Supreme in the world

Chapter 22
The next day, Qingfeng Group transferred 100 million labor expenses to Lin Zhe's account.

Lin Zhe checked the text message, and felt mixed feelings for a moment.

It's been a while since I went down the mountain, and I haven't called home.

Thinking of this, Lin Zhe dialed the number at home.

"Hey……"

A kind woman's voice rang through the phone.

"Mom... I'm going down the mountain!"

"A Zhe?" The woman on the other end of the phone seemed extremely pleasantly surprised.

However, soon, the woman seemed to be suppressing the joy in her heart, calmed down, and said, "Azhe, you have been studying Taoism for 12 years on the mountain, and you have been away from home for too long. Mom is worried that you are a little out of touch with society... ...I discussed it with your father and found a university for you. You can go to study for a year, and you can get a degree certificate after you come out..."

"Recently, the business has been in a downturn. In order to be busy with the business, your father and I moved to live in the county seat. Now the scope of business is also in the county seat... so we have to come here to take care of it..."

"You just came down from the mountain, stay in the city for a while, don't go home for the time being, wait until the Chinese New Year, school holidays, you come back..."

The woman on the other end of the phone couldn't stop talking, as if she was flustered and trying to cover up something.

"Mom..." Lin Zhe was stunned for a moment, unable to speak for a while.

Don't look at him being decisive and resolute when dealing with murderers, but when facing his parents and his closest relatives, he is very soft in his heart.

My parents, these years have been unsatisfactory, their family has fallen, and the family has lost a lot of money in business. For this reason, their parents also sold their house in Nancheng and moved to a small county town.

To be honest, no matter how bad the business is, my family has a house in Nancheng, so I don't have to move to the county town. In the final analysis, it's just because of being suppressed and excluded.

Lin Zhe was aware of the hard work of his parents, but his mother didn't speak up, so of course he wouldn't challenge it.

Which parent in the world, in front of their children, doesn't try their best to pretend that they are good, and block all suffering for their children?
"Aunt Lan, do you still remember? You should stay at her house during the study period! I have already greeted her... Ah Zhe, you just came down from the mountain. There are many people who are sophisticated in the world, and you may not understand many things. Mom and Dad If you don't understand a lot of things when you're not by your side, ask Aunt Lan more, do you understand?"

Mother was on the other end of the phone, talking with concern.

Lin Zhe nodded involuntarily and said, "I see, Mom!"

"I'll send you Aunt Lan's phone number later. You can call her and she will arrange for you to study."

"OK……"

"Not much to say, I was still busy just now, and I haven't finished my work at hand, so I hung up first..."

"it is good……"

After hanging up the phone, Lin Zhe took a deep breath, feeling a little emotional.

Look at the high-rise buildings in this city, how many people have been busy all their lives, but in the end they have achieved nothing?
This world of mortals is like a wilderness. After all, there is no leisure in the mountains.

Only now did he suddenly understand the reason why his master asked him to go down the mountain.

A person as strong as his master also travels all over the world all year round. The real great practitioners have always been hidden in the world and not known to outsiders.

"Ding……"

Just then, his cell phone rang.

Picking it up, my mother sent a text message with Aunt Lan's phone number on it.

Aunt Lan is a good friend of her mother, who has been with her for decades.Lin Zhe remembered that when he was a child, Aunt Lan often came to the house and brought him a lot of delicious and fun things, and she cared about him very much.

These years have passed, and I don't know how Aunt Lan's life is going.

Thinking of this, Lin Zhe immediately called Aunt Lan.

After Aunt Lan knew that it was Lin Zhe who called, she was very enthusiastic. As before, she said that the room at home had been cleaned up to make room for Lin Zhe.

Aunt Lan's life these years has been getting better and better. Obviously, compared to her mother, it is many times better.

The main reason is that Aunt Lan married a good husband, and now she is the mayor of a certain district in Nancheng, and her career is smooth sailing.

After hanging up the phone, Lin Zhe planned to follow the family's arrangement and move to Aunt Lan's house.

After all, I have lived in a hotel outside for a long time.

Fortunately, he just came down from the mountain. As a cultivator, he doesn't have much luggage, just a few rags.

Now that he has earned some money, a change of clothes is enough.

"When I went down the mountain, Master told me to learn more knowledge and read more books when I have time."

"It's still early, why don't you go to the bookstore first, buy some books, and then go to Aunt Lan's house, and see if there is any work in the next few days. If not, you can just read books in the house."

Thinking in his heart, Lin Zhe walked into a bookstore.

Inside the bookstore, it was very quiet, with only a few people.

Nowadays, with the development of various Internet tools such as mobile phone communication, fewer and fewer people buy paper books.

However, for Lin Zhe, he is not used to reading books with his mobile phone. After all, many years of study and life in the mountains are more about reading paper books.

The boss at the counter was reading a newspaper. When he saw Lin Zhe walking in, he just raised his eyes for a while, then lowered his head and continued to read the newspaper in his hand.

After all, for young people like Lin Zhe's age, there are fewer and fewer people who come to the bookstore to actually buy books. Many people just pass the time and only go into the bookstore to have a look when passing by.

The boss didn't greet Lin Zhe as a guest from his heart.

Lin Zhe didn't mind, it was better if no one told him, he just walked around and looked around, and if there were suitable books, he would buy some and go back to read.

He was in the bookstore, wandered around, and picked up a book, the title of which was "Daomen Ghost Escort".

"This book looks good, buy a copy..."

After flipping through it casually, Lin Zhe picked up other books.

Lin Zhe just started flipping through a few books, and finally didn't bother to flip through them again. He picked up a pile of books from the bookshelf, and walked towards the counter.

"Tao Te Ching", "The Analects of Confucius", "Zuo Zhuan", "Eastern Zhou Dynasty Chronicles"...

"Jin Ping Mei", "Is the Golden Scale a Thing in a Pool"...

No matter what book he is, buy it back first, and then read it slowly.

Anyway, now that I have money, I don’t worry about not being able to afford it.

"Hey, hey, what are you doing..."

The boss at the counter saw Lin Zhe approaching with a pile of books, his eyes widened in shock, and he stood up suddenly.

Lin Zhe put the books on the counter and hugged them twice.

After going back and forth, there are hundreds of books on the counter, piled up as high as a hill.

The boss was dumbfounded and looked at Lin Zhe stupidly.

"Pay!"

Lin Zhe grinned and said.
