Text Chapter 33 Dantong Exam
When Mingyue entered the classroom for the first round of exams, she found that there were three examiners in this independent classroom, and there were thousands of herbs of various shapes, sizes, and colors as high as a mountain.
The three examiners couldn't help but be stunned when they saw a female disciple coming in.
In the previous years, there were female disciples of the academy who participated in the Danmen Dantong test, and there was no precedent for being admitted after passing. Even if Mingyue passed the exam of Dantong's assistant, the final result would not be admitted.
A kind-looking examiner said to Mingyue: "This classmate, our Danmen mainly recruits male disciples, and the recruitment of Dantong is basically for inner disciples, do you still want to continue the exam?" Mingyue nodded firmly.
The examiners exchanged glances, and it turned out that this female disciple wanted to take the exam, and they couldn't refuse, but in the end, they definitely couldn't admit it. So one examiner registers basic information such as name and age, another examiner takes out the herb and asks about the name, year, and utility of the herb, and another examiner records the test results.
The examiner randomly draws out 20 kinds of herbs for assessment, and if you answer more than 18 kinds of herbs, you will be passed. Only those who have passed this round of the test can proceed to the next round.
Mingyue has studied various medical books since she was a child, and is extremely familiar with the color, smell, characteristics, year, and use of various herbs, so the examiner randomly selected twenty herbs, and Mingyue answered them extremely fluently.
The kind examiner was very surprised, touched his beard and praised: "Yes, yes, I have tested so many disciples, and it is the first time I have seen one with a perfect score." It's a pity, it's a pity. ”
Mingyue smiled and, under the guidance of the examiner, came to another separate enclosed space to accept the next round of exams.
The second round of the exam is to identify the elixir. When Mingyue came in, she saw four or five examiners sitting in front of a large desk, and there were hundreds of bottles of pills on the table, all of which were packed in small jade bottles of emerald green, without any label description, and a table full of them, only smelling the fragrance of the room, which made people feel refreshed.
Mingyue carefully read the detailed exam requirements written on the side, and prepared to participate in the assessment of identifying pills.
The first, second, and third-grade pills are placed on the table, and the test participants must draw five kinds of pills from the first-level pills, three kinds of pills from the second-level pills, and two kinds of pills from the third-level pills, and say the name of the pills, the materials used, the basic use, and the refining time within half an hour. This test is scored 10 out of 100 for each elixir, and the examiner records and scores based on the answers.
This round of exams is simple and simple, and it is really a bit complicated to say that it is complicated, as the saying goes, interlacing is like separating mountains, and those who have studied the pill in depth are all basic common sense. And those who don't have a deep understanding of the pill industry are as difficult as being illiterate and literate. Fortunately, Mingyue has been very interested in the pills since she was a child, and she has also studied the pills for more than a year at the Shushan Immortal Academy, so Mingyue is still relatively familiar with the first-level and second-level pills, and she basically didn't have much trouble identifying them.
The most difficult thing is actually the third-level pill, the third-level pill already belongs to the category of intermediate pills, there are dozens of kinds of pills alone, and it is still very difficult for Mingyue to be able to completely identify.
The bottle of pill that the examiner took out casually, Mingyue carefully identified it as a third-level low-level Xueyan Pill, she knew the main purpose of this pill, but the ingredients could only be said but the rest of the species, and there were several more she didn't know.
The examiner scored on the spot, and Mingyue scored 94 points, which was not low, so he notified Mingyue on the spot to conduct the next round of exams, which is also the last round of exams.
The last round of exams was a written exam, and there were two invigilators in the classroom, and Mingyue saw an acquaintance who was burying his head in answering the paper, and that person was Mu Xiaotian.
The examiner prepares dozens of sets of test papers, and each set of test papers is not the same. There are ten questions in a test paper, which are basically comprehensive knowledge quiz questions, and the time limit is half an hour to submit the paper.
When Mingyue was halfway through the exam, Mu Xiaotian handed in the papers. By the time Mingyue finished the exam, it was already evening outside, and there were no queues outside. She hurried to the cafeteria, and when she was late, there was no good food.
Mingyue walked halfway to remember that she still had things for class in her hand, so she wanted to take a shortcut to the back mountain and return to the dormitory to put it away and then go back to the cafeteria for dinner, so she walked along the secluded tree-lined path towards the dormitory. After turning a corner, you will find the connected back garden, and you will reach the back of the dormitory through the corner of the back garden.
Mingyue walked in a hurry, and when she looked up, she suddenly saw two people standing not far in front. She took a closer look and found that one was very similar to Feng Chengcheng, and the other was Nalan Meidai.
Mingyue was too late to turn back at this time, and it was very embarrassing to pass past the two of them, Mingyue had to squat down under a pile of low bushes, thinking that she would get up and go back to the dormitory after the two of them left.
She thought to herself, why did they let her meet every time they went on a date? It was as if I had come to listen to the wall.
Nalan Daijiao said delicately: "Cousin, can you accept me as your Dantong, I really want Danmen to accompany you every day." Nalan Meidai's voice was delicate and crisp, with a hint of shyness, not at all proud and reserved as usual, just like a girl's coquettish tone towards the person she loved, and she seemed to have forgotten how Feng Chengcheng rejected her last time. She remembered that Nalan Meidai was plotting against her in the last competition, and she always felt that Nalan Meidai didn't like her so much.
Feng Qingcheng said lightly: "All Danmen children in Danmen must go through a formal examination before they can be admitted, and you are no exception. ”
Mingyue suddenly remembered the recent rumors in the academy that Nalan Meidai was admitted to Shushan Immortal Cultivation Academy for the sake of Feng Tingcheng, and also said that Feng Tingcheng had dated Nalan Meidai after the last academic year competition. Recently, I have come to the college more frequently, just to meet Nalan Meidai. Some people even say that these two people are talented and beautiful, both from the royal family and nobles, and they are a match made in heaven, but Mingyue feels disappreciative in her heart.
Mingyue bit her lip, and for some reason she was a little curious. Last time, Feng Chengcheng rejected Nalan Meidai, she had heard it with her own ears, could it be that the two were actually quarrels between lovers?
Just as she was thinking wildly, she heard Nalan Meidai's sobbing voice. Mingyue was suddenly shocked, you must know that this Nalan Meidai has a gorgeous and beautiful appearance, and the man who flatters her can't wait to line up, she is arrogant and indifferent on weekdays, and she has always been a high-minded attitude towards others, she has never seen Nalan Meidai shed a tear.
Nalan Meidai said sadly: "Cousin, don't you really miss the old love?" You know, we had such a good relationship when we were children, even if we grew up, I ...... Didn't I come to Shushan Xianmen just for you? ”
Feng Chengcheng seemed to sneer, and said after a long silence: "If I were still the same as before, would you still come." ”
Nalan Meidai sobbed for a while, and cried and said, "But aren't you already well? Aren't you more worthy of me now? ”
Feng Chengcheng was silent for a long time before he said impatiently: "I still have something to deal with, if you don't have anything else, I'll leave first." ”
Mingyue listened to the two of you and me, and listened with interest at first, but then she only felt tired and hungry, her eyelids became heavier and heavier, and she actually fell asleep with her knees hugged.
I don't know how long she slept, Mingyue felt someone patting her shoulder, and asked in her ear, "Wake up quickly, are you okay?" ”
Mingyue opened her sleepy and hazy eyes, only to find that it was almost dark. With a handsome and enlarged face in front of her, Feng Qingcheng was squatting in front of her and looking at her with concern.
Mingyue was so frightened that she stood up suddenly, but her head hit Feng Qingcheng's chin.
Feng Qingcheng rubbed his red chin and looked at her speechlessly: "Can you sleep in such a cold place?" ”
Mingyue hurriedly stepped forward and stretched out her hand to help him rub his chin and asked, "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, Senior Brother Feng, are you okay?" ”
Mingyue stood on tiptoe, leaned against Feng Chengcheng's chest, and stretched out a hand to help him rub his chin hard. His chin is smooth and clean, and his facial features are just right. She was so close to him that he could feel the sweet scent of her breath.
Feng Qingcheng looked at her delicate face with a pair of eyes fixedly, her eyes were burning, and she didn't feel a little distracted for a while.
"How's it going, does it still hurt?" Mingyue raised her face and asked Feng Chengcheng with a smile.
Under the moonlight, she looked up at Feng Qingcheng's scorching gaze, her heart jumped suddenly, she realized that she was so close to him, this distance was too ambiguous, she was stunned, suddenly withdrew her hand, took a few steps back, embarrassed and didn't know where to look.
Mingyue was extremely embarrassed in her heart, she didn't know what to do for a while, and her heart was beating very hard.
Feng Chengcheng coughed lightly and asked, "I heard that you went to take Dantong's exam?" It is said that he did well in the exam. ”
He's not an invigilator, how did he find out so quickly? Mingyue remembered what the invigilator said, rubbed the corners of her clothes, and said embarrassedly: "Actually, I'm just going to take the exam and have fun, you must not take it seriously." ”
Feng Tingcheng looked at her with burning eyes, Mingyue was a little flustered for some reason, remembering the scene where she rubbed her chin for him just now, she was extremely annoyed, and she couldn't wait to flee the scene quickly.
Mingyue thought so, so she did the same, she hurriedly bowed and said, "That Senior Brother Feng, I, I'll go to dinner first." After speaking, without waiting for Feng Chengcheng to answer, he fled in a puff of smoke.
Feng Qingcheng looked at her in a hurry to escape, stunned, and couldn't help laughing.
Mingyue returned to the dormitory, Nangong Yurou, Mo Yao and Dou Ruhua were waiting for her to go to dinner together, and when they saw her blushing and flustered, they all looked up at her.
Dou Ruhua shouted: "If you don't come back, there will be no more food." ”
Nangong Yurou saw that her face was wrong, and asked with concern, "What's the matter, didn't you do well in the exam?" ”
Mo Yao also said: "Anyway, Danmen doesn't accept female disciples, and the results are the same whether they do well or not." ”
Mingyue remembered the scene of her encounter with Feng Chengcheng just now, and she was very embarrassed, but she felt a little lost. In fact, she took the Danmen exam to recruit Dantong, and deep down she still longed to be admitted, right? What did her heart desire? Is it really to be that little Dantong and learn skills from an alchemist? Or is it because you can see Feng Chengcheng every day? In fact, she herself can't tell.
Mingyue said with a wilt: "The result is already doomed, what do I have to be sad about." ”
Everyone looked at her sympathetically, and they didn't know how to comfort her for a while.
Although Mingyue said this in her mouth, she was actually very disappointed, what was she looking forward to in her heart?
