Chapter 126 Come, let the dog go!

In the martial arts academy exam, there are five liberal arts and four martial arts, and it seems that the liberal arts are more important than the martial arts, but in fact, although the martial arts exam is one less, its weight is much heavier than the liberal arts. You must know that Lu Dao joined the liberal arts when Taizong was in the reign of the martial arts academy exam, and Taizu founded the martial arts academy has always had only four martial arts.

As the national strength of the Great Sui became stronger and stronger, and the national foundation became more and more stable, the emperor's attention to the literati gradually increased. Martial arts rule the country, but I am afraid that the more you rule, the more chaotic it will become. The throne of the Great Sui was in the hands of Taizong, and the first thing he did when he ascended the throne was to set the rule that the martial arts academy must join the liberal arts in the assessment. Although it was quite controversial at the time, Emperor Taizong insisted on his decision against public opinion.

As a result, there was Li Xiao's outstanding brilliance in the nine doors of that year.

Later, Emperor Taizong's foresight had to be admired. If the students recruited by the Yanwu Academy were pure martial artists, it would not be a good thing for the army of the Great Sui or even the country at all. A person who cultivates to a high level is not necessarily a general, but a fierce general who can charge into battle and take the head of a general in the midst of thousands of armies is only a fierce general, not a handsome talent.

The Great Sui has always had no shortage of fierce generals.

But even if the liberal arts exams have been accepted. But in the martial arts academy, the martial arts results are still important. For example, Fang Jie's five liberal arts subjects are excellent, but in terms of weight, they are definitely not as good as the four martial arts subjects, or even as good as the three subjects. No matter how good the liberal arts are, if you make a mess in the martial arts exam, you can be a clerical job at most. Although there is an essential difference between military Chinese posts and civilian officials in the imperial court, it is a great pity that since you are in the army, you cannot lead the troops.

Five liberal arts subjects are excellent, and this achievement is still very watery. If it weren't for His Majesty's cherishing of his talent and holding up Fang Xie with one hand, it would be good for Fang Xie to get three high scores in the liberal arts exam in terms of true ability. It is precisely because of this point that Fang Xie attaches great importance to the martial arts exam.

Before arriving at the Yanwu Academy, Fang Xie came out of Changchun Garden. And just the night before, the emperor's words at the end of the conversation made Fang Xie even more afraid to slack off.

"Since I have seen you twice, it is because I know that you have some ability. But the skills you show now are not enough to impress me, and if you want to have a good future, you can score a few more excellences in the martial arts exam for me to see. I have never been stingy with rewards, and if you have the ability, you will take more from me. ”

There is no intent in this statement, but it is also a clear message to Fang Xie that as long as you expose your skills and satisfy me, I will definitely reuse you.

How could Fang Xie miss such an opportunity?

Now that we have reached this era of the world, it is not just the mentality that what has come is safe.

The boy who was lying on the ground outside the martial arts arena and laughing loudly and looked a little stupid at least proved himself in the martial arts exam. He didn't bother to pay attention to the disdainful or resentful eyes of the children of the family, he only enjoyed his further sense of accomplishment. Isn't being jealous of success a success?

Of the four exams in martial arts, the first two should actually be counted as one. But the results of the assessment still have to be counted according to two subjects, and if you can get two more excellences, there is no suspense in entering the Martial Arts Academy. If the seven excellent doors can't guarantee him to enter the Martial Academy, it can only be said that there is no justice in this world.

After lying on the ground and resting for half an hour, the professor of the Yanwu Academy, who was standing on the wall of the earthen city, announced the preparation for the third exam.

The third is mounted archery.

The war horses raised by the Yanwu Academy are all in the Yanwu Arena, and the wide and flat school field of the Yanwu Field is enough for those candidates to show their riding skills and archery. Regardless of whether or not they have taken a break from the consumption of the first two exams, the candidates know that they no longer have the right to lie on the ground and not get up. Unless they want to give up the exam at this time, but as Sui people, the pride in their bones makes them never make such a choice.

It is possible to fail, but it is never possible to give up.

The arrogance that had almost relieved his spirit stood up, stretched out his hand and pulled Fang Xie and said with a smile: "I said before the exam that our candidates from the military are staring at you. Since His Majesty allowed us to wear uniforms to participate in the examination of the Martial Arts Academy, not a single soldier has squeezed in the top three of the three consecutive examinations. Not even a single soldier can squeeze into the top ten, although this is not a shame, but after all, it makes people feel uncomfortable. ”

He pulled Fang Xie up, patted Fang Xie on the shoulder and smiled: "Work harder, brothers are looking at you!" ”

"I'm a typical little rich and safe."

Fang Xie smiled and said, "Don't put such a heavy burden on my shoulders for the soldiers, I can't bear it." ”

"Until now, who else can I give it to if I don't press you?"

"Instead of pressing me with a burden, you might as well press me some silver. Speaking of which, silver definitely gives me more motivation than a burden. ”

After giving him a blank look, he looked at the soldiers who were preparing for the exam, and said with some emotion: "Actually, including myself, which candidate from a military background doesn't want to be the hero who is in the limelight?" Who doesn't want to be the best person everyone admires? Who doesn't want to squeeze into the top three and write the record of the Yanwu Academy to leave a name in the history of the glorious ancestors? However, now we all know that we don't have the opportunity to fulfill our dreams, and you can. ”

"Fortunately, you are okay, otherwise how can we feel comfortable."

Fang Xie looked at the school field, spread his shoulders a little helplessly and said, "Okay, although I don't want to be hypocritical...... The next test is mounted archery, but my horse is still in the city. ”

As soon as he finished saying this, Fang Xie saw Qiu Yu, the beautiful female professor of the Yanwu Academy, slowly walking over from a distance with his red horse. Zhang Qi couldn't help laughing, stared at Fang Jie's face and said, "Handsome young man, it's really useful to look good." If you can get the examiner done before you get the exam, this is what makes the brothers admire your real ability! ”

"Fuck off!"

Fang Xie scolded with a smile, slapped the dust on his body a few times, and walked over to Qiu Yu.

"Thank you, sir!"

Fang Xie first leaned over to salute, and then took the reins from Qiu Yu's hand. The red horse seemed to be a little uncomfortable with this woman with white eyes, and looked a little cramped. When it saw Fang Jie, it was obviously a little excited.

"Good job."

Qiu Yu nodded at Fang Jie, looked at Fang Jie's somewhat haggard expression, and suddenly smiled and said, "I will be the main examiner for a while, and now I will give you a chance to bribe me." Don't be stingy and make a big opening condition, you should know that the price of buying me will definitely not be cheap. ”

Fang Xie was silent for a while and then said tentatively: "There is a stall selling hot soup noodles xiaolongbao in front of my house, which is good. ”

Qiu Yu glanced at him and turned his head to leave, Fang Xie smiled wryly and scratched his hair. After walking out of the city for four or five steps, the beautiful female professor did not look back or stand still, and her voice floated over in a very gentle voice: "Tomorrow morning." ”

"Good!"

Fang Xie nodded vigorously and smirked.

……

……

Fang Xie had been looking around when he was preparing for the riding and archery competition, in fact, he had been looking for it since he arrived at the Martial Arts Academy this morning. He didn't forget to brag at that moment - Xiang Qingniu, who was honest and even scared like a quail in front of women, because Xiang Qingniu said that he was the examiner of this year's martial arts academy exam.

The liberal arts have ended, and the martial arts still have the last two courses left.

The little fat man was still missing, and Fang Xie even wondered if he was lying again. Before meeting Shen Tianfan, Fang Xie actually didn't think that Xiang Qingniu would really be a great person, and when Shen Tianfan said that Xiang Qingniu invited Xiao Zhenren, a veteran of the bull's nose, to send someone to look for him, Fang Xie was really taken aback. You must know that the four words of Dao Xiang Qingniu and the worldly master do not match at all, Fang Xie would rather believe that the big dog is the power of the Dao Sect than believe every word that Xiang Qingniu said.

If Xiang Qingniu wrote it, Fang Xie didn't even believe the comma.

Later, Fang Xie believed it, but Xiang Qingniu did not come.

At the very least, it hasn't appeared in Fang Jie's sight until now. Therefore, Fang Xie was sure that Xiang Qingniu would definitely not be in the martial arts arena, because with the temperament of that shameless man, if he was in the martial arts arena, he would have already come over to find Fang Jie.

Fang Xie didn't find him, so he was a little worried.

It is definitely not a trivial matter to let Xiang Qingniu not come to the martial arts arena and let go of a chance to work hard in front of him. It's not just Xiang Qingniu, Fang Xie didn't see a single person wearing a robe in the martial arts arena of the martial arts academy today. Since Xiao Zhenren of Qingle Mountain came down to watch the ceremony with His Majesty the Emperor, why didn't he come?

Fang Xie was worried because he had a vague guess in his heart.

Seeing that the candidates gathered on the side of the school after receiving their war horses, Fang Xie shook his head and shook off some messy thoughts in his heart. He raised his hand and stroked the red horse's neck a few times, and said with a smile, "Are you ready?" ”

The Crimson Horse ignored it, and lowered its head as if trying to find some tender grass to eat on the bare school grounds, but it was obviously disappointed, so it was a little dismissive of such a big scene. In the eyes of horses, many people and many horses are definitely not as good as a lot of fresh and juicy grass.

There is a Shenquan Mountain outside Chang'an City, and the world-famous Shenquan Villa is on Shenquan Mountain. Shenquan Villa is famous for the wine it brews, and even the wine used in the banquet under His Majesty is also enshrined by Shenquan Villa. Shenquan Mountain is not tall and majestic, and it looks somewhat similar to the Wolf Milk Mountain in the west of Fangu City from a distance.

Viewed from a distance, the arc of Mt. Shenquan is soft. When people think of mountains, the first thing that comes to mind is the beauty of the majestic and steep, and it is rare to think that the mountains also have a beautiful side. This Shenquan Mountain is a model of beautiful mountains.

Shenquan Mountain is not far from the martial arts arena, and it doesn't take an hour to run back and forth on horseback.

When the martial arts field was built, most of the timber and stones used in the construction of Tucheng Tushan were transported from Shenquan Mountain, including the small forest in the martial arts arena, which was also transplanted from the mountain, which consumed a lot of manpower and material resources.

Shenquan Villa is located halfway up Shenquan Mountain and is said to have been built during the reign of Taizong of the Great Sui Dynasty. It was built by the descendants of a general who had the merit of the dragon when Taizu founded the country, and the descendants of the general had no intention of making wine but preferred winemaking. More than 100 years later, his descendants no longer have any titles, but the name of Shenquan Villa is extraordinarily loud.

The wine pond is in the deepest part of the Shenquan Mountain Resort, but it is actually a huge cave. The entrance to the cave is small but the inside is spacious, and the temperature is perfect for storing wine. The treasure of Shenquan Villa is a few jars of old wine that have been stored for decades, hidden in this cave, and more than half of the original jar of wine is now left, of course, no one is secretly drinking, it is said that the wine has been so viscous that it can pull out the silk. If you don't enter the wine pool, the aroma of wine can be intoxicating.

And just when Fang Xie was preparing for the riding and archery competition, two very special people appeared outside the wine pool of Shenquan Villa.

One is a little fat man in a black robe, who is not very old. The chubby face is as clean as a steamed bun from the pot, and anyone who sees it wants to reach out and pinch his face twice.

The other was a priest in a bright red robe, with a faint crack on his forehead. I can't tell the specific age, and my face is like a knife and an axe, and the edges and corners are clear.

Looking at the entire Great Sui Dao Sect, there were only three people who were qualified to wear pure black Dao robes. One is Xiao Zhenren of Qingle Mountain, one is Zhang Zhenren of Wudang Mountain's Sanqingguan, and the other is naturally Xiang Qingniu, a very unreliable fat Taoist.

"That's it?"

Xiang Qingniu looked at the cave, tilted his head slightly and asked the red-robed great priest standing beside him.

The crane Taoist is in charge of the punishment of one breath, and his cold appearance on weekdays is terrifying. Coupled with such a noble status as a great priest, it is inevitable that there will be some momentum that is not angry and arrogant. But in front of Xiang Qingniu, this arrogant and somewhat old-fashioned great priest had a very humble and respectful attitude.

"Uncle Hui, it should be here."

Xiang Qingniu snorted, walked a few steps forward, looked at the cave, cleared his throat, and said loudly: "Listen to the bald donkey inside, you have been surrounded." There is no point in resisting, and coming out and confessing your sins can still be exchanged for a light hair. I'll count to one, and if you don't surrender again, I'll let the dog go!" ”

"Uh...... Uncle Xiao, is counting to one too little? ”

"Stupid, I'm not going to start counting backwards from ten?"

"The teacher and nephew are blunt......"

"Oops I-fuck, it's farting when Lao Tzu?!"

"One!"

This sentence Xiang Qingniu did not say to the crane Taoist, but shouted it to the cave. He turned around and hooked his fingers and said angrily: "Lao Tzu doesn't let go of the dog, am I really scaring you to play?" ”

Behind him, more than a dozen little dao boys each came up with an extremely majestic mastiff in their hands. The mastiff is extremely violent, and although those little Taoist boys have cultivation, they are obviously a little uncontrollable.

"Put it in, put it all in!"

Xiang Qingniu pursed his lips and said, "Bald donkeys are most afraid of dogs, this is what the second senior brother said back then!" ”
