Chapter 134 Zeng Liangjiang, the master of both calligraphy and archery, created the unique cursive script?

Soon, Zeng Anmin entered the examination room.

The two teams inspecting ahead were from the Imperial City Bureau.

The leader was Bai Ziqing's subordinate.

The Huangshi stone from the Imperial City Administration.

If I remember correctly, his position was Tiqi, one rank higher than Tizi.

"What a coincidence."

Zeng An had only met this man named Huang Shi a few times.

But there are still stereotypes about it.

This man was not very talkative. When he did speak, it would be something like, "The Imperial City Division is investigating the case, clear the streets!" or "All outsiders, evacuate immediately!"

Anyway, he has a loud voice.

"Ahem."

Zeng Anmin handed over his backpack.

Huang Shi just nodded to Zeng Anmin.

Didn't say a word more.

Zeng Anmin also remained silent.

After all, this is an examination room.

In fact, the main thing to check here is whether there are any sharp weapons hidden in the students' backpacks.

After all, there are many restrictions on the imperial examinations in the fantasy array.

There is no way to cheat by using notes like in a regular written test.

“Let him go!”

After the inspection, Huangshi waved lightly to the people around him.

"yes."

Some of the grapes had met Zeng Anmin before.

Now Bai Ziqing has won the appreciation of His Majesty and has made several great achievements in succession.

It can be said that he is a rising star in the Imperial City Division.

At that time, the young people were not promoted as fast as him.

"This is the rest area for candidates."

After entering the examination room, Zeng Anmin saw everything clearly.

This is an extremely empty place.

There are two platforms similar to "rings" in the middle.

There are all kinds of mysterious and complex patterns on the table.

It’s not the same as the last “assessment” I participated in in the East Palace.

But they look similar, I just don't know if there are any differences.

Zeng Anmin followed the clerk to the rest area for the candidates.

See clearly.

There are only about a hundred candidates here.

However, I can feel that they are basically Confucian and Taoist monks.

Everyone sat in their seats in silence.

Spread out a blanket or cushion and sit quietly.

No one spoke.

"Zeng Anmin, Imperial College, this is your position."

After seeing Zeng Anmin's ID card, the clerk's attitude became a little more respectful.

Obviously, the Confucian scholars of the Imperial College and Qilin Academy have a higher status when they go out than the students of private schools or miscellaneous academies.

"Thank you."

Zeng Anmin bowed slightly, opened his backpack, and took out a small recliner from it.

Then he took out a folding table.

He took out another folding umbrella.

Open the folding umbrella, stand it in front of the table, open the lounge chair and lie on it.

There were also two bags of roast chicken, a pot of wine, two cold dishes and a portion of pastry in the backpack.

He didn't take out everything, but just took out the pot of wine and a big cup.

Pour the wine into the cup and then put the wine jug into the bag.

After doing all this, he let out a light sigh.

"Comfortable."

Lying on a rocking chair, there is an umbrella next to me and a small table next to the umbrella.

On the table is a bottle of fine wine that you can take a sip of at any time.

He took out a small blanket from his backpack.

After covering himself with it, he waited happily with his eyes half closed.

See his series of smooth and flowing actions.

The students nearby were stunned.

"This is……"

How many of them have regrets on their faces.

If I had known I would have brought it too!!

There was nothing I could do but watch Zeng Anmin get comfortable.

"Liu Fengnian is quite reliable sometimes."

Zeng Anmin enjoyed the rocking of the rocking chair and gave Liu Xian a thumbs up in his heart.

The reason why he was able to bring all these was because Liu Fengnian summed them up with tears and snot.

Otherwise, why do we say that those who plant trees will enjoy the shade?

"Wang Langlang of Shiqi Academy, prepare to enter the illusion array!"

A rather magnanimous voice sounded.

Zeng Anmin looked up and saw a disciple from the Xuanzhen Division standing on the stage with an expressionless face, calling out names:

"Qilin Academy Liu Xiu, Imperial College Qin Qi, get ready."

After saying that, he turned and walked towards his seat.

After passing by Sai Chuxue, he looked respectful and bowed before sitting down in his seat.

Sai Chuxue's face was solemn.

Her delicate little face looked towards the stage.

As the chief examiner, she appeared extremely calm in front of everyone.

But Zeng Anmin could see sharply the clenched little hand that was faintly visible under her sleeve.

"hehe."

Zeng Anmin smiled.

The working girl has a socially anxious personality and has become the focus in front of so many people. Her heart must be pounding at this moment, right?

But he didn't care and just focused his eyes on the huge stage in the middle of the field.

The Confucian cultivator whose name had just been called had already walked to the stage.

“Chiu!!”

As the man stood on the stage, a green light suddenly flashed on the ground of a huge arena.

The source of the green light was the spirit stone beneath the complex patterns on the floor.

Suddenly, a green light that was invisible to the naked eye instantly penetrated into the man's brain.

“Buzz!!!”

The next moment.

Green light emerged from the man's mind again.

It turned into a huge scroll and slowly unfolded.

"Isn't this just watching a movie?"

Zeng Anmin blinked, a strange look on his face.

When he was taking the test in the Eastern Palace, he was inside the formation and had no idea how the outside world knew about his experience in the illusion formation.

Now that this scene appeared, he subconsciously understood it.

Is it so cool?

Can you watch a movie and sunbathe at the same time?

Now that spring has arrived in April, the sunshine on my face feels so comfortable.

Zeng Anmin felt that all he needed was a pair of sunglasses.

He raised his head and looked at the huge scroll comfortably.

As the scroll unfolds.

The man appeared in an unfamiliar environment.

This environment is a very ordinary house.

The student slowly sat up from the bed before he could react.

Then a figure was seen stumbling out of the door.

"Husband, there is a monster slaughtering the town."

The figure was a young woman with an ordinary appearance, but her face was full of panic.

A word fell.

The student was shocked, then he looked at the woman stutteringly: "Li Niang, what did you say?"

"The demon tribe is attacking! The village chief, the head of the village... they are all dead..."

The woman cried and grabbed the student's arm: "Husband, let's go quickly, it will be too late if we don't leave now!"

"Bang!!!"

As soon as the woman finished speaking, a monster that looked like a giant dog with a human body knocked the door open.

“Ouch!!!”

Seeing two living people in the house, the giant dog-man actually uttered a human voice from his mouth:

"Hoho! There are still people here!"

There was a hint of human-like grin on the dog's face.

The next moment, the dog demon stood up, greed in its scarlet eyes, and bit the woman's back without saying a word.

"Li Niang!!"

The student was still in a daze when his entire face was stained with blood.

"Ah, husband... please go away..."

The ordinary woman named Li Niang had an expression of immense pain and misery on her face.

She gripped the dog demon's legs tightly.

"Go! Go! Not here!!"

The student was obviously panicked and his face turned pale with fear at this sudden scene.

He even ignored the fact that Li Niang was being eaten by the giant dog.

He stumbled and ran outside.

…

Seeing this, almost all the students outside the venue pursed their lips tightly.

Everything that happens in the scroll is extremely real.

No one would laugh at the student's cowardice for abandoning his wife and children and choosing to run away.

Because they knew that once they entered the formation, their memories would be blocked.

He had no idea that he was on a scientific expedition.

If it were me, would I be even more cowardly than he acted?

No one can answer this question.

You will only know if you enter the formation yourself.

…………

The student ran out of the door and stood on the street in a daze.

Where are the people on the streets at this time?

There were broken bodies everywhere.

Everywhere there were giant dogs with human bodies gnawing greedily.

"Pfft~"

The man collapsed directly to the ground.

In an instant, feces and urine were flowing everywhere.

"There are still people here."

A monster with a dog's head and a human body saw him and without any hesitation, it jumped up and bit the student's head.

“Crack.”

The huge scroll floating in the air suddenly closed!

The student sitting on the stage opened his eyes with a look of extreme horror:

"Don't eat me!! Please don't eat me!!"

He covered his head frantically on the stage.

Rolling on the ground.

The scene was extremely silent, with only the sound of his screams.

Finally, after shouting for a while, he finally reacted.

Memory recovery.

"this……"

He sat there blankly.

"Wang Langlang, an eighth-rank Confucian cultivator, if you dare to mobilize your literary energy, the dog demons in the formation will not be your match! Kill one and you will pass! But you chose not to resist!"

A stern voice sounded:

"You lost this time because of your own cowardice!"

Everyone turned a deaf ear to this harsh voice.

All the students waiting for the exam had grim expressions on their faces.

It is obvious that Wang Langlang's failure is like a huge rock pressing on everyone's heart.

"Next, Liu Xiu from Qilin Academy, prepare to enter the illusion array!!"

The owner of the harsh voice was none other than the outer sect disciple of the Xuanzhen Division.

He looked at the student in the front row with an expressionless face.

At this time, two guards from the Imperial City Bureau had already carried away Wang Langlang, who had failed the imperial examination.

…

Zeng Anmin touched his chin.

Could it be that the purpose of this imperial examination is to see who can kill the most dog demons?

But it turns out.

He was wrong.

As the next person comes on stage.

A completely different scene appeared on the field.

It’s unclear whether this student from Qilin Academy is lucky or what.

His magic array was not bloody.

Just disaster relief.

The scroll slowly unrolled.

After passing the imperial examination, the student was recommended and entered the Ministry of Revenue.

The imperial court asked him to escort the silver to the disaster relief area.

But he didn't know he was in the formation.

So, he couldn't resist the temptation and tragically embezzled a hundred taels of silver from the disaster relief funds...

"Qilin Academy's Liu Xiu, blinded by greed, was eliminated from the imperial examination!"

…

Time flies.

The students sitting in the seats waiting all clenched their fists tightly.

Three hours passed.

Eleven people have already entered the illusion array.

Only two passed.

The scene for each person entering the illusion array is different.

Some kill demons, and some provide disaster relief.

Some even became county magistrates and solved cases in public.

The most bizarre thing is that after a person knew he had become an official, he actually went directly to the Jiaofangsi...

That would have been fine, but after having sex, he even used his official position to pressure the brothel owner to not pay the price...

Every dark side of human nature was gradually revealed to everyone along with this formation.

"Next one, from the Imperial College, Zeng Anmin."

As soon as these words were spoken.

The whole scene was silent for a moment.

"Zeng Anmin?"

"The loyal minister the prince mentioned?"

"Zeng Liangjiang, the one who's become famous in Beijing recently? Zeng Saibei?"

"It must be him, the Imperial College, that's for sure."

"The one who entered the Dao through the art of archery, Zeng Anmin, among the selected students?"

"In the Imperial College, there's Zeng Liangjiang, the man who invented the wild cursive script and excelled in both calligraphy and archery?"

“…………”

Some students couldn't help but start discussing when they heard the name.

Zeng Anmin has indeed caused quite a stir in the capital during this period.

First, he wrote a poem called "Liangjiang Fu". Before he arrived in Beijing, his reputation had already been established.

Immediately afterwards, he passed the Eastern Palace assessment, became famous, and his reputation as a national minister was completely established.

A seven-character poem about the frontier is even more loyal to the emperor and the country!

He then entered the Imperial College, learned the art of archery, and became famous for his studies.

Finally, he gained some insights from copying Qin Dajia's "traditional characters", and directly realized the art of "calligraphy", creating a precedent for the cursive script!

These things, one by one.

Even if an ordinary person does just one thing, it is enough to make him famous.

And he did all this in just three months!

All the students in the capital were convinced.

Some even boasted, "As long as nothing unexpected happens to Zeng Liangjiang, in twenty years, our Great Saint Dynasty will have another second-rank Confucian cultivator who will become a sub-saint alongside Dean Shi of Qilin Academy!"

On the platform.

Sai Chuxue was also slightly stunned after hearing this name.

Then the eyes began to scan downwards.

Just a quick glance.

Didn't see it.

“Huh~”

Zeng Anmin slowly stood up from the recliner and stretched.

He first picked up the wine in the glass on the table, took a sip, and then smiled.

Towards the direction of the ring.

As he stood up.

All the students around were stunned.

"He is Zeng Anmin?"

"No way??"

"How could Zeng Liangjiang be like this..."

The man took a look at the three-piece set of lounge chair, umbrella, and small table left by Zeng Anmin.

There was a look of confusion on his face, and he stared blankly at Zeng Anmin walking towards the ring.

Zeng Anmin felt everyone's gazes, but the smile on his face remained unchanged.

He took out his candidate card from his pocket slowly and handed it to the Imperial City Sitizi in front of the formation.

After checking the grapes, the one from the Imperial City Bureau handed them back respectfully.

"please."

Tizi moved sideways to make way for Zeng Anmin to enter.

Zeng Anmin first looked up at Sai Chuxue on the platform.

Sai Chuxue was also looking at him at this time.

The two looked at each other, Zeng Anmin raised his eyebrows and smiled brightly.

Then he headed towards the formation.

“Pah.”

He stood just right.

Then he felt a burst of green light coming straight towards him at an extremely fast speed.

This feeling is similar to the last assessment in the East Palace.

The next moment, he felt his eyes darken slightly.

Sit down where you are.

A huge green scroll slowly floated into the air from above his head and slowly unfolded.
