Fulu Rubik's Cube

Chapter 24
Zhang Ke received the notice that three days later, on the tenth day of the sixth lunar month, there will be a Taoist examination in the "Da Yan Xue Gong".

More than 500 trial disciples.

In the end, only 800 people were notified by Dao Kao, and half of them were men and women.

After gathering the disciples of the Wuzi Daoist Academy, it was found that out of nearly 70 people who were tried, only 30 people got the chance to take the Daoist Examination.

Others can only turn the door or return to the world to live this life.

In the hall on the ground floor of the "Dayan Academy Palace".

Eight hundred disciples who were preparing for the Taoist examination waited energetically.

The Taoist Exam is divided into two parts.

The first is the interview test. The things you prepare must be able to impress the judges.

It seems simple, but it is not.

The Daoist tradition of Xiantian Qizong has been passed down for an unknown number of years.

As a disciple of a Taoist school, how many subjects can a real person prepare for.

Zhang Ke's disadvantage is here.

Generally speaking, being able to enter the Taoist temple is a kind of screening in itself.

After hundreds of years of hard work, the Zhang Ke family had the opportunity to send their children to the Taoist temple.

Ordinary people, unless they are special geniuses, will be admitted directly by the mountain gate.

For example, those who have awakened supernatural powers in the secular world, or those with special abilities.

More than five members of Zhang Ke's family entered the Taoist temple this year.

Two of them belonged to the direct line, so they had done family research early on to prepare for the Daoist interview.

This is allowed.

The other three, including Zhang Ke, could only find a breakthrough by themselves.

This is also the reason why Zhang Ke's troubles are rarely dealt with by his family.

But there is no injustice in the family in other respects, and there is never a shortage of monthly or otherwise.

There is also no mandatory requirement for Zhang Ke and others to obey the instructions of the direct line.

So Zhang Ke never complained.

Also developed an independent, self-reliant, self-disciplined character.

The Daoist interview test will wipe out half of the people.

Only those who pass the interview can proceed to the second item:
"Building the foundation!"

This is something no one can help, only yourself.

Many outstanding disciples among the outer disciples fell at this step.

If the foundation building fails, then some incomplete magical powers may be realized.

Such as Lin Chaohe's night eye technique.

Seeing that there are fewer and fewer Taoist test disciples ahead.

From time to time, some disciples teleported out and collapsed to the point of crying loudly.

The atmosphere in the hall became a little tense.

Someone yelled, "Next batch!"

Zhang Ke swallowed, pushed the things in his hands and walked towards the mirror door on the ground floor.

Many disciples are like this, and found that there is an extra mirror door.

The difference from other mirror doors is that the frame of this extra mirror door is red.

Zhang Ke took a long breath and stepped into the mirror door.

With one dark and one light in front of his eyes, he entered the single-story building that was added every four years.

At the door of the ten rooms, there are black-clothed deacon disciples from the Chasing Wind Terrace as guides.

Zhang Ke followed the instructions and entered a room, which was about a hundred square meters.

Without any decoration, windows are opened on both sides.

Three real people sat cross-legged side by side, with a long table in front of them.

Zhang Ke walked up to the three real people and saluted.

The three real people on the opposite side have never seen each other before. Two men and one woman have unique looks.

The female crown in the center is wearing a Taoist robe, but it is extremely close-fitting, which undoubtedly highlights the exquisite figure of the woman.

There is a black pattern tattoo on the left forehead of the face, the lips are painted with red, and the eyes are flowing like water. The Taoist name is "Furong", and he majors in beast control.

The real person "Flying Thunder" on the left has a talisman that is unmatched in the sect.

He has a rough face, a broad face and round eyes, and his beard is spread out like needles, like a hedgehog with fried hair.

The real person on the right is even more unusual, with ears hanging down to the shoulders.

Two long white eyebrows drooped to the cheeks, and three white beards drooped down.

With a ruddy complexion, a smiling face, very festive, a magician with a Taoist name of "Fuyao".

"Name?"

"Tiangan Daoyuan Wu Ziyuan Zhang Ke!"

"You can start your self-report!"

Zhang Ke looked at the real person on the stage flipping through the files, and understood that he was looking for his own files.

For this day, he prepared a lot.

Master Furong giggled, and said seriously, "Zhang Ke of the Heavenly Stems Wuzi Taoist Academy! Now start your self-report!"

Zhang Ke first saluted deeply.

Turn around and open one of the two items brought behind him, revealing a white drawing board.

Zhang Ke cleared his throat and said, "What I said today will definitely change the world in the future, and the three real people will definitely witness this miracle!!"

Master Fuyao and the other three could not help but take a long breath of air.

The disciple in front of him is probably waiting for another pitfall, and today's matter is not good.

I am afraid that in the future, instead of witnessing a miracle, I will be nailed to the pillar of shame.

The three real people watched anxiously.

Zhang Ke approached and said, "How much do the three real people know about time?"

Master Fuyao stroked his beard and said, "What do you mean?"

"Disciple would like to ask what time is it?"

Fuyao real person looked up at the sunlight coming in from the window.

After guessing, he said, "It's probably almost noon!!"

Zhang Ke smiled slightly, took out four small sticks, and set up one.

He explained: "I'm going to locate the true north first, and then find the east, and use the length of the stick's shadow to determine the current time!"

After speaking, do it yourself and find the vertical line to locate the true north.

According to the length of the shadow, the approximate time is estimated with the naked eye:
"It's about 2 quarters of an hour at noon!"

After speaking, Zhang Ke came to operate behind the object that was still covered.

There was a sound of clockwork, and there was a rhythmic "clank" sound.

Zhang Ke returned to his original position, holding a long and thin wooden stick in his left hand.

He also took out some small rectangular iron blocks like building blocks, the size of a thumb, with depressions on the back of the iron blocks.

Zhang Ke first attached the thin iron wire to the drawing board, because there is a magnet behind the drawing board, the iron wire can be firmly adsorbed.

After finishing everything, Zhang Ke turned to face the three real people and said:
"What time is it?"

"Time is a phenomenon that goes on and on!"

"For individuals, time begins to run as soon as each of us opens our eyes after birth!"

"So, what do we know about time?"

Zhang Ke asked a question, but he didn't want the three real people to answer.

Just lead by asking questions.

Daoist Fei Lei said impatiently: "Mother-in-law, please keep it simple!"

Zhang Ke smiled wryly and said, "If you want to clarify this matter, it's really not an easy matter!"

Pointing to the drawing board and saying:
"Time moves forward forever, but" Zhang Ke emphasized:

"In my opinion, time can be controlled!!"
