", etc., which should be the number of each room, one room per person during the examination, to prevent mutual plagiarism.

Everyone has to bow to this year's examiner first, and then draw lots to choose their room number.

At this time, two officials in official robes came out of the house, it was Song Yi, the county commander, and Zhou Qian, the county magistrate, as usual, Song Yi took the exam, and Zhou Qian invigilated.

All the candidates bowed to the two together, and Song Yi said: "This year, Your Majesty is gracious, and then open Enke, select talents, I hope you will grasp it well, show yourself, and take out your own literary talents, I wish you all to be on the list." All the candidates said in unison: "Thank you, examiner." ”

Zhou Qian, who was on the side, heard that Song Yi said so bluntly that he had no literary brilliance at all, and couldn't help but glance at Song Yi with disdain, but didn't say anything, Zhou Qian glanced at it, and found that Lin Mo was also in the crowd, and nodded towards Lin Mo with a little meaning, Lin Mo also noticed, so he had to nod slightly in response.

Just like that, the lottery began, Lin Mo picked up one at random from the note and opened a "Xin Er" couldn't help but smile, it seems that whether he can be admitted this time depends on the blessing of "Xin Er".

When all the candidates are seated, they begin to distribute the exam papers, Lin Mo picked up the exam papers, his heart was still a little excited, there was a feeling of participating in the high school examination, the first question was indeed the test of poetry, "The four seasons are beautiful, there are poems to praise, this is autumn, autumn scenery, autumn should be remembered with poetry." ”

Lin Mo knew that he was going to write an autumn poem as soon as he saw it, and then a poem immediately appeared in his mind, and he was about to put pen to paper, when he suddenly stopped: "Is this considered plagiarism by me?" No, I was earlier than that person, and my predecessors copied the poems of later generations, which is not plagiarism in theory. ”

Lin Mo was relieved at this time, and then wrote: Far up the cold mountain stone path slopes, there are people in the depths of the white clouds. Parking sits in love with the maple forest in the evening, and the frost leaves are red in February. After writing, Lin Mo looked up and saw that everyone else was not writing, and Lin Mo secretly asked if he was waiting for them. Then he shook his head and began to look at the following questions.

Followed by the number of questions, although not common but also tested, the question is "one hundred steamed buns and one hundred monks, three monks are more indisputable, three small monks are divided into one, how many are the big monks and small monks?" "Meaning: 100 monks eat 100 steamed buns, one big monk eats two, three small monks eat half, and half is left. How many big monks and little monks are there?

Lin Mo smiled at it, this is the set unknowns and a function that he learned in elementary school in his previous life. Lin Mo calculated for a moment and then wrote out the answer, "The big monk is twenty-five, and the little monk is seventy-five." ”

The last question is the theory of strategy, "Mencius said: "Fish, I can do what I want; Bear's paws, as well as I want. You can't have both, and you can't have both, and you can give up the fish and take the bear's paw. What does this mean? Lin Mo was stunned at first glance, these words were the fish and bear's paws he had learned in his previous life, from "Mencius's Confession".

Suddenly, Lin Mo remembered that Ma Zhiyuan had asked him to read more "Mencius's Confessions", and he really got this one, could it be that Ma Zhiyuan knew the test questions as early as a month ago, thinking of this, Lin Mo suddenly felt a sense of powerlessness from the bottom of his heart, these wealthy families participating in the county exam is just going through the motions, and it is inherently unfair to those who really study hard.

Thinking of this, Lin Mo had to accept it silently, he was just a grass farmer, and he didn't have the ability and determination to change all this, just live his own life.

Lin Mo began to answer the question: "Husband, the fish and the bear's paw do not refer to their things, but to make decisions, Mencius said that life is also what I want, and righteousness is also what I want; You can't have both, and those who sacrifice their lives to take righteousness are also. Life and righteousness, fish and bear's paw are all decisions, choose one of the two, must choose its weight, bear's paw is more expensive than fish, so choose bear's paw, righteousness is heavier than life, so choose righteousness. ”

Then Lin Mo wrote down all the knowledge points he had taught in class in his previous life, and wrote a piece of paper with a smile. Then I looked up and saw that the shadow on the sundial showed that it was three quarters of the hour, and it should have been almost an hour from the hour to the present.

Lin Mo stretched his waist, looking at the candidates around him who were still seriously answering the questions, Lin Mo raised his hand, and a servant came over and asked, "What's the matter with you?"

"I'm done with this question, can I turn in the paper?" Lin Mo pointed to the answer sheet full of words and asked.

The official was also surprised by Lin Mo's speed, but then nodded and said, "You can hand in the papers, you can go." ”

Lin Mo nodded, put the roll on the table, then packed up his things and left. And all this was seen by Zhou Qian, who was on the inspection tour, Zhou Qian was very puzzled, and said in his heart: "Could it be that the exam paper is too difficult, and this Lin Mo gave up the exam?" Then he came to the official and asked, "Why did the candidate leave just now?"

The officer respectfully returned: "Then the candidate has answered all the questions, handed in the paper and left." Zhou Qian didn't believe it, and when he came to Lin Mo's examination room, he found that the answer sheet on the table was already full.

Zhou Qian picked it up and looked at the answer sheet, his heart was like turning over a river and a sea, and the answers to Lin Mo's three questions were neatly written on this volume. Zhou Qian was shocked by this never-before-seen font alone, and secretly said in his heart: "Good words." ”

Then Zhou Qian started from the poem, "Far up the cold mountain stone path slopes, there are people in the depths of the white clouds. Parking sits in love with the maple forest in the evening, and the frost leaves are red in February. ”

Zhou Qian saw it, and his heart couldn't calm down for a long time, "Good poetry seems to be the opposite of the old horse, regardless of the synonym of the words that follow", Zhou Qian's eyes showed excitement and surprise.

From this poem alone, this Lin Mo can be said to be far superior to everyone, and even his own Jinshi is a little ashamed.

Then Zhou Qian read it again, and Lin Mo just wrote out the answer, which made Zhou Qian frown, and immediately understood, Lin Mo probably didn't know how to answer the mathematics, no wonder, after all, Lin Mo had been studying for just a month. It doesn't matter if you don't write it in detail.

Then comes the most important verse, "The fish and the bear's paw do not refer to things, but to decide." Lin Mo directly pointed out the key point of this sentence at the beginning, concise and to the point, and asked Zhou Qian to take a higher look at Lin Mo.

After Zhou Qian finished reading what Lin Mo wrote, he finally slowly put down the answer sheet and breathed a long sigh of relief, "It's really a demonic person." ”

With Lin Mo's paper alone, it is really a waste to take the county exam, if he can continue to take the exam, Zhou Qian feels that it is not impossible for Lin Mo to be admitted to the Jinshi in the future.

"At a young age, such a talented learner, if you don't cultivate it, you will simply bury the talent, it is a big crime, and the first official of your case will help you settle it." Zhou Qian said secretly.

Lin Mo didn't know anything about it. After Lin Mo came out, he found that there were still many people at the gate of the county school, who should be the relatives and friends of the candidates.

Everyone was a little surprised to see Lin Mo come out so quickly, and they all stepped forward and asked, "Why did you come out so quickly, this son?" What are the exam questions in this county? ”

Lin Mo saw that everyone was so anxious, so he had to say: "This year's county exam is similar to previous years, there is not much difference, the rest of you will definitely be able to complete it successfully, the students just wrote quickly and came out earlier." With that, he turned around and pushed through the crowd and left.

One of them said: "I'm afraid that this person didn't do well in the exam and was stimulated, and was kicked out of the examination room, and he won't hand in the paper so quickly in the future." ”

When everyone heard it, they thought about it and felt very reasonable, and sighed one after another: "Yes, it's crazy again." ”

Of course, Lin Mo didn't know what everyone thought, and at this time he was rushing back to tell Wu Wenyan about today's county examination. And all this was seen by Steward Zhang, who came to wait for the candidates in Mafu.

Every year, several candidates take the county exam, although it is just a formality, and the others have already been sorted out, but the horse government will still send people to wait here, just in case.

Seeing this situation, Steward Zhang knew how important Lin Mo was to Ma Zhiyuan, so he immediately rushed back to Ma's Mansion to report the situation.

"What? He came out in less than an hour? Ma Zhiyuan was stunned.

"Master, more than half an hour to be exact. It seems that Lin Mo should have come out before he finished writing, no wonder he had only been studying for a month after all, although he had Wu Fuzi's guidance, it was too hasty. Steward Zhang shook his head and said with some regret.

Ma Zhiyuan thought about it and suddenly smiled: "It seems that he still underestimated Lin Mo, this county test is still too simple for him." ”

Steward Zhang looked at Ma Zhiyuan in surprise when he heard this: "Master, do you mean that Lin Mo has really finished writing everything and came out?" Ma Zhiyuan nodded.

"However, this is impossible, the time is too short, this ......" Ma Zhiyuan waved his hand to interrupt him, and said with a smile: "I bet that Lin Mo is at least in the top ten this time." "Words are not spoken.

And Lin Mo returned home, Liu Xin'er and Wu Wenyan were a little surprised to see Lin Mo come back so soon, Wu Wenyan hurriedly asked, "Lin Mo, why did you come back so soon?" Did something happen to the county test? ”

Lin Mo smiled and shook his head: "Master, I laughed, the student came back early after finishing writing." ”

Wu Wenyan didn't believe it when he heard it: "Although this county test is simple, it takes at least two hours to add poetry and scriptures, and you have to write it for a day if you are stupid, how can you finish it in less than an hour." ”

Lin Mo smiled and said, "If the master doesn't believe me, I can write another copy of the question and the answer sheet I wrote to you." As he spoke, he took out his pen and ink and began to write.

Because of writing it again, Lin Mo wrote out his answer sheet in less than a stick of incense, Wu Wenyan looked at the answer sheet, his face was full of shock, and finally trembled and said: "This case is not your old man, go to the county government to find Song Yi and Zhou Qian to comment." ”

Lin Mo was a little surprised when he heard this, and hurriedly said: "Master said that I was joking, I just need to be admitted, I have never thought about this case or something."

Wu Wenyan shook his head and said: "This seven-word poem alone doesn't even dare to say that the old man, a jinshi, can be better than this, this county test should be no one can write it, and you are sorry for this poem if you don't take the first county test." ”

Lin Mo was right when he thought about it, this poem was a famous poem in the future, but Lin Mo felt a little sorry for Du Mu's classmates, and took it to deal with emergencies, hoping that Du Mu would not blame.

Wu Wenyan looked at the answer sheet and then at Lin Mo, and couldn't help but pop out two words "demon".
