Chapter 25 Literary Examination
Following.
The weather is clear and the wind is smooth.
The sun is shining, the pale golden sunlight falls on the tender green branches and buds, and the spring color climbs up the branches charmingly, and the mighty procession of thousands of people winds up the rugged mountain road under the guidance of the disciples of Shushan Mountain one after another.
Along the way, there are many temples, stone bridges and waterfalls, cedars attract guests, beautiful mountains and strange stones, beautiful, there are more ethereal clouds and ups and downs between the mountains, for a time it seems to be in a fairyland, which is amazing.
Thousands of people walked for a long time, only to see the bluestone white wall stretching away halfway up the mountainside, the stone wall is more than two feet high, stretching away like a huge embrace to hold the mountain in the arms.
In the center, one side of the blue door is three zhang high, two vermilion bronze doors are open, and the plaque with gold on a blue background on the top is written with the word "Haoyue", and the pen walks the dragon and snake, shining brightly.
At the door, there were two rows of Shushan disciples in green clothes with swords, all of them heroic and awe-inspiring, and at the door, Jing Ye stood in the bustling crowd and saw the six people who came down the mountain yesterday.
Mu Wanrong naturally stood in the most eye-catching place in the center, today she changed into a white tight long skirt, her hair was tied in a bun, the ribbons were fluttering, and her cold face was like a thousand-year-old snow lotus blooming on a snowy mountain, making people dare not look directly.
Thousands of people crowded in front of the mountain gate, and the voices were loud, so they gave Mu Wanrong a drink: "Quiet!" suddenly quieted down, not daring to make a mistake.
I only heard Mu Wanrong say: "This Shushan election, a total of 1,637 people, before the literary examination, you need to verify your realm before you can enter the Yuequan Square to participate in the literary examination, now everyone is divided into four groups, each group of 420 people, now there are names on the red list to the Yuequan Square to verify the realm, and after passing, they will enter the venue to participate in the literary examination."
As she spoke, she waved her jade hand, and a red list slowly appeared in the void, with rows of names written on it.
As soon as the red list came out, the people below were nervous for a while, and hurriedly looked for their names, and after a long time, the old man Du next to Jing Ye first said excitedly: "There is my name, there is my name, Du Fei, the twelfth line!"
Du Fei was amazed, Jing Ye and Zhou Tianbao glanced at each other, the first red list did not have the names of the two of them, and followed the many people on the four sides to enter the Haoyue Mountain Gate first.
Jing Ye only heard some outlines about the opening of Shushan Mountain on the way, but he didn't know anything about many details, so he asked Zhou Tianbao: "Do you know the specific process of the Shushan election, what is the literary test, and what is the martial arts test?"
Zhou Tianbao was stunned, glanced at Jing Ye, and said leisurely: "The literary examination is naturally a moral article, it is all a matter of face, and the people who revise the paper are also disciples of Shushan Ink Sword, I have already done it, and the three of us can definitely pass this level."
"Okay, that's okay, isn't this cheating?"
"You don't have to thank me, since ancient times, it has been bustling and profitable, but the martial arts test is reliable and true, although I have also made a bloody investment, but I can shoot a leak and can't enter the Great Sun Peak", Zhou Tianbao said, revealing a little melancholy.
"Do you want to enter the Great Sun Peak?" this time Jing Ye was even more surprised, this time the three main peaks only recruited more than 60 people, it is not easy to enter the main peak, and it is even more difficult to enter the Great Sun Peak, but I didn't expect Zhou Tianbao to look like a hanger, and his ambition is not small.
Seeing Zhou Tianbao nodding, Jing Ye asked, "Then are you sure?"
Zhou Tianbao was stunned for a moment, and said in a deep voice: "Seven or eight out of ten, you also have to work hard, even if you go to other peaks, it is also a great opportunity, if you are favored by the master, there will be thousands of resources smashed on your body, and when the time comes, it will not be much worse than the disciples of the main peak, but I know that there are many amazing and brilliant people in the two peaks of Lingyin."
Hearing this, Jing Ye was puzzled, the world knows, there are six peaks in Shu Mountain, in addition to the main peak of the day, Haoyue, comet, and there are three peaks ethereal, Lingyin, purple bamboo.
At the foot of the previous mountain, Mu Wanrong said that Shu Mountain accepted apprentices, and there were only five peaks, and what Zhou Tianbao said only mentioned five peaks.
What about the sixth peak, Zizhu?
Jing Ye vaguely remembers that he read through the Daozang in the Yuhua Valley that day, and there was a record that the Zizhu Peak in the six peaks of Shu Mountain was once famous, and there was a peerless sword immortal back then, and the swordsmanship was unique and different, and the name shook the East and the earth.
Jing Ye thought about it, so he asked Zhou Tianbao: "Isn't the Sixth Peak Zizhu recruiting disciples?"
Zhou Tianbao didn't seem to understand, when did Shushan have a sixth peak, and when his father was in Shushan, it didn't seem to have a sixth peak.
However, when he heard the word "Zizhu", Zhou Tianbao laughed: "It seems that brother, you are really lonely and unheard, as early as hundreds of years ago, Zizhu Peak existed in name only in Shushan, and now although the mountain gate is still there, it is unattended, it is strange to say, in the past few hundred years, Shushan has never had the idea of restoring Zizhu."
"Oh", Jing Ye responded, quite surprised, and thought to himself, he didn't expect that the Zizhu Peak that had shocked the world was gone.
Jing Ye asked Zhou Tianbao a lot of trivial things about Shu Mountain, Zhou Tianbao couldn't leave ten sentences and eight sentences, the girl of Comet Peak was beautiful, the two talked and laughed and laughed unconsciously, an hour passed quietly, and at this time, the closed vermilion door opened again.
Some people are like a spring breeze, complacent, and when they come out, they are ecstatic and shout: "It's over, it's over!"
There are also people who cry and mourn, sigh again and again, and lament: "Ten years, it shouldn't be, it shouldn't be."
Jing Ye and Zhou Tianbao were standing, Du Fei's face was red, and when he saw them from afar, he shouted: "Two brothers, the old man has passed, I really can't imagine it."
When he arrived in front of the two of them, he swept the people around him, and then lowered his voice and said: "It's so strange, when I was making an article, I took the beast chapter of "Geographical Chronicles", but I didn't know at all, I wrote three words and two words hastily, I was very desperate at the time, how did I know that after the exam was announced, I actually passed."
Jing Ye smiled and said nothing, Zhou Tianbao said disapprerovitically: "Look at you stupid, uncle, it's better to prepare for the martial arts test."
Du Laoxi smiled, nodded again and again, and followed Mu Wanrong to appear again, waving the red list, this time Jing Ye's name was finally listed, but Zhou Tianbao still didn't wait.
Jing Ye said goodbye to Du Fei and Zhou Tianbao, and followed everyone into the bluestone door, as soon as he stepped into the door, he was taken aback, and what appeared in front of him was a huge square that occupied a radius of more than ten miles.
What's even more incredible is that this square is paved with white jade, a blue and transparent crescent moon spring can be seen in the center, and in the center of the square within a radius of several miles, there are more than 100 optimus stone pillars, the stone pillars are straight through the sky, I am afraid that there are dozens of zhang, the dragon and phoenix are carved on it, lifelike, at first glance, you will feel that the momentum is overwhelming, majestic and extraordinary.
On the east side of the square, there were hundreds of wooden tables and futons, which should be the examination room for the literary examination, Jing Ye followed the crowd and did not go directly to the examination room.
But in front of a stone wall near the mountain peak stone bridge behind the square, there are already more than 20 disciples of Shushan divided into left and right, this stone wall is transparent like a realm, white and flawless, more than one zhang high, but there are 100 zhang long, the corner is surrounded by colorful clouds, beautiful.
On the far right of Jing Ye's standing, you can see a vertical line of three words "Shen Shen Wall", Jing Ye has read a lot of books, naturally knows the use of the stone wall, the so-called Shen Shen Wall, is through the stone wall to reflect the realm of monks.
Looking up, the spiritual root, the divine sea, the Yuan Dan, the spiritual crown, etc. appeared, which is enough to explain the realm of the monk.
Everyone was in an uproar, and the voice of Zhuang Huandie came from behind them: "Fellow Daoists, please go in groups of 100 people to the Divine Wall to visualize the Divine Sea, and if the Divine Sea appears, it will be considered passed, and you can go to the venue to participate in the literary examination."
Jing Ye stood in the first group, Zhuang Huan Butterfly was beside him, I don't know if this woman was intentional or unintentional, when Jing Ye stood still, her eyes kept falling on Jing Ye, waiting for Jing Ye Shenhai to appear.
Jing Ye watched the people beside him show their gods one by one, visualizing the divine sea, but he hesitated in his heart, for fear of exposing the divine sea more than ten zhang wide, and in a few breaths, more than ten people showed their gods successfully.
Jing Ye was anxious, gritted his teeth, and looked at the wall.
Clinker, in an instant, the Shenshen Wall in front of the Jingye suddenly lit up, shining, and the bright light directly illuminated half of the Shenshen Wall.
"What's going on?" The male disciple who was observing on the side was startled.
Jing Ye hurriedly reined in the Shenhai and shouted in his heart.
Zhuang Huandie's eyebrows beside him were all surprised, and he was stunned for a while, and when he saw the male disciple who was observing coming over, he said: "Senior brother, don't worry, I think there are Tianzong talents among these people, and the Divine Wall will be like this, this group has passed, and you can go to the literary exam."
Hearing Zhuang Huandie's words, Jing Ye calmed down and followed everyone to the venue, there was already a word from Zhou Tianbao, Jing Ye was not worried.
However, Jing Ye still wrote more than 10,000 words freely, because the title has a bit of deep meaning, talking about the pharmacological mysteries, Jing Ye Wensi springs up, and he can't stop mentioning the pen, and he says the pharmacological mysteries thoroughly.
When the results came out, as Jing Ye expected, it was naturally over.
Jing Ye went out of the gate of Haoyue Peak and went down the mountain with Du Fei, Zhou Tianbao had already explained before he entered, he came back later, and on the way, Jing Ye asked Du Fei about the content of the martial arts test.
The martial arts test and the literary test are generally in charge of the Shushan Ink Sword disciples, and only a list of more than 300 people is set before the disciples are selected by the Wufeng elders, and the so-called martial arts test is just to measure the monk's talent through the magic weapon spirit stone.
After the scene in front of today's god wall, Jing Ye really pinched a cold sweat in his heart, he didn't want to simply worship in Shushan to learn Taoism.
When he came to Shushan, he had only one purpose, revenge.
A sea of blood feud.
The five jades of Shushan and Zhao Yannan of the ink sword are all on the list in his heart.
Therefore, this night, he didn't close his eyes for a moment, sorted out the pharmacological clues, refined the elixir, and tried his best to find a way to cover the chaotic body.
Hard-working people, the sky does not bear to pay, after thousands of strands of searching, the thorn leaves get what they want, there is a misty mist above the sea of gods, the five-petal spirit root, and only the wood spirit root is dazzling, and the ordinary magic weapon spirit stone is difficult to monitor.
After resting for two hours, it was already dawn.
The martial arts test was held in the first peak of Shu Mountain, Dari Peak, and the survey square.
