"Hey, this brute will also sigh, it's really rare, why don't you want to go back now?"
When the old horse heard this, he suddenly felt a spirit all over his body, looked at the figure in front of him, immediately knelt down, and said in a mouthful of words: "Master, let the little one live for a few years, just a few years, let me experience it a little deeper, do you think it's okay?"
"Okay, it's good to have this enlightenment, the master will naturally not disagree, just to just be in that kid, okay, I think you have been in contact for a lot of time, and you have some feelings, but don't forget, it's always the difference between immortals, don't embark on the path of cultivation, you can only be a mortal, this can't be changed, okay, you can do it yourself, I hope you understand more."

The old horse bowed gratefully, and after a while found that the master was gone, and finally didn't have to be nervous, a few more years is also a good thing, watching Ma Lang live a happy life is also the biggest joy, and he didn't care about anything again, while accompanying Ma Lang to read, while feeling the warmth of this land, it feels really good, and it can't be said in any words, and it can't be changed.
Whenever Ma Lang realizes that it is almost, after reading a book, the next book will appear, although Ma Lang feels very magical, but he does not find any movement, and he does not know what is going on, but then he will be able to go by the righteousness of the book, intoxicated, silently feel the meaning, and the temperament of the book's temperament gradually began to emerge in him.
On this day, Ma Lang led the old horse out of the house, but he was not timid, because he had already applied for the annual examination of Xiucai, as long as he passed, he could get the status of Xiucai, even if he didn't work, he could get the reward of the imperial court, which was the rule of the Tang Kingdom.
In the Tang Kingdom, as long as you can reach the age of twelve, you can start a free exam, but they are all child-level exams, it is not easy to pass, after all, you need to have a solid foundation, and if you want to cheat, it is even more difficult, don't forget that this is the world of cultivators, in the world of immortals, where can you let people cheat casually, if you catch it once, the consequences are very serious.
This year is Ma Lang's twelfth year old, naturally he is going to take the exam, as long as he passes this level, he can go to the level of Xiucai, and then to the people, tributes and jinshi, the first level is higher than the first level, of course, if you are knowledgeable, you can go to the skip exam, but someone needs to be promoted, otherwise those officials don't buy it much, so most of them are the first place to succeed.
This time his goal is to be the first place, and he wants to give it a try, because in this year, he feels a lot of things, and he knows that his level is okay, and it shouldn't be a problem, but he lacks the character of the guarantee, but if he can get the first place, then he will have the opportunity to participate in this Xiucai exam, and the success is naturally a direct promotion, and he will come back after three years of failure.
Skipping the level can only be crossed once, and it is impossible for you to cross it all at once, so this opportunity is very important.
In fact, it is said that it is free, yes, this time it is open to the entire Tang Kingdom, as long as you are twelve years old, you can basically participate, and some of you are in your seventies and eighties are taking exams, which can show that the status of literati in it is very important.
"Lao Ma, I will work hard, I will definitely succeed, get the first place this time, and then go to the township test, I will definitely pass, let's go." Ma Lang seemed to comfort the old horse, and seemed to comfort himself, in short, he was very excited in his heart.
The old horse lowered his head and stuck out his tongue and licked it, meaning that there is no need to be nervous, as long as he works hard, he will definitely succeed.
This made Ma Lang very happy, so he led the horse to the place of the annual examination, that is, in front of an academy in the small county town.
Many people have seen Ma Lang, because the distance is not far, many people have seen him, and some have seen him outside the private school, although intentionally or unintentionally, they are all laughing, as if to say that look at this guy is also here, but can't be too blunt, after all, this is the rule of the imperial court, and it can't be broken, otherwise they will be severely punished by the imperial court, especially its academy and parents.
This is naturally done to protect some self-taught people, which is not uncommon, so no matter how humble a person is, as long as he comes to take the exam, he cannot be insulted at will, otherwise he will be dissatisfied with the court, and the result is predictable.
The catcher in front of the academy walked over directly, glared at these people, and then said immediately: "Boy, who are you, are you here to take the annual exam, if the age has not yet arrived, or forget it, wait until the age to come?"
Although he knew that this was a good thing, Ma Lang still told his age and place of origin, reasoned and orderly, without the slightest cowardice, which shocked these catchers, it seems that they really came to participate in the annual exam, and then they did not refuse.
"In that case, Childe, please, your horse?" stretched out his hand and motioned for him to come in, but this horse could not enter.
"Uncle, look at my horse, can you put it here?" Ma Lang was still a little worried about his old horse.
"No problem, don't worry, Childe, we will take care of it for you, you go in first, everything is inside, you don't need to bring it." Catch quickly said casually, took the reins, signaled that he could go in, and also looked at him as if he was washed, he didn't take anything at all, he felt that he was talking too much, this is not good, who knows if he has real skills, and immediately stepped aside.
Ma Lang looked at Lao Ma, and then walked into the examination venue, although there was still some nervousness in his heart, but thinking of the blessings of the people in the village, and the sarcasm of his sister-in-law, how to say that he also had to take the test to show talent, which is the most unfortunate, of course, it is best to go directly to the test Xiucai, this is the foundation of the real Tang Dynasty, the foundation of civil officials, and then it is to raise people, and you can be an official.
With the incomparable confidence in his heart, he came to his exam desk, and then someone issued him pen, ink, paper, and inkstone, these are very complete, although they are all ordinary goods, but for him, it is extremely exciting, this is his first contact, the first time, he used to use branches to study on the ground, he must succeed, and there must not be any sloppiness.
As the candidates came in one by one, it opened his eyes, there are all kinds of people, all kinds of people exist, and the age is also eclectic, but one thing is certain, that is, it is very serious, and the importance of the exam is an opportunity.
"Everyone, wait a minute, the exam is about to start, here is a little louder, you must not cheat, otherwise if you are caught, the first time you will be considered lucky, but you will not be able to take the exam in the next three years, if it is the second time, or even the third time or more, I believe that some of you must have tasted it, I will not say much, for the newcomers, you must remember that you must not cheat. ”
"Yes, teacher, we will never cheat. A group of candidates shouted in unison, and I don't know how serious they were.
After reading out the idea of the regulations, someone immediately began to distribute the test papers, after all, it is just an annual exam, in fact, it is not difficult, but some people just can't grasp the main points, or simply come to try their luck, thinking that they can pass by knowing a few words, even if it is the annual exam, it will not be so simple, otherwise where can you choose talents casually, which is inevitable.
Ma Lang saw his test papers, and at first glance, it was quite simple, they were just some small knowledge points, and he had studied a lot of famous masterpieces now and had a preliminary understanding of them, which was really a bit pediatric, but he was still very cautious.
The first time I used the pen, I tried it carefully, and then I felt the difference between it and the branches, and finally I quickly wrote and answered.
The teacher who supervised the exam, seeing that the students were answering, was very happy, as for the older ones, they were really a little helpless, but they couldn't say anything, could they let them go back, they would definitely be severely punished.
For many years, they have not produced geniuses in Tianma County, and they have been pressed by other counties, and they are very angry in their hearts, but they don't have the ability to force people to become geniuses in the academy, and they have failed again and again, and they can only be said to really can't become geniuses.
Looking at this batch of candidates, I don't know what the result will be, I glanced back inattention, suddenly his eyes froze, and then he stood up slowly, walked around casually, and then came to a candidate, and then looked at it, the words were still good, although it was a little awkward, but it was not good to force it, and then looked at the answer, and suddenly felt shocked in my heart, how could this little guy answer it so quickly.
With the candidate's quick answer, as a supervisor, he naturally nodded knowingly, yes, really good, such a candidate is a candidate, and then I want to see which college it is, but look at this person, why haven't I seen it, the clothes are not from a wealthy family, nor is it a person in the academy, is it a self-taught person, it is really amazing, amazing.
Quickly wrote down this little guy, and then happily returned to his place, his heart was greatly relieved, there was finally a little guy, although it was just a quick look, but I could feel that this kid had good knowledge, although the words were not very good, but it can be seen that he was unfamiliar, obviously not very often practiced pen, or the first time he couldn't say it, not simple, not simple.
After answering the last question, I looked at it, my name and place of origin were written, and the others were written, and I was very satisfied with it, and then I looked at the others, and it seemed that they were still writing in distress, is it so difficult?
Although I have read a lot of books and can understand a lot of truths, after all, I haven't experienced many of these things, so I naturally don't know the difficulties.
