Immortal Cultivation Is So Scientific
Chapter 18: autumn
Li Shiming rode an ordinary carriage with the driver and the servant Mo Yan in the carriage's carriage. The piano player in the carriage kept checking the items in the test basket, for fear that there was one missing item.
He didn't want to bring the piano with him, but the piano had to come no matter what.
Considering that Siqin had prepared a lot of things for Qiu Wei, he still brought her with him.
A number of Fuzhong guards followed not far behind the carriage, which was a must for Li Shiming to go out.
There were several major events in Nanling Mansion, which did not affect the excitement today.
There are people everywhere on the road. In addition to the candidates who participated in the autumn festival and their families, there are many people watching.
There are also a lot of yamen and government soldiers on the streets, this is to prevent accidents.
"Master, the Gongyuan is here!" Mo Yan reminded outside the carriage.
"Siqin, stay in the car and don't get out!" Li Shiming instructed while holding down the Siqin who wanted to get out of the car.
At this time, the people outside the Gongyuan were crowded with people, and there were even children on the low walls and trees.
A lot of people bring their children here just to get some culture, so that the children can have the opportunity to participate in the autumn festival like these talents.
In the eyes of ordinary people, the scholars who can participate in the autumn festival are equal to the stars of Wenqu.
This is also normal. Every scholar here is the top few in the world, and they are placed in the local Wenqu stars.
And if the autumn season is over, then you can no longer be called a scholar, you need to be called Master Juren and have the qualifications to be an official.
Li Shiming carried the test basket to the gate of the Gongyuan. Several acquaintances looked at each other and didn't say hello.
The soldiers searched at the entrance of Gongyuan were not soldiers from Nanling Mansion, but soldiers transferred from other places.
The soldiers did not know Li Shiming, so the body search was the same as other candidates.
Daxia attaches great importance to scientific examinations, and any act of daring to cheat in scientific examinations is a capital offense, and because of the importance of scientific examinations, Daxia has adopted a variety of methods to prevent cheating.
Even in the autumn season of Nanling Mansion, Li Shiming could not enjoy the preferential treatment of the prefect.
Li Shiming looked at Siqin's carefully prepared dessert, which was crushed by soldiers. Fortunately, Siqin couldn't see it, or else he would be sad again.
At the end of the search, a soldier took him to the Gongyuan. His luck was not bad. Although it was not the best position in the row of houses, it was not bad enough to be next to the dry toilet.
He took out the pen and ink, inkstone, and paperweight from the test basket, and took a little water to adjust the ink.
Due to the existence of the computer room, he is equivalent to putting all the books in the Fuzhong study in his head, and he has the computing and analysis capabilities of the large-scale server IBMz15, as well as many excellent articles in the history of the past life.
Furthermore, because his strength has reached the first level of qi refining, and the nourishment of spiritual qi has greatly improved his memory, analysis, calculation and other abilities, he is not worried about Qiu Wei at all.
On the first day, the questions were posted, and the test was the scriptures.
Although he has studied the Four Books and Five Classics, he still observes the ancient exams with the feeling of a bystander.
Only when he really took the Autumn Examination did he realize how difficult it was.
Of course, this difficulty is not for him now, but for the students in the previous life.
The simplest way to write the scriptures is to select any paragraph from the four books and five scriptures and 170,000 words to fill in the blanks.
This requires the complete memorization of the Four Books and Five Classics, in order to be able to cope with the examination of the scriptures and Moyi.
Li Shiming swept the question once, and the answer appeared in his mind. He didn't even need to use the large server IBMz15.
He only needs to pay attention to writing the words clearly and not to smear the test paper.
It took more than half an hour to finish writing the title in one stroke.
He found that he was answering too fast, and the entire fill-in-the-blank paper was the content of a day's exam.
He heard the wailing of the candidates, followed by the warning of the soldiers.
At night, lanterns were hung up one by one, and all the candidates in the hall also lit oil lamps.
Li Shiming sat down on the simple wooden bed, took the Spirit Gathering Plate out of the computer room and sat under him, and began to practice the 'Five Elements Breathing Technique'.
Even Qiu Wei couldn't interrupt his cultivation.
There is no way to do this. The four luminous stones on the Spirit Gathering Plate are already very dim, and they really can't support it for long.
It is a huge waste to waste any cultivation opportunity.
Besides, in the hall, no one will disturb the candidates unless it is found that the candidates are obviously cheating.
The spiritual energy poured into the body, and entered the spiritual energy vortex along the opened spiritual veins.
It seems to have reached a limit, the aura vortex shrank a bit, and then expanded in a circle.
There was an inexplicable wind in the entire Gongyuan, and the lanterns were constantly shaking. The soldiers quickly checked the situation.
After some inspections, the soldiers found nothing unusual, but regarded it as an accident caused by the weather.
Li Shiming opened his eyes, a light flashed in his eyes, and then disappeared.
"Finally the second level of qi refining!" He secretly said with joy in his heart.
After the second level of Qi refining, he can try to learn spells, which is considered to have truly stepped into the threshold of immortal cultivation.
He put the Gathering Disk into the computer room without wasting any time.
He could see that the Spirit Gathering Pan could last for three more days at most, after which he would not have such good cultivation conditions.
As for the glowing stones in the Spirit Gathering Plate, he didn't find out where they were in Nanling Mansion.
Besides, even with the luminous stone, he didn't have a way to activate the Spirit Gathering Disk.
He lay on the plank bed and spent his first night in the number quarters.
The next day I took the test of Classics and Yi, and the questions were relatively biased. Only from the sighs that came from the other houses, I knew how difficult the question was this time.
However, no matter how biased it is, one cannot escape from the Li family's selection of classics and meanings. The four books and five classics of 170,000 words have been expanded to more than six million words by the Li family after so many years, which shows the depth of their research on classics and meanings.
Almost every paragraph has a corresponding meaning, no matter how you test it, it can't go beyond the scope of the Four Books and Five Classics.
On the third day, the exam is on strategy theory, which looks at the level of literature and practical research on the meaning of classics.
Li Shiming didn't write it himself. Based on his knowledge of the examiner, he selected a policy article that matched the examiner's taste and was excellent from the historical database of the large server IBMz15.
This time, instead of writing immediately, he waited an hour before writing.
In the afternoon, the three-day autumn season finally came to an end.
Siqin stood on the carriage, staring at the gate of Gongyuan.
A number of exhausted candidates walked out of the gate, and the three-day exam almost consumed every ounce of their energy.
Some candidates even left the Gongyuan with the help of soldiers.
At the end of the autumn season in the past years, some candidates will be seriously ill, and some candidates may even be sick because of it.
"Young master is out!" Mo Yan exclaimed in surprise.
Needless to say, just look at the youngest candidate who came out of the gate, and he is the only candidate in high spirits, who can be recognized by just one glance among the candidates.
Siqin stood on the carriage and waved his hand vigorously, indicating that she was here.
