Cai Wei has short hands, which is a natural disadvantage. But the sword she will use in the future is short and light, which is another advantage. The sword is short and light, it is enough to use it with one hand, and with the other, it is free, and there are generally three options.

Those who are good at calculations pinch their swords and make calculations to be an assistant. If the other party is Ma Daha, ignore the hidden weapon in your hand, then it is better, he will be injured by the hidden weapon, or even shot. If you don't use both, you will generally hold a scabbard, and the killing is not as good as the sword trick in your hand, and the deterrence is not as good as the hidden weapon, but the swordsmanship performed in this way is basically an offensive and defensive one, and it belongs to a steady and steady shape, requiring long physical strength. There is also the last option, which is naturally to focus on swordsmanship and directly idle the other hand.

Cai Wei has not practiced martial arts since she was a child, coupled with the body of a woman, her physical strength is naturally weak, and the style of play that suits her is a quick battle in itself, don't think about it with a scabbard in hand. As for the hand-pinched sword technique, Li Yu, who is a master of poetry and sword, is like this, he has read a lot of books, and his ability in arithmetic is not weak.

Therefore, Cai Wei is left with only two options, one is to focus on swordsmanship, this way is extremely terrifying, or it requires a strong sense of killing, the sword is like electricity, and the requirements for strength are very high. Either it requires a very high level of swordsmanship, and a clever word is practiced to the peak, as is the case with some swordsmanship masters who are famous for their swordsmanship. No matter which of these two points, Cai Wei can't do it in a short time.

Therefore, she also has the last one left, a sword in one hand and a hidden weapon in the other.

The Willow Leaf Flying Knife is a good choice, and Devil May Cry decides to teach her this kind of flying knife. This kind of flying knife has no low requirements for wrist strength, but it doesn't matter, swordsmanship itself requires wrist strength, your physical strength can not work, and your strength can not work, but wrist strength must not fail, practicing swordsmanship itself is practicing wrist strength, and after a body of swordsmanship is practiced, wrist strength cannot be low.

After making a decision, Ghost Cry began to make a series of plans for Cai Wei, getting up early to practice swords, practicing in the morning, practicing flying knives in the afternoon, practicing swords in the evening, practicing halfway through practice, resting, and having Ghost Cry dictate the precautions in the rivers and lakes, as well as some relevant knowledge of demons and monsters, and in the evening, recite and write a poem in the "Book of Songs".

For this reason, Devil May Cry paid a woman to help with laundry, cooking, and housework.

The day is full, and such days are very painful. But Caiwei gritted her teeth and persevered.

The days passed like this, and the purse of the ghost crying became deflated day by day.

Spending money to hire someone to help with housework, making utensils for Cai Wei, and buying medicinal herbs for her to take a bath, and meat that needs to fill the belly of a big dark horse are all big money-spending.

So, as soon as Ghost Cry was free, he began to run to the beggar's nest and take some work, which was barely enough to make ends meet.

Gradually, February passed, and March arrived.

Unconsciously, the wicker sprouted, and the banks of the Qiantang River were lush and green. On the West Lake, there are more and more tourists. Some of the students who failed to make the list left one after another, and some found a place to live and began to study hard to prepare for the next year.

And the high school tribute students are gearing up to fight for a good ranking in the palace examination. Gradually, the time ran to March 15.

On this day, the weather was fine.

Before dawn, the tributes had finished washing, put on their best clothes, and gathered at the gate of the palace. Chu Junwen was mixed in, in order not to be embarrassed by the reincarnation of the five grains, he didn't eat or drink before going out, his stomach was empty at the moment, and his lips and tongue were dry, but all this was worth it. The tribute students present also did the same.

Gradually, the sky turned white. Slowly, the palace door opened.

The tributes entered one after another, and then the eunuchs at the gate of the palace got up and down, and they had no grievances, and walked in with a bumpy heart. Through the doors one floor by one, under the escort of the palace guards, and under the leadership of the officials, they came to the main hall. Then, I met Zhao Wende, the monarch of the dynasty.

Zhao Wende was wearing a bright yellow dragon robe, a long black beard hung down on his chest, he had a kind face, and under the wide dragon robe, he couldn't see how his body was, but he wasn't too fat, and he wasn't too thin. He sat upright on the dragon chair, his back was straight, and his hands were on both sides of the dragon chair, quite majestic.

"Meet the Emperor. The tributes bent down and saluted.

Zhao Wende's robe waved: "Zhongqing is flat." ”

Then, the test papers were distributed, and the tribute students were in place to answer the questions. Time passed little by little, and the white paper was filled with black letters. In the entire hall, there was silence.

Gradually, an hour passed, and someone came to put away the test papers, and the ministers hurriedly revised them, and from time to time they exchanged words and sometimes argued.

After a long time, all the test papers were corrected, and the ministers handed over the top ten test papers to Zhao Wende. Zhao Wende looked at them one by one, and when he saw the three words of Chu Junwen, the corners of his mouth hooked upward.

......

On the day of the release of the list, Li Wenwen deliberately asked for leave, and the family accompanied Chu Junwen to wait anxiously. Chu Junwen didn't go to the place where the list was released, just because Li Wenwen was afraid that he would be robbed of being a son-in-law, anyway, after the ranking came out, someone came to beat the gong and drum to congratulate him.

The sound of gongs and drums kept ringing in the distance. Even though they knew that they would pass the palace exam, the family still couldn't help but feel anxious.

Time, little by little, never comes. Chu Junwen's hands began to tremble, the announcement of this ranking was from back to front, and the longer he waited, the higher the ranking.

When the fourth place in the top two came out, Chu Junwen couldn't sit still, he stood up and walked back and forth.

Finally, someone came with gongs and drums: "Chu Junwen, Lord Chu, which one is Lord Chu Junwen." ”

Chu Junwen let out a breath and walked out of the hall: "I'll just say." ”

Suddenly, a group of people rushed up with a flattering smile on their faces: "Congratulations to Master Chu for high school Tanhua, Jinshi and ......."

Chu Junwen heard a buzzing sound, his brain was empty, and he stayed on the spot. He only felt that the sounds around him were noisy, and as they faded away, an inexplicable feeling came to his heart. Suddenly, tears welled up in her eyes, and what my sister never forgot before she died was to study by herself, and now, there is finally a result.

Li Wenwen was overjoyed, and hurriedly took out the winning money to reward everyone, and when he was happy, he also grabbed a large handful of copper coins and scattered them outside the courtyard, laughing.

On the other side of the river, Ghost Cry looked at the noisy courtyard opposite, and the smile on his face became brighter and brighter.

"Big brother ghost, is that him?" Cai Wei looked at Chu Junwen, who was surrounded by a crowd on the other side, and turned her head sideways and said, "He looks so stupid." ”

Ghost Cry rubbed Caiwei's head: "Come with me and prepare some gifts." ”

"What kind of gifts?"

"My brother-in-law's wedding gift. ”
