Chapter 3: Literary Contest and Martial Arts Test
Chaohu Academy, Jinzhongshan.
As the center of Chaohu Academy, it is also the most rich place for the literary movement of the entire academy, and above Jinzhong Mountain is the Chaohu Confucian Temple, which is the most desirable among scholars in the world.
The Temple of Literature gathers the portraits or sculptures of all the Confucian saints in the world, but all the monks who are sanctified by Confucianism and Taoism have left one or two symbolic objects that contain their true meaning, which is also a kind of expression of the Confucian saints and the academy.
I sanctify Confucianism and Taoism because I will not forget the inheritance of Confucianism, teach the grace of Taoism, leave one or two things in my body, and be willing to accept the supervision of Confucianism and act in accordance with the rules of Confucianism.
And I, Confucianism, supervise you very deeply, and deliberately keep an object to restrict your freedom, but it also shows that I will protect you from an extremely depressed situation.
This is a kind of cooperation, and Confucianism needs to discipline these saints, often test their hearts, and prevent the other party from going astray and doing things that are harmful to the world and to the world.
You must know that if a saint monk really lets go of his hands and feet and chooses to kill, it will be an unimaginable disaster for the world.
Since the Confucian sages chose to use Confucianism and Taoism to achieve themselves, it was a matter of sending people under the fence, and since they benefited from others, they must follow the rules of others, and they also have extremely good benefits for their own smooth path.
This is true not only of Confucianism, but also of Taoism and Buddhism, because there are many side branches of Buddhism and Taoism, and it is very difficult to manage, so it is not like Confucianism, just one Chaohu Academy can restrain all Confucian sages.
However, the Taoism based on Qingcheng Mountain and the Buddhism based on the Dry Leaf Temple are also roughly in charge of nearly seventy percent of the great monks of the two Buddhist and Taoist families.
As for the remaining thirty percent, it is controlled by several famous sects in the world, such as the Xuantian Sect of the Tang Dynasty, such as the Zen Sect of Beiyan.
As for the great monks who transcend the three religions, they are all managed by various great powers, or they must be constrained by the rivers and lakes on the rivers and lakes, and above the rivers and lakes, like the top of the clouds, there is a person who is like a god, overlooking every move of the entire rivers and lakes.
That person is Luo Lanqing, the "first person in the rivers and lakes"!
The literary competition of Chaohu Academy has always been the most important ceremony of the academy, and it is set on the most important Spring Festival day in the world every year, which shows its extraordinary significance.
In the Wenbi martial arts test, Wenbi is the same thing, in the Wenbi, countless scholars in the Wenbi set the questions to each other to seek the truth, and then temper each other's own avenue, the benefits of which are unimaginable.
What's more, those who perform extremely well in the literary competition can even have the opportunity to climb the Jinzhong Mountain and enter the Confucian Temple to understand the avenue of various saints.
Relatively speaking, the martial arts test is very simple, it is nothing more than the competition of all forces in the academy and the protégés of each family. However, compared with the first sword competition, this competition is more than one and a half points higher in terms of both number and quality.
Although Chaohu Academy Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon is within the scope of Confucianism, its large branches are extremely large, and there may be dozens of disciples under a gentleman like Gao Yan, who preach extensively.
But there are also masters like Jin Xingu, who focus on preaching a disciple and teach him all his life, not seeking extensiveness, but only striving for excellence.
There are also many disciples who have been in retreat for many years and do not ask about the world, or they are deliberately hidden by their own masters, sharpening their avenues, and a martial arts test will eventually attract the appearance of a few special people, and their reputation is not very big.
In the original Jinzhong Mountain, there was only a square of tens of zhang in size under the mountain, surrounded by stands surrounded by various enchantments, open-air stands, open-air squares, everything seemed extremely simple and casual.
However, in order to prepare for this significant literary competition, Chaohu Academy deliberately built a circle of palace attics with different styles and decorations around the square.
Numerous palace attics hang above the void, like the Heavenly Court Palace, overlooking the world.
As for why each building has a very different decorative appearance, it is purely according to their own style.
For example, like Jin Xingu, there is only one disciple, Yuwenjun, that is, an extremely delicate and small suspended island that can accommodate several people, and there is a cherry blossom tree on the island that is very deep, the cherry blossoms are in full bloom, and the wind is fragrant.
And those masters who have a large number of students and disciples, some of them are a continent ship of extremely high specifications, and some are a majestic attic, the only exception is that it is enough to accommodate many people, so that some disciples will not have a fixed place to live and cause dissatisfaction.
On the mountainside of Jinzhong, a huge dome of treasure covers the heaven and earth, which happens to cover the entire Jinzhong Mountain competition venue.
On top of this, only a few simple rattan chairs were placed, and the rattan chairs were very far away, dividing the treasure cover into shape.
This place is called the Law Enforcement Hall, and it is a temporary organization set up by the academy to ensure the fairness of the competition and to better manage the competition.
The people who can sit on it, except for the great elders in the Chaohu Academy's own law enforcement hall, the rest of the people are all extremely prestigious seniors in the academy, and they are all one of the best existences.
At the foot of the mountain, a fierce light rose into the sky and went straight to the Law Enforcement Hall!
There was a barefoot man who stepped into the sky, pushed the entire sky into layers of clouds and mist, and then his body fell, and he stepped on the treasure cover with one foot!
"Bang!" A loud sound came from above the treasure cover, followed by a trace of cracks and cracks, as if it was about to fall apart and fall into the world at any time!
The Great Elder of the Law Enforcement Hall, who was still sorting out all kinds of lists, was also frightened by the other party's situation, and even the list books in his hands were scattered all over the place.
The barefoot man was so angry that his beard with white flowers stood upside down, and he shouted angrily at the top of his voice: "What do you mean? Last time, I didn't even arrange for my high school students to go into a small black house, but this time I simply gave us a bare hill? Everyone else is from an extremely gorgeous pavilion and treasure hall, why is it so casual here for me, people who don't know still think that I owe money to the academy and have been retaliated against!"
A few other people came to inquire about it, and the Great Elder of the Law Enforcement Hall waved his hand and put the scattered list books into the ring ruler, preparing to phrase them.
The Great Elder of the Law Enforcement Hall has always been known for his iron-faced selflessness and resolute behavior in dealing with major trials and punishments in the Academy, not only the disciples and students, but even the ordinary elders and masters who saw him would be shocked by his momentum, and they would not dare to do anything wrong!
If he uses his usual temperament, let alone come to ask for an explanation, the other party will have to be slapped by him even if he wants to see him!
Just kidding, if he, the great elder of the law enforcement hall of the academy, can't put it on display, anyone can humiliate a few points?
It's not that he wants to play with official authority, but he just wants to take his position in his position, and he must have a clear position on many things, otherwise the academy will be embarrassed!
But the person who came was the notoriously unreasonable Gao Yu of Chaohu Academy, and he was really caught off guard for a while.
I can't beat it, I can't scold it, the great elder glanced at it, and a few friends who came to help, and said in his heart: "Then I have to talk about the mountain chief." ”
"Don't take that bald old man's hair to talk to me, it doesn't matter who you move!" But who knew that he was just about to speak, but the other party seemed to see through his thoughts, and a word made him speechless.
Gao Yan spat on a mouthful of stars, and continued: "I really don't know who my disciples and students are recruiting and provoking whom, how they are targeted everywhere, Xiaoshan, you and I are raised as a group of monkeys in the mountains, and if you give a mountain, you will put it in the garden......!
"The monk's bare head ......," Gao Yan said and frowned, feeling that something was wrong.
"Eh! yes!" At this time, the Great Elder's eyes lit up, and he suddenly realized and exclaimed, "Look at your group of students, are they single for a long time, each like a wolf and a tiger, isn't it a monk temple that was recognized by all the disciples as the academy some time ago, the mountain chief said to formulate a characteristic residence, I look at your group of disciples, the first reaction is to think of the monk's head, it just happens that there is an idle mountain in the academy, so it will be handed over to you to use." ”
"What?" Gao Yan's eyes rolled with anger, but for a while, he really couldn't say any good words to refute, as if someone was choking his throat violently, like a fish in his throat!
At this time, a black-robed man on the side hurriedly came over and grabbed Gao Yan's arm and persuaded him: "Mr. Gao, this is also the requirement of the academy, the academy should build a unique characteristic style, let's be a little wronged, anyway, it won't take much time to compete, and it will pass in the blink of an eye!"
Gao Yan glanced at the black-robed man who stepped forward to persuade him, and said in surprise: "Qin Jian! Why did you come here too, and that bald man agreed to make a tide to participate?"
The black-robed man took this opportunity to quickly change the topic, and said with a helpless expression: "Yes, the above agreed, but I was excluded alone, and only a few of my subordinates were allowed to participate in the Huiyang Realm." Then I'm here. ”
Gao Yan raised his eyebrows, "You tide children still have time to participate in the competition every day, it's really a young man's heart!"
Qin Jian also ignored the other party's cynicism and explained: "That is, two or three people are participating in the competition, and their positions are all helped by someone, so there will be no big mess." ”
Gao Yan pretended to sigh and said: "Alas, you young people are good, you are energetic, you are busy with chores and trivial things, and you are participating in competitions and playing, and old people like us are completely inadequate, and they have more than enough heart but not enough strength!"
Qin Jian said with a smile: "Mr. Gao, don't say that, I think your old man still has a lot of energy, the so-called spirit, the old man is strong, you are the old man!"
Gao Yan glanced at Qin Jian, "It's just your boy's flamboyant tongue, but no matter what you say, there are some things, I still don't accept the old man!"
......
was so gagged by Qin Jian, there was no sentence, Gao Yan was slowly pulled by the other party's arm and went down the mountain.
The Great Elder looked at the distant backs of the two of them, exhaled a long breath, and finally broke up this difficult guy.
But after a while, a figure turned back from the sky again, and his body shook and his nerves tensed.
Gao Yan stood in the distance, casually throwing a letter in his hand, "It's all nonsense with you, I almost forgot about business, here's a list, and my students will participate in the competition and add one!"
The Great Elder opened the letter in his hand, and there were three big characters written on it, "Zhang!
