XXIII. Hell difficulty
The sky is slightly bright, the rooster crows, the most important scientific examination of the Great Zhen Kingdom is coming as scheduled, and the candidates who have been in the Sansheng Pavilion for half a month are ready to go, put on a unified plain white robe and walk into the examination room. The examination room of the examination will be established in the west pavilion of the Three Holy Pavilions, the appearance of the Buddhist temple in the past is still there, and the four huge golden eagles of the Heavenly King are surrounded by angry eyes in the four corners of the southeast, northwest and northwest, just looking up at it all feel majestic. The remaining 48 candidates were arranged in staggered order and divided into four columns, each of which was headed by an Ombudsman.
Cheng Xiuyi took a deep breath, and what he inspected today was "Warring States Policy", "Vernacular" and "Book of Righteousness". She silently stroked the cherry feather under her shirt, and slightly dispelled the impetuousness in her heart.
Gong Jingyu is dressed very formally, and the stone blue dragon coat is embroidered with a five-clawed golden dragon in front and back, and the five-colored auspicious clouds are interspersed. The hair ornament is also neatly combed, and between the eyebrows and eyes is not at all easy-going, indifferently scanning the living beings, and in an instant, he returned from the role of Mr. to the high Eighth Prince. Several candidates who usually prefer to disturb Gong Jingyu couldn't help but swallow their saliva secretly, and finally understood the insurmountable gap between them and the prince.
"To read, the first must be ambitious, the second must be knowledgeable, and the third must be constant. If you have ambitions, you will not be willing to be indecent; If you have knowledge, you will know that there is no end to knowledge, and you dare not be self-sufficient, such as the sea of Hebo, such as the well frog peeping into the sky, all of whom are ignorant; If there is conterrence, nothing can be done. All three are indispensable. Today is the time to test your diligent study, I wish you a bright future, a prosperous journey, and a great reputation for your achievements! After Gong Jingyu finished speaking, he stood up and held up a gold-patterned double-crushed cup, and drank the sake in the cup in one gulp. The candidates in the audience were all red-eyed, and their hearts were aroused infinitely excited, and they applauded and saluted.
After some encouragement, Gong Jingyu lit a long cigarette, and the test officially began.
Cheng Xiuyi was placed in the most marginal position in the east corner, I have to say that the deterrent power of the Golden Eagle King is so strong, when he bows his head to write the question, he always feels that there is a pair of big eyes on the top of his head, Cheng Xiuyi is a little cold sweat and inexplicable weakness, not to mention other students with poor psychological quality. A female student sitting behind Cheng Xiuyi was already trembling, and her lips trembled.
However, this exam is very interesting, it is said that through Gong Jingyu's changes, the original three-day test was changed to ten days, which greatly increased the content of the exam, which means that those students who bought the exam questions through silver money in the past have really eaten a pot, even if they know the exam questions, it is difficult to memorize them completely. It also prevents people who are opportunistic in other ways, the long content of the exam is comprehensive, the ideas are novel and the angles are tricky, and people who have no real skills may not even be able to read the questions.
In terms of scientific research innovation, Gong Jingyu has to be said to be a person that Cheng Xiuyi admires. This not only represents breaking the ideological shackles of the past few decades and hundreds of years, but also represents the sense of mission that he carries on his shoulders, and can only succeed and not fail. If this scientific expedition does not go well and talented people cannot be selected, Gong Jingyu will be marked as a sinner in history along with this scientific expedition.
But if he chooses the path of innovation, he will not look back, so Gong Jingyu will personally handle the examination subjects at all levels, and there will be no negligence.
Gong Jingyu is very clear about the difficulty of this test. With his understanding of Cheng Xiuyi, he is only enough to answer a barely qualified. But as long as the psychology has survived the test of hellish difficulty, what awaits these students is the spring blossoms. - Even if it is so difficult that you can't put pen to paper and rack your brains, you have to grit your teeth and persevere until the last day. What this test really needs to test is not only the degree of knowledge, but also the spiritual quality of human nature.
How many people can hold on? Gong Jingyu's heart was half nervous, half expectant.
Cheng Xiuyi soon sensed that something was wrong, and that these topics were far beyond written knowledge. One of the questions asked: 'The ancient sages of Yue Ruoji are also in heaven and earth, and they are the first of all beings. What is the 'Yin Dao' and 'Yang Dao'? This sentence is taken from the "Warring States Policy", which is "The Book of Wordsless Heaven", which is generally examined by silent writing or analysis, and will not be examined at all on the way of yin and yang, because this is the art of war. There are many topics like this, which directly made Cheng Xiuyi take a breath.
The previous dozens of days of study were just a little scratchy, but the content of the test was the deepest! Many students have emptied their minds and their breath has been annihilated. It's not to blame them, they can't write the first question, and they can muster up the courage to answer the second question, but they can't until the tenth question, most of them are broken jars and broken, and they let themselves go. Either be in a daze, or answer randomly.
Gong Jingyu knew in his heart, he only noticed the unusual three people present, not to mention the two he had intersected with, and the third was a young man he had never paid attention to and had been studying alone in a remote corner. Gong Jingyu hurriedly looked at this person's name-Gu Chen.
Gong Jingyu was a little curious, but Gu Chen kept lowering his head to write the question, and he couldn't see his appearance at all. Looking at the results of the test in other places, it is only forty-eight on the side. The homework during the study period of the Three Holy Pavilion is also mediocre, and it is impossible to find mistakes, but it is as dull as water. One or two came and went, and it really made the three gentlemen and other students ignore this person. However, his performance in the HKCEE examination was unusual, and only he, Cheng Xiuyi and Cheng Yisheng answered as usual among the 48 candidates.
Cheng Xiuyi has always been famous, Xie Yuan's halo is beside her, Cheng Yisheng is often by her side, and she is also a focus figure. But Gu Chen, who has the same calm and calm mentality as the two before, should not be the insipid caution he shows, unless it is deliberately done by him. Gong Jingyu was a little frightened by his speculation, if it was true, this Gu Chen had been lowering his attention, and even freely regulating his grades and homework, how strong should he be?
As if sensing Gong Jingyu's inquiring gaze, Gu Chen raised his head slightly, looked at him for a moment and bowed his head silently. At this moment, Gong Jingyu's right eye jumped fiercely, and the sunlight shone on the fingers raised high by the Western Wide-eyed Heavenly King, and then reflected on Gu Chen's raised face. Under the golden sunshine was a terrible face.
Gu Chen had yellow-brown broken hair, and under that hair were patches of crimson hideous scars, several of which occupied half of his face. From the forehead to the eyes to the corners of the lips. All wrapped in that ugly and terrible long scar. Gong Jingyu immediately recalled the fear of seeing the eagle-nosed and white-eyed distant mountain immortal on the high hall when he was nine years old, and the hand in his sleeve was tightly clenched into a fist.
Liu Meng noticed the pale-faced Gong Jingyu, walked over and whispered: "Eighth Prince, this child is said to have experienced the fire disaster in the suburbs fifteen years ago......
The name of the Great Kingdom was changed from "龘" to "贇", and only a year after the establishment of the new country, there was a raging fire in the suburban village near the capital Kyoto. It was a long, long time ago, Gong Jingyu remembered that he was only three years old at that time, and his father had only recently ascended the throne, and the fire burned for three days and three nights, and the suburban village and the surrounding forest were all spared. People in the palace said that it was the father who got the heart of God, and there seemed to be a colorful phoenix circling in the rain, and it did not fly away until the rain stopped, which means that it is God's will to burn away old habits and establish a new country. As a result, the disaster turned into a strange joyous event, and the whole of Kyoto was celebrated with lanterns for seven days.
This child is the living mouth left behind by the fire of regret?
Gong Jingyu swept away the horror in her heart, and only sympathy. His relatives and clansmen were burned by the fire, and the emperor ordered a celebration, how sad his heart must be. What kind of mood did he have in order to study alone and come to today's exam step by step.
The day's exams ended quickly, and the noisy meal time was silent at this time, and even Cheng Xiuyi frowned tightly and hurried back to the house to study without eating a few bites of food. The others sighed and hung their heads. I wanted to play a beautiful opening battle, but the difficulty of the test paper was chilled. Shangguan Baocai can already think of his father chasing and beating with a stick with thick wrists.
"This exam is really not a human test, I think a few of us should quit early and find another way!" Several children of merchants with a lot of family backgrounds thought so. For them, learning is just a little more elegant, and if they are lucky, they can get a half-official position, even if they fail the exam, they can go home and inherit the property.
So, that night, he packed up the fine soft, wrote an application for voluntary withdrawal and handed it to Liu Meng. Liu Meng just sighed slightly, saying that it was a pity, and directly approved the permission without saying anything.
They set an example of taking the lead in abandoning the exam, which caused many people to feel uneasy. Cheng Xiuyi returned to the house and plunged into three books, her test results today were actually not good, but fortunately, she found some inertia in the idea of asking questions. For example, if you think he will take the general knowledge points, he will not take the test, but will test some details that you would have overlooked in the past. Cheng Xiuyi grasped this point, conceived tomorrow's exam questions, and reviewed all the things that he had ignored before.
The smaller the dot, the more you can't let it go.
The test paper produced by Gong Jingyu can be said to be menacing and unexpected. It made Cheng Xiuyi have a fighting spirit, and he felt like he was meeting an opponent in chess. It seems that this is not just a test, but more like a game between her and Gong Jingyu invisibly.
Cheng Xiuyi cheered up the spirit of twelve points, she came to the conclusion through a day of exam experience, she can no longer sit still and study in the previous way, and she must simulate the test questions according to Gong Jingyu's mentality.
Throughout the night, Cheng Xiuyi followed Gong Jingyu's way to simulate twelve sets of exam questions about "Vernacular". Looking at the mountains of rice paper in front of him, Cheng Xiuyi let go of the pen and greeted the next exam.
