I slay demons and demons with poetry

Chapter 185 Planning to Return Home
It was another bright sunny day, and the newly promoted talents in the prefecture school ushered in their first martial arts exam.

At this moment, the entire martial arts training ground has been cleared out, and many scholars, children, scholars and scholars are sitting around one end of the training ground, watching dozens of scholars below arrange to stand in their positions.

Today's martial arts class was originally not very large, but these few days Fan Tixue has been beaten like chicken blood. He has been more diligent in training this group of new talents, and even requires all talents within three years to participate in this class. Second martial arts test.

"Oh, I don't know what Master Tixue is going to do. It took me two days to write a literary exam in one day, and my three writing brushes were useless. Now it's alright. I think the martial arts class will also be tiring. half dead."

"Brother Zu Hai, what you said is too easy, I'm afraid it will hurt your muscles and bones."

Among the many talents lined up in the arena, Kong Zongzheng and the few people beside him complained.

Kong Zong was originally the kind of person he knew well, and he spoke and acted very kindly. During the two months in the government school, he got to know all the scholars in the government school.

Song Mu was also standing in the team at the moment, but the expression on his face was much more relaxed.

The incident of the day before yesterday has been deeply buried in Song Mu's heart now, but Fan Tixue is a little more motivated, thinking that Jizhou Fuxue can work harder, which makes everyone exhausted.

Today, Song Mu only needs to take the two subjects of archery, archery and horse riding. For other competitions, because Song Mu is still injured, his literary strength cannot be mobilized, so he can only give up.

"Jing Zhao, don't be too pushy later, you must have passed the martial arts test this time."

At this time, Kong Zong turned around and spoke to Song Mu, with some consolation in his words.

Thinking about it, I thought that Song Mu would also want to win the martial arts test, and maybe he would do some impulsive things at that time.

Song Mu naturally smiled and nodded when he heard it. In fact, he was still the same, and he never had any strong thoughts of competing for fame and fortune.

What's more, now that my physical condition is here, if I mess up, it will be me who will be harmed.

"Zu Hai, you don't have to worry about me, but you have to work harder today to get a top three in the exam."

Song Mu said to Kong Zong with a smile, and Kong Zong was also very happy to agree at the moment.

Soon Fan Tixue and a group of instructors arrived at the martial arts arena, and the atmosphere in the arena was even more lively at this moment.

There is no pre-match incentive, only the threat of the consequences of failing to pass the exam, which has already made the players on the field a little more worried and struggling from nowhere.

Soon the first exam officially started, the six arts of a gentleman, and the two subjects of archery are naturally at the forefront.

In fact, it is the simplest archery on horseback.

Although the Wen Dynasty already had something as miraculous as literary power, literati under Jinshi could not fly to the sky and escape from the ground, and the tools for long-distance travel were still horses.

Even in the army formation, there are many heavy armored cavalry, but the horses used already have a bit of demon blood, and are taller and more powerful.

At this moment, Song Mu stepped onto a big maroon horse. This is a horse raised by the government school, called "Red Mane Horse". It has only a very weak trace of monster blood in its body, and it is relatively gentle and strong.

The ten scholars mounted their horses one after another, holding longbows in each hand, and took out papers from one side pocket.

Of course, Song Mu couldn't use his writing power, so he could only use a barrel of wooden arrows at the moment.

This is actually a common phenomenon in the military. After all, one is a scholar, and writing power is also extremely precious. An arrow condensed by writing alone requires a huge amount of writing power.

The arrows released by ordinary archers are mostly added with the power of literati poetry to achieve lethality.

After everyone finished their preparations, under the order of an instructor, everyone rode forward one after another, looking at the sky in front of them.

Soon, there were a few scholars on both sides of the field who were holding archery targets one by one, and threw them fiercely into the air.

Everyone mobilized Wen Li to draw the bow, and Song Mu immediately put on the arrow, and with sharp eyes, he shot the arrow directly at one of the archery targets.

The wooden arrow directly pierced the target, Song Mu smiled slightly, and the scholars around him made even bigger noises.

I saw them let go one by one, and the arrows transformed into the rays of light hit the targets directly into fly ash, which immediately attracted applause from the crowd watching the battle.

Song Mu didn't feel anything about it, he just rode his horse forward, and there were many targets in the sky again, and everyone raised their bows and arrows.

Song Mu was still one step ahead, two arrows passed through a target at the same time, and hit the bull's-eye precisely and beautifully.

The archery test is to release [-] arrows at the tenth target delivery, and then calculate the score according to the degree of completion and hit rate.

Song Mu ran back and forth on the horse, and the fifteen arrows also hit the bull's-eye smoothly.

In this way, today's exam is completed.

Jumping off the horse, Kong Zong also started to prepare for the exam, looked at Song Mu and said with a smile.

"Brother Song, your shooting ability is really colorful."

Song Mu arched his hands, with a bit of embarrassment on his face.

"Brother Zu Hai is serious. I don't need literary skills. Arrows are easy to control, so it's still taking advantage of everyone."

Kong Zong obviously disapproved of this, while Song Mu stepped forward and patted him on the shoulder and said,

"Brother Zu Hai, then I'll go and rest on the side, let's see what you can do."

"Look at it!"

Kong Zong got on his horse confidently, greeted Song Mu, and immediately took out his longbow.

Song Mu smiled and retreated to the other side, then ran to the auditorium next to him.

After saying hello to several familiar scholar classmates, Song Mu walked forward, and finally found Tao Fengming's place among the crowd, and sat down next to him.

"Master, why are you here today?"

This was just when Song Mu was in the game, he accidentally caught a glimpse of Tao Fengming also coming here.

"It's sunny here, so it's comfortable to bask in."

Tao Fengming said calmly, holding a teapot in his hand, and chewing the dried venison in his mouth.

Having said that, Tao Fengming looked at Song Mu for a while, and then spoke again.

"Remember to take a look at your articles in the past few days, don't slack off."

Song Mu also nodded when he heard that. Before he was out hunting, Song Mu seized every opportunity to be alone with Tao Fengming to ask for advice, but after he came back, he was somewhat slack.

However, Song Mu has also written a few articles in the past few days, and is planning to find Tao Fengming for advice sometime.

Tao Fengming's complexion seems to be a little bit better now, maybe because he recovered well, or maybe because he didn't show any discomfort.

There were bursts of exclamations in the arena at this moment. Kong Zong and the others were hitting each target with Wenli arrows, and those children and Confucian scholars kept cheering.

For them, this is the most interesting activity they can see when they are studying hard in government schools.

Song Mu glanced at Xie Jiaguo who was standing in front of him cheering, and immediately looked away, then turned to look at Tao Fengming next to him, and said softly.

"Master, next month will be the first month, do you have a place to go?"

Tao Fengming paused, looked over, Song Mu immediately understood, and said with a smile.

"Master, if you don't mind, come back to Shiyang County with me, so that you can test and teach me a lot of articles."

Tao Fengming looked at Song Mu and thought for a moment, let out a breath, and then said something lightly.

"I don't like being interrupted."

"No one will bother you."
