Early the next morning, the four of them followed the master to the county school in an ox cart, Wang Gui and Tang Huai secretly stayed up late to read last night, both of them were not in good spirits, yawning all the way. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ

Yue Fei gritted his teeth in anger, and said in a low voice: "I repeatedly advised you not to stay up late last night, but I didn't listen, what should I do if it affects my performance later?" ”

Li Yanqing smiled and said, "It's okay, anyway, the two of them are just mud bodhisattvas, pretending, as long as they don't fall asleep." ”

"Brother Qing'er, why does this sound awkward?" Tang Huai rolled his eyes and said.

"Then let's put it another way, you two are the chief and deputy coaches, and you are only responsible for pressing the formation, and let me and Lao Yue do the rough work of charging into the formation."

Wang Gui grinned, "I love to hear this, I'm handsome, Lao Tang is the deputy marshal, that.... Where is the pioneer officer Li Yanqing? ”

"Shut up!" Master Yao Ding turned his head and glared at Wang Gui fiercely.

Wang Gui lowered his head in fright and stuck out his tongue.

The county school is located in the northeast corner of the county, this area is the cultural area of Tangyin County, the north is the Confucian Temple, the south is the Bao'en Temple, the middle is the county school, the county school is the largest group of buildings in Tangyin County, covering an area of hundreds of acres, there are hundreds of large and small school rooms and dormitories, the largest diligence hall is even more magnificent, even the county government is dwarfed.

There are more than 500 students in the county school, and in addition to young students, there are also many old scholars who have failed many times.

The gate is a stone pillar archway, which is engraved with four big characters: 'Ji Shi's blood'.

There is a one-zhang high stone tablet next to it, which is engraved with Su Shi's autographed inscription: 'Broad view and appointment, thick accumulation and thin hair.' ’

However, there are obvious traces of fire and axe chisel on the stele, and the word 'Su Shi' below is also re-supplemented afterwards, so it is obvious that this stele has suffered a catastrophe.

When they walked to the front of the steps, they saw Tang Zhengzong hurriedly greeted them, and Tang Zhengzong was responsible for arranging a competition venue for them, and at the same time preparing tea and a resting place.

In fact, he has a more important task, is to prevent Lushan Town School from being plotted, cheating and plotting has always been the tradition of the Boy Scouts, all kinds of unexpected things will happen every year, the year before last was the Tangyin County School Primary School used the landlord's convenience to hide a note in the exam table in advance, last year was the Tangbei Township School collective diarrhea, so it is especially important to arrange a shrewd and capable person.

However, so far, the Lushan Town School has been safe and sound for four consecutive years, and has not been subjected to any conspiracy, making Tang Zhengzong temporarily useless.

Tang Zhengzong stepped forward and whispered to Yao Ding: "I heard that He Zhen secretly visited Ma Xiancheng last night. ”

Yao Ding frowned, "It shouldn't be possible to deal with our Lushan Town!" ”

Tang Zhengzong sneered: "Probably Weinan Town wants to enter the finals!" ”

In other words, Weinan Town Academy is already preparing for tomorrow's rematch.

Yao Ding snorted, "I'm afraid it will backfire!" ”

After walking a few steps, Yao Ding pulled Li Yanqing aside and whispered to him: "If the other party draws the couplet, you can write that reading couplet, and we can get this point." ”

Li Yanqing hesitated, "But what if they have a designated topic?" ”

Yao Ding smiled, "Of course, there will be a designated topic, but since you can write that reading couplet, then you have no problem with anything else." ”

Li Yanqing smiled bitterly in his heart, only God knows whether he can write it by then.

．．．．．．．

There will be four matches in the ring today, four teams will be eliminated first, tomorrow will be the rematch, and then two teams will be eliminated, and the day after tomorrow will be the final match.

In addition to the main hall, there are four sub-halls behind the Qindian Hall, and today's four ring matches will be held in the four sub-halls, and the judges are served by the county order, the county Cheng and Xuezheng, and there is a lack of judges in the sub-hall, so three professors of the county school will serve temporarily.

Lushan Hall was arranged in the C Vice-Hall, the judges were the three professors of the county school, the ring competition is a popular saying for everyone, the actual name of the competition is called 'debate test', which is also the traditional competition of the literati, as early as the Spring and Autumn Period, this kind of ring competition-style debate was very popular.

The two sides sit opposite each other, one party comes out of the question, the other party can answer after discussion, the specific question type is drawn on the spot, generally both sides each have three questions, if there is a tie, then the evaluator will ask questions respectively until the division is high.

Another role of the evaluator is to judge the reasonableness of the questions made by both parties, if the evaluator thinks that the question is too tricky, he can request that the question be invalidated, and if it is invalidated three times in a row, the evaluator will ask the question instead.

The topics were prepared in advance by the teachers of both sides, and Yao Ding carried a big burden into the county seat, which contained various topics prepared by him.

When the bell rang, the students on both sides entered the arena, while the master sat at the door, unable to enter, and had to face away from the arena, only allowed to listen and not speak, let alone make any small movements.

The three judges were all gray-haired old scholars, they sat due north, Weinan Town in the east, Lushan Town in the west, four couches lined up, the students all wore white Confucian robes, wearing study crowns, looking quite like the disciples of the sage who were debating.

It's just that the four teenagers in the Weinan Town School are all tall and handsome, like a jade tree in the wind, they are full of confidence, and they are even more energetic, and they are determined to win.

The four students in the Lushan Town School are much younger, their clothes don't fit well, and they look a little funny, especially the two students are sluggish, and one of them can't help yawning, and the three judges frown, and the impression score is poor.

Master He Zhen was very proud, and kept sneering at Yao Ding, who was sitting on the other side, which meant to say, 'I don't think there is any need to compare, just admit defeat, so as not to lose face and go home.' ’

It's no wonder that last year, Lushan Town School played against Tangyin County School, and as a result, the three questions raised by the other party were not answered, and it was passed on as a joke for the whole county.

Yao Ding's face was gloomy, and no one knew what he was thinking.

At this time, another bell rang, and the debate officially began.

The presiding judge stood up and said slowly: "Although everyone knows the various rules, I still have to read them again, the first one, the conditions for contestants, must be official students of the academy, the upper limit is not more than thirteen years old, and the lower limit is not less than six years old. ”

Li Yanqing felt that this article was tailor-made for himself, and it is estimated that he is the youngest contestant since the establishment of the Boy Scout Club.

The presiding judge read very slowly, and it took him a quarter of an hour to read the thirteen rules, and at this time, Wang Gui trembled and whispered, "Brother Qing'er, I can't hold it back." ”

One of the evaluators above frowned and asked, "Do the students of Lushan Academy have any questions?" ”

Li Yanqing raised his hand, "People have three urgencies, can I go to the toilet now?" ”

The hall burst into laughter, and when the chief judge saw that they were young, he couldn't help but smile and waved his hand: "Fortunately, we haven't started drawing questions yet, let's go!" ”

Wang Gui and Tang Huai jumped up and ran away, and even Yao Ding couldn't help but shake his head and sighed lowly.

After a while, Wang Gui and Tang Huai ran back, and Yue Fei glared at them fiercely, this was the first time this kind of thing had happened.

"Okay, according to the rules, the strong are humble, and Master Yao of Lushan Town is invited to step forward to draw questions."

This is also a very embarrassing moment, it is clear that He is strong and Yao is weak, but there is no way, without the shame of this moment, there will be no effort in the coming year, and the academic competition is so cruel and full of spurs.

Yao Dingtie stepped forward with a blushing face, took out an inscription from the lottery holder, and handed it to the chief judge, who glanced at it and said loudly: "Silent scripture." ”

As soon as the question type came out, the whole town of Weinan suddenly showed joy, and their luck was really good.

There are five types of questions, including Meditation, Questioning, Competition, Miscellaneous Examination, and Impromptu.

The simplest of this is the Sutra, the most difficult is to make, that is, to write poems on the spot, the most biased is to compete in archery, shooting is one of the six arts, so archery is set as one of the question types by the county, of course, it refers to literary shooting, that is, throwing arrows, but it is not a mandatory question, and it can also be changed when drawn.

The four students have their own division of labor, Yue Fei is the main question, Li Yanqing is the main answer, Wang Gui and Tang Huai are the deputy questions and deputy answers, which is also the reason why Yao Ding must let Li Yanqing and Yue Fei participate in the boys' club, in fact, only two people are enough.

In front of Yue Fei, there were five types of questions, each with three questions, arranged in order of difficulty.

Yue Fei picked up the first envelope from the inscription type, took out the question and read it aloud: "Taishi Gongyun, the husband is strategizing, and the decisive victory is thousands of miles away, may I ask, what is this from, and who is it referring to?" ”
