Chapter 153: Once famous
Although the Chu family doesn't seem to have many people as officials in the court, they really can't underestimate the family's ability in the capital, but it didn't arouse much interest in Ji Yuan, and he still sat in the attic and ate steamed buns while reading a book.
Ji Yuan will eat very slowly when he reads, and five buns can be eaten in just seven or eight bites by ordinary strong men, and the more he reads the book in his hands, the slower he eats.
Seeing the sun slanting in the west, Ji Yuan had already read the entire set of "Baifu Tongjian" almost to the end, but the bun in his hand was still a little corner, as if he was waiting for a set of books to finish eating.
After reading the last sentence and turning to the back page of the sixth volume of "Baifu Tongjian", Ji Yuan threw the corner of the bun in his left hand into his mouth, and he didn't know whether he was tasting the bun or the content of the book.
Ji Yuan's current mentality can't be said to be very different from that of his previous life, but at least he is much more peaceful and patient, even so, sometimes he reminisces about things such as mobile phone networks, and things like folk customs from all over the world come out with two clicks on the Internet.
Downstairs to put the "Baifu Tongjian" back in its place, Ji Yuan was already ready to sleep when he returned to the third floor again, but he didn't really sleep, but took advantage of the moment of sleep to comprehend the old dragon's borrowed magic.
Although the things on the old dragon's side are not authentic in the fairy mansion, but after all, it is a real dragon, as long as the old dragon is really interested, and there is time to study, no matter how bad it is, there will be a plausible product, such as the predecessor of Bailu's immortal beast law, after Ji Yuan perfected it, I think it should still be more brilliant.
The most interesting thing in this borrowed jade slip is naturally "conveying the gods with things" and "driving the clouds and fog", the former is more convenient to practice, and the latter is one of the famous flying techniques, which need to be carefully scrutinized and repeatedly practiced in the artistic conception and even the dream world.
When normal immortal cultivators learn the vacating technique, they are all protected by their elders, and they are afraid that they will accidentally fall to their death.
However, Ji Yuan is not because he is afraid of falling to death, if he really feels unsafe, he will not be unable to pull his face to ask the old dragon to take care of him, the big deal will surprise the old dragon greatly, and even be ridiculed, but the other party will definitely help, this point of Ji Yuan is still very accurate, and the old dragon did not want to make friends because of Ji Yuan's ability.
The old dragon's magic is very special, some of the descriptions are simply down to the minute, not so much pure cloud control as there are water and wind resistance and some special manifestation factors in it, and the "Tong Ming Strategy" recorded in the cloud technique is a little different.
As the saying goes, the wind is from the tiger and the cloud from the dragon, the dragon is a talent and a dragon, and the real dragon is one of the best, so he doesn't need to learn much.
Ji Yuan slept very simply, took the gray cloth bag hidden in the attic curtain, put it on the ground as a pillow, and then lay on his side on the spot, a jade stick cushion under the head, and entered the dream fragrance between a few breaths, and practiced magic in the dream of rest.
Unlike ordinary immortal cultivators, who enter the meditation and meditation, such as Ji Yuan, it is estimated that he can only use it as a strange person like him who has artistic conception of mountains and rivers and can overlap from time to time.
。。。
Ji Yuan only fell asleep here, but in Yanhui Alley on the side of Yongan Street, there were people who woke up from a long dream.
Wang Li slept a little dazed, rubbed his eyes and opened his eyes, and entered the ceiling of the rented room, sat up slightly sluggishly and stretched out and yawned.
"Ho~~~"
Tears overflowed from the corners of his eyes during the yawn, which also made the whole person sober up a lot.
Looking at the somewhat dim appearance of the room, it should not be early.
The dishes and chopsticks on the bedside table are gone, perhaps someone from the landlord's family has come to clean up again.
Now Wang Li is still a little dazed.
"Why did I fall asleep all of a sudden, as if I had a long dream......"
His eyes swept over the table and saw the words "White Deer Yuan" written on the top of a yellowed paper.
In an instant, the brain was like an overelectricity, and everything in the long dream was recalled.
Wang Li's whole person went from being stunned to shaking, and then gradually became excited, lifted the quilt and went to the desk.
"White Deer Yuan! White Deer Yuan! I have to write it down, this is a fairy teaching a story, I have to write it down immediately!"
Under the agitation of the mood, Wang Li hurriedly clicked on the inkstone and began to re-polish the ink, the story to be written is not short, but as a storyteller's instinct, his mind has already arranged the story more exciting.
"There have to be five times in this book, no, no, there have to be six, and it has to be more than six times to finish it......"
When he muttered to himself, his hands were even more excited, and the movements of grinding ink on his hands seemed to be swinging.
Not long after he got up, a chill hit, Wang Li shivered again, and hurriedly dragged the quilt to wrap himself.
Seeing that the sky had begun to darken, he picked up the fire fold on the table and wanted to light the oil lamp, but when he opened the cap, he found that the spark in the fire fold had burned out.
"Xiaodong~~~Is Xiaodong here~~~"
Wang Licong let go of the quilt and got up from the bed and walked to the door to shout a few words, but he didn't dare to open the door, knowing that it must be colder outside.
"Hey, Dad, Mother, Mr. Wang is awake and calling me. ”
"I've slept all day, I'm hungry!"
Laughter and conversation were heard from the next room, and then the boy trotted to the front of Wang Li's house and opened the door.
Woo...... Woo......
A cold evening wind blew in, and Wang Li couldn't help but shiver.
"Mr. Wang is awake, I have it for you, today is the first day of the new year, there are button meat and white duck, hehehe, it's delicious!"
"Oh oh, okay, okay, I'm hungry, by the way, get me a new fire fold, I'm going to lead it, the house is out"
The boy looked at the dark darkness in the room, said "yes" crisply, and trotted away.
Half an hour later, Wang Li's house lit an oil lamp and closed the lampshade, and the Four Immortals Table had the four treasures of the study room on one side, the New Year's meal on the other side, and a stack of white paper in the middle.
The top piece of white paper has only three big characters, which is the "White Deer Yuan" written by Ji Yuan, which is also the paper that Wang Li intends to use as a book cover.
Between the exquisite calligraphy of the gods, this time the storyteller Wang Li is also extra careful in writing, although it is still not a good word, but try to be neat, otherwise there is always a feeling of tarnishing the calligraphy of the gods.
At this moment, Ji Yuan in his sleep seemed to feel something, and he was still flying away on the clouds and mist in his dream, but the body on the outside library showed a smile.
"The flyover desk waving a paper fan, the screen wakes up the legend of the wooden road. ”
。。。
The imperial examination has undergone several changes in Dazhen, and now the palace examination is held once every three years.
Before the state test, the state examination was relatively free, and the test time was different according to the different questions, some hours and some days, but the content of the test was different.
Everyone knows the content that needs to be memorized for the basic skills, and most of the candidates such as poetry and poetry will be prepared in advance, but there will be more questions about some arguments and understanding, because this is already the time to really screen for official talents, and the time required will be much longer.
Starting from the ninth day of the second month, three examinations will be held on the ninth, twelfth and fifteenth days of the first month, each lasting for three days.
Around the time when the apricot blossoms are in full bloom, the list will be posted to inform the results of the examination, so it is also called the "apricot list".
And after the announcement of the apricot list, the final palace test will start after a five-day break, competing for the ranking of the entire generation of Dazhen scholars, although the champion may not be able to be much of a big official, at least it is indeed the honor of the glory of the ancestors.
Time flies, even if it is still cold, but the hearts of the tributes are hot.
Today is February 30th, the day of the announcement of the apricot list, and all the scholars and talents from the Dazhen states are gathered outside the wall of the Gongyuan list in the capital, anxiously waiting for the official list with various complicated emotions.
Ji Yuan didn't know where the Gongyuan was located, but he knew the exact location when he stood in the library of Chu Mansion and looked at it, because it was really dense and dense over there, and it was difficult to ignore it.
'Master Yin is already talented, and he has gained the clear air of heaven and earth during the New Year, and now the spirit of Haoran is flourishing, Lingtai's thoughts are extremely clear, and his achievements will definitely go to the next level!'
With this kind of confidence in his friends, Ji Yuan didn't go to join in the fun outside the Gongyuan at all.
......
Yin Zhaoxian and Shi Yusheng couldn't squeeze others, and there were no servants to open the way, so they were compressed into a corner by a group of scholars.
"Oh, Brother Yin, why aren't you in a hurry at all, my heart is the same as a cat's paw!"
The closer to the release of the list, the more nervous Shi Yusheng became, and the sweat was about to come down, but looking at Yin Zhaoxian on the side, he still looked light.
Yin Zhaoxian heard Shi Yusheng's words and couldn't help but refute.
"Who said I'm not in a hurry? I'm in a hurry! But it's useless to be anxious, and you can get better if you get ahead?"
"What you say is reasonable, but we can't even see the list later!"
Yin Zhaoxian also smiled bitterly, isn't this force majeure, just as he wanted to say something, the strong voice of the court officer sounded.
"Silence~~~~"
The originally noisy environment outside the walls of the entire Gongyuan suddenly quieted down.
"Zhang Bang~~~~"
The official's roar fell, and four servants with silver brims came out of the tribute courtyard, one of whom was holding a roll of yellow cloth, which was longer than the officer's height.
There were officers outside who held sticks to block the scholars, and in front of the officers with good martial arts, these scholars couldn't cross the line no matter how crowded they were.
The four officers worked together to unfold it, and then the four of them bowed down and jumped together, and under the light effort, they lifted their movements in the air, and grabbed the corner of the yellow cloth and slapped it against the wall.
"Bang", "bang", "bang", "bang", "bang", four palms and walls slammed.
When the errand fell, the huge apricot list had been posted.
After a while, Yin Zhaoxian felt a familiar atmosphere, just like when he was in Chunhui Mansion in Jizhou.
Many scholars in the crowd were preaching.
"Who is Yin Zhaoxian?" "Where is this person?"
"I'm on the list, hahaha, I'm on the list" "I'm also on the list!"
"Congratulations, congratulations...""Hey......"
"Do you know Yin Zhaoxian?" "I don't know......"
"I know, I know, I've heard of a name on Wenqu Street, it's Jizhou Xie Yuan!"
"Oh, it's only eight buckets high, it's eight buckets high!"
......
The voice came from the back, and the words "Yin Zhaoxian" were repeatedly mentioned in the rolling noise, Shi Yusheng's expression was a little incredulous, and Yin Zhaoxian's own heart was beating faster.
