Heavenly Dao Formula

Chapter 3: Examination content

   However, Xia Fan didn't leave the teahouse directly, but stopped at the corner of the stairs. He waited until the shop Xiaoer sent a new order of braised beef before calling him and putting the beef into his pocket.

   Facing the strange request of the guest officer, Xiao Er didn't have too much doubts, after all, he was sitting at the same table with Wei Wushuang before, and the latter was still sitting in his seat.

   After "packing" the beef, Xia Fan came out of the teahouse unhurriedly-in this way, even lunch was saved.

   Anyway, my fellow villagers said don’t be polite, order what you want to eat, and he also believed that Wei Wushuang would not mind this plate of braised beef that disappeared out of thin air.

To be honest, he was not bad in his evaluation of this young boy, his temperament was not bad, and he could face himself in shame and annoyance. This is rare. Besides, his family background is quite solid. If he wins, he will be in Fenghua County. Life must be much better. It's a pity that what he said was the truth. Since he took the exam because of family coercion, there was no need to take that risk.

   Master has repeatedly told him that dealing with evil is a serious matter. If you don't make up your mind and make perfect preparations, you should never intervene easily.

   Judging from the style of the cheap master who only deals with little ghosts and little charms, and avoids them as soon as he meets the alchemist of the Privy Council, he has not lied to himself.

  In the afternoon, the invigilator finally summoned everyone to the center of the town and informed the content of the assessment.

  The theme is unexpectedly simple, as long as you fill up a bottle of Spirit Fire Source within a limited time.

   The so-called "spiritual fire" is commonly known as the "ghost fire". Its source can be used as the release medicinal material for several alchemy after being dried and ground. It is relatively easy to prepare.

   Of course, Xia Fan would not stand up and say that this phenomenon should be called phosphorous fire. It burns phosphine, which is produced from decayed human bones—because those powders can indeed trigger some magical phenomena and are repeatable. The latter is the most important creed in scientific experiments.

   His common sense does not work here, or it is operating in another form that he does not know.

  Because the spirit fire is not rare, it is easy to collect, just bring a shovel and dig down. Therefore, as soon as the content of the main test came out, there was a commotion in the crowd.

  No wonder the candidates are surprised that even ordinary people, as long as they are courageous enough, can easily do this.

   The invigilator ignored everyone's comments and uncovered the red silk beside him, revealing a sign and a long table underneath.

   There are a lot of porcelain vases on the table, which are obviously the containers used by Shikao.

   The ink on the sign is a further explanation of the assessment rules, but overall it is also very concise, with only three items.

   "1. The test time is seven days, during which time you cannot leave Qingshan Town."

   "Second, it is forbidden to interfere in the daily life of the villagers."

   "3. Don't murder the same candidates."

"Candidates who violate any of the above rules will be directly judged as unqualified!" The invigilator said loudly, "Then, the tenth exam for Daqiguo will begin. I wish you all the best!" Turn around and leave at all. Explain the meaning to everyone.

   "Wait, seven days?" Everyone was in an uproar.

   "What can be done in one day, why should I stay for so long?"

   "Wouldn't everyone be qualified!"

   "Just take care of him, take the bottle first."

   This sentence seemed to remind everyone. The scene became extremely chaotic for a while. The ones in the front couldn't get out with the bottles, and the ones behind couldn't get in. Even in the process of pushing, several porcelain bottles slipped off the table and fell to pieces. Candidates who haven't gotten it are afraid that they will be disqualified because they don't have a bottle. They will push harder, and someone who accidentally falls over will turn into a stampede.

   "Stop it all!"

   Suddenly, a crisp voice resounded through the audience.

   I saw a woman leaping onto the long table, pulling out the wooden sword on her waist, and making a pose that was about to slash, "Whoever takes another step, I will break all these bottles!"

   The commotion was suddenly stagnant.

   No one even questioned it—because they did find that there was no rule prohibiting damage to the container. Once she really did that, would it be angered by the public to say that they could not complete the assessment but it was a certainty.

   "Sister, what are you doing?"

  , it was a young man who wore the same clothes as the woman who stood up anxiously.

"Of course it is to maintain order." The woman gave a nice smile, and then nodded the sword towards the crowd. "The one over there, please help the person who fell! And you, and you, both help. people!"

   "Why should I listen to you?" Someone said not.

   "Huh?" The girl pressed the sword in her hand a few points.

   The pressure instantly shifted to the protesters. Under the scorching eyes of everyone, the named candidates obediently stretched out their hands towards the faller.

   "Very good! Others, come forward one by one and come to me to pick up the bottles! Don't worry, there are still a few boxes of bottles behind this table, the number is definitely enough. Brothers and sisters don't stand there, come and help me.

   In a few words, a possible trampling will be eliminated without a trace.

Being squeezed in the crowd and unable to move, Xia Fan was finally able to ease his breath. While following the flow of people, he looked at the woman curiously—she looked not tall, at most fifteen or six years old, with a face. Still not getting rid of the childishness, but already has the foundation of beauty. In particular, a pair of big eyes are particularly agile, just like holding a clear spring.

   And the brocade robe she wore was equally eye-catching. The light blue fabric is very valuable at a glance, and a pair of feathers are embroidered on the shoulders, and the lines are rooted in the roots, as if they are real. Looking at the candidates who wore the same clothes as her, we knew that these people were the "disciples of aristocratic family" that Wei Wushuang called.

   "Are they... from the Luo family in Youzhou?"

   "Suzaku Shuangyu, you should not be wrong."

   Hearing people around him whispering, Xia Fan couldn't help but interject, "Hey, this Xiongtai, is the Luo family famous?"

   "Have you never even heard of the Luo Family?" The man glanced at him suspiciously. "They are big scholars. Every time there are qualified candidates, it is nothing to them. The top three will basically have a place in the Luo family."

   "By the way, I heard before that there are a lot of talented disciples of the Luo family, and one of the girls is even more talented. Is that she?" the other person answered.

   "No way...this move is a bit too reckless, not like a genius. Didn't you see her brother is also extremely dissatisfied with this move?"

   "Indeed, if she is not from the Luo family, this time the exam will end here."

   "Oh, after offending so many people, even if she is a disciple of the family, she may not be safe in the next few days."

   Xia Fan disagrees with this statement. The reason why the other party can instantly control the scene has nothing to do with her identity. The key is that she has grasped the candidates' fate so that she can use a few words to frighten everyone into motion.

   Even if it is an ordinary person, as long as he notices the key points, he can do this.

   With someone who maintains order, the flow in the field has become faster. After a while, Xia Fan, who was at the back, received his porcelain bottle.

   At this time, the girl had already got off the table and was called aside by her brother.

   Judging from the expressions of the two, there seemed to be a bit of dispute, but the man's face was not more angry, but worried.

   When passing by them far, Xia Fan also heard a few conversations, and obviously the two did not deliberately lower their voices.

   "...you should be aware that it is not only our family who participated in the exam..."

   "The Fei family and the Fang family are looking at us, and the people in the palace..."

   "Brother, I know."

   "Then why are you doing this?"

"We will all enter the Privy Council... and the biggest responsibility of the Privy Council is to maintain the order of the world. It is fine to adapt in advance. What's more--" When she said this, she turned her head, as if she knew Xia Fan I could hear these words and smiled at him, "At that time, we were in the center of the vortex, and if we blindly stood by, we might also be affected by the chaos."

   It seems that the little girl is also very sensitive in five senses.

   Xia Fan added another after her insightful evaluation.

  Since you don’t lower the volume, I am not eavesdropping either-after returning a straight smile, he turned his attention back to the content of the exam.

The porcelain bottle in my hand is pure white, and there is a burning seal of the Privy Council on the bottom. It should be specially prepared for Shikao. It is about the size of a mineral water bottle. It obviously requires a lot of bone meal to fill it up-no, Spirit Fire source of. Considering that the number of people participating in this examination is about four hundred, the total amount of the source of spiritual fire at UU Reading www.uukānshu.com is a bit staggering. If there is no large cemetery, it is really difficult to get it.

  The problem is that Qingshan Town is so big, even if the residents are buried, it is estimated that it will not make up the number required for the examination.

   Of course, since it is an exam, it is normal for a part to be eliminated. It seems that the first test in the assessment should be the candidate's information gathering ability.

   Xia Fan also noticed that when most of the referees were still questioning the content of the test, a small group of people had quietly left the central area. I'm afraid these people have realized that whoever can find the spiritual fire place of Qingshan Town first can seize the opportunity-and asking the locals or asking them to lead the way is a good choice.

   But after thinking for a while, he finally chose to go to the hotel first.

   If there is only one day for the exam, then he must have followed this small group of people, but the invigilator gave it seven days. In other words, the next board and lodging are likely to be taken care of by themselves, and the small-scale hotel is not enough for everyone to live in. It's not bad if you can fill a hundred. It can be seen that guest rooms must be a scarce resource, and most candidates estimate that they will have to live in the broken houses outside.

   As a "comer" with rich wandering experience, Xia Fan knows the difference between a comfortable house and one that can only shelter from wind and rain. If the harassment of mosquitoes just makes people sleepless, then all kinds of poisonous insects and snakes are a real threat. Moreover, they are now on the mountainside, and the surrounding area is covered by forest. The temperature and humidity of day and night may be completely different due to a heavy rain. In case of a cold, let alone insisting on completing the exam, it would be difficult to even go back alive.

   So he decided to rent a house first.
