The Sage of Confucianism and Taoism

The stubborn Wu Zui jumped with all his strength, and the bell under the horse's head kept ringing.

Fang Yun had no intention of falling down, and soon Wu Hao's movements became a little slow. Fang Yun immediately noticed Wu Hao's decline and immediately unleashed his bravery.

The powerful Wen Dan coercion emanated from Fang Yun's Wen Palace. Wu Zui screamed in horror, stopped jumping around, then lowered his head and stood there honestly, exhaling from his nostrils.

Those who originally wanted to surpass Fang Yun with his riding skills suddenly realized that they had forgotten the fact that Fang Yun was in the second realm of literary and bravery. As long as he reaches the second level of literary boldness and cooperates with his riding skills, it is far easier to tame Wu Zui than others. However, no one present, whether it is a scholar or a Jinshi, can reach the second level of literary boldness. Even those who have reached the first level of literary boldness are very few.

The young Duke snorted coldly and said: "Wei Yu, let's go, show your strength at the second level of Qin Dao in the 'Tanbo Pavilion', surpass him in one fell swoop, and then enter the fifth pavilion first!"

"Don't worry, I am a person who has been admitted to the upper house after all. If I don't have outstanding abilities in the four arts of piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, I won't be able to break into the fifth pavilion!"

"We can't let him fall too far behind. Let's tame Wu Zhui quickly!"

Qiao Juze glanced at Fang Yun and then at Wei Yu, with a hint of worry in his eyes.

Fang Yun stretched out his hand to touch Wu Zui Ma's neck. Wu Zui immediately turned his head and meekly stretched out his tongue to lick Fang Yun's hand.

"Drive!" Fang Yun shook the reins and picked up the horse's belly. Wu Zui immediately raised his head high and walked forward with elegant steps, the bell under his neck kept ringing softly.

After passing the horse training farm, there is a flat road. Next to the road is a wooden sign with the three words "Ming He Luan" written in black and white on it. There is also a simple music score below the three words.

"He" and "Luan" are both bells on ancient chariots. The "He" and "Luan" require the driver to make the bells harmonious when the chariot is moving. However, the "Ming and Luan" of Yuma Pavilion are more demanding and must be made. The bell under the horse's neck rang into a simple song.

And the score that everyone encounters every time is different.

Fang Yun took a closer look and found that this piece of music was adapted from a well-known piano piece called "Spring". It was much simpler than the original piece, but it was not easy for Ma Ling to play it even with a simple piece of music.

Fang Yun did not ride on the horse immediately. He first sat on the saddle and thought. When the next person was about to tame Wu Zhui, he softly shouted "drive" and used military riding skills to control Wu Zhui's pace.

Various aspects such as the speed and weight of the Wuzui's hooves, the length of the stride and the movement of the head affect the ringing. However, under the control of Fang Yun, the Wuzui is like a dancer among horses, moving in a dazzling way. The pace is forward, sometimes fast and sometimes slow, sometimes rushing forward and sometimes stopping suddenly, and sometimes even raising the head suddenly.

If you close your eyes, what sounds in your ears is a simple song "Spring" composed of bells and horse hooves. It is light and cheerful, full of the breath of spring.

If you open your eyes and look, you will find that the black horse seems to be addicted to the sound of the bell, and the horse's face is full of joy.

The Jinshi who had just tamed Wu Zhui sat on the horse and stared blankly at Fang Yun. He had seen the horse bell music before, but the horse's hooves entering the music only existed in legends. Only then did he realize that Fang Yun's riding skills must have been learned from famous masters. Even the disciples of the Holy Family can't do it. This is the expertise of the disciples of the Kong Saint Family and the Confucius Saint Family.

"It's good to have friends all over the world. You can even learn the secret method of Lingyan Pavilion, which is enviable." The Jinshi sighed softly.

Not long after, Fang Yun walked to the end of the road playing bell music.

The road ahead is full of small ditches and rivers, and the road on the edge of the ditch and river is very narrow, only allowing one horse to move forward. If you are not careful, you may fall into the river or ditch.

There is also a plaque on the side. The plaque clearly states that horses are not allowed to cross the ditch and must walk along the only road.

This is "chasing the water song", walking along the twists and turns of the gully and water without letting the horse step on the water.

Fang Yun didn't even think about it this time. He slapped Wu Hao's butt and made Wu Hao start to trot, and then controlled the horse to move forward along the only road.

The people behind him were astonished that they had lived in the Horse Pavilion for so many years, and no one but Fang Yun dared to let the horse trot during the "Zhu Shui Song".

"It's so miraculous, I'm afraid it's at least eight."

"Nine chips are also possible."

"Two pavilions report his chips. After passing this second pavilion, we can see his chips."

"This is a true genius. He knows everything about poetry, classics, meanings, and policies. He even can ride and shoot far better than me. It is rare in the world."

At the edge of the winding ditch and river, Fang Yun rode forward, controlling every step perfectly.

The road was wide at first, and then became thinner, but his speed did not slow down at all, and Wu Zhui's every step was under his control.

Not long after, Fang Yun passed the third level of Yuma Pavilion, Zhushuiqu, with an absolute advantage.

Fang Yun sat on the horse, straightened his waist and looked forward. He saw that there were wide ditches on the road ahead, there were small soil bags, and there were trees. One side of all the trees was blocked by thorns, and they had to keep walking around. to pass.

There are three gates on this road, each gate is narrower than the other. The last gate can barely accommodate a horse, and it will get stuck if you are not careful.

This level is called "Guojunbiao", and it is several times more difficult than before, because it could be passed slowly before, but in this fourth level, you must use enough speed to let the horse cross the wide ditch and the earth bag. A slightly slower speed will not work. The man fell on his back and his horse fell over.

Fang Yun imprinted all the terrain and obstacles ahead in his mind, thought for a while, and then rode forward.

During the running process, Fang Yun gradually controlled the speed of the black horse, fast or slow, and soon adjusted it to a moderate speed, not too slow to cross the obstacles, nor too fast to hit the narrow gate.

This time, almost no one looked at him, because everyone else was concentrating on walking Mingheluan or Zhushuiqu. From time to time, someone had to go back and walk again because of the ringing of the bell, and occasionally someone accidentally fell into the ditch.

There was chaos in the Imperial Horse Pavilion.

Fang Yun rode away, leaving all the chaos behind, and only those Jinshi barely managed to avoid being left too far behind by him.

Except for Ji Zhibai, the other eight Jinshi in the upper house were all there, but none of them could compete with Fang Yun.

"It's good that Ji Zhibai is here..." The little Duke sighed softly.

Finally, Fang Yun successfully passed the narrow gate and completed the fourth level of passing the Junbiao.

There were complicated bends ahead. Fang Yun took a closer look and found that it was as described in the book. At first glance, it looked like a series of twisting vines, which was very strange. This was the "Wu Jiaoqu" of the fifth level.

The so-called Wujiaoqu is to allow the chariot to run smoothly on a complex and intersecting road, just like a graceful dance, but the warhorse can easily do Wujiaoqu which is difficult for the chariot to do, so this fifth level has become a test of speed and curves.

Fang Yun did not hesitate this time, and he pulled the black horse to speed up.

Wei Yu saw Fang Yun on Wujiaoqu and smiled coldly. Wujiaoqu seems simple, but in fact, because of the different curvature and width of the curve, it is easy to lose control once accelerating, but if you are slow, you will be overtaken. Without years of experience and many times in Lingyan Pavilion, it is impossible to pass this Wujiaoqu quickly.

This Wujiaoqu can be said to be the turning point of Yuma Pavilion, where people often charge here and come from behind.

Wei Yu quickly passed Zhushuiqu, and when he was about to step onto the obstacle-filled Guojunbiao, he glanced at Fang Yun casually and stayed where he was.

Fang Yun's speed was faster than any other Wujiaoqu he had ever done! Fang Yun's skills in curves were also far better than his!

"This bastard!" Wei Yu was holding back his anger, and his blood was boiling, but he was a Jinshi after all. Then, his literary courage was shaken, and the negative emotions in his heart gradually disappeared. Finally, he looked at Fang Yun and took a serious look at Junbiao.

Fang Yun had escaped from the barbarian's magic and bows and arrows many times in the Shushan environment. The most dangerous time was the spears thrown continuously by the demon king, which was countless times more dangerous than now.

Fang Yun finally showed a smile on his face. Since he started training horses, he could not exert the speed of war horses, but in this Wujiaoqu, he could exert the speed of war horses to near the limit, and only slowed down slightly when turning.

Only in this way can you appreciate the joy of galloping horses.

Soon, Fang Yun passed the test of the bend, passed Wujiaoqu, and completed the fifth level of the Imperial Horse Pavilion.

At this moment, the fastest person behind had not passed half of the fourth level.

The face of the little Duke of the State was always gloomy. Before, Fang Yun could only leave the second person behind by one level, but now Fang Yun could leave people behind by one and a half levels. This seemingly small half level is the gap between the strongest in human history and the strongest in Jingguo!

The sixth level, Zhuqinzuo.

There is not much difference between Zhuqinzuo in the chariot and Zhuqinzuo in the Yuma Pavilion. Both of them drive the beasts to the left to create better hunting conditions and finally hunt them.

The last level of the Yuma Pavilion is a combination of hunting and horse riding. Only by getting the best results here can you get the highest number of chips in the Yuma Pavilion.

Fang Yun's eyes lit up slightly. This is a manifestation of the surge of talent in his body. Yuma Pavilion has ten chips, and Zhuqinzuo alone has four chips!

There is also a bow and arrow rack at the edge of the Zhuqinzuo field. Fang Yun also took a longbow this time, but only took ten heavy cone arrows.

The hunting ground of Zhuqinzuo is a grassland with extremely high weeds. Countless beasts are lurking in it, and wild geese and goshawks are flying in the sky.

In this Zhuqinzuo hunting ground, each person can only shoot ten arrows. If you want to get four chips, you must not only pass the hunting ground as soon as possible, but also shoot ten lions or goshawks.

As for wild beasts such as rabbits, deer, wild geese or wolves, although they can also be shot, the number of chips is very low.

So when they saw Fang Yun enter the hunting ground first, many Jinshi and Juren behind him sighed, because there were few lions and goshawks in the first place, and Fang Yun's riding and archery skills had already shown that once Fang Yun entered the hunting ground first, he would definitely only shoot lions or goshawks.

This time, even Xiao Guogong and Wei Yu knew that Fang Yun could pass smoothly.

As expected, Fang Yun did not have any pride or carelessness this time, and shot six lions and three goshawks with real riding and archery skills. In the process, Fang Yun's speed did not decrease, and the black horse passed through Zhuqin Zuo's hunting ground at almost full speed.

"At least nine and a half."

"No, it must be ten!"

The young Duke sneered, "You forgot an important thing! Fang Yun actually spent his talent in Zhuqin Zuozhong, and this is only the second pavilion! If he continues to spend, even if he has the ability of the seventh pavilion, he will not be able to pass the fifth pavilion because of exhaustion of talent! Which of the four pavilions of music, chess, calligraphy and painting does not consume a lot of talent? I admit that he had a chance to win, but he missed it because he was too stupid!"
