Rise From the Humble

  Chapter 275 Bad luck

   Candidates are checked one by one, from the dark to the rising sun.

   This kind of search is not without effect. A man in front of Zhu Ping'an was found entrained when he was searched. The method of entrainment is his quilt. Inside the quilt are densely packed with small characters, which fit perfectly with the simple and elegant black flowers on the quilt. I don’t know how many stereotyped essays have been copied, all of which are betting questions. However, it was still found out by the small officials who searched.

   When they were found out, the examinee piled up on the ground like a lightning strike, trembling all over.

   "Drag it out, send soldiers and horses to investigate, the number of shackles will be January, and deal with it strictly!"

The middle-aged supervisor waved his hand with a serious face, and then four soldiers came up, lifted the man who was piled on the ground, ignored his crying and begging for mercy, and rudely took the man away go out.

  After the entrained man was released, Zhu Ping'an stepped forward to be searched.

  Zhu Ping'an naturally had no problems, passed the search and inspection smoothly, and entered the Gongyuan.

  However, the two soldiers in charge of the inspection were a little unhappy. After recalling this scene a few days later, they could not help but take a deep breath, and looked at the sky with deep eyes:

   I just remember that it was very cold that day and we were all sweating.

  The reality of the day was that they became human food cutters. Zhu Ping'an carried a lot of food, such as preserved fruit, dried meat, cooked food, and even a handful of rolled noodles. These two soldiers used special food inspection knives to chop and chop. After cutting for a long time, their hands were sore, and they had been exercising too much. It was so cold that they were sweating.

  After passing the inspection, Zhu Ping'an entered the Gongyuan and looked for his seat according to the test card.

Compared with the Yingtian Gongyuan, the total area of ​​the Gongyuan in the capital is relatively smaller. There are rows of simple houses built in the Gongyuan in the capital. The civil structure is densely packed with hundreds of rows. Each row has a hundred numbers, and one number is a house. , according to the "Thousand Characters" "Heaven and Earth Xuanhuang" row, the so-called "Tianzi No. 1" comes from here. This hut is called the field house, also called the test number, and some are called the number room, which is based on the same idea as the cell number.

  Zhu Pingan found his own dormitory according to the test card. Zhu Ping'an was very unlucky this time, and the location he was in was the "stinky number" that everyone avoided, that is, the dormitory near the toilet.

There is also a difference between the houses here and the houses in the township examination. There is no difference in size. It is five feet long, four feet wide, and eight feet high. That is, the height allows people to stand up without breaking their head, and the width allows you to stretch out an arm. Just touch the opposite wall, and the depth is larger. this house

The difference lies in the layout of the dormitory. In this dormitory, there is a northern kang, which is used for sleeping. Although it is not very spacious, as long as the head is facing inward, the legs can always be straightened. Go outside the kang; this kang is also used as a seat for answering papers, and it feels more comfortable than Yingtian House. There is a long wooden board on the kang, which is used as a desk and a dining table. In addition, there are charcoal braziers and a few candles on the kang.

There is no door to this house, so Zhu Pingan went straight in, packed up the things, put them in place, took out the pot, added water, sprinkled some condiments, added noodles, pieces of meat, and a few slices of cabbage leaf.

   Then, use the simple stand that comes with it, set up the pot, and start cooking.

From when I was ugly and went out to wash and go out to now, Zhu Pingan hasn’t had a drop of water, and he is in a bad name. Now that he has just entered the tribute courtyard and the toilet is not used by anyone, he hasten to cook something to eat. The province’s bad name is worthy of the name. , there is no such environment.

   gurgling

   The meat porridge, cabbage and noodle soup in the small pot was gurgling, steaming and fragrant, and spread far.

  The soldiers who invigilated the examination next to them almost collapsed. After so many years of invigilating the examination, this was the first time I saw such a candidate who was assigned to a stinking number. Never seen such a fierce man before! I have never seen someone who just entered the stinking account and couldn't wait to cook something!

  The candidate who was assigned to the stinky number before, that one was not vomit, pale, and on the verge of collapse! Candidates like this who have just entered the stinking hall and can't wait to cook before the stool is warmed up, to the soldiers invigilating the examination, they are almost blinded by dog ​​eyes.

  The chief examiner, Xu Jie, accompanied by several fellow examiners, patrolled the examination room.

  When Xu Jie and the others were walking towards the stinking hall, they heard a sound of sucking and sucking.

  When Xu Jie and the others heard this burst of sound, their expressions changed.

  This is a stinky number, how can there be such a voice? ! In the past, when the invigilators came here, they could always hear the plaintive voices of candidates. Why did they have such strange voices today.

   You must know that the examination room at this time does not have any hygienic conditions. At the end of the alleyway in the No. 1 house, there is a simple small shed with a feces bucket in it for the candidates to defecate. For three days, nearby candidates are here for convenience, the stench is unpleasant, mosquitoes and flies are flying around, not to mention the exam, even the smell is enough for the candidates.

   And the skunk is close to the location of this simple toilet, and it is next door to it.

   Curious, Xu Jie and the others took two steps forward.

Then, I saw a scene that subverted their three views: a simple and honest boy who looked about fifteen, was holding a small iron pot in the stinking hall, and was eating vigorously with chopsticks. The whole person was eating very well. Xiang was so devoted that his head was sweating from eating.

   On the contrary, the soldier who invigilated the exam in front of the stinky account looked pale and almost collapsed, and it seemed that there was a shadow in his heart.

   no

   It would be nice if there were no mourners, how can you still eat so happily!

  For a while, Xu Jie remembered this young man who ate deliciously with an iron pot in the stinking account and was very devoted to it due to the strong sense of contrast.

  In the stinking house, but his face does not change, he is calm and composed, drinking as before.

   This kind of person is definitely not an ordinary person! Either a fool, or an unborn genius! Interesting, very good, I, Xu Jie, remember this person.

  Zhu Ping'an put so much effort into it. By the time he realized it, Xu Jie and the other examiners had already walked away.

  Because I got up when I was ugly, probably after two o'clock in the morning, and I was seriously deprived of sleep. Therefore, after Zhu Pingan finished eating, he simply washed the pots, bowls and chopsticks, put the things aside and put them away, and cleaned up the kang. Spread a fur mat on the kang, lie down, take a thick rabbit fur blanket as a quilt, and fall asleep beautifully.

  The soldiers invigilating the examination outside watched this scene, already speechless, and went to sleep when they were full, whether it was a stinking call, or it was broad daylight. Never seen such a candidate.

   After patrolling around, Xu Jie and other examiners, who had returned from the original road, passed by here, and immediately saw Zhu Pingan, who was sleeping under the quilt and snoring everywhere. The snoring was too loud.

  Scored in the stinking number, sleep after eating, this kind of candidates have already given up on themselves.

   Seeing this, several examiners couldn't help but shook their heads and laughed lightly. They looked at Zhu Pingan, who was sleeping high, with mocking eyes.

  Uh, it seems that this candidate belongs to the former, and I missed it. Xu Jie shook his head slightly, a little disappointed.
