Warlock Toxic General Please Control Yourself
Chapter 120 Can't afford to support idlers, nor will I support idlers!
Chapter 120 Can't afford to support idlers, nor will I support idlers!
"What do you mean?" he asked, frowning.
"That means," Ji Ziqi's smile was faintly provocative, "We can't support idlers, nor will we support idlers!"
Now Li Yuan finally understands what she meant, isn't it just mocking him as an idler?
"Well, Ah Da and Ah Er are also idlers, let them leave with me!"
"How can Ah Da and Ah Er be idlers? They can work a lot, definitely much more than they can eat!"
Ji Ziqi's smile remained unchanged, and his tone remained unchanged, "And, if the student remembers correctly, Ah Da Ah Er is now my man, right?
Since it's mine, I'll judge whether it's idle or not! "
"You!" Li Yuan was once again blocked by her speechless.
The anger in his chest was burning, and the dignity of the royal family told him that he should turn around proudly at this time, throw his sleeves and walk away.
But the stomach that had just been filled, used the slightly swollen feeling to remind him nakedly that dignity is nothing when he is hungry!
Li Yuan forcibly suppressed the anger in his heart, stared fiercely at Ji Ziqi, and asked word by word: "Then why don't you count as an idler?"
Count your wits!Ji Ziqi hummed in his heart, for a young master like you who stretches out his clothes and mouth, the best way to torture is physical torture.
Ji Ziqi picked up an empty bucket and said with a smile, "My lord, yesterday's water has been used up, please go and help fill the bamboo tube water delivery device!"
Ah Er on the side finally couldn't hold it anymore, and shouted loudly: "Presumptuous! Do you know that my master..."
Li Yuan reached out his hand to stop what Ah Er wanted to say.
At this moment, revealing his identity would only embarrass him more.
Ji Ziqi tortured Li Yuan with the idea that those who don't know are innocent, so he would not take the initiative to ask.
She stuffed the bucket into Ah Er, "A Er, take your former master and teach him well!"
Then he smiled at Li Yuan and said: "My lord, everyone here works very consciously, I hope you will do the same, my lord!"
Ah Er, who originally wanted to secretly work for his master, gave Ji Ziqi a bitter look.
The master is so proud, and your words are so clear, it is obvious that you are forcing the master to do it yourself.
If you find out the identity of the master in the future, you will definitely regret what you said and did today!
If it is said that among this group of people, apart from Li Yuan, the one who has the biggest opinion on Ji Ziqi is Ah Er.
Of course, his opinion of her was mainly due to her disrespect for her master.
Sure enough, as Ji Ziqi expected, even though no one was watching Li Yuan, despite Ah Er's persuasion, he insisted on doing it himself.
The wooden barrel is not heavy when filled with water, but the notch of the bamboo tube is not big, so when pouring water into it, you must grasp the weight.
Otherwise, you will be half-tired and only fall a little bit, or you will fall so hard that the excess water will overflow and wet your clothes.
From the very beginning, Li Yuan obviously belonged to the latter.
After seeing Ah Er demonstrating a bucket of water, he forcibly took the wooden bucket in his hand, picked up a bucket of water, and poured it directly into the bamboo slot.
"Be careful!" Ah Er looked at his strength and exclaimed in alarm.
It's a pity that it was still slow, the water poured in was too strong, and the excess water immediately splashed out, wet a large area of Li Yuan's clothes.
In the winter morning, when the cold wind blows from the mountains and rivers, the dampness immediately melted into Li Yuan's body, bringing with it the pain of the cold.
For the first time, Li Yuan knew that the cold feeling in his bones was pain.
Seeing this, Ah Er stretched out his hand to take the wooden barrel in his hand.
The pride in Li Yuan's bones did not allow him to admit defeat so easily.
He avoided Ah Er's outstretched hand, picked up another bucket of water, and began to pour water into it.
Bucket after bucket, slowly, Li Yuan finally learned to control his strength.
Seeing the water flowing down the bamboo trough without leaking, a happy smile appeared on his face, an innocent smile like a child.
Ah Er looked at his master's smile in a daze, and couldn't help worrying secretly: Master, master, this can't be, is there something wrong with his brain?
Ji Ziqi looked at the water flowing from the bamboo trough to the wooden bucket here, slow and fast, and knew that Li Yuan really did it himself.
To be honest, this really made her look a little different.
This eldest young master is a bit domineering, but his nature is pure.
Of course, these two points of admiration are not enough for Ji Ziqi to treat Li Yuan preferentially.
After lunch, he was asked to go up the mountain with the students who went up the mountain to dig sweet potatoes.
This time Li Yuan did not express any objection, silently took the simple tools she handed over, and followed those students up the mountain.
-
In the palace, His Majesty the Emperor, who had just received the news from the spies about the status of the third question of the four academies in the spell contest, couldn't help opening his mouth after seeing the last content clearly.
His best son, Li Yuan, actually joined the ranks of those students and went up the mountain to work together?
His Majesty the Emperor could hardly believe his eyes.
The progress of this exam was sent to the palace almost every two days.
This time is the fourth time I have received the message.
The last time it was sent back was about Ah Er destroying the bamboo tube water delivery device privately at night.
The last time it was reported was that Ji Xiaoxue of the Qilin Academy used spells in the strength challenge, defeated Li Yuan, and kept Ah Da Ah Er.
Because of the specific description and explanation of the simple trebuchet in the news, His Majesty the Emperor immediately summoned the Ministry of Industry and the Minister of the Ministry of War to discuss it.
The two agreed excitedly that the feasibility is very high, and it can be mass-produced and put into the military. However, it is best to have the person who provides this solution present to guide, which can save a lot of time for exploration.
Hearing this, His Majesty the Emperor almost wanted to end the exam for the third question ahead of schedule. If it wasn't for the dissuasion from Master Meng and Lord Hubu Shangshu Lin, it might have really ended here.
It's been nearly a year, and the frontlines and borders have all ceased fighting, and the war will start after March next year.
His Majesty the Emperor calmed down a little, and then canceled his impulsive proposal just now.
Indeed, the present is important, and so is the future of Li Guo.
This group of students showed strong adaptability and flexibility in the first two questions of the math competition!
And a group of people who have never lived alone, in the test of survival in the wilderness, only panicked for a while and then quickly calmed down.
Start to plan your future life in an orderly manner, and move towards the direction you set step by step.
If there is more time to temper, this group of people will definitely become the pillars of the Li country in the future.
His Majesty the Emperor thought that the news that came back last time was enough to shock him, but he did not expect that this time would be the real shock.
He handed the thin note in his hand to the nearby Master Meng.
Master Meng took it for a closer look, and suddenly cold sweat broke out on his forehead.
This girl, Ji Ziqi, is a bit more courageous, how dare the eldest prince play tricks?
He stole a glance at His Majesty the Emperor, and His Majesty's face showed no joy or anger.
Master Meng quickly lowered his eyelids, thinking about how to speak kind words to plead for mercy for that bold girl.
After reading the contents of the note, Lord Shangshu Lin of the Household Department opened his mouth to plead for Ji Ziqi's favor, "Your Majesty, this classmate Ji Xiaoxue offended His Highness the First Prince unintentionally.
As the saying goes, those who don't know are not guilty, please Your Majesty be extra merciful, don't blame her! "
Master Meng glanced at him in surprise, this old man Lin has always been upright and rigid, the most serious and cautious, when did he become so reckless?
How could such an excellent great-granddaughter not protect her?
Mr. Lin couldn't hide his embarrassment in his heart, wishing to expose the fact that Ji Xiaoxue was his great-granddaughter on the spot!
He really endured the extreme pain!It's like the pain of a person who owns a peerless treasure, who can only secretly hide it and appreciate it alone, but cannot share it with others!
His Majesty the Emperor also looked at Lord Lin in surprise, but his thoughts at this moment were still in the shock of Li Yuan's uphill work, and he couldn't be relieved!
Speaking of the tradition of the Li Kingdom Palace, it is somewhat peculiar.
The first emperor of the Li Kingdom was founded about 200 years ago. The previous emperors had too many outstanding sons but could not unite them, so they continued to fight among themselves, causing the whole country to be torn apart and the flames of war continued.
It was by chance that the first emperor got the benefit of a fisherman and ascended to the throne.
After the founding of the People's Republic of China, he absorbed the main reason for the collapse of the previous dynasty, and set such a rule for his descendants: the first prince must be born 25 years after the current emperor, and must be the queen;
If the empress does not give birth within three years, only other concubines are allowed to give birth to the eldest prince; the second prince must be five years apart from the first prince.
There are advantages and disadvantages to doing this, the advantage is to avoid the confrontation between father and son and brothers in order to fight for the throne;
The disadvantage is that if any emperor dies young unfortunately, and the prince is too young, the power will fall to the side.
The emperor who established this rule thought over and over again, and thought that if an emperor dies young, it must be that the power of the Li country is exhausted, and there is no one to blame!
Therefore, in spite of the objections of the ministers in the court and the central government, he insisted on setting up this imperial order that will never be changed by future generations!
Maybe it was just like what the emperor said, God didn't want the Li Kingdom to break up prematurely. In the past 200 years, the earliest emperor who died was also over [-] years old.
And because the age difference between the emperor and the princes, and between the princes, there was no major internal battle in the palace that affected the fate of the Li country. Of course, open and secret fights in private are still inevitable.
But on the whole, compared to the past dynasties and neighboring countries, the Li Kingdom Palace is considered a strange existence among the palaces.
Since about 100 years ago, that is, when Jushu was just vigorously promoted, due to constant friction with neighboring countries, there have been endless battles on the border every year.
At that time, the emperor of Li State made an order for every eldest prince to enter the army for five years.
However, this emperor's order was not fully implemented, and one or two of His Majesty's predecessors did not go to the army for training due to health or other reasons.
So when the current Empress disagreed with life and death to let Li Yuan go to the army for training, His Majesty the Emperor had no choice but to agree.
This queen is good at everything, knowledgeable, dignified, generous, decent, and gentle, she deserves to be a model of the mother of a country.
The only shortcoming is that she pampers her two children, Li Yuan and Zhang Zhu, like all the most ordinary and ordinary mothers in the world!
Fortunately, the two children, apart from being a little more arrogant, have turned out very well, which made him very satisfied!
Li Yuan is twenty years old this year, which is not too young for ordinary people, but for the royal family, there is at least ten years of room for growth.
Whether ten years is long or short, opportunities come and go, and this is indeed a good opportunity to get rid of his arrogance.
His Majesty the Emperor considered for a while, and decided to let Li Yuan stay among the students and continue to work as a farmer.
But this news must not let the empress know, when she knew that Li Yuan was going to be the invigilator and took the group of students on a long journey, the empress had been making trouble for a long time.
If it wasn't for Li Yuan's own insistence, this matter might not be settled like this.
If the Queen knew about this news, she would immediately send someone to bring Li Yuan back to the palace.
So His Majesty the Emperor ordered to block this news, and before it is over, it is absolutely not allowed to leak the slightest bit!Otherwise, there will be severe punishment!
The unlucky Li Yuan didn't know that he was being tricked by his own father.
In addition to practicing riding and archery since he was a child, he also practiced boxing and kicking kung fu, but it was all for strengthening his body, and he was vulnerable compared to the masters.
Li Yuan was not interested in Kungfu, His Majesty the Emperor himself was good at Kung Fu because he had experienced it in the army, but his son was not interested, and he did not force it.
So Li Yuan didn't care about having spies around him.
Ah Da and Ah Er discovered it early in the morning, but when the secret agent took out the emperor's imperial order and warned them not to speak too much, the two remained silent in unison.
Li Yuan, who lowered his posture, quickly adapted to his current life.
The hard work during the day allowed him to eat well and sleep soundly. The sweet potatoes he dug out and the water he scooped up from the river were a hundred times more delicious than the previous delicacies.
If it weren't for the woman Ji Ziqi by his side, Li Yuan would often give birth to the occasional self-sufficiency with his own hands, and it would be pretty good to live such a life.
However, because of the existence of Ji Ziqi, there is always a thorn-like existence in this kind of comfort, like a fishbone stuck in the throat, which is always a bit uncomfortable.
Li Yuan silently counted the days in his heart, and in about ten days, the Ministry of Household Affairs will send people to come, and they can go back.
On this evening when Li Yuan was counting the days to go back, something happened.
Luo Shu, who was in charge of teaching arithmetic to the children in Xicun, came back with his clothes torn and wounds all over his body.
Another student who was with him did not come back with him.
Everyone was shocked and went forward to ask what happened.
The corner of Luo Shu's mouth was injured, and his speech was a little awkward. After a brief treatment, he roughly explained the ins and outs of the matter.
"Xicun and Chenjiacun, which is not far from Xicun, had a dispute over the land.
There is a mountain forest where two families have agreed to divide the two villages equally for decades. However, different lands in the mountains and forests can be measured, and it is still impossible to determine which one is divided equally.
The two villages refused to give in to each other, so they fought for decades.
Two days ago, the hunters in the two villages went hunting, and because of a rabbit, they had a conflict. At that time, there were many people in the West Village, and they won the dispute.
Today the whole village of Chenjia Village mobilized and surrounded the entire West Village, vowing to divide the mountain forest into two halves according to their method, but the West Village disagreed, so the two villages fought.
Yun Liu was trapped inside and couldn't get out. I happened to be outside at the time, so I ran back to report.
When I was about to come back, I ran into people from Chenjia Village. Fortunately, people from Xi Village protected me and only suffered minor injuries.
The person from the West Village who was protecting me at the time said that the two villages had been fighting each other for decades, and everyone was used to it. Bleeding and injuries were inevitable, but no one would die.
But if you want to go out from the village, I'm afraid it will take some time.
He told me not to worry about Yunliu's safety, the villagers in the village would protect him and prevent Chencun people from hurting him.
When the Chinese New Year is approaching in a few days, the people of Chenjia Village will disperse, and then Yun Liu will be able to come out. "
"How can it be done?" The other five students of Yunshang Academy were unwilling. "Having never killed anyone before, doesn't mean it won't happen this time. Putting Yun Liu there, we won't be at ease!"
"We also hope to rescue Yun Liu," the student of Xuanwu College said, "but we only have about 300 people, and a village has at least [-] to [-] people. How can we fight against them and rescue Yun Liu?"
"You are afraid of death, you dare not go, I will go!" the student of Yunshang Academy choked.
That Xuanwu student got angry, "Is that what I mean? What I mean is that the other party has a lot of people, and we have few people. We have to think long-term and don't act rashly!"
"Okay, stop arguing!" Young Master Tang shouted, "Yun Liu is one of us, we must find a way to rescue him no matter what.
Now the focus is on discussing ways, not fighting with each other! "
The two quarreling classmates snorted at each other and looked away.
Ji Ziqi looked at Ah Da Ah Er.
Ah Dao: "Before Ah Er and I learned martial arts, the master who taught us once talked about the way of martial arts.
One of them is: People who learn martial arts must never rely on their own kung fu to attack unarmed ordinary people!
Even if it is justified, one must be humble, so as not to lose the severity of the attack and hurt the innocent!
This point, as a martial arts student, must not be violated, otherwise all martial arts students will be spurned! "
That is, they can only find a way to solve it by themselves.
Ji Ziqi faced the crowd and asked, "What can everyone do?"
The students of Yunshang Academy who were clamoring to rescue Yun Liu just now lowered their heads when Ji Ziqi's gaze swept over them.
Li Yuan also lowered his head unconsciously.
He has never dealt with this kind of rude countryman fighting.
In the process of helping his father handle some state affairs, there were occasional disputes between ministers. The father either used his status to coerce, or acted as a peacemaker.
The emperor's art that his father taught him is: balance and containment, to prevent the contradiction from expanding or completely resolved, so as to maintain the royal prestige forever.
But this strategy is obviously not suitable for the current situation.
Arriving at Qilin Academy, Luo Shu said, "I think the source of the struggle between the two families is the division of the forest.
If we can help them divide the forest, we should be able to resolve this dispute! "
"Yes, yes!" The other students who were inspired nodded in agreement, and began to chatter, "Master taught us how to divide the land and calculate it!
Tomorrow, we will use what we have learned to help them divide the mountains and forests and solve their problems, and they will definitely let Yun Liu go! "
"Yes, let's go back tonight and think about the calculation method!"
The students who were immersed in solving the practical problems of the villagers felt that what they had learned over the years had finally come in handy, and fell into a frenzy of thinking.
Seeing that everyone was deep in thought, Ji Ziqi was silent for a while, and finally said: "Then go back to rest tonight, and discuss it tomorrow morning!"
After the students from the other three academies left together, six people from Qilin Academy got together, including Li Yuan and Ah Da Ah Er who were laying the floor in the three-person house of Mr. Tang.
Wu Sanduo and Luo Shu were excitedly discussing which calculation method is more reasonable, while Cheng Qing and Jiang Jiatong also communicated in low voices.
Prince Tang looked at Ji Ziqi's expression coldly, and felt something was right, and asked tentatively, "Ziqi, do you have a good way to calculate?"
When he asked, Wu Sanduo and the others stopped discussing and looked at Ji Ziqi.
Ji Ziqi frowned slightly, "Do you think there are people in Xicun and Chenjiacun who know magic spells?"
"Probably not!" Luo Shu said, "Otherwise, we wouldn't be required to teach."
"Since no one understands spells, do you think this mountain forest has an actual size?"
A few people were stunned for a moment. Their calculation methods of spells are all based on the data. If there is nothing, how to calculate?
"Then how about we measure it ourselves?" Wu Sanduo said.
"Since no one understands arithmetic, who would believe that the data we measured is correct?" Ji Ziqi said, "Even if they believe that the data is correct, what about the calculation method?
How can I explain to them that this calculation is correct and must be fair? "
Li Yuan suddenly understood.
For example, when he was young, the master told him the strategy of governing the country. At that time, he had just finished primary school, so how could he understand the long speeches of the master?
But he knew it was good for him, so he memorized it by rote if he didn't understand it.
But the villagers they are facing now are not. They have no reason to believe the words of a group of outsiders.
Maybe they thought they were here to make trouble. When the time comes, the people of the two villages will join forces to deal with them, but there will really be no good fruit to eat.
Mr. Tang figured it out very quickly, followed by Wu Sanduo, Cheng Qing and others.
"Ziqi, do you have any good ideas?" Cheng Qing asked.
Ji Ziqi smiled wryly and said: "I only know that our current method won't work, but I haven't thought of the specific method yet!
Otherwise, we wouldn't have let everyone go to rest first, and discuss it tomorrow morning. "
Even Ji Ziqi, who has always been the most active mind, hadn't come up with a countermeasure, and they fell silent all of a sudden.
"Don't be discouraged, everyone! Don't we still have one night? Let go of your original thoughts, let go of your thinking, and you can always come up with a good idea!" Ji Ziqi comforted.
Now is really not the time to complain, Yun Liu is still trapped in the village, waiting for them to rescue him.
So the few people stopped talking and returned to their small room silently.
Tonight, everyone was lying in bed, unable to sleep, including Li Yuan, who was laying the floor, was also thinking about this problem.
I couldn't sleep, so I started chatting to pass the time, hoping that I might get some inspiration from the chat.
Ji Ziqi said: "Cheng Qing, Jiatong, if you can't fall asleep, why don't we talk! Anything is fine!"
"I can't think of anything right now, I just think about how to save Yunliu!" Jiang Jiatong said.
"Me too!" Cheng Qing said.
"Then let's think about it. Is there any way to distribute something that is simple and easy to understand, and a three-year-old child knows that this is the fairest?"
Jiang Jiatong said: "When I was young, I just asked for whatever I liked, and I asked for everything. My brothers and sisters all let me!"
Cheng Qing: "When I was young, I was very good at spells. When the two sisters wanted to let me go, I had to distinguish them clearly, and I didn't want to take advantage of the sisters because of my young age!"
One is domineering and the other is well-behaved.
Ji Ziqi was alone at home when he was a child, so why should he share with others?
"Then let's think about it from another angle. If there are a pile of red bean cakes and two children are vying for them and refuse to give in, how can we satisfy both children!"
"Each person takes one piece!" Jiang Jiatong said, "If there is one piece left in the end, it will be split in half, isn't it settled?"
Ji Ziqi and Cheng Qing looked at each other, and in the darkness, they could only see the light in their eyes.
Yes, one piece per person!
Then both hugged Jiang Jiatong, "Jiatong, you are so smart!"
Jiang Jiatong pushed the two away unbearably, "What are you doing? Although I am smart, how can I compare to the two of you?
I still have this self-knowledge.Moreover, what happened to you two? "
"I thought of a solution!" Ji Ziqi said with a smile.
"Really?" Jiang Jiatong said in surprise, "Quickly tell me!"
Cheng Qing clung to her ear and whispered the method Hao and Ji Ziqi had thought of.
"Wow! It seems that I'm really smart!" Jiang Jiatong couldn't help saying proudly after hearing this.
"Yes, yes, you are the smartest! It's getting late, go to sleep!"
Early the next morning, when Ji Ziqi was about to share his ideas from last night with everyone, a student from Xuanwu spoke up first, "I have a proposal, I want to say it first!"
Ji Ziqi nodded.
The student said: "We came to participate in the math competition this time, and originally thought that the competition was about solving professional math problems.
As a result, each of the three exam questions this year has nothing to do with the professional arithmetic answers we learned in the academy.
So I propose, this time, which college has the most accurate answer and the most ingenious solution to the division of mountains and forests, so what if that college wins? "
"Okay!" White Crane Academy echoed: "Our White Crane Academy recognizes Qilin Academy's outstanding performance in these three games.
But this time in the spell competition, there was no real spell competition, and we lost like this. The six of us are still a little bit dissatisfied! "
Yunshang Academy also agreed, "Our Yunshang Academy is the same, the winner of this spell competition must be Qilin Academy!
However, as students of the School of Mathematical Mathematics, we always compete in the number of spells, so we also agree that our four schools will use this question to decide in private! "
Ji Ziqi swallowed what he wanted to say.
She and Cheng Qingjiang Jiatong looked at each other, and then consulted Mr. Tang and the others with their eyes. Seeing that the five of them nodded silently, they agreed to the proposal made by Xuanwu Academy.
"Since everyone agrees with the proposal put forward by Xuanwu Academy, let's do it this way!"
Hearing that Qilin College also agreed, the faces of the students from the other three colleges all showed joy.
The competitive side of the young man was finally aroused at this moment.
No one mentioned the judge, no one mentioned how to judge winning or losing, in the more than a month since the integration of the four stores.
Everyone has a full understanding of each other's character, and they don't worry about anyone cheating!
The 23 people from the four colleges, except for Yunliu, had reached the West Village together with Li Yuan's Ah Da Ah Er.
The people of Chenjia Village still surrounded the entrance of Xicun Village and did not disperse.
The leader was a tall, dark-skinned man in his thirties.
The eyebrows are thick, and there is a trace of fortitude on the face due to the weather.
Seeing Ji Ziqi's group of people approaching, his eyes narrowed slightly, and he took precautions: "What are you doing? This road is temporarily blocked. If there is something urgent, please detour. If there is no urgent matter, we will go later!"
Mr. Tang stepped forward and cupped his hands: "Uncle, we have a friend who was trapped inside because of the incident between the two villages. The purpose of coming here this time is to bring that friend out."
The man and the people around him quickly became alert, "Are you the helpers that Xicun invited back?"
"No, Uncle, you misunderstood!" Mr. Tang said, "We are just passing by here temporarily, and we need to stay here for a while for some reason.
But the food was limited, so there were two people in this village who exchanged food for the condition of teaching the children in the village to read or write.
It won't be long before I leave!Uncle, please help me! "
The man looked everyone up and down. Although the clothes in front of the group were simple, they all had extraordinary appearances, and it was hard to hide their aura of wealth!
That man is considered knowledgeable, and these people don't seem to be very old, and their physiques are not too strong, and there are a few weak ladies.
He frowned, and said to Young Master Tang: "You guys wait here first, I'll ask the village chief for instructions!"
After a while, a thin old man came up behind him. As the man walked, the old man said: "The village chief, this is the group of people!"
The old man was about sixty years old, and his height clearly only reached the man's shoulders, but the man hunched over in front of him, bowing his head, as cautious as a child, and as obedient and docile as a student listening to his master's reprimand.
As he got closer, he could see a pair of kind and quiet eyes of the old man, which were cloudy but exuded a light of wisdom.
His ordinary and wrinkled old face has a light of wisdom that cannot be ignored. It seems that he can find the answer to everything in this world.
No one expected that there was such a person of grace hidden in this remote place.
He couldn't help but straighten his body, just like facing the master or the dean in the academy, he couldn't help showing respect.
The old man smiled and looked at the crowd, "I heard from Xiong Da that you have friends in there?"
"I've met the village head!" Mr. Tang and the others saluted respectfully, "Yes, please let the village head do the trick!"
"Are you the students who participated in the math competition this year?" the old man continued to ask with a smile.
Everyone was taken aback.The government has never announced the matter of the spell contest to the public, so why would this old man outside the wilderness know about it?
The old man seemed to understand their doubts, "There is no impenetrable wall in the world.
The government will not take the initiative to announce the matter of the spell contest, but it will slowly spread among the people over time.
This place is not far from the capital, and the news will spread faster. The old man happened to be in the town a few days ago and heard some rumors.
The ages and numbers of you all happened to be the same, and all of you have extraordinary manners, so the old man tried to guess, but the old man was right! "
After the old man finished speaking, he showed a knowing smile again.
"The students didn't hide it intentionally, please don't blame the village chief!" Since he was recognized by the other party, Mr. Tang did not deny it, "Since the village chief already knows our identity, please do me a favor, and the trapped Let the students inside come out!"
"Now that I know, the old man will arrange for him to be released!" The old man's eyes flicked over everyone's faces one by one.
Because of the old age, those eyes were already cloudy, but the people who were swept away still felt a trace of invisible sharpness.
"However, you waited for more than [-] people to come here, presumably not just to rescue that student?"
This old man is so sharp!Ji Ziqi praised in his heart.
"I don't know what the village chief's words mean?" Mr. Tang was secretly startled, but his expression remained unchanged.
"There are more than twenty of you who are unarmed, and there are a few young ladies who are not allowed to declare their identities because of the rules of the spell contest exam!
It's not so stupid that you want to snatch people from hundreds of villagers, right?
Well, so many people came together for a student, they must have tried to rescue him in other ways! "
It seems that the folks are indeed hiding experts!Judging their next move from their movements alone.
Everyone can't help but be in awe!
Mr. Tang directly admitted their reason for coming, "As the village head said. The students thought that the two villages had a conflict because of the division of mountains and forests.
The students thought about using what they had learned to complete this matter for the two villages, and solved the root problem, and other things would be solved by themselves! "
As soon as Mr. Tang said this, all the students straightened up and looked at the old man, expecting to see the excited look on his face.
But to everyone's surprise, the old man's face was still very kind. Not only did he not see the slightest excitement, but he had an expression that everyone couldn't tell the difference.
The old man said: "I wonder how the students plan to use what they have learned?"
Mr. Tang said: "About the division of the field, the master of the college has taught it. As long as you know the specific size, you can get the result through precise calculation!"
"Where does the exact size come from?"
Although Mr. Tang had expected it earlier, he was still stunned, and the other students were also stunned, "Here, isn't there any specific size in the village?"
The old man said: "If not, what are you going to do?"
It is not easy for Mr. Tang to answer this question.
A Xuanwu student raised his hand and said, "If there is no size, let's measure it ourselves!"
"En." The old man nodded lightly, closed his eyes, seemed to be resting his mind, and seemed to be in deep thought.
After a long time, he opened his eyes and said: "The old man remembers that someone once measured the approximate size of the mountain forest.
It's just that it's been a long time, and I don't know if it's accurate or not.
How about students, how about calculating according to the data I remember? "
This is the best, and everyone is overjoyed.
(End of this chapter)
"What do you mean?" he asked, frowning.
"That means," Ji Ziqi's smile was faintly provocative, "We can't support idlers, nor will we support idlers!"
Now Li Yuan finally understands what she meant, isn't it just mocking him as an idler?
"Well, Ah Da and Ah Er are also idlers, let them leave with me!"
"How can Ah Da and Ah Er be idlers? They can work a lot, definitely much more than they can eat!"
Ji Ziqi's smile remained unchanged, and his tone remained unchanged, "And, if the student remembers correctly, Ah Da Ah Er is now my man, right?
Since it's mine, I'll judge whether it's idle or not! "
"You!" Li Yuan was once again blocked by her speechless.
The anger in his chest was burning, and the dignity of the royal family told him that he should turn around proudly at this time, throw his sleeves and walk away.
But the stomach that had just been filled, used the slightly swollen feeling to remind him nakedly that dignity is nothing when he is hungry!
Li Yuan forcibly suppressed the anger in his heart, stared fiercely at Ji Ziqi, and asked word by word: "Then why don't you count as an idler?"
Count your wits!Ji Ziqi hummed in his heart, for a young master like you who stretches out his clothes and mouth, the best way to torture is physical torture.
Ji Ziqi picked up an empty bucket and said with a smile, "My lord, yesterday's water has been used up, please go and help fill the bamboo tube water delivery device!"
Ah Er on the side finally couldn't hold it anymore, and shouted loudly: "Presumptuous! Do you know that my master..."
Li Yuan reached out his hand to stop what Ah Er wanted to say.
At this moment, revealing his identity would only embarrass him more.
Ji Ziqi tortured Li Yuan with the idea that those who don't know are innocent, so he would not take the initiative to ask.
She stuffed the bucket into Ah Er, "A Er, take your former master and teach him well!"
Then he smiled at Li Yuan and said: "My lord, everyone here works very consciously, I hope you will do the same, my lord!"
Ah Er, who originally wanted to secretly work for his master, gave Ji Ziqi a bitter look.
The master is so proud, and your words are so clear, it is obvious that you are forcing the master to do it yourself.
If you find out the identity of the master in the future, you will definitely regret what you said and did today!
If it is said that among this group of people, apart from Li Yuan, the one who has the biggest opinion on Ji Ziqi is Ah Er.
Of course, his opinion of her was mainly due to her disrespect for her master.
Sure enough, as Ji Ziqi expected, even though no one was watching Li Yuan, despite Ah Er's persuasion, he insisted on doing it himself.
The wooden barrel is not heavy when filled with water, but the notch of the bamboo tube is not big, so when pouring water into it, you must grasp the weight.
Otherwise, you will be half-tired and only fall a little bit, or you will fall so hard that the excess water will overflow and wet your clothes.
From the very beginning, Li Yuan obviously belonged to the latter.
After seeing Ah Er demonstrating a bucket of water, he forcibly took the wooden bucket in his hand, picked up a bucket of water, and poured it directly into the bamboo slot.
"Be careful!" Ah Er looked at his strength and exclaimed in alarm.
It's a pity that it was still slow, the water poured in was too strong, and the excess water immediately splashed out, wet a large area of Li Yuan's clothes.
In the winter morning, when the cold wind blows from the mountains and rivers, the dampness immediately melted into Li Yuan's body, bringing with it the pain of the cold.
For the first time, Li Yuan knew that the cold feeling in his bones was pain.
Seeing this, Ah Er stretched out his hand to take the wooden barrel in his hand.
The pride in Li Yuan's bones did not allow him to admit defeat so easily.
He avoided Ah Er's outstretched hand, picked up another bucket of water, and began to pour water into it.
Bucket after bucket, slowly, Li Yuan finally learned to control his strength.
Seeing the water flowing down the bamboo trough without leaking, a happy smile appeared on his face, an innocent smile like a child.
Ah Er looked at his master's smile in a daze, and couldn't help worrying secretly: Master, master, this can't be, is there something wrong with his brain?
Ji Ziqi looked at the water flowing from the bamboo trough to the wooden bucket here, slow and fast, and knew that Li Yuan really did it himself.
To be honest, this really made her look a little different.
This eldest young master is a bit domineering, but his nature is pure.
Of course, these two points of admiration are not enough for Ji Ziqi to treat Li Yuan preferentially.
After lunch, he was asked to go up the mountain with the students who went up the mountain to dig sweet potatoes.
This time Li Yuan did not express any objection, silently took the simple tools she handed over, and followed those students up the mountain.
-
In the palace, His Majesty the Emperor, who had just received the news from the spies about the status of the third question of the four academies in the spell contest, couldn't help opening his mouth after seeing the last content clearly.
His best son, Li Yuan, actually joined the ranks of those students and went up the mountain to work together?
His Majesty the Emperor could hardly believe his eyes.
The progress of this exam was sent to the palace almost every two days.
This time is the fourth time I have received the message.
The last time it was sent back was about Ah Er destroying the bamboo tube water delivery device privately at night.
The last time it was reported was that Ji Xiaoxue of the Qilin Academy used spells in the strength challenge, defeated Li Yuan, and kept Ah Da Ah Er.
Because of the specific description and explanation of the simple trebuchet in the news, His Majesty the Emperor immediately summoned the Ministry of Industry and the Minister of the Ministry of War to discuss it.
The two agreed excitedly that the feasibility is very high, and it can be mass-produced and put into the military. However, it is best to have the person who provides this solution present to guide, which can save a lot of time for exploration.
Hearing this, His Majesty the Emperor almost wanted to end the exam for the third question ahead of schedule. If it wasn't for the dissuasion from Master Meng and Lord Hubu Shangshu Lin, it might have really ended here.
It's been nearly a year, and the frontlines and borders have all ceased fighting, and the war will start after March next year.
His Majesty the Emperor calmed down a little, and then canceled his impulsive proposal just now.
Indeed, the present is important, and so is the future of Li Guo.
This group of students showed strong adaptability and flexibility in the first two questions of the math competition!
And a group of people who have never lived alone, in the test of survival in the wilderness, only panicked for a while and then quickly calmed down.
Start to plan your future life in an orderly manner, and move towards the direction you set step by step.
If there is more time to temper, this group of people will definitely become the pillars of the Li country in the future.
His Majesty the Emperor thought that the news that came back last time was enough to shock him, but he did not expect that this time would be the real shock.
He handed the thin note in his hand to the nearby Master Meng.
Master Meng took it for a closer look, and suddenly cold sweat broke out on his forehead.
This girl, Ji Ziqi, is a bit more courageous, how dare the eldest prince play tricks?
He stole a glance at His Majesty the Emperor, and His Majesty's face showed no joy or anger.
Master Meng quickly lowered his eyelids, thinking about how to speak kind words to plead for mercy for that bold girl.
After reading the contents of the note, Lord Shangshu Lin of the Household Department opened his mouth to plead for Ji Ziqi's favor, "Your Majesty, this classmate Ji Xiaoxue offended His Highness the First Prince unintentionally.
As the saying goes, those who don't know are not guilty, please Your Majesty be extra merciful, don't blame her! "
Master Meng glanced at him in surprise, this old man Lin has always been upright and rigid, the most serious and cautious, when did he become so reckless?
How could such an excellent great-granddaughter not protect her?
Mr. Lin couldn't hide his embarrassment in his heart, wishing to expose the fact that Ji Xiaoxue was his great-granddaughter on the spot!
He really endured the extreme pain!It's like the pain of a person who owns a peerless treasure, who can only secretly hide it and appreciate it alone, but cannot share it with others!
His Majesty the Emperor also looked at Lord Lin in surprise, but his thoughts at this moment were still in the shock of Li Yuan's uphill work, and he couldn't be relieved!
Speaking of the tradition of the Li Kingdom Palace, it is somewhat peculiar.
The first emperor of the Li Kingdom was founded about 200 years ago. The previous emperors had too many outstanding sons but could not unite them, so they continued to fight among themselves, causing the whole country to be torn apart and the flames of war continued.
It was by chance that the first emperor got the benefit of a fisherman and ascended to the throne.
After the founding of the People's Republic of China, he absorbed the main reason for the collapse of the previous dynasty, and set such a rule for his descendants: the first prince must be born 25 years after the current emperor, and must be the queen;
If the empress does not give birth within three years, only other concubines are allowed to give birth to the eldest prince; the second prince must be five years apart from the first prince.
There are advantages and disadvantages to doing this, the advantage is to avoid the confrontation between father and son and brothers in order to fight for the throne;
The disadvantage is that if any emperor dies young unfortunately, and the prince is too young, the power will fall to the side.
The emperor who established this rule thought over and over again, and thought that if an emperor dies young, it must be that the power of the Li country is exhausted, and there is no one to blame!
Therefore, in spite of the objections of the ministers in the court and the central government, he insisted on setting up this imperial order that will never be changed by future generations!
Maybe it was just like what the emperor said, God didn't want the Li Kingdom to break up prematurely. In the past 200 years, the earliest emperor who died was also over [-] years old.
And because the age difference between the emperor and the princes, and between the princes, there was no major internal battle in the palace that affected the fate of the Li country. Of course, open and secret fights in private are still inevitable.
But on the whole, compared to the past dynasties and neighboring countries, the Li Kingdom Palace is considered a strange existence among the palaces.
Since about 100 years ago, that is, when Jushu was just vigorously promoted, due to constant friction with neighboring countries, there have been endless battles on the border every year.
At that time, the emperor of Li State made an order for every eldest prince to enter the army for five years.
However, this emperor's order was not fully implemented, and one or two of His Majesty's predecessors did not go to the army for training due to health or other reasons.
So when the current Empress disagreed with life and death to let Li Yuan go to the army for training, His Majesty the Emperor had no choice but to agree.
This queen is good at everything, knowledgeable, dignified, generous, decent, and gentle, she deserves to be a model of the mother of a country.
The only shortcoming is that she pampers her two children, Li Yuan and Zhang Zhu, like all the most ordinary and ordinary mothers in the world!
Fortunately, the two children, apart from being a little more arrogant, have turned out very well, which made him very satisfied!
Li Yuan is twenty years old this year, which is not too young for ordinary people, but for the royal family, there is at least ten years of room for growth.
Whether ten years is long or short, opportunities come and go, and this is indeed a good opportunity to get rid of his arrogance.
His Majesty the Emperor considered for a while, and decided to let Li Yuan stay among the students and continue to work as a farmer.
But this news must not let the empress know, when she knew that Li Yuan was going to be the invigilator and took the group of students on a long journey, the empress had been making trouble for a long time.
If it wasn't for Li Yuan's own insistence, this matter might not be settled like this.
If the Queen knew about this news, she would immediately send someone to bring Li Yuan back to the palace.
So His Majesty the Emperor ordered to block this news, and before it is over, it is absolutely not allowed to leak the slightest bit!Otherwise, there will be severe punishment!
The unlucky Li Yuan didn't know that he was being tricked by his own father.
In addition to practicing riding and archery since he was a child, he also practiced boxing and kicking kung fu, but it was all for strengthening his body, and he was vulnerable compared to the masters.
Li Yuan was not interested in Kungfu, His Majesty the Emperor himself was good at Kung Fu because he had experienced it in the army, but his son was not interested, and he did not force it.
So Li Yuan didn't care about having spies around him.
Ah Da and Ah Er discovered it early in the morning, but when the secret agent took out the emperor's imperial order and warned them not to speak too much, the two remained silent in unison.
Li Yuan, who lowered his posture, quickly adapted to his current life.
The hard work during the day allowed him to eat well and sleep soundly. The sweet potatoes he dug out and the water he scooped up from the river were a hundred times more delicious than the previous delicacies.
If it weren't for the woman Ji Ziqi by his side, Li Yuan would often give birth to the occasional self-sufficiency with his own hands, and it would be pretty good to live such a life.
However, because of the existence of Ji Ziqi, there is always a thorn-like existence in this kind of comfort, like a fishbone stuck in the throat, which is always a bit uncomfortable.
Li Yuan silently counted the days in his heart, and in about ten days, the Ministry of Household Affairs will send people to come, and they can go back.
On this evening when Li Yuan was counting the days to go back, something happened.
Luo Shu, who was in charge of teaching arithmetic to the children in Xicun, came back with his clothes torn and wounds all over his body.
Another student who was with him did not come back with him.
Everyone was shocked and went forward to ask what happened.
The corner of Luo Shu's mouth was injured, and his speech was a little awkward. After a brief treatment, he roughly explained the ins and outs of the matter.
"Xicun and Chenjiacun, which is not far from Xicun, had a dispute over the land.
There is a mountain forest where two families have agreed to divide the two villages equally for decades. However, different lands in the mountains and forests can be measured, and it is still impossible to determine which one is divided equally.
The two villages refused to give in to each other, so they fought for decades.
Two days ago, the hunters in the two villages went hunting, and because of a rabbit, they had a conflict. At that time, there were many people in the West Village, and they won the dispute.
Today the whole village of Chenjia Village mobilized and surrounded the entire West Village, vowing to divide the mountain forest into two halves according to their method, but the West Village disagreed, so the two villages fought.
Yun Liu was trapped inside and couldn't get out. I happened to be outside at the time, so I ran back to report.
When I was about to come back, I ran into people from Chenjia Village. Fortunately, people from Xi Village protected me and only suffered minor injuries.
The person from the West Village who was protecting me at the time said that the two villages had been fighting each other for decades, and everyone was used to it. Bleeding and injuries were inevitable, but no one would die.
But if you want to go out from the village, I'm afraid it will take some time.
He told me not to worry about Yunliu's safety, the villagers in the village would protect him and prevent Chencun people from hurting him.
When the Chinese New Year is approaching in a few days, the people of Chenjia Village will disperse, and then Yun Liu will be able to come out. "
"How can it be done?" The other five students of Yunshang Academy were unwilling. "Having never killed anyone before, doesn't mean it won't happen this time. Putting Yun Liu there, we won't be at ease!"
"We also hope to rescue Yun Liu," the student of Xuanwu College said, "but we only have about 300 people, and a village has at least [-] to [-] people. How can we fight against them and rescue Yun Liu?"
"You are afraid of death, you dare not go, I will go!" the student of Yunshang Academy choked.
That Xuanwu student got angry, "Is that what I mean? What I mean is that the other party has a lot of people, and we have few people. We have to think long-term and don't act rashly!"
"Okay, stop arguing!" Young Master Tang shouted, "Yun Liu is one of us, we must find a way to rescue him no matter what.
Now the focus is on discussing ways, not fighting with each other! "
The two quarreling classmates snorted at each other and looked away.
Ji Ziqi looked at Ah Da Ah Er.
Ah Dao: "Before Ah Er and I learned martial arts, the master who taught us once talked about the way of martial arts.
One of them is: People who learn martial arts must never rely on their own kung fu to attack unarmed ordinary people!
Even if it is justified, one must be humble, so as not to lose the severity of the attack and hurt the innocent!
This point, as a martial arts student, must not be violated, otherwise all martial arts students will be spurned! "
That is, they can only find a way to solve it by themselves.
Ji Ziqi faced the crowd and asked, "What can everyone do?"
The students of Yunshang Academy who were clamoring to rescue Yun Liu just now lowered their heads when Ji Ziqi's gaze swept over them.
Li Yuan also lowered his head unconsciously.
He has never dealt with this kind of rude countryman fighting.
In the process of helping his father handle some state affairs, there were occasional disputes between ministers. The father either used his status to coerce, or acted as a peacemaker.
The emperor's art that his father taught him is: balance and containment, to prevent the contradiction from expanding or completely resolved, so as to maintain the royal prestige forever.
But this strategy is obviously not suitable for the current situation.
Arriving at Qilin Academy, Luo Shu said, "I think the source of the struggle between the two families is the division of the forest.
If we can help them divide the forest, we should be able to resolve this dispute! "
"Yes, yes!" The other students who were inspired nodded in agreement, and began to chatter, "Master taught us how to divide the land and calculate it!
Tomorrow, we will use what we have learned to help them divide the mountains and forests and solve their problems, and they will definitely let Yun Liu go! "
"Yes, let's go back tonight and think about the calculation method!"
The students who were immersed in solving the practical problems of the villagers felt that what they had learned over the years had finally come in handy, and fell into a frenzy of thinking.
Seeing that everyone was deep in thought, Ji Ziqi was silent for a while, and finally said: "Then go back to rest tonight, and discuss it tomorrow morning!"
After the students from the other three academies left together, six people from Qilin Academy got together, including Li Yuan and Ah Da Ah Er who were laying the floor in the three-person house of Mr. Tang.
Wu Sanduo and Luo Shu were excitedly discussing which calculation method is more reasonable, while Cheng Qing and Jiang Jiatong also communicated in low voices.
Prince Tang looked at Ji Ziqi's expression coldly, and felt something was right, and asked tentatively, "Ziqi, do you have a good way to calculate?"
When he asked, Wu Sanduo and the others stopped discussing and looked at Ji Ziqi.
Ji Ziqi frowned slightly, "Do you think there are people in Xicun and Chenjiacun who know magic spells?"
"Probably not!" Luo Shu said, "Otherwise, we wouldn't be required to teach."
"Since no one understands spells, do you think this mountain forest has an actual size?"
A few people were stunned for a moment. Their calculation methods of spells are all based on the data. If there is nothing, how to calculate?
"Then how about we measure it ourselves?" Wu Sanduo said.
"Since no one understands arithmetic, who would believe that the data we measured is correct?" Ji Ziqi said, "Even if they believe that the data is correct, what about the calculation method?
How can I explain to them that this calculation is correct and must be fair? "
Li Yuan suddenly understood.
For example, when he was young, the master told him the strategy of governing the country. At that time, he had just finished primary school, so how could he understand the long speeches of the master?
But he knew it was good for him, so he memorized it by rote if he didn't understand it.
But the villagers they are facing now are not. They have no reason to believe the words of a group of outsiders.
Maybe they thought they were here to make trouble. When the time comes, the people of the two villages will join forces to deal with them, but there will really be no good fruit to eat.
Mr. Tang figured it out very quickly, followed by Wu Sanduo, Cheng Qing and others.
"Ziqi, do you have any good ideas?" Cheng Qing asked.
Ji Ziqi smiled wryly and said: "I only know that our current method won't work, but I haven't thought of the specific method yet!
Otherwise, we wouldn't have let everyone go to rest first, and discuss it tomorrow morning. "
Even Ji Ziqi, who has always been the most active mind, hadn't come up with a countermeasure, and they fell silent all of a sudden.
"Don't be discouraged, everyone! Don't we still have one night? Let go of your original thoughts, let go of your thinking, and you can always come up with a good idea!" Ji Ziqi comforted.
Now is really not the time to complain, Yun Liu is still trapped in the village, waiting for them to rescue him.
So the few people stopped talking and returned to their small room silently.
Tonight, everyone was lying in bed, unable to sleep, including Li Yuan, who was laying the floor, was also thinking about this problem.
I couldn't sleep, so I started chatting to pass the time, hoping that I might get some inspiration from the chat.
Ji Ziqi said: "Cheng Qing, Jiatong, if you can't fall asleep, why don't we talk! Anything is fine!"
"I can't think of anything right now, I just think about how to save Yunliu!" Jiang Jiatong said.
"Me too!" Cheng Qing said.
"Then let's think about it. Is there any way to distribute something that is simple and easy to understand, and a three-year-old child knows that this is the fairest?"
Jiang Jiatong said: "When I was young, I just asked for whatever I liked, and I asked for everything. My brothers and sisters all let me!"
Cheng Qing: "When I was young, I was very good at spells. When the two sisters wanted to let me go, I had to distinguish them clearly, and I didn't want to take advantage of the sisters because of my young age!"
One is domineering and the other is well-behaved.
Ji Ziqi was alone at home when he was a child, so why should he share with others?
"Then let's think about it from another angle. If there are a pile of red bean cakes and two children are vying for them and refuse to give in, how can we satisfy both children!"
"Each person takes one piece!" Jiang Jiatong said, "If there is one piece left in the end, it will be split in half, isn't it settled?"
Ji Ziqi and Cheng Qing looked at each other, and in the darkness, they could only see the light in their eyes.
Yes, one piece per person!
Then both hugged Jiang Jiatong, "Jiatong, you are so smart!"
Jiang Jiatong pushed the two away unbearably, "What are you doing? Although I am smart, how can I compare to the two of you?
I still have this self-knowledge.Moreover, what happened to you two? "
"I thought of a solution!" Ji Ziqi said with a smile.
"Really?" Jiang Jiatong said in surprise, "Quickly tell me!"
Cheng Qing clung to her ear and whispered the method Hao and Ji Ziqi had thought of.
"Wow! It seems that I'm really smart!" Jiang Jiatong couldn't help saying proudly after hearing this.
"Yes, yes, you are the smartest! It's getting late, go to sleep!"
Early the next morning, when Ji Ziqi was about to share his ideas from last night with everyone, a student from Xuanwu spoke up first, "I have a proposal, I want to say it first!"
Ji Ziqi nodded.
The student said: "We came to participate in the math competition this time, and originally thought that the competition was about solving professional math problems.
As a result, each of the three exam questions this year has nothing to do with the professional arithmetic answers we learned in the academy.
So I propose, this time, which college has the most accurate answer and the most ingenious solution to the division of mountains and forests, so what if that college wins? "
"Okay!" White Crane Academy echoed: "Our White Crane Academy recognizes Qilin Academy's outstanding performance in these three games.
But this time in the spell competition, there was no real spell competition, and we lost like this. The six of us are still a little bit dissatisfied! "
Yunshang Academy also agreed, "Our Yunshang Academy is the same, the winner of this spell competition must be Qilin Academy!
However, as students of the School of Mathematical Mathematics, we always compete in the number of spells, so we also agree that our four schools will use this question to decide in private! "
Ji Ziqi swallowed what he wanted to say.
She and Cheng Qingjiang Jiatong looked at each other, and then consulted Mr. Tang and the others with their eyes. Seeing that the five of them nodded silently, they agreed to the proposal made by Xuanwu Academy.
"Since everyone agrees with the proposal put forward by Xuanwu Academy, let's do it this way!"
Hearing that Qilin College also agreed, the faces of the students from the other three colleges all showed joy.
The competitive side of the young man was finally aroused at this moment.
No one mentioned the judge, no one mentioned how to judge winning or losing, in the more than a month since the integration of the four stores.
Everyone has a full understanding of each other's character, and they don't worry about anyone cheating!
The 23 people from the four colleges, except for Yunliu, had reached the West Village together with Li Yuan's Ah Da Ah Er.
The people of Chenjia Village still surrounded the entrance of Xicun Village and did not disperse.
The leader was a tall, dark-skinned man in his thirties.
The eyebrows are thick, and there is a trace of fortitude on the face due to the weather.
Seeing Ji Ziqi's group of people approaching, his eyes narrowed slightly, and he took precautions: "What are you doing? This road is temporarily blocked. If there is something urgent, please detour. If there is no urgent matter, we will go later!"
Mr. Tang stepped forward and cupped his hands: "Uncle, we have a friend who was trapped inside because of the incident between the two villages. The purpose of coming here this time is to bring that friend out."
The man and the people around him quickly became alert, "Are you the helpers that Xicun invited back?"
"No, Uncle, you misunderstood!" Mr. Tang said, "We are just passing by here temporarily, and we need to stay here for a while for some reason.
But the food was limited, so there were two people in this village who exchanged food for the condition of teaching the children in the village to read or write.
It won't be long before I leave!Uncle, please help me! "
The man looked everyone up and down. Although the clothes in front of the group were simple, they all had extraordinary appearances, and it was hard to hide their aura of wealth!
That man is considered knowledgeable, and these people don't seem to be very old, and their physiques are not too strong, and there are a few weak ladies.
He frowned, and said to Young Master Tang: "You guys wait here first, I'll ask the village chief for instructions!"
After a while, a thin old man came up behind him. As the man walked, the old man said: "The village chief, this is the group of people!"
The old man was about sixty years old, and his height clearly only reached the man's shoulders, but the man hunched over in front of him, bowing his head, as cautious as a child, and as obedient and docile as a student listening to his master's reprimand.
As he got closer, he could see a pair of kind and quiet eyes of the old man, which were cloudy but exuded a light of wisdom.
His ordinary and wrinkled old face has a light of wisdom that cannot be ignored. It seems that he can find the answer to everything in this world.
No one expected that there was such a person of grace hidden in this remote place.
He couldn't help but straighten his body, just like facing the master or the dean in the academy, he couldn't help showing respect.
The old man smiled and looked at the crowd, "I heard from Xiong Da that you have friends in there?"
"I've met the village head!" Mr. Tang and the others saluted respectfully, "Yes, please let the village head do the trick!"
"Are you the students who participated in the math competition this year?" the old man continued to ask with a smile.
Everyone was taken aback.The government has never announced the matter of the spell contest to the public, so why would this old man outside the wilderness know about it?
The old man seemed to understand their doubts, "There is no impenetrable wall in the world.
The government will not take the initiative to announce the matter of the spell contest, but it will slowly spread among the people over time.
This place is not far from the capital, and the news will spread faster. The old man happened to be in the town a few days ago and heard some rumors.
The ages and numbers of you all happened to be the same, and all of you have extraordinary manners, so the old man tried to guess, but the old man was right! "
After the old man finished speaking, he showed a knowing smile again.
"The students didn't hide it intentionally, please don't blame the village chief!" Since he was recognized by the other party, Mr. Tang did not deny it, "Since the village chief already knows our identity, please do me a favor, and the trapped Let the students inside come out!"
"Now that I know, the old man will arrange for him to be released!" The old man's eyes flicked over everyone's faces one by one.
Because of the old age, those eyes were already cloudy, but the people who were swept away still felt a trace of invisible sharpness.
"However, you waited for more than [-] people to come here, presumably not just to rescue that student?"
This old man is so sharp!Ji Ziqi praised in his heart.
"I don't know what the village chief's words mean?" Mr. Tang was secretly startled, but his expression remained unchanged.
"There are more than twenty of you who are unarmed, and there are a few young ladies who are not allowed to declare their identities because of the rules of the spell contest exam!
It's not so stupid that you want to snatch people from hundreds of villagers, right?
Well, so many people came together for a student, they must have tried to rescue him in other ways! "
It seems that the folks are indeed hiding experts!Judging their next move from their movements alone.
Everyone can't help but be in awe!
Mr. Tang directly admitted their reason for coming, "As the village head said. The students thought that the two villages had a conflict because of the division of mountains and forests.
The students thought about using what they had learned to complete this matter for the two villages, and solved the root problem, and other things would be solved by themselves! "
As soon as Mr. Tang said this, all the students straightened up and looked at the old man, expecting to see the excited look on his face.
But to everyone's surprise, the old man's face was still very kind. Not only did he not see the slightest excitement, but he had an expression that everyone couldn't tell the difference.
The old man said: "I wonder how the students plan to use what they have learned?"
Mr. Tang said: "About the division of the field, the master of the college has taught it. As long as you know the specific size, you can get the result through precise calculation!"
"Where does the exact size come from?"
Although Mr. Tang had expected it earlier, he was still stunned, and the other students were also stunned, "Here, isn't there any specific size in the village?"
The old man said: "If not, what are you going to do?"
It is not easy for Mr. Tang to answer this question.
A Xuanwu student raised his hand and said, "If there is no size, let's measure it ourselves!"
"En." The old man nodded lightly, closed his eyes, seemed to be resting his mind, and seemed to be in deep thought.
After a long time, he opened his eyes and said: "The old man remembers that someone once measured the approximate size of the mountain forest.
It's just that it's been a long time, and I don't know if it's accurate or not.
How about students, how about calculating according to the data I remember? "
This is the best, and everyone is overjoyed.
