Chapter 181 Approaching the Gods (3)
Before entering the dragon gate, there is another huge courtyard, full of people who are taking exams.
The jade chime has not yet sounded and the gantry has not opened. The final arrangements should be being made in the examination room.
As a result, most of the candidates stood alone, either chanting the words in their mouths or memorizing them silently, some put their hands together and looked up to the Supreme God to temporarily hold the God's feet, and some even started to be so nervous that they had abdominal pain and wanted to vomit.
If you come with classmates or friends, you will gather in twos and threes, cheer each other up and bless each other, and chat a few words to relieve bad moods.
"Dongdong, the exam went well. After the exam, go have a late-night snack and eat your favorite spicy rabbit head."
Liu Sheng saw that Wang Dongdong was about to enter a state of nervousness to the point of difficulty breathing, so he had to comfort him and use food Stimulating Dafa.
Unfortunately, what Liu Sheng obtained cannot be explained to Wang Dongdong.
Besides, she hadn’t even understood it yet. It was full of various symbols and garbled codes. Judging from the rules, it seemed to be a computer language, but it was much more advanced than Yiyu World’s.
It’s just that the world said there will be a university exam, so rest assured.
Of course Liu Sheng believes in the world. Believing in the world means believing in yourself. This is self-confidence.
Wang Dongdong nodded solemnly and said: "Shengsheng, with your ability, you will definitely be able to get into high school, and even be the top scholar!"
But Wang Dongdong's voice was too loud, and there was a circle of candidates around him. After hearing this, they all looked over to see who had the talent to be the top scholar.
Liu Sheng was a little embarrassed and wanted to take out [a mysterious narrow door] and get in. Unfortunately, he didn’t bring a storage bag. The [narrow door] was also used to place the ones who had been clamoring to follow. Ling Xiaoshu.
Unexpectedly, a slight sneer was heard.
A man with a sharp mouth and monkey cheeks said: "Where can a cat or a dog claim to be the number one scholar? Don't think that just because you are cute, you can do whatever you want!"
A short and cute boy next to him was suddenly startled and muttered in a low voice: "They don't either Calls himself..."
It turns out that his companion also said similar words to him. When he heard the word "cute", he couldn't help but agree.
"Let me tell you, I know the list of the top ten favorites to win this imperial examination by heart, and I remember their appearance clearly, but I have never seen a person like you." The monkey-cheeked man looked straight at Liu Sheng, make it clear who you are talking about.
"Brother Hou, I wonder who are the top ten?" asked a good person.
"My surname is not Hou! My surname is Zhu!" Brother Zhu was so angry that his cheeks were bulging, but he was not that thin anymore.
"Oh, I'm sorry, Brother Zhu, who are the top ten?"
This cheap swishing sound sounded familiar to Liu Sheng. He turned around and saw Gao Yi Sheng met her eyes and winked at her.
"The first one, of course, is Mr. Wen, the son of Wen Shoufu, who is number one in realm." Brother Zhu raised a slender finger and counted.
As soon as the name "Mr. Wen" came out, there were a lot of whispers.
But Wen Xuanning was still queuing outside and couldn't hear everyone's comments.
"Second, the chief of Chang'an Academy, Chu Shudu."
"Third, the daughter of Ling Shangshu of the Ministry of Industry, Ling Yuke."
Everyone listened and listened. Gathering around, waiting to hear the next one.
Those who are not in the mood for gossip can’t help but prick up their ears to change their minds and relieve tension.
"This makes sense, and I heard that Mr. Wen and Miss Ling's father is one of the people who wrote the question... Wouldn't it be okay to go home?" Someone with the courage to arrange it.
"This is wrong. Anyone who raises a question will be monitored by the Royal Forest Army when traveling in the past few days to avoid leaking the question." There was one person who knew the situation better.
"How did you know?" Others asked doubtfully.
"My father is from the Royal Forest Army. He hasn't been home for a few days..."
"Oh..."
A girl in pink clothes said impatiently: "If you ask me, it's better than before. When the National Academy of Sciences issues questions, just let the person who writes the questions never leave the academy. Why are there so many troubles?"
Everyone gasped when they heard her bold words.
"Girl, be careful what you say...the person who asked the question is the examiner, and he is waiting inside..." a kind person reminded.
But there was another kinder person who tugged on the good Samaritan's sleeve and whispered: "Don't worry, her father is the examiner..."
Liu Sheng and Wang Dongdong saw it clearly. Naturally, he recognized that girl as Ling Yuke.
Of course Ling Yuke heard this, and her face was full of coldness and arrogance: "Humph, it's all my fault that my father became an examiner. I haven't seen him for five days."
As soon as he said this, Silence fell. "Master Ling has important responsibilities, so of course he cannot be separated." Someone couldn't see the cold scene and took the initiative to comfort him.
"Senior sister and Lord Ling really have a deep love for each other as father and daughter, haha, haha."
"Who is your senior sister?" Ling Yuke rolled her eyes dissatisfied at the relationship. people.
Wang Dongdong whispered to Liu Sheng quietly: "What does it mean to be good at being cheap?"
Liu Sheng reminded in a low voice: "We also took advantage of her, although we only took advantage of her for one day."
" ...Okay." Wang Dongdong reluctantly closed his mouth.
After all, they revealed the direction a day in advance, although it was of little use to Wang Dongdong.
Ling Yuke's behavior may be unpopular. Although he is good-looking and has a good family background, no one answered him again, and the conversation was passed quickly without any embarrassment.
"Brother Monkey, keep going."
"My name is not Brother Monkey! Hey, brother, this is your second time."
"Oh, Brother Pig, please say ." Gao Yisheng said unapologetically.
“Our class is full of stars, let me continue to explain one by one.”
Obviously this is not a good thing for ordinary candidates, but Brother Zhu said it with a straight face He was proud and spoke eloquently. I don’t know whether he came to take an exam or to teach.
"Fourth, Jing Hao, the eldest son of Duke Dingguo."
When Liu Sheng and Wang Dongdong heard this name, they quickly looked around to see if Jing Hao was here, and it turned out that he was really under the loquat tree in the yard. , seeing him leaning against the tree with an indifferent expression, as if he didn't hear his name.
"Fifth, Xichuan Xie family's thank you banquet, the younger brother of Xie Tang, the last number one scholar."
Wang Dongdong knew this and said to Liu Sheng: "It turns out that Xiao Yanzi also has this Yes, he is indeed very smart. But we haven’t seen each other for a long time. I rarely go back to Xichuan."
"Sixth, the daughter of the young minister of Dali Temple, Lin Shuying."
Liu Sheng looked for this familiar name. Lin Shuying and Qu Chunyan stood together and quietly made a silent expression to her, obviously not wanting to be too high-profile.
"Brother Pig, no Brother Monkey, your list sounds like they are all officials' children, except for Chu Shudu." Gao Yisheng frowned.
Others nodded.
“Are there no children from poor families?”
“That’s right.”
"It's a bit biased and looks down on poor families, right?"
There are thousands of candidates taking this exam, how many of them come from well-known families?
Most of them are just children from poor families with dreams.
It’s just that those who can reach the sixth level of the first realm, their family background is generally not too bad.
“I don’t know where this list comes from. Isn’t it Brother Monkey’s sexual desire?” Some people even questioned the source of the list.
"Oh, don't worry, don't worry." Brother Zhu no longer struggled with the title and hurriedly explained, "My list was revealed internally by someone, saying that these are all observation options from above..."
" As for the poor families, let me continue. Everyone knows the reason why the children from the poor families are not ranked first. "
Of course everyone knows.
Some people can know the direction of the test questions early and prepare early, but most people can only wait for the Ministry of Rites to announce it. Although according to the current direction, knowing it early may not bring much advantage.
But what if? Who knows if there are any other tips that I haven’t told you yet?
So in the past few days, there have always been some minor frictions between the children of officials and the children of poor families.
"Seventh, the chief of Hanshan Academy, Shen Ziyan. Look, isn't this coming?"
This is Xiao Liu Sheng's second or third junior disciple, but Liu Sheng doesn't recognize him.
"Eighth, the chief of Luming Academy, Lu Shen."
Senior Brother Lu has not come yet, but according to his temperament, he will be very embarrassed when he hears that he is actually on the list. Black face flushed.
"Ninth, the chief of Bailu Academy, Xu Dajuan."
"Tenth, Liu Sheng."
