Chapter 383: As soon as I got on the horse, it cracked
Fortunately, when most of the people finished the six exams in the morning, there were no mistakes in the chaos, and it didn't hurt.
It's just that there are many students who are cramming for the sake of temporary, thinking that the martial arts examination is not strict, and many students who want to mix up the name of the martial arts people, under Jiang Yan's serious assessment, all of them fell to Sun Shan.
The pass rate of this year's martial arts examination has become the lowest in the history of Jinling's martial arts examination, and one out of ten is selected.
Ning Wuxian took four exams in the morning, namely talent, weightlifting, foot archery and mounted archery, except for the barely qualified riding and archery results, the other three were excellent.
In the afternoon, he began to warm up and train for the language and horse pistol, especially the horse pistol, and after lunch, he began to warm up and train, and also took the horse to walk around the examination room twice.
In the morning, seventy percent of the unqualified people were screened out, and in the afternoon, the number of people decreased, and the order of the scene became orderly, and there was no need to be crowded with sweat in the queue.
Ning Wuxian was waiting, and saw a young man with a somewhat familiar face walking by with a drum hammer in his hand.
He recognized at a glance that this was the official who shrank his head and skipped two drums when he was taking the riding and archery test in the morning, and smiled and waved hello.
"Brother, are you still beating the drum this afternoon?"
"Ah...... Yes, yes, Mr. Launing remembered. ”
The other party obviously didn't expect him to take the initiative to say hello, and replied flatteredly.
Back then, the arrow broke the drum skin, not himself, but the person who beat the drum still has palpitations when he thinks about it, for fear that Ning Wuxian will deviate from the arrow again and break the drum skin.
Today's Ning Wuxian is different from the past, maybe someone will rely on him to knock too loudly or too lightly to cause him to be shot, then there is really no place to reason.
Fortunately, in the two items of the afternoon exam, they were far away from the place where the drums were beating, and the drummer was about to leave after replying.
Ning Wuxian stood away from the waiting bench and bowed to the drummer.
"I have offended you a lot before, which frightened you, but don't worry, brother, I passed the exam this time, and you don't have to worry about it in the future, I will shoot the drum you beat with an arrow or a shot."
Hearing his words, the drummer's eyes changed for a moment, but he quickly congratulated him with a smile.
Seeing the other party's restrained reaction, Ning Wuxian suddenly felt as if he was making a bit of a fuss, and smiled and invited him.
"Brother, when I pass the exam, I will invite you to dinner in the evening."
Examined?
The drummer thought of what was going to happen next, and expressed deep sympathy for this Jinling poet who had failed the test twice and failed the test twice.
Thinking of the Jinling poet who is now famous in the south of the Yangtze River, and the straw bag is going to be repeated, I still have some schadenfreude in my heart.
Because he knew the ending, coupled with the urging of Shangguan, the drummer did not respond to Ning Wuxian's words, and clenched his drumsticks and walked to the high platform that was erected.
The hot face was attached to the cold buttocks, but Ning Wuxuan didn't care, just sat down and couldn't help but whisper a complaint.
"I can't see that this drummer is quite cold."
As he was talking, he suddenly felt a chill behind his back, and he felt that someone was staring at him.
But when I turned my head, I found that there was nothing abnormal except for the officials and test takers in the examination room.
He beckoned to the horses in the stables not far away, and the horses, who were colder than the drummers, shook their heads and ignored him.
I'll go.
This lazy horse won't be used to taking a nap every day, and he's still dozing off today, right?
"Rather unharmed! Get ready! ”
Calling his name, Ning Wuxian retracted his divergent thoughts.
This time, the first test is speech.
For a person who makes a name for himself by reciting poetry and lyrics, it is easy to clear the verbal level.
Even the little official who took the school examination couldn't help but quip: "Mr. Ning is more suitable than me to sit in the position of the language examiner." ”
The questions are generally how to improve physical strength, and briefly explain the purpose of the martial arts test.
To put it bluntly, it's just not a dumb person, and you can pass the test by memorizing a few words at home.
Ning Wuxian had actually prepared the draft a long time ago, thinking that like others, he could simply answer a few words, not necessarily too mediocre, but also not to be in the limelight.
But thinking that his mount might not have woken up from a nap, he simply pulled the examiner in charge of this to discuss various martial arts aspects to enhance physical strength, until the bias in the direction of emphasizing literature and suppressing martial arts should be corrected.
Impassionedly, his mouth was dry, and he drew a thick and round cake of how brilliant Daxing would be after arming his mind and body.
The examiner who listened responsibly was full of admiration, and attracted Jiang Yan to come and listen, and in the end, it was the other students who finished the examination of other projects, leaving only the level of speech, and they were anxiously waiting for the results.
Ning Wuxiao also heard the neighing of his own horse, so he paused and bowed to Jiang Yan, who was still unsatisfied, and the examiner in charge of the language project.
"My lord, I'm done."
"Is that the end of it?"
Jiang Yan was still imagining what Ning Wuxian had just said, the prosperous scene of strengthening the country with force, governing the country with culture, and using both civil and military forces.
suddenly pulled back to reality from the imaginary world, and saw the impatient students standing behind Ning Wuxian, so they had to reluctantly pick up the seal, and after stamping the seal on the judgment book, they wrote a big "excellent" word.
In the end, I didn't forget to invite Ning Wuxian, and when I was free, the two of them would have a good chat on the topic that was not finished just now.
Words are excellent.
As long as the remaining carbs are qualified, according to today's overall results, he is also in the preferred ranks.
At this time, Ning Wujian had already completed six exams, all of them won the "excellent", became the top three today, and obtained the qualification to enter the Beijing Palace Examination, which is already an ironclad thing.
When the two brothers met, Ning Wuxian was very proud to learn the news.
"Third brother, you are really a hexagonal warrior."
"What does a hexagonal warrior mean?"
"That's it...... Say you're excellent in all six. ”
Ning Wuxian said a word, and wanted to ask if he had any skills in riding, so he had already begun to read his name and call him to wait in line, so he could only separate from the third brother and trot a few steps towards the mount that had been waiting for him for a long time.
"Hexagonal Warrior, ......"
It was the first time for Ning Wujian to hear this kind of boastful rhetoric, and he was a little puzzled, but he was more happy.
Months of hard work have finally paid off.
He looked at his father and straightened his back proudly.
Ning Weiguo watched his son's examination like a fish in water, his face was not obvious, but his heart was mixed, and then looked at Ning Wuxian, who was preparing to wait, only felt that it was the ancestor who appeared, if there was no harm and let the Ning family turn over, I was afraid that it would be okay to sign up for the Xiucai Township Examination in three days, and after the exam, I would have to wait for the results in a month with anxiety.
It's good now.
As long as everyone's exam is over, the results will be available on the same day, and the results are already obvious, today's first is his youngest son who almost embarked on the path of civil service!
"Then it's all left to be unharmed, I've been practicing for so long, and I have stirrups to help me, so I'm fine."
Almost as soon as Ning Weiguo's words fell, he heard a piercing sound of "ding bell" coming from the examination room.
Ning Wuxian, who had just stepped on the stirrup and stepped on the horse's back, looked at the split and fallen stirrup in astonishment, and the whole person was messy on the horseback.
Yes...... This......
The load-bearing capacity of this stirrup has been tested thousands of times by the sledgehammer, there is no problem with hanging thousands of pounds, it is not bad at ordinary times, and it is fine in the morning, how did it crack at the last critical moment?
"Mr. Ning, it's your turn to take the school riding test soon, won't the iron weapon that fell from your horse's back affect your performance?"
The little official in charge of calling the number asked worriedly.
It's okay if he doesn't ask.
One asked.
The other students who were also preparing to refer to it all looked at the stirrups that cracked under Ning Wuxian's feet with resentful eyes.
Although the martial arts exam does not restrict the entry of stirrups and is not considered cheating, riding is a benchmark for testing one's horseback kung fu.
Ning Wuxian, even if he is a Jinling poet immortal, he came to take the martial arts test across the line, and he is here to play at first glance, but because of this, if they fail the test, they will look very embarrassed.
Ning Wuxian didn't consider other people's opinions, he took a deep look at the cracked stirrups, turned over and dismounted.
"Ning Shixian thinks that the stirrup is cracked is not a good omen, and she is worried that there is danger and plans to abandon the exam?"
Someone asked gloatingly.
