For a while, the atmosphere was ignited again, and the people of Jing County refueled the Evergreen Academy. Almost at the same time, two dragon boats arrived at the starting point at the same time.

When waiting for the person who came up with the question, everyone was still breathless, and they adjusted their positions slightly.

All of them were physically exerted, and their clothes were soaked with sweat and the water stirred up by the oars.

An Huahao was no exception, but he was even more surprised in his heart, others couldn't hear it, but he could hear it, the drummer of Baiyun Academy was afraid that he was not an ordinary person.

Turning his head, the drummer was also looking at him at the moment, and the two looked at each other for a moment.

It was Gu Zikai's voice that made An Huahao turn around.

"Brother Song, this topic—" There was some embarrassment in his tone.

An Huahao looked down, the topic was actually an arithmetic problem, the title was: There are pheasants and rabbits in the same cage today, with thirty-five heads on it and ninety-four legs on it.

Generally speaking, the six arts of a gentleman have to learn a lot and take a lot of exams, but since the previous dynasty, only practical strategies and articles have been examined.

Therefore, today's academy teaches students the Four Books and Five Classics, writes policy theories, and how to write good articles.

Where was this kind of arithmetic taught?

Therefore, almost the vast majority of scholars and students were dumbfounded when they saw this topic.

Who would do that?

There is the one who is a little short-tempered, there should have only been one schedule, and he was dragged into three paragraphs, almost dying, not to mention, you just have a question on the Four Books and Five Classics, everyone can't answer it, and they are not good at learning.

But this is a question in the scriptures, the devil knows how many chickens and rabbits are there?

I hated to slap the oar in my hand on the surface of the river, and the anger was sent out, and I slapped the water upside down.

An Huahao couldn't help but twitch the corner of his forehead.

Why is this topic so familiar?

A few days ago, when he and Xiaotong were studying and settling accounts at night, Xiaotong also joked with him, saying a topic for him to calculate and change his mind.

At that time, it was the topic of the pheasant rabbit in the same cage.

I remember that at that time, he was also confused.

Xiaotong told him the solution, saying that if the rabbit and the chicken can lift two feet at the same time, 35 heads, a total of 70 feet, then there are 24 feet left, and these 24 feet are the remaining rabbit's feet, and each rabbit has two feet left, that is, 12 rabbits.

35 heads, minus 12 rabbits, then the chickens are 23.

An Huahao calmly took the pen and paper, and wrote the answer with a brush.

Gu Zikai took a look at the question, although he didn't know how An Huahao answered the question, but at this moment was the critical moment, Gu Zikai didn't think much about it, and directly handed over the answer to the person who came up with the question.

As soon as the person who came up with the question saw the answer above, he immediately waved the flag in his hand to indicate that he had passed.

An Huahao beat the drum, although the students of Evergreen College were tired

It was hot, but I still listened to the rhythm of the drum and rowed the oars in unison.

An Huahao knew that everyone's physical strength was almost exhausted at the moment, so he simply slowed down the drumbeat, unhurriedly, and let people adjust their breathing and rhythm with his drum, and slowly followed.

The students of the other academies were anxious when they saw that the Evergreen Academy had handed in the answer so quickly, but it was still right.

Looking at An Huahao's eyes, they were full of incredulity, how did this person figure it out.

The other students are still holding their pens and nibbling: "There are 35 heads, 94 legs, rabbits have four legs, chickens have two legs......

"How many rabbits are there? Did you figure it out? ”

"Hell knows how many rabbits there are! Isn't this forcing us? Am I going to catch rabbits and count? ”

"Who's up with this? Out of this kind of ghost topic? ”

……

It wasn't until the last race of the dragon boat of the Evergreen Academy that it was nearly halfway through, and the Baiyun Academy finally figured out the answer.

They were followed by the other three academies, and the rest were still scratching their hair frantically, already driven crazy by chickens and rabbits.

Because of the long delay, they also rested for a long time, and this time their strength also recovered.

Slowly, they all caught up.

Originally, when I came to the stage, the faces of the officials of Jing County looked a lot better after the Evergreen Academy took the lead.

Even Imperial Physician Du glanced at An Huahao twice, and then pretended to ask casually, "What is the problem?" Why didn't you answer when you left Evergreen Academy? ”

Governor Chen waved his hand, and naturally someone would bring up the topic, and he was not afraid of the topic being leaked at this time.

When everyone saw it, they couldn't cry or laugh.

The first topic is a clever one, and the second one is a little narrow-minded.

The third topic made most people stunned, and some people couldn't help but count it in their hearts when they looked at it.

Even Zhu Haoran glanced at it, was stunned for a moment, and said with a smile: "My lord, this topic is interesting." ”

Governor Chen stroked his beard calmly: "After all, it is to have fun with the people, and the topic is naturally just a clever one." ”

What else can others say, saying that you don't follow the routine? Isn't this a pit man?

Although it was difficult to say anything because of the relationship between superiors and subordinates, the silent atmosphere expressed the unspoken thoughts of all the officials present.

Zhu Haoran touched his nose and made a round: "In this way, the students of Evergreen Academy have a lot of knowledge, and the first two questions are just that, but the last question involves arithmetic, and the average student doesn't know much about this, but I didn't expect Evergreen Academy to answer it so quickly." ”

As he spoke, he looked at the starting point, and there were still several dragon boats that had not moved.

looked at Lu Jimin, the dean of Evergreen Academy, again: "Dean Lu has taught well!" ”

Lu Jimin still has that slow temper: "Thank you for complimenting!" ”

You are all ancestors! again

Lift the siege for you, I'm a pig! Zhu Haoran grinded his teeth and lowered his head to drink tea.

At this moment, on the river, the advantages of Evergreen Academy are still obvious, even if the Baiyun Academy behind them is chasing all the way, and there is foreign aid, it can't hold back too much, and the chase is general, it is really weak.

On the contrary, the Evergreen Academy, because of the adjustment at the moment, followed the drum beat, although it was not fast, but it has been very stable, as long as this speed is maintained, the first place is theirs.

The people watching from the shore were almost crazy, jumping to cheer for the Evergreen Academy! Shouting the slogan of Evergreen College's victory.

Especially the half-grown children, they were so excited to see it, jumping and shouting.

At this moment, an accident happened, a half-sized leather boy, probably too excited, jumped on the tree dishonestly, slipped under his feet, and did not grasp his hand, and went straight to the surface of the river.

"Ahh

If this child is planted in the river, it is okay, there are many men who know how to water, and there are also officials and the like, they will definitely be able to save him.

The crowd exclaimed that it was not this, but the tree that the child had climbed on, a hundred-year-old locust tree by the river, with lush branches.

One of the tall branches stretched out far away, hanging in the air on the riverbank.

The child was afraid that he would not be able to see if he climbed low, but he climbed high and sat on the branch in the air, and his vision was really good.

At this moment, he fell down, was flicked by the branch, and went straight to the dragon boat of Evergreen Academy like a small cannonball.

If this is smashed, not to mention the child's life, I am afraid that the dragon boat of Evergreen Academy will also capsize.

"Oh my God—"

It was the shouts of the crowd of onlookers.

"Two dogs—"

This is the heart-rending cry of the mother of the child who fell.

Everyone who saw this scene was stunned, and some of the timid ones even closed their eyes and didn't dare to look at it again.

Governor Chen, who has always been calm, couldn't help but stand up, no matter what the situation was, as long as it happened, he couldn't escape the blame.

To put it mildly, this is a living handle.

Originally, the dragon boat race of Jingxian Academy was good, and there was no problem for so many years, but this year, I intervened, and if someone died, it must be my own problem.

Governor Chen wanted to order his guards to help, but where was the time?

His heart sank.

Mrs. Zhang was anxious: "Where did this child run out, what did his father and mother do?" How do you care? It's-"

Only Mei Xiaotong was quite calm, holding on to the railing of the stands, staring at the river without blinking, and had already connected with Xiao Tiantian in his heart: "Xiao Tiantian, come out quickly!" ”

It's been a long time.,Since the last time Oda Tian released a mission to study medicine.,I don't know why.,Recently, the dragon has been missing.,I didn't want to look for it for a few days.,It's not at all silent.,It's like it never existed.。

Mei Xiaotong has had a lot of things to do recently, and she is lazy

You have to deal with it, but at this moment, it is a matter of one life, and if it is serious, it is impossible to say that it is still many lives, and it is impossible to take care of many people.

It took a long time for Xiao Tiantian's voice to sound in a hurry: "The host is big, what are your orders?" ”

"That kid, is there any way to keep him from crashing into the dragon boat?" Mei Xiaotong didn't talk nonsense, and asked directly.

It took Xiao Tiantian less than a second to scan the audience: "The host is big, the distance is too far, the system is not recommended to kiss you - of course, if you are willing to give points, the system can temporarily improve your physical potential, so that you can save the child at the last moment, dear, please press 1 if you choose to give up, choose to exchange points to save people, please press 2-"

If it weren't for the urgency of time, Mei Xiaotong really wanted to ask, did Xiao Tiantian secretly go to Xbao to make a guest appearance in customer service during this period of time? This mouth full of kisses, kisses, kisses, kisses?

But at this moment, she can't think about it, although points are rare, but human life is more precious, and she is about to choose 2.

said that it was too late and that time was too fast, An Huahao tore off the red silk cloth wrapped around the drum, threw it into the river, and it was wet when he pulled it up.

An Huahao's wrist turned secretly, and the wet silk cloth flew straight into the air, wrapped around the child's waist, and then turned around a few times, unloading most of the force on the child's body, and then pulling the silk cloth and bringing the child into his arms.

Rao is like this, this force made An Huahao's whole body shake several times, and he almost fell off the dragon boat without holding the child in his arms.

Because of his shaking, the dragon boat also swayed, and it was originally a fast slide, and such shaking was like the rhythm of capsizing.

Fortunately, the helmsman on the dragon boat is experienced, and he firmly held the rudder, Gu Zikai had already prepared, and under a password, the people on the dragon boat followed and acted together, and controlled the dragon boat in a thrilling way.

However, this also delayed the time, and the dragon boat behind caught up again.

An Huahao didn't have time to say more, he directly put the child to his side, kicked his toes, and grabbed the drum stick that he had put down in a hurry just now into his hand, and pulled a trick, An Huahao was angry: "Steady, go-"

"Hey, hey, hey—" The students of Evergreen College also made up their minds, paddling to the rhythm of the drums, and shouted the dragon boat horn in unison.

The people on the shore were relieved to see that the child had been saved, and then an indescribable excitement lingered in their hearts, and the men could not help but shout along when they heard the trumpet sound.

The trumpets on the surface of the river and the shore were connected, "Hey, hey, hey—" One is bigger than the other, one is stronger than the other, and one is more imposing than the other!

The students of Evergreen Academy, who were almost exhausted, listened to the sound of the trumpet, and they didn't know where to gush out of strength, gritting their teeth and rowing hard, at this moment, they couldn't see anything in their eyes, they could only see the end in front of them

Dot.

The dragon boats behind were intimidated by their momentum, and their morale was suppressed for a while.

Finally, in full view of everyone, the dragon boat of Evergreen Academy was the first to cross the finish line, and both sides of the river bank were completely boiling.

The men screamed excitedly, pulled the people around them, patted each other's shoulders, and vented their excitement and joy in their hearts.

The women also lost their reserves, and the handkerchiefs and sachets in their hands did not need money, and they were thrown into the river like rain.

At this moment, in the stands, Mrs. Zhang and Mrs. Qi's hearts were completely relaxed, Mrs. Zhang was so happy that she couldn't close her mouth, and pulled Mrs. Qi to show off: "Or my son-in-law is amazing, right?" Oh, my goodness, no, I have to cook two dishes for him in the evening to replenish his body. I'm tired of him today! ”

Mrs. Qi is still echoing: "No, I'll go back and ask my master to check his pulse, prescribe some tonic medicine to eat, and keep him alive!" ”

The two of them forgot about it excitedly, and remembered Mei Xiaotong: "What about my daughter?" ”

Turn around and look for it.

I saw Mei Xiaotong looking down inexplicably, looking at the wooden railing under his hand.

"Girl, what are you still doing? Don't buy firecrackers and put them off? Mrs. Zhang was anxious.

Mei Xiaotong let go of her hand casually, and saw the place where she was grabbing, "click-" sound, the wooden railing broke into two, fell into the water, and floated away along the current......

The atmosphere around him, which was already very excited, suddenly froze.

Or Mrs. Zhang reacted quickly, "Hey, my daughter, are you okay?" What's the matter with this railing? I'm afraid it's not in disrepair, right? It's good that you're standing here, and if the kids get involved here, it's going to be bad—"

At the same time, he said: "Come in, it's dangerous outside-"

For a while, everyone believed it, and while complaining about why the Evergreen Academy hadn't repaired the stands this year, they went in with palpitations.

Mrs. Zhang took the opportunity to pinch Mei Xiaotong and asked her to go downstairs to buy firecrackers to celebrate, so as not to attract attention on it.

Mei Xiaotong stuck out her tongue, patted the sawdust on her hands, and went downstairs.

Mrs. Wu and the others were also busy following downstairs, and the women were busy preparing hot tea and snacks.

Mei Xiaotong saw that Xiao Wu was still guarding with his back to the door, although he heard the movement, he didn't look back.

My heart moved, "Little brother, I want to trouble you with one more thing." ”

Xiao Wu heard Mei Xiaotong's voice, and hurriedly turned around: "It's okay for Xiucai Lady to tell me, my name is Xiao Wu, and Xiucai Lady just call me Xiao Wu." ”

"Okay, Xiao Wu, please go buy a few firecrackers and come back, just hang them at the door." Mei Xiaotong is as good as a stream.

Xiao Wuyi listened, where there was still something I didn't understand, so I ran to buy firecrackers.

The stands next door, as well as the nearby stands, as long as it is the stand of the family members of the Evergreen Academy, they have sent people to buy firecrackers.

After a while, Xiao Wu came back with several firecrackers, and talked to Mei Xiaotong excitedly

said: "The boss who sells firecrackers said that because our Evergreen Academy won the championship, so buy three firecrackers and get one free, which is considered to be a congratulatory to Evergreen College!" ”

Mei Xiaotong smiled, and asked Mrs. Li's man and Xiao Wu to find two bamboo poles, hang the firecrackers on both sides, and then light them, crackling and not lively.

The sound of firecrackers attracted the most lively children, one by one covered their ears and watched the firecrackers finish, and the bold ones pouted their butts and lay on the ground to look for the firecrackers that were not finished.

One after another, the firecrackers bought by the surrounding people were also hung up and put away.

The sound of firecrackers resounded throughout the river.

In the most central stand, the officials of Jing County showed a reassuring smile up and down.

Governor Chen also stood up and slapped his hands twice: "Evergreen Academy deserves to be called a century-old academy, good!" Good! ”

Zhu Haoran also said two words of congratulations.

With the two adults in the capital at the beginning, the other officials all gathered around Lu Jimin, and rainbow farts emerged one after another.

If the concentration is a little worse, I'm afraid that I will be dizzy, and I don't know who I am.

Lu Jimin is still like that, but from his eyes, he can still see a hint of joy.

On the river, immediately behind the Evergreen Academy, it was not Baiyun Academy, but another academy.

The dragon boat of Baiyun Academy didn't know what was going on, and almost half of the students on the dragon boat stopped paddling halfway through, so the speed naturally slowed down, and there seemed to be some kind of dispute.

Let a dragon boat in the back seize the opportunity and surpass the past.

By the time the people of Baiyun Academy reacted, it was too late to exert any more force, and they reached the end of the line by the third one by half a distance behind the hull.

At this moment, the students of Evergreen Academy, one by one, almost without any image, collapsed in their positions, and their hands trembled so much that they couldn't lift them.

Especially the child who was rescued by An Huahao, who was also wrapped in a rice dumpling by a wet red silk cloth, was at An Huahao's feet, unable to move, and I don't know if he was scared, so he didn't even dare to speak.
