Along the road, there were beautiful oak trees, so Chen Baiqi noticed that there were moo oxen carriages parked on both sides of the stone path. He couldn't help but asked the book boy leading the way strangely: "Why are there so many cars parked here?"

The scholar didn't look back, but said matter-of-factly: "I am a scholar who goes to the academy to study, and he is the carriage of nobles from all over the world."

"The road up the mountain is rugged and steep. How can an ox or a horse withstand the strength?" Chen Bai looked up at the water in deep silence, puzzled.

The book boy stopped, looked back at her, and smiled playfully: "Isn't it just that if you drag yourself when you are tired, you only have the strength of an ox or a horse?"

The Shutong Jing has been influenced by the academy for hundreds of years, and his nature has become enlightened. He knows what can be said and what should not be said. Therefore, he did not directly tell the reason, but Chen Baiqi also understood it.

Animals are not the only things in this world that can pull with force.

Chen Baiqi didn't need to close his eyes to imagine how a group of naked coolie men, dripping with sweat and grinding their teeth, ferociously carried these "scholars" and "nobles" carried by oxen and horses, using rough ropes to fray their shoulders and tear people apart.

It was dragged up the mountain comfortably.

The wealthy aristocrats of the Spring and Autumn Period had the power to spend extremely extravagantly.

The bookboy led Chen Baiqi to a bamboo forest. From a distance, the foothills were covered with bamboos, layer after layer. Not only could they not distinguish the bamboo branches, branches and leaves, but also the rocks, paths, bridges and running water could not be seen.

It felt like it was completely submerged in the ocean of bamboo.

The green bamboos all over the mountain swayed in the wind, making a beautiful sound, as if someone was blowing a huge bamboo flute.

When the book boy saw Chen Baiqi staring blankly in front of the bamboo forest, he bowed to her and saluted her, then left and said, "I hope that Mr. Lang will be able to display his great ambitions in the Yaji."

In response to these auspicious words, Chen Bai returned the favor with a smile. After the book boy left, she felt a little thirsty. She heard the sound of water coming from deep in the bamboo forest, so she walked along the path in the bamboo forest.

As soon as she passed through the dense bamboo forest, the sunlight finally shone into the bamboo forest. The sparse sunlight seemed very gentle, and what lay before her was a shocking picture like splashing ink, filled with famous scholars from all ages.

On both sides of a silky silver-white stream, there are groups of scholars wearing t-shirts and wide-banded robes. Some are spreading felt mats and playing with strings, some are arguing with each other, and some are drunk and lax...

Not far away, a trade wind red-tiled eaves corner pavilion stands on the water. People are coming and going above it. Many people hold up bamboo slips and talk fiercely with each other. You can vaguely hear - I don't think so, I think...

…

Chen Baiqi opened his eyes slightly and breathed lightly. As soon as he stepped into the painting, all the people in the painting were awakened.

They stopped playing the piano, talking, and waving their pens. They all looked at her boldly, hidden, inadvertently, surprised, or impatiently.

It is said that today is the last day that Yuelu Academy is open to the outside world, and a large number of emigrated scholars from various countries have poured in. The academy does not want to cause chaos on the last day, so it has specially tightened the barriers. Generally speaking, if you want to get through this

The three levels are a difficult task. Generally speaking, it would take some time to pass these three levels. Why did you arrive at the bamboo forest so quickly?

They were first surprised by "Chen Huanxian's" appearance, but this was only a momentary shock. Then their eyes picked out every object that represented her identity, and they whispered to each other and asked who this person was?

At this time, Chen Baiqi was unknown and unknown.

Apart from a visible face, there is no trace left in other people's hearts.

Chen Baiqi was still in a daze just now, "I have really come to this generation of scholars." But after being looked at by these piercing eyes, he had no idea at all.

She checked the system's "regional map" and found that here is the Zhulin Pavilion and here is the Zhuli Pavilion. However, the Zhuli Pavilion is just the entrance to the elegant gathering, but she did not expect that so many scholars have gathered there.

Chen Bai set her sights on "climbing a high platform" and did not miss this place. She wanted to cross the river and climb the rocky path to continue moving forward, but was stopped by someone.

After the two servants stopped her, they retreated.

At this time, there was a person standing on the railing from the high pavilion. He looked at Chen Bai a few times. Based on his first impression (face), he praised her and asked, "Dare you ask me your name?"

Chen Baiqi checked his information and learned that this person was the county magistrate of the original township. He immediately bowed deeply to the pavilion and replied: "My lord, Chen Huanxian, I have no words yet."

When County Magistrate Wang heard this, he found that the Chen family had never been heard of in Yuanxiang County. Yuanxiang County had more than 10,000 registered residents. There were seven surnames among the high-ranking gentry, and there were hundreds of common people from poor families who had inherited poems and books. , there are some sporadic poor households that still have Confucian disciples. I guess the person named Chen Huanxian is not from the high-ranking gentry or the poor common people, but he must be the remaining poor households and humble scholars.

As a result, the county magistrate's attitude towards Chen Baiqi became much colder.

"You can stay here for now. If you want to climb higher, you need to answer the questions and pass."

I heard someone next to me sneer in a low voice: "This threshold is just for the poor people, but I didn't see that gentleman stepping forward to stop the famous people."

Chen Baiqi had a good ear and listened attentively. He already knew the secrets inside, so he calmly bowed to the pavilion and said with a smile: "Your Excellency, please give me a question."

The county magistrate thought for a moment. This poor scholar only read a few Confucian books. He was afraid that she would not be able to answer a random question, so he shook his head and said lazily: "The Book of Songs, Sanghu, but Can you recite hymns?"

When Chen Baiqi heard this, he thought that the test questions were really given to her for nothing. She was the most familiar with the Book of Songs and was sure of it, but on his face he said calmly: "I have read it."

Oh? The county magistrate looked at her unexpectedly and asked, "Read the whole story? Memorize it."

Chen Baiqi said: "When you make friends with the mulberry tribes, there are orioles in their feathers. A gentleman enjoys his support, and is favored by heaven. When he makes friends with the mulberry tribes, there are orioles who lead him. A gentleman enjoys his favors, and he is the screen of all nations. The screen of Han is made up of hundreds of emperors. No. Fighting is not difficult, and the blessings are not that great. I drink wine and think softly. He makes friends with bandits, and I wish you all the blessings."

The county magistrate was stunned after hearing this. He knew it was word for word. She had actually read this poem?

He took it for granted that ordinary people from poor families did not have the background and conditions to read such articles that were treasured by noble families.

However, he thought that even if she was lucky enough to read it, she might not be able to explain its meaning.

The county magistrate asked another difficult question and said in a deep voice: "What is the meaning of this poem?"

Chen Baiqi was about to answer, but saw the county magistrate hurriedly added: "It's not a literal translation, it's just the meaning."

At this time, many scholars from poor families were gathered around to listen and could not go deep into the "Treasure Mountain". However, they were not in a hurry to leave, so they took this opportunity to interact with people of the same way.

Seeing that Chen Baiqi could recite the "Book of Songs - Sanghu" chapter, they were initially confused and suspicious, but seeing that the county magistrate did not refute, they knew that she really knew how to recite it, and they all admired it. It was rare for them to hear such a unique chapter in the Book of Songs. They all pricked up their ears and kept it in mind.

Just as I was writing it down, I heard that the county magistrate had asked another question after he passed the exam, and they all showed anger. The people who stay here now are all children from poor families who were blocked by this checkpoint.

The county magistrate clearly intended to embarrass the jade man. It was rare for her to be able to write down this poem, but he still had to ask her to explain its meaning further. You must know that the poems of this era are all based on relevant backgrounds and cultures to understand.

Come on.

No one explains this, and no one teaches it. How can ordinary scholars understand and explain it?

But just when the poor people thought that the young man would be left behind like them, they saw the young man smiling easily.

Chen Baiqi: "This poem first points out that the happiness of a gentleman comes from the blessings given by God, and also emphasizes the importance of the gentleman and the princes to the country."

The county magistrate frowned, but the explanation was pretty good, so he nodded.

Chen Baiqi added, "From a student's point of view, it also has another meaning, that is, by using straightness and softness of nature, wine can be as good as wine, and if a person is not arrogant, he will continue to be blessed."

How could the county magistrate not know the meaning of this poem? When he heard that her opinion was exactly what it meant, even better, and when he analyzed it deeper, he couldn't help but admire her.

"Pass! Pass!" The county magistrate's eyes shone.

He said it twice, showing a common understanding.

Just when the county magistrate was excited, someone stood up from the railing next to him. He was leaning in a somewhat careless posture, and Tang's ruffled shirt was loose and hanging down. He was looking down from above.

"Chen Huanxian, if you can cross Yujingtai, you can come to Xue Yi to seek refuge with me." This man is dressed in a rich attire, with gold and jade around his waist, fur clothes, crown and shoes, a crown on his head, and two groups on both sides.

The tassel hangs down and is tied under the chin, and the braided hair on the back of the head is pulled up and wrapped into a crown. He is not as elegant and frivolous as the scholars, but he looks noble and noble.

"This is Mr. Mengchang, and I can't thank you enough for your appreciation." When the county magistrate heard this, he was really surprised, and he immediately bowed to this man, with a flattering smile on his face.

Chen Baiqi took advantage of the situation and looked up at the pavilion.

"The system has detected that there is a hero candidate around you who can awaken the Kirin bloodline. The Kirin bloodline has increased by 3%, 4%, 5%, 6%... The Kirin bloodline has reached 6%..."

"The Kirin blood in your body has awakened 6%, and your body is undergoing marrow washing, cutting and bone strengthening..."

Chen Baiqi did not expect to meet the candidate lord so soon, and was stunned on the spot.

System: "Host body, soul scan."

System: "The scan is completed, the body has been strengthened by 6%, and the physical fitness can be enhanced by 20%."

Chen Baiqi went through the marrow-breaking process again. Fortunately, the intensity was much lighter than when she first encountered Young Master Cang Yue. She gritted her teeth and endured it.

She checked Meng Changjun's information and saw the following.
