Chapter 10: The Children's Examination

In the blink of an eye, in the afternoon, after sending Li Yuanwai away, Su Yi sat in the house and muttered.

According to what Li Yuanwai said, the adult in his mouth is high and powerful, and his cultivation is quite high, at least he is also a great monk above the Jindan stage, and it is very likely that he is the legendary Yuan Infant Old Monster.

Since the big man had something to ask for, Su Yi also unceremoniously put forward his request.

1. Give him a complete practice of the Ghost Spirit Gate.

2. The method by which the two spiritual root monks of earth and water are transformed into thunder spiritual roots.

Only if these two conditions are met will he take the time to take the imperial examinations in the secular world.

Li Yuanwai deserved to be an old fox, and the two asked him to say that the adult could only agree to one of them, and asked Su Yi's age before leaving.

Su Yi himself didn't know his age, but he estimated that it shouldn't be very big.

Li Yuanwai scratched his head, and left without saying anything more.

After thinking for a while, Su Yi took out another spirit stone and sat cross-legged on the bed to cultivate.

。。。

Five days later, in front of the county government of Qinghe County, there were two people, an old man and a young man.

The old one looked cunning and philistine, and the small one was fluttering in white, thoughtful.

"Is Su Gongzi really confident that he can pass the exam? You must know that others have been studying hard for years before they dare to take the exam, according to what Su Gongzi said, you have not studied in a private school, so it is not too late to take the exam after you are well prepared for the next year. ”

The old man was Li Yuanwai, and the young man in white was Su Yi.

"For the children's exam, three days of preparation time is enough."

In his previous life, Su Yike was a college student at 985 University, and he was considered a lifter in ancient times.

What's more, he has now stepped into the realm of cultivating immortals, and under the nourishment of aura, his ears and eyes are clear, and his mind is clear, which is better than in his previous life.

The imperial examination of the Great Jin Dynasty is similar to that of ancient times in the previous life, and it is divided into the children's examination, the township examination, the meeting examination, and the palace examination.

Among them, the children's examination is an introductory examination, which is divided into three stages: the county examination, the prefectural examination, and the hospital examination.

Candidates should take the exam in the local county and large state capital, and after passing the exam, they can be promoted to a student, which is commonly known as Xiucai.

The content of the exam mainly tests how well the candidate's handwriting is done, as well as the understanding of some classic ancient books.

Don't look at it very simply, just the Qigong body required by the exam, ordinary people have to practice for several years to practice.

The classic ancient books of Dajin, not to mention millions of words, these ancient books require candidates to be able to memorize them backwards.

The font was very simple for Su Yi, and it only took one night to practice.

The remaining two days were spent memorizing those classic ancient books, after all, books with more than one million words, even if Su Yi looked at ten lines, it would take a long time to read.

"I hope Childe can be admitted to Xiucai! The old man did this for the sake of this, but there was no result in running around. What the adult promised, after the son becomes a showman, the old man will hand it over. Li Yuanwai said after a moment of silence.

Su Yi was a little depressed.

What Li Yuanwai said was a complete set of methods for transforming the earth and water spirit roots into thunder spirit roots, including exercises, pill formulas, and auxiliary formations.

However, the adult Li Yuanwai said was only willing to give a little bit, and Su Yi was willing to give everything after he was admitted to Xiucai, Renren, and Jinshi.

And according to what the lord said, the process of transforming into a thunder spirit root is extremely difficult, in addition to the above exercises, formations, and pills, it also requires a certain amount of chance.

However, these are not the things that Su Yi has to think about now.

Su Yi walked slowly towards the county office, where many people were already waiting.

Most of them are young schoolchildren, but there are also some older people who are quite old, and even some of them are gray-haired.

The title of the gold list is the highest life pursuit of ordinary people, once the top student in the exam can be described as a glorious ancestor, and the whole family will become a famous family.

It is that many people have been taking the imperial examinations for the rest of their lives. has been defeated and fought repeatedly, and until his later years, he is still fantasizing about the title of the gold list.

At the entrance of the county office, a square table was placed, and many jade pendants were placed on the table.

Behind the square table, there sat an old man in an official uniform and in good spirits.

Every candidate who takes the children's examination for the first time passes by the square table, his fingertips with a prepared embroidery needle and drops a drop of blood on the jade pendant.

The jade pendant is a kind of jade pendant that recognizes the owner, and it will be the candidate's admission ticket in the future, which is engraved with the candidate's name, age, place of origin, and so on.

With this admission ticket, you can completely eliminate all kinds of cheating methods such as impersonation and substitute exams.

After Su Yi received a jade pendant, he followed the team and walked into the examination room.

The exam room is an airtight room.

According to Li Yuanwai, this ordinary-looking room is a magic weapon for a cultivator, which was specially built for the examination in the Great Jin Dynasty.

As long as you are in this magic weapon, no matter how powerful you are, you can't cheat.

As long as ordinary people cheat, no matter what method they use, they will be teleported outside the examination room by the magic weapon and immediately lose their qualification for the exam.

And immortal cultivators can't use a little bit of mana in the magic weapon, nor can they use all kinds of spiritual eyes and spiritual eyes, which puts an end to all the possibility of cheating.

Sitting on the wooden table and handing out the test papers, Su Yi began to write hard.

Because it is an entry-level exam, the questions are not difficult.

However, some young schoolchildren were at a loss, and some candidates handed in blank papers.

After the exam, just as Su Yi was about to leave, the invigilator suddenly announced that the next exam was about to start, and those who were willing to participate could stay and continue the exam.

Su Yi was a little puzzled, so he stepped forward to ask.

It turned out that in addition to the literary classics, the Dajin exam also tested mathematics, that is, arithmetic.

From the construction of houses and cities to the number of yin and yang, a certain amount of arithmetic ability is required.

This math exam is an additional exam and may or may not be taken.

But if you pass the exam, it will have a bonus effect on the township exam, the general exam, and even the palace exam in the future.

Su Yi studied science in his previous life, and he was quite interested in arithmetic in this world, so he stayed to take the arithmetic exam.

However, the questions sent down made Su Yi quite bored, and the tests were all about some elementary school knowledge from his previous life, which was not difficult at all.

It only took one-tenth of the exam time to complete all the questions and hand in the paper first.

After the exam, Su Yi went straight back to his residence.

Exam results will not be released until three days later.

。。。

In the next month, Su Yi took the prefectural examination and the hospital examination again.

The questions are not difficult, Su Yi passed the test very easily, but today's question made Su Yi feel a little funny.

“。。。 Therefore, the folding moment, the hook wide three, the stock repair four, the corner six... ”

This question says that a right triangle has three and four sides and six chords.

According to the Pythagorean theorem, the chord length should be five.

Su Yi didn't know if the paper was copied by mistake, or if the questioner was not at home in mathematics, so he made a mistake, so he said: "Sir, the student found that there may be a mistake in one of the questions. ”

The invigilator and the invigilator of the township examination are the same person, it is the old man who was sitting in front of the county office, handing out jade pendants, and was in good spirits, and stood up from his seat when he heard the words: "Nonsense, this test paper was issued by an official of the Ministry of Industry of the DPRK, how could something go wrong." ”

Su Yi stood up and argued: "It is indeed a mistake, the student can guarantee it." ”

The invigilator was so angry that he blew his beard and glared: "You can't teach it, you are a candidate who hasn't even finished the children's exam, what guarantee do you get?" ”

While the two were arguing, a middle-aged candidate sitting in the corner also said softly: "Mr. Zhang, the question is indeed wrong. ”

The old gentleman surnamed Zhang followed the prestige and recognized that the person who spoke was Carpenter Li from the county office.

The children's examination did not restrict the participation of some officials in the county government.

These petty officials have no fame, and they can only be promoted if they have obtained fame.

Carpenter Li specializes in building houses, so he is proficient in arithmetic, and the old man surnamed Zhang can not believe the words of others, but he still believes in Carpenter Li's words.

So, is that really wrong question? This matter is not trivial, you wait here after the exam, and let the old man report before making a decision. The old man surnamed Zhang said after a moment of silence.

After the exam, the old man surnamed Zhang hurriedly went out, and when he came back, he respectfully followed behind a middle-aged official wearing an official uniform and a mustache.

"Who's talking gibberish in the exam room?" As soon as the middle-aged official entered the examination room, he reprimanded loudly.

"These are the two candidates." The old man surnamed Zhang pointed to Su Yi and the carpenter Li and said.

Seeing that the middle-aged official was full of authority, Carpenter Li hurriedly lowered his head in fright, not daring to speak.

Su Yi stood up and said, "The student didn't talk nonsense, the exam questions did go wrong." ”

The middle-aged official laughed and said, "This official sees that you don't even have hair, so you dare to talk nonsense here?" People often say that there is no hair on the mouth, and the work is not firm, this kid doesn't know the height of the sky, why are you such a bastard? ”

The old man surnamed Zhang was reprimanded, his face was red, and he couldn't speak for a long time.

Su Yi said lightly: "Wrong is wrong, right is right, what does it have to do with age?" ”

The middle-aged official looked disdainful: "You said that the topic was wrong, how can you prove it?" ”

Su Yi smiled slightly: "Proof is proof." ”

After that, he asked the old man surnamed Zhang for a blank piece of paper, and used a brush to prove the Pythagorean theorem on the paper.

The middle-aged official's face was first arrogant, then curious, and finally full of disbelief.

"Your Excellency's surname is Su Mingyi, right? I didn't expect that at the age of fourteen, he would be proficient in arithmetic, which really impressed the official. The middle-aged official said with a serious face.

Su Yi thought to himself: What is this, I also studied advanced mathematics in college, and the Pythagorean theorem is just junior high school knowledge.

The middle-aged official was silent for a moment, and then said: "I can't hide it, this question is the teacher's teacher, the current Ministry of Works, the family teacher recently returned to his hometown and province, I heard that there is a child student test, and this question was specially proposed." ”
