Xuanzong's liaisons are eligible to apply to practice ancient martial arts. As long as they have been employed long enough and are loyal enough, they will be approved sooner or later.
Almost all senior liaison officers can obtain the introductory principles of ancient martial arts and receive training guidance.
However, because cultivation requires talent, even if a practitioner has obtained the mental method, it may take several years for a practitioner without any wisdom to draw the qi into the body. During this period, many people will be dazzled by the world and choose to give up.
After all, the first step is so difficult, and it cannot directly achieve the effect of prolonging life. At most, your energy will be much better than that of ordinary people. For example, you will not feel tired when driving long distances, and the safety factor will be improved, etc.
So what men say about good talent is not false to some extent.
But the most important thing is——
"You have the perseverance to persist." Ye Lan commented.
Hearing this, the man recalled those days of hard practice and was filled with emotion. "Yes, when others were out drinking and playing mahjong, I was at home practicing facing the empty air. I practiced for six months at a time without a single day's break. Sometimes I felt depressed and thought I might never succeed in my life. But the good thing is that I can stay at home and spend more time with my wife and children. Now my children say I'm a good father wherever they go, haha."
At the end of his speech, the man became cheerful again, and his laughter became more open-minded.
Ye Lan looked at him and thought of Lao Ba who died at his hands.
Later investigation data showed that Lao Ba had applied for the entry-level mental method twenty years ago, but because he was addicted to worldly pleasures, he gave up in less than half a year and also developed a mild gambling addiction.
Although his willpower is much stronger than that of most ordinary people, the threshold for a cultivator is far higher than that of ordinary people, so his demise is actually inevitable.
When they were almost at their destination, Ye Lan asked the man one last question.
"Don't you want to have the same power as us?"
They can call the wind and rain, and even live for hundreds of years without aging.
The man was stunned for a moment, then shook his head and laughed. "It would be a lie to say I wasn't envious, but I know better than anyone that with great ability comes great responsibility. I'm only at the entry level right now, and I can live a stable life with a wife and children, and then I'll drive for you. But if I continue to practice and achieve a breakthrough one day, those days will come to an end."
He was a very contented person, so after he gained a little more energy and strength than ordinary people, he gave up practicing.
Ye Lan, who was sitting in the back seat, fell into silence for a long time after hearing these words. He only bowed and thanked the other party after getting out of the car.
"Oh, I can't accept this. You are all immortals, how can you worship me?" The man waved his hands repeatedly, looking flattered.
If he knew Ye Lan's true identity, he would probably faint from fright.
Ye Lan's thanks were sincere. When she straightened up, her eyes were filled with a hint of enlightenment, and a faint smile appeared on her usually cold and indifferent face. "You taught me that sometimes being an ordinary person also requires courage."
The man in front of him was even more admirable than the ancient warriors who were struggling to achieve a breakthrough.
Because it is difficult to keep your original heart.
Wu Heng thought he would be able to sleep his way home, but when he was woken up and got out of the car in a daze, he found himself still on the main road.
"Didn't we say we were going back to the Wu family? Where is this?" He was too nervous on the road and didn't sleep well at night. He only fell asleep today because he was so sleepy. Now his mind is confused.
"Cars are not allowed to enter here. You need to pack your things first." Ye Lan gestured for him to look to the side.
Wu Heng rubbed his eyes and looked to the side. There was a huge billboard hanging on the telephone pole. It read "National 4A-level scenic spot "Feitiandu", no vehicles allowed."
Scenic area?
He followed the arrow on the sign and saw a spacious entrance not far across the main road. There were crowds of people at the entrance, and further ahead were mountains hidden among the misty water vapor. Just a glimpse of this corner was already beautiful like a fairyland.
"Let's go." Ye Lan called a rickshaw and left the gifts there before walking towards the gate.
Wu Heng followed her to the ticket window and lined up. He was a little confused for a moment as to why he had to line up to buy a ticket here when he was clearly going home.
In a trance, he suddenly thought of a possibility.
"Could it be that my home is in the scenic area?" He moved the corners of his mouth and spoke in a low voice.
Ye Lan looked back at him and nodded with some satisfaction, "Yeah."
She thought the other party had come to her senses, but she didn't know that Wu Heng only felt more sad at this moment.
It turns out that after their family was driven out of Peach Blossom Island, they ended up working in the scenic area, living in boarding houses while working. And considering the constant humidity here, it must be very humid, which wouldn't be good for their health in the long run...
If I had known earlier, I should have bought more supplements.
After Ye Lan bought the ticket, he turned around and saw the boy's face full of regret, and he was confused for a moment.
The two entered the scenic area and walked up along the crowd.
It happened to be the peak travel season during the summer vacation, and the scenic area was crowded with people. There were vendors hawking their wares everywhere at the foot of the mountain, and tourists stopped to take pictures. Interspersed among them was the sound of staff using small loudspeakers to direct the crowd, making it as lively as a hodgepodge.
Wu Heng, who had been frugal all the way, broke his habit this time and bought something at every stall. When he went up the mountain, his hands were full of snacks, and he gave a lot of them to Ye Lan.
"I asked you to go to the night market before, but you refused. Why are you buying these now?" Ye Lan casually took a skewer of grilled squid and took a bite. The refined pigments and low-quality oil didn't taste good, but she had been willing to try all kinds of things since her rebirth.
