Chapter Seventy-Four: Written Examination
The written test is the most important part of a person's thinking and character, whether this person is old and persistent, or pioneering and enterprising, whether it is empty talk on paper, or pragmatic. It can be reflected in the written test.
However, Ma Yu still hesitated: "Uncle Shi, now that the disciples are still young, is it a little early to test them?"
"If you don't take the exam early, you will know, besides, when you see you old at the age of three, as long as you have a good ideological direction, even if you can't grasp the details accurately, it's nothing. They are basically the same age, and it is basically fair to pluck the eldest son among the short. Zhao Xuan glanced at the disciples who were struggling to write below, and replied in a low voice.
At this time, the written test has begun, and it is in this Chongyang Palace. gave them a total of two hours, and Zhao Xuan and Ma Yu personally invigilated and graded the papers, and they could only look at the disciples themselves.
These disciples obviously had prepared for the previous martial arts competition in the past few days, and after sending out the pen, ink, paper, and inkstone, they started writing directly, but there were also a few who wrote and suddenly frowned, as if they couldn't write anymore.
Zhao Xuan turned a blind eye, leisurely walked around the hall, stopping behind a certain disciple from time to time, glancing at his "test paper", and then did not express any opinions, and continued to watch behind the next disciple.
Two hours have passed, and some disciples have finished writing and are proofreading, while some disciples are still writing and drawing.
Ma Yu walked up to everyone and said, "Okay, the written test is over, let's go out to eat." After I finish reviewing with your uncles and ancestors, I will have the next competition. ”
When the disciples were ordered to go out, some of them were overjoyed, and they were obviously very confident in their answers, while some of the disciples sighed, and it seemed that they were not satisfied with themselves.
After everyone left, Ma Yu instructed the disciples who did not participate in the assessment to bring food to him and Zhao Xuan. After summarizing the test papers, he couldn't help but smile bitterly: "Uncle Shi, it seems that this is also a big project." ”
Zhao Xuan smiled and said nothing, he actually took out a few sheets from the test paper, took out the first one and handed it to Ma Yu, and said, "You take a look at this one first." ”
Ma Yu looked suspicious, took the test paper in his hand and watched, but gradually, his eyebrows couldn't help wrinkling.
This written test is a disciple's plan for the future development direction of the Quanzhen Sect, and although the disciple who answered the questionnaire is not empty talk on paper, it is full of words.
For example, it is written that you can borrow from the imperial court, from other sects, from the peasants, in short, through guò, and finally develop the Quanzhen Sect. Let's not say that this has deviated from the true meaning of Taoism, that is, the Quanzhen Sect has become the number one religion in the world at this time, how can it take advantage of it?
"Although this son is resourceful, he doesn't have enough vision and energy, so he can't be in charge. Ma Yu thought for a moment and said.
Zhao Xuan nodded and said, "Do you know who this person is?"
Ma Yu shook his head, these test papers are all based on the imperial examination system, and the name on each one is glued with a seal by the disciple himself, if you just look at the handwriting, he can't tell who it is.
Zhao Xuan smiled when he saw this: "You can just uncover it." ”
Ma Yu raised his forehead and said: "But the disciple is confused, since this test paper has been determined to be incomprehensible, then it's nothing." As he spoke, he opened the seal with his hand, and when he saw the name, he couldn't help but sigh softly: "It's Zhijing's child?" The tone was very incredible, as if he didn't expect that it was his favorite disciple who wrote such an article.
Zhao Xuan smiled slightly, noncommittal, picked up another test paper and handed it to Ma Yu, and said, "You can take a look at this one again." ”
Ma Yu didn't hesitate, took it and watched it in his hand, and couldn't help but nod while looking at it: "This disciple is not bad, he has a broad vision and extraordinary energy. ”
It turned out that this second scroll pointed out that the Quanzhen Sect was already the largest sect in the world, and its future development would only be determined by recruiting a wide range of disciples and forming good relationships. It's hard to imagine that it was written by a hot-blooded young man of seventeen or eighteen. However, in the end, Ma Yu couldn't help frowning, and said, "This disciple is a little taken for granted, and even said, 'Practice martial arts diligently, as long as martial arts are the first, you can keep the true sect from declining'." Although there is some truth in the use of this remark in the rivers and lakes, the real great sect can actually be supported by a few masters? If it does not cultivate morality and does not stress benevolence and righteousness, no matter how great the sect is, it will perish. Although this disciple is old and persistent, he is too conceited about himself, and he is not a good choice for the head of the family. "At the end of the day, it's like choosing a successor.
Zhao Xuan still smiled when he heard this, and said: "He is too high in martial arts, he has never encountered an opponent, as long as he suffers some setbacks in the future and trains more, he will not be blind and arrogant." ”
Ma Yu's heart moved when he heard this, and he opened the seal, and sure enough, the three big characters "Li Zhichang" were written on the name column.
At this time, Zhao Xuan handed him another test paper and said, "You can take a look at this one again." ”
Ma Yu didn't wait for Zhao Xuan to finish speaking, he had already taken it in his hand and looked at it carefully, nodded his head while looking at it, and said, "This disciple is good, pragmatic, and broad-minded. It is clear that the prestige of my Quanzhen No. 1 Great Sect is not in martial arts, but in winning the hearts of the people. Our Quanzhen Sect has always been based on protecting the people, strictly abiding by the rules and precepts, treating people kindly, saving the people, being loyal to the liver and righteous courage, serving the country and the people, and naturally helping oneself with God's help. As long as it continues to develop like this, everyone will be convinced, and the people will love it......" In the end, I couldn't help but open the seal, looked at the name on it, and couldn't help but be surprised: "It's Zhiping, this kid, I didn't expect him to be so knowledgeable at such a young age!"
Not only did you not expect it, even I didn't think it was good at first!Zhao Xuan couldn't help but complain in his heart.
Who would have thought that a well-known prostitute would be the most knowledgeable and far-sighted one of the Quanzhen Sect?
I really don't understand why Yin Zhiping has such a broad mind and can't think of giving Xiaolongnu to xxoo for a while in the future!
Is it just that you can't break the beauty level?
Just when Zhao Xuan was complaining, Ma Yu's eyes suddenly lit up, staring at the last test paper in his hand, and said, "Is there a better disciple than Zhiping's remarks?"
Zhao Xuan came back to his senses and said with a strange smile: "Take a look for yourself." Very playfully stuffed into Ma Yu's hands.
Ma Yu was puzzled in his heart, he really couldn't understand where Zhao Xuan's weird smile came from, but when he saw the words on the test paper, he finally couldn't help but be stunned for a while, only to see it written:
"To develop a sect, it is natural to accept more disciples, and then the disciples will accept more disciples, and then it will naturally grow......
And then it's gone!
It's gone!!
Ma Yu was speechless for a long time, and coughed dryly: "This disciple ...... Well, this disciple...... Ahem...... This disciple said very well, as long as there are many people, it is naturally the best development. ”
Zhao Xuan looked at Ma Yu's red old face, and finally couldn't help laughing, and said, "This is a female disciple's 'clever' opinion!"
Female disciple? Ma Yu's heart moved, the female disciples of the Quanzhen Sect all belonged to Sun Buer's disciples, he thought of this, immediately opened the seal, and after seeing the name on it, he finally couldn't help but show a helpless wry smile, and said: "Sure enough, it is this Cheng Yaojia, she is a disciple who was accepted the year before the second year, she is the eldest lady of a wealthy family, and she is the most shy, and she will blush even when she talks to her brothers." Originally, she didn't live in the church, but she came to see her master twice a year, and this time she happened to be absent...... I should have thought it was her, and I'm afraid no one else could write such an answer except her. ”
Zhao Xuan smiled and said, "I'm still curious about such a disciple, why did she participate in this selection? ”
Ma Yu shook his head and said, "I don't know about this, but I think I was forced by the sisters and sisters." Among the two disciples, there are indeed a few who can't be idle. ”
Zhao Xuan smiled and didn't care, that Cheng Yaojia was just a supporting role, and finally married Lu Guanying. The ending was good, but it didn't attract his attention.
"Why did Uncle Shi just take these test papers?" Ma Yu suddenly asked.
Zhao Xuandao: "These test papers can be said to be the representative of the development direction of all test papers. Headed by Zhao Zhijing, they all pay attention to taking advantage of the situation, but the detailed planning is not as good as Zhao Zhijing; the headed by Li Zhichang can be summarized as a faction of guarding, and they also do not have Zhichang's extensive knowledge; and Yin Zhiping headed by Yin Zhiping also pay attention to protecting the people and serving the country and the people, and they are also like the first two, which are not as good as Yin Zhiping's; and as for the ...... headed by Cheng Yaojia Just watch and play, although it's not as outrageous as hers, it's also unrealistic, and it's no different from nonsense. As he spoke, he waved his palms, only to see that those test papers were windless and automatic, and they were divided into four stacks. Raising his chin lightly, he motioned for Ma Yu to step forward and inspect: "I have already divided the categories for you, as for how to admit, it depends on how you choose." ”
Ma Yu was no longer surprised at this time, he didn't care how Zhao Xuan could memorize the content of each test paper in such a short time, let alone doubt it, and said after a while: "According to the disciple's opinion, Zhiping should be the first in this written test. And Zhi Chang's words, although there are some flaws, can be temporarily set as the second place, as for the third place......" He thought for a while, shook his head and said: "Although Zhi Jing's words are feasible, they are inconsistent with the meaning of my Taoist scriptures, and I can only choose one of the best test papers in the same stack of test papers as Comrade Ping." ”
Zhao Xuan shook his head and said: "You don't have to worry about me, then Li Zhichang really needs to polish it, and this time I will sharpen his sharpness first." He waved his hand and picked out two of Yin Zhiping's stacks, and said, "I think these two people are good." ”
Ma Yu took it in his hand, looked at it carefully, nodded with satisfaction, opened the seal and saw only one named Cui Zhifang, a disciple of Taiguzi Hao Datong, and the other named Qi Zhicheng, a disciple of Tan Chuduan, the eldest son.
At this time, the disciple who delivered the meal had just returned, and after Zhao Xuan and Ma Yu had eaten, Yin Zhiping was set as the first in the written test, Qi Zhicheng was set as the second in the written test, and Cui Zhifang was set as the third in the written test, and then began to prepare for the questions of the Dao test
