Chapter 23: Evacuation plan

At the same time, in the big tent outside Qingshan Town.

A sand table was placed on the long mahogany table, and the invigilator Shen

Chunzheng adjusted the deployment of the flags on the plate based on the

information that was constantly coming from the town.

"I saw the mess on the other side, did something happen?" With a thick

question, Ba Xingtian and the short inspector walked into the account-these

days the two will come to inspect every afternoon, and from Shen Chun has long

been accustomed to not arranging notifications from his subordinates. He was

waiting to salute to answer, but was stopped by a big hand.

Ba Xingtian looked at the sand table for a while, and then "Oh" with interest,

"Did they find out where they are?"

"Back to your lord, that's it."

"Not bad, it's only the fifth day, almost two days faster than the time twelve

years ago." The guard applauded.

"Why is it twelve years ago?" Another person asked, "There are three rounds of

the scholarship test. Even if the Qingshan formation is special, it should be

every six years."

Although he knew that his boss was particularly tolerant of this young man,

considering the difference in grades between the two, Shen Chun was still

stunned by the straightness and casualness of the other party. It's just that

he wanted to know the answer to this question, so when nothing happened, he

continued to play with his sandbox.

"Because the pass rate was too low that time, I had to stop for a while."

"The pass rate is too low?"

"My memory is not very good. It should be referenced by more than 140 people.

In the end, only nine people passed." Ba Xingtian smiled. "The Privy Council

took a lot of effort to keep the total admission rate at five. Into the left

and right."

Shen Chun couldn't help but raised his eyebrows. It was the first time he

heard this inside story. This means that the pass rate of other examination

rooms has been greatly improved, which makes it cheaper for non-Qingshanzhen

candidates in disguise. Thinking about it this way, he himself seems to be a

qualified person twelve years ago, isn't it because he borrowed the light from

here?

"Is this unfair?" The short man questioned.

"The examination room for the scholarship examination is adapted to local

conditions, how can all of them be the same?" Ba Xingtian shook his head,

"When there is difficulty, it will be easy. Of course, the government will

also take this into account when assigning positions. Alchemist, the starting

point is a bit higher than other places."

"Oh? This is a way."

"In addition, the low pass rate is not the only reason for the suspension of

this place. In fact, unnecessary losses are another key." Ba Xingtian touched

his beard and seemed a little emotional. "That year, there were more than 30

in total. It’s beyond the normal scope for the famous candidates to be damaged

by this. Putting them in other examination rooms, they might all become

excellent alchemists. This is the fault of the Privy Council. Of course, this

year will not repeat the same mistakes."

More than thirty...The loss rate reached 20%? Shen Chun's heart jumped, after

so many years, is Qingshan's Great Wild Night still so threatening? It is no

wonder that the Privy Council will set up so many demon staking piles in the

small town. It is estimated that the suspension six years ago was also to test

the effect, and it was reactivated after it was determined that it was

foolproof.

"How many people do you guess will be qualified this time?" The short man

looked at Shen Chun.

"It depends on how many hiding places they can find." He quickly replied,

"Some of the bans will dissipate over time. The longer you persist, the

greater the chance. According to the plan, if all places are used, it can be

guaranteed. The passing number of one hundred people. Considering that it is

impossible for all locations to be found by candidates, the final result

should be around 70 or 80."

"It seems that our busy work was not in vain." Ba Xingtian touched his beard

with satisfaction. "One of the major reasons for the problems in the last

session was the lack of guidance. Most of the candidates did not realize the

existence of Dahuang Shaye until the last night, and panicked. A lot of things

went wrong."

"Adults are right." Shen Chunran said clearly that the guards were talking

about those in the government who pretended to be townspeople and traded

information with examinees-they could not only influence the direction of the

exam, but also get first-hand information in the town and score the examiners.

Provide evidence. "Such an examination room is also closer to the real

environment, and the proposer is undoubtedly a genius."

"But there is still something strange." Ba Xingtian pointed to the location of

the broken bridge in the sand table, "The amount of information each examinee

or group gets should be different, but how come these people's actions seem to

be known?"

"According to my subordinates' report, Luo from the Luo family took the

initiative to tell all the candidates about his findings." Shen Chun took out

a note and handed it to the guard, "More than that, now their evacuation is

also organized by Luo gently. ."

"Is there anything else?" The latter glanced quickly, then raised his head and

laughed, "The next generation is terrible! She already regards herself as an

alchemist in the Privy Council, and is dealing with local evil events!"

"Yes, this person must have a promising future." Shen Chun also showed a smile

of Xicai, "This time she is the first place in the exam."

The inspector did not smile, he took the note and looked at it silently for a

while, "Luo's family..."

"Why, dissatisfied?" Ba Xingtian grinned, "I haven't seen such a young girl

with such strong mobility. The Privy Council has no shortage of people who are

proficient in alchemy and powerful in combat, but there is a lack of people

who take the lead in planning. If you go to Gyeonggi, I’m sure it will attract

competition from all sides. You have to think about it. There are not many

opportunities to get close to the water."

Consider... what to consider? What the ** the guardian is talking about?

Shen Chun faintly noticed that something was wrong, why did his immediate boss

say such things to the inspector whose rank was far below him?

"But the words of a disciple of the family..." The short man put down the

note, picked up the roster on the table again, and looked through it again \-

this time, he simply skipped the first dozen pages and looked at the part of

the door. "Supervisor Shen, Ma Ruxue... What do you think of this person?"

"I am proficient in inquiring clues, and the level of alchemy is unknown.

Judging from the current performance, it is very likely to opt out." Shen Chun

answered while quietly looking at the other party. He could hear that the

ombudsman seemed to be quite prejudiced against the descendants of the family,

and seemed to prefer Sanmen. But the problem is that these aristocratic

families were originally attached to the Privy Council and grew and formed,

and they were far from the real family lords. As an official in the

government, his attitude was really strange.

After asking several people, the other party suddenly gave a soft "Huh".

"Didn't you say that this guy will be eliminated soon? Why is he still in

town... and not only has his money doubled several times, he even got the

source of spiritual fire?"

Shen Chun squinted his eyes and found that the short man was referring to Xia

Fan.

"This person is really lucky. According to the summary, he has raised a lot of

money from the eliminated candidates and survived the crisis of early

elimination. As for the bottle of spiritual fire, it is still unclear how he

got it. But... …Except for luck, he didn't have much performance."

"Don't you think he can pass?"

"Yes. One of the most important indicators in the exam is the ability to

negotiate, and the only one who gets closer to him is a fellow villager. The

fewer people you associate with, the lower your ability to resist risks.

Especially high-risk like Dahuangshaye. It is very unlikely that a person will

survive the incident. Of course, it is also very likely that he will withdraw

with other candidates. This is also a wise choice."

Speaking of this, Shen Chun secretly sighed and had to say that this examinee

named Xia Fan was really a bit weird. When there were only five taels of

silver in the front, he spent money like water, but he was more cautious when

he got 20 taels. . If these silvers are spilled out and more candidates are

formed into teams, the ranking will not be the way it is now.

The short man turned a few pages and finally lost his patience. He threw the

roster back on the table and patted the silver mask on his face, "The family

is the family...It's better than nothing."

For some reason, Shen Chun felt relieved.

Suddenly, the other party supported the table with both hands, and leaned

forward suddenly, "By the way, I almost forgot to ask you—Invigilator Shen,

have you found any signs of who might be the listener these days?"

Shen Chun couldn't help but step back, "No... of course not. If the officer

finds a clue, he will definitely report it to the two inspectors as soon as

possible!"

"Ah, isn't it?" The short man withdrew his hand as if eagerly, and said to Ba

Xingtian, "Master Ba, I have no other problems."

The latter nodded, and walked out of the big account alongside him, leaving

only the invigilator with an inexplicable look in the account.

Shen Chun hasn't figured out for a long time, why when the other party asked

those words, his tone was not a reminder or warning, but a

little...expectation?

……

"Sister, this is the list to be evacuated tomorrow. I filled it out in the

order they reported."

Luo Youer put a piece of paper full of names on Luo Qing's desk.

"Thanks for your hard work, remember to let them leave the town in this order

early tomorrow morning. The most important thing about this kind of—"

"It's order, I won't forget it." Luo Youer interrupted her, "You have said it

many times."

"That's good." Luo gently said helplessly.

"Then you keep busy, I won't bother you." The younger sister smiled and left

the bedroom.

She rubbed the slightly sore corners of her eyes, got up and stretched the

wick a little longer, the fire in the room suddenly increased a lot, and at

the moment it was pitch black outside the window.

Today, the assembly of the wooden kite is not smooth, probably because it has

been stored for too long, and there have been several problems with the

skeleton, but it has not affected its use. To be on the safe side, she decided

to postpone the flying day until early tomorrow morning. As long as there is

no strong wind or rain, it will not be difficult to fly the distance of less

than five feet with people and rope.

Of course, UU reading www.uukanshu.com and flying over is the beginning. To

send so many candidates out of the town, a few wooden kites are definitely not

enough. They have to build a simple "bridge" with twine. This kind of rope

bridge certainly cannot support too much weight, so every time you board the

bridge must be strictly controlled. In addition, there are time issues and

accident handling... It can be said that the planning, preparation and

execution required for this operation are the same as in the past. Xiao Da

Xiao Nao is completely different.

As the initiator, she must not make any mistakes.

It seems that I have no sleep today.

Luo smiled bitterly, but then she felt relieved—at least tonight she didn’t

have to worry about being sneaked into the bedroom after she was asleep.

To be honest, when she found out that the room was invaded in the morning, she

felt like an ice cave.

Fortunately, the intruder didn't really do anything to her, otherwise she

really didn't know what to do next.

This also made Luo gently close his eyes for a while, and the other side's

appearance would involuntarily appear in his mind.

She knows that this is a kind of residual impression, which can only be slowly

forgotten by the brain. It may be easier to stay up tonight.

Wait until the person evacuates Qingshan Town and the exam continues, this

matter may not be considered the past. As for the future, Luo Qing was not

worried \- she didn't think she would have another intersection with the other

party.

Just then, there was a knock on the door outside the house.

"What's the matter?" She returned to her seat and said.

"Someone wants to see you." Luo Youer came in with a probe.

"Didn't I say, anyone who comes to the door will let them go to Senior Brother

Luo Fengqing?" Luo frowned slightly.

Junior sister showed a look of embarrassment, "This person is special, and he

said he only wants to talk to you."

"Who?"

"Xia Fan." Luo Youer said.
