You can crudely attribute a person's success to luck, but you have to know in your heart that luck alone is not enough, you also need hard work, talent, etc.
Luck alone may allow a person to win a fortune in a gambling house, but it is absolutely impossible to get a top grade in the archery test.
Talent determines the upper limit, hard work determines the lower limit, luck is opportunity, and those who achieve the top will all coexist.
Don’t you see, even a child prodigy like Kong Nianwen, who is said to have photographic memory, still needs to read books day after day and practice his shooting skills before the exam. Can’t we relax?
Pu Yinglin obviously knew this truth and was immediately silenced.
The candidates around him all smiled, and one candidate said, "Brother Wang, don't worry about it. He is just straightforward and has no malice."
Wang Sheng shook his head and did not respond.
Kong Nianwen looked into the distance. When he couldn't see anyone he knew well, he looked back and stared at Pu Yinglin beside him.
He then sneered and said in a calm tone: "Brother Wang said this politely. If you ask me, even if he practices shooting every day, he will never learn the etiquette, justice, integrity and morality that a human being should have. . ”
How can I say that Kong Nianwen’s words are not pleasant to listen to?
He directly said that Pu Yinglin's face turned red. Among all the students present, only Pu Yinglin was not qualified for the provincial examination.
People around him were afraid of exaggerating the matter. They stopped Pu Yinglin one after another and pulled him away. They also consoled him: "Forget it, forget it, Brother Kong is like this. You don't have to fight with him." He has ordinary knowledge."
Pu Yinglin couldn't defeat more than a dozen candidates with his bare hands, so he could only stop trying to find trouble.
Wang Sheng waited for everyone to leave and said helplessly: "This matter has nothing to do with you. It is useless to talk more. Talking to him is also a waste of words. When Brother Yang comes back and knows that you are talking like this, what should I do? "You said nothing,"
"How can it have nothing to do with me?"
Kong Nianwen turned around, stared at Wang Sheng speechlessly, and said leisurely: "Everyone in the examination room, your eyes have not yet opened. Blind, I naturally see you and I coming here together. By making things difficult for you, he not only doesn’t give you face, but also tramples on my face.”
“Besides, I’m doing this for you. "Excuse me, why don't you give me a nice word in front of Zimei? I sincerely regard you as a close friend, and this is how you repay me?"
Wang Sheng still doesn't know that you are such a close friend? When it is done, just take these few sentences as it is done.
"Oh, my best friend, you also know that I am a wolf-hearted person, and obviously you cannot entrust all this matter to me. If you really insist on entrusting it to me, then I can only tell you, "It's not a human being."
"You!"
Kong Nianwen glared at Wang Sheng and turned back, not wanting to have too much communication with him.
Wang Sheng pursed his lips and smiled., and then turned his attention to the field.
Just when Kong Nianwen thought that Wang Sheng would not speak, he never expected to hear a few plain words from him.
"I didn't argue with him because I knew he was inferior and missed the opportunity to take the provincial examination. The other students present tried to persuade him because they were afraid that he would get angry and disrupt the order of the examination room."

"The government officials came in and took us away regardless of who was right or wrong. Do you want to go to the government?"
Wang Sheng saw that Kong Nianwen was silent, but his expression was disapproving. After a pause, he continued: "Originally, the fault was not ours, but if we had provoked first and caused a noise, which would have affected the archery test. If we happened to be disqualified from the provincial examination because of this, it would be more of a loss than a gain."
"For him, neither the left nor the right can participate, so he doesn't care."
If your heart is tied and your actions are limited, you can't do whatever you want, and you can't wait for anything. You can solve it after leaving the examination room.
Striving for momentary glory and achieving momentary speed is not the best choice.
Kong Nianwen was startled, and then he turned around. This was in an examination room, not everyday.
He lowered his head and murmured: "What should I do? What if he hates me? I just said it casually. After all, his words are unpleasant to listen to."

"Look at him."
Wang Sheng pulled Kong Nianwen's sleeve and motioned for him to look back.
When Kong Nianwen turned around, he saw Pu Yinglin not far away surrounded by stars and the moon, talking happily without noticing his sight.
"It has been resolved. However, I would like to thank Brother Kong for speaking out on this matter."
Wang Sheng took two steps back and bowed his hands to express his gratitude.
Kong Nianwen quickly waved his hand, then helped Wang Sheng up, and whispered: "If you really thank me, why don't you tell Brother Yang?"
He looked around Look, seeing that no one noticed him, he lowered his head and lowered his voice.
"Brother Yang knows, then my relatives and friends will also know. I just felt that this was a trivial matter, and what you said really made me uneasy."
Wang Sheng withdrew his hand and suppressed a smile.
The reason for being so scared is probably not that of Yang Zimei, but that the elders in the family would get beaten if they knew about it.
"I am not the one who decides this matter. You should advise Pu Yinglin and other classmates. What I say is harmful to myself."
"He?"
When Kong Nianwen heard these words, he immediately turned back.
"If you want me to beg him, it is better to suffer the punishment more quickly and with less torture."
Wang Sheng shook his head and did not comment on this. He continued to cast his gaze on the field.
The conversation was delayed for a long time, shootingThe "thirty" group of the etiquette examination.
When Wang Sheng took a closer look, he happened to see the yamen officer walking to the stage with the pipa, handing the pipa to the musician, taking the flute from the musician, and taking it to the audience.
I had just wondered where the musicians got the horns from, but upon closer inspection, it turned out that there were instruments under the stage, but not all were placed on the stage.
In this way, candidates who have not yet taken the stage will not be able to guess the repertoire by looking at the instruments, which is a means to maintain fairness.
The process experienced by the fourth group was no different from that of the previous groups. Wang Sheng did not see Ji Shaohuai and Yang Zimei in the field, but he found Shen Shenzhi.
His moves were quite experienced, and he was not disturbed by the sound of the pipa, and achieved excellent results.
Wang Sheng was not familiar with him. After a quick glance, he immediately turned his attention to the next exam and continued to search for familiar figures.
After thinking deeply, he did not go to drink the mung bean soup. Instead, he went straight to the examination booth where the candidates rested, looking left and right, searching for someone.
"Wang Sheng."
As soon as these two words came out, not only Wang Sheng turned around, but Kong Nianwen in front of Wang Sheng also turned around and looked at the visitor.
Kong Nianwen was really completely obscured by Wang Sheng's figure. Before he got closer, he thought that Wang Sheng was the only one here.
Of course, it was very rude to call him by his first name, and he happened to be bumped into by someone. Even though he was deep in thought, there was a trace of embarrassment on his face.
"Shenzhi?"
Kong Nianwen poked his head out and saw that it was Shenzhi. He raised his right foot and walked out directly in front of Wang Sheng, inserting himself into the gap between the two.
"What are you doing here?"
