Chapter 382: Not Far Away

Going to Beijing to catch the exam is a big deal for every person who has a meritorious name, and Li Ming, as a family child who has attracted much attention from Qingsongguan, naturally attaches great importance to his career.

But Li Ming still didn't expect that he would have prepared the people who escorted him.

As a mortal country, although the Great Qian Empire has the force of the rivers and lakes, but when the force of the rivers and lakes is not ridiculously high, the scholars will always be of great use.

This is embodied in governing the country and the people and maintaining the functioning of society.

After all, no matter how strong a martial artist is, he can't conjure up resources out of thin air, as long as he still needs to eat, drink, and Lazar, he will inevitably need resources, and these resources will never be able to let these martial artists get them themselves.

Therefore, it is necessary for the vast number of ordinary people to operate a sound social system, and only a stable and healthy society can allow more people to enjoy better services.

What's more, the mortal martial arts of this world are not so invincible, even if the imperial army is an ordinary army, ordinary first-class martial artists can only carry out assassination.

The powerful armies of the Great Cadres are all warriors who have practiced martial arts since childhood, are properly trained, and are proficient in the art of war, wearing armor and holding spears and swords.

In this case, the role of the literati is more evident.

Therefore, although the forces of the rivers and lakes are very active, they are only the forces of the rivers and lakes after all, not the imperial court.

It is the imperial court that rules the world.

Therefore, Li Ming's martial arts talent is so good, and no one thinks there is anything wrong with continuing the scientific examination, because in the future, as long as Li Ming can go to high school and become a local official, then he is an adult who can determine the life and death of the people within his jurisdiction with one word.

At that point, what can't be done?

Even if it is a martial arts practice, there are a lot of people who send resources and cheats.

It's just that Li Ming is just a home disciple after all, and he really has to be surprised to be paid such attention.

But after thinking about it, Li Ming also understood that perhaps he underestimated the power of his talent, which refers not only to the talent in martial arts, but also to the talent in learning.

A talent who is both civil and military has a high probability of being reused in the future.

At that time, he will not be suitable to become such a big man's 'teacher', on the contrary, the current home disciple is more suitable.

In addition, he has been learning the secrets of Qingsongguan since he was a child, and he grew up under the teachings of the Qingsongguan Taoist, so what difference does it make if he is not a disciple of Qingsongguan Zhenchuan is better than a disciple of Qingsongguan?

In this case, it is difficult for Qingsongguan to pay so much attention to his affairs, and for this reason, he specially sent two Taoists to escort him, and also said the past.

Li Ming followed the preacher Xu Jin all the way inside, and after a short time, he arrived at a courtyard.

"Senior Brother Qingshi, Senior Brother Hengliang, I'm here."

Xu Jin knocked on the door, smiled and whispered, and after a while, the door was pushed open, and a Taoist with a long beard and a long sword appeared behind the door, smiling at Xu Jin who came with Li Ming.

"Senior Brother Xu Jin, please."

The bearded Taoist smiled and invited the two of them inside, a dark-skinned, but wearing a Taoist robe, with a sense of purity on his body, was walking in the sunlight in the courtyard, and when he saw Xu Jin coming in, he smiled and finished his work.

"Senior Brother Xu Jin, why are you here?"

The skin was dark, and there was a strong muscles on the body of a pure Taoist who could faintly be seen, but these muscles quickly disappeared after he finished his work, and then he asked Xu Jin with a smile.

His eyes were on Li Ming, who was following Xu Jin.

"Senior Brother Qingshi, Senior Brother Hengliang, this is my beloved disciple Li Ming, that is, the person who the Lord Guan said that you want to escort."

Xu Jin Taoist smiled and introduced to Li Ming beside him, and then pointed to the Taoist with dark skin and pure temperament: "Li Ming, this is your Uncle Liu Qingshi." ”

"Hello uncle!"

Li Ming respectfully spoke beside him.

"Good, good."

Liu Qingshi looked at the young man in front of him with a smile and nodded with a smile.

"Li Ming, this is your Uncle Wang Hengliang."

Xu Jin smiled again and pointed to the side of the Taoist with a much whiter skin, but with a big beard on his face, Li Ming followed and saluted: "Uncle Shi is good." ”

The bearded Taoist priest smiled and nodded.

"I have long heard from the head that Senior Brother Xu Jin has accepted a genius apprentice with extraordinary talent and unparalleled talent, and it is even more rare that he is tall and burly, and his appearance is extraordinary and handsome.

Liu Qingshi looked at Li Ming with a smile and opened his mouth with admiration.

"Young talents, nothing more than this."

Wang Hengliang on the side also smiled and nodded, and Li Ming waved his hand again and again when he heard this: "The body and appearance are nothing but nothing, and the strength is the skill of the body, and the two elders are so masters who were selected by the Taoist temple to protect my life, which is really rare!" ”

"Hahaha, don't praise each other for being modest, your Uncle Liu Qingshi, Uncle Wang Hengliang are the ones who have a good relationship with me, they are not outsiders to each other, and the two of them are also characters with superb martial arts in the view, and the drama is a first-class master, with their escort, your master and I can rest assured."

Xu Jin smiled when he saw the appearance of the three of them, and then said that they didn't have to be like this, otherwise it would be too unusual.

"Senior Brother Qingshi, Senior Brother Hengliang, Li Ming is here this time to prepare to set off to Beijing to take the exam in the near future, and I want to ask for the protection of the Taoist Temple, I am here to bring you to know one or two first."

After Xu Jin finished speaking, he pointed to Li Ming beside him, and said with a smile to the two senior brothers and junior brothers in front of him.

"Oh, since that's the case, then you have to hurry up and show the head of the master."

Liu Qingshi raised his eyebrows in surprise, and then couldn't help but say.

"Well, your Uncle Qingshi walks the rivers and lakes all the year round, and rarely returns to the Guannei, this skin is tanned, and he is extremely experienced in the rivers and lakes, so he has to listen to him for anything in the future."

"Your Uncle Hengliang has been dealing with all kinds of troubles in the province all the year round, and he has excellent fighting skills and strong ability to press the field, and he will help in the event of a dispute."

"You have little experience in the rivers and lakes, and on the way to the capital, no matter what happens, you have to listen to your two uncles and uncles."

Xu Jin smiled and nodded to his senior brother and brother, and then did not rush to take them to see the master, but introduced Li Ming again, and then saw Li Ming nodding seriously, and then rushed to the place where the head was located with Liu Qingshi and Wang Hengliang and Li Ming with a smile on their faces.

Not long after, in the main hall, Li Ming saw a Taoist with a half-white beard, and the other party heard Li Ming's intention, invited him to sit with a smile, and asked him on the spot what he wanted to do once he became an official in the future.

"Protect the peace of one side, seek the limit of martial arts, and ask the immortals."

Li Ming chuckled at the corner of his mouth, he didn't mean to hide it, he knew that the words that the head asked him were the last confirmation of the chips he bet.

At this time, it was not only a choice for him, but also a choice for Li Ming's view of Qingsong.

Otherwise, once they are not suitable for each other, they will not cooperate with each other at the critical moment in the future, which is not only bad for Qingsongguan, but also bad for Li Ming.

can make it clear in advance, even if each other's opinions are not very consistent, but they can retain a certain degree of cooperation, which Li Yang is also happy to see.

"Oh, ask the fairy ......"

The head stroked his beard, raised his eyebrows, and then nodded with a smile: "In this case, I Qingsongguan should protect you in these times." ”

"Liu Qingshi, Wang Hengliang, you two must be careful on the road, don't be careless, and you will do your best to ensure the safety of your master and nephew, understand?"

The head looked at Li Ming with a smile, and then said solemnly to Liu Qingshi and Wang Hengliang.

"Understood."

Liu Qingshi and Wang Hengliang both nodded, and the head of the house nodded: "Well, since the day of going to Beijing to catch the exam is approaching, then prepare to prepare, let's go down the mountain with my nephew today, and only return when the capital is finished and Li Ming's nephew goes home." ”

"Yes, Uncle Master."

Liu Qingshi and Wang Hengliang immediately complied, then turned around and left to pack up their things, the head waved his hand to Li Ming, and looked at him and said seriously: "It's a good thing to want to be immortal, but remember, immortal fate can't be forced, you can only pay attention to fate!" ”

"Compared to us in this world, immortal cultivators are the strong who are high above, and the weak seek the fate of the strong, they should do their duty, be cautious, and don't force it, otherwise, once they are angered, they will be turned into ashes in an instant, can you understand?"

The head of the family looked at the little disciple at home who he was also very optimistic about, and asked solemnly.

"Disciple understands, thank you for the teachings!"

Li Ming's expression moved, and he replied respectfully.

"Well, your talent and talent are extraordinary whether it is practicing martial arts or practicing literature, I believe that you will definitely have a time to take off in the future, the [Qingsong True Qi] in the door is a martial art related to the cultivation of immortal exercises, it may be beneficial for you to seek immortal methods in the future, and after you [Mixed Yuan Gong] are completed, remember to practice."

For the people of this world, the existence of immortal cultivators is not a secret, it's just like ordinary people talking about the space station, which everyone knows exists, but it is too far away from themselves.

In addition, it is not a good thing to talk about immortal cultivators, and if it is heard by passing immortal cultivators, it is easy to cause disaster, so it is rarely mentioned in ordinary times.

But for a martial arts sect like Qingsongguan, it is naturally indispensable to have a better understanding of immortal cultivators, after all, with the vastness of the Great Qian's territory, there must be immortal cultivators.

And the height that the martial arts sect can reach has naturally become easier to reach than ordinary people, and the head of Qingsongguan naturally has a certain understanding of immortal cultivators, so he has this advice.

"The apprentice has written it down, and when the [Mixed Yuan Gong] is completed, he will definitely come back to practice [Qingsong True Qi]"

Li Ming nodded seriously, and then in the nod of the master, he turned around and withdrew from the main hall, and walked towards Liu Qingshi and Wang Hengliang's residence with a thoughtful face.

"It seems that the way to obtain the inheritance of immortal cultivators in this world may not be as difficult as I thought before."

On the way, Li Ming couldn't help but think lightly in his heart, in this way, the way to contact immortal cultivators after the imperial examination would be more stable.

The corners of Li Ming's mouth also smiled, and he couldn't help but shake his head, it seemed that he had thought too much before.

For a great world of immortal cultivators, although there is such a big difference between immortal cultivators and mortals, you must know that immortal cultivators are also cultivated by mortals.

If you want to maintain the fresh blood of the immortal cultivation world, you will inevitably have contact with the mortal world, so although the immortal cultivation world is mysterious, it is by no means a forbidden knowledge.

Thinking in his heart, Li Ming also felt a little relieved in his heart, and he strode to the courtyard where the two uncles and uncles were, and he was very enthusiastic to help them pack their luggage together.

"No need, walking the rivers and lakes, you only need to bring your own accessories, and silver, nothing else matters."

Seeing Li Ming's movements, Liu Qingshi smiled and spoke, waved his hand, and then tied a package and praised it on his shoulder, and held a long sword on his body in the other hand. ”

"There are so many evil gentry in this world, just find two to get rid of the evil, and there is something missing."

Wang Hengliang on the other side added with a smile, he simply carried a package and a sword: "Of course, you have to have a good pair of eyes, don't provoke people who shouldn't be provoked, otherwise you won't take away the things you might need, and your little life will be left." ”

"This journey is all dependent on the support of Uncle Shi and Uncle Shi!"

Li Ming smiled at the corner of his mouth when he heard this, and arched his hand seriously at the two Taoist priests, Liu Qingshi waved his hand indifferently, and smiled on his face: "As long as you can listen to us, it's easy to say, what I'm most afraid of is that you can't listen to us, so it's troublesome." ”

"On the way, I will definitely listen to my uncle and uncle."

Li Ming nodded affirmatively, and both of them nodded with a smile, and then went with Li Ming to bid farewell to his master, and then went down the mountain with his things.

The three of them were all masters of martial arts, and they carried their true qi and galloped like horses in the mountains, and rushed back to Li Ming's house before noon.

Then at noon, they had a nourishing and medicinal meal together at Li Ming's house, brought a big package, and in the afternoon, they each rode a horse and said goodbye to Master Li.

"My son, you must pay attention to safety on the road, and everything is based on your own safety."

Master Li sent Li Ming all the way to ten miles outside the town before staying, to his last advice, Li Ming nodded heavily, and then bowed down, and under the eyes of Master Li, he rode on a horse with the two knights of Qingsongguan and embarked on the road to the capital.

"I hope my son has a smooth sailing trip."

Watching the three of them disappear quickly from sight, Master Li sighed with emotion, then sighed and turned around and returned to Linshan Town.

The three rode along the hard dirt road for an afternoon, and stopped at a roadside inn.
