Chapter 42: The Six Men in the Pen


At three poles in the sun, Sun Yihe and Huang Donglai finally got up.The two dressed and washed unhurriedly, went to the toilet, and then leisurely walked out of the Justice Gate and went to the street to have a "breakfast and lunch" together.After eating, the two of them walked back and came to the study hall where the "literary test" was held.During the whole process, they didn't care whether anyone saw it or not, anyway, they were as comfortable as in their own homes, as if they didn't take any "Young Heroes Club" in their eyes......

The disciples in the Righteous Sect are familiar with the two of them, and they know that these two goods have always been like this, but those outsiders who came to the meeting today saw this scene, and they inevitably muttered in their hearts, they really couldn't tell whether Sun and Huang were in too good a state of mind, or no one in their eyes......

Halfway through, the literary examination part of the Young Heroes Club is finally about to begin.The courtyard of justice is deep and wide, and it is not a problem to sort out a study hall that can accommodate more than 100 people in the door; In fact, there were less than 100 young people who came to participate in the conference this time, but the number of elders from various sects who came to visit or sit in the town was even larger.Of course, those who come to visit are not allowed to enter the study hall, just as parents cannot follow their children into the examination room; So when the young heroes were "examining", these people were all temporarily rested in another place to meet guests, and the master of the Shen Sect would invite them to a meal later.Unlike other young heroes who sat down early, Sun Yihui and Huang Donglai almost stepped on the study hall they entered, and they were still picking their teeth when they entered the house."

Hey!

Brother Sun, Brother Huang, here, I still have a seat here!

”At this moment, only Lei Buji, who lacked heart, was embarrassed to greet them loudly.Maybe it's because this guy lacks heart, several seats around him are empty, and no one wants to sit with him.And Sun Yihe and Huang Dongzi didn't mind, and the two walked to the two empty seats next to Lei Buji and sat down.So ......

Lei Buji, who was not too eye-catching, suddenly became an "outlier" in the eyes of everyone, and compared with Sun and Huang, Lei Buji, a kid who didn't know his origin at all, was even more suspicious."

Uh-huh."

Seeing that everyone had arrived, an old man sitting in the hall who looked and dressed like a teacher cleared his throat and said, "Don't make any more noise...... " he said, glancing at the man from the Justice Gate beside him, "You can send the test questions down." ”When the disciples received the order, they went over and divided the dozens of rolls of paper stacked on the lectern into several parts, picked them up, and handed them out to each of the tables where people were already seated."

The paper, ink, pen and inkstone are now ready, and you can use them at will."

While handing out the papers, the old gentleman said slowly, "The question has been written on the paper, and you are directly handing it in, but you have to go out after handing it in." ”His tone and demeanor were relaxed when he said this, but there was always a hint of alertness in his eyes; In fact, from the moment the young heroes entered this room, he had been watching each and every one of them with a burning eye.And some sit on the "iron-faced scholar" Qiao Chengshu.This Qiao Lao's martial arts are not very high, and he can barely be regarded as a "second-rate master", but he has always been known for his integrity and fairness, and his literary talent is extraordinary; When he was young, Qiao Chengshu was also admitted to Gongsheng, but later for various reasons, he broke away from his career and came to walk in the rivers and lakes.The examiners of the "literary examination" of several Young Heroes Associations were also served by Qiao Lao, so this time Shen Youran also invited him.Qiao Chengshu is one of the few people who have both been involved in the accident and are full of economy, and his questions are naturally based on the situation and the person.To put it more bluntly - he also knows that most of you sons and daughters of the rivers and lakes have a limited level of education, and they will not come up with the kind of questions to embarrass you, but will give you questions that suit you.For example, this year, his topic is: Where will you be in 20 years, and how many times will you have different paths.This question, there is no fixed answer, it is an open question to imagine the future, mainly let you children think about what the rivers and lakes will be like when you are no longer young one day, and where you will eventually go.The person who answers the question can not only infer the situation of the future martial arts according to his own understanding of the rivers and lakes, but also use his own literary style to make long speeches and generous statements, in short, how to answer......

Anyway, there is no such thing as "failing" in this "literary test", but it will be ranked according to your answers, which will pave the way for your "competition" the next day: those who have good results in today's literary examination will be ranked in the upper reaches of the competition promotion table, and they can play a few less, and even if they lose as soon as they appear, they can also get a good final ranking; As for those who are poor in the literary test, they have to start from the bottom of the promotion table and go up, which requires high physical strength and force, of course, as long as your martial arts are strong enough, you can still get a good ranking and even win the championship in theory.Sun Yihe and Huang Donglai are so fearless because they know this rule, or because they know that "even if they hand in a blank paper today, they can participate in the competition tomorrow as usual".Take a step back......

Even if they really finished at the bottom of the list this time, they didn't care very much.Because they came out this time just to think of the long knowledge on the rivers and lakes, and no one set them a goal such as how high the ranking must be.Although Huang Donglai's father mentioned it in the letter before, it just asked him not to embarrass the family, and this is ......

Huang Donglai had already done it on the way to Luoyang through chivalrous deeds; As for Sun Yihuan, not to mention, as long as he can return home alive, his father will be very satisfied.Therefore, the mood of these two people when answering the question is still relatively relaxed.Huang Donglai first wrote about his ideals, he thought that he would become a character like "Jianghu Bai Xiaosheng" in the future, that is, a professional commentator; And in order to prove that he is very talented in this area, he wrote six names according to his understanding of the general trend of today's martial arts, they are: Shen Youran, the master of the Luoyang Justice Gate, Yue You, one of the four masters of the imperial court's "Wind and Clouds, Water and Moon", Meng Qi, the young owner of Yuxiu Villa, Di Buti, the leader of the Cao Gang, Dugu Yong, the "Defeated Dragon Sword" of the Jinling Sword King's Mansion, and the "Three-eyed Voice" Wu Shenzi of the Kunlun faction.Huang Donglai predicted that the next twenty years of martial arts would be the world of these six people; Because in the age range between thirty and forty years old, combining various factors such as martial arts, prestige, sect background, and power, these six people are obviously the six most promising figures in today's martial arts.At this time, Huang Donglai didn't know that none of the six people he was optimistic about today had lived for five years since the day he wrote his name......

And several deaths are directly related to him.Of course, that's another story......

On the other hand, Sun Yihu's answer is simpler, after all, he doesn't know how to write much, so he wrote a total of eight words - ups and downs, with the waves, only remembering the present dynasty.This is directly the lyrics in "A Laugh in the Sea" thrown to Qiao Lao, and what does he mean......

I pondered, probably "I'm like a fish who can only remember today's things, and I don't think about tomorrow's things, anyway, it's just a random wave."

After writing these eight words, Brother Sun handed in the paper and left, and when he left, he said hello to Huang Donglai and said that he would go to the place where he ate first.His behavior undoubtedly attracted the burning eyes of many young heroes around him, and successfully interfered with the mentality and quality of many people's answers when answering......

After Qiao Chengshu saw the answer handed in by Sun Yihuo, he just laughed dryly and didn't make any comments.If you think that Mr.

Qiao will be shocked after seeing this maverick answer and give Brother Sun a high ranking, then you are wrong......

Qiao Chengshu is not a pedantic literati like Xue Tui, he has seen a lot of illiterates like this who try to get by by by being unconventional, and he will not be fooled.Therefore, I can tell you here that Sun Yihuan was later ranked in the penultimate layer of the promotion table of the competition, and he ............

If there is a way, it is long if there is a book, and if there is no book, it is short, and half an hour will pass in the blink of an eye.After the young heroes finished the literary examination, it was already noon, they left the study hall, and they met with the heroes from all walks of life, and had lunch in the Justice Gate, and everyone left after the banquet was dismissed.As for the results of the essay test, it will not be announced until the next day, and for the sake of fairness, Qiao Lao will not be seen during the review.In this way, the 14th day of August passed without any disturbance.Early the next morning, the Justice Gate posted the results of yesterday's literary examination and the promotion table of today's competition.Who's answering the question well is clear on this table......

Huang Donglai's ranking is quite high, but until the time the list is released, he has been in a state of inability to exercise, and it seems that he is going to be pitted by the elixir he has refined......

He was also ready to abstain when it was his turn.And Sun Yihuan's ranking, as mentioned above, even though he took a bite of "mother's chicken" after seeing the results, but the whole world knows that the goods were handed over in less than three minutes, and no one will think that he is worthy of sympathy.Considering that the ring competition will take a long time, shortly after the list is released this morning, the highlight of the Young Heroes Club, the "martial arts test", begins.The ring for the contest had been set up a few days earlier, and of course the location was chosen inside the helm of the Justice Gate; Setting up a street fight is risky after all......

In case some people from the evil sect mix in and make trouble among the people watching the excitement, the crowd will be crowded, the scene will be difficult to control, and the casualties will be difficult to estimate.Besides, there are so many people from all major sects who come to watch the battle, and there is basically no extra space around the ring.At three o'clock in the morning, all the people and horses were ready on the edge of the ring, and on the main seat with the best sight and the highest position, there were eight master-level masters led by Shen Youran, who were not only witnesses of this competition, but also on-site referees.The rules of the martial arts test are very simple, only the winner is divided, life and death are not decided, and the rest can be done.For example, if you accidentally beat someone to a minor injury, it is also allowed, after all, the fists and feet are ruthless, the sword has no eyes, and it is not wrong to "stop at the point", but if you don't even let the skin and flesh be cut, then this martial arts can't be compared.However, it hurts people's lives, causes disabilities, and invalidates people's martial arts......

That's not going to work.If someone commits the above-mentioned malicious behavior on stage, you don't need to do it with your fellow people in the rivers and lakes, and most of the people in your own sect will rush up to abolish your martial arts, disable you and even hurt your life for the sake of the reputation of the sect......

In addition, it is worth mentioning that the category of "all the rest" also includes the use of hidden weapons......

Because some sects practice hidden weapons, you don't let them use them at all, which is a bit unfair; Therefore, use it, don't quench the poison, don't blind the opponent's eyes."

Everyone, the competition in the ring starts now!"

Seeing that the hour was almost up, at Shen Youran's signal, a disciple in charge of presiding over the Justice Gate quickly stepped onto the stage and let out a shout in his high-pitched voice."

Today, in the first competition, Wang Chun, a disciple of the four bags of beggars, played against ......

Lei is not jealous. ”
