The candidate on the other side was still talking nonsense about "Destiny is not in me, three years and three years", but Wei Chen had already rolled up his sleeves and started working.

Open the test box, use the oilcloth you just bought as the top, and then open the oilpaper umbrella, and the rain will not leak in. Then he hung a curtain over the door, so that the wind could not blow in.

Once these are ready, it is no longer a question of what rain is not raining.

There is no leakage of wind and rain, Wei Chen lit the charcoal stove again, and after a while, the damp house became warm.

After his body was warmed, Wei Chen's stomach began to rumble again, waiting for admission, going through a search, and sorting out the number house, this set of sets, the morning was almost over, Wei Chen didn't eat anything except breakfast!

Wei Chen took out a small copper stove from the examination box, put it on the charcoal fire, and boiled millet porridge.

This copper furnace was also newly purchased at the Supply Institute, and although it was not as exquisite as the one originally prepared, it was barely usable.

After a while, the aroma of porridge wafted out of the copper furnace, Wei Chen put a bowl of hot millet porridge, and ate dim sum and side dishes into his stomach, his forehead sweated slightly, and he felt much more comfortable physically and mentally.

The candidate opposite Wei Chen saw that Wei Chen, who was also assigned to the rain number, not only did not have the slightest frustration and complaints, but also lived a good life, and couldn't help twitching the corners of his mouth, turned his face sideways and whispered: "What a fool!" ”

Not long after Wei Chen had eaten and drunk, the cloud board sounded, and the exam officially began.

The scribe threw the sealed test paper through the small window in front of the door, and Wei Chen immediately picked up the paper and read the questions.

According to the usual practice, among the three township examinations, the first examination examines the Four Books and Five Classics is the most important, and among the three questions and four questions of the Five Classics in the first session, the first four books question is the most important.

Therefore, many candidates with poor physical strength will work hard to spell the first question, only to make the first question of the time to be outstanding, and then to pass by.

Of course, Wei Chen doesn't have to worry about this, he has practiced channeling techniques all year round, and his strength and explosion may not be much stronger than ordinary people, but his physical strength and endurance are far beyond ordinary people, and it is more than enough to cope with the township test that lasts for nine days.

At this time, Wei Chen slowly opened the test paper, and the first question of the township test appeared in front of him.

"Neutral and unbiased, strong and pretentious."

As expected, the township test is full of big questions, and there are no strange interception questions in the children's test.

The question in front of me is from "The Mean", and the meaning is very simple, that is, a gentleman should abide by the golden mean and be impartial.

Wei Chen smiled, and immediately put pen to paper: "Since ancient times, the rule of emperors and the way of sages have been nothing more than one middle." ”

After a pause, Wei Chen picked up the tip of his pen and continued to hold his breath and write: "The middle one, it is appropriate for the world to be eternal, but the crowd is respectfully unable to stand on its own,......,......, and it is also able to win the selfish desire of material desires, so it is strong to win." ”

The article of more than 1,000 words is not only tightly matched with the title, but also the rhyme of the sages, which not only learns from the ancient literary context, but also shows the novelty of the current text.

Ancient and modern are fused into one furnace, tempering a majestic style of writing like an unbridled ocean, which is the result of Wei Chen's hard work in the past four years.

After finishing the first article, Wei Chen put down his pen and spit out a breath of turbidity: "Raising people's fame has entered my pocket!" ”

Although he only got the first one in the three township exams, and although Wei Chen only finished the first four books of the seven four books and five scripture questions, he just has this self-confidence, just with the article in front of him, it is worth a meritorious name!

Install the latest version. 】

The next two four-book questions, one from "University" and the other from "Mencius", are all big questions with rules and regulations.

Wei Chen was in an extremely good state at this time, and these two articles were also written very smoothly, and in three hours, he completed all the three questions and four book questions.

After writing the three questions, it was already dark, Wei Chen asked the officers and soldiers guarding the door for the number plate, went to the thatched house, and when he came back, he set up a copper stove and cooked something to fill his stomach.

After a day's admission and exams, and living in this small examination room where his legs can't be stretched, no matter how good Wei Chen's physical strength is, he will inevitably be a little tired.

At night, Wei Chen didn't do any more questions, but laid out the trumpet board, put on the futon, and fell asleep in the quilt.

The charcoal fire in the house was continuous, warm as spring, and his body was covered with a precious silk quilt, Wei Chen slept very comfortably.

After sleeping until he woke up naturally, on the second day, Wei Chen stretched his waist, opened his eyes and saw the officers and soldiers who were invigilating, and then remembered that he was still trying in the Gongyuan!

Raising his eyes to see the sky, it was already three poles in the sun, Wei Chen couldn't help but blush, quickly packed up the futon, restored the bed board to a table eucalyptus, and took out the Five Classics inscription and wrote it.

There are a total of 20 questions in the Five Classics, which look dense and very scary, but Wei Chen's book "Shangshu" only needs to choose four of them to do.

The first question is taken from an article in "Wine Message", entitled "The father is thin, the farmer father is protective, and the macro father is determined." ”

The wine is the prohibition issued by the Duke of Zhou, and the father in the title refers to Sima, the farmer father refers to Situ, and the father Hong refers to Sikong.

Wei Chen is well-read and strong, and he has learned to be rich and rich, and he has already broken open and chewed up the "Book of Shang", and doing such a topic is as simple as eating and drinking.

The same is true for the next three Shangshu questions, just by looking at the questions, Wei Chen has seven or eight ideas for solving the questions in his mind.

It only took half a day to make four articles about the Pharaoh and flowers.

After drying the ink and looking at the finished article, Wei Chen couldn't help but nod with satisfaction.

Even Zhuang Jun thinks that Wei Chen's understanding of Shangshu is no longer below him, and the difference is just the polishing of time and experience.

Wei Chen really didn't think that there would be any candidates in this examination room who could compare with him in Shangshu skills.

After making slight revisions and checking that there were no errors, Wei Chen neatly transcribed all seven articles onto the main volume.

There is a special copyist to transcribe the test papers in the township examination to prevent candidates and examiners from secretly communicating with each other before the examination and making marks on the test papers.

Therefore, how well a candidate writes has no impact on the score.

Of course, if the handwriting is so sloppy that even the copyist can't read clearly, that's a different matter.

When Wei Chen put down his pen, it was just noon, and only half of the three-day exam time of the first exam had passed.

Looking around, the other candidates were either meditating or burying their heads in writing, but Wei Chen was the first one in the nearby number building to finish writing.

Wei Chen carefully checked the roll several times before and after, until it was dark, and finally knocked on the door and shouted to the officers and soldiers outside: "Submit the paper!" ”

Hearing the sound of Wei Chen banging on the door, the candidates on all sides looked over, and the invigilators also asked in surprise: "It's only the second day of the exam, and you have to hand in the papers?" ”

Wei Chen nodded affirmatively.

The officers and soldiers did not dare to slack off, and hurriedly called the examinee to come, and the examinee confirmed with Wei Chen again, and then took the test paper handed by Wei Chen from the small window.

After a cursory glance, the examiner saw that the seven major questions were all written, nodded and said, "No matter what the article is, at least it is all written." Let him out. ”

"Yes, sir." The officers and soldiers opened the door according to the order and released Wei Chen from the number house.

Wei Chen stretched, packed his things, and walked away, attracting countless surprised eyes as he passed by the rows of examination rooms.

"Someone is here?"

At this time, most of the candidates in the other examination rooms have only written the first or second question of the Five Classics, and some of them have not even started to write the Five Classics questions, and they are struggling with the first three questions and four book questions!
