This barracks, which was temporarily requisitioned as an examination room, covers an area of more than three acres, the ground is paved with a whole piece of green bricks, tightly fitted, there is not a single weed in between, and there are all pear wood tables and chairs in the field, each table is far apart, even if the eyesight is good, it is difficult to peep at the answer sheet of others.

From being in charge of the examination tour to being responsible for placing the four treasures of the study, from being responsible for checking the identity of the candidates to checking the candidates' belongings, all the affairs are done by the white-clothed officials of the Holy Inquisition.

Su Wen came to the door and handed over the exam card in his arms, the white-clothed official just glanced at it hurriedly, and then said, "Yes, let's go in!"

It's not because the qualification review of the state exam is so easy and simple, but because of the huge Huizhou, who doesn't know Su Wen?

Please thank you, Su Wen stepped in, quickly walked to his seat and sat down, and couldn't help but look up at the bronze bell hanging in the air.

That's the legendary Chill Clock.

The examination of the state examination, of course, is the examination of literary talent and wisdom, but this does not mean that candidates can rely on stimulating the talent in the body to answer the questions, all candidates must take the exam without the support of talent, otherwise in the first poetry examination school, those candidates who opened the poetry and lexicon will not be more profitable than those who open other literary positions?

So from a certain point of view, the state exam gives students a relatively fair opportunity to compete with each other.

What's more, in the second essay test, if the candidates use their written articles to stimulate their talents in the sea of writing, or attract talents, the scene will undoubtedly become chaotic, and it will affect others' answers.

This is where the gas clock comes in.

As a legendary fifth-order treasure, the town of Qi Zhong is talent, and the obstruction is heaven and earth.

However, those who are below the bachelor's degree, in front of the gas clock, can neither stimulate their own talents, nor can they communicate with heaven and earth to attract talents, and the lock Wenteng who can imprison Wenhai's position belongs to the same restricted Wenbao, and even many people and Hanlin, and even the big names of bachelors, are also coveted by it.

As the candidates rushed in, the examination room finally ushered in three examiners.

Among the three examiners, the person on the left is the lord of Huizhou Mansion, wearing a silver crown and an official robe, with a solemn expression, and the person on the right is the monarch of the Holy Inquisitor, whose face is red, and he is wearing a black python robe representing the highest level of the State Holy Inquisition, with a silver belt around his waist, and his long black hair seems to be pulled in a bun at random, with a black jade hairpin inserted on it.

And who can be in front of the dignified state lord and the lord of the court, look calm and sit on the throne?

Of course, it's the people of Hongming Academy.

Of course, the significance of the state examination is not simply to open the academic positions for the major literati students, but also to select the pillars of the country, but more importantly, it is to select talents for the academy and the human race!

The first examiner, apart from the academicians of the college, who else dares to take the responsibility?

However, this person is not the academician Liu who has a friendship with Su Wen, but a person who surprises the candidates even more.

Because this academician is a woman.

Although all ways of literature and Taoism are fair, and there is no difference between men and women in the choice of literary position and talent, in the final analysis, this world is still a world where men are superior to women, and most of the literati are male.

Don't look at the many talented women around Su Wen, such as Liu Shishi, such as Mu Xi, and Ning Qingbing, and even Su Wen is ready to let Su Yu take the city exam after he reaches the age of 15, but in comparison, on the road to sainthood, the ratio of men and women is still very exaggerated.

Take the thousands of literati students who took the state examination in Huizhou today, for example, of which there are only less than 200 women!

This is already an exaggeration given the ratio of men and women in the world's total population that is almost the same.

But at this time, the academician of the academy who was in the middle of the main examination seat turned out to be a woman!

It was just that there was not much time left for the candidates to be shocked, and they didn't even have time to speculate whether that person was the famous Master Luo in the academy before they heard the second bell ring.

This is a signal for the issuance of exam papers.

The test paper was opened on the spot, and the crimson light faintly rising from the seal showed its difficulty, and it was indeed the answer sheet of the state exam.

The white-clothed officials of the Holy Inquisition distributed the examination papers in front of everyone, and immediately there was a sound of reading, like a heavy rain falling rapidly.

Of course, there are also people who don't rush to browse the exam papers, and those who do so are either too arrogant or really confident.

For example, Sun Hu is staring at his eyes like copper bells, constantly moving the joints and muscles of his wrists, shoulders and neck, as well as his waist and abdomen, and he does not look like a literati who grinds and holds a pen, but like a warrior who is about to set foot on the martial arts field.

Another example is Chai Nan, who came all the way from Yan Kingdom, but he closed his eyes gently, as if he was recuperating his spirits, and his breathing slowly slowed down, becoming longer and longer.

As for Su Wen, he was calmly checking whether there were no mistakes in the pen, ink, paper and inkstone on the table, there was no slightest nervousness between his eyebrows, he didn't need to move his body, he didn't need to adjust his breathing, and even at this moment, his mind was thinking about what the meal in the examination room would be like later.

This calmness is not deliberately pretended, but incomparably natural.

Because habit becomes nature.

As Su Wen, who once fought fiercely with thousands of students on the battlefield of the college entrance examination, there is nothing simpler than the exam.

He was the top liberal arts student of the year, in other words, what he was best at, in addition to memorization, was exams.

A moment later, the third bell rang melodiously, which also means that the triennial state examination has officially begun.

Su Wen took the pen and filled in the ink, gently opened the first page of the exam paper, and looked at the familiar ink characters and familiar poems, he didn't even think about it, and he had already put pen to paper.

The first question is from Li Yi's "Listening to the Flute in the City at Night", and the question stem is the first two sentences.

"The sand is like snow in front of Huile Peak, and the moon outside the city is like frost. ”

Su Wen only took a few breaths, and then he had already answered the following text: "I don't know where to blow the reed pipe, and I will recruit people to look at my hometown overnight." ”

This question was too easy for Su Wen, even if he had not studied the poetry masterpieces of this world, he could easily answer it correctly.

Continue to look at the next question, but it is from Wang Han's "Liangzhou Ci", this poem is a genuine and extraordinary poem, it is a rare masterpiece in the Sacred Words Continent in the past thirty years, and for Su Wen, it is one of the famous poems that he was familiar with in his previous life.

"Grape wine glow-in-the-dark glass, if you want to drink the pipa, urge immediately. ”

Su Wen wrote a light book: "Drunk and lying on the battlefield, Jun Mo smiled, and a few people came back to fight in ancient times." ”

This poem is sentimental about the tragedy of the battlefield, and the lament in the last sentence expresses a kind of anti-war grievance, but in Su Wen's view at this time, he has a completely different experience.

"I can't go back......" Su Wen muttered softly, full of emotion in his heart, this poem is not homesick, but in Su Wen's heart, it evokes a shallow sentimentality.

Picking up his mood again, Su Wen calmed down and looked at the third question, but secretly frowned.

This poem has never appeared in Su Wen's previous life, and the lyricist Bi Gao is really strange, but Su Wen has read his works and remembers this "Bodhisattva Man" vividly.

So the reason why Su Wen frowned was not that he wouldn't, but that he had discovered something very strange.

In this state examination, how can the three poems that have appeared so far be the works of Biansai?

Su Wen suddenly stopped writing, and then turned the back pages of the exam paper, and was extremely surprised to find that nearly fifty percent of the questions in this poetry examination were side poems!

"What's going on!"

If you look closely, most of these poems are full of anti-war feelings, or describe the cruelty of war, or describe the sorrow of life and death, highlighting the meaning of homesickness.

Most of these works are from a period of time decades ago, after the first truce between the human race and the demon race, and slowly transitioned to peacetime.

At this time, when the state exam was underway, Su Wen didn't have much time to think about the intention of the questioner, so he had to press it down, put pen to paper again, and continue to answer step by step.

Thousands of people put pen to paper, the scene is naturally very spectacular, except for the footsteps passing through the field of inspection, there is only the rustling sound of answering questions.

For all scholars, this scene is the easiest, after all, it is just a reproduction of the works of the sages, and it has nothing to do with their own literary talents, only with the time spent and memory. But at the same time, this one is also the most difficult, because there are so many questions that in general, very few people can answer them all within the specified time.

There were three state exams, but all of them were completed in one day.

Asahi examines poetry, writes articles in the afternoon, and when the lights come on, they have to answer the time.

Therefore, the state exam is not only a mental work, but also a physical work, and often people get halfway through the exam, and their wrists are sore and painful, and it is difficult to continue.

Especially in this first field, in the face of thousands of poetry exam questions, in addition to using your brain to constantly recall and think, you must fill in the answers on the exam paper in the shortest possible time, not only can you not have the slightest mistake or omission, but also have to pay attention to the font and penmanship of the writing, which is really sloppy.

The time limit for the poetry test is two hours, and when the fourth bell rings, you can no longer answer the questions, and time is incomparably precious for everyone.

By this time, no one cared what was going on, and no one was going to observe the appearance of the magistrate of the Holy Inquisition who passed in front of him.

Everyone focused their full attention on the exam papers.

Suddenly, a "snort" sound of the chair feet rubbing against the ground broke the long-term silence, and even the candidates who were too attentive couldn't help but raise their heads and cast a ray of gaze in the direction where the sound came from.

Su Wen stood up gently, looked at the three examiners in front of him, and said respectfully: "After the student has finished answering, can he submit the paper in advance?"

At this time, there is still half an hour before the deadline for winding.
