Wandao long distance

Chapter 288

Finally, the time soon came to the day before the exam.

In an office of Taixue.

Tai Xuecheng is the chief examiner, and there are some doctors under him as assistant examiners.

There are three doctors of Taixue, who are at the top of the sixth rank, who can master the rituals of training, supervise classes, and test exams.

Although the official position of the doctor of Taixue is higher than that of Taixuecheng, but in the matter of entrance examination, he is helping as Taixuecheng's deputy. As a sixth-rank existence, it is more than enough to assess some freshmen.

Before the exam, the examiners also need to check the exam questions one last time.

Because Taixue's entrance examination is based on the questions formulated by each student individually after the examiner obtains the student's information, it must be checked repeatedly to ensure that it is suitable for this student.

In the past countless years, there have never been any mistakes. They have rich experience and keen eyesight. They can always catch what the students are good at and what they are not good at, and then make targeted assessments to ensure that the other party has indeed reached the level of Taixue. standard.

Just when everyone is busy.

Suddenly, Tai Xuecheng spoke.

"Everyone, Lu Ji, Tao Hongjing, He Fasheng, and Du Guangting have already formulated the questions for this batch of candidates, and now there is still a gap left for Li Qi's to be produced. Do you have any clues about this person?" Tai Xuecheng said to the Several doctors of Taixue asked.

"Is there any problem with him? Oh, Li Cheng thinks this person has a special status?" A doctor of imperial studies raised his head and said.

"It's true that he has a special status. This person is the son of Wushenshan. He came here because he was an exchange student. However, it was agreed before that he would enroll directly, but the big witch over there offered to take the exam. That's why there is such a time." Another Taixue The doctor looked through the information again and confirmed Li Qi's origin.

"Master Wushenshan, that topic shouldn't bother him. Although Wushenshan is a barbarian, it has a profound background. After all, it is also a branch of humanity. It should be very easy to learn." The third doctor looked very relaxed.

"No, no, three doctors, you have to pay attention to this, absolutely don't let him pass." Tai Xuecheng raised his head and said seriously.

The other three doctors of Taixue immediately stopped what they were doing and frowned.

"Li Cheng, do you want us to engage in malpractice for personal gain?" One of the doctors spoke first: "Even if this person is from Wushen Mountain, he still has to do what he should. The rules are like this, so don't make mistakes."

His tone was serious, and he seemed to hate such things.

The other two did not speak, but judging from their expressions, it was obvious that they had reached an agreement, and they would not change the test questions at will.

The rules of humanity are extremely important, and those who practice humanity regard principles as life.

Humanity used to have the power of the Legalists, and there is an allusion of "doing the law will kill you". It is obviously the law that he made, but after he violated it, in front of his own life and his own law, he did not hesitate to choose The law finally died under its own punishment, which shows its weight.

"No, no, I don't mean to let the three of you do favoritism, but I want to teach Wushenshan a lesson. This matter was sent by Si Ye, and here is the letter." Tai Xuecheng said, taking out a Souvenir.

"Wushenshan has made an agreement before, but changed the request temporarily. We have changed back and forth several times to meet their unreasonable demands. Si Ye was very annoyed by this and thought it was rude. You also know that Si Ye is Confucian disciples, who follow the practice of 'reporting grievances directly', must be severely punished for Wushenshan's rude behavior."

Tai Xuecheng said so, and then observed the expressions of other people.

However, the doctors all looked displeased.

"Even if this is the case, if you want to complain, you should go to the great witch of Wushenshan. It is really unpleasant to repeat it like this, but it is the great witch who repeats it. You should go to him if you want to complain. Why are you angry with a child?" A doctor of Taixue said immediately.

Another person immediately added: "I think this Mr. Wushenshan's resume is clean, he studies hard, has never violated laws and disciplines, he is humble, and he is also polite when he gets along with others. Even if the two families If there is a conflict, you can't use children to vent your anger. This behavior is despised by others."

The third person also immediately followed up: "Besides, if the difficulty of the imperial examinations can be tampered with, will he still have to hide his secrets when teaching knowledge? If he didn't break the law, should he be punished? Masters must follow the rules when teaching others. , Scholars must also follow the rules, there must be a law in what they say, and then they can be accomplished. If the teacher ignores the truth, there is no way to teach, and the disciple will never learn if the disciple ignores the truth. Learning art is the same, how about the way of the sage?"

Doctors of Taixue reached an agreement one after another, resolutely refused to make things difficult for any candidate.

However, their reactions had already been expected by Tai Xuecheng.

Therefore, upon seeing this, Tai Xuecheng immediately took a step back: "Oh, I actually thought the same way, but there is no other way, this is something ordered by Zhu Siye, and you all know that Siye is in charge of the decree of students' academic assessment. I am also very embarrassed to get his souvenir."

But a doctor of Taixue sneered: "Heh, what's the trouble? With this letter, we will tell Jijiu directly and impartially, and he will definitely stumble!"

"Rules are not easy. They are not easy for Qin and Chu, and they are not changed for Hu Yue. One is not evil, but it is not fading. It is shaped in one day and passed down from generation to generation. How can it be changed because of a business? Li Cheng If you don't come with me, we went to sue the sacrificial wine earlier, and this time we will definitely punish him severely!"

"You're right, since you have a souvenir, that's what it should be!"

"It should be like this, let's go, let's go together!"

A few people quickly reached a consensus, and they all agreed that students should not be tampered with, and that they should go to the right master if they want revenge, and it is not a gentleman to blame others.

Seeing this, Tai Xuecheng sighed: "Indeed, anyway, since that's the case, then I will go with you to hand over this souvenir to the sacrificial wine."

The four of them joined hands, stood up and walked out of the office, only to see Taixue Cheng carefully locked the door, sealed the restriction, and after making sure everything was correct, they left together with the three Taixue doctors.

however--

Not long after they left, the restriction was automatically opened, and a small gap was exposed in the door personally set by the third product sacrificial wine.

A transparent wave was quietly introduced into it.

On the other side, the four of them filed a complaint, and the result came out quickly.

Jijiu thought that although Si Ye changed the rules without permission, although there were reasons and excuses, but after all, he was a teacher, and this trend could not last long, so he was ordered to face the wall and think about his mistakes, and not to touch Li Qi's affairs again. He was deprived of his official position and returned to the Ministry of officials for use.

It is said that he will return to the Ministry of Officials for use, but in fact, everyone knows that the rank is basically about to be dropped, and it is impossible to become a fourth-rank official.

The three doctors were very satisfied with the result of this treatment, and felt that the sacrificial wine was handled fairly.

The matter was closed, but there was no notification.

After all, it was related to a secretary, and there was no trouble. It was dealt with in advance, so there is no need to make it public.

They continued to go back, opened the restriction carefully, and continued with the previous work.

The few doctors did not invite credit, but continued to assign questions to the candidates to ensure that everyone could get a proper test in their field of expertise.

This can ensure that they can give full play to their strengths, instead of encountering things they have not learned. At the same time, it also ensures the difficulty, ensuring that these candidates can meet the admission standards of Taixue while exerting all their strengths.

However, in the eyes of others, such 'justice' represents extremely difficult.

Even if they give full play to what they are good at, only a very small number of people can pass the test of Taixue, less than one a year on average.

A long, long time ago, when the world was extremely backward in the barbaric era, at that time, various sects and forces, their exam questions were basically fighting, and they even asked people to go up to the ring and so on, and the competition was all violence.

But it is not that era anymore, and fighting is just one of the arts. In Chang'an now, there is no need to fight with people all the time.

In the long history, the absolute advantage has always been force.

After all, force has a vital and irreplaceable role.

But times will always develop.

At first, those practitioners who can only fight showed disdain when facing these scholars, because mathematics cannot let you run away from the bandit's knife, nor can you know when ice will condense or why rain will fall. Allows you to knock down your enemies.

But today, that is no longer the case.

----------

After Li Qi's preparation for the exam was over, he slept soundly again.

After waking up, he lay on the bed for a while, and contacted Shen Shuibi through the terminal to see what was going on with her.

It's only been a few days, so naturally nothing major will happen, Shen Shuibi's side is stable, and she has arranged some formations as cover and defense, and is ready to fight with people remotely.

As for the Son of Destiny, he has some clues, but he is still too young, and Shen Shuibi is not going to show up for the time being.

Everything was in order, no surprises.

After chatting for a while, everyone was safe, and Li Qi turned off the terminal in peace of mind, and then went to the exam.

Soon, he came to the examination room alone.

Because he had been lying on the bed for a while, the examination room was already crowded with people.

There is a feeling of a college entrance examination room, and there is more.

There are not many candidates, only a few thousand people, but the accompanying family members, spectators, media, and people from all walks of life add up, I am afraid that a hundred thousand will not be enough.

The Taixue exam is a big event, and newspapers and various media are happy to report it, so there are many people around.

Everyone knows that those who can be admitted to the Imperial College will surely ascend to the sky in the future, and will soon become a big shot.

Although it is not very big in Chang'an.

In Chang’an, the density of high-rank monks is frighteningly high. Anyone caught on the side of the road is a ninth-rank cultivator. Those who are above eighth rank are running around all over the street. Seventh-rank monks are rare, but they can’t reach the point of being one in a thousand. .

Only when it reaches the sixth grade, it is considered rare, but it can be seen in newspapers at any time, and the public does not find it unusual.

In fact, newspapers can see news reports of third-rank and fourth-rank members every day.

This also raised the hearts of the people, but only when the hearts are high, those who should not be in the class are still not in the class.

Just like ordinary people, they don't seem to find anything unusual when they see this high-ranking official or that dignitary, scold the heavenly king, Lao Tzu, or comment on the emperor and general.

But when you go out, don't talk about commenting on emperors and generals, if you can handle the security of the community and manage your own property, you are already considered very capable.

Thinking about these messy things in his mind, Li Qi confirmed his identity with the terminal without any pressure, got out of the crowd, and under the eyes of a bunch of people, he stepped into the ranks of candidates from the ranks of onlookers.

Candidates also have different attitudes.

Some are still cramming, holding books and chewing hard, or are constantly studying exercises, trying to make their cultivation more profound.

Some are confident and seem to be sure of everything. They talk and laugh with the people next to them, but they don't know if they are really that safe.

Some were trembling and sweating coldly, Li Qi was afraid that he would die of a heart attack in the examination room.

Some seemed to have nothing to do, and laughed, but in fact their fingers trembled and their steps were vain.

Others closed their eyes and concentrated on it, just glanced at the family members surrounded outside from time to time, and then continued to prepare.

The state of the world before the examination room is not inferior to that in the hospital.

Of course Li Qi didn't care.

As far as he is concerned, as long as Taixue's exams are not intentionally difficult, then the problem is not very big.

At the beginning, he was curious about why he held the ceremony and hoped that when the gods responded, he would always get a response. It was not as difficult as the book said.

Now he understood why.

Nothing special, just because he's a genius.

One year of practice, one can enter rank, this kind of record can already scare many people to death, Li Qi has only practiced for a little over three years now, already rank eight, and may break through rank seven at any time.

Even among the young masters of Wushenshan, they are considered outstanding, and have reached the point of being praised by many great witches. It shouldn't be a problem to take the imperial examination.

As long as the title is not too outrageous.

Li Qi wasn't bragging about this, in fact, Mr. Wushenshan's gold content was much higher than that of Taixue students.

Although the number of Taixue students is very small, they can actually reach the level of enrolling one a year.

It seems to be few, but it has been quite a lot over the years. The officials of Tang Guo who have studied in Taixue, counted up and down, said that there are fewer than [-] people, and this is not counting those who have not become officials.

But Mr. Wushenshan, generally speaking, a great witch has only one disciple, occasionally two or three, and in rare cases, the number will exceed this number, and there is no expansion of enrollment. Most of them have only one disciple in their lifetime.

The quantity is naturally much lower, and the quality will go up accordingly.

It's a strategy though.

Although the number of Taixue students is slightly larger, the output is stable, basically there is no element of luck, and the number is large, and there will naturally be outstanding students among them, such as the previous Liu Junyi, who can even fight against three people in terms of knowledge and combat power at the same time. The two sons joined hands without losing the wind.

The number of sons of Wushen Mountain is small, and they are all elites. The three that Li Qi is familiar with, Bo Yue, Yan Ke, and Zhong Minglou, are the proud sons of heaven wherever they go.

Time passed little by little.

About a quarter of an hour later, as the bell rang.

Li Qi and others filed in.

The exam has begun.
