I'm a scumbag

Chapter 214 The title has all changed【6000 Subscription】

Bai Yaoyao directly chose to ignore Ning Chen's teasing.

This made Ning Chen feel bored again.

In a blink of an eye, it was the first day of February.

After breakfast, Ning Chen and Bai Yaoyao also followed the crowd to the foot of Mount Dai.

There is fog in the early morning, which makes Daishan more ethereal and immortal.

It was the first time for Ning Chen to see the highest mountains in this world.

Ning Chen looked at Mount Dai hidden in the clouds and mists on the top of the mountain, but he wasn't as shocked as he imagined.

Because Ning Chen felt that if commercial development was left behind.

The Five Sacred Mountains of my own country are no worse than those of the Wu Dynasty in terms of momentum and breadth.

It's just because there are too many commercial developments, so there is less ethereal air.

Also because there is no commercial development, the road up the mountain is also much more difficult.

The road to Zhu's house is okay, first of all it is on the south slope.

The sun is very good, and secondly, because the Zhu family's semi-sage was consecrated here.

So the road he walked was soaked in the holy will and became much smoother.

The official road on the north slope is not only without sunlight, but even the road needs to be opened by itself.

There are two roads in the east and the west, and the situation is similar.

Moreover, the owners of the east and west roads are not fixed.

The masters of these two paths will be selected once a year.

Participants were major academies, Confucian and Taoist families, and semi-holy families in the thirteen states.

Basically, it is a situation where Fengshui takes turns, and there has never been a situation where anyone has occupied the east and west for a long time.

This year, it is Yunshan Academy and another semi-holy family, the Zhang family, who control the east and west roads.

It is precisely because these two major forces are in charge this year that they dare to challenge the Zhu family at this juncture.

Otherwise, if you change to an academy and aristocratic family with no background, you will never dare to challenge the Zhu family at this juncture.

The background of the semi-holy family can only be challenged by existences of the same level.

Of course, Ning Chen believes that Wu Zhao should also participate in such a challenge.

It's just that Ning Chen didn't know what he promised.

Anyway, everyone's interests are the same, and the promised things should not be too heavy.

The venue of the Xiaowen Club is not different for each of the four schools.

Instead, they are all concentrated on a flat open space at the foot of the southern slope.

Naturally, this open space also appeared because of the semi-sage of the Zhu family.

The Zhu family took it out for everyone to use, so naturally it wasn't as great and upright as they said.

Show your heritage and attract talents.

This is also the purpose of the Zhu family.

If any family wants to continue its glory for a long time, it must be continuously replenished with fresh blood.

Even if it is a half-holy family, the same is true.

Especially after the establishment of Yunshan Academy, after they were driven to Luanzhou, it became very difficult to attract talents to join.

Here in Daishan, it can be said that the Zhu family is the safest and most effective place to attract talents.

When Ning Chen and Bai Yaoyao arrived, the place was already full of people.

But not everyone can enter the core area.

First of all, you have to have righteousness and prove that you are a Confucianist before you can enter.

While going in, you will also get a chip.

The role of raising cards does not mean how many numbers you have.

There is only one function of raising cards, when you choose a topic.

You need to hand over your chips.

If you fail, the chip will not be returned to you.

That is to say, there is only one opportunity and only one choice.

After all, learning is not a matter of buying vegetables in the vegetable market, so it is impossible for you to pick and choose.

Because of this, a transaction was born.

Chip trading.

For all the questions, only the chips are recognized but not the people.

So even if the same person fails the problem in Nanshan, as long as you have chips, you can do the same in Beishan.

Therefore, regardless of the number of people who come every year, there are also many people who are purely for trading and raising cards.

Scholars also have to live, and living requires money.

Not everyone can afford Ning Chen's exorbitant room rate.

Get early access to free questions.

But this time it was different because of the alliance of the other three companies.

Therefore, with one chip, you can see three problems at the same time.

This is equivalent to giving you three choices.

In the same way, the transaction price of the chips this time has also plummeted.

From the original 50 taels of silver, it fell directly to ten taels of silver.

After Ning Chen and Bai Yaoyao came in, they met several people who planned to sell the chips to Ning Chen for ten taels of silver.

After all, Ning Chen and Bai Yaoyao's gorgeous clothes are not decorations.

Whether you have money or not, you can tell at a glance.

"Young master, ten taels of silver, it's worth it to give myself another chance. This time the alliance of the three families is a rare and good opportunity.

In the past, a chip was 50 taels, and if you wanted to see four titles, it would cost 150 taels.

But now as long as twelve taels, it is equivalent to seeing four titles.

And try the Zhu family's Nanpo problem, even if you fail, you will not be considered a loss, and if you succeed, you will count as your own gain. "

The lips of scholars are indeed very powerful.

"The question is opened, the question is opened."

Who knows who yelled, standing in front of Ning Chen, the person who sold the chips also quickly looked back.

Ning Chen also raised his head and looked forward.

The four flags were unfolded at the same time, and above the flags was the topic of the Xiaowenhui.

"Why is the topic different?" The person who sold the cards to Ning Chen muttered the moment the topic unfolded.

Ning Chen also noticed a change in the topic.

The four questions were different from the ones Ning Chen got from the inn.

Ning Chen didn't believe that the inn would deliberately give him false titles.

Because the title given by the inn is itself free.

Since it is free, there is no need to give fake ones at all.

Ning Chen can also tell from the tone of the Confucian scholar in front of him.

The topic that Confucian scholars know must be the same as what I know.

It's just that today I don't know why, the topic has been changed.

The titles given by Guandao, Yunshan Academy, and Bansheng Zhang's family are plum, pine, and bamboo.

The title given by the Zhu family is also one word - Wu.

The topic given by the three official schools is obviously much simpler than the original one.

The questions given by Zhu's family were, on the contrary, a step up from the original difficulty.

Ning Chen just thought for a while, and understood the reason for such a change.

The purpose of reducing the difficulty of the three official schools is to attract more people to choose the three schools to challenge.

As for the Zhu family, they naturally felt that it was impossible for them to actively reduce the difficulty to attract people.Secondly, they didn't want to lose their Zhu family's dignity.

Therefore, it is better to increase the difficulty of the questions directly, instead, the real talents can be selected for the Zhu family to use.

"Sir, ten taels of silver, do you want more while raising cards?" After reading the title, the Confucian scholar standing in front of Ning Chen turned his head and asked Ning Chen.

Ning Chen looked at the Confucian scholar with a smile and said, "Do you think I will still want it?"

The Confucian scholar gritted his teeth and stomped his feet, and said, "My lord, five taels of silver will do."

Ning Chen continued to look at the Confucian scholar, smiling without saying a word.

Seeing Ning Chen smiling without saying a word, the Confucian scholar also understood that Ning Chen would not buy his chips.

At the same time, he also understood that it wasn't just that his chip chips couldn't be sold.

This time, for all the people who are saving chips for business, I am afraid they will not be able to sell the chips in their hands.

The questions given by the three official schools are really too simple.

Such topics, basically, will start to learn when they are enlightened.

Even a child of seven or eight years old can write a sentence or two.

Not to mention seventh grade Confucian scholars.

Such questions are basically equivalent to open-book exams.

The topic is extremely easy.

The three questions of the official family are so easy, but the questions of the Zhu family are so difficult.

How about spending money to buy the chips in their hands?

Even if you are rich, there is no reason to be a big boss.

"The question is so simple, why don't you try it yourself?" Ning Chen asked the Confucian scholar in front of him.

The Confucian scholar shook his head and said, "I'm only at the eighth rank, so it's useless to go up the mountain at this time.

At that time, it will not only waste time, but if you get injured during the process of going up the mountain.

On the contrary, it is really not worth spending money on medical treatment. "

After finishing speaking, the Confucian scholar shook his head and said, "This year, I have lost money."

While speaking, the Confucian scholar shook his head and walked away.

Although the chips in his hand could not be sold this year, he still wanted to observe Xiaowenhui.

Anyway, I am also a scholar, and reading poems and articles written by others is also considered learning.

It's not a waste of time to come here, is it.

The topic has come out, and the next step is to announce the rules.

On the side of the three officials, it is the head of the county government who announces the rules.

The rules of the three ways of the official family are simple.

For any of the three topics, regardless of poetry or articles, as long as you can have two feet of Wenhua, you will pass the test.

This rule is a bit more difficult than in previous years. The rule in previous years was that one foot of Wenhua was enough.

Although Wenhua's requirements have doubled, but consider the difficulty of the topic.

The overall difficulty is lower than that of previous years.
In addition to the changes required by Wenhua, there is another change.

Those who pass the test will all go up the mountain on the east slope.

At the same time, all the literature and articles will be concentrated in Dongpo.

In this way, Dongpo's road up the mountain will inevitably be much smoother and smoother.

The aura in Mount Dai is not only useful to the human race.

It is also useful for the monsters, birds and beasts in the mountains.

And if the human race wants to snatch the aura from them, they will naturally not agree.

So the road up the mountain, except the road is not good.

Dangers anytime and anywhere, also don't know when they will appear.

But if Wenhua is used to pave the way, the road will naturally be much easier.

After the announcement of the rules of the three ways of the official family, the Zhu family also announced the rules.

In terms of difficulty, the rules of the Zhu family are much more difficult than those of the official family.

The Zhu family requires that poems and articles must reach at least three feet of Wenhua to pass the test.

Although the difficulty of the Zhu family has increased a lot, the rewards given by the Zhu family are equally generous.

In addition to being able to go up the mountain from the south slope, you can also choose to join the Zhu family, and as long as you join, you can become a student of the inner sect, and you can listen to the teachings of the third rank of the Zhu family.

Even if you don't join the Zhu family, you can follow the students of the Zhu family to go up the mountain together.

Finally, when asking for spirits, you can also follow the students of the Zhu family to invite spirits together.

The people who are most familiar with the road on the south slope are naturally the people from the Zhu family.

It must be the easiest way to go up the mountain with the Zhu family.

As for the final spirit-seeking stage, if you can be with the students of the Zhu family, the success rate will definitely be greatly improved.

The conditions offered by the Zhu family moved many people's hearts.

Although it is very difficult, if it succeeds, the rewards will be very rich.

The conditions offered by the Zhu family made many merchants active again.

The Confucian scholar who left in disappointment found Ning Chen again, and at the same time tried his best to sell Ning Chen: "Young master, the conditions of the Zhu family are still worth a try. I think you should try it. 15 taels of silver to try once, absolutely not Lost."

Ning Chen looked at the Confucian scholar and said, "Didn't you just say ten taels?"

The Confucian scholar said without even thinking about it: "Ten taels are fine. Pay with one hand and deliver with the other."

Ning Chen: ...

what is this?
Is this considered a Porcelain Sale?

Is this the new way of selling?

But if he wants to touch Ning Chen, he really thinks too much.

Let alone ten taels, even one tael Ning Chen would not buy.

"Go find someone else, I don't intend to go to the Zhu family to try." Ning Chen said frankly to the Confucian scholar.

"My lord, you won't lose money if you try it. It's only ten taels, and I think the whole outfit of your son is more than ten taels." The Confucian scholar is still trying to sell it to Ning Chen.

"I have a grudge against the Zhu family." In order to avoid being disturbed, Ning Chen directly threw out his trump card.

Hearing this, the Confucian scholar, who tried his best to promote Ning Chen, turned his head and left decisively.

The rules and rewards are all out.

Then you can freely choose the topic.

It can be seen from the direction of flow of people.

Although the return given by the Zhu family is very attractive.

But everyone still chooses the easy way.

On the official station at the Sandao side of the official family, there was soon the first person who passed the assessment and obtained the qualification for mountaineering.

I don't even have the effort to make a cup of tea, so it can be seen that such a topic is really simple.

After a stick of incense, the number of people who have passed the assessment, there are already more than a dozen in the official family.

It's just that everyone is just qualified.

The topic is simple and simple, but because there are too many people writing.

It is difficult to innovate, let alone go beyond.

The time spent burning incense in Zhu's house, although no one is qualified.

But it also raised the price of chips.

The original price of 15 taels was directly increased to [-] taels.

It is a very good embodiment of what it means to follow the market as you go.

Another stick of incense time passed, and the number of people who passed through the three officials' side was almost fifty.

Finally, a person from the Zhu family passed through.

An article of truth directly obtained the Three-foot Wenhua, and became a text passed down to the world.

At the same time, the student who passed also directly accepted the Zhu family's invitation.

The Zhu family gave him the badge of an inner disciple on the spot, making him an inner disciple.

Someone took them directly to the school office of the Zhu family in Daishan, and rested with the students of the Zhu family who were going to climb the mountain tomorrow.

This kind of treatment is really enviable.

But the topic of the Zhu family is really difficult.

It was time for another cup of tea, and finally there was a handed-down article of the three-foot mandarin on the side of the three officials.

After this handed down article appeared, Ning Chen saw the Zhu family's showmanship.

The Zhu family even took the initiative to invite the person who created the handed down text to come to the Zhu family for a try.

Seeing the actions of the Zhu family, the director of Qi'an County couldn't sit still.

This is okay.

If he produced a three-foot Wenhua handed down from generation to generation, the Zhu family blatantly poached the wall.

"It's against the rules."

Facing the accusation from the chief bookkeeper, the person in charge of the Zhu family said: "We have never agreed on any rules, so why are there discrepancies?"

The master frowned and did not refute.

They really have no agreement of any kind.

Even if the Zhu family did this, there was nothing wrong with the rules.

Disgusting people belong to disgusting people, but there is really nothing wrong with it.

"If you go, then my grades here will only be regarded as invalid. If you don't pass the Zhu family's assessment, if you want to come back, you will have to do another article."

Since we can't talk about the Zhu family, we can only attack the Confucian scholars.

And what the master book said, there is no big mistake.

If you don't accept my invitation, it means that you have given up your grades.

And here only chips are recognized, not people.

Even if I know that you made the handed-down text of the three-foot mandarin before, but your chips are gone, you have to start all over again.

Facing the accusation of the master book.

This person who made a three-foot mandarin finally chose to accept the Zhu family's invitation.

Because in his opinion, since he can make a three-foot article.

Even if you can't make a three-foot mandarin the second time, it's still okay to make a two-foot mandarin.

And with the talents I have accumulated now, maybe I can perform supernormally in the Zhu family's station later.

It's just a matter of a dozen taels, and it's worth giving it a go.

The person in charge of the Zhu family looked at the head of Qi'an County with a look of complacency.

The Confucian scholar who wrote a three-foot mandarin, in the end, only wrote two-foot mandarin articles on the Zhu family's literary platform.

Although he did not meet the standards of the Zhu family, the Zhu family unexpectedly gave him a place.

It's just that for this quota, you can't go with the members of the Zhu family, you can only go alone.

Even so, it was already a great surprise for this Confucian scholar.

I even saved these dozen taels of chips.

"The Zhu family is really not a fuel-efficient lamp." Ning Chen looked at the operations of the Zhu family and said to Bai Yaoyao.

Bai Yaoyao said: "The semi-holy family that can be passed down forever, and that one is a fuel-efficient lamp."

The Zhu family's operation made more people flock to the official family's Sandao side.

Such a scene did not make the head of Qi'an County look happy at all.

There are too many people, but the director of Qi'an County understands.

What they are doing now is nothing more than selecting talents for the Zhu family in advance.

As long as there is a three-foot mandarin, the Zhu family will give it a chance.

Then go there and make a two-foot mandarin to get an extra chance.

It's not a loss no matter what.

"Looking at the Zhu family's arrogance, I can't stand it anymore anyway, senior sister, can you stand it?" Ning Chen asked Bai Yaoyao.

Bai Yaoyao said, "Have you thought of a good article?"

Ning Chen nodded: "Think about it."

Bai Yaoyao reminded Ning Chen, saying: "If you want to suppress the Zhu family, you need at least a holy level. These three topics are already too mature, and it will not be too easy to come up with a holy level article."

"Thank you, Senior Sister, for reminding me, but I have already thought about the topics of the three articles. You can just read it later, Senior Sister. Watch how I slap the Zhu family in the face." Ning Chen walked towards the Wentai as he said. past.

Relying on his body as a martial artist, Ning Chen easily squeezed to the front of the Wentai.

Then he handed over his chips.

"When he comes down, you can go up." The officer in charge of collecting chips said to Ning Chen with a blank expression.

Ning Chen nodded and waited in place.

While Ning Chen was waiting, the Confucian scholar above Wentai just wrote another essay about three feet of Wenhua.

Seeing that his article was three feet of Wenhua, the Confucian scholar jumped up excitedly.

Then, without waiting for the chief secretary to say anything to persuade him to stay, he went directly to Zhu's office.

Seeing such a scene, the chief secretary's face turned livid.

There was no one on the station, so Ning Chen went up to the station.

The chief editor glanced at Ning Chen, and asked blankly, "Which topic do you plan to choose?"

Ning Chen said: "Three topics together."

Hearing Ning Chen's words, the chief secretary was taken aback for a moment, and then said in disgust, "In order to get to Zhu's house, I really can use any trick."

Just as Ning Chen was about to explain, he heard the chief bookkeeper say, "You can do all three questions. But you need three chips to do it."

Since there was a formal method, Ning Chen didn't bother to explain.

It's just raising cards.

Ning Chen found Bai Yaoyao who was in the audience, and Bai Yaoyao directly threw her chips to Ning Chen.

Then Ning Chen found the Confucian scholar who planned to sell his chips in the crowd.

"Brother, I bought your chips for ten taels." Ning Chen said to the Confucian scholar.

"It's 15 taels now." Confucian scholar said to Ning Chen.

"Okay, 15 taels."

Ning Chen took out 15 taels of silver and threw it to him. At the same time, he also threw the chips on it to Ning Chen.

"You are really willing to put down the book, but these topics are already mature topics. It is not so easy to write a three-foot Wenhua article." The chief book took Ning Chen's three cards and said .

Ning Chen didn't bother to explain to him.

Walked to the front of the first topic Song.

Ning Chen directly picked up the pen and wrote down a quatrain.

"Since I was a child in the thorny grass, now I gradually feel the basil."

"People at that time didn't know Ling Yunmu, and waited until Ling Yun started to be high."

After Ning Chen finished writing this quatrain, everyone's eyes lit up.

Because in Ning Chen's poem, the word 'pine' does not appear from the beginning to the end.

But everyone seemed to see the shadow of a pine tree growing from bud to sky in front of their eyes.

Don't write pine, but write pine, this is the real highest state.

Seeing the article written by Ning Chen, the director's eyes suddenly lit up.

Then it was extremely confusing.

Because as far as he is concerned, Ning Chen's article is at least nine-foot Wenhua, and even a holy rank is possible.
