Lin Xiaobei's Diary of Struggle
My name is Lin Xiaobei. My father is a retired librarian from the Taibu Si, and my mother is a deputy librarian. The two of them are well-known for slacking off in the entire Xianzhou.
The Luofu Immortal Boat is currently undergoing a period of political change.
The future General of Luofu is Fu Xuan, the head of the Taibu Si (a Taoist priest's office).
That's the Grand Diviner who's always clamoring to usurp the throne, and whose ambition rivals that of Yan Qing.
It's unimaginable what kind of abyss the future of the Luofu Immortal Ship would lead if she were to become the Luofu General!
Oh, right, speaking of Yanqing, we have to mention our future Sword Master of Luofu.
I had a few chance encounters with this future sword master.
He is indeed a gifted young genius, but he has the same problem as Lord Fu Xuan – his temperament.
This guy is too rigid in his thinking; he's not as smooth-talking as my good-for-nothing dad who's always slacking off.
If things continue like this, they are destined to be of little use.
But actually, Yanqing's situation is not bad.
Here, I must specifically criticize a certain Yunqi Army general who can't even type a single character!
Li Sushang! Li Big Pillow!
And there is our future Vidyadhara Dragon Lord, Miss White Deer.
And that judge of the Ten Kings' Court who's afraid of ghosts, Huo Huo!
Just thinking about them gives me a headache!
Damn it, is our Luofu Immortal Ship destined for decline?
No, I, Lin Xiaobei, will absolutely not allow this to happen!
I want to personally enter politics and rewrite the future of our Immortal Ship Luofu!
September 18th.
With his excellent grades, Lin Xiaobei successfully entered the Taibu Si and secured a stable job.
Upon receiving the admission list, he jumped up excitedly and returned home with a bang, presenting the list and his grades to Lin Mo and Qing Que.
Lin Mo smiled with relief, and the next second he called his old friends in the Taibu Si and asked them not to spread his story, especially not to let his son know.
After all, he didn't want Lin Xiaobei to follow the path of a spoiled brat.
Qingque, unlike Lin Mo, didn't have as many ulterior motives. She happily applauded Lin Xiaobei and then personally cooked a sumptuous meal to reward him for his hard work during this period.
However, the taste of the food was really not good.
After finishing his meal, Lin Xiaobei forced out a smile that looked even more bitter than a smile.
...
September 20th.
This was the day the diviner was to report for duty.
At this moment, Lin Xiaobei was still full of enthusiasm and determined to achieve great success, not to become a good-for-nothing like his father who just loafed around and waited to die!
So he did not hesitate to choose the most tiring, but also the most demanding and challenging job in the Taibu Si (a divination office), which was to conduct the Great Derivation Array Observation and Array Base Divination.
September 23rd.
After three days of work and life, Lin Xiaobei suffered a major setback.
This is clearly different from what's described in the book!
How could it be this difficult?
Indeed, what you learn from books is never enough; you must put it into practice to truly understand.
Only then did Lin Xiaobei truly understand this principle.
October 15th.
After more than half a month of practice, Lin Xiaobei's divination skills have finally reached a basic level.
However, the price paid was also very heavy.
He found that his enthusiasm had waned considerably at this point.
This made him start to doubt himself.
But his busy work schedule didn't give him a chance to think.
Lin Xiaobei had no chance to stop; he could only devote himself wholeheartedly to the endless work and become an excellent cog in the machine.
October 30th.
With the Lunar New Year approaching in the last ten days or so, the number of divination tasks at the Taibusi (a divination office) has increased dramatically, and the explosive workload is truly suffocating.
Lin Xiaobei was beginning to understand why her children, Lin Momo and Qing Queque, had chosen the position of librarian.
However, what he didn't know was that his parents were both geniuses... even if they were to become diviners in the Great Evolution Qiong Array, they would still be able to handle official duties with ease.
November 1st.
After a month of working overtime without a perfect attendance record, Lin Xiaobei couldn't bear the pressure and chose to take a day off.
That day, he went to Changletian to relax.
At that moment, he happened to run into his father, who was there to play cards.
So Lin Mo decided to fulfill his duties as a father, since he was about to have a daughter and he couldn't neglect Lin Xiaobei.
So he took Lin Xiaobei and they had a great time with Di Yuan Qiongyu.
Then, as he was about to leave, he advised, "Nothing in life can be achieved overnight; the prerequisite for success is perseverance!"
Upon hearing this, Lin Xiaobei frowned and asked, "Insist on what?"
Lin Mo's lips curled up slightly: "Keep going until luck comes."
Lin Xiaobei: "6".
"However, before luck comes, you must learn to find joy in hardship. Only in this way can you persevere. This is the true balance between work and rest."
October 2nd.
Although Lin Mo's advice was rather unconventional, it still eased Lin Xiaobei's anxiety.
Subsequently, Lin Xiaobei's ambition diminished significantly. He began to enjoy the sense of accomplishment that work brought him, instead of focusing on unrealistic and distant goals and putting pressure on himself all day long.
October 17th.
Lin Xiaobei could clearly feel that after calming down, the road ahead became smoother and smoother.
Not only has his work efficiency improved, but his mental state has also become much more positive.
At this moment, he began to look back on his past. He suddenly realized that his mindset when he first came to Taibusi was no different from that of the future Sword Master.
No, I was far worse than Yanqing back then!
Thinking about this, Lin Xiaobei felt somewhat ashamed.
Then my impression of my lazy dad also changed a bit.
November 30th.
Chinese New Year is just around the corner!
On this day, Lin Xiaobei also received some incredibly good news!
I'm getting a promotion!
He no longer has to struggle at the bottom!
December 15th.
Having bid farewell to the mundane and arduous work, Lin Xiaobei felt a great sense of relief. However, after a few days of carefree living, he rediscovered his original ambitions.
So he decided that after the New Year, he would make a great show of his skills in the Bureau of Taxation.
The new broom sweeps clean, and the first thing he does is deduct his father's retirement pension!
Lin Xiaobei felt that her family had more money than they could spend, not to mention that her father, who had retired early, still received such a large pension every month that he couldn't even spend it all. This was extremely unreasonable!
It would be better to use this rice to benefit the new employees!
Lin Mo: "6, that's so filial!"
I got someone to promote you, and this is how you repay your father?
