Chapter 42: Success and Failure are in progress
Helian Longshan was surprised to find himself lying on the ground, and hurriedly got up and sat back in his seat.
Thinking carefully about the situation he saw on the white screen just now, he concluded that Miss Huang would be fine, first, there was a maid to serve and take care of her, and secondly, two pieces of coals fell on her body to prevent her clothes from igniting and causing injury, but he was in a hurry to shout to save the fire, which might bring trouble, if the old Confucians investigated it, saying that they were disturbing the examination room and disqualified from being a son-in-law, it would be bad. Didn't an old Confucian warn everyone once!
Thinking of this layer of stakes, Helian Longshan became frightened and broke out in a cold sweat. On the judging and supervising seat, several old men were muttering and exchanging something; Fu Jian and Fu Xiong were staring at the judging and supervising seat, as if urging them to deal with it as soon as possible; Master Qian Muqing was looking at him anxiously; and brothers Fu Chang and Fu Jian were looking at each other with joy on their faces, as if they were gloating.
This sudden turn of events made the hall silent for a moment.
Helian Longshan's brain was racing, thinking about how to deal with it. He was in a hurry, thinking: It's better to make a mistake, so he said that he smelled the smell of fireworks in the backyard, so he shouted for everyone to pay attention to the firefighting, not intentionally disrupting the order of the examination room.
Thinking of this, Helian Longshan stood up and said to Huang Tai: "Lord Huang, just now when I was endorsing, I smelled the smell of smoke from the fire in the backyard, so I shouted to remind everyone, and please arrange for people to go to the backyard to put out the fire to minimize the loss!"
Huang Tai was taken aback, and asked suspiciously: "Helian Gongzi, there is a fire in the backyard, there is a smell of smoke, why didn't I smell it?"
"Lord Huang, wouldn't it be clear if you sent someone to the backyard to check it out!" Qian Muqing was helping his disciple speak.
"That's right!" Huang Tai hurriedly sent Wang You, who was guarding the door, to take people to the backyard to check.
From Helian Longshan lying on the ground and shouting for firefighting, to getting up and sitting back in his seat, to perceiving the hostile demeanor of Fu Jian, Fu Xiong, Fu Chang, Fu Jian and Lao Confucian, to his reminder to Lord Huang that there was a fire in the backyard and asking him to send someone to put out the fire, it only happened in the electric light and stone fire.
When he was young, Wang You hurriedly ran back from the backyard and said: "Dad, the backyard is really on fire, and the smoke is billowing out, it turns out that the charcoal basin in Xiuniang's sister's house overturned, igniting the housewares in the house, if we don't arrive in time, the consequences are unimaginable." "Wang You has a good impression of Helian Longshan, firstly, because he once saved Yingying and Xiuniang, and secondly, he is from a poor family like himself, and he invisibly has a sympathy for each other, and he deliberately exaggerates the seriousness of the backyard fire, intending to help Helian Longshan.
"Thank you Helian Gongzi!" Huang Tai gave Helian Longshan a deep salute.
In just an instant, the situation of Helian Longshan changed from the embarrassment of being disqualified as a son-in-law to a hero who warned of a fire.
At the beginning, Fu Jian, Fu Xiong, Fu Chang, and Fu Jian wanted to see Helian Longshan's jokes, hoping that the old Confucian would cancel his qualification as a son-in-law, but now he has become a hero who warned of a fire, and he is quite disappointed in his heart.
The three old Confucians had already discussed that they would cancel Helian Longshan's qualification as a son-in-law, but after this reversal, they had to let him continue to endorse.
"Helian Gongzi, please continue to endorse, you still have time. An old Confucian reminded Helian Longshan to continue to endorse.
"Thank you, let me think about it, and see where the back is!"
"Please!"
Helian Longshan took a deep breath of contemplation, and activated the white screen in his brain, but he didn't move for a while, and he didn't memorize a word.
With the previous experience, Fu Jian, Fu Xiong, Fu Chang and Fu Jian became nervous in their hearts, afraid that he would recite the book again as before, knowing that the hourglass had just dropped by half.
The white screen appeared in her head, Xiuniang was lying on the bed, with two white thighs and half of her buttocks exposed, and there were burns on her buttocks and legs, which were red and swollen. A maid was applying ointment to the burned area, and Xiuniang endured the pain and let out a soft moan.
Helian Longshan's heart beat faster, and his face turned red.
Everyone in the hall stared at Helian Longshan, waiting for him to continue to endorse, and suddenly saw that this kid's face suddenly turned red, and he looked shy, and he couldn't help but shake his head secretly, thinking: After all, he is a country boy and has never seen the world. No one would have thought that Helian Longshan saw the ass of his beloved woman, and he couldn't hold it before his cheeks turned red.
Helian Longshan knew that the endorsement was important, he hurriedly adjusted his mentality, and the shape of Xiuniang and the maid became smaller, and the things in Xiuniang's boudoir gradually entered the white screen, and there was a book on the burnt black bookcase, which was "Divination".
A hand appeared on the white screen of Helian Longshan's thoughts, turned the pages of the book to find the place where he had just memorized the book, and then began to recite.
"All body hexagrams should be obedient (multiply) prosperous, and the hexagrams of the body should be mourned (declined). The qi of the cover body hexagram, the hexagram of this (order), the qi of good (multiplied) prosperity, although there is a hexagram of him, it does not hurt. With the mutual change of hexagrams, obedient (multiply) Wang Jiji, if it is not the hexagram of the body, it will die, and the public (lawsuit) will be defeated. If it is not to ask the public (lawsuit) and the illness and occupy it, then the matter of preventing the palace (official) illness ......"
Helian Longshan is not very literate, there is Xiuniang to lead the recitation, of course, it will not be wrong, now it is much more difficult to read it himself, many words are read wrong, he read "multiplication" as "good", "decay" as "mourning", "order" as "today", "lawsuit" read as "public", "official" read as "palace", not only that, because there are many words that do not know, the speed of reading has also dropped significantly, stammering, spitting, such as mangs in the back, such as fish in the throat.
The maid Xiaocui smeared the ointment on Xiuniang, and then cleaned up her things, she suddenly saw the book on the table "Divination Heart" turned a page by herself, which frightened her, she boldly approached the table, looked carefully, but couldn't see any doorway, so she closed the "Divination Heart" at once, and then stood next to the side to observe, wanting to see what was strange about this book.
Just as Helian Longshan read "If you don't ask the public (lawsuit) and the illness and occupy it, then the palace (official) disease will be prevented", suddenly the book was closed, and he couldn't continue to memorize it, while repeating in his mouth "If it is not to ask the public (lawsuit) and the illness and occupy, then the palace (official) disease will be prevented", while using the hand on the white screen to turn the "Divination Heart".
The maid Xiaocui stared at the "Divination Heart" on the desk, and suddenly saw that the book was automatically opened again, and she shouted in fright: "Miss, this book will turn by itself!"
Xiuniang was lying on the bed, and when she heard Xiaocui screaming, she turned her head and said angrily: "Nonsense, how can there be such a ......"
She was about to say, "How can there be such a miracle!" Before the word "miracle" could be uttered, she was stunned, and the book was indeed turning page by page on herself.
"Smack!" and Cui closed the book again and pressed a piece of paperweight on it.
At first, everyone covered their mouths and laughed when they heard Helian Longshan's mistake, but later, when he read the official illness as a palace illness and kept repeating this sentence, everyone finally couldn't help laughing, and the whole hall burst into laughter.
At this time, the sand is exhausted, and the time limit has arrived. Helian Longshan thought to himself: It's over, I'm afraid I'm going to lose to Fu Chang in this question. He began to think about how to defeat the Fu Chang brothers in the later links.
