The road to immortality for a hundred generations

Chapter 81

[Based on everyone’s comments, I found that people don’t like to read some branch plots, but for the sake of a complete world view, I had to write them, so I came up with a solution-add updates. 】

[If I write a branch line in the future, I will add updates according to the situation. If you don’t like it, just skip it. Thank you all. 】

Time is like running water, and half a year flies by.

In the past six months, the imperial city has completely settled down.

However, what everyone did not expect was that the military order issued by the imperial court was not just a talk, but actually implemented, and the force was so powerful that it was shocking.

"Yang Liu, qualification C, unqualified."

"Xu Wu, with low qualifications, is unqualified."

"Li Shan, qualification C, unqualified."

"Zhang Hu, with low qualifications, is unqualified."

"Wei Zhu, qualification B, passed."

In Mangshan County, a young historian read the results according to the script.

Hearing this, most of the onlookers looked disappointed. Only a few looked ecstatic, so they must have passed the test.

"Those who pass the test can directly sign a contract and join the government, and then they can learn internal skills. Those who fail can also practice outside the county government's backyard for three months. During this period, the government will provide food and accommodation. After three months, ten outstanding foreign trainees will be selected from every hundred people. If so, all the rest will be dismissed."

"Ah? There is still a chance for those who fail to pass? Master Guan! Choose me, choose me! I will definitely practice hard!"

"Me, me, me! The official officer chose me! I have been born with magical powers since I was a child, so I am very suitable for external training!"

"You fart, you have so little strength, but you are also born with divine power? Sir, don't listen to his nonsense, choose me! I have the real divine power!"

When they heard that those with unqualified qualifications still had the opportunity to practice outside, most people shouted excitedly.

"Shut up! Shut up! Everyone can come over early tomorrow morning."

Xiao Shi waved his hand impatiently, then greeted a dozen people who had passed the internal training qualifications and walked towards the county government office.

"Huzi! Did you hear that? Although we have all been eliminated, we still have a chance! The officials also gave us other opportunities!"

The young boy with small eyes narrowed his eyes excitedly and pulled the person next to him with his hands.

"Ten outstanding candidates will be selected from every hundred people. In other words, only one out of ten people can pass the test. Yangdan'er, can the two of us really pass the test of the official?"

The boy who was called Huzi by the little-eyed boy had a tiger head and a tiger brain, which perfectly fit the name Huzi.

"Hey! What are you afraid of? Hu Zi, you have been very strong since you were a child. Even three or two people can't hold you down. You will definitely be able to survive. I'm not worried, so what are you worried about?"

Yangdan waved his hand nonchalantly, then rolled his little eyes a few times, and lowered his voice and said, "And didn't you hear? Three months of food and drink, isn't this much better than the two of us begging?"

"Too,"

Huzi nodded, and then frowned for some reason, "It's just that my master said that pie will not fall from the sky, and the government will control food and drink for three months. Look around, they all want to go, How much does this cost? Is the official really taking advantage of us for nothing?"

"It's not Huzi, why do you talk about that old beggar every day?"

Yang Dan sighed helplessly, "You have only been following him for three days, and you are so convinced of him?"

"I'm not convinced by him, mainly because I think what he said makes sense."

Huzi shook his head, "It would be great if he was still alive. I could still ask his opinion."

"Oh Huzi, don't think so much. We are just an orphan. At worst, we will work for those officials. Anyway, as long as we can have enough to eat."

Yangdan dragged Huzi away from the crowd and said as he walked, "Let's have a good rest tonight. We will know what the situation is when we go tomorrow."

"Well, yes."

Huzi responded and let Yangdan drag him away.

Three months later, the number of teenagers who came to practice in the backyard of the county government office dropped from more than 1000 to about [-] today.It’s not that those who left were eliminated, it’s just that they couldn’t hold on and endure the hardships of external training.

As for the seventeen people who practiced internal training, they all persisted.

Huzi and Yangdaner both persisted, and their external training progress was also advanced, so they had the possibility of passing.

"Hey, Huzi, I feel that we are both stable this time. There were more than 500 people coming here at that time. According to ten saving one, at least 150 people can be left. And the progress of our external training But they are all at the front.”

Yang Dan chuckled, "Speaking of it, there were only a dozen or so people who qualified for internal training at the beginning. It can be said that they are only one in a hundred. It is much more difficult than our external training."

"The results haven't come out yet. What the situation will be depends on what the official says."

Huzi stared at the door of the courtyard and said without raising his head.

Today is the last day of the March term. According to reports, the passers and failers will be announced tonight.

Sure enough, before Yang Dan could speak again, Xiao Shi, who had read out the results three months ago, hurried in from the door.

Xiao Shi didn't hesitate at all. As soon as he stood firm, he immediately read out the results.

"Zhang Hu, first on the list, qualified."

"Xu Kui, second on the list, qualified."

"Sheep egg, 39th on the list, qualified."

"Li Fei, forty on the list, qualified."

"Okay, those who are qualified will stay. The rest are all unqualified and should be dispersed."

Most of the young people who were originally full of expectations were now panicked.

"Sir! Wait a minute, sir! Didn't you say ten to one? There were more than 1000 people before. According to ten to one, there were at least a hundred. Why are there only forty now!"

"Why, sir? Why are there only forty? Isn't it agreed that ten will save one?"

"Your Majesty, Sir, I am the earliest to come and the last to leave every day. I have finally managed to get into the top [-] in terms of training progress in the recent period. Why are there suddenly only [-]?"

As soon as Xiao Shi finished reading, the whole backyard of the county government office exploded.

"Shut up! Shut up, everyone!"

Xiao Shi snorted coldly, his eyes swept over the people who made the most fuss, and they were immediately frightened so that they didn't dare to say anything anymore.

When the scene was completely quiet, Xiao Shi continued to speak: "I said at the beginning that ten qualified candidates would be selected from every hundred people. Now you have four hundred and nine, and you have selected forty. What's wrong with that?"

"Yes, but weren't there more than 500 people who came here originally?"

The young man who felt that he was ranked in the top fifty felt very unwilling and had the courage to ask.

"It's three months from now, not three months ago."

Xiao Shi's dagger-like eyes swept across his body, and he immediately shrank his neck in fear.

"Okay, do you have anything else to ask? If you don't, just get out of here. This is an important place of the county government. No idlers are allowed in!"

With the final sentencing over, those young men had no choice but to leave, no matter how unwilling they were.

When only the forty qualified teenagers were left in the backyard, Xiao Shi's expression softened a lot.

"Three days later, the forty of you who have passed the external training will go to Cangping County, which is part of Mangshan County, together with the seventeen people who have passed the internal training. At that time, the elimination system will also be implemented."

"But you don't have to worry. Even if you are eliminated by then, you can still go back to our Mangshan County and work as a police officer, yamen servant or the like. If you pass the exam, there will be more benefits."

"Just have a good rest these two days and wait for the carriage to Cangping County in three days."
