At 7:30 in the morning, Zhao Si opened his eyes and his fiancée had already prepared breakfast for him.
His fiancée was named Sun Ling, a girlfriend he met at Teikyo University. She majored in accounting and now worked as an accountant in a Fortune 100 company. Her income was not much lower than his, but she had basically no savings due to her lavish spending, so Zhao Si had to pay the mortgage every month.
If this kind of relationship is posted online, there will definitely be a large group of people advising him to break up, but Zhao Si doesn't care. When he was in college, he relied on Sun Ling for a long time. His money is more than enough to pay the mortgage, so it doesn't matter if Sun Ling doesn't pay.
They have been living together for two years and are at the stage of discussing marriage. There is no need to be so clear between husband and wife.
Sun Ling asked, "Why have you been so secretive recently? You've been nowhere to be seen all day long. Your clinic has been closed for a month."
Although she didn't say it explicitly, Zhao Si could hear the other party's implicit meaning and could also sense his fiancée's worries.
Zhao Si answered truthfully: "I found a new job and I don't plan to open the clinic anymore."
Although he could continue to run a clinic after joining the company, the work of the HR department was mostly training and standby, and communicators like him who were reincarnated only needed to learn basic firearms. But after Zhao Si saw the vastness of another world, he could no longer continue his ordinary life.
The powerlessness he felt that day also gave him a great shock, as he hated being powerless the most.
"What kind of job? Wouldn't it be good to open a clinic? You will waste the clients you have accumulated over the years. Where can you find a job that pays 50,000 or 60,000 yuan a month in this economic downturn?" Sun Ling continued to ask.
"I joined the human resources department of a road cleaning company." Zhao Si lowered his head and drank a sip of soup. Then, without noticing his fiancée's surprise, he fell into deep thought again.
His mind has been a mess since the day he was taken to the police station. When he recalled previous news reports, he always suspected that some practitioners were involved. Whenever he saw a Taoist priest or a monk, he suspected that they were practitioners. He was always suspicious when walking on the street.
Zhang Kelin said that his symptoms were a common stress response, which many people who had just started practicing would experience, and would go away after a while. However, minors or some mentally immature people did not have this reaction, which might be because the second-year syndrome overcame the stress response.
"That Daoqingsi!?" Sun Ling was extremely shocked. There was only one company that took care of the road cleaning, and that was Daoqingsi.
This is an extremely mysterious company. Although it is responsible for sweeping the streets, it also monopolizes the streets of the whole country. It can even be said that Daoqingsi is present in everything related to roads. It is almost a huge company that encompasses the field of people's livelihood. And the difficulty of getting a job there is equivalent to that of a cigarette factory. Even a doctor of Teikyo may not be able to get in. Without connections, you can't get in at all.
"How did you get in?"
Sun Ling remembered that Zhao Si came from a rural background, so it would have been impossible for him to enter Daoqingsi.
"Brother Yi helped me get in." Zhao Si replied. If it weren't for Li Yi, he would not have been qualified to enter Daoqingsi and might never have been able to practice cultivation in his entire life.
"Your friend who is in a vegetative state?" Sun Ling obviously didn't believe it. Zhao Si didn't argue with her. He stood up, put away the dishes and prepared to go out.
Just as he was about to leave, he discovered that something was wrong with the entrance hall. There was a Bodhisattva statue on the shoe cabinet. Made of white porcelain, sitting cross-legged, it was different from other Bodhisattvas holding a jade vase, but a flower.
Because of the stress response, Zhao Si is now very sensitive to anything related to religion.
"What is this thing?"
"What is that?" Sun Ling poked her head out of the kitchen and saw the Bodhisattva statue Zhao Si was pointing at. "Which one is that? This is the Buddha statue from Qingyun Temple that my mother sent me. It's said to bring peace. The older generation loves to believe in this and give money to those monks every day."
Qingyun Temple? The Taoist temple of that Taoist priest.
Zhao Si immediately felt relieved, because Qingyun Temple was a legal religion registered with the Daoqingsi.
"We don't believe in this. Just find a place to put it later. I'm going to work."
"Oh, drive carefully on the road. I heard a few days ago that a policeman was racing. I wonder whose young master this is."
Zhao Si pulled the corner of his mouth, walked out of the house as usual, greeted the neighbors he knew as usual, and bought cigarettes at the convenience store downstairs as usual. There was no change in the secular world, and the lives of ordinary people did not seem to have changed much due to the revival of spiritual energy.
This reminded him of the Western news he had seen some time ago, where a coup d'état took place in a country called Yaka, and a religion called Donghuang Sect came to power. At the time, he even jokingly called it the Eastern Crusades, but now thinking about it, he felt a chill down his spine. The spiritual practice groups had already come to the fore, and some had even seized power. There were only a handful of countries in the world that had suppressed the situation and not caused unrest like the six Eastern countries.
At this time, a blue sports car worth at least several million stopped in front of him, the window rolled down, and in the driver's seat was a young man with ointment on his face.
"Get in the car. A special envoy will be here early today. They have something to ask you. Don't be late."
Lu Haochu, whom he called a smiling tiger, was now his team leader and had recently moved to his house in the name of protecting him. Zhao Si had no objection to this, although the other party had the intention of monitoring him, it was more for his own protection.
I heard that some of the reincarnated people have hatreds with each other, and some of them were killed by one of them in their previous life. So the person who reincarnated first might attack the one who reincarnated later, and as a close friend of Li Yi, he might become the target of attack by some people.
"Special envoy?" Zhao Si opened the car door and asked while fastening his seat belt, "Is it about Brother Yi again? I remember you were also a special envoy before."
"Otherwise? Is it because of you?" Lu Haochu started the car. "Recently, the company has been running around Li Changsheng. His supermodel fighting power has had an impact beyond your imagination. You also know that for thousands of years, rulers are most afraid of people who are out of control. I'm afraid your elder brother can make the masters of the Imperial Capital sleepless for a long time."
