After distributing children's uniforms, Xu Kai and Huang Tu returned to their homes.
The two lived very close to each other, so Xu Kai could see a large number of people gathered around Huang Tu's door, each holding a heavy gift in his hand and smiling flatteringly.
This is natural. The weight of children in Tianyan Continent is not the same as that of children in previous lives. Children in Tianyan Continent are already cultivators. They are different from ordinary people and do not have to pay taxes or participate in corvee labor. You must know that this is a privilege that only scholars in previous lives had. If you join the army and gain meritorious service by killing enemies, it is not impossible to become an official.
According to past experience, the top ten children in the examination have a high probability of being admitted as a scholar, and they are also expected to become a scholar. Naturally, many people come to please the pornographic figure.
In comparison, Xu Kai's door was deserted. Only one or two people hesitated, gave some gifts, bowed and left.
The literacy rate in Tianyan Continent is quite high. Now the whole county knows how "inferior" Xu Kai's two-question A-level answer sheet is. Many people suspect that there is something shady in it, thinking that Xu Kai, a child born The title will be taken away quickly, and he may even be demoted and punished, so most people are eager to stay away from Xu Kai.
Xu Kai didn't pay attention and was about to start making today's dinner.
Suddenly someone called the door: "Open it and come out!"
Xu Kai came in response.
The visitor, Xu Kai, had the impression that he was the one who failed the exam today, but his results were quite high. It was said that if he advanced one more, he could become a child student.
If this was the case, he would naturally be the most resentful towards Xu Kai.
He held a piece of paper with Xu Kai's answer to the second question written on it: "Can this nonsense thing you wrote become a child? I advise you to destroy your literary power, lest you be punished by the saint and your bones will be wiped out!"
The results of scientific examination fraud are extremely serious, and what he said is not an exaggeration.
Xu Kai said calmly: "I remember your name is Yan He, right?"
"Um?"
"What do you think is wrong with what I wrote?"
Yan He was furious: "There is no literary science, no citations from scriptures, and it is even written in vernacular. How can your answer be worthy of the top grade? The content is also completely wrong!"
"What I'm talking about is the content. Which of the three points I made do you think is wrong?"
Yan He was stunned, looked at Xu Kai's answer, thought for a moment, and then said: "Look at the first one, 'Objects always remain at rest or in a straight line at a constant speed when they are not affected by external forces or balanced forces. "State of Motion', force is the key to supporting the movement of objects. Without force, how can objects move?"
Xu Kairan, it seems that the natural science of this world is still in the Aristotelian stage, so he took out a bowl and put it on the table. With a slight force, the bowl slid from one side of the table to the other: "The bowl is here I didn't touch it when it was sliding on the table, so how could I support its movement? There was some friction on the table, but that was to prevent the bowl from sliding, so how could I support its movement?"
Yan He was stunned and looked at the bowl on the table. He racked his brains but couldn't think of anything to refute, so Xu Kai continued: "You may have thrown things out of anger in your life. Those things left Your hand is also moving, how do you provide it with force?"
"Objects have the property of maintaining their original state of motion. I call it inertia. The sliding of the bowl and the things you throw actually rely on inertia to continue moving... No, in fact, the things you throw have gravity. Function...forget it, that thing is too complicated, I'll talk about it later when I have the opportunity, you just need to remember what I said before." Xu Kai shook his head and continued to prepare his dinner.
"Then the second and third..."
Xu Kai turned around and continued to explain to Yan He.
Yan He has been studying scriptures since he was born, and has little understanding of natural science. Some fixed thinking is difficult to change. Sometimes he frowns in confusion, and sometimes yells "nonsense" at Xu Kai, but Xu Kai always thinks that The other party explained carefully.
To a certain extent, Tianyan Continent, which has a cultivation system, does not actually need these things, but there are many practitioners and more ordinary people. Popularizing scientific knowledge may be helpful, so Xu Kai will not take the initiative to make it public at the moment. Classes are open, but if anyone asks a question, he is willing to explain it to them.
Yes, Yan He, who was looking for trouble, had become a student in his eyes.
After finally finishing speaking, Yan He went back in a daze. He felt as if he had opened a new door, but nothing seemed to have been opened.
At this time, Huang Tu came to Xu Kai's house with wine and meat. He looked at the back of Yan He, frowned slightly, and asked, "He came to trouble you?"
Xu Kai shook his head: "Just studying. Have you finished dealing with those people?"
"Oh, stop talking, it's so troublesome! Today we are both admitted to the Tongsheng Examination. It's a great joy. Let's have a drink together!" He walked into Xu Kai's house.
Xu Kai reluctantly prepared dinner for two people.
Xu Kai doesn't like drinking, but the alcohol drunk by ordinary people in Tianyan Continent is very low, similar to the glutinous rice in previous lives. Only those practitioners have high-alcohol alcohol, so Xu Kai also drank several large glasses without any trace of alcohol. Drunk.
However, Huang Tu's face was slightly red and he was already a bit drunk. He asked Xu Kai: "Tell me everything. Did your kid cheat this time?"
Xu Kai couldn't laugh or cry: "How many times have I said it, you also know that the Tongsheng Examination is solely judged by the Tianyi Ranking. In the history of Tianyan Continent, there have been cases of fraud in the government examinations, college examinations, joint examinations and even the palace examinations, but there has been no fraud in the Tongsheng Examination. If something goes wrong, am I going to start making history?"
Huang Tu shook his head: "Then explain to me what the bullshit you wrote is."
Xu Kai said seriously: "You are a bit drunk now. I tell you that you can't remember it. Let's wait until you wake up."
Huang Tu was unhappy, and his mood suddenly disappeared, and his drunkenness disappeared on the spot: "You can say it now."
Xu Kai explained seriously, Huang Tu studied seriously, and finally sighed: "I didn't expect that such ordinary things can also be extraordinary. What you wrote seems a bit counter-intuitive and counter-common sense, but in actual testing If you do, you will find that what you wrote is actually true."
After finishing speaking, he took another sip of wine: "But it's just some weird skills after all, it can't be considered a great way."
Xu Kai didn't say anything. The views formed by the Tianyan Continent’s history of one hundred thousand years cannot be overturned by just Newton’s three laws. So he ate the food silently.
"Good explanation." A voice sounded from behind the two of them.
The two were startled and quickly turned around, only to see the county magistrate behind them. The two of them saluted quickly.
The county magistrate said calmly: "There is no need to be polite. I didn't expect that what you wrote actually made sense. But as your friend said, what you wrote is just a fictitious trick and cannot be regarded as a great guide. You will still have to do it in the future. The best thing to do is to read more books by sages. Your first question is really well written. You can’t write it without reading the scriptures. Don’t waste your time on these trivial things.”
Xu Kai lowered his head and saluted, without retorting, but just asked: "I wonder what the county magistrate is here for?"
The county magistrate took out a letter and said: "You are a child born in two questions that has not been seen in Dali for a hundred years. You are a little talented in Shangyang County."
"It's the top one in Class A," Xu Kai corrected.
"..."
Huang Tu wanted to slap himself, but why didn't he cover this guy's mouth?
The county magistrate coughed slightly and then said: "I wrote a letter of recommendation for you, and you can use it to study at my National Academy of Sciences in Dingzhou."
The two of them were shocked. The State Academy was a place where at least the top-ranked scholars could go. How could a young boy be allowed to go there?
Xu Kai took the letter and looked a little suspicious.
The county magistrate explained his doubts: "I know what you are thinking. Of course, I, a mere county magistrate, do not have the qualifications to recommend a child to study in the state academy, but there is a big shot who appreciates your talents, and the seal on the letter is that Your private seal, with this you can pass through the state and state courts without any hindrance."
Xu Kairan.
Since the county magistrate doesn't intend to say who the big shot is, he won't get an answer even if he asks, so it's better not to ask.
He put away the letter and studied it for a while, then suddenly said: "Can I take Huang Tu with me?"
As soon as these words came out, not only the county magistrate himself was stunned, but Huang Tu was also shocked.
The county magistrate was silent for a while, closed his eyes, and answered after a long while: "Yes."
Huang Tu felt like his heart was about to stop.
Xu Kai suddenly said: "I don't have travel expenses."
Huang Tu was so anxious that he wanted to give Xu Kailai a slap in the face. How glorious it was for Tong Sheng to go to the State Council, but he actually put forward conditions?
The county magistrate took a deep breath and thought to himself, is this the person that the big shot values? If an ordinary child received such an honor, he would have to go bankrupt to raise the traveling expenses to the State Council, yet he actually dared to ask for it.
But that's generally not the case. Children who can go to the state college to study are the best among people, and others are eager to stick to them and give them gifts.
He was about to scold Xu Kai, but he heard a voice in his ear, which made him tremble. Finally, he silently took out a banknote from his pocket.
"This is five hundred taels of silver, enough for you two to go to the State Council."
Xu Kai took the bank note without changing his expression and said, "Thank you, sir. Huang Tu and I will set off soon."
The magistrate left without saying a word.
Xu Kai pointed the banknote at the light of the candle and looked at it carefully.
Huang Tu slapped him on the back of the head angrily: "Come on, what the county magistrate gave you, can it still be fake?"
After that, he scratched the back of his head and said with some embarrassment: "But... you are willing to take me to the State Council. Thank you very much."
"I need a servant to bring tea and water."
"roll."
"Then don't go."
"Brother Kai, I was wrong. I'll pour the wine for you."
After filling up the wine, the two clinked glasses and drank another glass. Xu Kai suddenly said: "We will leave the day after tomorrow."
Huang Tu asked in confusion: "Why are you leaving in such a hurry?"
Even though it was a great honor to go to the State Academy, Xu Kai left too quickly.
Xu Kai pointed at the broken threshold at Huang Tu's door: "If you don't leave early, I guess the threshold of my house will be the same as yours the day after tomorrow."
The yellow picture is clear. Fraud in scientific examinations is such a serious matter. Every time it happens, a saint personally examines it, and this "fraud" is just a trivial matter like a child test. If Xu Kai is still safe after a day, then his two questions I'm afraid the answer sheet on A has no inside story, and I'm afraid there will be more people trying to please you than myself.
Xu Kai drank the wine in one gulp again: "The threshold is too expensive, I can't afford to change it."
