Interstellar Miner

Chapter 29

Huang Xiuxiu and Mo Xuan entered the examination room. Although Lu Zhishan was the county mayor, he had no right to enter the examination room. Orders were issued to maintain order outside the examination room, just to keep as quiet as possible during the exam.

In the center of the examination room, there is a small wooden cabin with a table and two mahogany chairs inside.This is the office of the chief examiner and invigilator immortal.A square gold seal hangs on the beam of the house.

Huang Xiuxiu and Mo Xuan sat on mahogany chairs, quietly waiting for the arrival of the time.

All the soldiers with swords and armor have left the test building, leaving only two standing guard at the stairs on the ground floor.

The invigilators filed out from the rest hall, wearing cloth shoes and wrapped in layers of cotton, walking and climbing the stairs quietly.

There are two invigilators on the first floor, patrolling back and forth.

The invigilators are all young students who have taken the major exams and know that even the slightest noise can affect the examinees, so they suppress their breathing as low as possible.

The time has come!

Huang Xiuxiu stood up, untied the golden seal hanging from the beam, input the power of immortality, and threw it into the air.Jin Yin flew high into the sky, stopped abruptly, shone brightly, and turned into a transparent cauldron that contained the entire examination room in it!
Mo Xuan knew that this golden seal was the Great Seal of Prosperity, which could suppress luck and allow candidates to compete with fair literary talents in this examination room.

More than 20 students gathered together to write papers. If there is no suppression, the literary spirit is condensed, and the aura shines, it will not interfere with the rest of the candidates.

As an immortal invigilator, Mo Xuan is mainly responsible for finding out whether any of the examinees cheated by using spiritual weapons. Nowadays, whoever is not open-minded dares to play tricks under the eyes of the immortal, so Mo Xuan is very leisurely.

Most of the things are in charge of the examiner Huang Xiuxiu.

Huang Xiuxiu's voice covered the entire examination room: "The big exam has begun, and the first question will be given by Taoist Chihaya. Listen!"

In a small wing room, Mo Que'er blinked in surprise, listen?What kind of subject is this?
Huang Xiuxiu took out a jade stack and tapped it three times with her fingers.The clear and sweet voice of Taoist Qianzao spread in all directions.

Mo Que'er was stunned, and the sound of reading the Taoist scriptures rang in his ears. It was very subtle at first, but gradually, the voice became louder, and finally it was like a loudspeaker shouting to the ear, very ear-piercing.

Mo Que'er was frowning, her voice gradually became quieter, and she uttered the test question in a somewhat indistinct voice, but her voice disappeared as she spoke.

Like all children, Mo Que'er is very uncomfortable. What's the matter?It also prevents people from taking the exam well!In the past, the questions were not read directly by the examiner, but what is it like now!It's vague, and the questions are not clear, how can I answer the questions?

Mo Xuan's face is weird, Daoist Qianzao is really interesting, this test question is very particular about hearing ability and sensitivity to spiritual energy, the test questions are quite satisfactory, but Daoist Qianzao also set up a back door, if you hear the last four inaudible words , direct full marks.

Of course, as a fairy, Mo Xuan could barely hear clearly. If someone in an ordinary child could hear these four words, he would be a genius!

Huang Xiuxiu knocked three more times.

The students in the examination room were all attentive and listening with their ears upright. Most of them understood the examination questions clearly this time.

Mo Que'er frowned, what did Lord Qianzao say in the end?The voice is too low, is it the key to this question?

"One last time." Huang Xiuxiu knocked three more times.

Tong Sheng, who hadn't heard the test questions clearly after listening to it twice, was sweating all over his body and felt guilty, but what should he do?Han Chuang has been studying hard for so many years, if he doesn't even have a chance to answer the questions, he still has the face to go home and meet his parents!

Fortunately, the third time the sound was louder, and since I had heard it twice before, even if I couldn't hear a small part clearly, it didn't interfere with the final exam questions.

This time, only a very small number of children still failed to hear the exam questions clearly. They are very sad and can only wait for next year to try again!
Mo Que'er frowned suspiciously, blinked her big eyes, picked up a brush and dipped it in the ink, and wrote four big characters on the examination paper: Heaven rewards those who work hard.

Mo Que'er put down the brush, still hesitant. Could it be that the first question of this year's exam is the listening test?

Huang Xiuxiu let out a surprise, that little girl heard those four words, and she seemed to have already practiced it, oh, it's Mo Que'er!

Huang Xiuxiu smiled slightly at Mo Xuan, your little girl is really nice.

Mo Xuan laughed happily, Mo Que'er is our little Phoenix!

Even though the quota for the big exam has been determined by default, this year Daoist Qianzao's questions are very special. As long as he can hear these four words, he is a peerless genius, and Qianzao will accept him into the door.As for the quota of cultivating immortals, it is the matter of Daoist Qianzao signing his name.

I just don't know how many candidates can hear those four words in the thirteen states this year.

At noon, baskets of pancakes were carried into the examination building and distributed by the invigilators.

At this time, everyone was hungry. Seeing that although the pancakes were simple, they were made of vegetable oil, eggs, and noodles, and they were fragrant, so they took clean water and gnawed on them.

It's not that the county is stingy, but that the meat is easy to upset the stomach. If there is a sudden illness, how can you continue the exam.Therefore, a tradition has been formed, and the Chinese food in the big test is pancakes and clear water.Breakfast and dinner are all big white steamed buns and white rice porridge, so you can feel full.

Mo Que'er ate without taste, and missed the special roast chicken in the small restaurant on Da Kao Street. It was so delicious, it made my mouth water.Mo Que'er decided to buy dozens of them and take them home to eat slowly. They can be stored in grandpa's pearls, and they will still be hot and fresh after a year or so.

Because cultivating immortals in the examination room will affect other people's examinations, Mo Que'er finished half an hour of today's practice in the middle of the night, and will have to spend the whole day in the examination room the next day, so there is no way to practice.Finish the exam early on the third day, and hurry back to practice.

In the afternoon and evening, Mo Que'er had nothing to do and was too busy to panic.Mo Que'er secretly thought that his character was not mature enough and needed to be honed.

The next day, Huang Xiuxiu came up with five exam questions, three questions about Taoism, classics, Mo Yi, and two questions about the strategy of governing the world.

On the third day, Mo Xuan asked three questions.Candidates have long been exhausted physically and mentally, so the questions should not be too many.

Candidates who finished the test handed in their papers and left one after another. When the last candidate left, the test room was closed again.

Huang Xiuxiu took out the pre-ordered four-person examination paper and put it aside, picked up Mo Que'er's examination paper to read, nodded in admiration, and couldn't bear to let it go.

Mo Xuan looked at the exam papers of the other three people. The first paper was flawed, and the second and third papers were quite good because of the thoroughness of the questions.

The examiners worked overtime to check and mark the papers, and it took three days. Finally, the top [-] were selected, rolled into scrolls, and neatly arranged on the table.The rest of the failed exam papers were piled up outside the house, turning into a hill.

The examiners were all wearing black smoke rings. Even if they drank ginseng soup for a few days, they were exhausted and felt overwhelmed.

Huang Xiuxiu didn't grumble at all, just pointing to the sky, the transparent pot lid mask suddenly shrunk, turned back into a golden seal, and floated back to Huang Xiuxiu's palm.

Without the suppression, more than 20 examination papers were filled with a fountain of literary energy. White air emerged from each paper. The hill of examination papers piled up outside the house suddenly exploded. Countless examination papers were flying all over the sky. Red style.

Mo Xuan only glanced outside the room, showing no bright style, and focused on the inside of the room.

[-] scrolls bursting with literary energy, all above light red, many reaching crimson, with yellow and golden on top, what's more, gradually turning light blue, only a few volumes.

The white gas in the examination paper shows that the examinee has literary talents, and ordinary students can have white gas; light red and red red are considered outstanding literary talents, yellow is not ordinary, and the articles are already proficient; those who can write blue articles are outstanding, even if they can’t Cultivation of Immortals will also be a great talent for governing the world in the future, and will be cultivated by the state and county!

The examiners were fascinated by the sight. Not everyone can see this kind of scene, and to avoid suspicion, the examiners are not allowed to be re-elected. I don’t know how many years will be until the next time I see you again. Maybe there will be no chance!

Soon the examiners' attention was attracted by the four scrolls set aside.These four scrolls are all above light blue, and one scroll is actually pure blue, even mixed with a hint of purple!
The examiners looked at each other in amazement, a trace of purple, I am afraid that there is only a trace, that also means that this article should be in line with the great way of heaven and earth!Those who can write such articles must be immortal cultivators!

"Let's sort it out." Huang Xiuxiu ordered lightly.

You can only look at a general idea of ​​Wenqi, and the specific ranking depends on the answers to the three test questions of each candidate. Points will be deducted for wrong answers and under-answered questions. The examiners have reviewed the test papers several times before and divided them into grades. It needs to be fine-tuned according to the style.

The examiners just woke up like a dream, and all the light blue, golden, and yellow were left behind.Red and light red were repeatedly screened and compared, and finally 504 volumes were removed.

Then start sorting from No.1.The examiners passed Mo Queer's examination papers around as if they had found a treasure. The second and third papers were answered flawlessly, but the first paper only had four words. This...

Huang Xiuxiu simply pointed out: "With these four words, it is a full score."

The examiners didn't know why, but they didn't dare to question the majesty of the immortal, and they sorted them out step by step.

Mo Que'er took the first place as a matter of course, and the other three were internally determined, two of which were in the top three, and the other was named No.6.

The examiners were busy for another half day, and the top [-] candidates were finally sorted.The examiners breathed a sigh of relief, and several examiners sat down on the ground, really exhausted.

The final ranking will be determined by the examiner Huang Xiuxiu.

The examiners knew it well, looked at the four volumes that were specially placed aside, and secretly guessed.

Mo Xuan was also quite curious. In the past, there were only three places, so how to adjust the four places?
Huang Xiuxiu had done her homework in advance, picked up a brush and quickly filled in the name on the big list, Mo Queer's No. 6 was undoubted, and the default No. 3 directly became No. 4 tied. No.5 and No.[-] each retreat one, and the rest remain unchanged.

Four places?The examiners are all dumbfounded, can this still be the case?The examiners felt very bewildered, and then a lot of uneasiness arose.

Will these four places of cultivating immortals be born, cause turmoil?

Huang Xiuxiu put down the brush and pressed the gold seal on the big list.

Huang Xiuxiu shook the golden seal a few more times, and immediately all the gushing literary energy inside and outside the room was sucked in by the golden seal, and it became calm.

Finally, Huang Xiuxiu hung the gold seal back on the beam of the house and called it a day!
Outside the examination room, more than 20 examinees were eagerly looking forward to it, and the entire street was crowded with darkness.

The scorching sun was shining, and the sweat was pouring down, all unresolved. The candidates' eyes were full of expectations. Even though they knew that the hope was extremely slim, they still held a glimmer of hope. They would never give up until the last moment.

Those who did not do well in the exam hoped to enter the big list, those who had the ability to enter the list expected to rank higher, and those who thought they did well in the exam hoped to enter the top three and get a place to cultivate immortals.

Of course Mo Que'er is not included.

Mo Que'er is not sure that she is No.1, but No.2 can't escape. Besides, she has already started cultivating immortality. Does ranking mean anything to her?

These days, Lu Zhishan has been guarding outside the examination room. Knowing the answer already, he is not anxious. He is only concerned about the outstanding talents that will emerge this year, and how to win over and strengthen the strength of the Lu family, paving the way for the descendants of the Lu family.

After a long wait, the big list has finally been announced!On the high platform, a golden scroll was hung horizontally, with a thousand names densely packed.

The vocalist with a loud voice starts from No.1.

Qingshan County - Moqueer, it really is Moqueer!Last year's No.4, this year's number one seed player, really won the first place!There is nothing wrong with this!

No.2 is also a great talent, and he got a good ranking last year, which is acceptable.It's just that many candidates with fantasies turned black, and there was only one last place left!

No.3, it turned out to be a double yolk egg!These two people are slightly less famous, but they are also well-known talents, not unknown people.

Those three people were all ecstatic, with tears in their eyes, still dizzy amidst the congratulations from their friends, they had performed a full set of plays, of course, they were also really happy and excited, finally able to cultivate immortality, in order to have this day , full of blood and tears!
Unspoken rules are not so easy to deal with. If they are too obvious, the candidates will be dissatisfied and cause turmoil!
Today only a handful of candidates are aggrieved.

In terms of real materials, several candidates did not think that they would lose to the No.3 two, and they performed quite well in the final exam this year. Why is it that I am not tied for No.3!

Soon, the examinees heard their own names, and they were all in the top ten, but there was an immortal gap between the top ten and the top three that could not be crossed!Woah!
The candidates in the top ten beat their thighs hard.

Angry!Hate!It's rare that he performed very well in this big exam, but still failed to enter the top three!It may not be the case next year. The immortal in charge and the invigilator have different styles and focuses of the questions. If you make a wrong question, it may be difficult to even enter the top [-]!
Lu Zhishan memorized all the candidates with the highest rankings and nodded slightly. These are all rare talents.
