Chapter 62: The Demon

Originally, I was going to see Xu Mingyuan scratching his ears and cheeks, and the numb-faced scholar and Liu Tangren, who had no way to write, were stunned when they looked at Xu Mingyuan, who was flying like a pen.

"This kid must be scribbling, with the point he learned to help people write family letters, it would be good to be able to cover a few." Liu Tangren said softly to himself, and also began to write. He has participated in the imperial examination for more than 20 years, and he is naturally very familiar with Moyi and Jingyi, so he is not slow.

And the numb-faced scholar looked at Xu Mingyuan with some suspicion, although he looked down on Xu Mingyuan, but since Xu Mingyuan could enter the academy as a humble person, he must have his talent to learn.

Looking at the test paper on the table, the Ma Facebook scholar was also a little big, he was just here to fool his father, and there were few questions on this paper that could be answered.

The young official sat on the Taishi chair at the front, sitting upright, scanning the scholars present. The two officials stood at the end, separated on both sides, to prevent the scholars from cheating.

Xu Mingyuan picked up the pen and wrote, except for stopping the pen in the middle and moving his wrist, an hour later, he almost wrote out fifty ink in one go.

After writing the ink, Xu Mingyuan put down the pen, drank a saliva, ate a baked cake, looked at the weeds outside the window, relaxed his eyes, and then picked up the pen and continued to write the scriptures.

Because of the long time, there are ten more scripture questions in the township examination than in the college examination, and if you are not familiar with the scriptures, it is really not a simple thing to finish.

However, this is not difficult for Xu Mingyuan, he already knows how to write without much thought, and he doesn't need to stop writing at all.

Another hour and a half later, Xu Mingyuan had already finished writing all the scriptures, and after reading it and confirming that it was correct, Xu Mingyuan neatly stacked the written test papers, packed up the pen, ink, paper, and inkstone, ate the rest of the baked cakes, and raised his hand to signal that he wanted to go to the toilet.

The young official asked a small official to follow Xu Mingyuan, and when he saw that Xu Mingyuan had already received the four treasures of the study, he walked to Xu Mingyuan's desk with some curiosity, glanced at Xu Mingyuan's test paper, and was quite surprised to see the strong and healthy Xiaokai.

And when he saw the three words Xu Mingyuan written directly above the test paper, his face changed slightly. However, even the invigilator couldn't look at it, so he took a blank piece of paper and covered Xu Mingyuan's test paper, and then walked back to his seat and sat down.

was followed by the little official inch by inch, and after Xu Mingyuan came back, he directly lay on the table and began to sleep. There are four and a half hours for an exam, and now three hours have not passed, and it would be too boring to sit here and wait.

After the official saw Xu Mingyuan's name, he also looked at him from time to time, frowning from time to time, and it seemed that he had also heard about the academy examination that day.

However, he didn't know what Xu Mingyuan looked like, Xu Mingyuan was dressed like a poor scholar, which also made him a little suspicious that he was a person with the same name and surname.

Liu Tangren, who was still nervously writing scriptures, was also relieved when he saw Xu Mingyuan lying down. In his opinion, Xu Mingyuan must have written everything he could write, and he couldn't write too much, so he would give up so early and go to sleep directly.

The hemp face scholar also had a similar idea, seeing Xu Mingyuan lying down to sleep, and there were few test papers that could be done, he couldn't help but feel sleepy, and he also directly lay down and began to sleep.

The township test is different from the hospital test because the number of participants is large and varied, so there is no rule that you can't sleep. Those boys who came over to play were basically sleeping on their stomachs, some of them snoring like thunder, and they were woken up by the little officials standing behind.

Xu Mingyuan slept comfortably, and only got up when he remembered the bell at the end of the exam. When the two officials received the test papers, the young official counted them correctly, and after going out, he picked up the bamboo box and walked towards the outside of the examination hall.

The numb-faced scholar slept for a while, and he was still in a daze when the bell rang, and when Xu Mingyuan came out of the examination hall, he remembered to clean him up, threw the four treasures of the study into the bamboo box, and when he went out, Xu Mingyuan didn't know where to go for a long time, and stomped his feet in annoyance. But before thinking of it, he told the two family members to guard at the door, and walked towards the door with a smile and a bookcase.

Throwing off a few family members who were just a little more strength was nothing for Xu Mingyuan, watching Zhao Qingliang and Feng Rui get out of the Gongyuan, Xu Mingyuan also went straight out of Xicheng and walked in the direction of Micang Mountain.

Although he didn't take the hemp face scholar in his eyes, this kind of person who feels that his family is rich and superior is much more brainless than the children of a big family like Li Lixin, and he is inevitably in trouble.

It is undoubtedly the most suitable for such a person to let Zhou Binjie clean up, and Xu Mingyuan still doesn't want to cause any trouble in the past two days of the township test.

Back on the mountain, Xu Mingyuan cooked some rice, and there were a lot of dishes sent by Zhou Binjie, and they fried two casually, which was enough for their master and apprentice to eat.

Looking at the dishes and chopsticks in the kitchen, Zhou Binjie should have been here during the day, and Zhou Binjie's enthusiasm for practicing boxing during this period made Xu Mingyuan a little impressed.

In a month's time, Zhou Binjie was finally able to smoothly knock down the eighty-one style demon fist coherently. Now when he goes up the mountain, he carries a pot of wine and a basket of vegetables up the mountain without any need for the coachman to help.

After dinner, walked a few laps along the stone floor, and chatted with the master for a while, Xu Mingyuan went into the room to read the book, and then directly blew out the lamp and went to sleep.

The next morning and yesterday, I went to the Tribute Courtyard early, but I didn't meet Zhao Qingliang and Feng Rui on the road today, and I saw the two when I entered the Tribute Courtyard. The three of them chatted a few words together, and it could be seen that the two were quite satisfied with the first game of the township test yesterday, but they were a little worried about the next two.

Seeing that Xu Mingyuan was unharmed, the two were also relieved. Xu Mingyuan asked the two of them to leave directly after the exam, leaving him alone, and the two also nodded and agreed.

Today, Sun Xuezheng doesn't need to speak, so Lord Zhao doesn't need to repeat the rules, everyone waited on the stone flat until the bell rang, and then they entered the examination hall one after another.

During this period, the hemp face scholar also came over with two brocade clothes and threatened Xu Mingyuan, saying something like thanks to Xu Mingyuan's fast running yesterday.

In the tribute courtyard, he didn't dare to make a move, so he could only talk about it. However, after he made such a fuss, the name of Xu Mingyuan, a student of the academy, spread, and everyone began to isolate Xu Mingyuan.

In fact, Xu Mingyuan also knows what everyone thinks, the academy test and the township test are like two food plates, Xu Mingyuan originally ate on the plate of the college test, and after eating, he ran to the plate of the township test, which naturally made the scholars who were originally staring at the few pieces of meat on the plate dissatisfied.

In the past, many people felt that Xu Mingyuan was dissatisfied with the college examination as soon as he entered the academy, but now he was dissatisfied with the township examination, and Xu Mingyuan felt that he was a little different from the inside and outside.

Xu Mingyuan didn't care much about this, after the township test, the road went half of the way, and no one could hinder anyone. As for the pantothenic acid thoughts in these people's hearts, Xu Mingyuan really can't feel too much sympathy.

It was still yesterday's examination room, Xu Mingyuan sat down in his position, and the young official from yesterday was still invigilating.

The second test of the township test is poetry and the scriptures, Xu Mingyuan wrote a few more poems these days, but he didn't expect the test paper to be sent down and looked at it, and he really won the title of the poem, and directly wrote the Yongxia that he wrote before.

As for the fu, Xu Mingyuan wrote a neat fu according to the requirements of the rhyme, which is much better than the previous college exam.

As for the scriptures, it will not be a problem, after writing the poems, Xu Mingyuan spent half an hour to write all the problems of the scriptures.

In the second township test, Xu Mingyuan completed it all in an hour and a half, and almost slept for the remaining three hours.

Seeing this, Nama Facebook Scholar and Liu Tangren both decided that Xu Mingyuan would not be on the list. And some scholars who knew that Xu Mingyuan was a student of the academy in the same examination hall saw this, and they didn't take Xu Mingyuan to heart.

The bell of the final exam rang, and after the two officials accepted the test papers, Xu Mingyuan walked out of the examination hall with a bamboo box, directly ignoring the scolding of the numb-faced scholar behind him, and shuttled flexibly in the crowd, and after a while, he threw off the tail behind him.

The numb-faced scholar watched Xu Mingyuan disappear into the crowd, gasping for breath, and then remembered to ask Jia Ding to find the two poor scholars who were with Xu Mingyuan.

However, Zhao Qingliang and Feng Rui, under Xu Mingyuan's advice, also left the tribute courtyard early, where can they still find the two of them at this time.

Xu Mingyuan went straight back to Micang Mountain, but he didn't expect Zhou Binjie to sit at the foot of the mountain and wait, when he saw Xu Mingyuan coming back with a bamboo box on his back, he greeted him with a smile and said, "Brother Yuan, how do you feel?" The first solution in this township test should be no problem. ”

"Xie Yuan, if there are no evil characters, there should be no problem." Xu Mingyuan replied with a smile.

"Demons?" Zhou Binjie pursed his lips and said, "Is there anyone in this world who is more demonic than you?" ”

Xu Mingyuan patted Zhou Binjie's shoulder with a smile and said, "Little fatty, no wonder my master likes you, if you want to say that this sycophant, there are really few who are more natural than you." ”

"That's nature. By the way, Brother Yuan, let's drink after the third game of the township test tomorrow, and we haven't drunk together for some days. After drinking, go to my yard? Zhou Binjie squeezed his eyebrows and said, and finally gave a smile you know.

Xu Mingyuan kicked him and said with a smile: "You're not afraid that Bai Lingxuan knows?" ”

Zhou Binjie flexibly dodged Xu Mingyuan's feet, walked backwards towards the carriage, and said as he walked: "Then I will just say yes, and I will pick you up after the township test is over tomorrow." ”

Xu Mingyuan watched Zhou Binjie get into the carriage and leave, and when he went to the grass shed, he saw that there was already a lot of grass in front of Lao Huang, which should have been cut by Zhou Binjie when he was waiting for him here.

Xu Mingyuan took the grass and fed Lao Huang two handfuls, touched Lao Huang's head, and went up the mountain.

Tomorrow, the last of the township examination, after the end, the imperial examination can also be temporarily over.
