Everyone who has participated in long-distance running has experienced it, or everyone who has watched a long-distance running race has also seen it, those who exceed the limit of their body, after completing the race, their faces are defeated, their dull expressions and eyes, it is not only the exhaustion of their bodies, but also the overdraft of willpower, their bodies and energy are overdrawn, so their bodies and spirits are on the verge of collapse, and what is the force supporting these people to continue to run at that time, it is estimated that they themselves do not know.

It's like Xue Rengui's feeling now, no, he doesn't feel it anymore, he doesn't even know what he's doing, his brain is blank, his right hand is holding the halberd, his feet are running slowly, there is only the road ahead in his eyes, and there are countless small pits, or big pits that can accommodate a person, there is water in these big pits, and others, other Xue Rengui really doesn't know what it is.

Wang Xuance is similar, the only difference is that there is a Xue Rengui in his eyes, in front of him, Xue Rengui who is slowly moving his pace, so he is learning from Xue Rengui's appearance, and he is also slowly moving his steps, only in this way can he ensure that he can continue, Xue Rengui's progress seems to be the only reason for him to keep moving forward now, only by looking at Xue Rengui's progress, he can find a reason to move forward.

He didn't know why he was moving forward, and now he felt that it was impossible to think about why he was moving forward, the mental power had been requisitioned by the body, and now the mental power needed to be used to maintain the functioning of the body, and there was no way to provide it to the brain to continue thinking. The brain has been completely rested, and I don't know when I will start working, but it seems that it will not be possible in the short term.

Wang Xuance didn't know when he would be able to stop, he felt that he might never be able to stop, or never stop, or stop immediately, lie on the ground, and sleep until he was old, and a bed suddenly appeared in front of him. A very soft and comfortable bed. He never realized that a bed could be so comfortable, and the bed he had slept in for twenty years was so kind, and he was so touched.

When can you get to that bed? Relax your body thoroughly. Give every qiē of your body to the bed. Let the bed protect his body, and he ignores his body and enjoys the spiritual pleasure to the fullest. When will such an opportunity be available? When will you get such treatment and comfort?

It may not work now, because I can't stop, look, Xue Rengui is still running in front, he hasn't stopped yet, he really hasn't stopped yet...... Hey? What was that?

Wang Xuance didn't know where the strength came from, so he turned his head slightly, oh, this guy is so happy, he can sleep on the ground, he doesn't have to run anymore, he can sleep like this, snoring loudly, sleeping so soundly, so happy, but this kind of happiness doesn't seem to belong to me at the moment, and I don't know what kind of happiness I can get, anyway, it's not now......

When is the head? Wang Xuance didn't know, Xue Rengui didn't know, Niu Jinda and Duan Zhihong, who were walking slowly on horseback, didn't know, Shangguan Qi who stayed at the starting point of this detachment didn't know, and Suning in the headquarters didn't know, no one knew, because this power belonged to the people involved, and only they could decide, but it was obvious that the decision-making people no longer had the strength to make this decision.

"Oh, Headmaster, at this time, would you be interested in seeing your future students? Take a look at those future protégés of the Son of Heaven? It should be the last moment, and it's almost time for them to arrive, and the people who can hold out until the end are basically the same group of people. Watching the sun set, it was less than half an hour before the first curfew drum, Suning said to Li Erma, who was watching the abstaining candidates cancel their names.

Li Erxi didn't move, just smiled slightly: "How many more people do you think can become my students?" Protégé of the Son of Heaven? Is it enough for a thousand? ”

Suning said: "It must be enough. ”

Li Erqi turned his head to look at Suning and said with a smile: "That's good, I'm just worried that my students are less than a thousand, let others see my jokes, since you are so confident, then let's go and take a look, what are the protégés like these days, where to start?" ”

Suning pointed to the south: "That's the closest place, principal, let's go and take a look!" ”

Indeed, at this time, there is only less than half an hour left before the curfew drum sounds, that is, less than an hour, the overall situation has been decided, only those candidates who are still running and not far from the finish line have the opportunity to rush over, and those who are still moving their bodies step by step to get through the guò river are no longer that opportunity. At the beginning, the scene of the 10,000 people charging can only be seen in a dream, the loss is too great, the loss is too great, and it is difficult to say whether there are 20,000 candidates who are added together, let alone go up.

The chief examiner of each team is full of emotion, when they are this age, if they take such an exam together, it is still unknown whether they can pass guò, after all, it is too difficult, it is almost unimaginable, they feel soreness on the horse, not to mention these people who are running, they are running or walking or sleepwalking can no longer tell, even a sober person can not be found, the generals have reached the forefront of the team, Only the group at the top of the team has a chance to pass the first exam, while the rest of the group has almost no chance.

Although they are still insisting, the significance of persistence is no longer much, what is left to them is honor and pride, but it is not the identity certificate of the students of Datang Military University.

Suning and Li Ermajesty went around the entire periphery of Chang'an to check the situation of each examination room, and came to the south examination room about fifty minutes before the end of the exam, checked it, and no one arrived. When there were still forty minutes before the end of the exam, there was still no shadow in sight, and at this time they had already passed four test centers, and the civil and military officials began to whisper, this is the military university lifting a stone to shoot itself in the foot, making the exam so difficult, it would be fun if even one person could not come back. When the time comes, it will be up to Suning to see how it ends. Isn't it a big mistake to get such a big formation, but no one can get through?

Li Erqi was also a little worried, looking at Suning. But Suning's face was as usual. Even Li Jing's face was as usual. What is the idea of this pair of master and apprentice? Did they already anticipate this scene?

Li Erma's guess was not wrong, as early as three days before the exam, Suning made a prediction. Predicting that according to the current situation, the best Tongguò will not arrive until half an hour before the end of the exam at the earliest, that is, a quarter of an hour later, exceeding this number, Suning feels strange, according to the current physique of the Tang people, except for those who are excellent, only a small number of people can arrive.

It is not surprising that such a large number of people can be brushed out of 100,000 people, if a large number can be retained, Suning will have to spend a lot of money to increase the difficulty of the assessment and brush off more than half of it, and it seems that it is not needed at present, because they have not arrived at all.

Thirty-five minutes before the end of the exam, Li Erma Xià led the team to the fifth test center and stayed for three minutes, but unfortunately, I still didn't see the candidates who passed the guò, the situation was not good, the civil and military officials were talking louder, the civil officials were gloating, the military attache was worried, this kid is still too young, he is not reliable in doing things, and he is not firm in his mouth, this is really the truth!

Twenty-eight minutes from the end of the exam, Li Er Majesty Xià led the team to arrive at the sixth test center, and a group of faltering candidates and cavalry strolling on horses appeared in their eyes, the civil official shut up, the military attache opened his mouth, the two sides were happy and worried, Li Er Majesty Xià was even more overjoyed, Suning nodded, that's right, twenty-eight minutes, almost, almost the first batch of candidates to arrive, I don't know who the first place is, according to Suning's instructions, the staff will accurately calculate the time, Although it is only a rough outline, Suning can also roughly know the specific situation of this exam.

Here, it seems to be the examination room of Xue Rengui and Wang Xuance, right? Niu Jinda and Duan Zhihong's team for the exam, I don't know what the situation is, Li Erma obviously wants to know how the exam is, so without waiting for Suning to step forward, Li Erma Xià took the lead and rushed over, he wanted to wait for the first batch of candidates to arrive with the staff and the Minister of Civil and Military Affairs, and then give them additional rewards, so that they can understand what the emperor's grace is, by the way, he also wants to see what kind of people these candidates who persevered to the end.

Arrived at the test center, all the staff were anxiously looking at the faltering candidates not far away, no one even noticed the arrival of Li Erma, Li Ermaxi didn't care, what he wanted to know most was those candidates, as for the others were not important, so when those staff saw Li Erma's arrival and saluted in shock, Li Ermaxi just waved his hand and looked at those candidates with full attention.

With the passage of time, Suning has seen the two people in front, one of them is Xue Rengui, but unfortunately Su Dingfang is not here, Su Dingfang patrols everywhere with mobile soldiers and horses, but also to avoid suspicion, but Suning clearly saw Xue Rengui running in the first place with a pale face, and a pale person following behind him, I don't know who it is, but the eyes of all the civil and military officials have all focused on Xue Rengui's body, without him, the halberd in Xue Rengui's hand is too conspicuous.

"That's a halberd?"

"It can't be true, right?"

"It should be true, and it can be seen to carry a lot of weight."

"This must weigh at least twenty or thirty pounds, who is this person? Persevering until now? Or the first place? ”

…………

Li Erqi was obviously also interested in Xue Rengui, and asked, "Who is the person who is running first with a halberd in hand?" ”

Suning didn't answer, Shangguan Qi stood up and said: "Back to Your Majesty, this person is Xue Li, a native of Longmen, Jiangzhou, the word Rengui, eighteen years old this year, this person is the minister responsible for recording the name, at the beginning there were some small things, when he signed up, he still had twenty-four days before turning eighteen years old, the minister didn't let him pass guò, he didn't want to, and in the end Su Hou came forward to let him sign up after the twenty-fourth, just in time for the last day to sign up, so he was quite impressed, and after that, it seemed that he left with Su Hou. ”

Li Ermajesty looked at Suning, Suning nodded: "The minister looks at this person unusually, and he came from afar, and he has no place to live, so he took him back to live in the mansion, a lot of things happened here, and finally he was favored by the eldest brother Su Lie and accepted as a disciple, and now he is settled in the minister's mansion, and the halberd is a gift from the eldest brother, weighing, forty catties."
