Chapter 7 Do your best, obey the destiny of heaven

Su Yi came to the door of the Privy Council, looked at the scene in front of her, and was startled. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

The street in front of the Privy Council was bustling, and the people who came to take the examination were one after another, almost from the entrance of the examination room, there were old people in their twilight years, and there were teenagers similar to Su Yi, and most of them were young people in their twenties and thirties. Su Yi took a cursory look and felt that there were no less than three thousand people, and he was suddenly surprised.

"In ancient China, the literacy rate of the common people was extremely low, and in a large county of 50,000 people, 200 people could take the county exam every year. But I didn't expect the literacy rate of the people in the Bingfeng Continent to be so high, the population of this Sushui County is only 70,000, and there are 3,000 people participating in the county exam in a year, almost every 20 people have a reference, which is really amazing!"

Su Yi suddenly felt a huge pressure and had to take deep breaths to adjust her mentality.

However, when Su Yi thought about it, she felt a little relieved.

In the Bingfeng Continent, learning the art of war can obtain real killing power! After the military rank is high, even the faces of the court officials can be ignored, and they can truly be self-reliant and self-reliant, so even poor peasants will save money desperately to let their children go to school. Even if you can only become a martial artist, your physical fitness will be greatly improved, and you will be able to do better in any job.

And it is the credit of Confucius that allows the people at the bottom to go to school. At that time, Confucius put forward the concept of 'education without class', and popularized education to the lowest level of the people. It can be said that Confucianism is the pioneer of enlightenment and education. Later, the military family learned from Confucianism, improved the private school system to the college system, set up a privy council to manage the military academies in various places, and reduced the fees to a level that was acceptable to even the poorest people, which popularized the holy way of the military family to the whole human race. ”

"Look, Zhuge Qing is here!"

At this time, I don't know who shouted such a sentence, Su Yi immediately looked behind her, and saw a young man in a green robe walking like a star and moon, surrounded by the crowd. Su Yi took a closer look at this person's appearance, and only felt that he was young and old, and he did not have the immaturity of a young man at all. His eyes are deep, like ink, and his eyebrows are straight, like the barrel of a pen, and you can feel at a glance that he is full of knowledge and overflowing with knowledge.

This person's demeanor is steady, no less than a middle-aged man, and Su Yi immediately recognized him as the legendary "Zhuge Qing".

And Zhuge Qing is only fourteen years old, and his height is even taller than the sixteen-year-old Su Yi and Wu Yu, and he has broad shoulders and a round waist, and he is obviously extraordinary.

"Alas, when I first saw Zhuge Qing, I felt in my heart that he was a young talent, and he really lived up to his reputation. Su Yi sighed.

"I heard that when Zhuge Qing was four years old, the Zhuge family invited a national scholar to be his teacher and assist him day and night, so he has this achievement. Tong Xi sighed, "Think about it, how noble is the identity of the national scholar? In order to invite this national scholar to teach Zhuge Qing, the Zhuge family can be said to have poured the strength of the whole clan! Zhuge Qing's genius name is well deserved, and I am afraid that he is the 'head of the case' in this county examination." ”

"Every time I hear about this Zhuge Qing rumor, I feel very disdainful, thinking that I will not lose to him. Wu Yu said, "But what I saw with my own eyes today completely dispelled my plan to compete with this Zhuge Qing, and in my heart, I am not as good as him!"

Su Yi listened to the comments of the two, and felt that this Zhuge Qing was as dazzling as the sun, but he was gloomy and irrelevant, and sighed in his heart that people were more popular than people.

It's just that Su Yi noticed that as soon as Zhuge Qing appeared, he immediately attracted many students to come and set a close relationship, who doesn't want to have a good relationship with the future head of the case? And Zhuge Qing himself did not refuse the compliments around him, smiling, and responding one by one.

Although Zhuge Qing looked like an idle cloud and a clear breeze on the surface, and the ancient well had no waves, Su Yi could always faintly see a faint smug color between Zhuge Qing's eyebrows.

"After all, it's a young man's family. Su Yi said in her heart.

The crowd slowly lined up, and Su Yi finally moved to the door of the examination room.

The gate of the examination room is more than five feet wide and very majestic. A guard stood every three feet at the door, and the candidates lined up for inspection before passing through the middle of the two guards to enter the examination room. Su Yi originally thought that these soldiers would manually check their resumes and bookcases, but when it was his turn, these guards didn't do anything, just took a quick glance inside Su Yi's baggage, nodded and signaled to pass.

Su Yizheng was surprised, and stepped into the door, but suddenly felt that the air around him became solemn, and suddenly there seemed to be a murderous intention, and he almost wanted to suffocate. A wisp of strange energy seemed to penetrate Su Yi's three souls and seven spirits, and Su Yi only felt that everything was exposed to this wisp of energy.

At this time, the Heavenly Destiny Star in Su Yi's mind flashed, releasing a ray of silver light, which immediately eliminated the repeated energy. After that, Su Yi only felt a heat in her chest, and when she looked down, the resume she carried with her in her arms turned into a touch of golden light, turned into a butterfly, and disappeared into the depths of the Privy Council.

From the moment he entered the door, the strange energy that lingered around his body slowly dissipated, and Su Yi regained his freedom.

"I see, this is the automatic inspection procedure of the martial arts, which can not only collect resumes, but also go straight to the hearts of candidates. If the examinee tries to cheat, he will definitely be a thief, and he will not be able to hide the supervision of the Privy Council in any case, no wonder the doorman can be so lax. ”

Su Yi was thinking about it, when he suddenly heard a mournful cry behind him, and followed the voice, only to see a candidate fall to the ground, foaming at the mouth, unconscious, while the pen holder in his bookcase slowly floated, and a paper cheat sheet was pulled out of the pen holder, and then it was stirred by invisible energy, and instantly turned into dust.

This is what happens to intended cheaters!

Two guards in the examination room quickly walked over and carried the candidate away. Others seem to be commonplace, doing their own thing as usual, and only some new candidates point fingers at them with disdain.

Su Yi shook her head and began to line up in the Privy Council Square, looking up, she saw that the sky above the square was clear, faintly surrounded by golden light, and a bowl-shaped transparent shield was protecting the Privy Council examination room to ensure that the candidates would not be disturbed by the external environment.

The square is more than 50 zhang long and wide, and it is extremely vast. There are rows of examination rooms built at the back of the square, and on the high platform in front of it, there is a statue of Sun Sheng, almost ten zhang high, higher than the city wall in the distance, holding a military book and bamboo slips, and the temperament is extraordinary.

At the foot of Sun Sheng's statue, there is a three-foot-high bronze tripod, three pillars and two feet high incense, and white smoke is slowly emitting.

In front of the steps on the high platform, the three examiners stood upright, and they could be recognized by looking at their official robes, which were the county magistrate of Sushui County, the Privy Council member stationed in Sushui County, and the commander of Sushui County. At the foot of the steps, dozens of officials stood on either side.

Every city above the county level has a Privy Council, and each Privy Council covers a vast area, divided into several areas, including examination rooms, school grounds, sacrificial areas, affairs areas, etc., which are responsible for the military education of a place and assist the military affairs of the Taishou.

The Privy Council was detached from the state system and was not subject to the orders of the imperial court or any officials, but was only under the unified control of the general Privy Council in the capital. The Imperial Court is the highest institution of the state, but the Privy Council is the highest body of the human race! No matter how the state changes, the Privy Council will be passed on forever. The soldiers of the world are the first to obey the orders of the Privy Council, and only then accept the dispatch of the state.

In charge of the Privy Council are the two old Yuanrongs of Chen and Wei today, and the title of the position is "Yuan Cheng".

Seeing that all the candidates had entered and stood up, the captain opened his mouth and shouted "Silence", and the sound spread throughout the entire square, and even Su Yi in the back row could hear it clearly, like the sound of drums and horns vibrating in his ears.

Su Yi was amazed in her heart, and immediately recalled what she had learned in her life, and then she thought: "This is a natural ability that can only be learned by the rank of 'pedestrian': 'Drum and horn in unison'! As long as you use it, the mouthpiece will instantly turn into a drum horn, which can spread the sound far away, which is very convenient when commanding the three armies." ”

This commander is at least a pedestrian or above!

Subsequently, the court officials turned around, bowed to the statue of Sun Sheng, and shouted "Xie Xiansheng gives all people a chance to live", and then all the officials and candidates repeated the salute.

Finally, the county order recites the "Sacrifice to the Sages of Wuchengwang Temple", and finally reads out the examination rules.

Most of the candidates have memorized the rules of the exam, but Su Yi and other candidates who took the county exam for the first time felt miserable: the county exam had to be taken for one day, the essay test in the morning, and the noon break, but they were not allowed to leave, and they could only wait in the examination room for the examiner to select the candidates who passed the exam. Those who pass will be read their names and will gather on campus to prepare for the afternoon martial arts test.

Su Yi thought: "This is only the first county exam, it is said that the more advanced hospital exams and township exams, one exam is three days and two nights, eating, drinking, lazing and sleeping in the examination room, which is an extremely test of the willpower of the candidates." ”

After the county magistrate finished reading the examination rules, all the candidates went to the marking hall by the square one by one to receive the test papers and number plates under the command.

Su Yi got the number plate, which said 276, and then found her examination room.

The examination rooms at the back of the square are very narrow, only one arm wide, one side is connected together, sitting north and facing south, surrounded by walls on three sides. There is a half-foot-wide passage between the two rows of examination rooms, and the invigilator patrols the passageway, and when you look up from the examination room, you can see the wall behind the other row of examination rooms.

At the door of the examination room is a board, which is used as a desk, and you can enter the examination room by lifting the board. There is a slightly lower wooden board embedded between the walls on the left and right sides of the examination room, which is very simple as a chair.

Su Yi sat down on the wooden board in the examination room, put the burden beside her, and spread the test paper on the board, with Su Yi's name and the serial number of the examination room written on the envelope, but it can't be opened yet, and the exam will not start unifies until the gong sounds.

Su Yi sighed at the simplicity of the ancient examination room, took a deep breath, and motivated herself in her heart: "Do your best, obey the destiny of heaven, I must be admitted to the martial arts!"

Thinking of Su Yuan's ugly face, thinking of Su Shi'er's ten-year kindness, and thinking of the strange feeling of using a trick for the first time on Jianmen Mountain, Su Yi's desire to gain fame became even stronger.

Not long after, the gong sounded for the opening of the exam, Su Yi opened her eyes and slowly unsealed the scroll
