Each examination area has a guard guard, every other section there is a stand, not ornaments, these people have a color between their eyebrows, obviously a veteran who has killed people, if there is really any accident, I am afraid that those children who try to make trouble will be killed on the spot as soon as possible. After the fact, there is no merit or fault.

This happened a few times in history, and gradually spread, and then it rarely happened.

In fact, candidates who want to cheat, even if they dodge these armor soldiers, they can't hide from the gods who are high up and patrolling back and forth.

But it stands to reason that the examiner still has to make a round.

Xu Jing walked gently through each test area. Be careful every step of the way, this exam is extremely important, if it is because of the sound of heavy footsteps that interrupt someone else's train of thought, it is a big mistake. In fact, there are no regulations on this matter, it is all a matter of personal quality, and if there are three big and five rough examiners, it is also a tragedy for the candidates.

Xu Jing soon came to the examination area where Liu Ping was, and deliberately stayed at the door of Liu Ping's examination room for a while, only to see that this pen walked the dragon and snake, the posture was splashed casually, the pen was like a god, and the words were full of charm, and I couldn't help but secretly marvel, sure enough, it was worthy of being accepted as a protégé by the prefect, which was extraordinary.

After a few more glances, Xu Jing turned to leave.

It was not until noon that Liu Pingfang stopped writing, at this time most of the exam papers had been written, and each exam paper was spread separately on the table, waiting for the ink to dry, and his stomach was a little hungry at this time. So he took out the food that his sister had prepared for him and ate it.

After eating, the ink was dry, and I continued to write, and after an hour, I finally finished writing.

After writing, check it carefully, whether there are typos, whether there are mistakes or omissions in sentences, although it rarely appears, but if there is an accident and it appears, it will deduct points.

This kind of low-level mistake, if it is made, is a big mistake.

After the inspection, there was no mistake missed, I nodded with satisfaction, put away the exam papers, and shrank into bed and fell asleep.

In the afternoon, the examiner inspected again, and when he saw that Liu Ping had actually fallen asleep, he was not only surprised—was this son finished writing, or did he give up on himself?

He didn't dare to remind him that this was the rule. As an examiner, he can't say a word to the candidates, and if the gods hear it, even if it's an inconsequential word, there is a danger of being cut off!

Approached silently, picked up Liu Ping's exam paper, although it was the second time to see, but still couldn't help but exclaim, this word is really good, has begun to have its own style, although compared to the famous artist, too young, but with this sign, it is only a matter of time before you become a calligrapher in the future.

shook his head and continued to read until he finished reading, Xu Jing was shocked again, and he really finished writing!

At this point in time, other candidates also wrote more than half of it quickly, but generally only half of it was written, and it was still necessary to finish it by fighting at night, but he had already finished it?

Slightly retracted his thoughts, quietly put down the exam papers, and turned to leave.

He didn't notice that Liu Ping, who had been squinting inside, was relieved and closed his eyes completely after he walked by.

This shijie has a god patrol, so it is rare for the examiner to splash ink and destroy the exam paper, but it is not uncommon, so it is naturally a little vigilant, after all, it is indispensable to guard against people.

On the morning of the second day, Liu Ping looked at the new exam questions, and did not rush to write, but checked all the exam questions before and after.

The center of these questions is Moyi, but there is a saying in the previous life that in the eyes of a thousand people, there are a thousand Hamlets, so it is not enough to explain the standard, and it is also necessary to take into account the thoughts of the questioner and the examiner, so that it is easy to pass.

It's hard to guess, but after synthesizing all the ink meanings of the exam papers, you can also see one or two.

This point is not very important in the county examination of Xiucai, but it has an impression bonus score, and he is really talented, and he can still pass, but his ranking is a little lower.

But when it comes to the exam, it becomes important, and luck is also very important. Even if you have unparalleled talent and the ability to get the top prize, if this is not right and your luck is insufficient, then don't think about taking the test.

These are things for the future, so let's not mention them for the time being, Liu Ping, who probably saw the meaning of the topic, immediately began to write......

In a blink of an eye, on the third day, Liu Ping looked at the topic of Jingyi, closed his eyes slightly, recalled the chapters and good articles he had read, and sorted out his thoughts. Although I remember, I can't copy it, or even learn from it, I must have my own thoughts, otherwise it will be the result of being kicked out.

Besides, the topic is fundamentally different, and even if you want to learn from it, there is no way.

This time, Liu Ping pondered for a full hour before opening his eyes.

There are a total of five articles to write about Jingyi, and there is no constraint on the eight-strand text, and it can be expressed at will, which is best for Liu Ping.

At noon, Liu Ping stopped his pen, waited for the ink to dry, carefully checked it, and then said, "Come on, I want to hand in the papers." ”

The soldier next to him glanced at Liu Ping in surprise, it is not impossible to submit the paper in advance, but few people do this, after all, for most people, only three days is not enough time, where is there any reason to submit the paper in advance?

Soon, the deputy examiner Lin Xiang came over, looked at Liu Ping in surprise, and asked, "Are you ready?"

"Alright. Liu Ping nodded.

"Then I'll put it away. Lin Xiang didn't dare to say more, sorted out the exam papers, and then put them in the box, then raised his head and said: "There will be a soldier to take you out, the footsteps are softer, don't disturb other candidates." ”

"The students know that. ”

Liu Ping slowly left the examination room with the book basket on his back, and when he passed by, many candidates raised their heads in surprise, why did this person go out early? Was he caught cheating, or was he finished? More candidates buried their heads in hard work, their expressions were focused, and they didn't notice anyone passing by at all.

After leaving the examination room, Liu Ping walked straight to the inn.

Looking at Xiao Er who was walking towards him, he thought for a while and said, "Bring me five dishes and one soup, three meat dishes, two vegetarian dishes, one fish soup, and a big bowl of rice, and send them to my room." ”

"Okay, this talented man, I'll be here soon!" Xiao Er shouted smartly, as long as he is a candidate, he will be happy when he hears these three words, right?

Shaking his head, Liu Ping went up to the fourth floor, came to the door of his room, and knocked on the door.

"Who is it?" said my sister's voice.

"It's me. ”

Liu Yue opened the door and said, "It's my brother, come and sit down." ”

Saying that, Liu Ping walked in, Liu Yue quickly took the book basket, put it aside, poured a full cup of tea and handed it to him.

Liu Ping took the tea and drank it in one gulp, his eyes were gloomy, and he didn't say much.

My sister also knew about her brother's pressure, so she didn't ask about the exam.

In the evening, Wang Hong also returned, his face was heavy, and he seemed to be under a lot of pressure.

The 3,000 examination papers were sorted out one by one and sent for trial overnight.

"Lord Xu, tomorrow is the day to review the exam papers, come over overnight tonight, Xia Guan really admires it. An official said to Xu Jing.

Xu Jing returned the salute with a smile and said, "Master Mo, aren't you the same? Being diligent in royal affairs and loyal to the court is the duty of my generation of officials." ”

"That's right, please, please. The official surnamed Mo hurriedly said.

So the two of them went in one after the other, and there were already many people inside at this time, and as soon as the two entered, they immediately greeted each other.

"I didn't expect all of you to come!" Xu Jing said with emotion: "Then let's start." ”

At the sound of an order, many sealed exam papers were opened. Begin to scrutinize it.

Three thousand exam papers, all accumulated together, is simply an astonishing number.

After the autumn, there are fifteen days for the list to be announced, and they must do it within fourteen days, and the time is very tight.

Five days later, 2,500 papers were abolished and declared unqualified.

Fifty papers were judged to be passed, while the other four hundred and fifty papers were judged to be qualified.

In the following days, it is necessary to carefully select the 100 examination papers that can pass among the 500 examination papers.

"Of the 2,500 exam papers, Wenqu Xingjun has judged that none of them are qualified, and the selection this time is much more refined than before, all of which are all due to you. As soon as Xu Jing's words came out, many officials present immediately breathed a sigh of relief.

As soon as this result came out, most of the task was completed.

Deputy examiner Lin Xiang sighed beside him: "However, the writing of the candidates this time is really shocking, and many exam papers have left me dumbfounded, and I need to think carefully about ......"

"Yes, this is a sign of the prosperity of the imperial court, and it is only inevitable that there will be many talents. Master Mo answered beside him.

These two sentences made many officials next to them nod at the same time, and the secret way was indeed the case.

"Although most of it is completed, it needs to be more strict and not slackened!"

"Yes!"

※※※※※※

The fifteenth day passed in a blink of an eye, and since the end of the exam, Liu Ping has not left the county town, and has been waiting for the day when the list will be released.

As time went by, the pressure became more and more intense, and at first I was able to go out and play with Liu Yue, but then I didn't have this mood.

"My brother will definitely be able to get in. Liu Yue said affirmatively.

"Hmm. Liu Ping nodded. At this time, the sun has not yet risen, and there is a huge wall downstairs, and after sunrise, the list will be opened, and the key to success or failure lies in this.

Countless people downstairs are sensational, all of them are children waiting for the list to be released, if they didn't come here early and occupy a place, I'm afraid they would have to be the same as those children.

Wang Hong walked over with a gloomy face, sat opposite Liu Ping, also turned his face to look down, sighed and said: "These days, the more I think about it, the more frightened I feel, after communicating with those children, I am more and more aware of the flaws in my article, and my confidence is becoming less and less. ”

"Why shouldn't I?" Liu Ping smiled, tapped his fingers on the table, poured a cup of tea, and at this moment, there was a sound of gongs and drums beating downstairs.

Immediately after that, I heard someone shouting, "It's time to release the list!!"

The thousands of children who were still in a noisy and boiling place just now fell silent in an instant, all staring at the huge list covered with red cloth, and even holding their breath.
