Group favorite Xiaojiao Bao: The whole family is a big villain
Chapter 343: Civil and Military Examination
The man in black jumped several times and did not leave Jingfa Temple. Instead, he flew sideways to the place where Jingfa Temple provided male guests to live not far from Luoyingyuan.
"Sixth Prince."
As soon as he landed, a man walked out of the darkness and called respectfully.
The man in black casually pulled off the black gauze on his lower body and strode into the wing. Different from Su Jiu's sparrow hut, this wing was several times larger. From the table to the bed, everything was exquisite.
The young man looks about sixteen or seventeen years old, with a tall body and a faint scent of medicine. His face has lost the baby fat and has clear contours. He has a bit more youthful energy, but he is obviously calmer than ten years ago. There are many, but you can still see the ruffianism in the writing.
"Fifth Brother, may I have news?" Su Rongan sat down on the bench and drank two big gulps of water. Monitoring people is also a hard job. If it weren't for him being the best in Qinggong among these people, he would be a dignified person now. How could the Sixth Prince of the Great Beiyan Country do some voyeuristic work? Therefore, as the old saying goes, those who are able work hard, and this is not him.
"Your Majesty, your Majesty, you should memorize some things for this literary test, otherwise you will be unable to enter the martial arts test like the previous few times, and your trip will be in vain." The secret guard conveyed the decree with an expressionless face.
Su Rongan:......
"The emperor also said that ten years have come. With the temperament of the ninth princess, she will definitely come to participate in the fun. With the intelligence of the ninth princess, she will definitely pass the literary test. If you, my lord, fail, you will not be able to see the ninth princess. "
Su Rongan raised his hand, "Hey! Can't I just carry it?"
For so many years, not only the fifth brother, he, his father, Mrs. Zhen, and others have been thinking about Jiu'er all the time. However, the unknown old Taoist once said that he will never let Jiu'er go down the mountain before the ten-year period is up. Now count the days, It's time too.
The fifth brother suspected that the old Taoist had nothing to do with Penglai, so he sent him to investigate every year. He finally found out that Jie Chi had met the owner of Penglai Island. After monitoring for a long time, he didn't find anything. Instead, he found out a piece of orchid. A past story between the noble concubine and the queen mother and Jie Chi.
There are two possibilities now. Jiu'er is not in Penglai and may come to Penglai to attend the Penglai Conference after coming down from the mountain. The second is that Jiu'er is in Penglai, and if you want to see Jiu'er, you must enter Penglai.
Su Rongan sighed softly, resignedly pulled out the past papers that he had compiled over the years from the bookshelf, and started reading at night.
**
Su Jiu could see that Jie Chi was not lying.
as big as World, nothing is nonexistent.
Penglai Island is also called the Immortal Island by the world, and it is not without reason. Walking out of Luoying Xiaoyuan, Su Jiu felt that the problem that had been lingering in her heart for a long time seemed to have gained direction. Or, she knew from the beginning that Penglai Island might have The truth about everything.
After dinner, Su Jiu fell down to sleep. She slept for almost four hours. The night breeze blew her and she was thinking about something, so she wasn't too sleepy. She wanted to go shopping. impulse.
In fact, Jingfa Temple was not far from the feudal prince's palace, and she could even pass by it on the way here, but Su Jiu resolutely chose a longer road.
I don't know why, she...is a little afraid of meeting her eldest brother and the others.
Su Jiu found a tall tree and jumped up, lying on her back on a thick branch, with her arms bent, pillowing her head, staring at the stars in the night, in a daze.
At this moment, Su Jiu thought of the sound of flowing air again, and sighed softly in her heart. Are neither of them sleeping this late at night?
Although he didn't want to ignore it, his body still turned towards the source of the sound very honestly. This time, there were two people coming, wearing night clothes. One of them looked strong, while the other looked a little thinner in comparison with that person.
Su Jiu was walking around randomly just now, not knowing where she was going. Now when she looked carefully, she realized that she seemed to have arrived at the edge of the temple. The buildings here looked very gorgeous, but it was just because there was no one there for too long. After repairs, it looks like fallen leaves have piled up, making it look a bit dilapidated.
There is a banyan tree planted in the yard, and under the banyan tree is a well. It seems that it has not been used for a long time.
What are these two people doing here?
Su Jiu held her head with one hand, looking like she was watching a show.
"Is this where the mission is talking about?"
The thin man among them spoke.
Su Jiu was stunned, feeling like she had heard this voice somewhere before, but for a moment she couldn't remember where she had heard it.
The strong man seemed to be bold and careful. Hearing the slightly complaining voice of his companion, he did not join in the conversation, but after carefully observing it, he zeroed in on the well.
"I'll go down to the well and have a look. You hold the rope." He tied the rope to himself before his companion could say anything and jumped down into the well.
"I'll go! Lei Zi, your temper has become more and more violent in recent years." The thin man quickly pulled the rope, stepped on the edge of the well with one foot, and hooked the other foot on the banyan tree, so that he could barely maintain his figure.
Soon, the man named Lei Zi came out of the well. When he came out, he was holding a pack of black things wrapped in cloth. Due to his body shape, he could only lift the things with one hand and the other. He stood up with one hand supporting the well. When his companion saw this, he immediately let go of the rope and took a few steps up to help. However, he heard a sound piercing the sky. In the moonlight, a silver line flashed past. The two of them immediately became alert, but still Before the two of them could judge who was coming, they saw the silver thread flash past again, and what was hooked at the end of the thread was exactly what they were holding.
The silver thread was tightened extremely quickly, and by the time the two of them reacted, the thing had long since disappeared.
"Depend on!"
The night breeze is cool and the leaves are rustling.
For the first time, the thin man experienced what it means to draw a sword and look around in confusion. They finally accepted a mission, but were intercepted like this?
The strong man also had a gloomy face under his veil. Obviously, no one would be in a good mood if his beard was cut off midway.
What's even more outrageous is that the two of them didn't even see who came and what method they used to take the things away from them.
"This person should have been ambushing here for a long time, but ordinary people generally cannot recognize that thing. The master's medicine is just short of this last flavor. Although the ambergris has a bland taste, it can be regarded as a trace."
"Then let's go back and report to the master first."
"it is good!"
Two black shadows flashed past, coming and going silently.
As for Su Jiu, she returned to the room carrying her things and was in a particularly good mood.
Originally she didn't want to meddle in other people's business, but when the man made a move, she suddenly smelled the medicinal fragrance in the black cloth. After confirming what was inside, she decided to take action.
She just recently wanted to refine a medicine that could better reconnect broken bones. If successful, it would not be a problem to let a cripple stand up again.
Su Jiu returned to the room and opened the baggage by moonlight without lighting the candle.
Sure enough, inside the bundle was a bag of dried ambergris, wrapped in greaseproof paper, unaffected by the moisture in the well.
The corner of Su Jiu's lips curled up with a hint of joy. She took out the porcelain bottle from her arms and walked out. She sprinkled it around the house and courtyard. The medicinal powder in the porcelain bottle could eliminate the residual smell of ambergris. Carefully sail the ten thousand year ship. , Su Jiu has always understood this truth.
After doing this, Su Jiu hid the things in a secret corner of the room, then lay back on the bed and fell asleep peacefully.
After a few days like this, Su Jiu almost never had contact with others during the day. She stayed in her room and lived a leisurely life. Finally, she arrived at the Penglai Conference.
Even on such a grand day, Jie Chi still did not attend. Instead, his junior brother presided over it.
The format of the literary test was based on the scientific examination. The owner of Penglai Island set the questions. Everyone sat in a small room. After answering the questions, the monks collected the answer sheets and announced the results.
Su Jiu was forced by Wuming to memorize a lot of books. Naturally, this was not a problem for her, but the last question was: Who do you think the owner of Penglai Island is?
Su Jiu was a little speechless. Thinking that she had answered the previous questions well, Su Jiu brushed up her pen and wrote down a few words - I don't know, she must have been in a bad mood anyway.
Soon, the results of the literary test came out, and Su Jiu’s pseudonym ‘Jiujiu’ was at the top of the list.
It is posted at the door of the temple, and even men and women are clearly marked.
Those who were on the list cheered and cheered when they saw the list, while those who didn't make the list were dejected. This made everyone experience the joy of being a poor student in high school and the loneliness of not being on the list.
Su Jiu guessed that her score in the literary test should not be that high. Now there is only one possibility for this result, and that is that she answered the last question very well. Unexpectedly, even the island owner herself felt that she was sick!
It seems that the island owner is quite self-aware.
After the essay test, the place where the guests lived suddenly became quieter. Obviously, the essay test eliminated many people at once.
A few days later, with the sound of gongs and drums, the martial arts test finally began.
There are six arenas placed in the square in front of the Great Buddha Hall of Jōhōji Temple. The arenas are divided according to the draws made a few days ago. The competitions are carried out at the same time, which is simple, decisive and very efficient.
The lot Su Jiu drew happened to be on the 6th.
Under the orderly arrangement of the monks, those whose names were called lined up in their corresponding arenas.
Although a lot of people were eliminated from the literary test, I couldn't resist the large number of people who participated. At a glance, everything was filled with people.
There were even four stands set up on all sides of the ring, not far from the ring, but just out of reach of the airway.
There were people sitting in the stands, six people on one side of the stand, all wearing masks. As the referee for this martial arts test, they were to prevent anyone from making small moves and making some embarrassing moves.
Once discovered, they will be disqualified and blacklisted for three years.
Su Jiu heard the monk call her alias and stood in the No. 6 team. The order she was drawn was right in the middle, neither above nor below.
"Su'an!"
"What about..."
A lazy voice sounded, and then Su Jiu felt someone standing behind her. At the same time, a faint, familiar scent of herbs penetrated her nose.
