Song Mu's No. A house was on the east side of the mansion, and it also had a small courtyard attached to it, which looked quite quiet.
Although only the top three students in the examination can live here, most of the ten rooms are empty. It is expected that most of the scholars have families and will not live in the government school.
Thinking that Song Mu's room might not have been occupied for a long time, Song Mu immediately rolled up his sleeves, opened the window and wooden door, and cleaned it carefully.
After Song Mu packed up his things, Kong Zong, who was also studying in the government over there, finally came over. When he saw Song Mu's room, he looked around and a wry smile appeared on his face.
"Brother Song, it seems I have to work harder."
After hearing this, Song Mu scratched his head in embarrassment. He originally asked Kong Zong to come and live in the mansion, but now his dormitory was much more crowded than Song Mu's.
But obviously Kong Zong was not a pampered person. On the contrary, after seeing the accommodation environment here in Song Mu, he even said that he would work hard to pass the exam next time and live in a first-class room.
The two of them joked for a while, then packed up and headed out together to the west side of Fu Xue. There is a canteen built in Fu Xue over there, which provides free daily meals to Fu Xue students.
However, since they are provided free of charge, these meals can only be said to be filling, not even remotely delicious.
This is still a tradition left by the previous Master Tixue. Fan Tixue also felt that it was very good and had a spurring effect on the students of Fu Xue, so it was retained.
It was now noon. Song Mu and Kong Zong were walking and chatting, and soon they met Xiao Xie from before.
The other party was coming out of the restaurant at the moment, with bulging cheeks and walking out. When he saw Song Mu coming over, he chewed and swallowed quickly, and then waved to say hello.
"Senior Brother Song."
"Thank you, junior brother, have you had your meal now?"
Seeing this, Song Mu asked, and Junior Brother Xie nodded and said, "I spent some time doing chores today. I haven't finished my homework yet. I have to take exams this afternoon, so time is a bit tight."
With that said, Xie Jiaguo handed over his hand and left in a hurry. Song Mu and Kong Zong looked at each other with a bit of emotion on their faces at this moment.
"Sure enough, Fu Xue is extraordinary. Even Confucian scholars are so advanced."
Kong Zong sighed with emotion, and Song Mu also nodded.
"So we must encourage ourselves and never fall behind others."
The two people stepped into the school, and someone brought them food. They had no choice here. The students would eat whatever the school arranged for that day.
Seeing a bowl of vegetable and meat porridge, a small bowl of green vegetables, and a bowl of brown rice on the table, the two of them were stunned again.
"As everyone said, the food in the restaurant is the dullest. I heard that the restaurant only prepares good meals on hunting days."
Kong Zong looked at the food in front of him and said, then he and Song Mu picked up the bowls and chopsticks and started eating.
"But when it comes to hunting, it seems like it happens once every few days."
Kong Zong said this, and Song Mu also stopped his chopsticks and asked.
"Really? I heard that this hunting trip is always vigorous and vigorous, and it seems that there is also a performance evaluation. I wonder what is going on?"
After listening to Song Mu's question, Kong Zong said with great interest.
"I heard something from my father. After two months of studying martial arts, a scholar will go hunting. At first, he just hunts some ordinary wild beasts. After half a year, it seems that he will start to take the test to fight against monsters."
"However, it seems that the way scholars are taught in schools in various places is slightly different, but they are not as cruel as the army over there. The scholars will go to the battlefield a week after joining the army. They will first cut off the ears of animals, and then the exam will start in January. I heard that they will face the monster directly.
Beast fight.”
Song Mu also nodded after hearing this. After all, scholars are the true basic combat force of the human race. Everyone needs to grow up quickly. The situation in the comfortable place of Wen Dynasty may be a bit faster, but in the frontier army, that is
Always be prepared to work hard.
This is why some frustrated scholars choose to join the frontier army, where the daily experience and growth is much higher than studying in a comfortable place.
However, high returns also mean high risks, and the excessively high battle fatality rate once caused a shortage of talents in the frontier army. Later, the Holy Spirit issued a grace order to benefit the deceased, and everything gradually improved.
Kong Zong drank the porridge from the bowl and murmured at the same time.
"If I don't make any progress in the future, my father also said that he would send me to the frontier army for some training."
Song Mu didn't say anything at the moment, he just lowered his head and ate.
It is still unknown whether this scholar's practice is good or bad. If he is still holding back, he might take the risk to do this.
Not long after, people came to eat in the restaurant one after another, but at this time Song Mu and Kong Zong suddenly heard a loud noise.
A dozen young people were walking in at the door of the restaurant.
Each of them is a scholar. They are all wearing light robes and leather armor. They are also carrying bows and arrows. They are chatting with each other and find two tables in the restaurant to sit down and eat.
Kong Zong reached out and poked Song Mu, looked at those people and said to Song Mu.
"They should be scholars who have just finished taking archery classes. Judging from their strength, they are probably at least in the second grade, right?"
Song Mu also nodded, but at this moment his eyes were looking at one of the young men with a narrow face and a big nose. The man had a strong figure and his literary power was surging at this moment.
Even though he was three tables away, Song Mu could feel the energy in the other party.
This person may already have the strength of a first-class scholar.
Song Mu glanced at it lightly, and then continued to eat with his head down, while Kong Zong looked at it with interest, and his face was even more envious at this moment.
"I thought that in some time, we could be like this, that scene, hehe."
Kong Zong said something happily, but suddenly he found that several people at the table were talking about something, and then one of them looked towards him.
The person who looked over was a strong man with a tall nose, a narrow face, and a pair of piercing eyes looking at him.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Kong Zong felt shocked for no reason, and was about to lower his head to eat, but felt that this style was unbecoming of a scholar, so he raised his head and raised his chest.
But when he glanced again, he saw the man coming this way.
"Brother Song..."
Kong Zong secretly called Song Mu. After Song Mu drank the last bit of vegetable porridge in the bowl, he raised his head and looked over. When he saw the powerful scholar coming over just now, he put down his bowl and chopsticks and straightened his back to look at him.
.
When Kong Zong saw Song Mu acting like this, he seemed to have some confidence in his heart. He also straightened his back and stared at Song Mu.
The man had already walked over at this time. He was so tall that he could almost block the sun. His eyes scanned Song Mu's body for a while, and then he raised his hand and said.
"I am Ge Long, a scholar of the 23rd year of Chongwen."
The other party's voice was unexpectedly gentle.
After hearing this, Song Mu naturally stood up and respectfully raised his hands and said.
"I am Song Mu, a scholar of the 27th year of Chongwen."
"Ge knows that you are the leader of this trial." Ge Long's voice came slowly.
Song Mu nodded, and a smile appeared on the other person's face. He was looking at Song Mu constantly, and then suddenly said.
"If I guess correctly, Brother Song should be a first-class scholar now, right?"
"Senior Brother Ge is so complimentary, just call me Junior Brother."
Song Mu responded quickly and said calmly: "It is true that as Senior Brother Ge said, Song was lucky enough to get into the first class."
When he said this, Song Mu could clearly feel the atmosphere around him suddenly stagnant, and those who were eating all looked over.
Several of Ge Long's friends who were traveling with him were also stunned on the spot with bowls in their hands, with somewhat surprised expressions on their faces.
"You just entered the realm of scholar and you are a first-class person?"
"Senior Brother Ge Long only reached the first-class level in four years. Isn't this young man too powerful?"
"This young man is incredible. He is a first-class scholar. If everything goes well, won't he have to be a scholar in three years?"
Several young scholars next to him talked for a while, with some surprises in their expressions.
And Ge Long's eyes suddenly flashed with light, and his aura suddenly changed.
"Okay, he is indeed a talented young man, Junior Brother Song. I haven't seen someone as talented as you for a long time."
"I'll ask you to discuss some literary, Taoist and military strategies someday. Junior Brother Song, don't refuse."
