Ning Que actually heard from more than one person that he did not have the qualifications to practice, but he was unwilling to give up and wanted to try again.
Because his enemy is a practitioner, even a great practitioner, Ning Que cannot practice, and there is absolutely no way he can take revenge.
"Master Lu, can't the acupoints of the Snow Mountain Qi Sea be opened?" Ning Que looked at Lu Qingchen with a expectant look on his face.
"It's difficult." Lu Qingchen sighed: "Everyone's Qi orifices are innate and cannot be opened through acquired means. Only those who have penetrated the eleven orifices can sense the vitality of heaven and earth. This is the iron law of the Haotian world."
Ning Que frowned and asked again: "People say that the master in the academy is very powerful, isn't there anything he can do?"
"Master's cultivation level is very high. It is not comparable to ordinary people like us. I don't know if he can do it." Lu Qingchen said:
"I heard that you are going to take the college entrance examination?"
Ning Tuang nodded and said, "Lao Ma helped me get the recommendation from the military department."
Lu Qingchen said: "The academy has teachings without distinction. Although you can't practice, you can still be admitted to the academy. But if I were you, I might give up."
"I will never give up." Ning Que stood up and vowed: "I will definitely be admitted to the academy."
Lu Qingchen shook his head and did not persuade him. He had lived for decades and had seen too many young people like Ning Que. However, cultivation was a gift from Haotian, and not everyone in this world could have this gift.
?The fact is that 99% of people in the world are unable to practice. Only a very few lucky people have the qualifications to practice.
Li Yu then opened his mouth and said to Ning Que: "Master Ning, if you are not admitted to the academy, you can come to my princess's residence. With your talents, you can also get great development in the military department."
Naturally, Ning Que was unwilling to take refuge in Li Yu. The fire in his heart was not extinguished and he would continue to work hard.
There was no talking all night, and in the early morning of the next day, just as everyone was preparing to set off for Chang'an, Wang Gang noticed the sound of horse hooves.
"There is a cavalry unit approaching. The sound of horse hooves should be light armored cavalry." Wang Gang reminded Li Yu.
"Could it be Xia Hou's killer again?" Li Yu asked in horror.
"I don't know, but we must leave right away. The sound of horse hooves will arrive within half a stick of incense at most." Wang Gang said, "The carriage is going too slow. We'd better ride horses. The two of us ride together. As long as we get to Chang'an, we'll be safe."
"
"Okay." It was about his own life, so Li Yu didn't make his own decision this time.
Yesterday, Sang Sang chose three good horses from the horses left by the horse thieves. Ning Que took Sang Sang to ride one, Wang Gang took Xiao Man to ride another horse, and Li Yu took Lu Qingchen.
Li Yuyuan had been married to the grassland for several years, and he had developed a good riding and shooting skills, and he was not slow to lead Lu Qingchen.
They are not far from Chang'an and can be reached in just one day on horseback.
Not long after Wang Gang and others left, a group of cavalry came to the lake.
The cavalry were all wearing the Tang Dynasty standard armor, and the leader was wearing the captain's battle armor of the Tang Imperial Guard Army.
"Captain Hua, there are signs of being stationed here. It's likely that they are Her Highness the Princess and her entourage."
The leader glanced at the fire and said, "The fire is still warm. Your Highness the Princess shouldn't have gone far. Let's chase her."
This man's name is Hua Shanyue, a captain of the Imperial Forest Army of the Tang Dynasty. He was specially ordered by the King of Tang to come to meet Li Yu.
Not long ago, Li Qingshan, the national counselor, divined that Li Yu's life was in danger, so he immediately reported to the King of Ming Dynasty and asked for this group of soldiers to leave Chang'an.
It's just that Li Yu was frightened by the assassin, so he ran away without being able to distinguish between friend and foe. Instead, he missed the person who was responding to him.
When Huashan Mountain quickly caught up with Li Yu and his party, the majestic Chang'an City was already in sight.
Li Yu was very excited to see Hua Shanyue and knew that he had made an mistake and had spent a long time escaping in vain.
"Your Highness Princess, Your Majesty asked me to take you back to Chang'an. As long as I am here, no one can harm you." Hua Shanyue knelt down on one knee facing Li Yu and said loudly.
Li Yu glanced at Wang Gang and Lu Qingchen and said, "Thank you, Lieutenant Lao Hua. These are all my distinguished guests. Please arrange to move into Chang'an together."
Wang Gang waved his hand and said: "No need, I will go by myself."
Li Yu said anxiously: "Mr. Wang, why did you leave alone? But what did Li Yu do wrong?"
Hua Shanyue looked slightly sideways, feeling that Li Yu was too polite to Wang Gang. When would the proud eldest princess of the Tang Dynasty be so polite to a young man?
"I don't like the excitement, and I don't like to deal with those high officials." Wang Gang glanced at the arrogant Hua Shanyue and said, "Since the person who will take care of you has arrived, I can consider it as fulfilling General Ma's instructions.
Your Highness Princess, don’t forget your promise, when are you ready to give me the one hundred taels of gold?”
Li Yu said: "Mr. Wang, please forgive me, I really don't have that much gold on me. I'm afraid I need to go to Chang'an to give you the one hundred taels. If you don't mind the trouble, you can go to the princess's house to get it."
Wang Gang curled his lips and said: "It's really troublesome, forget it, I still have to get a letter of recommendation anyway, so I can only make one trip."
When Huashanyue heard Wang Gang's words, his lungs almost exploded with anger.
"How dare you, a mere commoner, dare to be rude to Her Highness the Princess? What kind of crime should you be punished for?"
Wang Gang glanced at Hua Shanyue with a half-smile but not a smile, and Li Yu quickly stood up and said, "Captain Hua, please don't be rude to Mr. Wang. He is not only my princess's savior, but also a mind master in the realm of non-confusion."
Hua Shanyue was shocked, and then he realized that Wang Gang, who looked ordinary, was actually a practitioner.
As soon as Wang Gang pulled the reins, he ignored Huashanyue and just left a word to Li Yu.
"Remember to hurry up and prepare what I need."
After saying that, Wang Gang rode away.
"Old Wang, wait for me." Ning Que pulled Sang Sang and also rode on the horse, chasing Wang Gang without even saying hello to Li Yu.
Li Yu looked at the retreating figures of the three people and was a little dazed for a moment.
"Mom, can I see Uncle Wang again?" Xiaoman pulled Li Yu's hand.
"We will meet. As long as we are in Chang'an, we will have a chance to meet." Li Yu said to Xiaoman.
…………
Wang Gang and Ning Que led their horses into Chang'an. As the most majestic city in the world, Chang'an was much more majestic and magnificent than the other Chang'an in Wang Gang's memory.
After the three of them entered the city, they followed the flow of people towards the inner city, but soon lost their sense of direction.
Ning Que was lucky enough to find a horse dealer and sold both horses, giving Wang Gang half of the money.
"There are three of us, shouldn't the money from selling the horse be divided into three parts?" Sang Sang objected.
"You two ride on the same horse, of course you can only get one share of the money." Wang Gang tossed the money and joked to Sangsang.
"It's not fair, I think it's more appropriate to divide it into three parts." Sangsang pouted.
"Okay! The money has been divided. Don't make any more trouble." Ning Que touched Sang Sang's head.
"Old Wang, there is still some time left for the academy's entrance examination. Where can we stay during this time? We can't stay in inns all the time! I heard that Chang'an is very expensive!"
Wang Gang said: "I'm going to use the gold given by Li Yu to buy a small house in Chang'an, and I can deal with it casually in the past two days."
Ning Que rolled his eyes and said, "Old Wang, since we all have no place to live, why not rent a house together."
"Share rent?" Wang Gang glanced at Sang Sang, shook his head and said, "I'm not used to living with others. Anyway, I will get the gold in a few days, so just stay in the inn first."
Seeing that Ning Que couldn't get Wang Gang's rent, he had no choice but to give up and take Sang Sang alone to find a house.
Wang Gang went to a relatively cheap inn in Chang'an. He thought he could have a good rest before taking the college exam.
Unexpectedly, Ning Que would come to the door a few days later.
"Old Wang, I would like to ask you to do a small favor. In exchange, I will find you a cheap house near Chunfeng Pavilion."
