Wearing the cannon fodder little koi in the imperial examination essay

Chapter 190 Asking the soul question three times in a row

Song Xinglin: How many questions? What question?
Yu Su was dumbfounded: Does Xin Dao still have to take the exam?Is it an entrance exam?They were totally unprepared!

Yu Su, who had been a spectator by the side and didn't say a word, was a little anxious. She subconsciously looked at her little husband, and then her eyes fell on Zhao Butou, with the expression why didn't you say it just now.

Catcher Zhao felt Yu Su's gaze, and he was also dumbfounded.

I have two sons and one daughter. The eldest daughter is thirteen years old, the second son is ten years old, and the youngest is only five years old. His unscrupulous eldest son is a stubborn one. He would rather kneel on the washboard and be beaten to death than enter learn to read.

It's a pity that he didn't have the opportunity to send his son to school, let alone experience it himself, so he doesn't know!
Zhao Butou was embarrassed, and because he had drunk some wine, he opened his mouth and smiled at Yu Su and Song Xinglin, then looked at Master Li and asked, scratching his head.

"Master Li, why do you need an exam for admission? Haven't you heard of it before?"

Master Li looked at Yu Su and Song Xinglin, then at Zhao Butou, who looked concerned and inquiring, and explained: "Don't worry Zhao Butou, it's not a problem, the old man just asked a few simple questions."

Oh, I see!
Song Xinglin clasped his hands together and bowed, and said sincerely: "Master, please ask me all the time."

"Okay!" Master Li nodded, raised his hand and shook his sleeves lightly, with one hand on his back, and the other hand stroking the beautiful beard under his chin, he asked after a while.

"Song Xinglin, can you tell this old man, why did you hunt tigers when you were young? Tigers are so big, and they are still man-eating tigers. Were you afraid at that time?"

Although he didn't understand why he came to study, why did the old master ask, this question has nothing to do with studying, Song Xinglin still chose to tell the truth selectively.

"It's natural to be afraid, but at that time, the kid has no choice, either it dies, or I die!"

Master Li was startled: Is it so hostile?
Master Li frowned, but Song Xinglin seemed to not see his expression at all, and continued on his own.

"To tell you the truth, my son's family is poor, and I hired an old man as a master to learn martial arts. It was just for the convenience of walking in the mountains and forests to beg for food. Later, by coincidence, the boy obeyed the orders of the elders and married my guest. Well, since the boy has already married, then you can't ask my young guest to suffer with me..."

"Well, then you are still responsible, you know the word responsibility."

Song Xinglin was interrupted by Mrs. Li's evaluation, and he didn't care at all. Seeing Uncle Zhao next to him, he also agreed with Mrs. Li's evaluation of himself. Touching his chest, he answered as it should, "That is!"

Seeing his arrogant appearance, Mrs. Li nodded and shook his head, and didn't continue talking, but spread his hands and said, "Go on."

Just keep going!
Song Xinglin glanced around, and Yu Su, who cast an encouraging look towards him, then continued.

"You can't ask the guest to suffer, so the boy will run to the mountains more and more, thinking about getting more wild animals to exchange for some money and food to support the family. My guest is sensible regardless of his young age. Seeing that the boy is working hard, he insists on following the boy to work on the mountain. , I said in my heart that the power of two people is always more than that of one person, even if it is a little more wild vegetables every day to make ends meet?
It turned out to be bad luck, the boy took his guests up the mountain for the first time, and it happened that he met a tiger on the way. At that time, the boy didn't know that it was a man-eating tiger wanted by the county. The boy only knew that it was aiming at me. The following guest came, and under the critical situation, the boy had no choice but to risk his life to fight with it.But fortunately, the boy got shit luck, and at the same time he let the boy and the guest escape by chance, he also hunted down the vicious tiger and got a reward from the magistrate. "

"Oh, so it's like this..." Master Li stroked his beard and nodded.

Song Xinglin saw Master Li's reaction in his eyes.

I am not stupid, what is the most important thing in the world?The master suddenly asked these questions again, saying that it was an examination question, and combined with what he had heard from Uncle Zhao when he came here, he made a decisive decision to hide half of the matter and reveal the other half. Speak out what you asked satisfactorily.

What is concealed is naturally the meanness of the family members, the rebelliousness in his bones and the lack of kinship. Of course, the most important thing is to fight the tiger!
And as long as anyone with a clear mind and a clear eye listens to what he says, he can tell from his words that his family is not a good bird.

But whoever is a good bird, how could they have the heart to let him bring his new younger daughter-in-law into the mountains to run for his life?
Sure enough, Song Xinglin seemed to be sincere, and his half-hidden, half-answered answers still satisfied Mr. Li.

He nodded and sighed.

This kid is not bad, he knows how to be responsible, doesn't evade, doesn't abandon, and has some backbone.

Master Li couldn't help but frowned at this answer, and was secretly satisfied, but then he thought, Wu Fu has always been hot-tempered and hostile, and he doesn't want to accept such an existence, but he appreciates Song Xinglin's young age. Abandoned responsibility.

He tentatively asked again: "That day you met a tiger, and if you hunted it, you killed it, but if the old man asked you, what you met that day was a human, what should you do?"

Yu Su couldn't help staring, thinking what the hell kind of problem is this?
Even Catcher Zhao beside him couldn't help frowning, thinking how could Mr. Li's entrance examination question be so inexplicable?Could it be that he deliberately targeted himself to make things difficult for the child?
Frowning tightly, Zhao Butou couldn't help but turn dark. Song Xinglin next to him thought about it, but he answered straightforwardly.

"If it's a human being, the other party is not polite to us two half-grown children, and I am naturally not polite to the boy. If they bully me, the boy will definitely fight with them desperately to subdue the other party."

"Will you kill each other?"

Song Xinglin...

Yu Su...

Even Catcher Zhao was speechless.

But facing Master Li's staring eyes on him, Song Xinglin was silent, shook his head and nodded again.

"It depends on the situation."

Master Li followed closely, "How do we see the situation?"

Hey man hey!
Song Xinglin also got angry, and licked the back of his teeth with the tip of his tongue.

"If the other party has no life on him, and he is not a vicious person, he can spare me and the little guest. After the boy takes them down, he will naturally report them to the officials. The yamen will decide what the charges are; but if the other party is a vicious person. If you, even our two and a half grown children, are determined to kill the boy and the younger guest, then I'm sorry, the boy is not made of mud, so naturally he will fight with his life, blood for blood."
