In Wang Liangtian's respectful and joyful farewell, Zhou Bai left the continuous fields in a carriage and embarked on the road to Bei'an County.

"Young Master Bai, isn't twenty taels too much, we Pingcang belongs to the north and produces livestock, the price of horses and cattle is not high, buy a cow and open two ditches, then the old farmer can earn at least five taels." Not long after driving out, the old way of driving still spoke.

Zhou Bai lifted the curtain in front of the car, sat out and said: "Just let him earn, when there are more acres of land behind me, will more people be willing to farm for me?" ”

The old man was stunned, glanced at Zhou Bai deeply, and said, "I haven't asked Young Master Bai why he likes me, a groom." ”

"Naturally, you have been in the army and have a lot of experience." Zhou Bai was still looking at the topography along the way, and seemed to be very casually authentic.

Soon after the enemy of the grassland was swept out of the northern border of Daxu, it could make a comeback at any time, and Cangshan hid too many restless factors.

Even the caravan with the Zhou flag actually had bandits peeping.

"I thought I hid it well, but the master didn't even see it, and you're not afraid of getting into trouble?"

"Don't be afraid, no, I should still be a little afraid, after all, I didn't even ask your name."

……

The area of Daxu is extremely vast, and the border prefectures and counties are still very large, Zhou Bai set off on February 20, and only checked into the county inn on the evening of February 21.

Although the Zhou family is only a villager, most of them do business in the county seat and county town, and they can't help with big things, so it's okay to help book a room.

Yuelai Inn, in the ground room, the window is bright and clean, and Zhou Bai is very satisfied with looking around.

"Young Master Bai, please forgive me, the Tianzi room has been booked out a month in advance." A young and capable fellow touched his head and said embarrassedly.

"That's good, thank you Fifth Uncle for me." Zhou Bai smiled slightly, and stuffed another piece of broken silver into the man's hand.

"So why don't you rest first? I took him to the guest room below. "The young man was very happy, he was getting more and more energetic, and he was about to move into another separate room with his old style.

On February 27, there will be plenty of time to register and adapt.

In the county town, the Zhou family is not a local snake, and there are no privileges, but Zhou Bai and the two generations have a memory, and some processes will not go wrong.

As usual, it is a personal supply, mutual insurance, and insurance, and the three policy documents have not changed, but the insurance needs to be guaranteed by another person.

Earlier, Zhou Baizhong won the top spot, and a student from the county school took the initiative to come to the door, which has also been perfected.

In the end, with the help of children's papers, Zhou Bai received the test number plate, and was told that there are several locations where meals for candidates from other places will be distributed free of charge, and if there is difficulty, he can also apply for temporary accommodation.

Holding a child's paper and putting it in a general place is more respectful, or it can be trusted to apply for an enlightenment teacher, and there is no substantial benefit.

However, during the period when the county examination is held, the child who takes the examination is a privilege, and the county government and the government at all levels below are not allowed to make the child difficult, and if there is any difficulty and need assistance.

Therefore, like in the general novel, the situation where a rural scholar is embarrassed to take the exam in a big city does not happen, and there is no trace of the splashy or domineering young master on the street.

Zhou Bai went to see the help mentioned by the scribe, the meals were all steamed porridge, and the accommodation place was also a bungalow, and the conditions were extremely poor.

This kind of examination assistance measure is of little use to most children, after all, if they can study the imperial examination, their families will not be too poor, but Zhou Bai also has to admit that it is such small favors that make the bottom readers see a glimmer of hope.

The poor can enter and exit the soldiers, the farmers can raise people, there is an upward channel, and the intensified contradictions can be alleviated.

A few days before the exam, Zhou Bai did not study behind closed doors, but took the initiative to participate in the literary and poetry meetings organized by the candidates in the same period.

After relying on extraordinary conversation and a few short poems, Zhou Bai became famous and became famous in the county town.

These short poems spread to the ears of the people in the county town, and they were all red poems, and some families took out special utensils to test the tone, and finally there was a poem that measured a line of gold.

Although it is still a red poem, it already has a golden poetry atmosphere, if you give more time to compose poetry, maybe there will really be a golden poem.

More people heard about the talent of the top child in Pingcang County, and they invited one after another, and even a few Qinglou also spread rumors that a certain prostitute wanted to spend a good night together.

Of course, Zhou Bai knew that this prostitute was just asking for a poetry name, but he didn't go, and he hadn't done it yet.

The last poem before the examination will be in the Canglan Pavilion thirty miles on the outskirts of Bei'an, this pavilion has a long history, the shape is chic and simple, standing tall, and it is thought to be a building from a distance.

Even the mountain where the Canglan Pavilion sits is also named Pavilion Mountain, but it can be regarded as a mutual achievement, this Pavilion Mountain is backed by a gurgling stream, the mountain peak is beautiful and straight, and the people who come to play are all admired.

Zhou Bai walked up the stairs, looked at the tall pavilion not far away, and silently calculated in his heart.

The paving for fame in the past few days is to let the people who held the Tingshan Poetry Club invite him, and this is a matter of opportunity in memory.

Looking at qi can not observe his own qi, Zhou Bai often looks at himself with the figure on the first page of the book of luck and luck, and since the county test, his foreign luck has been decreasing.

Even if he has the luck brought by the top of the Tongsheng list, there is no trace of red qi in his current foreign luck, and the effect of the first qi luck incense stick is exhausted.

Zhou Bai has inquired that several counties in Bei'an County will have lineages to participate in the county test, plus the county kings of other counties, his luck can only be at the bottom.

The county gas is red, the county gas is yellow, which of those county geniuses is not the son of luck.

A luck incense stick can make him barely get the top of the county test, but it doesn't mean that two can sprint to the top of the county test, and it is difficult to do not have the top ten on the Qingwen list.

Qingwen needs the right time, place and people, and it is difficult to write a topic for you, and the accumulation of Zhou Bai and his two lifetimes cannot guarantee that it will be achieved overnight.

What's more, the talent of a scholar is limited, and it often takes a long time to save up for a long time to write a Qingwen, and he still wants to rely on the impact of Qingwen to raise people to Jinshi, how can he overdraft his talent at will.

Tongsheng and Xiucai will not be involved in the Taoist scriptures, but the township examination will increase the interpretation of the Taoist scriptures, and then the Jinshi will test the Taoist scriptures throughout.

Once a Jinshi begins to learn the Fa, he will often increase his cultivation within a few years, surpassing the Taoist priests who have studied the Dao for decades.

Qingwen, which is contaminated with the content of the Taoist scriptures, can help him practice, and Zhou Bai doesn't want to dry up and fish.

There are many people in the Canglan Pavilion, and the sound of the piano is curling, as if the party is lively.

Zhou Bai didn't go in immediately, but stopped in front of a stone tablet and looked at the record of this Canglan Pavilion.

In the fifteenth year of Daxu Yuanguang, Xingwu Boli Pavilion was here, and the mountain god of the Pavilion was sacrificed, and Sangzi was blessed, and the martial arts were prosperous in Bei'an......

Xingwu Bo, the hero of the opening side, advocating martial arts, and worshipping God in the pavilion want to prosper martial arts in Bei'an County?

Zhou Bai was dumbfounded, but now this Canglan Pavilion has become a gathering place for literati and scholars, and Xingwu has become Xingwen.

"Hey, our Zhou Da poet is here, come on, and introduce you to ......"
