Chapter 183 Approaching the Gods (5) (Additional update)
“Get up, don’t sleep.”
In his sleep, someone was patting his shoulder gently.
Liu Sheng slowly raised his head from the desk and yawned widely.
“Get up, the great priest asked you to copy the sacred book carefully, but what happened to you? Did you copy it until you fell asleep?”
Liu Sheng was still a little confused when he was suddenly scolded.
Trying to raise his heavy eyelids, a thin woman's face appeared in front of Liu Sheng, with two narrow eyes full of disgust hanging on her high cheekbones.
I saw her wearing a gray cloth, very simple.
"Well, okay." Liu Sheng seemed to vaguely remember that he had such a task, and was a little embarrassed.
“Forget it, the great priest called you.” The woman seemed a little dissatisfied with this, and Liu Sheng even saw a hint of jealousy, “Go find him first, leave the scriptures alone, and continue copying when you come back. ”
After saying that, the woman hurried away.
She pinched her neck with her hands and looked at the woman's back, feeling really baffled.
I have been lying on the table to sleep, the side of my face is pressed, and my neck is a little sore.
Just now, I seemed to have had a long, long dream, dreaming that I was taking some kind of imperial examination.
It was still a world where cultivation was possible and there were strange things. It was really wonderful.
Liu Sheng recalled everything in the dream and smiled to himself.
【Do you think it is a dream? 】
Liu Sheng was shocked, but looking around, she was the only one in this dark study.
This study room is very simple. There is a small window on the wall, letting in a ray of light. There are only two bookshelves with a few books staggered on them, and many of the shelves are empty.
There is a table and a cushion in the middle.
This is where she just lay down to sleep.
There was an oil lamp placed on the table, illuminating the large thick book on the table and the half-copied parchment.
The only one alive here is herself.
Oh, there may also be a family of mice cowering among the bookshelves.
She almost subconsciously wanted to ask who was speaking, but a strong warning told her that it was absolutely not possible.
【Who are you? 】
【You also said that you are the only one alive, so of course I am you. 】
Liu Sheng was almost stunned.
Pretending as if nothing had happened, she walked out of the study and walked to the great priest's office in her memory.
While walking, continue the conversation with the being in your mind.
[Back to the beginning, do you mean that my dream is not a dream? 】
【Think about it for yourself, do dreams have so many details? 】
At this time, bursts of bells rang outside the corridor, solemn and holy.
After pausing for a moment, Liu Sheng suddenly remembered that when he walked into the imperial examination room in his dream, there were also bursts of sounds in his ears, but it was not a bell, but something...
[The sound of jade chime. 】
[I haven’t seen it before...]
[Then, think about it again. 】
Then Liu Sheng continued walking along the corridor.
Recalling that in my dream, I was walking in the corridors with desks and desks, followed by many people.
Everyone is looking for their seat according to the test guide.
[What is the citation? 】
Liu Sheng was puzzled.
【Continue. 】
Then, according to the "Xuan" column in the examination, "No. 39", she found her desk and sat on the soft cushion next to the desk.
[This is a bit like the table in the study just now. 】
There were pen, ink, paper and inkstones on the desk. She waited quietly for the examination questions to be announced.
But it will not start until everyone has entered. It will take some time for thousands of people to enter the examination room at the same time.
She looked up and saw that far in front of her was a bead curtain hanging with five shadowy figures behind her.
Think about it, that’s the examiner. Liu Sheng could still smell the faint scent of incense lingering in the examination room, which seemed to have a special component and was quite calming.
When everyone was seated, the officials stood around.
The bead curtain moved slightly, and a person inside said: "Jinghe's nine-year examination has officially begun."
The voice was very old, and Liu Sheng thought it was an old man.
As soon as he finished speaking, the sound of the jade chime sounded again.
The burning incense became stronger and stronger, and the purple gas filled the examination room, making people drowsy.
Then, Liu Sheng fell asleep...
[So, with so many details, do you still think it’s a dream? 】
At this time, Liu Sheng did not need to be reminded and woke up.
The eyes instantly changed from dazed to sharp.
【So, this exam is an illusion. 】
She thought firmly.
【What kind of illusion it is, we will know later. 】
At the end of the corridor is the great priest's room.
……
“This candidate should be the fastest to wake up, right?”
Li Shangshu said in surprise, the change in his eyes was a very obvious signal.
“Yes, it’s no more than a cup of tea.” Academician Yan also noticed.
At this time, the jade box in front of them was opened, and the superb divine light poured out. Above it were thousands of mirages, overwhelming the sky, showing the illusions of the candidates who were now sleeping at their desks.
Although there are many mirages, they can still take care of them for those who are above the Cave Mystic Realm.
Currently, most of the candidates are still in the stage of being awakened in a daze, and have not yet realized that they are in the exam, but they are acting in an orderly manner relying on the memories given to them by the illusion.
"This is the first time such a format is used, and I don't know if they can adapt to it."
Hanshan Jun glanced at the candidate who was the quickest to wake up from the illusion casually, and saw the mirage on the right "Xuan Thirty-nine, Liu Sheng" was written in the lower corner, and he nodded silently.
"Whether you can adapt to it or not, this is the Holy Spirit's will."
Mei Yuanzheng said lazily, leaned back, and looked up.
There is a roof covering it, so you can’t see anything.
But he knew that that being was also looking down.
……
“This is not only my intention.”
“It is God’s will.”
A man sitting upright on the royal couch The middle-aged man said.
He was wearing a golden dragon robe, a golden jade crown on his head, and two shiny jade beads in his hands. He was spinning very fast, and he was looking at the thousands of broad mirages in front of him with concentration and seriousness.
Sitting on the left side of the imperial couch is a middle-aged woman with fair skin, beauty, and grace. She is wearing a crimson dress embroidered with gold, and a red coral embroidered gold peacock crown on her head. The dress is embroidered with The auspicious dragon pattern indicates that the middle-aged man is a member of the royal family.
She was facing the tea table at this time, her white neck hanging down, and she was carefully cooking water and making tea. She glanced at the mirage from time to time, as if she was not very interested.
"Brother, the emperor has worked hard, I believe that everyone in the world will know it sooner or later."
The emperor knew that his sister's words were just casual words of comfort, and he smiled bitterly and shook his head: "You, don't worry at all. .”
"Brother, the emperor is worried about me. I am a woman, why do I need to think so much."
"Then don't worry about your..."
"Don't worry. If your spirituality is over 100, in the end, You can be close to the existence of God, do you still need to worry?" The woman smiled gently, without a trace of fine lines at the corners of her eyes, and she still looked like a girl.
"Haha, yes." The emperor smiled heartily.
Suddenly, his eyes narrowed and he let out a soft sigh.
"How about it? Did you see anyone interesting?" the woman asked while lowering her head to share the tea.
"It's indeed interesting." The emperor's eyes were fixed on one of the mirages, and he said casually, "She is already awake. I think Xuanning is not there yet. It's interesting."
Wen After saying that, the woman's slender hand shaking slightly while sharing the tea spilled a few drops on the edge of the tea bowl.
"Really?" She smiled lightly, gently wiped away the traces of tea with a handkerchief, and looked up.
Thank you all for taking advantage of the opportunity to double your monthly votes for me at the beginning of the month. Thank you very much!
Adding an additional chapter, I wish everyone can be a good young man on May 4th Youth Day!
