Chapter 4 School Examination

In the yard.

"The purpose of a university is to promote the moral integrity of being open and upright, to make people abandon the old and seek the new, and to make people reach the most perfect state."

"Only by knowing the state you should reach can you be firm in your ambitions; only by firm in your ambitions can you be calm and not impatient; only by calm and not impatient can you be at ease; only by being at ease can you think about Zhou Xiang; only by thinking about Zhou Xiang can you gain something."

Master Pang's melodious voice sounded in the courtyard again, flowing into Zhang Yang's ears like a trickle.

This feeling is as delicious as drinking nectar.

He was just listening to it, and his feet were unconsciously moving towards the courtyard. However, when his left foot was about to step into the courtyard gate, suddenly a faint pressure poured down from the courtyard gate, blocking him outside.

This sudden Weiya immediately woke up Zhang Yang.

At the same time, he couldn't help but look up at the courtyard gate.

I saw a plaque on the gate of the courtyard, with four big characters written on it - Qinghe Academy.

Those four characters are written in running script, with the pen flowing ink and flowing clouds and water. They are completed in one go without losing their strength, and their figures are spread without exaggerating. There is a faint feeling of a word that wants to jump out.

Not only that, Zhang Yang clearly vaguely saw a faint glow rising on the surface of the handwriting, as if it had a certain rhythm, which made his eyes attracted by it.

Fortunately, this attraction was not malicious, so Zhang Yang quickly woke up, but he never dared to step into the academy again. He just bowed to the yard and waited for get out of class to end.

Although he seemed ordinary, he was shocked in his heart.

Obviously, I was shocked by the mysterious situation in front of me and became even more uneasy.

"Are there really ghosts and gods in this world? Or... extraordinary?"

There have been rumors in the village that demons are rampant in this world, and extraordinary people are like a river crossing the river. They have never seen him before, just treat it as a rumor, but now Zhang Yang has experienced this strange scene in front of him, which really shocked him.

However, although he was shocked, he hoped to be able to enter the school. Even if he could not become a high-ranking official, he would have to learn the ability to save his life in this extremely dangerous world.

I don’t know how long I waited until Zhang Yang’s legs were sore and numb, a majestic sound suddenly rang in his ears.

"Come in!"

Zhang Yang suddenly felt as if he was listening to the sound of nature, and then he strode towards the classroom.

But this time, the people at the gate of the courtyard never emitted any pressure and allowed him to enter the courtyard.

When you enter the courtyard, you feel like you have entered another world. Every brick, every tile, every flower, and every dust seem to become softer, giving people a feeling of being light and floating all over.

However, Zhang Yang did not dare to watch everywhere, but walked to the door outside the school and stopped again, bowed his hands and waited for Master Pang's following.

Seeing Zhang Yang being polite, Mr. Pang couldn't help but smile on his serious old face, then turned around and walked towards Zhang Yang, and asked with a smile: "Where do you want to come from?"

"Disciple Zhang Yang is a despicable husband in the village. Although he had read some words with his father when he was young, his father had passed away and no one taught him. Fortunately, he listened to his teacher's words as if he was drinking nectar. So he hoped to be a teacher and listen to his teachings!"

Zhang Yang raised his head and was neither humble nor arrogant.

He had thought about this set of words, but now he is talking about them in an orderly and reasonable manner without any sense of incongruity.

"Oh?" Mr. Pang was a little surprised. He just thought that the boy in front of him was a passing by and was curious and waiting, but he never thought that he wanted to worship him as his teacher. After all, it is not easy to enter school. Judging from Zhang Yang's clothes, he is not a wealthy family. If you want to offer to study, you may not be able to offer to you.

However, it was this deficit that made Master Pang interested. When he heard Zhang Yang read the book, he stopped short of his eyes and asked: "I think your annual appointment is a little late now. The saints say that there is no difference in teachings. When I enter the saints, I will naturally abide by the saints' words.

You said that you had read books when you were young, but you didn’t know what books you read? Can you know the text of a thousand characters? Can you write a hundred surnames? Can you recite the three characters? How much do you know about the great works of the Saint Emperor?”

The Three-character Classic, the Hundred Family Names and the Thousand Characters are all enlightenment books, and Master Pang did not make things difficult for Zhang Yang to ask this question. On the contrary, he even had three points lower than other students because of Zhang Yang's poverty.

Of course, this is related to Zhang Yang's politeness just now, and it is in line with the word "ritual" in the gentleman's way he taught his disciples.

"Reply to Mr.!" Zhang Yang immediately responded with politeness: "The three-character classic, the hundreds of family names and the thousands of characters have been read, and he can also recite it. However, the students' family is poor and have no money to buy brushes and ink, so they cannot practice calligraphy, so their handwriting is a bit ugly!"

He was originally a later generation, and he was well-known for these three enlightenment books at that time. As a college student in the literature department, he was no longer familiar with it. As a calligraphy department, it was the shortcoming of every modern person. Although he was involved, he was not very involved. From the perspective of it, he was only at the level of a beginner. Now he said it to give Mr. Pang a vaccination.

"Well, it's not bad, it's not easy! It's not easy for your family to learn these three essays, but if you want to enter my door, you have to take my exam. Are you willing?"

Master Pang became more and more satisfied with Zhang Yang's performance, but he had set rules for the school exam early in the morning to prevent people with misconduct from getting involved in the school exam. Everyone knew this rule. When Zhang Yang came, he might take the school exam.

"Disciple is willing!" Zhang Yang hurriedly sorted out his clothes and bowed his head to wait for the school entrance exam.

At this moment, many students in the classroom were already looking out through doors and windows, and were curious to see someone trying to become a disciple.

However, when they saw that the person who came was dressed in poverty, they couldn't help but look contempt.

Most of them are rich families in the town, and there are even children of aristocratic families who came from Lantian County. Although these people are working tirelessly to study under Master Pang on weekdays, after all, the high sect is the high sect and feels superior from the bottom of their hearts.

Now when the Master takes the school entrance exam, most of them just treat it as a joke. A poor man is worthy of knowing the saint's subtle words? It's ridiculous!

However, just as these students were about to watch Zhang Yang's joke, a student who was a fair-faced and slightly short in a gray shirt by the window of the classroom looked out the window with interest, and his crystal-like ears moved slightly from time to time.

She obviously heard the conversation outside.

Outside the door.

Master Pang thought for a while, then asked: "Reading will make sense and then you will know the great meaning. Since you have read the Three Character Classic, I will test you, what does the original nature of a person mean?"

As an enlightenment book, the Three Character Classic is the most basic and easy to understand, especially the first paragraph of the beginning of people, as the name suggests, generally speaking, ordinary people know the meaning.

When the teacher heard about the exam questions, the students in the classroom started to make excuses.

This is not an exam for the school. It’s simply impossible to say that the Master wants to collect this poor person, and who did not get into the exam with his ability?

Master Pang naturally noticed the situation in the classroom, but he did not stop it.
