Chapter 311 Qiu Wei(1/2)

 The sky is bright and clear.

The candidates were escorted by the imperial army to the examination center.

"This year's autumn is too surprising."

"Yes, yes, this is a special poetry test, and the test center is located outside the city. It is really rare."

Many candidates talked a lot and didn't understand.

With a sense of trepidation, I walked all the way to Xiaotao Town.

Those who arrived before them, in addition to the Guardsmen and the three thousand imperial troops, were the group of examiners who were presiding over the poetry examination.

Among them, three Hanlin Academy bachelors became the examiners of this poetry examination.

Most of the remaining examiners are dispatched by officials from various ministries or departments.

The sky in Xiaotao Town is blue and cloudless.

Some of the peach blossoms in the town have withered.

After a few days of rest, Xiaotao Town has returned to its former peaceful state.

After the candidates arrived, they saw the fertile farmland, new homes, and the peaceful and elegant scenery of the town.

"Fellow test takers!"

"This is a poem test specially designed by the emperor. You can come to the town to have a look."

"If you have a good poetic talent, you can go outside the town and submit your papers on the spot."

The examiner announces the examination rules to all candidates.

Just like a general poetry competition, candidates who enter Xiaotao Town are equivalent to participating in a poetry competition.

Everything you see and think about can be a poem.

And if you have a good work, you can go to the calligraphy and ink examination center outside the town, write the poem on the spot, and hand it over to the three examiners.

"It lasts for one day and ends at sunset."

Following the examiner's order, the guard at the gate of Xiaotao Town opened the gate and let many candidates into the town.

Cao Su is the escort for this poetry test.

No wonder it has always been mysterious, it turned out that Xiaotao Town was to be used as a poetry examination venue.

Therefore, the news has not spread much, and maybe only people at the deputy governor level know about it.

"Even if someone knew the test questions about poetry in advance, if they didn't have the talent, they wouldn't be able to write it."

"The more you can go to the scene and experience it personally, the better you can write poetry."

Cao Su and his three men occupied a high point in Xiaotao Town, overlooking the entire Xiaotao Town.

As the Qiuwei exam officially begins, a large number of candidates have entered Xiaotao Town.

Although the peach blossoms in Xiaotao Town have withered a lot, you can still see many peach trees blooming in the rustling autumn wind. The pink color complements the blue sky, and the colors are very vivid.

"No wonder we are asked to investigate all evil spirits in advance."

"These studies are very precious. They are the pillars of the future empire. There can be no mistakes." Qiu Bai sarcastically expressed the dissatisfaction of the vulgar martial artist.

If you work too much, you will never be happy.

Especially working for literati.

Scholars and warriors have always looked down upon each other.

The Qianyuan Empire relied on military force to establish the country and used civilized rule to rule the world. There has never been a definite conclusion as to whether force or civilized rule was more important.

To say they are equally important is just a lie.

Almost every emperor who came to power had his own focus.

Like today's emperor, when he was young, he focused more on force, including General Yang Ming, Right General Qin Hu and others, all of whom were military attachés who were promoted when the emperor was young.

But when the emperor reached a certain age, he seemed to start paying attention to civil affairs again.

This year, special emphasis was placed on the Autumn Examination. Not only were the Imperial Guards mobilized, but Enke was also specially appointed, and the Guards Department was ordered to complete patrol and security tasks in advance.

"I can't write poetry."

Qiu Bai could be regarded as a prodigal son from the capital of Shendu who had been in romantic circles for a long time, but he actually said that he couldn't write poetry.

Cao Su declined to comment.

He Shan shook his head and said: "The Poetry Examination is just one of the exams. Special Enke exams like this may not be counted in the major exams in the future."

He Shan seemed to have some understanding of Qiu Wei.

"If it's just the guard, the three of you will be enough. Why did you call me over?"

Zhou Wei held the "Yi Ming Sword" in her arms and leaned against a high pillar. She closed her eyes and adjusted her breath, feeling the sword energy of the new sword.

The sword energy of Yiming Sword is purer and greater than Zhou Wei imagined.

This magic weapon is truly extraordinary.

Cao Su was not good at using swords, otherwise he would not have given the sword to Zhou Wei.

Of course, Cao Su also hopes that Zhou Wei will be stronger. Now Zhou Wei is his top thug and a noble cultivator, which is very rare.

"I'm worried that something might happen. There's something evil going on in Xiaotao Town, and I've reported it a long time ago."

"There are even evil spirits. Maybe there is something unclean in this place. In order to protect most of the scholars who have not yet developed awe-inspiring righteousness, it is very reasonable to send us warriors in the realm of strength to guard."

Cao Su saw some candidates walking to the center of the town.

The place where they last fought against the evil ghost was getting closer and closer.

After a war, there are always some traces that have not been completely cleaned.

The candidate who walked the fastest saw that in some unnoticed corners of the prosperous and stable Xiaotao Town, there was dust, filth, black burnt marks, and traces of dead people who had not yet been eliminated.

smell.

He was suddenly startled and stopped.

"The world is in turmoil. How can there be 'peach blossoms blooming ten miles away' and 'the scene of peaceful Fuding'? They are all deceptive and false, and the truth is not enough for the world to know."

He looked up and happened to see the guard Si Baihu who had been watching him on the top of the tall building.

Cao Su saw him. He was a slender young man who walked to the center of the town carrying a suitcase and cage. His eyes had a clarity that could see through everything in the world.

"A fourth-grade martial artist, so young?"

The scholar was shocked. He had special eyes and could see through all illusions.

No matter whether it is a person or a scene, nothing can be hidden from his eyes.

He saw that Bai Hu, a young man who was not yet twenty years old, had actually reached the fourth level of cultivation.

Although the scholar does not practice martial arts, he still has some understanding of martial arts. A fourth-level warrior before the age of 20, this person may have achieved unparalleled status in the world.

"interesting."

Cao Su smiled at him.

There are still some powerful characters among these scholars.

He became somewhat interested and began to observe carefully.

At this moment, a familiar voice suddenly came to his ears.

This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Zhou Wei, who was leaning against the pillar next to her, moved her brows, opened her eyes, and looked at Cao Su suspiciously.

"Someone looking for you?"

Cao Su did not deny it either: "An old friend is on duty now, so it is inconvenient to see her."

"What's the inconvenience? Sir, you can go ahead and we'll help you guard this place to make sure nothing goes wrong." Qiu Bai heard the conversation between the two and took the initiative to intervene.

Cao Su would definitely not do such a risky thing.

If something happens in the future, he will have to take the blame.

He directly rejected Qiu Bai's kindness: "No, stop being distracted and watch carefully. Don't make any mistakes today in Qiuwei."

Seeing Cao Su's serious expression, Qiu Bai and He Shan stopped joking and immediately looked serious.

After the two of them went to other places to guard, Cao Su stepped out from the tall building, jumped directly to the top of a house, and stood on top to serve as a guard and invigilate the exam.

.......

Standing on the roof.

A figure appeared under the roof.

"Okay, Xuanji, the Guards Department and the Forbidden Army have completely surrounded Xiaotao Town. How can you get in?"

Cao Su stood on the roof, his face was troubled, his lips moved slightly, and he transmitted the sound into the room and sent a message to the people in the room below.

The person hiding in the back room is Ouyang Xuanji, whom she has not seen for a long time.
