Pingfeng County is still the same, but there are fewer people on the street, and it is a little more deserted.

Even in a large mansion like the Zhou Mansion, a deer-blocking stake was erected in front of the door, and young and strong guards were arranged, and entry was restricted.

"Third brother, you really don't have to think about it, you and I are now famous, even if you don't take the five-year examination, you will have the opportunity to go out to be an official in the future!"

The ancient kingdom of the Great Wei Dynasty, occupying fifty states in the world, has a round of examinations every five years, with a list of Jinshi and the third person, a list of nine Jinshi, and a third list of 36 Jinshi, and only 48 people in total every five years.

The number of admissions is less, and the quality is higher, and these officials from Jinshi, as long as they don't make big mistakes, can basically get mixed into the five-grade official positions, and they are all very noble.

The rest of the official positions are handed over to the people, and there is not much difference between the people and the officials in the official career, the only difference is that the people who are promoted as officials are not allowed to enter the cabinet for life, which is very different from the Chinese feudal dynasty.

Zhou Mingyuan is right, with Tong Tianyang's current situation, it is really a pity to give up his fame to cultivate, you must know that even if it is a township test held every three years in each state, there are only ten people in one session, and there are only five hundred people in the whole country.

Aside from the Jinshi, the scholars who can be admitted to the examination are already the elite among the scholars in the country, even if they do not participate in the final examination, hand over a fold in the official department, and wait for three or four years, as long as the vacancy is vacant, a county order of the lower county can still be done.

"I have made up my mind, and I hope that the second brother will not persuade me!"

Tong Tianyang is not his predecessor after all, although he inherited his predecessor's knowledge, but he still has no confidence in the examination of this world, and he has studied for sixteen years in his previous life, and he is about to vomit when he reads, even if he has no opportunity to learn martial arts in this life, he doesn't want to study anymore.

"Okay! I don't advise you on this matter, but you will enter the city, you may be disappointed, Brother Shi should not be in the county now, I heard the housekeeper say, there was a tragedy in Dongjia Village the night before, and the whole village died, and in the end it was discovered by the team that played the shadow puppet show, with Brother Shi's temperament, he must have gone to the scene!" Zhou Mingyuan shook his head helplessly, "Now the world is getting more and more chaotic, if it weren't for the official career in front of me, I might have made the same choice as you!"

On the eve of the Eve, Dongjia Village, the village was destroyed......

Hearing these three phrases, Tong Tianyang's whole body couldn't help but be stunned, all of this couldn't help but make him think of what happened in the village last night, whether the two are related, and hurriedly asked, "Do you know the specific situation?"

"I don't know, it was reported yesterday afternoon, Dongjia Village is the junction of Pingfeng County and Liuhe County, more than 30 miles away from the county seat, and it is not within the scope of the business road, if it wasn't for the shadow puppet troupe passing by, how could the news come out quickly!" Zhou Mingyuan explained.

"Brother Mingyuan, do you know where to get what I want!"

Shi Tianze is not here, the best choice is gone, but going back empty-handed like this, Tong Tianyang obviously can't accept it.

"Why don't I ask the old housekeeper at home, the old housekeeper in my family is over sixty years old and knows a little about the big and small things in this county, maybe I can give you a hint for the third brother!"

"Looks like that's the only way to do it!"

The Zhou Mansion and the Tong family, both of which are the three old families in Pingfeng County, heard that they were still relatives of the emperor, although they have been defeated over the years, they are still in terms of heritage, and they are by no means comparable to ordinary people.

"Now the world is not peaceful, Tong Gongzi wants to learn martial arts to protect himself, how dare the old man not help!" "The old man is an achievement, the old housekeeper of the Zhou Mansion is obviously this kind of person, after understanding the antecedents, he immediately hugged his fists and smiled, "If the son doesn't want to learn too advanced martial arts, the old man really has a proposal, how can there be some good players in this county over the years, take the county's head catcher as an example, Zhang Zhutou has a good martial arts, this person has a good body, and he is good at tracking! In the past 20 years, he has repeatedly solved major cases!"

Hearing this, Tong Tianyang's eyes couldn't help but light up.

Body method, this is a good thing, whether it is fighting or walking, the body method can be used, plus this person's body method, can be known, it is not a show.

"I just don't know if this person is willing to teach me!"

Martial arts is often a guy who eats as a martial artist, and it is not easy to ask people for advice.

This kind of thing is not only happening in the past life, but also happening now.

"It may be a bit troublesome to be someone else, but it's not a problem to fall on you, a boy. Don't talk about the fame of your Tong family, just say that this Zhang Putou, who suffered from your father's grievances back then, if it weren't for your father's righteous words back then, the Zhang family might have been gone long ago! This is the grace of life, Lao Zhang has no son, he has not accepted apprentices over the years, and when he dies, his whole body of work will be broken, of course, if Tong Gongzi can bear his pension problem, I think this matter will be stable!" The old housekeeper smiled.

"Boy, thank you for your advice!"

Tong Tianyang is happy, there is this story in it, with the uprightness of the people of this world, it is not difficult to get which way of Zhang Zhutou.

Knowing that Tong Tianyang was anxious, the old housekeeper immediately took Tong Tianyang to find Zhang Zhutou first.

Zhang Zhutou, who has been a head catcher for more than 20 years, has made many meritorious achievements during the period, saved countless people, the people in the county are loved, the successive officials respect, and life is naturally not too bad when he is old, the small courtyard of the three entrances is in the north of the county, after knowing the origin of Tong Tianyang, Zhang Zhutou obviously couldn't help but be stunned, he obviously didn't think that at this age, he still has the opportunity to repay his kindness.

Closing the door, Zhang Putou, whose hair fell out but was still in good spirits, sat on the chair with a smile, "Heavenly Son, old man Zhang Bing, what have you done in this life, but I owe you a favor to the Tong family, I thought that there would be no chance in this life, since you are here today, you can afford to look up to me Zhang, this gossip goes to the heavens, I will pass you on!"

"What the predecessors said, the little ones dare not be ashamed!" Tong Tianyang hugged his fists.

"Take a hand and try it!

"Good!"

Saying that, the two of them stood up, Tong Tianyang used a knife in one hand, and the number of ways to use the wind-breaking knife was killed towards Zhang Zhutou, seeing that he was about to kill, he couldn't help but see where there was the shadow of the old man in front of him, fists and feet followed, Zhang Zhutou's figure was like a ghost haunting Tong Tianyang, and any move didn't seem to touch him, but it was everywhere.

I thought it would be a fight, but I didn't expect that I couldn't even touch his body, so I immediately stopped, "Old man Zhang, it's really a good body!"

"Generally speaking, if your third uncle makes a move, the old man has already been defeated!" Zhang Zhutou laughed, pointed to the ground and said, "Look at the ground, that is the mystery of gossip and walking in the heavens!"

Hearing this, Tong Tianyang was completely stunned, on the bluestone brick that had nothing to do, a gossip map stepped on with footprints suddenly appeared, and the texture on this picture was clearly visible, and it felt like it was carved out with a knife.

This body method, this skill, is so good.

"Please also ask my seniors to teach me!" Tong Tianyang, who was already in a very low posture, lowered his posture again, clenched his fists and bent over.
