Chapter 537: Divine Nature
The woman who spoke had slender Danfeng eyes and a tall nose bridge, and was wearing a dark green professional suit, looking capable and beautiful, but unfortunately a few shallow fine lines at the corners of her eyes betrayed her age.
When she and Guo Caiying spoke, they didn't use official titles, so it was obvious that the two had a good personal relationship, so she saw the girl turn around and replied with a hidden smile: "Sister Xu, Li Sheng is my junior at Stanford, and we are talking about those interesting things in college before." β
"University, alas, you young people are talking about college at hand, Sister Xu, I talk about college as if it was a matter of my last life" The woman with phoenix eyes sighed the rush of time, and cleverly joined the conversation between Zhang Lisheng and Guo Caiying, without any stiff and annoying feeling.
In this way, the three of them led the crowd to talk and laugh and walked to the corner of the street in front of a restaurant with a simple faΓ§ade and a slightly old signboard with three black background gold characters written in traditional Chinese.
Pushing open the wooden door and walking in, Zhang Lisheng felt a choking spicy aroma coming to his nose, and he almost sneezed.
Before the young man entered the path of the gods, he sharpened his will and devoted himself to cultivation, although he was worth hundreds of millions, but his demand for material desires was extremely low, and he often treated people with a kind of indifference that was beyond mortals, and carefully understood his life, whether it was admirers or hostiles, they all thought that he was a legendary figure.
But when Zhang Lisheng took that crucial step and was truly extraordinary, whether it was physical senses or personality, he slowly began to become more and more 'human'.
When ordinary cultivators see this situation, they will think that they have fallen into the evil path, and it is impossible for them to make progress in their cultivation. It is difficult to even maintain the status quo, but if it falls into the eyes of the 'great power' who really knows something about the ancient gods, it will be wary and envious.
The gods are naturally extraordinary, uninhibited, and their natural desires are a hundred times stronger than those of mortals, so Zeus, the main god of the ancient Nordic god system of the earth, will often incarnate into mortals and mate with worldly beautiful beings, leaving countless grotesque legends;
And his daughter, Athena, the goddess of war, is a good deity who guards mankind, but just because she is jealous of the beauty of the mortal woman Medusa, she turns her into a monster for human heroes to kill and test. It can also be seen that his personality is perverse.
As for the ancient gods of China, they destroyed the world because of private fighting. The myths and stories of the most powerful religion in the West, the 'Heavenly Father', who smeared blood on anger and destroyed the door, are not uncommon, and young people inherit the abilities of Nuwa and the gods of hell, trace the success of the bloodline, and have abundant feelings. The gradual rise of desire is the nature of the gods.
In the barren Hell Islands, the resurgence of this 'man' is not obvious. But in the bustling metropolis, it will gradually unfold. Zhang Lisheng, who was dazed and didn't realize that he had subtly changed, sniffed the aroma of Sichuan spicy dishes, and showed a nostalgic expression on his face.
Guo Caiying, who was beside her, saw the young man's expression change, and said proudly: "How about the junior brother." The aroma is still authentic. β
"It smells good, but I don't know what happened to my mouth. The young man shrugged his shoulders and said with a grin.
The restaurant is not large, there are only six or seven tables in total, and a short Asian old man in the corner who is enjoying the old wine with spicy bean lees fish and green vegetables and bacon in one bite heard Zhang Lisheng's authentic 'New York accent', and said disdainfully in Sichuan accent: "The ancestors smell the food of Lao Tzu and taste even more fragrant, I'm afraid that you little ghost guy can't stand this spicy energy..."
"Uncle's words are not right, I'm a guy who grew up in the seedling land of western Sichuan, and I can't sprinkle the spicy seeds. Zhang Lisheng looked at the old man and pouted, and said in the native dialect of western Sichuan, the contrast between the words before and after was so great that the strange feeling made those Chinese diplomats who had just walked into the restaurant who had always thought that he was born and raised in the United States were dumbfounded for a while.
But the short old man became interested and asked, "The guy from Miaodi in western Sichuan, which surname is that?"
"Miao Weihua's surname is Wu, Long, Zhao, Ou, and Zhang, and I have the word 'Zhang'. β
"Yo, don't be a fellow, then are you from Hengze or Daze?"
"Hengze He County is from Yuwo Village, my family is not small. β
"Miao Di also talks about what kind of family," the old man said disdainfully: "The biggest is the head of the village." β
"It's not the head, our family is the 'old man' of the thirty-sixth generation. β
"The 'old man' in the thirty-sixth century" The old man's face changed, and he no longer looked like he was leaning on the old and selling the old, he stood up from the wooden chair, and after a long pause, he smiled and said: "Gaffe, gaffe, old man, I am old, and I live a 'roundabout', Zhang Laohan, forgive me, forgive me." β
"He who does not know is not guilty. Zhang Lisheng's tone changed again, and he said in a crepe manner.
Seeing that the young man did not look annoyed, the short old man quietly relaxed, as if he had just seen Consul Guo standing at the door, and greeted him enthusiastically and with a donkey's lips not to the horse's mouth: "Comrade Guo is here, welcome, welcome, I see that he came with Zhang Laohan."
The work of the national united front in China is really getting more and more vigorous, and even the old men of Miao Wei are 'reunified', and they are also sent abroad for public tourism. β
"It's not Mr. Yu, Mr. Zhang is an international student, and he is a classmate of my colleague. Consul Guo, who has experienced many important foreign affairs occasions, has already calmed down, and explained with a decent smile that he is not so good in his usual life, but he pays special attention to maintaining his professional demeanor when Guo Caiying is present.
"What, international students, that, what international students are good, international students are good, learn knowledge and serve the country, I will go to the back kitchen to cook a few big dishes by myself, let everyone taste them, taste them." The old man was stunned for a moment, said a sentence upside down, turned around and muttered in a low voice, "He was the first to die, I really didn't expect Lao Tzu to live to the world where the old man stayed abroad", and walked to the back kitchen,
"Old man Yu took the wrong medicine, we don't care about it every time we come, why are you so polite this time. Looking at the disappearing back of the short old man, a pretty second-class secretary of the New York consulate said in astonishment.
"Xiao Wu, Old Man Yu is not polite to us. That Sister Xu shook her head with a smile, and her slender beautiful eyes turned to Zhang Lisheng with a curious gaze, "Xiao Zhang." Listening to your accent, I really can't imagine that you are a Chinese student.
What do you mean by 'old man', what kind of character is 'stubborn and stubborn', and the old man Yu, who usually doesn't roll his eyes when he sees guests, becomes so polite when he hears it?"
After listening to Sister Xu's question, everyone also looked at Zhang Lisheng curiously, and the young man smiled and explained casually: "The 'old man' in Miaodi is actually the 'god man' of the Han nationality.
West Sichuan is far away from the Central Plains, ancient times is a barbaric land, there are many legends of gods and gods, that old Mr. Xu is also a Sichuan person, and he is old, so he naturally respects me and stays away. β
Zhang Lisheng's explanation is plausible but prosaic. To the curiosity hunters, they can't help but be a little disappointed. One of them, a tall and strong young man with a few pimple marks on his cheeks that had not been completely eliminated, whispered in a disdainful tone: "I thought it was amazing, it turned out to be the ancestral 'dancing god'." β
With Zhang Lisheng's previous temperament, this sentence is enough to exchange for a murderous warning. But now he is unswerving and jealous of this. Then came the indignant young man who slandered himself. But he only felt pitiful and pathetic.
In addition, after meeting Guo Caiying by chance, he gradually had other plans in his heart, so he did not reveal his hideous face, and he did not even reveal his dissatisfaction. Instead, he put the two tables together and prepared for the meal.
Zhang Lisheng's approach is very atmospheric, Guo Caiying, who has seen his angry killing, naturally does not feel that the young man is cowardly, and thinks that he has endured his anger because of his own relationship, and his heart can't help but feel a little warm, but the smile that has always bloomed on his face has disappeared without a trace, and he helps expressionlessly.
As the boss of the young man who talked a lot just now, Consul Hong frowned when he saw this scene, glared fiercely at his rude and embarrassed subordinates, and began to set up wooden chairs.
As soon as the two 'big shots' with the deepest backgrounds and the highest positions in the scene made their moves, the other Chinese officials were all in a hurry and busy as if they had been pressed the start button together.
But it took more than a dozen people to help to build a table, and seeing that there was no work to do, some clever young people had to wipe the tables and chairs that could already see the figures again, and waited until Guo Caiying and Consul Hong stopped.
After a period of hecticism, sitting down on a wooden chair that seemed to have been wiped off a few points of luster on the lacquer surface, Zhang Lisheng said with admiration: "Wow, senior sister, I have seen some news that we Chinese people don't care much about their literacy in public because of the difference in living habits between us and Westerners, but I didn't expect it to be the case at all."
At the very least, the hygiene habits of your colleagues are much better than those of most Mi people. β
Young people are already considered top business celebrities in the United States, and they are respected even more than government cabinet members and presidents when they meet with the employees of their companies, but they will never reach the point of spontaneous 'one hundred responses' just now.
He didn't understand the ecology of Huaguo officialdom, and thought that everyone's busyness was a kind of educated performance, so he made a sound of praise, but he didn't know that his words were very embarrassing to listen to other people's ears, only Guo Caiying was stunned, and suddenly lowered his head and laughed.
Since childhood, I received a combination of Chinese and Western education in Beiping, and my girlhood was spent in a famous school in the United States, Guo Caiying was originally a very independent and assertive girl in her bones, and after graduating from college, she was reluctant to enter the workplace with her elders, and after several years of hard work, she first went to the central enterprises and then to the key ministries and commissions, although the level has not changed, but in fact it has completed the 'gorgeous turn', and it is only a matter of time to soar into the sky.
It stands to reason that a character like her will not have the sigh of 'being smoothed out by life', but when she is trapped in the mountains and seas of Nawen, ushering in the send-off, she is busy every day, and when she thinks about it carefully and doesn't know what she is busy with, people will naturally be changed.
At this time, Zhang Lisheng's words led her to reflect on her life in the past few years, and the girl could no longer suppress the smile in her heart. (To be continued......)
PS: Today's chapter is an excessive plot but the pig pig is full of emotion, as the lowest government clerk really feels angry and funny about some of the 'conventions' in the system, but when it is his turn to get along with the leader, he can't help but be courteous.
I really don't expect to be promoted and reused, but in that kind of 'ecology', ordinary people like Pig Pig will naturally go with the flow, hey, sometimes I feel ridiculous
In addition, it was good to have two shifts from today, and the time to finish the yard today is also early, but tomorrow morning at 7:20 a.m., you will have to wear the training of the hell in the uniform of the safety supervisor, do not go to bed early, and toss a day tomorrow to hang the hanging bottle (not exaggerated, really hanging), hey, long live the understanding, the big ones, rectify the official style, to be honest, it is really imperative, otherwise, the 'color revolution' is close at hand, and it is too much to say
