Chapter 1434 Goodbye Miss Hu

There were still three days until the county examination results were released. With nothing to do, Jiang Hao took out the purple gourd he had obtained before and prepared to test it.

"Zhu Guang, help me protect the law." Jiang Hao said.

"It's the young master!"

Zhu Guang took out the butcher's knife, stepped in and stood beside him, with a majestic face and a sense of protecting the law.

Sitting cross-legged and holding the purple gold gourd in his hand, Jiang Hao carefully probed into his mind. His spiritual power flowed through the formation runes, and suddenly he entered a dark space. The space was huge and empty, with no up, down, left, and right. After exploration, Jiang Hao found that this gourd had three formations. As for the The function is still unknown to him.

After exiting the gourd, Jiang Hao thought for a moment and had some guesses in his mind. The formation could be activated with spiritual power. As for its effect, Jiang Hao raised his eyes and looked at Zhu Guang standing next to him.

"Zhu Guang, how did you feel when the Taoist used this gourd to catch you that day?" Jiang Hao asked.

Zhu Guang scratched his head, "The Taoist pointed the gourd at me and recited the incantation. I suddenly felt as if an invisible big hand came out of the gourd and grabbed me. My whole body was imprisoned and I couldn't move at all. The big hand held I pulled into the gourd. If the amulet the master gave me had not exploded, I would have been caught in the gourd in a moment. "

Having said this, Zhu Guang is still a little frightened.

Jiang Hao thought to himself that among the three rune formations in the purple gold gourd, one must be the 'ghost collecting' formation.

Jiang Hao poured his spiritual power into the gourd, and suddenly felt something in his heart. The formation was activated, and suddenly a big spiritual hand was formed to grab Zhu Guang.

Zhu Guang was suddenly caught and felt a strong pulling force. At this time, Jiang Hao said, "Zhu Guang, don't resist, help me try the effect of this gourd weapon."

"Understood." Zhu Guang gave up resistance.

Whoosh~!

Zhu Guang disappeared instantly.

The next moment, Jiang Hao's mind followed into the gourd space and found Zhu Guang floating in the dark space, with a confused look on his face and a hint of fear.

"Zhu Guang, can you hear me?" Jiang Hao sent a message from his heart.

Zhu Guang was shocked and immediately shouted: "Sir, Zhu Guang can hear your voice very clearly."

"Look around and see if you can find the edge?"

Zhu Guang flew up, soaring forward, backward, left and right, but in Jiang Hao's field of vision, although Zhu Guang was flying, he was always stuck in place and did not move at all.

"Sir, this space seems endless." Zhu Guang shouted into the air.

Seeing this, Jiang Hao understood that this should be the gourd's trap, trapping the ghosts and preventing them from coming out.

There was also the last formation. Jiang Hao input spiritual power to activate it. Zhu Guang felt a ball of blue yin fire rising in the air, surrounding him. The yin fire burned on his ghost body, and he felt pain in his heart.

"Ah~~!"

Zhu Guang screamed in pain.

"Sir, spare your life!"

Jiang Hao was startled and immediately withdrew his spiritual power to remove the Yin Fire. Only then did Zhu Guang feel better. Jiang Hao activated the trap formation and released Zhu Guang from the gourd.

After Zhu Guang came out, he still had lingering fears and a look of horror. Jiang Hao found that the ghost light in his ghost body was a little weaker. This surprised Jiang Hao. In just a few seconds, Zhu Guang's soul was burned by the Yin Fire. damaged.

The last time the two performed at the county government, Jiang Hao stabbed Zhu Guang with the money sword. Whether it was the white gas spraying or the green light of the ghost body weakening at the end, it was actually a show. It was the sound and light effects arranged by Jiang Hao for others to see. , and this time Zhu Guang was really injured.

"Zhu Guang, how do you feel?" Jiang Hao asked.

Zhu Guang still had a look of shock on his face, "Being burned by the yin fire, I felt like it was going straight into my soul, and it was extremely painful. Moreover, the yin fire can also burn the ghost energy in my body. I'm afraid that it won't take long before I will be completely burned by this yin fire." "

Jiang Hao nodded after hearing this, thinking that Yin Huo was so powerful.

I picked up the gourd and looked at it for a long time. The more I looked at it, the more I liked it. This gourd is definitely a good treasure for dealing with ghosts.

Taoist Lingxiao said that this is the shocking treasure of their Xuanyuan Temple. It has been passed down for many years. It is indeed not simple.

Moreover, this treasure was severely beaten away by Zhu Guang with a ghost weapon butchering knife. Jiang Hao did not find any scratch marks on the gourd. This gourd must be extremely solid.

Jiang Hao was also happy to have his treasure. He kept using his spiritual power to wash away the formation and became familiar with how to use it. During this period, Zhu Guang was retracted and retracted, and he struggled for more than a dozen times. However, Jiang Hao did not activate the Yin Fire, fearing that Zhu Guangzhen was incinerated.

Jiang Hao was concentrating on practicing. In the county government office, the county magistrate was reviewing the papers for this county examination. Although magistrate Wang was a corrupt official, he was indeed a Jinshi and had some talent. He could tell the quality of these articles.

"Words crawl like dogs!"

"There is no beauty in poetry."

“The article makes no sense!”

"Everything is missing in the dictation, it's a waste!"

There were more than 30 papers on Magistrate Wang's desk. These were all paid for by this county test. As for the ones that didn't cost money, he didn't even look at them. But to be honest, some of these papers were really rubbish. .

I took another paper and looked through it. Just looking at the handwriting on the paper, the lines revealed a strong, dignified and elegant feeling, which was very pleasing to the eye. Looking at the content again, whether it was silent writing or poems, poems and strategies, the answers were all very appropriate.

Looking at the candidate's name, Qingxi Zhenjiang Hao.

The county magistrate was slightly shocked. Jiang Hao had told himself that day that he had the talent to lead a case. Unexpectedly, he was not lying. Judging from this paper, he was far ahead of other candidates. He could indeed get a case. No wonder it was so big. tone.

"Should we give him the crime?" the county magistrate murmured.

Although he promised Jiang Hao before, he also accepted other people's money. Now he also got the money sword. Li Gui hasn't come for many days, so maybe he doesn't need to keep his promise.

In fact, it’s okay to give him a second place.

The magistrate was just thinking about marking the words with a red pen when suddenly the closed window opened with a whoosh. A cool breeze blew from outside, causing the candles to sway violently. It was pitch dark outside, making the room seem to be full of ghosts.

Magistrate Wang's hand trembled violently, and he suddenly thought of the evil ghost in his mind. His body suddenly trembled, and he wrote down two red characters.

"First".

Today is the day when the results of the county examination are released. Many people gathered outside the county school. There are students and children who are taking part in the test, as well as ordinary people watching the excitement. There are no less than a thousand people gathered around.

Jiang Hao, Cui Sheng, Han Yi, Zhao Licheng, and Li He also came here early. The rankings had not yet started, so they gathered around and chatted.

"Brother Zhao, is there any hope this time?" Li He asked.

Zhao Licheng shook his head, "After taking the exam for more than ten years, there is no improvement. Besides, others have spent money, so we are probably out of luck. We just always have a glimmer of hope in our hearts."

"Alas~!"

A few people only sighed.

Jiang Hao said nothing.

When it was almost noon, a group of government officials came out. The leader shouted "Silence!" and the noise around them gradually became smaller.

"Release the list!"

With a loud shout, two government officials walked out and began to paste the paste on the list.

When the list was posted, people began to crowd under the list regardless of the scolding, and the list became chaotic for a while.

"Ahhhh~ I'm hit!"

"There is me, there is me, you see my name."

Those who cheered were all dressed in splendid clothes, while most of the shabby people looked lonely.

Suddenly someone shouted, "The top one is out, Jiang Hao, who is Jiang Hao?"

Cui Sheng and others crowded forward and glanced over, but could not find their names. Although they were mentally prepared, they were still inevitably disappointed. However, when they saw Jiang Hao's name at the top of the list, they were all surprised.

"Ah, Brother Jiang, you've topped the list!"

"It can't be the same name, right?"

"Probably not."

People turned to Jiang Hao one after another. When Jiang Hao saw his name at the top of the list, he was not too excited. He just thought that there was no need for Zhu Guang to find the magistrate Wang.

Cui Sheng and others surrounded Jiang Hao and left the list. When they arrived at a place with few people, they all congratulated each other. Han Yidao said: "I didn't expect that Brother Jiang could be the first in a high school and the first in a county. As long as there are no big problems, a scholar's reputation is nothing." It’s stable.”

County case leaders, generally during prefecture and college examinations, if the prefect and school inspector are not particularly dissatisfied, they will give face to the local magistrate and select the county case leaders.

Several people came to the restaurant and asked for a table to celebrate Jiang Hao. During this period, they sighed a lot. Jiang Hao asked them if they were still taking the exam. Cui Sheng, Han Yi, and Li He said they would continue taking the exam. Zhao Licheng shook his head, "I No more exams. A grown man cannot always let his wife take care of the family business. I have already agreed with my uncle that I am going to work as a secretary at Hu Ji Store. "

It was already evening when Jiang Hao returned home, but he found that there were many people standing in the yard of his home. They were all nearby villagers, and they were just acquaintances on weekdays. They heard that Jiang Hao had passed the examination and would be at least a scholar in the future. They all came to congratulate him. .

"If you pass the exam, you will have a good reputation as a scholar." said an uncle.

"I usually study hard and study hard. This time I am really ranked first in high school. I will definitely be a Jinshi in the future." An aunt said with a smile.

"In the future, I will be very prosperous and prosperous!" Someone flattered me randomly.

It was just a small county examination, the first step in the imperial examination's long journey of thousands of miles, and it attracted so many people's congratulations, which shows the importance of the imperial examination in the minds of the people.

In fact, if you think about it, wouldn't future generations also be envied by others if they have good college entrance examination scores?

Since the Sui Dynasty, the imperial examination has gone through more than a thousand years and has really become popular among people.

The Jiang family was lively for a while before people dispersed.

But one person stayed at the end, wearing a servant's blue coat, and came over to bow to Jiang Hao: "Mr. Jiang, I am a servant of the Hu family. The master knows that the master is in high school, so he has sent an invitation to the Hu family for a banquet tomorrow. "

As he spoke, he held up a red invitation.

Jiang Hao opened it, looked at it, nodded and said, "Jiang will go to the banquet tomorrow."

The servant received the reply and hurriedly left to reply.

Looking at the invitation, Jiang Hao said in his heart that the old fox's information was quite good. He was not always paying attention to him. This was a meeting, it had nothing to do with him, but he wanted to treat him specially. Jiang Hao always felt that the old fox wanted to get something from him. .

But he could feel it, and it didn't seem like there was any malice, otherwise he would have sensed it with his sixth sense.

The next day,

Jiang Hao put on a brand new white robe, tied up his hair with hairpins, and had two blue silk ribbons on the back of his head, making him look indescribably chic and elegant.

Taking a stroll in a carriage, we came all the way to Hu's house in Hexian Town.

As soon as the carriage arrived, the Hu family's housekeeper and two servants were standing at the door. Seeing Jiang Hao's carriage approaching, one person immediately stepped forward to lead the horse, and the other ran in to inform. Hu's housekeeper saluted Jiang Hao.

"Master Jiang, please come in. I have been waiting for you for a long time." Housekeeper Hu said.

As soon as he walked into the Taoist courtyard at the gate of the Hu family, Jiang Hao saw the handsome old man striding out from inside with a smile on his face. When he saw Jiang Hao, he laughed, "Mr. Jiang, congratulations. You are the first in the county examination and high school." It’s so rare that you said you would take the exam based on your own ability, but you really have a lot of talent in your heart.”

Jiang Hao bowed his hands in thanks, and the two walked into the living room, only to find Miss Hu standing in the main hall. Jiang Hao was slightly startled when he saw the beauty in front of him.

Today, Miss Hu simply wore her hair in a bun, without any hairpins, no makeup on her face, and was dressed in a snow-white plain robe, exuding an incomparable ice crystal elegance, refined and refined.

Jiang Hao only had one thought in his mind,

So pure!
