Meanwhile, in the hotel, Lin Ye picked up the hotel phone and dialed a domestic number.
It couldn't be helped. It was too expensive to make a call with a cell phone.
"Uncle."
"Kid, do you still have time to call me? Strange, why is the caller ID overseas? What's this number? "
"Uncle, I'm traveling overseas with the company's leader. This is the hotel's number."
"If you're traveling overseas, then go ahead. Why are you calling me? Are you showing off? "Uncle Lin Ye said angrily.
"Uncle, aren't you a Daoist scholar? I have something to ask you."
"Are you interested in Daoism?" Uncle Lin Ye asked, puzzled.
Lin Ye didn't know his uncle's identity.
Uncle Lin Ye usually presented himself as a charlatan.
His family thought that Uncle Lin Ye was a fortune-teller.
There were many Daoist books at home.
However, Uncle Lin Ye often held them in his hands while others couldn't understand them.
Lin Ye's father passed away when he was young, and his mother remarried.
Therefore, Lin Ye lived with his uncle.
Uncle Lin Ye had given him some Daoist books in his early years.
However, Lin Ye couldn't understand them, so Uncle Lin Ye didn't let him read them anymore.
"Here's the thing. Our boss came up with a question. He said that there's a person who has cultivated an inner world, and his inner world has evolved into a small world. How should this small world evolve next?"
Uncle Lin Ye raised his eyebrows. "Did your boss give you this question?"
"It's a question our boss gave to all our employees. Anyway, our boss often comes up with such questions. Whoever answers well will get a higher bonus. Last time, there was an employee who was a Daoist priest when he was young, and he got a huge sum of money. I'm thinking that if I can get the bonus, we can renovate our house. Am I right, Uncle?"
"Tell me the details," Uncle Lin Ye said solemnly.
Lin Ye explained the question in detail and said, "Uncle, doesn't Daoism explain the evolution of the inner world? How do you think this small world should evolve?"
After a moment of silence, Uncle Lin Ye said, "Did your boss really come up with this question?"
"Yes, Big Boss."
"Give the phone to your boss."
"Huh? This … Uncle, our boss isn't here. Also … Why are you looking for him? "
"If you want the bonus, tell your big boss. I know the answer to his question."
"Uncle, do you really understand?"
"Cut the crap."
Lin Ye was still a little hesitant. "Uncle, why don't you tell me first? I'll pass it on to my boss."
"You can't even understand a few books at home, and you still expect you to understand what I'm telling you?"
"I don't understand, and our big boss doesn't understand even more."
"Cut the crap."
"Really?" Lin Ye was still a little worried. After all, he was very satisfied with his current job.
Not only was it a career that he liked, but it was also a generous salary.
He was worried that his uncle would say something wrong and cause him to lose his job.
"You even know how to talk back to your uncle?"
"Okay, okay, okay, I'll find our big boss for you … Uncle, don't talk nonsense."
"Do you think your uncle is a fool?"
Lin Ye hesitated and called Zhang Ting.
"Chief Zhang."
"Xiao Lin, what's the matter?"
"Can you give me President Chen's phone number?"
"The big boss doesn't like people calling him casually," Zhang Ting said with a frown. "Why do you need his number?"
Zhang Ting was worried that Lin Ye would think that Chen Zhao was rich, so she asked him casually.
"It's my uncle …"
"What does this have to do with your uncle?"
"My uncle is a Taoist priest, the very experienced kind. I originally wanted to ask him about the big boss's question. My uncle said that he has a unique opinion."
"Are you sure?"
"I … I'm sure. My uncle is very knowledgeable about Taoism."
Lin Ye couldn't say that his uncle was a charlatan now.
Zhang Ting thought for a moment. Lin Ye was usually very responsible and his skills were quite high.
He didn't have any bad habits, so he probably wouldn't have any bad thoughts.
"I'll ask the boss."
After Zhang Ting hung up, she called Chen Zhao.
Hearing that an experienced Taoist priest wanted to talk to him, Chen Zhao immediately agreed to Zhang Ting's request.
Zhang Ting went around and gave Chen Zhao's number to Lin Ye.
Then, Lin Ye gave his uncle the number.
…
Ding —
"Hey, may I ask how I should address you?"
"My surname is Chen. And you are?" Chen Zhao replied.
"I'm Lin Yunqiong. My Taoist name is Qiong Ding."
"You're right, Spiritual Master Qiong Ding." Chen Zhao didn't put on airs. His words were quite polite.
"I won't say any more polite words. I have some insights into the problem that Fellow Daoist has been troubled by."
"You have ideas?" Chen Zhao raised an eyebrow.
This Taoist Qiong Ding was unknown, but he actually had ideas?
"You don't seem to trust me."
"What do you think of Celestial Master Zhang of Dragon Tiger Mountain?"
"His cultivation is the best in the world and he's very knowledgeable about Taoism."
"Then how do you compare to Celestial Master Zhang?"
"Ha … My cultivation is much lower than Celestial Master Zhang's. I've only just entered the Shang Qing Realm. I just realized that the world is vast and the path of Dao is limitless."
"I've talked to Celestial Master Zhang before, but even he can't answer my question. Why do you think you can answer my question?"
Chen Zhao believed that since this Taoist Qiong Ding knew about the Shang Qing Realm and could enter it, his cultivation was definitely not low.
However, his cultivation was lower than Zhang Tianyi's. Chen Zhao felt that it was very unlikely that he could answer his question.
Of course, Chen Zhao believed that he wasn't a liar.
Perhaps he just wanted to talk to someone with the same Dao.
"You should know that everyone has their strengths and weaknesses. My cultivation is lower than Celestial Master Zhang's, but that doesn't mean that I'm worse than him in everything."
"Then what do you think about my question?"
"I don't dare to say that, but before I answer your question, can you answer my next question?"
Chen Zhao smiled. He hadn't gotten an answer yet, but Qiong Ding had asked him first.
"Go ahead."
"Half a year ago, I felt that the Heavenly Dao had changed. Someone had touched the Heavenly Dao. Was it you?"
Chen Zhao thought for a while. He was probably talking about how he'd comprehended the Ascension Realm and engraved it into the world.
"If you're talking about comprehending the Heavenly Dao, then it should be me."
"You've broken through to the Shang Qing Realm?"
"Yes," Chen Zhao answered.
Taoist Qiong Ding was shocked. He found it hard to believe.
It could even be said that it was thanks to Chen Zhao that he was able to enter the Shangqing Realm.
However, it was because he'd entered the Shang Qing Realm that he found it even more unbelievable.
