Xiuxian: The longer you live, the better your talent!

Chapter 43

"At present, we still need to find out first, what are the variables of martial arts?"

Lu Changsheng stood there for a while, feeling that he had reached his limit, he got up and walked away.

In the kitchen, Li Gugua was busy making food.

"Where is Da Zhuang?"

Lu Changsheng asked.

You know, in the past, Da Zhuang was making food, but today it has become Li Pumpkin.

"Da Zhuang and Black Monkey went out!"

Lu Changsheng nodded and took a look around. He felt that this place was still too narrow. It was okay for one or two people to live there. If there were more than a few people, it would become crowded. These days, Wang Heihou, Zhao Hu, and Niu Dazhuang were all Lying down and sleeping in the hall.

"We have to find another house to live in!"

Before becoming a Tongsheng, it would be very difficult to change houses, but now, it is much more convenient.

So, after breakfast, he went out with Li Nangua and went to the government office to inquire about housing.

Tong Sheng can be regarded as a scholar with half a reputation, and the Emperor Dayuan preferred scholars, so it is naturally impossible for Tong Sheng to worry about where to live like ordinary people.

The official in charge of this matter replied that it would take some time to check, how could Lu Changsheng not understand, and secretly stuffed more than ten coins, and after a while, the other party took out a map.

Pointing at several of them, they were the directions of the four gates in the southeast, northwest and northwest.

Heishan Mansion has very strict control over the land of the mansion. Any sale or purchase of a house needs to be registered at the mansion office. Therefore, it is natural to know exactly where there are vacancies.

However, the money that should be paid still needs to be paid.

And, it's not cheap.

According to Lu Changsheng's requirements, a house with more than 5 entrances would cost at least 10 taels of silver.

Fortunately, as a child, you can overdraw your future savings in advance to pay for the purchase of the house.

Therefore, Lu Changsheng chose to overdraft his future savings and bought a house in the east gate.

"Changsheng, you can't pay all the money to buy the house!" Li Nangua said hastily after leaving the door.

Although she doesn't get as much dividends as Lu Changsheng, her expenses are much less, and she still has one or two taels of silver with her now.

"It's okay! The world is not stable now, and no one knows how long the regular money will last. It's better to use it in advance!"

After comforting themselves, Lu Changsheng and Li Guanggu, led by a clerk, went to the east gate to look at the courtyard.

It's not bad, it's not remote, and it's not in a good location, but there is a lot of dust, and it should have been unoccupied for a long time.

Seeing this, Li Nangua quickly found a wooden basin and fetched water to clean the yard.

In the following days, Lu Changsheng went to the Lin Mansion to practice martial arts every morning, and gradually understood the variables that affected the duration of martial arts practice.

The first is the length of practice.

The longer the training time, the shorter the time will be.

However, the training time is limited.

If you reach the limit, you must stop, otherwise, the gain will not be worth the loss, and the variable will go towards negative growth.

And Lu Changsheng's current limit is two hours a day.

The second one is medicated diet.

Medicinal food can sort out qi and blood, strengthen kidney essence, increase strength, and has a non-negligible effect in restoring one's own physical fitness.

Moreover, there is a certain effect of recuperating the texture.

The third one is eating.

Warriors need to eat more, and they also need to eat meat.

Regardless of men and women, it must be like this when practicing martial arts, otherwise, it will be a waste of life.

This is also the origin of the so-called 'poor culture and rich military'.

"Based on the current income from the archery training place, it is far from being able to support my martial arts training!"

Not to mention, supporting other people to practice martial arts in the future.

Fortunately, after a few days of transition, Wang Heihou, Zhao Hu and others have already started to return to the Dongmen Xingjiao Inn and opened the place for practicing arrows.

With the passage of time, those students also began to return one after another, and the income has initially increased.

In the blink of an eye, August passed quietly and September came.

The Montenegro mansion became somewhat awe-inspiring.

Especially at Jixia Academy, a large number of figures emerged.

Zhuangyuan Building and Zhuangyuan Pavilion are always bright day and night.

Many big shots are stationed there, just waiting for the results of the Juren Exam!

Juren and Tongsheng are far different. If you become a Juren, you will have completely achieved fame and obtained an official status!

All of a sudden, he became a new nobleman, like Mr. Chen, and even the Lin family, who couldn't compare to him!

Therefore, any new aristocrat is a piece of fragrant steamed bun for all big families and old aristocrats.

"This fame is of great use after all!"

At the end of September, a gong and drum sounded.

The gongs and drums hanging on the top of the Zhuangyuan Building were struck by the professors of Jixia Academy.

Most of the Heishan Prefecture was in a commotion because of this.

However, the one-month-long examination for candidates is completely over. Tonight is the time when Jixia Academy will release the results.

Lu Changsheng stood in the crowd with Zhao Hu, Li Nangua and others. Not long after, he saw a huge roster rolling down from the champion building, one end was hung on the pavilion, and it unfolded quickly.

Reveal a personal name above!

This is the list of candidates!
The list was issued from above, and then Jixia Academy and government offices from various places jointly formulated it, and it was also called the Tongtian List by people at the bottom.

"No. [-] on the Tongtian Ranking is Qingming from Jinghua Mansion!"

"As expected of a talented man in Jinghua, it is said that this person can speak at the age of one, run at the age of three, can read at the age of five, and passed the child birth test at the age of 11. Now, he is only 20 years old when he won the first place in Juren!"

"awesome!"

······
Being the leader of a person is the most eye-catching existence, even if it is thousands of miles away, someone has heard of his talent.

Lu Changsheng sighed in his heart. It took a long time before anyone saw the person on the list from Heishan Mansion.

The 23rd person from Heishan Prefecture is named Di Jinqiu.

Then, there was another person, who was also from Heishan Prefecture, named Qin Ming.

"This Qin family is in the early stages!"

Lu Changsheng turned his head to look, and saw an old boy saying with emotion.

"Old man, what is the origin of this Qin family?"

"The Qin family is a declining noble family. When it was prosperous, it was stronger than the current Xun family and Gao family! Unfortunately, something happened later and it declined. Now, it is not as good as some big families. But , now that a Juren has emerged, this generation has risen!"

Immediately, there was some envy in everyone's eyes.

"What a pity, why is it so easy to take the exam? Heishan Mansion is barren, and it is very rare to have two like this year!" Lao Tongsheng said with emotion.

Lu Changsheng looked forward, and saw a white-faced man in the No. [-] Scholar Pavilion, looking at the list of candidates hanging down, trembling with excitement.

Some of the wealthy households who had been close to him before had completely lowered their stance and surrounded him in the crowd.

"It would definitely be a lot easier if I could pass the Juren Examination!" Lu Changsheng thought to himself.

Seeing everyone looking over expectantly, Lu Changsheng smiled wryly and said, "It's not so easy to take the exam, I can only say that I will do my best!"

The next day is the day to enter Jixia Academy, and I don't know what's going on inside!
He also had some expectations in his heart.
