Chapter 114: The Advancement of Archery
As the sky in the east turned white, the morning light enveloped the examination room. At this time, the first sound of cloud board sounded from the escort building in the distance, and the time for the scientific examination finally came.
Ye Qiu placed three formal answer sheets, three drafts, and a piece of famous paper on the desktop, a total of seven pieces of paper one by one. No one can be missing when handing over the paper, otherwise this exam would be directly judged as unqualified.
After a while, two soldiers held up the test cards and set off from both ends at the same time, passing by the entrances of each number room in turn.
There are five questions about the Silent Sutra in the Strategy Test and three questions, which are presented in two times. The soldiers holding the sign will show all the questions within one stick of incense.
When he held the sign and passed by Ye Qiu, he quickly picked up his pen and copied the test questions. At this time, he had already lit a candle. Under the light and dark candlelight, neatly written regular characters on the surface of the paper.
Now Ye Qiu's calligraphy is written more decently, and it is not called calligraphy, but at least it is horizontal and vertical, not like earthworms crawling.
If such words are used to take the imperial examination, they will definitely have to be reduced, but for martial arts, it is already good.
The five questions of the Silent Sutra are all from the contents of the "Seven Books of the Martial Classics" and "Biography of the Hundred Generals". Ye Qiu had already memorized them and quickly wrote the answers on the answer sheet.
When the three questions of strategy were presented, Ye Qiu was inexplicably surprised. Two of these three questions were quite similar to those given by Feng Hu. They could copy them with just a little modification.
Both of these questions are related to the battle situation in Liaodong. It seems that the situation of the imperial court in Liaodong is indeed extremely bad!
Ye Qiu was completely relieved and had time to think about anything else.
He slowly pondered the ink to calm his mood, and words flowed through his mind.
The most time-consuming questioning is, especially for these warriors who don’t have much ink in their stomachs, they rack their brains one by one.
In addition to Feng Hu and Ye Qiu, there are also several candidates who write quickly, and they are obviously in the fun.
In addition, Ye E was also leisurely and even took a nap at noon. The snoring sound like thunder made the candidates on both sides unbearable and protested to the inspectors who were inspecting righteously.
The examiner looked at the candidate who was sleeping soundly on the wooden board with a laugh and laughing, and poked his face with a wooden stick twice. Ye E finally woke up, touched the saliva at the corner of his mouth, and asked with a confused look: "Uh! Yes, is it going to have a meal?"
The examiner held back his laughter and scolded: "You are not allowed to sleep anymore, don't affect other candidates' exams!"
Ye E then woke up, patted his head embarrassedly, and said to the wooden boards on both sides: "I'm sorry, I'm sorry."
When the first test is half an hour before the end of the first test, the gong on the urging floor sounded. The sound of the gong reminded the candidates that the exam is about to end in half an hour, and you can hand in the paper at this time.
Ye Qiu had already answered all the test questions and checked them twice to make sure that one word was good.
At this time, he heard the sound of a gong, and he picked up his pen and wrote down his hometown, name and test number above the scroll. He folded the name and took paste from the basket, pasted the edges with a paste paper, and waited for the paper to dry out.
It was already evening, and it was soon completely dark. Without candle lighting, it was impossible to write. Some candidates used up their candles in the morning. At this time, they could not continue to do it and kept hearing the despairing cry of candidates.
Ye Qiu shook his head slightly and shook the bell hanging on the roof.
A moment later, an examiner appeared in front of him. Ye Qiu pushed the neatly arranged paper forward. The examiner counted the paper and took away the three regular papers, saying expressionlessly: "You can leave now, don't talk on the road!"
Ye Qiu stood up and left the exam room where he had been sitting for a day. He felt that his legs were a little numb, but he felt extremely relaxed. No matter what, the first exam was finally over.
And, it feels pretty good!
When he walked out of the gate of the Gongyuan, he couldn't help but stretched his body for a long time and took a deep breath. The air in the evening of March was fresh and slightly cold, which made his slightly drowsy mind suddenly become awake.
"Brother Qiu, you are indeed out."
A voice sounded behind his back. Ye Qiu looked back and saw that it was Feng Hu walking quickly.
"The second brother hasn't come out yet?" Ye Qiu asked.
Feng Hu laughed and said, "He has come out long ago. My exam room is right in front of him. This kid made a face when he passed by me."
Ye Qiu shook his head, knowing that his second brother must have given up.
What a pity, if he followed me and memorized the test questions given by Feng Hu seriously, he might have passed this game.
As long as you try it, Ye E, who already has a sense of energy, should have a good chance of qualifying for the archery and the competition behind him.
But after a second thought, I thought that Xiye still had a cute place to supplement, so my eldest brother Ye Huan definitely didn't need it. Obviously, it should have been prepared for the second brother.
Although Enmeng has little chance of becoming an official, it is obviously the best for a person like his second brother who is stumbled.
In a restaurant opposite the Gongyuan, Ye E hugged and walked out, "Two, how did you do the exam? You can't do it, you answer the questions too slowly. Look at me, brother, but I am the first one to hand in the paper."
Ye Qiu and Feng Hu looked at each other and shook their heads together. This kid was helpless and didn't care about Wu Ke at all.
...
"What, two questions were guessed!" In the inn room, Ye E jumped up, extremely upset.
Ye Qiu and Feng Hu returned to their room with satisfaction.
You can't make this guy too proud!
Soon, Ye Qiu took the copper-tied bow and walked into the yard again, and began to practice drawing the bow constantly.
After a while, he was immersed in it. He stood with his feet ignited and he didn't know whether it was a flash of inspiration or something, but suddenly started to operate the Kūkai Guanxin Method.
The stream-like true energy flows along the meridians, and then flows into the fingertips with the pulling of the hands, and finally merges into the copper burial bow...
The "pulsation" of the copper-fetal bow slowly appeared in his heart.
This feeling...
Ye Qiu's movements stopped suddenly and rushed back to his room. After a while, he ran out with an arrow on his shoulder.
No target...
Ye Qiu, who was standing in the yard, looked around and finally picked up a few stones the size of copper coin on the ground, placed them on the stone table in the yard, and then walked twenty steps away.
He grabbed the copper-tied bow and pulled the bow for more than twenty times, savoring the control force carefully, and soon he found the feeling of unity of human bows just now.
He suddenly pulled out an arrow, pulled out his bow, and shot it with a whoosh. The arrow was fierce and fast, and a stone twenty steps away was suddenly shot to the ground.
Just as the arrow was drawn, Ye Qiu suddenly felt his true energy extending to the arrow and becoming a part of his hand.
Chapter completed!
