Nightfall Chapter 77: “Academic Discussion” in Twilight


Chapter 77 "Academic Discussion" in the Twilight

The twilight is already thick, and the golden light has turned the mountain behind the academy into a very high altar. There seems to be a warmth between the bluestones on the stone flat, urging people to return, but it has The candidates who knew the results of the admission test did not leave. They gathered around the corner of Shiping, looking at the extremely ordinary-looking young candidate, occasionally paying attention to the little maid beside him, turning their heads and talking in a low voice from time to time.

The eyes of the examinees are very complicated. They are confused and shocked. Some examinees can pass the first three subjects in the admission test, surpassing the third son of Nanjin Xie, and no one has heard of it beforehand. An unknown person. It’s nothing more than the bow and horse skills of the two subjects. The young candidate was recommended by the military or honed in the frontier grassland. However, his mathematics is also the first class. You must know Xie Chengyun, Zhong Dajun, Wang Ying, the three candidates with high hopes, only passed the first class in this subject.

The quick-talking examinee couldn't help but raised his doubts, and immediately got a response from some people. Situ Yilan sorted out the front robe that had been ruffled by him before, and frowned at Ning Que and said: " How did you take the math test?"

This sentence was filled with doubts, and his tone was a bit tough and uncomfortable. Ning Que was a little unhappy when he heard it, but looking at the girl's expression, he was sure that the other party was not malicious, but the typical accident The news dazzled his head and behaved confusedly, so he opened his hands and smiled innocently without answering.

This year, the Military Ministry selected more than 70 candidates for candidates. Many people in Chang'an were not so happy. At this time, Ning Que overwhelmed most of the limelight. Seeing that he did not answer, those Chang'an The boys and girls in the city started to argue about this because of Situ Yilan's question.

As a candidate for the military department, I actually grabbed the first place in the three subjects. Those candidates from the frontier army village and major camps of the Datang Empire certainly have a sense of glory, but their age is on average older than other candidates. Some, so he acted calmly and spoke calmly. Although his heart was facing Ning Que, he did not rush out to say anything at this time.

There is a young man from Chang'an who can't stand it anymore.

Xi Youxian shook his fan and walked to Ning Que, stretched out his hand to climb his shoulders, stared at the candidates, and said, "What's wrong? Ning Que is my friend, you know him Who is it? People are the ones who go to the red sleeves to drink flowers and wine and make girls do not have to spend money! Is there anything he can't do in this world?"

Speaking of the young people in Chang'an City, the most effective thing is not to be bigger than their father’s official, who earns more money. For an open and active society like Datang, Social status and wealth accumulation will change drastically at any time, and it seems too vulgar and tasteless. They value personal talent, reputation and strength, and who is the best in Chang'an.

Of course, if you want to mix in the city of Chang'an, you can’t completely separate from the role of family background, but there are always places that are not very afraid of family background, such as red sleeve tricks, such as the cafeteria of various ministries, so Who can wander across these places has become a place to compete with each other.

Xi Youxian said that Ning Que didn't have to spend money to drink flowers and wine in Red Sleeve Trick so that the girl didn't have to spend money. It was not a humiliation, but really cheering for him and helping him gain fame. Sure enough, hearing Ning Que's red sleeve trick that no one dared to provoke no one dared to hit the white strip, the expressions of the young men and women in Chang'an suddenly changed, and when they looked at Ning Que, they felt a little respectful.

Not everyone will be stunned by Yu Yuxian’s shouting. For example, Sangsang raised her little black face, frowned thick eyebrows, stared at the shaking hand of Master Yu resting on the young master’s shoulder, listening He said how the young master went to the brothel, his emotions were not too high, and Situ Yilan's eyes looked a little strange at Ning Que.

"I'm still not convinced. The math test is just the big question. Right is right, wrong is wrong. The master drank a few pots of wine and cut a few kilos of plums. There can be no answers. Why? You are the top one, but the third son Xie is only the top one?"

Situ Yilan held Jin Wucai's little hand and shouted, very unwilling.

She is not a stubborn and unreasonable role in normal days, but she knows that her female partner Jin Wucai has some admiration for the third son of the Southern Jin Dynasty. At this time, the three sons are all covered by Ning Que, and the expression of Wu Cai is a little gloomy , She couldn't help asking a few more questions, besides, there was another more important reason that she probably didn't even realize.

In the imperial examination room, she was thrown to the ground by the big dark horse, and she was almost trampled on her face. As the daughter of General Yunhui, she couldn't even handle a horse. It can be said that she was embarrassed to the extreme. Immediately after that, Ning Que tame the **** horse so easily, and even ran out of Yu Keli's only first-class results, which really made her very incomprehensible, and this number of first-class results made her unable to understand. Unable to understand nature is hard to reconcile.

At this moment, an old voice suddenly rang from the crowd.

"Because he was the first person to hand in papers in the math test. For such an idiotic question, the guy who can’t answer is not as good as an idiot. Then I have to look at the speed of the paper. I reviewed the cinnabar of the paper. He answered it before it melted, so he is the top one... This classmate, please let me."

An old woman wearing a blue cloth coat with a bamboo broom in her hand, she did not know when she appeared at a corner of Shiping, squatting, and slowly sweeping away the dust from the feet of the crowd. People also walked slowly. Get out.

Looking at the back of the old woman who disappeared in the depths of the college, the candidates were speechless. In fact, in this math test, at least four-fifths of the people failed to answer, but the old woman said it was a question that an idiot could answer. Someone couldn’t help but said angrily: “She thought she was Who is it?"

A famous teacher outside the crowd replied coldly: "She is the only female honorary professor in the college. Those of you who are admitted to the college will have all the mathematics in the hands of her elderly in the next few years."

"Is this... the second professor?" Ning Que looked at the old woman who was squatting in the distance, and forced a smile in his heart.

Xie Chengyun, the third son of the Southern Jin Dynasty, is completely calm at this time. Although he also has a young and vigorous side, after all, he is still the first in the total score of admission test today, and his goals are not exactly the same as those of ordinary candidates. The horizons are not exactly the same. What he values ​​more is how to enter the second floor of the academy. The young candidate in front of him should be an ordinary person, so arguing with the other party on these matters is very meaningless.

On the contrary, after hearing the old woman’s words, he knew that Ning Que had obtained the answer in such a short time. He couldn’t help but admire him secretly, and asked seriously: "The mathematics question, I use Exhaustive method, and then find the infinite number, and finally want to understand the truth, I don’t know this..."

Situ Yilan approached his ear and reported Ning Que's name. Xie Chengyun nodded his head to thank, and looked at Ning Que and continued, "I don't know how Brother Ning calculated it? Is it so fast because of other algorithms?"

"If you can see that it is an infinite number at a glance, why bother to exhaustively? If you want to say the last answer, I actually don't bother to push it further. It is almost the number that is written up."

Ning Que's answer is quite similar to that of a gentleman, which seems extremely irresponsible, but in fact he is not talking nonsense. The conversion between the so-called infinite concept and precise value is nothing more than irresponsible vagueness. .

Many people don’t understand. Some people think that Ning Que was hit by the Universiade, and some people think that Ning Que was hiding in private. Only Xie Chengyun had a sense of it, but when he was about to ask more deeply, From afar, the voice of the college teacher calling.

"Xie Chengyun, Wang Ying, Ning Que, Chen Simiao, He Yingqin... report to the surgery room."

Ning Que was stunned when he heard his name, and went to the surgery room to report...what does that mean? Why do I always feel like I am going to report in the respect room, and I feel chilly between my legs? It’s just that it seems inconvenient to ask anyone, so he confessed a few words to Sangsang, and followed Xie Chengyun and others to the depths of the academy. After he found out that there was a young girl who had gone to the surgery room to report Just relax.

No one of the examinees on Shiping showed a surprised look. In fact, the dusk was dark and they did not go home. The main reason was that they wanted to hear if the auditory department would name their names. As the people walked into the depths of the academy, with a look of envy on their faces, Situ Yilan kicked the bluestone slabs in disappointment, looking at Ning Que's back and muttering in a low voice: "What good things are all taken away by this guy. ?"

It didn't take long for the seven or eight candidates to come back from the depths of the academy, as if they were just strolling around. Xie Chengyun's expression was calm, while Wang Ying and other candidates couldn't hide their joy, except for Ning Que's face. There is no expression at all.

In addition to the six subjects, the academy specializes in technical subjects, just to train students with potential for spiritual practice. In the future, those students will be exposed to the technique of swordsmanship, so they are called the technical subjects. The students who had been named before were those whom the teachers thought had potential, and they went to undergo a mental examination.

The reason why Ning Que was selected is related to the small letters of the hairpin he left on the ink scroll and his quick response to math test questions. The academy believed that he should have the potential for practice, but he was responsible for checking his body. However, he rarely missed his teaching, and was disappointed to find that he didn't know anything about it in the sea of ​​anger and snow.

It's just going through a transition between hope and disappointment again. If there is no hope, then there is no disappointment. Ning Que is very aware of his physical condition, so he can deal with it calmly.

Xie Chengyun has already entered the path of cultivation in the Southern Jin Dynasty. Of course, there is no excitement, but Wang Ying and others only today know that they may step into the legendary mysterious door, but it is difficult to suppress Excited.

"I can't." Ning Que spread out his hands and explained to everyone: "Oh...I can't say no...The teacher said that my willpower is okay, but the snow-capped mountains are a little worse and my body is not suitable for practice. "

The academy called seven people by name, but he failed the inspection alone. The gazes of the examinees on the stone ping became more complicated, some of the faint hostility in their eyes turned into sympathy, and of course there were a few people occasionally. There was ridicule in his eyes.

Tang people respect the strong, but they don’t discriminate against the weak. Thousands of years of romance have cultivated their tolerant mood. Situ Yilan, who had been watching Ning Que not pleasing to the eye, sighed and said with sympathy and comfort: "No Too disappointed. After all, there are only a few people who can practice. You can’t help it if we are different."

"This is reasonable, and if you can't practice, it's not necessarily waste wood." Ning Que took the kettle from Sangsang's hand and took a sip, looked at her with a smile and said, "I am a professional wood cutter." /

After saying this, the master and servant walked outside the academy in the twilight.
