Chapter 52: Wenhai's Choice
Wen Hai saw him over, and his kind eyes seemed to see through his mind at a glance.
He confessed: "Teacher, although I know that the gentleman has made a promise, and I promised to do the brocade thing, I don't want to miss this opportunity."
The more he talked, the more guilty he became, what he was doing now was completely contrary to what his teacher usually taught him!
I saw Cao Geng say more kindly: "It's okay, the brocade is also a promise you made when you don't know the completeness, you can choose again."
At the end, he said another sentence, which gave Wen Hai great encouragement.
Wen Hai came out of the house, although he made the final decision, a little relieved, but he felt that things had become completely different!
The next day, on the field, Wen Sheng, Wen Hai, and Chen Fansheng stood in a row in turn and drew lots in order.
Wen Sheng drew an empty lot, and Wen Hai won the lot.
He took the sign and looked up at Cao Geng on the table.
Cao Geng still looked at him with his kind gaze and nodded lightly at him.
"I really won the lottery!" Wen Hai looked at Wen Sheng.
Wen Sheng's face was full of generous blessings.
Except for Xiao Yin, no one noticed that Wen Sheng glanced at him.
That look was full of provocation and contempt.
Wen Sheng thought to himself: No matter how smart he is, he is a child after all!
Xiao Yin felt that something was wrong, and sure enough, in the next second, he heard Wen Hai loudly choose Chen Fansheng as his opponent!
Cao Zhijin stood up in surprise and looked at Wen Hai.
Wen Hai glanced at her apologetically, and walked towards Chen Fansheng firmly.
"I'm going to try the book with you!"
As soon as Wen Hai said this, the surrounding villagers let out one inhaler after another - this time Chen Fansheng must be finished!
"Okay." Chen Fansheng is still the cold one.
This time, he did not arouse the disgust of the villagers, knowing that it was a moth to the fire, but he seemed so calm, but it made people think that his courage was commendable!
The place with the largest collection of books in the village is the academy, but Wenhai himself is the manager of the study, and he has read all the books there, and he doesn't know where to find the books he hasn't read.
Although the villagers all know in their hearts that even if Wen Hai has not read a book, with Wen Hai's ability to never forget, he can easily win against Chen Fansheng!
But the form that should be there must be!
I don't know why, it may be that Chen Fansheng defeated Cao Li by himself, or it may be that everyone didn't expect him to be able to hold on until now, and everyone is no longer hostile to Chen Fansheng's participation in this competition as before.
Although they knew about that rumor, as Chen Fansheng passed all the way and gradually became apparent, they seemed to understand that Chen Fansheng was not as useless as he seemed on the surface!
The academy seems to have been prepared for this.
Wen Zhi walked down from the platform with a disciple of the academy in his hand, holding a box in his hand.
I saw that the disciple who followed him was holding an incense stick and an incense burner in his hand, and after he fell to the ground, a disciple carried the table and came over.
He put the censer on the table and lit it.
Wen Zhi opened the box and introduced: "The two books in this are written by the teacher himself, in duplicate, and no one has read them before, as the title of this competition."
He looked at the incense burning slowly in the incense burner and said: "With the time limit of one stick of incense, whoever has more silence and more accurate silence will win."
The villagers craned their necks and waited for him to take the book out of the box, only to see that the book was higher and higher with two fingers together.
Not to mention memorizing in a stick of incense, I'm afraid that for ordinary people, it is impossible to read this book carefully in a stick of incense!
The villagers held their breath and watched the next game quietly.
The disciples of the academy each brought their desks and stools, and the two of them sat down.
Next to each of them stood a disciple, ready to help them when they needed something.
Wen Zhi held the book to Chen Fansheng and quickly helped him lay out the paper, ink, pen and inkstone.
It's the same with Wenhai.
Everyone saw Wen Hai holding a book in his hand, turning over the pages one by one, as if the fruits were neatly placed in a basket, without hesitation.
And Chen Fansheng's side turned out to be the same.
It's hard to say how much he wrote down, though!
Soon Wen Hai finished the whole book, the incense was only half burned, Wen Hai dipped the pen in ink, and wrote on the paper.
Here, Chen Fansheng is not lagging behind.
Wen Zhi put away the book and stepped aside, and soon a disciple took the book away.
At this time, he only needed to put away the paper that Chen Fansheng had written out silently.
He just shook his mind for a while, and Chen Fansheng wrote it all over the place!
He hurriedly stepped forward to take the piece of paper, looked at it in front of him, and was shocked!
Such a dignified handwriting was written in such a short time! It's still silent!
He hadn't read that book, and he didn't know that Chen Fansheng had written geometry correctly, but just looking at the dense but neat and orderly words on the paper, he could conclude that Chen Fansheng had extraordinary knowledge!
When the incense burned to the end, the disciples of the academy shouted, and the two put down their pens at the same time.
Wen Hai breathed a sigh of relief, raised his eyes to look at Chen Fansheng, and found that the number of papers he wrote down was about the same as his!
Look at Chen Fansheng again, he still has that calm and relaxed cold appearance.
The disciples of the academy took out the book and corrected it on the spot.
First of all, it is necessary to determine which of the two has more silent writing.
The disciples of the academy side exclude two disciples each from reviewing, and then exchange and review each other's.
The conclusion is: the two of them actually wrote as much as they did!
Is it a tie?
The villagers were shocked!
But this is so possible, no one has ever seen Chen Fansheng read any books, and he is so likely to tie with the talented Wen Hai!
The next step is to see who has the highest accuracy.
This is a lot more of a task than comparing the two who dictated more.
I saw that all the disciples who did not participate in the competition in the academy participated, and they used the ink of other paints to correct them, and when they encountered a typo, they recorded it.
The villagers held their breath as if they could hear each other's heartbeats. They've never been so nervous! What's even more incredible is that this is the first time in their lives that they are so nervous for Chen Fansheng!
The final result is: Chen Fansheng is wrong in five words, and Wen Hai is not wrong in a single word!
The nerves of the villagers finally relaxed, but they couldn't help but feel sorry for Chen Fansheng.
It's only five words, what a pity!
Competing with the talented Wen Hai, he only lost to him in five words, which is already very powerful!
The villagers couldn't help but applaud and cheer for Chen Fansheng.
This is the first time that the villagers are willing to cheer for Chen Fansheng without any ridicule.
Chen Fansheng stood in place, as if waiting for something.
Just as the academy prescription was about to announce the winner, Cao Geng suddenly stood up.
"I'll see." He kindly took Chen Fansheng's test paper, and after seeing the words circled in red by the disciples of the academy, he suddenly smiled kindly.
"Wenzhi, take a look." He handed Chen Fansheng's test paper and the book he wrote to Wen Zhi.
Wen Zhi looked at it several times, looking puzzled.
Is there something wrong?
But he looked at it several times, but he didn't find out what was wrong.
The place circled by the academy was indeed Chen Fansheng's misspelling, and there was no problem at all.
