Chapter 63: A Shang
Walking out of the Wudao Courtyard and returning to the small courtyard at No. 12 Wutong Lane in Nancheng, Qin Li was reading seriously, and when he saw Li Molan coming back, he hurriedly walked out of the room and asked, "Xiaolan, how did you do in the exam?"
Her eyes were full of concern, although when the young man left, he was ashamed to declare that this kind of exam must be a piece of cake, but after all, it was the entrance test of the Enlightenment Academy, which was always worrying. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
Li Molan didn't mention the cultivation qualification test, but said calmly: "There is nothing wrong with the opening assessment, if nothing else, I will be a student of the Enlightenment Academy in five days." ā
This is obviously good news, indicating that the exam is easy and that he is confident, but his expression is a little gloomy.
Qin Li looked at him and said confusedly, "Then why do you look a little worried?"
Li Molan shook her head and said, "It's just a little uncomfortable. ā
Qin Li said: "If something doesn't go well, you have to say it." ā
Li Molan naturally didn't explain the reason, rolled her eyes, and pouted: "I told you that you don't understand, so forget it." ā
The little girl was suddenly angry, her hands were on her hips and she was about to speak, but she heard Li Molan say: "Although you have mastered the basics, but you still have to be the same today, I will teach you to read and write, and cut out all the words that are out of the door for you." ā
"Huh...... I've pretty much mastered it, and there's no obstacle to reading anymore. When the little girl heard this, she lost her temper and said weakly.
"No, I've only read a few books, and you say that you're almost there, and you will cultivate demons in the future but you are more inclined to cultivate, how can you do without a powerful divine soul?"
Li Molan said solemnly, like a serious and responsible division commander.
Qin Li muttered, "You see you're so tired today, take a break." ā
Li Molan was not ready to give the little girl any chance to be lazy, this time he took out the "Cultivation Guide" that had been read by him thousands of times, and could even be memorized backwards, and said: "In a few days, I will go to the Hidden Scripture Tower of the Enlightenment Institute to help you find the demon cultivation method, this cultivation path will guide you to look good, and it is the best choice to strengthen the soul." ā
The little girl snorted weakly.
It was getting dark, and the two went to the alley to eat two bowls of noodles, with the strong capital of the two of them now, it was enough for them to eat good toppings, at least adding a large row of abalone was not a problem, and the money spent was not extravagant, and Li Molan was still thinking about whether to rent a carriage for a long time to go to school in the Enlightenment Academy.
Of course, the results of the entrance examination of the Enlightenment Academy have not yet come out, and he has even been recognized as unable to cultivate, but this does not prevent him from still recognizing himself as a student of the Enlightenment Academy.
The temple occupies such a large place in the east of the city, except for the meadows, flowers, trees, bridges and weeping willows used for ornamentation, all the buildings that should be there are very complete, and it is said that its dormitories are quite luxurious, so that most students are willing to choose accommodation.
Of course Li Molan won't go to stay, otherwise wouldn't she be blind to her own house?
Besides, the accommodation can't take Qin Li's girl to go.
So I had to rent a carriage, and recently the business of the winery has been getting better and better, and the orders have been drifting like snowflakes, which has made the owner of the winery with a dream very happy, and even the dividends sent have risen, and the small No. 12 courtyard of Wutong Lane has been called magnanimous.
After eating dinner and returning to the courtyard, under the supervision of Li Molan, Qin Li's reading voice echoed until the third watch in the middle of the night.
......
......
Five days later.
At noon today, Li Molan got up very late, after all, although today is the day when the results of the assessment are released, he did not ask to go at what time, and he had already guessed the results, so it was okay for him to sleep lazily.
After washing up and eating breakfast, she waved her hand to the little girl who was studying at home, and Li Molan rode a long-term carriage with a luxurious charter in the direction of Yichang Street.
The sky is very bright, the sun is very warm, the willow trees that sprout in the spring of March are swaying with the wind, and there are more catkins like snowflakes flying all over the city.
The spring sky is full of willow catkins, which can be regarded as a major scenery in Lin'an City.
Following the empty road in the middle of the street that was specially given to carriages to walk, Li Molan saw from a distance that there were also many carriages and horses parked at the entrance of the Enlightenment Academy.
In terms of quantity, it is several times less than five days ago, after all, there is no such strict time limit, naturally many candidates will choose to walk, and even because of lack of self-confidence, I am afraid that there are many who dare not come.
When she arrived at her destination, Li Molan got out of the carriage and walked into the wide-open gate of the Enlightenment Academy through the willow shade.
I walked along the bluestone path through the scenery I saw five days ago, walked across the marble bridge, glanced at the koi in the stream by the way, and then walked through the rain-sheltering promenade, and saw the figure on the stone lawn in the distance.
There were a lot of people, but not all of them gathered around the bulletin board on the edge of the stone lawn.
Most of the people who didn't know their results stood in other parts of the stone flat with their faces like ashes after learning about their results, talking carefully, probably comforting each other and warming each other.
Li Molan walked through the crowd and came to the crowd in front of the bulletin board, tiptoeing, trying to take a look at his results.
In fact, he didn't need to look anymore, just listening to the discussions of the people around him was enough to know the result.
"I saw Wang He's name, he turned out to be the second place in the opening assessment of the Enlightenment Academy!"
"Oh my God, it's B! His comprehensive score turned out to be B! Such a difficult roll, being able to take a C is enough to burn incense and worship the Buddha, he turned out to be B!
"Yes, but I don't think the third place is bad, it's also B, only a little worse than Wang He Wushuang, it seems that he is a genius from the Yuan Academy. ā
"I know this third place, he is the first place in the Yuan Academy's academic year assessment, and he has thrown off the second place by a lot, it seems to be called a paper cherisher. ā
"Poof, paper, what's this weird surname?"
"Paper, paper cherishes people, this name has a story......
Then there is a lot of conjecture of bloody bridges.
"Don't underestimate him, this is a monster who can stand out from the Yuan Academy and then come to the Enlightenment Academy for assessment, I heard that he has already cultivated. ā
"Yes, I've also heard of this person, this paper cherisher and Wang He Wushuang are said to be opponents. ā
"The Yuan Academy and the Wang He family have always been at odds, and it is normal for them to be opponents. ā
At this time, a candidate who came to see the results interjected: "This first place...... What's the reason?"
As he asked, everyone next to him shook their heads.
And many of the candidates who heard this raised their heads with complicated faces, looking at the name that ranked first on the ranking list and was far ahead.
Li Molan...... Who is this man? Haven't heard of it...... But this result is too fake, right?" said one of the candidates leisurely.
Another short candidate also nodded in agreement, and said: "Jiashang, can this kind of paper be taken on Jiashang? Even if I am given an original paper the night before the exam, I can't get Jiashang, this Li Molan is either sent by the seniors in the Enlightenment Academy to tease us, or there are some unknown secrets." ā
Listening to his analysis, everyone next to him nodded in agreement, many people felt that this Li Molan was probably a Daomen senior pretending to be a candidate and specially teasing them.
However, Li Molan, who was the person concerned, was in the crowd at the moment, and after listening to their words, she didn't know what to say.
He admired the reasoning skills of these people, showed a certain level of admiration, and then he didn't even bother to glance at the ranking, and walked away.
Upper ...... It was exactly the same as he expected, but the dead old man in the Enlightenment Temple decided that he couldn't cultivate, didn't this cut off his idea of going up the mountain?
Li Molan came to participate in the opening assessment of the Enlightenment Academy, not just to enter a Enlightenment Academy.
He wants to enter the Daomen, and he wants to learn the core exercises of the Daomen, the Secret Book of the True Dao.
He always felt that this kind of top-level exercise looking at the North Sea was worthy of him.
But now that it is judged that he cannot cultivate the Dao, then even if the treasured exercises in the Enlightenment Academy can be opened to him, and he can't see the real top-level exercises, then it will be meaningless.
Li Molan stood on the edge of the stone flat, like a lonely person who no one cared about, looking at the mixed crowd on the stone flat.
His eyes were a little sharp.
He really didn't have a way to prove that he could cultivate the Dao, because the strong true qi flowing in his body would automatically turn into sword qi, shattering the aura that came from the Dao Stone, and it was uncontrollable.
This also means that the Daomen will not open the Secret Book of the True Path to him.
This problem is very big, and it also makes him very distressed.
Is it possible that you must first learn some rotten exercises, enter the realm of enlightenment to prove yourself, and then abandon your cultivation and turn to practice the secret scriptures of the true path? You must know that other realms can be interrupted and renewed, but only when you are in the realm of enlightenment, you cannot interrupt and renew your exercises, and this will affect your own soul.
Therefore, most cultivators are practicing to the end, even geniuses like Wang He Wushuang or Paper Xiren will come to the Enlightenment Institute not for the exercises, but to find challenges to sharpen themselves.
"It's annoying, it's all the old turtle's fault. Li Molan muttered annoyedly, looking at the crowd of candidates in front of her, but her eyes seemed to appear as if she was sitting in a small pavilion in the lake that day, and then she was slapped away by him.
......
......
In the corner of the stone floor, there were two standing together.
The expressions of these two people were very calm, and they didn't look fierce, but when the people around them saw them, they couldn't help but retreat.
That's why this corner looks empty.
Wang He Wushuang had an arrogant look, as if this pride had been hanging on his face since he was born and could not fade away, and even the temperament of a son on his body was covered up.
It's just that there is some weakness and unwillingness in his eyes when he looks in the direction of the notice board.
"What is the origin of that first place, do you know?" Wang He Wushuang turned his head and looked at the man beside him.
The man next to him looked a little older, somewhere between youth and teenager, wearing a white coat with a calm and calm face.
Hearing Wang Hewushuang's question, the man in the white coat shook his head.
"I haven't heard of this person, whether it's my Yuan Academy, or the Emperor Dao Sect, or Long Qianfeng, there has never been a reputation for this person. ā
He said softly: "It should be a mysterious genius who suddenly appeared, and even someone from Qiu Ming Mountain or Emperor Zizhai may not be able to say. ā
"Paper cherishes, aren't you joking?" Wang He Wushuang frowned and said: "The people of Emperor Zizhai or the people of Qiuming Mountain, why don't they stay on their own territory and come to the territory of Daomen?
Paper Xiren lowered his head, looked at his white coat like a piece of white paper, lowered his voice and said, "I said...... In addition to the saint, how many people in the Daomen can teach him a lesson? The older one can't save face, and the young one ...... You and I are almost Daomen, do you think we are his opponents?"
Wang He Wushuang showed ruthlessness and said, "When I enter the Dragon's Eye Realm, can't I still beat it?" At that time, whether it is you or that Li Molan, who is still my opponent?"
Paper Xiren sneered, and said lightly: "What if your realm is high? You should know that a genius like the Holy Maiden can defeat the powerhouse of the Dragon Eye Realm at the beginning of the Three Realms, and only rely on his own sword cultivation by virtue of the Holy Maiden's swordsmanship. The real strength and weakness are not just based on the level of the realm. ā
Wang He Wushuang snorted coldly, and felt that he couldn't refute it, so he had to be silent.
Seeing that he was silent, he said: "Actually, he may not be as you think, maybe he is a scholar who has read poetry and books, and he has been studying hard for ten years and is only waiting for this moment, and his soul is extremely powerful, knowing astronomy and geography, not necessarily a cultivator who hides secrets." ā
Wang He Wushuang asked rhetorically, "Do you think it's possible?"
Paper Xiren was stunned, scratched his head in embarrassment, and said with a smile: "It seems that it is not possible." ā
