I prove immortality through human relations and sophistication

Chapter 212 First-class top grade, the soldiers charge

Yan Zhen was undisputed and won the first place in the group stage. Many people looked at the smashed wooden stakes and recalled that Yan Zhen was calm and calm when he punched. He just punched out casually, and they all gasped for it. A breath of cool air.

Many examiners, including Feng Junyi and Fan Zhibian, were whispering to each other, their eyes full of recognition and admiration for Yan Zhen.

In the preparation area, Zhang Yan secretly clenched her fists. Every year, there are many female candidates in the provincial examinations and Taoist examinations in various places, but there are relatively few female candidates who can pass the examination.

Zhang Yan, like Yan Zhen, had endured it for four years. She wanted to prove that women should not give way to men, but unfortunately she was frustrated at the hands of Yan Zhen and Chu Linguang.

Now that she saw Yan Zhen, who could smash sixteen wooden stakes with a single punch, her proud heart was suddenly enveloped by a sense of powerlessness.

Their expressions became extremely gloomy.

"The world is uncertain and I cannot give up on myself. Even if I am not as strong as Yan Zhen and Chu Linguang, as long as I can surpass them in other subjects, it will be an honor. Even if I cannot beat them from beginning to end, I still have a place in the top three."

Zhang Yan regained her confidence and her eyes became firm again. Zhang Tao's words were vivid in her mind, which made her deeply aware of the importance of state of mind.

"boom!"

But at this moment, another team on the sand, a man with bronze skin and three-dimensional facial features, also punched sixteen wooden stakes at the same time.

The man punched out, and the energy on his fist shone like a layer of oil. It was obvious that he had used the power of the sea of ​​​​qi, and the assessment of qi strength was to activate the whole body's strength, whether it was the power of the wild or the power of the sea of ​​​​qi.

The man did not commit a foul.

That shattering look made everyone remember him immediately.

"Hu Yuanwu, this guy has also reached the realm of Qi Sea Perfection, and his bloodline has also evolved magical powers. In the last Taoist test, he was ranked second in Jincheng, and was surpassed by Yan Zhen. He has disappeared for the past four years and returned with full blood. I'm afraid he will In order to compete with Yan Zhen for the position of Jieyuan."

Zhang Yan was shocked.

As Zhang Tao's daughter, the first daughter of Qiling Governor's Mansion, Zhang Yan took part in the last Taoist examination here in Qiling Mansion. She was extremely talented and ranked first in the local area like Liu Qingqing.

A woman won the championship, attracting everyone's attention. In addition, she is Zhang Tao's daughter. In the Qiling Governor's Mansion, Zhang Yan's reputation is no less than that of Yan Zhen.

She wanted to win Jieyuan, and she knew all the competitive candidates quite well, but this Hu Yuanwu had been missing for four years, and she didn't know what he had gone through.

Chu Linguang's eyes were also attracted by Hu Yuanwu.

He suddenly felt pressure inside.

Compared to Yan Zhen, Zhang Yan, and even many others, he took the provincial examination only one year later, and most of the people who wanted to compete for Jieyuan, or the top ten, disappeared after taking the Taoist examination, waiting for this martial arts examination After that, another three years passed before I took the provincial examination again.

There were three years longer than him.

These extra three years are enough for many geniuses to grow to a level beyond the reach of ordinary people.

Chu Linguang knew in his heart that every provincial martial arts examination was fiercely competitive, and evil black horses often appeared. They excelled in the examination and became famous all over the world.

He knew that if he wanted to get in front of Yan Zhen, he needed to defeat them all.

But the appearance of Hu Yuanwu still surprised him.

In order to get in front of Yan Zhen, Uncle Du Guo used his power to help him compile a list of people who were a threat to him in this martial arts test.

Hu Yuanwu is among them.

The relevant information about Hu Yuanwu is also recorded above, but he lost to Yan Zhen in the last martial arts test and Taoist test, and disappeared after winning the second place in Jincheng. During these four years of disappearance, even Uncle Du Guo also investigated Less than.

It was even written on the list that something unexpected might happen.

Now that he was back, even though he had summoned the power of the sea of ​​qi to smash sixteen wooden stakes with one punch, when he looked at him, the fluctuations in the opponent's energy still put a lot of pressure on Chu Linguang.

Hu Yuanwu glanced at everyone lightly.

When his eyes entered the candidate preparation area, he saw Zhang Yan at a glance, nodding slightly to Zhang Yan from a distance.

Chu Linguang felt a wave of spiritual consciousness coming over him.

Hu Yuanwu's sea of ​​consciousness is not weak. With a thought, he can cover the entire preparation area with fluctuations of spiritual consciousness.

I could feel the fluctuations of his spiritual consciousness. When the eyes collided, it was impossible for Hu Yuanwu not to notice him, but Hu Yuanwu just glanced at Chu Linguang and did not stop at Chu Linguang.

This kind of disregard invisibly aroused some fighting spirit in Chu Linguang.

He is in a good mood and has great heart-keeping skills, but he is not devoid of desires. The purpose of participating in the martial arts examination is to stand out so that he can earn favor points more easily. This is his original purpose.

What's more, if he wants to get in front of Yan Zhen, Hu Yuanwu can pass this hurdle.

So Chu Linguang remained calm on the surface, but in his heart he was recalling the moment when Yan Zhen and Hu Yuanwu punched, feeling the fluctuations in their power, and trying to find flaws in them.

Before the power of the sea of ​​consciousness evolved, he only knew how to practice hard. Now that his spiritual wisdom has become clear, Chu Linguang also knows how to plan ahead, sum up the strengths and weaknesses of others, and prescribe the right medicine.

Just like when facing Gur Khan, he would endure when he should, strike when he should, and kill when he should. Before doing something, he would not only weigh the pros and cons, but also judge how to turn things around based on the existing conditions and even the topography.

Although Hu Yuanwu only punched, he was clearly ready to strike compared to Yan Zhen. It was obvious that Hu Yuanwu should be inferior in terms of blood. Of course, it is not ruled out that the opponent deliberately concealed his clumsiness. After all, the opponent had disappeared for four years, and even Uncle Du Guo had There is no way to know what he has been doing in the past four years, and how could he unleash all his skills in one punch.

Chu Linguang wrote it down silently, and at the same time listened to everyone's comments about Hu Yuanwu, trying to find more information about Hu Yuanwu and make adequate preparations for himself.

Thousands of candidates were tested in groups of ten. Although multiple groups were conducted, it was not that easy for Chu Linguang to take his turn.

After a while.

The names of Black Tiger and Jinshan appeared one after another.

The two were not placed in the same group, but were assessed at the same time.

"Look at me."

Black Tiger took a deep breath and said to Wang Chao and Chu Linguang.

"I wish Brother Tiger a blockbuster success!"

King and Xiao Wang cheered for Black Tiger.

Black Tiger entered the sandy land with a confident look on his face and looked at Jinshan.

A year ago, Jinshan passed the Taoist martial arts test, and Jinshan's overall strength was higher than that of Black Tiger. A year later, the two met again in the provincial martial arts test, and they were secretly competing with each other.

Both of them knew in their hearts that their masters did not expect them to pass the three levels and go straight to the palace examination. As Xiao Wang said, as long as they can pass the martial arts examination in this provincial examination, there will be smoke coming out of the ancestral graves.

Both of them are first-time candidates. After taking the Taoist examination, they will continue to take the provincial examination without skipping the next year. Once they win the exam, their resumes will be better than those who have failed in the exam, and the obstacles to getting promoted to a higher position in the future will be smaller.

"start!"

Feng Junyi shouted.

"what!"

Black Tiger shouted loudly. This was his character. Whether he was fighting with others or practicing marksmanship or sword skills, he would always yell.

At this moment, he instigated the small vortex in the sea of ​​​​qi and activated the power of the dragon and elephant. The three layers of skin, flesh and tendons burst out at the same time. It was as if there was a wheel of fire rotating in the chest. The force of his body moved the whole body, and poured out from his right fist in an instant. , crashing into the wooden pile in front of him.

"Clap clap clap!"

A continuous explosion sounded.

The eight wooden piles broke together, and the ninth wooden pile was crumbling. The front wooden pile exploded in the middle, and the gap became smaller as it exploded toward the back.

"call!"

Looking at the crumbling ninth wooden stake, Black Tiger's eyes widened. He immediately had an idea, inhaled and closed his fist, suppressing the restless energy. In the process, he stepped hard on the ground with his right foot.

"boom!"

The crumbling wooden stake finally fell down as the black tiger's kick shook Kyushu.

A group of examiners looking at the examination room looked at each other and all looked at Feng Junyi. They knew that Heihu's native place was Baiyang County, Nancheng. He had just taken the provincial examination in Nancheng a year ago, and the examiner at that time was Feng Junyi.

Feng Junyi remained silent, picked up the brush, and wrote on it the words "A-class, medium grade", with the number of wooden stakes in brackets being nine.

Seeing this, the other examiners looked at Fan Zhibian again, and found that Fan Zhibian had no objections, so they jointly assessed Black Tiger for a first-class mid-level score.

Although Black Tiger's kick was slippery, the ninth wooden stake had obvious fractures, with cracks crisscrossing it. Only a small section of the wooden stick was still connected, and it looked like it had been broken.

In addition, Black Tiger's kick was on the ground, not on a wooden stake, so he got a little advantage. Secondly, this is Zhang Tao's territory. Black Tiger's three senior brothers all work under Zhang Tao's tent. Although the martial arts examination system is Be strict, but don't be too harsh on small things.

So both Feng Junyi and Fan Zhibian turned a blind eye.

Of course, the premise of all this is that Heihu only cheats and cheats on small things. Even if the superiors investigate him, Feng Junyi can handle it.

In the end, Black Tiger achieved a first-class mid-level result.

Tie Zhennan’s disciple Jinshan also achieved this result.

When the results were announced, Hei Hu beamed with joy and bowed to Wang Chao from afar. This little trick was naturally taught to him by Wang Chao.

After a while.

Dawang Xiaowang, Dawu Xiaowu, Teng Qingshan, Lin Yuanfu and others also completed the strength test one after another.

Both the big king and the little king have only reached the second-class top grade in strength. With such scores, they can participate in the next round of assessment. If you want to win the exam, you need to maintain at least such scores in the following subjects, or in four subjects. Achieved first-class results.

And this seems a bit difficult for the big king and the little king.

As for Da Wu and Xiao Wu, after practicing for a few more years, the two of them, along with Teng Qingshan and Lin Yuanfu, all achieved first-class low-grade and first-class mid-grade results in this level.

An hour later.

Wang Chao comes on stage.

One punch.

Ten wooden stakes broke in response.

He secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

Ten or more sticks are first-class top grade, and ten or less are first-class mid-grade. However, the number of broken wooden stakes will also be recorded at the end of the score, and a comprehensive consideration will be made later.

Wang Chao is very satisfied with this achievement.

After walking out of the examination room and returning to Guo Wei, he knelt down and said, "Thank you, Master, for helping this disciple improve his strength."

"The person who helped you is Lin Guang. Those Qi and Blood Pills were given to him by the imperial court and the uncle. Although he used them to honor me, if he didn't give me those Qi and Blood Pills, I wouldn't be able to help you as a teacher."

Guo Wei explained.

Although elixirs can increase strength, if taken too much, it will be difficult to break through when encountering bottlenecks in the future. Chu Linguang has always kept this in mind and basically handed over the rewards for defeating Samba and Uncle Du to Guo Wei.

"This disciple will never forget the kindness of master's teachings, nor will he forget the great help of his younger brother."

Wang Chao nodded.

His strength has already reached a bottleneck, and it is very difficult to break through, so Guo Wei no longer limits him when taking Qi and Blood Pills.

The reason why he encountered a spiritual bottleneck at a young age was also related to his personality. He took excessive amounts of various auxiliary medicinal powders too early, and finally ended up in this situation.

By the time Guo Wei discovered it, it was too late.

"boom!"

There is more than one dark horse, Hu Yuanwu.

A man surnamed Ye used a single punch to blow up sixteen wooden stakes with one punch, using the power of the sea of ​​​​Qi in his body.

His name is Ye Zhongsheng.

He is also at the top of the list in the local area. His specialty is Ye Family Boxing. The moves may seem simple, but each punch can resonate with the whole body's energy, invisibly completing the superposition of potential energy. Every move is earth-shattering, making everyone remember him. name.

Then a guy named Ma Weibing blew up sixteen wooden stakes with the same punch. Chu Linguang recalled that this person was also mentioned in Uncle Du Guo's information collection report. He was also the top of the local list and had been dormant for four years. It took three full years to experience the Shiwandashan.

There were scars on his face and the back of his head, as if he had been injured by sharp weapons such as iron claws. There was a cold-blooded aura all over his body. He remained silent in the crowd. The candidates around him were intimidated by his aura and did not dare to Get too close to him.

Another half an hour later.

There are fewer and fewer candidates in the preparation area.

Zhang Yan finally walked into the sandy land and came to the wooden pile. As the local leader and Zhang Tao's only daughter, she also attracted much attention. Many people compared her and Yan Zhen to a pair of beautiful talents.

"boom!"

Zhang Yan punched out with a roar, and the fist was covered with a layer of energy shield. Compared with boys, Zhang Yan's punches were more beautiful and reserved, and the energy came out from his body.

Sixteen wooden stakes broke in response.

And it exploded almost at the same time, sending sawdust flying, easily achieving a first-class result.

Each of the sixteen wooden stakes requires [-] kilograms of strength to break. The sixteen wooden piles require at least [-] kilograms of strength. If you want to blow them up at the same time in an instant, the attack power must reach above. Thousands of catties.

This is extremely difficult for many candidates.

But for those who have reached the perfection of the Qi Sea, awakened the power of the wild, opened the six levels of dharma, and even obtained bloodline supernatural powers, they can usually do it with a little preparation.

This was when they were using their bare hands.

If you have a weapon in hand and can mobilize potential power, then any blow can surpass many people's imagination.

"Candidate Chu Linguang..."

A quarter of an hour after Zhang Yan walked down, Chu Linguang's name finally appeared in the registration voice.

Chu Linguang stood up and walked towards the sandy land, followed by Yan Chengdu and Lin Longde, who were in the other two groups.

At this moment, even Yan Zhen's eyes were fixed on Chu Linguang. He knew the strength of his younger brother Yan Chengdu. It was easy to win the ranking, but it was impossible to break into the top ten.

The same goes for the guy named Lin Longde. On the contrary, Chu Linguang is the guy he really needs to pay attention to.

"start!"

The examiner announces.

Chu Linguang didn't dare to raise his head. The sea of ​​energy roared in his body, and wild power roared out, and a small vortex of divine appearance appeared on the surface of his body.

"boom!"

Sixteen wooden piles exploded simultaneously without any suspense, turning into countless sawdust just like Yan Zhen, Hu Yuanwu, Ye Zhongsheng and others.

"Brother Yan's punch just now seems to have only used physical power. With my strength, simply using wild power, I might be able to blow up the wooden piles at the same time. However, it is safest to mobilize the power of the sea of ​​​​qi at the same time. Qi strength does not matter. No matter what, he had to obtain first-class results and rank the same as Brother Yan, otherwise it would be difficult to get in front of him.

Chu Linguang thought to himself.

He knew that with his current strength, whether he was simply inciting the power of the wild or the power of the sea, he could blow up sixteen wooden stakes with one punch. However, if there was any emergency, he could not rely on it, so he chose to use it at the same time. Two forces.

This approach was deeply recognized by Guo Wei.

Thinking back on Hei Hu's character, if Hei Hu had Chu Linguang's current strength, he might learn from Yan Zhen and pretend to punch randomly. If the effect was the same, the whole house would naturally be happy, but if he failed to blow up the stake, , the one who is embarrassed is himself.

"It's a little tricky."

Hu Yuanwu finally took a serious look at Chu Linguang.

"He has taken marrow cleansing liquid and his body has been cleansed of tendons and marrow. His physical strength is not weaker than ours."

Ye Zhongsheng and Hu Yuanwu stayed together.

"Yan Zhen made an agreement with him that the two of them would go to the end together."

Ma Weibing said.

"I heard that Yan Zhen has also been in Shiwan Mountain and has fought with the little prince of Turks many times. You have been in Shiwan Mountain for three years, haven't you met them?"

Hu Yuanwu looked at Ma Weibing curiously.

"Aren't you also in Shiwandashan? Why haven't I met you?"

Ma Weibing asked.

"Do you know where I went?"

Hu Yuanwu looked surprised.

"After four years of disappearing, where else can you go but Shiwanda Mountain? Is it possible that you can still enter Yuanchu Mountain to practice?"

Ma Weibing said sarcastically.

"Humph."

Hu Yuanwu's face turned dark instantly.

Yuanchu Mountain is the dream of each of them, but not everyone can achieve it. I believe Yan Zhen is not absolutely sure, unless he can really achieve the third level.

"Master."

After coming out of the examination room, Chu Linguang returned to Guo Wei.

"very good."

Guo Wei had a smile on his face, and Chu Linguang had a steady personality, which reassured him the most.

On the first day of the rural martial arts examination, in the strength category, more than [-] candidates achieved first-class results, and nearly a hundred candidates achieved first-class results.

In terms of strength, as long as they are in their prime, study hard, and nourish their flesh and blood, accumulated day and night, many senior martial arts scholars can break eleven wooden stakes with one punch.

They don't need to blow up sixteen wooden stakes like Yan Zhen. As long as the number of wooden stakes broken exceeds ten, they can obtain first-class results.

On the first day of the assessment, everyone's results were only announced, and there was no relevant ranking.

In the end, only [-]% of the more than [-] candidates were eliminated. Either these people's breathing techniques were not advanced enough to awaken the power of dragon and elephant, or their qualifications were really bad, or they had no other resources to support them, and their power growth had already reached a bottleneck. Even three wooden stakes cannot be broken.

Of course, a small number of them are candidates who take the provincial examination immediately after passing the Taoist examination. Because the training time is relatively short, and the breathing method they practice is not advanced enough, and they cannot eat monster meat, etc., their strength cannot reach the standard. It takes several years to stand out.

The next morning.

Everyone came to the martial arts test site again.

"I would like to announce that the second round is the rules and regulations of the boxing assessment and the performance evaluation criteria."

Feng Junyi said loudly.

After talking about a bunch of rules and regulations, he talked about the performance evaluation criteria: "A group of ten people, fighting against the soldiers with bare hands, who can stay in the encirclement for the longest time, whoever knocks down more soldiers, whose The higher the score.

If you fish in troubled waters and do not fight against the soldiers, even if you stay in the encirclement, your score will return to zero and you will lose the qualification to enter the next round.

In addition, after all the soldiers are knocked down, if there are multiple candidates in the circle, the assessment will continue until there is only the last candidate left in the circle.

Therefore, the final evaluation criteria for performance are the time spent in the circle, the number of defeated soldiers and the number of candidates in the same class. "

"Wow!"

……

After Feng Junyi announced the rules, the whole audience was in an uproar.

"Why have you changed everything?"

“It wasn’t like this last time!”

"In the last competition, whoever broke out of the encirclement the fastest had a higher score."

"You have completely changed. How can you still fish in troubled waters?"

"Is it clear that they want us to have a blood-and-blood fight with the soldiers? They have been fighting outside all year round. Even if they are not as strong as us, their combat experience is not something that we can deal with?"

"Destroy the government soldiers and kill each other with your own people."

"We are not our own people. We are all in a competitive relationship. The higher-ups set this rule because they don't want us to join a group to keep warm."

Many candidates complained endlessly.

When Wang Chao took part in the scientific examination for the first time, the rules and regulations in various places were not as detailed as they are now. The main criterion was the time it took to break out of the siege. Wang Chao was able to pass every time through clever tricks.

Nowadays, the martial arts examinations are becoming more and more stringent, and there are more and more rules and regulations. They are updated almost every time, and the difficulty of passing the examination is always increasing.

Some people will fail countless times if they fail once.

But this time the rules and regulations were completely reversed, more cruel than before, and caught many people off guard.

However, Wang Chao, who was sitting with Chu Linguang, breathed a sigh of relief.

In these years, he first worked as a pawnshop in the county government, enjoying a privileged life, and fighting head-on with others because he was too few. After coming to Yang Shaorong, he trained hard in the military camp.

If it were previous years, he would probably have stopped in the second round.

Fortunately, his strength has increased a lot and he has been trained in the military camp. Even if the second round is reversed, he will not be able to defeat him.

"Just to show everyone how hard Master Hu's fist is."

Black Tiger is gearing up. He likes melees the most. Previously in the wine street, he led a group of boys and charged head-on with the hostile forces.

Although it is not as bloody as the battlefield, Black Tiger fights happily every time.

"There is one more rule than the academy assessment."

Chu Linguang thought to himself.

In the last round of the academy that year, he, Yan Chengdu and several other people who entered the final round had to hold on until the end in the hands of a group of forbidden troops.

At that time, you could choose your own weapons.

Now it's replaced by bare hands.

Moreover, after defeating all the government soldiers, the candidates who are still in the circle must be kicked out of the circle. The system is much crueler than that of the academy.

But martial arts exams have always been like this.

Once you win the lottery, for many people, it’s like jumping over the dragon’s door. It’s understandable that the system is strict.

"Candidates are seated."

"Qi Shiwei..."

Without waiting for everyone to think too much, the second round of assessment began quickly.

Groups of ten people, multiple groups can play at the same time.

The vast sandy land is divided into five battle circles. Fifty people participate together each time, a total of more than [-] candidates, and the results can be obtained in one day.

After the candidates entered the venue, the government soldiers were in place. These people were transferred from other places. Their physical fitness and strength were as varied as the candidates present.

Candidates want to pass the exam to become a military examiner and get an official position. These soldiers want to be appreciated by the superiors through this performance and find a good job in the army.

There are dark horses here too.

In previous years, there were many places where one or two soldiers with astonishing skeletons appeared. During the service period, they held back and waited for the soldiers who would make a big splash today.

Most of these soldiers came from poor backgrounds and had no money at home to support them in learning boxing and martial arts. In order to get ahead, they had no choice but to join the army.

Learn boxing and breathing techniques in the military camp.

On weekdays, apart from going into battle to kill enemies, they don't have many opportunities to perform. Most of them are unknown, but a few can stand out in the training days and be appreciated by their superiors.

But not every soldier has such an opportunity. It can be said that most people have tried their best to get the opportunity to compete with the candidates. It is far more difficult than imagined to stand out again.

But nothing is absolute.

There are always a few guys with amazing bones who, through years of forbearance, defeated all the candidates at the martial arts examination site and were promoted to the Rockets.

He was even recommended by his superiors to leave the military and take the martial arts exam like other candidates.

In the sandy land.

Fifty candidates were seated.

Fifty government soldiers transferred from other places then entered together and confronted the candidates in their respective areas.

"start!"

When the examiner calls.

"Kill kill kill!"

Those soldiers from other places rushed towards the candidates as if they were going into battle to kill the enemy. They trained hard and often suffered from hunger. Once these candidates passed the exam, they would become their immediate superiors.

They are not convinced.

Why do some people live a more comfortable life than they do, and can ride on their heads in the future?

Therefore, every soldier of the government tried his best to knock all the candidates out of the circle, not only wanting to win for themselves, but also wanting to complain about themselves.

Unfortunately, although they have rich combat experience, the training resources they receive are far less than those of most candidates. Otherwise, they would not be able to join the army and would not be able to choose the martial arts examination.

In the battle circle where Qi Shiwei is.

His fists roared with force, and within ten rounds, he knocked three soldiers out of the circle, and then engaged in a melee with two soldiers.

In the circle he is in, because of his presence, the pressure on other candidates is relatively low, but the martial arts examination has a clear system, and the soldiers need to be defeated before the results will be counted.

So the remaining people also scrambled to attack the soldiers, even two against one.

After a while.

The ten soldiers were all kicked out of the circle by Qi Shiwei's group of candidates, and there were still six candidates left in the circle.

"Eat my punch."

Qi Shiwei attacked the strongest of the remaining five, and the remaining four also fought together.

In the end, Qi Shiwei survived until the end.

He single-handedly defeated four soldiers and three candidates, and won the first place in the group.

A quarter of an hour later.

It's Black Tiger's turn to play.

Black Tiger's blood was boiling, and he took the initiative to attack, knocking down three soldiers one after another, and found that apart from him, there were only three candidates left in the circle.

So he couldn't help but challenge the three of them: "You all come together!"

As soon as these words came out, the three people rushed forward.

Outside the examination room, Guo Wei's face turned black as coal.

after a while
  The three candidates who besieged the black tiger were knocked down one by one by the black tiger. The black tiger also came to Guo Wei with a bruised face. Although he won the first place in the group, he also paid the price for the limelight.

Seeing his appearance, Guo Wei finally sighed softly and didn't want to say more.

(Thanks to Xiaoyao Shenzun for the rewards for many times in a row. Sorry, I wanted to write more but couldn't. I will update it tomorrow and try to write more.)
