Chapter 13: Punch Me
After sending Li Xiaowan back to the room, Li Xijing quickly returned to his bed and lay down.
But I couldn't sleep after tossing and turning, and my mind was full of cranky thoughts.
According to Li Xiaowan, there are many ways for Confucianism to improve its strength.
Reading books is the most basic and simple.
Further, it is to be a teacher with others, preaching and receiving karma to solve doubts.
And those top Confucians, through writing books and sayings, spread their knowledge to the world. One can imagine how astonishing the author's cultivation will be with each book that comes out.
"I received twelve years of compulsory education in my last life, and I have read hundreds of books, so wouldn't it be able to take off directly if I copied a copy of the Analects or something?"
"Moreover, you can make money by selling books, although we don't have to worry about food and clothing now, but we will eventually need to change a place to live in the future, this house is too far away from the academy and the Taoist academy. ”
"But for such a long time, I only seem to remember a few sentences in the Analects, such as 'knowing is knowing, not knowing is not knowing', and 'if you have friends from afar, you can still eat'. ”
"What's behind the words of the "Three Character Classic"..."If you don't teach, your father's fault'?"
"Tang poems and Song poems... I remember a lot because I temporarily hugged the Buddha's feet seven days before the crossing. But with so many famous sentences for the ages, wouldn't it be too shocking to publish them all in one book?"
"In this way, there are only some story novels. Although I have seen the Three Kingdoms of Red Mansions or something, I have almost forgotten the plot. ”
"Damn, I didn't expect that I read so many books in my previous life, and I can clearly recall the plot, but there is only such a ...... as a certain immortal."
"No, it's good if you don't write this kind of book and don't directly chop me to death, let alone show your strength.
And if you let my sister know that my own personality collapsed directly, I can't save the kind of ...... that I can't save it."
After thinking about it for a long time, Li Xijing fell asleep.
When I woke up, it was already dark.
Since he was preparing to take his first step in Luo'an City today, Li Xijing got up early in the morning and took a shower and changed into a set of clean clothes.
Looking at his handsome and extraordinary face and chic temperament in the mirror, he couldn't help but admire himself.
"It's a pity that the appearance of this world can't be eaten, if I looked like this in my previous life, I could have struggled for 20 years less. ”
"Li Dajing, let's go eat Aunt Wang's baked cakes today. Li Xiaowan's voice came from behind him.
The two-day holiday of their academy has passed, and Li Xiaowan can't sleep lazily today, so she got up early.
The brother and sister walked out of the courtyard together, and after having breakfast at the entrance of the alley, Li Xiaowan walked in the direction of Luo'an Academy in Xicheng.
Li Xijing walked in the direction of the southern Taoist courtyard.
Since letting Li Xiaowan teach himself Confucianism can be a win-win situation, then there is no need for him to go to the academy to study.
Unless he can directly worship the great Confucian sect of the academy, if he lets ordinary lecturers teach him knowledge, wouldn't it be a blood loss?
As the saying goes, fertilizer and water do not enter the fields of outsiders, and it is better for him to wait for Li Xiaowan to give him a lecture every day.
So he just needs to worship the monastery.
...
Luo'an Daoyuan is located in Nancheng Street, and almost half of Nancheng is the territory of the Daoyuan.
Li Xijing circled around the courtyard wall for a long time before finding the courtyard gate, which made him curse corruption in his heart.
But think about it, the Taoist Academy teaches how to use the Taoist true qi, and it definitely needs a lot of martial arts training grounds, practice rooms and the like, if the territory is small, the students of the Taoist Academy will not be able to practice on weekdays.
He originally thought that as long as he found a Taoist academy to teach and showed that he could use Taoist true qi, he could directly register and enter the academy to practice.
But I didn't expect that if I wanted to join the Taoist Academy, I still needed to be assessed.
"Damn, when you go to the other world, you still need to take exams to ask for it. ”
He couldn't help but feel a little apprehensive in his heart, after all, he was just a rookie who had only stepped into the threshold of Taoism yesterday, and he didn't know how difficult the assessment of this Taoist Academy would be.
The person in charge of assessing him is a young man in purple with an average appearance and an easy-going temperament.
According to his self-introduction, Li Xijing knew that this person's name was Wang Cheng, and he was also a student of the Taoist Academy.
Whether it is the appearance or the name, they all belong to the kind of passerby who is unrecognizable when thrown into the pile.
"Hehe, you don't have to worry, the assessment won't be too difficult, the Daoist Academy just wants to know how much true qi you have now. ”
Wang Cheng saw that Li Xijing was a little nervous, and comforted him: "Even if you fail the assessment, it will not cancel your qualification to enter the Taoist Academy to study, but it will affect your study allowance." ”
When you say that, I get even more nervous... Li Xijing thought complainingly.
If you enter the Taoist academy but don't have a cultivation subsidy, you can only use Li Xiaowan's money for food and clothing in the future, where will you put your dignity as an elder brother?
"I hope that the senior brother can take care of one or two. ”
Worried that the assessment would be difficult, Li Xijing stuffed a silver ticket into Wang Cheng's sleeve without a trace, hoping that he could release water for himself.
Wang Cheng's expression changed, and he immediately returned the ticket to Li Xijing, and said righteously:
"The rules of our Taoist Academy are strict, and if you are found to be receiving money in the admission assessment, you will be expelled and discharged from the hospital. ”
Li Xijing's expression froze.
It's actually an upright person, bother.
You said that you are so upright and don't take bribes, so why did you stare at me with a smile just now, what are you hinting at...... Li Xijing was speechless.
But seeing that Wang Cheng changed his face again, he patted him on the shoulder very quickly, and said with a smile:
"Invite Senior Brother to Tianxian Tower tonight...... No, Tianxian Tower collapsed last night, just invite me to go to Miaoyin Fang to listen to a little song in the evening. ”
It turned out to be an LSP... Li Xijing hurriedly agreed.
Although the cost of going to Hualou will not be low, it is obviously worth the luxury compared to the long-term thing such as practicing subsidies.
I promised last night that I wouldn't take the initiative to go to a place like Hualou. But this time it's just for the future, and it's forced to be helpless, so naturally it doesn't count.
Wang Cheng was in a very good mood at the moment, and he was also very pleasing to Li Xijing, and soon took the latter to the place of assessment.
It is a small martial arts training ring.
Li Xijing thought that the other party had brought him here to have a discussion with him, and he couldn't help but be a little worried.
After all, he had just entered the threshold of Taoism, and the other party was a Taoist student who had practiced for several years.
Even if you release the water, it will be difficult for you to beat him.
saw the young man in purple walking to the ring, patting his chest, and smiling at Li Xijing.
"Senior brother, use all the true elements in your body to punch me, and I will be able to know the level of your true qi. ”
Well...... It turned out to be just a punch......
Li Xijing was relieved.
But...
Looking at Wang Cheng's thin arms and legs, he was still a little worried: "Senior Brother Wang Cheng, do you really want to punch with all your might?"
"Senior brother, just do your best. ”
Wang Chenghao smiled dryly: "Senior brother, you don't have to worry, I have been practicing in the Taoist Academy for three years, and I have a record of hunting monsters."
You only entered the threshold of Taoism yesterday, so you don't have to worry about hurting me. ”
Li Xijing was relieved at this time.
Thinking about it, I am a rookie who has been practicing for a day and a half, and I am still worried that I will hurt the other party, which is simply floating.
So he stepped into the ring, gathered all the true yuan in his dantian into his right hand, and clenched his palms into a fist.
"Senior Brother Wang Cheng, I'm here!"
With a low shout, Li Xijing rushed forward suddenly, and swung his fist at the purple-clothed young man who was standing with his hands in his hands, looking calm and relaxed, and with a superior posture.
