Chapter 385 I, Lin Ye, am back!
"What kind of bird is this? Damn, it's a really big bird."
On the high-speed train, many passengers looked out the window at the giant bird soaring in the sky not far away, which caused bursts of exclamations.
But they just exclaimed, and the passengers did not riot.
Because this was not the first time they had seen such a scene. In the past few months, there had been too many things that had subverted their common sense.
Jurassic Century!
Some people describe the world today like this: with the return of Tianwai Tian and the revival of the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, many monsters have also emerged.
The first place where the spiritual energy revived was in the mountains and forests, which were the nests of monsters. In just a few months, many monster kings were born among the monsters.
These demon kings also occupied the mountains. In the beginning, many battles broke out between the demons and the practitioners from the outer world for the fight for territory, but after both sides suffered casualties, both sides restrained themselves.
Among the demon race, as long as there is a demon king, he can find a mountain and claim it as his own. Of course, the prerequisite is that there are no sects from outside the world moving in.
As the high-speed train traveled south, Lin Ye learned from the passengers how ordinary people felt about the changes in the world. Most of the people were willing to accept it and some were even excited.
Lin Ye also figured out the reason.
The world's wealth and resources are in the hands of 1% of the people, and the resources owned by 99% of the people are limited.
For these ordinary people, this change in the world is equivalent to giving them an opportunity to reshuffle their classes. As long as they have talent and become practitioners, they can complete the class transition.
The most important thing is that in the past few months, there are quite a few lucky people like this. Many young people have gone to those mountains, and many have been accepted as disciples by those sects.
After these lucky ones returned to the city, not only did the attitudes of their change, but many powerful people also vied to curry favor with them, because everyone knew that the current stability was only temporary.
In the future, practitioners will become the upper class of this world, and ordinary people can only change their status by becoming practitioners.
Some historians call this the third class change of mankind.
The first time was in the pre-civilized era, when human status was divided according to strength and physical fitness.
The second is culture. Whether it is the ancient imperial examination or the current college entrance examination, it is an opportunity for ordinary people to change their status.
Now is the third time. Whoever can become a practitioner can achieve a leap in status.
Instigated by these people, most people are looking forward to changes in the world, and they hope to be the lucky one who makes the leap from a carp to a dragon.
"Junior brother, it seems that the people in your world are also dissatisfied with their lives."
Dao Hai followed Lin Ye and listened to the discussions of the passengers in the car with confusion in his eyes. After seeing the so-called technology of this world, as well as the clothing and appearance of the people in this world, he really couldn't understand why these people were still dissatisfied?
If it were in his world, the people would just want to have enough food and warm clothes, but the people in this world have obviously already been satisfied.
"When material conditions improve, people turn to pursue spiritual things. We have a saying here that the main contradiction among the people now is the contradiction between their growing needs for a better life and unbalanced and inadequate development."
Lin Ye's answer made Dao Hai think for a moment, but he was still unable to wrap his head around it.
"People's ambitions and desires are endless, but after they have solved the problem of food and clothing, they will want to pursue other things, such as pleasure and status."
Dao Hai understood this sentence, and an expression of deep agreement appeared on his face.
“Therefore, there is no real Pure Land of Bliss in the world. Even Buddha probably has something to desire, so how can he cut off everything?” Daohai sighed.
Even Buddha needs incense and golden ornaments, otherwise how could his junior fellow apprentice be bestowed with Buddha's light? Isn't it because of the Buddha's consideration of the seventy-two golden Buddhas?
Raocheng Station!
After getting off the high-speed train, Lin Ye did not return to his villa, but went directly to the appraisal institute.
"Lin... Consultant Lin."
At the door of the appraisal institute, several young men were walking out in a hurry. When they saw Lin Ye, the leading young man stopped instantly, a look of surprise appeared on his face, and he walked towards him respectfully.
"Tan Qing, how is your stay in Rao City?"
Lin Ye also looked at Tan Qing with a smile. Among these five young men, Tan Qing was obviously the leader, and Tan Qing had already broken through to the middle stage of Hidden God Realm.
It seems that Tan Qing has made rapid progress in the past year or so.
"Very...very good. Consultant Lin, you are looking for Team Leader Zhong, right? I'll take you there."
After Tan Qing finished speaking, he said to the people behind him, "You go to the destination first, I will come over later."
"team leader……"
Seeing their captain so excited, several members of Tan Qing's team stared at Lin Ye with some curiosity.
They had just joined the appraisal institute this year and were assigned to Tan Qing's team. They did not know Lin Ye. They did not understand why the captain, who usually looked down on others, was so respectful to the man in front of him?
Even Captain Xue, who is currently the most powerful captain in the institute, is very dissatisfied with his own captain.
"What are you standing there for? Go ahead."
Tan Qing didn't want to introduce Consultant Lin's identity to his team members, at least now was not the time.
Both myself and Consultant Lin are still several levels behind, let alone these newcomers.
Thinking of this, Tan Qing secretly glanced at Lin Ye, and sighed in his heart, he is worthy of being Consultant Lin. Even though he is now in the middle stage of Hidden God , he still can't see through Consultant Lin.
Consultant Lin is unfathomable.
After sending his team members away, Tan Qing led Lin Ye all the way inside. Along the way, they met many young people coming in and out, and each of them was a cultivator.
"Are there a lot of people in the institute now?" Lin Ye asked curiously.
"Advisor Lin, we have more than 70 people in Raocheng now, divided into five teams. Xue Nuanqiu and I will lead a team each, and there are about 20 people in the logistics team."
Tan Qing introduced the situation of the Raocheng Appraisal Institute to Lin Ye. For example, the dozen or so logistics and mobile personnel of the original appraisal institute had all been transferred from their posts.
Because those people are just ordinary people, they have now been transferred to the logistics headquarters to carry out specific work.
There are five teams, each with ten people, all of whom are practitioners. The team leaders are five newcomers selected by Lin Ye from the capital a year ago. Now each of them is in the middle stage of Hidden God Realm.
"Team Leader Zhong!"
In Zhong Shan's office, Tan Qing pushed the door open without saying hello.
"Tan Qing, you... Lin... Consultant Lin, you're back!"
Zhongshan's office is still the same as before, but there is a huge display screen behind Zhongshan's chair. The video displayed on the screen is the surveillance video of many mountain intersections. At this moment, Zhongshan just turned around, and when Tan Qing made way, in fact, Tan Qing didn't need to make way, because Lin Ye was a head taller than Tan Qing, and Zhongshan saw him at first sight.
Standing up from the chair, Zhong Shan even accidentally swept the documents on the table to the ground with his sleeves in panic, but Zhong Shan didn't care about that. He immediately walked around the table and ran to the door to greet him.
"Advisor Lin, Team Leader Zhong... I have something else to do so I'll leave first. You two can chat."
Tan Qing was very perceptive. After leading Lin Ye the way, he took the initiative to retreat and closed the door quietly.
"Tan Qing is usually very unruly. Only you, Consultant Lin, can make him be so respectful."
Zhongshan first flattered him subtly, and then his eyes fell on Daohai who was following behind Lin Ye.
A monk.
He knew without thinking that this should also be an extraordinary person, oh no, now he is called a cultivator.
Anyone who was able to come in with Consultant Lin and is a monk must be a cultivator and must be very powerful.
"I have been in seclusion for a while recently, and I already know about the changes in the world. What is the situation in Rao City?"
Hearing Lin Ye's question, Zhong Shan smiled and said, "Advisor Lin, there is no problem in Raocheng. Miss Chen and your relatives are all secretly protected by our appraisal institute."
Zhong Shan knew about the relationship between Lin Ye and Chen Xi, because Consultant Lin once asked him to help solve some minor problems. He also conducted some investigations and found that the matter was related to a woman named Chen Xi. When he saw the photo of Miss Chen, he immediately knew that Miss Chen was probably Consultant Lin's confidante.
As early as when the practitioners from Tianwai Tian appeared in this world, the headquarters sent a team to Raocheng to protect Consultant Lin's relatives. It was not until Tianwai Tian and the Appraisal Institute reached an agreement that the people sent by the headquarters left. However, he did not dare to relax his vigilance and immediately arranged for other people to be responsible for the protection.
"Thank you for your hard work."
Lin Ye did not say anything pretentious about asking the people he was secretly protecting to evacuate. The current social order was still unstable, and he could not stay in Rao City all the time. It was necessary to arrange for people to protect his relatives.
"It's not hard, it's not hard. I arranged the team of Meng Guangcun, but I didn't tell Meng Guangcun that we were protecting your relatives, Consultant Lin."
Meng Guangcun was the second among the newcomers a year ago, and also came to Raocheng with Lin Ye.
"Advisor Lin, this is your cell phone."
Zhong Shan opened the drawer of the table and took out a mobile phone from it. This was the phone that Lin Ye had left at the headquarters when he went to the entrance of Tianwai Tian.
"This phone was sent by headquarters half a year ago."
After taking the phone, Lin Ye only thought about it for a moment and understood why Mr. Lu sent the phone to Raocheng.
Tianwaitian has returned. As soon as he comes back, he will definitely care about his relatives the most. The first thing he will do is naturally to rush back to Raocheng. Mr. Lu must have guessed this, so he directly asked someone to send the phone to Raocheng.
"By the way, please get an ID card for my senior brother."
While turning on his phone, Lin Ye introduced Dao Hai to Zhong Shan. When Zhong Shan heard Lin Ye call him "senior brother", he trembled a little.
Consultant Lin is so amazing, then he must be Consultant Lin’s senior brother.
As expected, he felt that since Consultant Lin was so capable, it was impossible for him not to have a master. It seemed that Consultant Lin's master was originally hidden from the world, but now that the spiritual energy of heaven and earth has revived, Consultant Lin's master is about to come out.
But I didn’t expect that Consultant Lin was actually a Buddhist.
No, Consultant Lin has a confidante, and Consultant Lin has not become a monk.
Could it be that Consultant Lin's Buddhism is quite special, similar to that Joyful Zen?
"Master Dao Hai, please follow me."
Applying for an ID card is difficult for ordinary people, but it is a small matter for Zhong Shan. However, Zhong Shan has a principle that no matter what Consultant Lin tells him to do, he will treat it as a major matter, do it personally, and do it seriously.
Dao Hai followed Zhong Shan out of the office. Lin Ye also turned on his phone. In an instant, thousands of messages rang, and his phone was stuck for dozens of seconds.
There were hundreds of missed calls on the phone, including from his uncle, aunt, and other relatives, as well as from Chen Xi, and many unfamiliar numbers.
There are the most messages on chat software, especially some group messages. After Lin Ye opened some class groups and took a quick look, he understood why.
Because of Tianwaitian’s return, many students began to discuss it in the group, and even a few of them had already become practitioners, of course, they had just started.
Lin Ye first called his uncle and aunt to report that he was safe. His uncle and aunt were very excited on the phone, and of course they also criticized him a few words. After hanging up the phone, Lin Ye had a wry smile on his face, but his heart was warm.
My uncle was fine, perhaps because men generally don't show their emotions too much, so he just gave him a few words of advice. But my aunt gave him a good scolding and only hung up the phone after he promised not to lose contact so suddenly in the future.
"I didn't expect that Nuan Nuan would become a practitioner as well."
Lin Ye thought of what his aunt said on the phone, that his cousin also had a talent for cultivation, but did not choose to join the Tianwai Tian sect. Instead, she was accepted by the official and was said to be receiving training at a certain base now.
"It would probably take most of the day to go back one by one like this."
Seeing that there were still hundreds of messages, Lin Ye realized that he had known so many people without realizing it.
Consultants of the appraisal institute, such as Li Datou and others, have sent messages, as well as to the father and son of the Wei Group, Chen Shanghan of the Frost Group, and He Jie.
After thinking about it, Lin Ye simply posted a circle of friends.
Well, I took a landscape picture and sent it directly without any text.
The next moment, there was a message prompt. Lin Ye clicked it and saw that Zhong Shan had liked your post.
This guy, isn’t he applying for Dao Hai’s ID card? How can he still look at his phone?
Regardless of the circle of friends, Lin Ye called Chen Xi.
…
…
Raocheng, Longxi Group Office.
He Jie sat in front of the floor-to-ceiling window in her office on the 30th floor, looking out at the Xinjiang River with her beautiful eyes, looking tired.
After a while, He Jie came back to her senses and picked up her phone. When she subconsciously opened her circle of friends, her breathing suddenly became rapid and her eyes lit up.
Holding the phone in one hand, He Jie used the other hand to dial the number on the desk and called the secretary's office, saying in a cold voice:
"Inform the other party that my Longxi Group does not intend to participate in this cooperation."
