Chapter Fifty-Eight: Everything Is Empty
After everyone sat down, the head of the dart was silent for a while and said: "Today is the most important day of the year in our Donghai Mansion, this is the Dongzhou University to recruit students, everyone is the head of the dart bureau, the children of the dart master, this is an opportunity for the young people here, so today everyone is willing to accompany you to go, I hope you can become the pillar of our dart board after being admitted, of course, we do not force better development!
After a pause, the head of the dart head continued: "Qingzhou sent a message to the world and said, 'The emperor has fallen for twenty years, and the new lord is welcomed in the two jiazi', which means that now the aura of heaven and earth has reached its peak, and someone can achieve the position of the emperor, even if we have nothing to do with the emperor, but now is a golden period of cultivation, and I don't need to say more about the benefits! Everyone work hard, and becoming Dongzhou College is your first step!"
"Let's go!"
After speaking, the head of the dart was the first to get up, and everyone followed out of the dart game at one time, and then rode on the horses that had been prepared at the door, and set off towards Dongzhou College.
The floating dust followed in the middle, and everything was done according to everyone's instructions, but I just felt that this was too shocking!
At this time, Donghai City was much more lively than the day when it entered the city, and the people on the streets were not only dressed very festively, but also talked and laughed, and many people also set off in one direction with the floating dust, just like a parade.
Old man Chen pulled the horse rope, walked side by side with Fuchen, looked at Fuchen and said, "Boy Chen, do you know where we are going?"
Fuchen: "I know, Dongzhou College!"
Old man Chen frowned, as if he felt that he had said something wrong, so he continued: "Then do you know where to go to Dongzhou Academy?"
Floating Dust: "Inside the Academy!"
Old man Chen directly glanced at Fuchen: "Don't pretend if you don't understand, okay! Dongzhou College is two mountains, and these two mountains are Dongzhou College, Li boy, do you want to know more?"
Fuchen: "I don't want to know!"
Old man Chen looked at Fuchen with an expression, and he couldn't affect him in the slightest, so he asked with a smile: "You seem to be very nervous, aren't you sure?
Floating Dust: "Hmm!"
Old man Chen waved his hand and said easily: "Don't be nervous, just your skills, it's no problem at all, and today it's just a literary exam, it's very simple, you used to answer a few questions on paper, let's Xiu Xian asked mainly to see if the knife in his hand is powerful!"
Fuchen rarely turned his head to look at Old Man Chen, and said lightly: "If I don't know a word, can I still get by?"
Old man Chen was obviously stunned for a moment, and almost fell off the horse, and opened his mouth for a long time without speaking.
After riding for three quarters of an hour, the group stopped at the foot of the hill and saw two huge towers standing on either side of the road, the middle of which was indirectly connected with four characters written on them, and behind the towers were a series of steps that spread up the hill.
This should be Dongzhou College, like this city, the college has no walls.
The chief dart dismounted, handed the reins to an accompanying man, and the people behind followed suit, and the group stood at the door without stopping and walked directly up the steps.
Halfway through, some people were already out of breath, and when they reached the top, they found that it was a huge square, the square was full of tables at this time, and then there was a platform built of wood, and on the middle wall was a vigorous and powerful writing of two words "front yard" to meet the face, and the two sides of the square were also close audience seats.
The head of the dart led everyone to find a place to sit in the audience on the left, and gradually more and more people appeared.
After half an hour, three middle-aged men were ushered in on the platform, and after standing still for a while, the middle-aged man with a serious expression in the middle spoke.
"In the 9973rd year of the imperial calendar, Dongzhou College enrolled students again, and a total of 200 students were admitted according to the total results of the literary and martial arts examinations, which lasted for half an hour. ”
After a pause, he continued: "The day before yesterday, Qingzhou Tianyan Mountain sent a message to all over the country, saying, 'The emperor has fallen for twenty years, and the new lord is welcomed in Liangjiazi', which means that I don't need to say more, I wish you a long rainbow!"
After hearing this, the audience fryed, although many people already knew about it before, but now it is still very exciting to say this, and everyone discussed it together.
Even the people on this side of the dart board looked at the head of the dart.
After a quarter of an hour of discussion, the people of the academy also placed sealed paper bags on each table.
Watching the people of the academy withdraw from the square, the man in the middle of the platform shouted, "Silence!"
The people in the audience quickly and quietly did a good job, knowing that the essay exam was about to start.
"I am Yu Hongyun, the head of Dongzhou College, please sit down in the square of the students who have signed up, and listen to the instructions to open the papers!"
After the man in the middle of the platform finished speaking, in the audience seats on both sides, some people stood up and walked down, at this time, there were three or four thousand tables in the square, and Fuchen followed the people of the dart bureau to find a table with no one in the square and sat down, and Li Zhen happened to sit on the edge of the floating dust.
Like the people around him, he didn't care about the bag on the table, but took off the baggage, took out the pen, ink, paper and inkstone, poured some water and began to put the ink in the inkstone and grind it.
Fuchen looked around and found that Li Zhen was looking at him, and as soon as the two looked at each other, Li Zhen immediately twisted his head back.
At this time, Yu Hongyun on the platform saw that the people in the square were already in place, so he gestured to the person on the left, and the person understood the meaning and shouted to the square: "The literary test begins, and the students open the papers!"
As soon as the people in the audience heard this, they all hurriedly took action, as if they were afraid of delaying a little more time, and Fuchen looked at the bag on the table, shook his head and sighed, but still opened it.
But I saw two lines of words on the white paper, one line was to let me have some names, which I still knew, and the rest I couldn't understand.
Sure enough, it is the most difficult problem I have ever encountered, and there is no deviation from expectations, I don't know what to do after writing the name crookedly, but it is not good to put down the pen directly, looking at the people around me constantly shaking the pen in their hands, no one put it down, and they had to make a show, who knew that a little effort, a drop of ink dripped up, so I hooked the dog in the inkstone, and there was no water before pretending again.
At this time, a handsome-looking young man came to the platform, dressed in black, with some dark blue ornaments on his clothes, and a long sword at his waist, which was very gorgeous.
The other two people of Yu Hongyun No. 3 saw this person and hurriedly saluted and shouted, "Vice President of the East!"
"Hmm!"
Vice President Dongfang stood beside Yu Hongyun, who was speechless, pointed in a certain direction in the square and asked the other two, "What's that person's name?"
One of them looked at the direction Yu Hongyun pointed and replied, "I don't know!"
Yu Hongyun still looked at the person Dongfang Changge pointed at with a cold face, so he said in an even more indifferent voice: "Dongfang Changge, you are not such an idle person, right?"
Dongfang Changge didn't care about Yu Hongyun's indifference, but replied with a smile: "I must have something big coming, otherwise you wouldn't be tired when I am the vice president?"
Yu Hongyun stood up and looked at the people around him and said, "Go check!"
Saying that, the original person got down from the side of the platform, and casually turned around other places in the square, which made the nearby students nervous, not only was he spinning, but also brought a few people to turn again, as if he was cheating on it, Fuchen blushed when he looked at his white roll.
Before half an hour arrived, someone on the field had already left, and Fuchen couldn't stand it when he looked at the scroll with only his name and a drop of ink, so he packed up his things and left.
After Fuchen left, he returned to the audience, and Old Man Chen turned his head and asked softly, "What did you do in the test?"
Fuchen replied with some loss: "I can't read, so I wrote a name!"
Old man Chen stared at Fuchen with wide eyes: "Isn't that just a white roll?"
Fuchen: "Yes!"
Old man Chen was stunned for a long time and didn't know what to say. There are also some who don't believe in the floating dust, so they simply turn their heads away.
After a while, Li Zhen came back and pointed directly at Fuchen and shouted, "Li Fuchen, you ...... You're handing in a blank slate!"
The people around this shout heard it, and the eyes that came over were disdainful, contemptuous, contemptuous, and watching, which made Fuchen feel very uncomfortable, especially the eyes of some young people in the dart team were naked and mocking, and they were still smiling in the morning, but this was the case at this time.
After Li Zhen came back, the head of the dart also got up, and when he passed by the side of Fuchen, he looked at Fuchen and said: "Little Brother Li, I'm sorry, this kid is straight." After speaking, he walked down the audience, and even the people who followed him deliberately took a look at the floating dust.
After a while, there were only Fuchen and Old Man Chen, Old Man Chen thought that the other party was joking in the morning, but he really handed over the white scroll, spread out on the seat and looked at the sky and said: "It's the end now!"
Fuchen looked at Old Man Chen like this, he didn't care about it, but he also collapsed at this moment, and followed Old Man Chen to look at the sky, He Cheng thought that he would be defeated so quickly.
Blame luck, blame the poor family, blame being born in a small mountain village, how could this not be self-inflicted! In the army, he was also a literate person, and he remembered that there was an old man in his army who could write and calculate, but he asked himself how to write his name.
There is also a chance in Dongning City, at that time I still had some wages, but I didn't find someone to study hard, it was really a time to use the time to hate less! I thought that I had entered this world, just practice boxing well, but now I found out that it really doesn't work!
After a long time, Old Man Chen patted Fuchen's shoulder: "Don't be too sad, let's go!"
Saying that, Fuchen walked down the audience with Old Man Chen, and walked on the steps down the mountain, feeling so long, as if he would fall down at any time, and after walking the last step, he found that he had fallen down.
