Xu Jin and the others walked in the direction of Xinjiang Academy, and several students from the academy joined along the way, nearly twenty people together, quite a bit of mighty momentum.

The most excited are naturally Fei Xiaoyu and Xiao Nu'er, these two are the masters who are afraid that the world will not be chaotic, and it is best to have a lively look!

Du Cripple and several beggars under his command hid in the crowd, their brows furrowed deeply, so many people are not easy to do, not to mention that two of the scholars with their servants are the sons of large families.

Du Cripple can mix up to this day, his vision is still quite vicious, and he estimates that he can't provoke the Fei family brothers with his relationship in the Yamen, but the little slave is worth fifty taels of silver, which is a huge amount of money for him, you must know that at this time, it is only three or four taels of silver to buy the daughter of a poor family as a maid, and you can buy one in a famine year or even two taels of silver.

Therefore, with fifty taels of silver, he can buy a house in the county seat and live a decent life, and he can be chic for several years at worst.

"Boss, do you want to do it?" A few beggars licked their lips, obviously thinking the same as Du Cripple.

"Follow first, and then do it when you have a good chance!" Du lame said in a deep voice.

The so-called wealth is moving, Du Cripple decided to take a risk, he really can't he has a plan, the little slave was abducted, there is no household registration at all, then let the Yacha who is familiar with him come to check the household registration, and take the little slave away, I believe that the little couple who took in the little slave did not dare to say anything, but the big head must have let the Yacha go, and finally it would be good to have ten taels of silver, until the last resort, Du Cripple did not want to take that step.

Xinjiang Academy is also a mile away from the South City Gate, even with Fei Ruyi and other delicate young ladies, it will take about ten minutes to get to the bottom of the mountain.

At this time, there is an endless stream of pedestrians on the way up the mountain, all of whom are people who come to play nearby.

Shangyuan Festival celebrates the whole country, people not only put lanterns, but also like to go out of the city to play in the mountains and rivers, Xinjiang Academy is close to the city, naturally become the most popular good place.

In addition, in ancient times, the academy was similar to the current open university, and as long as it did not affect the teaching, it was allowed to visit and play.

Everyone walked up the stairs to the Xinjiang Academy in the middle of the mountain, and at this time, many people were surrounded by people in the open space outside Yile Hall.

"Please let go, we are from Xinjiangshu!" Cai Yue and Li Yingjun opened the way in front, shouting loudly while walking, and the onlookers gave way one after another.

"Ouch, the reinforcements from Xinjiang Academy are here, what kind of characters are there for me?"

As soon as Xu Jin and the others entered the circle, they heard a very underbeaten sound, Xu Jin looked at it, and suddenly became a little happy.

But there were two scholars facing each other in the field, there were only five people on the side of Xinjiang Academy, led by Li Chen, the inner student, and there were as many as ten people on the opposite side, and the leader was the scholar who had a dispute with the little slave before.

Cai Yue took a step forward and sneered: "Min Shixun is arrogant, these three are the talents of our academy, Fei Maoxian, Fei Maozhong, and Xu Jin!" ”

The ten scholars on the opposite side were all students of Yushan Academy, from Yushan County, a neighboring county.

It is said that although Yushan Academy belongs to Yushan County, it is far away from Shangrao County, and it is only about 30 miles, so the students of Yushan Academy are the first to rush to Shangrao County for the annual government examination, because Shangrao County is the government of Guangxin Mansion, and the government examination is held here.

Before the government examination, in order to brush up their fame, these scholars from other counties often choose to go to Xinjiang Academy to "kick the hall", and they said: meet friends with literature and learn from each other!

Of course, the county exam has not yet been held, and the government exam will have to wait until April, so the group of scholars from Yushan Academy came earlier this year, but it is only a few dozen miles away, and they can go back and forth in a day, which does not prevent these guys from running to warm up first.

After listening to Cai Yue's introduction, the scholars in Yushan Shuxian on the opposite side all burst into laughter, and Min Shixun, who spoke before, pouted and said: "The son of Fei Ge Lao, I have heard of it below, but who is Xu Jin?" I'm really alone! ”

Li Chen grinned gloatingly, he had always regarded Xu Jin as a competitor in the county test, but after the first routine test, he no longer put Xu Jin in his eyes, and at this time he was even more happy to see Xu Jin being despised by the other party.

Xu Jin is very calm, he has only been enrolled for more than a month, and he has not even participated in the county examination, his fame is limited to the scope of Xinjiang Academy, and it is normal for scholars in other counties not to know him.

Cai Yue said unconvinced: "Listen to Yushan Academy, Xu Jin is the leader of our academy's cold literary meeting last year, and even Fei Ge Lao has praised it!" ”

When the scholars of Yushan Academy on the other side heard this, they all put away their contempt a little, they were convinced of Fei Hong, Lianzhong Sanyuan, a fierce man from the official to the cabinet scholar, can they not be convinced?

"Oh, it turned out to be the leader of the Cold Cooling Literary Society, He Wensheng in Xia Yushan Academy, disrespectful!" The scholar who had argued with the little slave before arched his hand.

He Wensheng has already achieved the fame of showing talent, and this time he came to Xinjiang Academy to kick the hall, he led the team, and the other Min Shixun was the "second in command".

Xu Jin arched his hand slightly in response to He Wensheng, however, this indifferent attitude obviously stimulated the people of Yushan Academy.

Min Shimin said with a smile: "It turns out that this is the leader of the Cold Cooling Literary Association, it is disrespectful, it seems that there is really no one in Xinjiang Academy, and a young man who has not reached the crown has taken the lead!" ”

The scholars on the side of Xinjiang Academy were suddenly furious, and Fei Maozhong stepped forward with a flick of his sleeves: "The light of Ermi grains, An dares to speak wildly!" ”

Min Shixun pouted and said: "Cut, just say that you don't practice fake tricks, can you dare to compare with us?" ”

"How to compare? Draw a line! ”

Min Shixun pointed to the pitcher on the ground and said with a smile: "The road has been drawn, the couplet pitcher, now our Yushan Academy is ahead, and we have the ability to catch up!" ”

Pitching pot is a game when the scholars feast and drink, and then gradually developed and spread, and even the boudoir lady in the inner courtyard likes to play.

The game of throwing the pot is very simple, put a copper kettle with a narrow mouth on the ground, and then the person stands at a distance (the distance is customary), throws arrows into the copper kettle, and the one who throws more wins.

The difficulty of throwing the pot in the couplet is greater, that is, the two sides take turns to embarrass each other, and only then can they obtain the qualification to throw, which is not only a test of literary talent, but also a test of physical fitness.

At this time, there was only one lone arrow in the copper kettle on the side of Xinjiang Academy, but there were five arrows on the side of Yushan Shuxian, and the contrast was so stark that it was obviously greatly backward.

Li Chen's face was a little feverish, because he was the main force of Xinjiang Academy just now, and Xinjiang Academy was so far behind, he naturally had a dull face.

Fei Maozhong said proudly: "Isn't it just a couplet throwing pot, look at me out of the couplet!" ”

"Hey, I'm sorry, now it's our turn to come out of Yushan Academy!" Min Se-hoon said proudly.

Han Chuang said coldly: "Don't talk nonsense, even if you let the horse come, we will continue in Xinjiang Academy!" ”

Min Shixun said for a long time: "Then listen well, the upper link is: the ship carries stones, the stone is heavy, the ship is light, and the load is light!" ”

Fei Maozhong said contemptuously: "But so, look at me: the rod measures the ground, the ground is long and the staff is short, and the short is long!" ”

The onlookers here and around Xinjiang Academy applauded in unison.

Fei Maozhong proudly picked up an arrow and walked to the designated position to prepare to throw the pot. There are no arrows for pitching arrows, so you don't have to worry about hurting people.

Sou......

The arrow was thrown out of Fei Maozhong's hand, drawing an arc in the air, and hit the edge of the spout of the copper kettle with a ding, and bounced away, but it didn't enter!

Xinjiang Academy suddenly sighed, but Yushan Academy laughed.

Fei Maozhongjun's face turned red with embarrassment, and he said loudly: "What are you laughing at, it's time for us to come out of the couplet, listen well: the full moon is missing, the moon is lacking, the moon is full, year after year, twilight and dawn, the end of the night will see the sun!" ”

As soon as this couplet came out, everyone in Yushan Academy immediately frowned and thought about it.

Xu Jin nodded secretly, I have to say that Fei Minshou's academic foundation is still very solid, and he is quick-witted.

After a while, I saw He Wensheng frowning, and said: "Flowers bloom and fall, flowers fall and bloom, summer, summer, autumn and autumn, summer and summer are cool, and spring begins after the harsh winter." ”

"Brother He's talented, the technology is overwhelming Xinjiang Academy!" Yushan Academy was cheering here.

He Wensheng arched his hand proudly, turned his head to a scholar next to him, and said, "Twilight, you come to vote!" ”

"Okay, look at me!" The scholar stepped out, moved his arms for a moment, and then walked to the designated position.

Cai Yue introduced in a low voice: "This person's name is Chu Feng, his words are white, and he is very accurate in throwing pots, and he threw all five arrows from Yushan Academy. ”

Xu Jin's heart moved, and he asked, "Can you designate someone to vote?" ”

Cai Yue nodded!

At this time, Na Chu Dubai had already walked to the designated position, shook his particularly long arm, and then lunged back and forth with both feet, and threw two false throws, and the third arrow left his hand!

While......

The arrow was accurately thrown into the mouth of the pot, and after flicking it, it stopped, and it entered!

"Haha, six, I advise you to admit defeat!" Min Se-hoon smirked.

This kind of pot throwing competition is generally limited to ten roots, whoever throws ten roots first will win, at this time Yushan Academy has invested six, and Xinjiang Academy is only one, the difference is huge, the possibility of winning is very slim!

"Damn, the people of Yushan Academy are too arrogant!" Fei Xiaoyu waved her pink fist angrily, and the rest of the women all looked annoyed.

"Xu Jin, you go on, teach them a hard lesson!" The little slave said loudly.

Li Chen nearby snorted coldly: "The little kid who came here, what is the noise, there is no tutor, and I am playing!" ”

The little slave couldn't help but roll his eyes, Xu Jin glanced at Li Chen coldly, he had always ignored him, not because he was afraid of him, but because he felt that this kind of person was superficial and ridiculous, and he just disdained it.

Since the other party is so ignorant of lifting, he doesn't mind giving some color to take a look.

At this time, it was the turn of Yushan Academy to come out, and a scholar came out and chanted: "A cup of tea quenches the thirst of Yuan." ”

As soon as this couplet came out, it was suddenly the turn of everyone in Xinjiang Academy to frown, three consecutive "solution" words, the first is a verb, the second is a surname, and the third is a noun, and the pronunciation is different, which is quite tricky.
