Chapter 57 The Mountain Chief Reads the Papers
The whole exam needs to be tested for a whole day, and there is naturally something to eat in the middle, which does not have to worry about the candidates, and at noon, the college cafeteria sent someone to send each candidate a steamed bun pastry, one for each person, everyone eats in their seats, and after eating, continue the exam, during which someone wants to give a compliment, then the deacon will accompany them.
If you are a person who has the intention to cheat, this time is undoubtedly the best time, after all, it is not a formal scientific examination, there is still a great chance to cheat, at least now between each candidate, the position is not far away, and there is no examination shed between each other, it is not difficult to peek.
Zhu Ming, who was sitting next to Jiang Yun, took advantage of the opportunity to eat pastries and rest, while a pair of eyes began to drip around, and from time to time glanced at the classmates sitting next to him, Jiang Yun's desktop was naturally not missed by him, but when he saw the other party's desktop, he couldn't help but curse, this nerd is really ruthless.
It turned out that Jiang Yun's scroll had been covered with manuscript paper in accordance with the requirements of the invigilator, and he couldn't see it at all unless he had a perspective eye.
Jiang Yun unhurriedly finished eating the steamed buns and pastries sent, and hurried up to continue to think about the question, everything seemed to be going well, and there were not too many bumps and jams, I don't know how long it took, an essay was sprinkled, about a thousand words were written, and it was already written to the end, and it was written. At the end, he added the famous sentence of the later generations that he had already thought of, which was regarded as the finishing touch.
After Wencheng, Jiang Yun breathed a sigh of relief, put down the wolf pen in his hand, drank a few sips of tea, looked up at the hourglass above the main hall, and looked at the time, up to now, about three and a half hours have passed, and there is still about one and a half hours before the end of the exam.
After resting for a while, he began to check the article he wrote, and polished the text again, so that it was finalized, and on the whole, he felt good about this article, as for whether it was enough to be a worm-shaped article, he couldn't see it, and he couldn't be sure, but he had a score in his heart, and it should be the same.
After the finalization, he began to follow the draft, word by word formal transcription to the exam paper, recently his willow calligraphy writing more proficient and regular, at least from the calligraphy point of view, is completely qualified, will only increase the examiner's impression score, will not reduce the score.
After transcribing this essay, the exam is almost complete, except for the remaining test poem on the exam paper.
Back to the front, and carefully read the title of this trial poem, "The closure of winter is not solid, and the long grass and trees of spring and summer are not lush", and made a five-character and four-rhyme poem.
Seeing this topic, Jiang Yun was still blind for a while, and he couldn't find a clue for a while. But no matter how difficult it is to write, this trial poem is also to be pieced together, even if it is a limerick poem, how much is a little scored, if you don't write, leave this blank, the impression of the examiner is poor, and it is not impossible to meet impatient, more demanding examiners, and even fall down.
The predecessor of this body was not good at writing poetry, which was a weakness in this regard, and now Jiang Yun basically knows nothing about writing poetry, and it is completely at the level of limerick poetry. Although he can copy poems, he really can't think of one that fits the topic, and if he copies a poem that is not related to the topic, it will only be self-defeating and leave a bad impression on the examiner.
There is no other way to think of it, he can only be honest, search for dry intestines, and try to piece together this poem, and he does not expect to be brilliant in it, causing the examiner to be amazed, and he can just fool the past so-so.
When he was meditating here and searching for dry intestines, he heard a commotion, and when he looked up, he saw that someone had already gotten up and handed in the papers, and the first one to hand in the papers was none other than Lu Wenpeng.
The first person to hand in the paper in advance can always attract enough attention, as well as the envy of all students, some people like this feeling of being in the limelight, the previous monthly exams, quarterly exams, the first to hand in the papers, most of them were also covered by these people sitting in the front row, but this Lu Wenpeng has never liked the first to hand in the papers, today he is unusual, the first to hand in the papers, obviously seeing that Song Ximing, the head of the academy today, is personally in charge, and intends to show his face in front of the other party.
Seeing that someone handed in the paper in advance, Song Ximing, the mountain chief sitting in front of the main hall, deliberately turned his head to look at the hourglass next to him, which was worth four hours, and said that it was not bad, and the amount of questions in this set of papers was not small, and it could be completed an hour in advance, and he could be regarded as a talented and agile person, but he didn't know the quality of the volume.
Lu Wenpeng handed the paper in front of the mountain chief Song Ximing, and then stood silently aside, waiting for the other party's on-the-spot marking, which is an unwritten practice in the academy examination room, if you are the first person to hand in the paper, you can get the opportunity to read the paper on the spot.
Sometimes in the county examination, the county magistrate is interested, and he will also mark the paper on the spot, of course, this situation does not exist in the higher-level scientific examination, after all, this practice is irregular, and there is always unfairness.
Seeing that there was some commotion in the field, and some restless people began to look around again, Song Ximing shouted "Silence", and his majestic gaze swept over the field, and the hall was completely quiet again.
After shocking the slightly commotioned students below, Song Ximing picked up the scroll in front of him and read it slowly.
Song Ximing knew that the talented man of the West Pavilion in front of him was naturally handy in doing these topics, and he would have been able to get it by hand, otherwise he would not be the first to hand in the papers.
Try to post the poem, the question is also swept away, looking at the level, he nodded secretly, what he wants to see is the article.
At this moment, he naturally used the technique of looking at qi, and at a glance, he saw that the text on the scroll was full of energy, showing short and thick coats of arms, and those coats of arms were strangely green, yellow, and red, constantly flashing, like wriggling insects.
There is no doubt that this is an insect-shaped article, and in terms of literary style, it is colorful and colorful, which is already the atmosphere of the middle grade in the insect-shaped article.
He carefully read the text again, and after reading the whole article, he put down the volume, raised his head, showed a few smiles on his face, and said with undisguised approval: "Yes, it is a good article, Wen Peng, it seems that your talent has grown again." ”
Lu Wenpeng was not arrogant, bowed down and said: "The mountain chief has won the award, and the students are ashamed." ”
Song Ximing smiled, made a rare joke, and said: "You don't have to be ashamed here, you can go, I guarantee you the top ten this time." ”
Lu Wenpeng thanked the mountain chief with a smile, and then walked straight out of the hall under the envious eyes of everyone.
After Lu Wenpeng, there were students who went up in advance to hand in the papers, and it was rare for the mountain chief to come to the examination room in person this time, and read the papers on the spot, and people with a heart were unwilling to let go of this opportunity to show their faces in front of the mountain chief and listen to the teachings.
Song Ximing did not disappoint these people who handed in the papers in advance, as long as someone handed in the papers, he would read the papers on the spot, but not everyone's papers could enter his eyes, after he took the papers, the first thing he read was the essay, if he saw that there was no insect-shaped heraldry, he would not look at it more, and he did it hastily.
Only when he sees the insect-shaped coat of arms, he will take a closer look, and if he is satisfied, he will give the top ten comments on the spot, although it is not the final result, but it is also eight or nine not far from ten.
And by now, he had seen four or five insect-shaped articles, all of which, without exception, were the volumes of talented scholars sitting in the front row.
He was naturally happy to see these insect-shaped articles, but these people were already the best in his heart, and these people wrote insect-shaped articles, which did not surprise him much, what he hoped to see was that other students could perform, and if there was a dark horse swept out, it would be even better.
At this time, the seats in front of them were almost empty, and most of those who were outstanding had already submitted their papers in advance, and only one person was still sitting there.
Min Wei has already completed the answer sheet at this moment, if it is usual, when he sees that there is still time left, he will habitually check the whole article again and polish the text, but now, he is a little anxious, just because there is no one around him now, it seems that he is sitting alone and is extremely conspicuous and dazzling, he seems to see that there are already strange eyes looking at him, which gives him an invisible pressure.
What's more, today is the mountain chief who came to the examination room in person, how can he drop the chain to show weakness. So after completing the answer sheet, he didn't spend any more effort checking it, and got up and went forward to hand in the paper.
When he stepped forward to hand in the paper, there was already a student in front of him who had already handed in the paper, Song Ximing was carefully reading the other party's paper, which allowed him to read it so carefully, there is no doubt that this paper is good, it should have written an insect-shaped article.
Min Wei could only wait behind, and at this time, a few more students came forward to hand in the papers, and there were already a lot of people who handed in the papers, and Jia Mengchen next to him came over, collected the papers of these people together, waved his hand and said, "Okay, let's go back first." ”
Hearing his words, knowing that he couldn't get the mountain chief to read the paper on the spot, although everyone was a little regretful, they still handed in the paper and left the hall according to their words.
After these people left, Jia Mengchen deliberately took out a person's scroll to see, it was Min Wei's scroll, and when he unfolded the scroll to take a look, his face couldn't help but change, on that scroll, what he saw was a chaotic and disorderly atmosphere, and he didn't see the expected insect-shaped coat of arms.
