Rise From the Humble

After the ink was dry, Zhu Pingan collected the test paper, carefully put it into the test paper bag, and hung it on the wall on the side.

It was already dark now, and the night was as thick as ink, as if you could dip your brush into ink. As darkness descended on the examination room, there was also a howling north wind. The wind was so strong that the soldiers standing outside to invigilate the exam were shivering from the cold.

Of course, along with the howling north wind, there is also the peculiar smell next door. The one that suffers the most is the stench.

The sound of someone vomiting could be heard in the distance. In the silent night, it was very obvious. He must be an unlucky kid like me.

It doesn't matter if you are in a bad situation, just make a mask yourself.

Zhu Ping'an tightened the rabbit fur jacket tightly, pulled the luggage on the kang with his hands, and found a cotton pillow towel. This was a pillow towel made by his mother, Mrs. Chen, at home to make clothes for herself. Made from leftover cotton scraps.

Take this pillow cover out of your bag, then find a small knife, cut the pillow cover into two oval pieces of cotton according to the size of your face, overlap the two oval pieces of cotton, and then use a small knife to Four long straps were cut, and then four small holes were punched on both sides of the overlapping oval cotton cloth, and the four long straps were tied through the holes.

Well, a simple double-layer mask is made.

Zhu Pingan put on this simple mask. Well, the effect was pretty good. There was almost no smell.

It's a good time to go to bed in the dead of night, but it's best to read the second question of the four-character essay before going to bed, and think about it while you sleep.

The title of the second four-book and eight-part essay is relatively simple: "As the years get colder, you will know that the pines and cypresses will wither."

This is Chapter 28 of "The Analects of Confucius. Zihan". This sentence is also a sentence that everyone often says. After reading the question, Zhu Pingan put the test questions into the test paper bag and hung it on the wall. Then he cleaned up the dormitory, blew out the candles, and thought about it. Quietly fell asleep.

In fact, this question is not difficult at all. In winter, I realized that pine and cypress trees are the last to lose their leaves. In fact, it is nothing more than talking about the indomitable integrity of pines and cypresses. Zhu Xi used two sentences to comment on this chapter. "When a villain governs the world, he may be no different from a gentleman, but when faced with dangers and dangers, when things happen, the gentleman's position can be seen." "A poor scholar will recognize integrity, and a loyal minister will be recognized by chaos. If you want to be a scholar, you must be virtuous."

Therefore, this question is also a question about expressing one's ambitions. It is about describing the unyielding integrity and quality of pines and cypresses in the winter from multiple angles, and then expressing that one's ideological realm is as high-spirited and upright as pines and cypresses.

Soon, Zhu Pingan conceived an eight-legged essay and then fell asleep quietly.

In the early morning, everything is silent. The distant dawn slowly overlooks the examination room, casting a hazy light to wake up the sleeping candidates.

In fact, Zhu Pingan had already gotten up early to wash up before dawn.

For no other reason than because it is the coldest time of the day. There is still morning frost outside at this time. Because of the cold, the smell next door is still very light; because it is early, most candidates have not yet gotten up.

Therefore, the smell of smell is the lightest time of the day at this time.

yesterday day. After only one meal, Zhu Pingan felt extremely hungry in his belly, and his stomach had growled several times.

"Therefore, when Heaven is about to entrust a person with a great responsibility, he must first endure hardships on his mind and will. His muscles and bones are strained, his skin is starved, his body is depleted, and his actions are disturbed by his actions. Therefore, tempting his heart and forbearance has benefited him beyond what he could do."

Zhu Pingan is wearing a mask. Quietly reciting this sentence in "Mencius", he took out the pieces of meat cut by the inspecting soldiers from the bag, forked them with an iron bar, grilled them on the charcoal fire, and then opened the mask Put the piece of meat into your mouth, then quickly pull down the mask and put it on.

Just like that, chewing hard.

As for making noodle soup like yesterday, please forgive me for not being able to do it. Yesterday was because it was the first day, and I was almost the first one to come in. The toilet next door was almost not used yet, and there was no smell, so I was able to cook a meal of hot soup noodles, but today I couldn't.

If I do what I did yesterday again, I will have to throw up.

Therefore, Zhu Pingan heated the dried meat and put it in his mouth, wearing a mask and chewing to satisfy his hunger. Once baked, put it in the mouth of the mask and then swallow it. It’s very fast and you eat a lot.

The soldier who was proctoring the exam outside was almost dumbfounded. He just came back from his shift that night and found out that the master of the dormitory he was responsible for had dressed up in such a strange way, with a rag covering his face. Moreover, why did he suddenly I ate so happily so early in the morning that I didn’t stop talking.

During the shift break last night, I heard that the candidate in the other row had already vomited. Especially during the intensive toilet breaks in the evening, the unlucky child had already vomited and passed out. The President (the examiner in ancient times was also called the President, that is, the President who marked the exam) thought that human life was at stake, so he was already sent to the Ming Jing Tower. Of course, the exam must be cancelled.

But our proctor, not only did he not vomit to death, but he was jumping up and down.

Therefore, no matter what others think of this bad guy who is proctoring the exam, I am convinced anyway.

In such a short time, Zhu Ping'an had stuffed almost a pound of dried meat into his mouth. His stomach was no longer hungry, but he still had to stuff more. In extreme cases, he would be 100% full.

A candidate who woke up early in the morning couldn't help but feel the gushing feeling in his stomach. He put on a coat and went from his dormitory to the toilet to rest.

Accompanied by the invigilator, I was walking on the way to the toilet. I was extremely glad that he was not assigned to a bad number. Think about it, there are so many candidates like me who go to the toilet for convenience. Then there is the gloating over the candidates who are assigned to the stinky number, hehe, the candidates who are assigned to the stinky number have to be smoked to death.

Thinking of this, the examinee couldn't help feeling a sense of happiness.

Sure enough, comparison can produce happiness.

When the examinee passed by his schadenfreude account, a scene that subverted his outlook on life appeared.

The examinee who should be vomiting to death in his heart is holding an iron bar on the barbecue, making a sizzling sound, and eating it with gusto.

vomit

For some reason, the examinee, who was going to the toilet, couldn't help retching when he saw this scene.

Uh, did you come here specifically to vomit at my door?

Zhu Pingan glanced outside when he heard the sound, then shook his head speechlessly, threw the dried meat on the iron bar into the charcoal brazier, let it burn to ashes, and began to clean up his dormitory.

At this time, the sky gradually became brighter.

Wearing a mask, Zhu Pingan packed up the things in his room, washed his hands, arranged the wooden board with pens, ink, paper and inkstones again, and began to continue his journey of leaping through the dragon's gate.

When the examinee who had vomited came out of the toilet, Zhu Ping'an had already copied the second eight-part essay he had conceived last night on the draft paper with a splash of ink. He wrote it quickly and without adding any points, and finished it in one go.

Even though you are in a bad situation, you can still have a lot of thoughts! The examinee who went to the toilet was almost blinded by Zhu Pingan.
