Chapter 5: Down the Mountain(1/2)
Life is developing and the empire is advancing.
Ever since Xiao Yao surrendered to the empire and received very good treatment, other time-travelers have gradually revealed their identities to the empire.
Like Xiao Yao, some of them traveled through time with golden fingers, but even if they all have golden fingers, some are strong and some are weak, some are useful and some are not of much use to the empire.
However, more time-travelers do not have golden fingers. They have nothing special except the memories of their previous lives. Even so, the empire does not treat them badly.
As long as you show your identity to the empire and prove that you are indeed a time traveler, you will have a life without worries about food and drink.
As long as you don't violate Qin law, you can still get the treatment of an ordinary middle-class person. Even if you don't know anything, the court will raise you up and let you live the rest of your life in peace and contentment.
If you have a skill, that's even better. The Empire will work hard to train you into a talent. If you not only have a skill, but are also a genius and work hard, that's even better.
For specific details, please refer to Yun Ye. Yun Ye is one of the best time travelers nowadays, even if you include those guys with golden fingers.
The time-travelers either continue to work hard, or work hard in their own way. In this world, they are not the only ones who are working hard, and they are not the only ones who are struggling. No one from hundreds of schools of thought or civil and military officials is willing to be abandoned by the times before the advent of this great era.
!
Zhongnan Mountain, a place with beautiful scenery and quiet scenery, Bei Mingzi came here early today and waited quietly.
This is the place where the young disciple he just accepted a few years ago goes into seclusion. Today is also the time when the young disciple comes out of seclusion. This young disciple's qualifications, understanding, bone and will are all first-class existences.
She was born to become an ancient real person!
Under the setting sun, an old Taoist priest held a girl's hand, and their shadows stretched far apart. The old Taoist priest talked a lot along the way, and the girl remained silent most of the time, occasionally nodding to express understanding.
If anyone could hear the words of the old Taoist priest, they would definitely be surprised, because the information he dictated is the top secret to the outside world.
The world is about to recover!
The Reiki Tide is coming!
All the creatures in the world will undergo slight evolution in life level after such an experience. Some lucky people can even directly activate the innate magical powers that have been hidden in the body for countless years.
Your ancestor was a great witch, who was conferred by the leader of the human tribe at that time. He was good at controlling water. After generations, he disappeared from everyone. But after the spiritual energy tide, you awakened the magical power of your ancestors and became a genius!
Your ancestor was a wolf slayer who once fell in love with a white snake in disguise. The blood of the great demon white snake is hidden among the descendants. Huh? It turns out your family name is Xu...
"This spiritual energy tide is very important. According to the calculations of the Great Library, when the spiritual energy tide arrives, the longer you stay awake, the more your life level will improve!"
"If you can stay awake from the beginning to the end, then even if you are just an ordinary person, you can eventually achieve innateness, with all the meridians connected, and there will be no bottlenecks before innateness!"
"And if you can't hold on, although your life level will increase, the effect will definitely not be as good as the former. Some people even suspect that once you can't hold on, you may lose your mind and become a monster with no memory and emotions."
"But the last point is just a guess. What is certain is that in a place with sufficient spiritual energy, the more benefits it will bring to survive."
"For ordinary people, the opportunity to achieve innate talent is right in front of you, but for you, if you can go to Jiutian, persist in the area with the densest spiritual energy tide, and transform yourself, it will at least save you a lifetime in the future.
Hard work!"
When he heard Yijiazi, Xiaomeng, who had always been calm, finally blinked: "Master, what should I do now?"
Looking at the curious Xiaomeng, Bei Mingzi suddenly felt a little distressed. This young disciple was extremely talented, and the sect had extremely high expectations for her. She was only eight years old this year, and she had already opened up the sea of consciousness and became a master.
But it is precisely because of this that almost from the moment he was discovered by the Taoist sect, he has been cultivating him seriously. He does not eat the fireworks of the world, and has no playmates. Apart from practicing, he only reads books, and apart from reading books, he practices.
Now it seems that it is really over!
"Now, it's very simple. Just go down the mountain and take the imperial examination. The imperial examination is divided into three rounds. As long as you enter the third round..."
"What's it like down the mountain?"
"There is such a vast world at the foot of the mountain. There are countless people living there, as well as many of your peers. This time during the third round of interviews, you will definitely be able to meet many geniuses, and you will be able to make more friends by then.
A friend..."
In Zhongnan Mountain, Bei Mingzi took Xiaomeng, who had been in seclusion since the age of four, out of the mountain!
In Dongting Lake, Wanwan was holding a ten-year-old girl, her big hand holding her little hand. The two stood on the lake, quietly looking at the morning glow in the distance.
"The next step is to leave the mountain. You have to take part in the imperial examination. The first round of the imperial examination is of course not a problem..."
The difficulty of the first round of the imperial examination has remained unchanged for more than ten years!
This is one of the national policies of the empire!
Only in this way can all the savages be truly eliminated!
Because you only need to know the characters of Da Qin, and under the witness of everyone, swear an oath to the portrait or statue of Ying Zheng to become a Chinese!
The establishment of the Chinese people and the savage system was not to exploit the savages, and Da Qin did not look down on the productivity of the savages.
This system is transitional in nature, and its main purpose is to turn all the savages into Chinese citizens, so that the savages will continue to recognize the empire in the process.
Through their own efforts, they passed the first round of the imperial examination and obtained the status of Chinese citizens. The sense of gain and honor generated in the whole process directly made them die-hard loyalists of the empire!
No matter you are a legitimate son or a concubine, even an illegitimate son or even the son of a skilled maid or the son of a merchant, you can participate in the imperial examination. All living beings are equal under Qin law!
Participating in the imperial examination and becoming a Chinese citizen is a process of subtly changing your mind and becoming a spiritual Qin citizen.
Many people can see the purpose of this policy, but it is a conspiracy and there is nothing they can do about it!
Once you become a Chinese, the cohesion of the family will naturally slow down.
Which aristocratic family dares to openly instruct a noble countryman?
Therefore, those aristocratic families in the Tang Dynasty who tried to accumulate strength to make a comeback, occupy high positions in the court in peaceful times, and continue to develop their families all failed!
As for Mingkong, Wanwan found Mingkong from a family that was not clear-headed, and then accepted him as a disciple. It has been seven years since he came to Daqin!
"Okay!" Finally, ten-year-old Mingkong nodded seriously.
On a certain mountain peak in the south, Master Feixuan passed the Flying Wing Sword to her twelve-year-old disciple. She discovered this disciple from another world. That world was the Ming Dynasty. The current emperor's reign was Hongwu, which had just ended.
Troubled times.
Faced with this situation, the advice given by the Expedition Division is to infiltrate first. As for conquest in a short period of time, not considering it is not that it cannot be defeated but that it is useless. It is a pity to abandon it if it is tasteless.
The empire has long seen the brainwashing ability of Confucianism. They are really good at brainwashing. Even if the empire conquers such a world, it will be impossible to incorporate it into the empire without two or three generations of development and without letting all the older generations die of old age.
territorial.
Confucianism’s brainwashing ability is too strong and its poison is endless! They successfully downgraded the tiger and wolf people into wild boars, then into wild dogs, then downgraded into domestic pigs, and then downgraded into rabbits!
Although the Expedition Division does not plan to conquer that world immediately, the necessary infiltration work is still necessary, and this disciple is Cihang Jingzhai who was smuggled by Master Feixuan into that world. After conquering it, he was found among a large number of younger girls.
of.
That year was still seven years ago. At that time, this girl had just joined Jingzhai. Among hundreds of girls, Shi Feixuan fell in love with her at a glance!
"Today is the day you come down from the mountain, and this flying-wing sword will be passed on to you."
…
Times have changed, this is the sentiment of many people!
Fifteen years ago, there were very few literate people. Anyone who was literate was considered a talent, and anyone who was literate could serve as a minor official. Although they were at the lowest level, and although many minor officials remained in the ninth rank throughout their lives, they were always
Stronger than ordinary people.
But now, even if you pass the first round of assessment, you still can't be a minor official!
Nowadays, even the minions under the Pavilion Chief responsible for arresting people and maintaining local order still need to continue to be assessed. On the basis of passing the first round of the imperial examination, there is also a public assessment of military force. Only those who pass can take office.
If you are a small official in the county government, you will need to take a written test again during the recruitment process to test your math skills and even your physical fitness...
Being literate these days is worthless! Illiterate people are the minority!
Even for many junior officials with good positions, people who have passed the second round of the imperial examination come to compete! For example, the scribe in the Prime Minister's Mansion is responsible for organizing documents and checking for typos...
Xianyang
When the second round of the imperial examination began, a large number of scholars who had qualified for the examination came here through various means. Those who had the conditions to find a house to live in, while those who did not have the conditions to live in small single rooms prepared by the court outside the city.
Unlike the first round of exams, the difficulty of this second round of exams increases every year.
At the beginning, you only need to memorize the Qin method and you will pass the exam!
Nowadays, it is not only necessary to memorize, but also to understand. Sometimes, if you want to get a high score, you have to read all the imperial edicts issued by the imperial court for more than ten years and understand the purpose behind them.
Not only do you need to understand the laws of Qin, but you also need to understand the way the court behaves, understand the purpose of the court's actions, and have an overall view!
For ordinary people, passing the exam is becoming more and more difficult, but for geniuses, it is just like that.
Today is the day when the second round begins. Fusu, as Little Sun, came to the examination room numbered 1. Here he saw many young geniuses, all of whom were not very old.
The youngest was only eight years old. She was a girl. Although her face was expressionless, she looked very cute. She only glanced at Fusu and then turned to look at others, recalling the girl's information in her mind.
Although this girl is the youngest, her cultivation is extremely amazing and she is a leading figure in the next generation of Taoism.
when!
After the first bell rang, the teachers came in with the test papers.
when!
After the second bell rang, the test papers began to be distributed.
Picking up the test paper in his hand, Fusu began to review the questions.
The exam lasts for one hour and the number of questions is three hundred.
It’s not necessary to finish them all. It’s almost impossible to finish such a large amount of questions if you haven’t practiced at all!
To be continued...
