Chapter 625: A Dangerous Moment
Late at night.
Xiangyang.
After two days of examinations, this first imperial examination has ended.
There were no questions in front of the examinee, and there was no problem for the examinee to leave the venue until the examinee's test paper was received.
But.
The more this was the case, the more nervous Shen Du and the others became.
As the saying goes, the storm is very calm before the storm.
Although Xu Tian had told him, this matter was under control.
But he still couldn't help but worry, after all, if something didn't happen, no one knew what would happen.
After the exam papers are received, it is the most critical correction.
The difficulty in this part is that the examiner is not the same person!
People who don't stop will have different preferences, and there will be deviations.
Many people will even find ways to cheat and bribe examiners because of this.
As long as the essay he writes is in line with the examiner's heart, it can be successful.
This step is the most important step for Xu Tian.
Therefore.
He would never allow anyone to choose because of their preference.
It took a long time to mark the test papers, and because of Xu Tian's personal supervision, none of the examiners dared to be perfunctory.
For two whole days, Xu Tian and the examiners stayed in the examination room and did not come out.
As long as you stay that way, nothing will happen.
On the evening of the third day, the last test paper was marked.
At this time, night had fallen, and the heavens and the earth were shrouded in darkness.
In order to avoid long nights and dreams, Xu Tian decided to announce the results on the next day.
In this way, those who want to make trouble, only tonight is left.
This will be their last chance!
Shen Du and Zhuge Liang obviously understood this truth, so on the last night, they could strengthen their defenses.
Especially in the place where the test papers were stored, Shen Du sat directly at the door in person.
Except for Xu Tian alone, he didn't allow anyone to enter.
He didn't believe it, could anyone rush in from under his nose?
And just like that, time passed little by little.
Seeing that the day is about to dawn, the sky is beginning to have a white belly.
This is also the time when people are most tired.
Even Shen Du had a tired look on his face at the moment.
Merely.
His expression was extremely solemn, and his eyes were always wide.
Because he was here, the soldiers around him didn't dare to sleep secretly.
It can be said that even at this moment, this place is like an impregnable existence.
"It's going to be dawn soon, I see what you can do to make trouble!" Shen Du grinned, looked at the fish belly white in the sky and muttered to himself.
But.
Shen Du is still too optimistic.
Just as he let out such an exclamation, there were inexplicably many more black spots in the sky.
And at the same time as these black dots appeared, the air began to smell a lot of fuel.
"Fire Attack!" Shen Du exclaimed.
But his expression did not show a trace of panic, as if he was not worried that the test papers in the room behind him would be burned.
In fact, Xu Tian had long expected that the other party would have such a hand.
So.
They used huge copper boxes to store the test papers, and dug a large hole in the room to put the boxes in.
In other words, even if the house behind Shen Du is burned down now, it's fine!
Just burn it!
However, what Shen Du didn't expect was that those dense black spots flying over were not burning jars.
Even if it flew over, it was indeed a jar.
When these jars hit the ground, they all turned into pieces.
One of them was something black, but it poured out of it, and I don't know what it was.
Just when Shen Du was about to take someone to take a look, these things didn't know what method was used, and they began to burn on their own.
Even stranger.
When they burned, no flames were raised, only smoke billowed out.
It was only a quarter of an hour, and the whole room was covered in thick smoke, and it was impossible to see anything clearly.
"Do you want to rob like this?" Shen Du sneered, and after a while, the shadow guards appeared from all over the place instantly, scattered in various places in the dense fog.
This is the killer weapon that Xu Tian reserved for him!
As long as there is a shadow guard, nothing big will happen here!
Just like now, despite the fog all around, there is no human figure to be seen.
However, the shadow guards have specific costumes and markings, and there is a tacit understanding between them that they are skilled and cannot be more proficient.
Only if someone dares to break in, they can tell at a glance whether it is an enemy or one of their own.
But Shen Du gradually found that he seemed to be thinking too much again.
Despite the thick fog, no one showed up.
It's as if the other party uses this trick and doesn't = want to break in.
"What the hell are you doing?" Shen Du's brows furrowed.
He found that he seemed to have been tricked, but he didn't know what was wrong!
Looking at the thick fog rolling in front of him, Shen Du's brain spun rapidly!
After a while, Shen Du's complexion had never changed again.
He immediately understood what was wrong!
But now he didn't have time to think about it, he immediately shouted to the shadow guards and defenders around him, "Come with me!" ”
When the army was deployed to Shen Du, Xu Tian specially explained that everything must be completely obeyed by Shen Du's orders.
Therefore, after he shouted, the shadow guards and defenders around him, without any hesitation, followed Shen Du and left here.
Shen Du didn't think too much about it, at this moment he only hated why he didn't react earlier.
Just now, he suddenly understood why the enemy did not appear.
Maybe from the beginning, the other party's goal was not to do the exam file, what they should think of was to do it directly to Xu Tian.
Because this time everyone knew that Xu Tian would be staring at the examination room from beginning to end.
At the same time, it also means that as long as you stay in the examination room, you will definitely be able to find Xu Tian!
"These bastards!" Shen Du couldn't help but curse secretly while running frantically towards Xu Tian's residence.
If Xu Tian has three longs and two shorts, then he Shen Du will be responsible for his death!
"Quick! Hurry up! Shen Du kept urging.
Because he couldn't leave the examination room, Xu Tian's residence was not far from Shen Du's location.
But at this moment, Shen Du felt that this distance was too long.
What's more, as Shen Du got closer and closer to Xu Tian's residence, he had already heard the fierce shouting of killing.
It turns out that Shen Du guessed right this time!
Their target is indeed Xu Tian, and they have already done it!
Shen Du could only shout in his heart now: "The king must resist it!" ”
Gradually.
Shen Du finally saw the gate of Xu Tian's residence, but now there were I don't know how many people had gathered there!
The gate has been opened, and the enemy has clearly breached the compound!
"Slaughter them for me!!"
Shen Du was like a mad tiger at the moment, with a bloodthirsty light in his eyes.....
