Zhao Ping did not expect that although he passed the exam, he was a preparatory student in the Tianjia class.

This Tianjia class is simply a pit, and a big pit at that!

The deadline was three days later, and Zhao Ping had to go to the library to find time to check out books, and even read while eating!

"I don't usually burn incense, I just do it temporarily. What's the use?"

Every time Wang Zihe saw Zhao Ping and saw him running towards the library in a hurry, he couldn't help but look sarcastic and said happily.

The announcement date has finally arrived!

After the third day, Zhao Ping was the last one to hand over the gift to Yuan Tao.

On the contrary, Wang Zihe was the first to submit the article. Seeing that Zhao Ping was the last to submit the article, the sarcasm on Wang Zihe's face became even more intense.

After five days of selection by Fuzi, Zhixue, Xuezheng, etc., while the county school students were waiting hard, the results of the first county school Futi Competition were finally announced.

Zhao Ping did not go to the public announcement booth to watch the results. He really didn't burn incense and was just improvising.

By looking up the past writing styles of Fu and the local annals of Changzhou and Changyuan, Zhao Ping finished it in a hurry, so he felt uncertain and waited for the judge of fate in the lecture hall.

Zhao Ping opened the book, sat down and was about to read aloud while shaking his head. Wang Ziyi, Tao Ran, and Li Hanshu came in. The three of them looked at each other and then at Zhao Ping, who was about to open the book and read, and couldn't help but smile bitterly.

Tao Ran looked at Zhao Ping and asked, "Don't you want to know the result?"

Wang Ziyi also stared at Zhao Ping and asked, "My cousin has already challenged you. Are you not afraid of being demoted to Class A if you lose?"

Zhao Ping closed the book with a smile, saluted with both hands, looked at the three of them and said with a smile: "Thank you three seniors for telling me!"

The three of them looked at each other, and Tao Ran couldn't help but asked in surprise: "Brother Yu didn't tell you the result, how do you know you won?"

Zhao Ping looked in the direction of the public notice booth outside the lecture hall window and said, "If I lose, you will definitely not sue me in this tone."

Tao Ran looked at Zhao Ping carefully and said, "Sure enough, hard work pays off. Seeing that the wise brother has been checking books in the library, why is the foolish brother worried about the wise brother? I didn't expect that the junior brother is actually very confident."

Zhao Ping smiled bitterly, shook his hands, glanced around and then looked at the three of them sincerely and said: "You three dear brothers, please don't put gold on my little brother's face. To tell the truth, I just don't have confidence in myself, so I don't have any confidence in the public announcement booth." Dare to watch.”

Tao Ran and Wang Ziyi looked at each other again, with surprised expressions on their faces, and then Li Hanshu said, "Brother, guess what rank you are in?"

Zhao Ping shook his head, then pondered for a while and said: "My grades may not be ideal. I may have just beaten the prince and one head, otherwise I may fall into the first grade."

Tao Ran laughed loudly, pointed at Zhao Ping, turned to look at Wang Ziyi and said, "This good brother is really too humble. I wonder if he would be ranked first?"

Zhao Ping was so stunned that he stood up from his seat, held Tao Ran's hand with both hands, and asked loudly: "Is this true?"

After saying this, I felt embarrassed and hurriedly saluted Tao Ran and Wang Ziyi and said, "Thank you two dear friends for telling me. It seems that I also want to congratulate you two. Three dear friends are also on the list."

Wang Ziyi and Tao Ran looked embarrassed, looked at each other, and Wang Ziyi said: "Brother Yu, the three of us are lucky enough to be on the list, but one is third, and the other is fourth and fifth."

Zhao Ping hurriedly saluted and congratulated, and then asked curiously: "Which one is second?"

Wang Ziyi looked in the direction of the public notice booth outside, and then replied calmly: "Of course it's my cousin."

Suddenly the voices of the prince and several other students came from outside: "The ranking is unfair, the ranking is unfair! Make the test papers public, make the test papers public."

Then the voice walked towards Xuelu's office. Amid Zhao Ping's surprise, Wang Ziyi and Tao Ran smiled bitterly and shook their heads.

The next day, Zhao Ping passed by the public notice booth and heard Li Hanshu reading in a measured tone:

"The land of Tianfu, an important town in the southwest, has a state named Chang. It connects to Chengdu on the top and Chongqing on the bottom. It has infinite glory. Cut off the beauty of Bashan Mountain, cut off the aura of Shu, and write an article about Changzhou. Take the essence and condense it into Changyuan. Emperor Huang. The begonias are slowly blooming, and Bashu is uniquely fragrant; the orchid is in full bloom, and it has been fragrant for a long time after leaving the tree. Beside the crying child river, the beach turns to look at the mother; the evil dragon goes to the sea, slowly entering the Sichuan River. Fish swim in the shallow bottom, herons fly across the sky, and farmers are busy ; There are clumps of green bamboos and curling smoke, it is heaven on earth. Some men are handsome, some are girls, some are well-read, and some are old and healthy. The future is like the sea, and the days ahead are long."

When Zhao Ping heard it, wasn't this "Chang Yuan Fu" written by himself?

Tao Ran and Wang Ziyi saw Zhao Ping coming and saluted together to congratulate Zhao Ping!

Wang Ziyi couldn't help but sigh: "Brother Xian's Changyuan Fu is indeed extraordinary. Before your Fu was announced, Brother Yu was still not convinced. Now it seems that Brother Xian is much better than Brother Yu." Zhao Ping hurriedly said no after returning the gift. dare.

Tao Ran also shook his head and recited it again, stroking his hands and sighing: "The whole Fu is full of spiritual energy, from the beginning to the end, in one go, without any stagnation in the middle, and it is very catchy. It combines Changyuan's topographic features, humanistic scenery, and folklore When everything is integrated into one, it is really a rare masterpiece. My dear brother, I heard that your poems are also full of spirituality. With the word "Wanghaichao" last time, you are really one of the three outstanding poets in the county school. ah."

Zhao Ping kept saying he didn't dare, but suddenly he heard a "bang" and something fell to the ground.

At this time, I heard someone shouting: "Someone has fainted. Call the doctor quickly."

Tao Ran hurriedly looked in the direction of the sound and looked at the fallen man. He couldn't help but frown and said, "It's too hot today. Someone fainted." Zhao Ping couldn't help but wonder that it was only the second month of Yangchun in the lunar calendar and the weather was so hot. Where's the heat? Zhao Ping was short in stature, and the people who fell to the ground were surrounded by people. It was unclear who fell to the ground.

Suddenly someone shouted: "Isn't this Prince Kazuo of Class A, Yitian? Report the academic record quickly."

Immediately, someone rushed towards the direction of the professor, Xueru, and Xuezhenggongfang.

The next day, Zhao Ping came to the lecture hall and found that there was an extra person at the back of the lecture hall. It was the thousand-year-old Wang Zihe. He was sitting in the back with a pale face. When he saw Zhao Ping's eyes, he turned and looked out the window.

Zhao Ping couldn't help but turn his head and look at Tianjia Class Chief Tao Ran. Tao Ran smiled brightly and said, "What's so strange about this? It's not related to my virtuous brother."

Zhao Ping looked at Wang Zihe, then looked back at Tao Ran, closed the book and asked strangely: "It's actually related to me, I'm really puzzled."

Tao Ran also looked at Li Hanshu and Wang Ziyi, then looked back at Zhao Ping, and said, "Because in this competition with you, Wang Zihe came in second and is already qualified to enter the Tianjia class."

Zhao Ping nodded, feeling that although Wang Zihe was defeated by him, he met a person like himself who had traveled through time. He was indeed not weak in strength, but yesterday he fainted on the ground because he was not as good as him. Apparently he was too narrow-minded.

Despite this, Zhao Ping and the others came to the prince and the new classmate and saluted to express their congratulations. The prince and the new classmate returned the salute with some embarrassment.

At this time, Wang Ziyi came over quietly to Zhao Ping and Tao Ran, pointed in the direction of the public notice booth, and then asked the three of them: "There is something new coming out of the public notice booth today, what do you think it is?"

Zhao Ping and Tao Ran looked at each other, then shook their heads together, saluted Wang Ziyi and said, "I don't know yet, but I hope Brother Xian will let me know."

Wang Ziyi laughed loudly while returning the gift, and said with some excitement: "The county school has announced the contents of the planned engraving."

Tao Ran suddenly stood up, saluted Wang Ziyi hurriedly and asked, "I hope my dear brother will tell me."

Wang Ziyi laughed again, looked at Zhao Ping and Tao Ran, and then said, "I and four others are on the list."

Zhao Ping, Wang Ziyi and Tao Ran saluted each other and congratulated each other.

Wang Ziyi took a deep look at Zhao Ping, then looked at Tao Ran, and then said: "As expected, brother Xian's poems and poems are all on the list, but what I don't understand is that brother Xian is on the list. Poems about shops as so-called advertisements also made the list.”

Tao Ran looked at Zhao Ping and then Wang Ziyi and asked, "Let Brother Yu guess, is it the one that says 'The Golden Crow has fallen for thousands of years and is hiding underground to refine immortality. Burn yourself to give warmth and leave light to shine on the world'." This A poem?"

Seeing Wang Ziyi nodding, Tao Ran immediately recalled the scene when he saw the poem, smiled brightly, and said: "When Brother Yu saw this poem, the first two sentences were indeed plain and straightforward, but the last two sentences were really surprising. It feels like the entire poetic mood has suddenly been elevated."

Zhao Ping hurriedly said he didn't dare, saying that he thought this poem was simple and straightforward, and obviously not as good as other poems.

Wang Ziyi then looked at Tao Ran, and then at Zhao Ping, and couldn't help but smile bitterly and said: "The two of us each have two poems, and brother Xian is as good as two brothers. Brother Xian must be a treat." Zhao Ping I couldn't refuse, so I had to agree.

There is also a restaurant on North Street called Yuchun Restaurant, which is the best restaurant in Changyuan County. After the morning lectures were completed, Zhao Ping, Tao Ran, Wang Ziyi, and Li Hanshu went to the private room on the second floor of the restaurant. The window of the private room faced North Street, and the signboard of Zhao's workshop was faintly visible in the distance. The four of them sat down for a long time, no one paying attention.

Tao Ran shouted for a long time, and finally a waiter slowly came over and stood in front of the door, squinting at the four little kids. Tao Ran was furious and slapped the table with his hand. The waiter was startled and finally brought the menu casually.

Waved to Zhao Ping, Zhao Ping reluctantly put down one tael of silver on the table. The waiter immediately had a smile on his face and came to wait on the three of them.

Tao Ran looked at Zhao Ping bitterly, then pointed to the menu and said to Zhao Ping: "This is a rare opportunity. Brother Yu is going to kill you so hard today." After that, he ordered fried crab, seabass meat, and shrimp and fish belly. The best signature dishes are soup, scallion eggplant, roasted frog (BBQ frog), fried eel and so on.

Since it is a signature dish, it will take some time to be served. The four of them looked at the scenery on the street outside and pointed at the street.

Suddenly, I heard a roar coming from the private room next door: "Gungun, get out of here. With all your noise, you still want to sing here. Is so-and-so blind?"

Then a gentle and sweet voice came from both sides: "I'm telling you, the slaves, my father and I haven't eaten for a day. Please let the slaves finish singing this song."

Then there was another laughing voice: "You're a piece of shit, I don't want this kind of noise that disturbs your mood, even if you give it to me for free. If you hear me, get out of here." After that, there was a sound of smashing. the sound of.

This voice sounded familiar to Zhao Ping, and he couldn't help but look at Tao Ran and Wang Ziyi.
