It Starts With A Mountain

Chapter 543

I don't have money, and I won't spend it for them if I have money. Cheng Dalei said, The third type?

The third type is to rely on talent. Liu Facai said: You are the number one poet in the world, the number one chess player in the world, and even the number one carpenter and blacksmith in the world can see Master Meng.

That's it. Cheng Dalei sighed: The key is that I don't have any of these three things. The name of the number one bandit in the world seems to be of no use here.

Liu Facai sighed: It's my fault that I didn't say it in advance. I think we should find a place to live and make a long-term plan. The Red Court is not bad.

Actually, I have a way. Cheng Dalei said: This Master Meng always has relatives, and I have tied their daughters and granddaughters to coerce them, so I don't have to worry about getting any news. According to what you just said, Wanjuan Academy should It’s very rich, and I can make a fortune while I take the opportunity.”

... Liu Facai was speechless for a while: Master Cheng, Langya City is a cultural place.

Yeah, I know what you said, but I'm not a literate person. Cheng Dalei pressed the hilt of the sword with his hand, his chest was raised, and he was about to break through the mountain gate of Wanjuan Academy.

Master Cheng, be careful, be careful. Liu Facai hurriedly stopped: Let's think of a way, there is always a way to go up the mountain.

Cheng Dalei had no intention of rushing up the mountain. After all, this time he was asking for help, so he could use a knife and a gun as soon as he came up. Of course, he didn't have much time to waste here. If he couldn't think of a good way for a while and threatened him with the lives of his relatives, wouldn't it be impossible to do it.

I'm a thief anyway.

At this moment, a sackclothed scholar passed by Cheng Dalei and stepped on the stone steps up the mountain.

Isn't this also possible to go up. Cheng Dalei patted Liu Facai's shoulder: Go up and have a look.

Liu Facai pouted and muttered, That's so easy.

Going up the mountain along the stone steps, Cheng Dalei saw the mountain road leading straight to the top, watching the white clouds around the mountain peak, and listening to the sound of the waves. Cheng Dalei walked up the mountain slowly, but he was also a good person for self-cultivation.

On both sides of the mountain road, there is a square stone platform, or there are scholars sitting and talking about Taoism, or three or five friends chanting poems and fu, or sitting and playing chess, or playing the flute together, or someone in robes facing the wind, competing in martial arts and teaching skills.

There is no first place in literature, and no second in martial arts, but it is precisely because there is no first place that scholars strive for the first place. It is not for this reason that most scholars have their eyes above the top. After all, if you don't agree with the warriors, I can beat you, but if I don't agree with you among the scholars, what should you do, you can't beat me.

At this time, Cheng Dalei came to the middle of the mountain and saw a platform in front of him. The road up the mountain was blocked by a red lacquered door, and the boy in linen who had passed them just now knelt in front of the door.

A Confucian scholar with a broad robe and long sleeves stood in front of the gate and said, The academy has strict requirements for its disciples. If you want to study in the academy, you should take the academy's big exam every spring and March.

The disciple has been waiting for three years, and I just want the academy to give me a chance to take the big exam. The boy in mai said.

The broad-robed scholar shook his head, closed the door, and went up the mountain.

Cheng Dalei was at a loss: How can this happen?

Cheng Dang's family does not know, thinking about the status of the academy in the empire, you can become the target of winning out of the academy. There are many scholars in the empire, and these people must all want to study in the academy, and the academy can't accept everyone, there is always an assessment. Choose the best out of them.”

It makes sense. Cheng Dalei nodded.

So the academy has three charges and three no charges. Liu Fa Cai.

how to say?

The big exam is held in spring and March every year, and those with excellent grades will be admitted. In addition, there are those recommended by famous people, the children of the academy, and some talented scholars myself.

It's not unreasonable. Cheng Dalei said: What about the three no?

If you don't have money, don't accept it. The cost of the academy is huge. When you go out, you need to pay attention to your clothes. You don't get tired of eating and eating. The children of the untouchables are not accepted, and the parents of the children of the academy can never be slave labor. Third, those with incompetence will not be accepted. Those who lack arms and legs, and those with ugly faces will also bring shame to the academy.”

Tsk, it's pretty good. Cheng Dalei then remembered that he was limping when he was a teenager in linen, and he thought it was a five-body defect, and seeing that he was wearing a linen jacket, he probably didn't have much money.

The boy in linen knelt on the ground, his heart for learning was very sincere. There were people coming and going in front of him, and no one took a second look at him. This kind of thing should be often encountered in the academy, and no one will find it strange.

Not long after, two people dressed in short clothes came, and they looked like they were servants of the academy, that is, the school staff.

The two set up the sackclothed boy and walked down the mountain. Their behavior was not rude, but neither was polite. It's not the first time this kind of thing has been dealt with.

Cheng Dalei stopped the boy in linen and dispersed the two school workers.

A man has ten thousand gold under his knees. This is the problem of kneeling when he sees it. Isn't it the teaching of a sage? Cheng Dalei said.

The young man's name was Chu Yunsheng. He lowered his head and said feebly, Don't be ashamed to ask questions for the sake of learning.

Although he was very dejected, but looking at the expressions, he didn't think much of Cheng Dalei and Liu Facai. Well, before I went up the mountain, I caught the stinky problem of the academy.

Cheng Dalei didn't care, and said, Do you want to go up the mountain?

Only then did Chu Yunsheng's eyes light up, and then he shook his head: I have lived in Langya City for three years, my family is exhausted, and I have not passed this gate. There is no one in the world who can help me.

Tsk, see what you said, as long as you want to go up the mountain, I can help you open this door.

Chu Yunsheng laughed, and did not ridicule Cheng Dalei on the spot.

Liu Facai was also at a loss. The two of them had not found their way up the mountain. Why did Cheng Dalei dare to boast about helping others?

Cheng Dalei turned his eyes around, and suddenly had an idea in his heart, and said, I'll tell you a poem, you write it on the door. The door will naturally open at that time.

what!

Liu Facai's eyes widened, Cheng Dalei looked similar to himself, and his temperament was actually similar. If Cheng Dalei was a butcher who killed pigs, no one would doubt it, but he said that he could write poetry, which was indeed a bit bizarre.

Besides, what is this place? Langya Wanjuan Mountain, the holy land of scholars, the nest of talented people, you have to rely on a limerick as a stepping stone, I am afraid you can't.

Chu Yunsheng lowered his head and didn't care too much in his heart, he was still in a decadent mood at the moment.

Then, I saw Cheng Dalei tap the ground with his toes and scribble on the ground. Chu Yunsheng didn't think so at first, but after reading the second sentence, his pupils were already hot.

Hand in hand, Dalei bowed and said: Your Excellency is talented, Chu has five bodies to the ground.
