Avenue Secret

Chapter 15 The Taoist Priest
The Taoist chess watcher said quietly:

"Cultivating the Tao is your own business. You should make your own choice."

After finishing speaking, the Taoist chess watcher stopped talking, and sang the Taoist formula of "The Classic of Transformation" by himself.

Liu Li sat on the ground, began to listen, and thought to himself: "Is it because I don't have enough emotional intelligence to ask like this, and made him angry?"

"The Daoist Chess Watcher himself said that he also needs the light of the secret power, so his answer must be to give him all the light of the secret power! But as a mysterious senior, he has his own self-esteem, so it is impossible for him to propose this to me. kind of request..."

Liu Li thought about it randomly, and it didn't take long before he organized his thoughts, stopped thinking about these messy things, and began to practice following the Taoist formula of the chess watcher.

the next day.

tension!

Liu Li was wearing equipment in the bedroom, ready to face-to-face with customers.

The stab-proof suit was worn inside, and a blue slanted-neck Taoist suit was put on outside. This was specially purchased online by him, just to pretend that he was also a practitioner, so that customers would feel afraid of him and dare not do anything to him casually.

Putting on the cloud socks and cloth shoes again, he looked in front of the mirror, not to mention, Liu Li felt that he really had some taste.

It's just that this outfit is a bit cold, and the cold wind is blowing outside. I'm afraid I can't bear it. Liu Li put on a black down jacket again. The clothes are thick, very warm, and they look good. Buy this kind of good clothes, which his mother bought for him earlier.

In the end, Liu Li put on the last Taoist suit purchased online, a small square hat. The scientific name of this hat seems to be "Zhuangzi Scarf".

Bring your phone and keys. Liu Li didn't forget to stuff the refined chili water in his coat pocket, and he also brought a self-defense umbrella.

Before going out, Liu Li heated up the winter flower wine again in the water bath, and drank today's winter flower wine.

"It's really effective, the pain in the chest is already very weak."

"However, the best situation is to scare the client so that he will not have unfavorable thoughts about me, and if he can do it, he will not do it."

Liu Li also wore sunglasses and a mask. He was afraid that this client was some kind of psychologist who could observe other people's micro-expressions and judge whether the other person was guilty. Now he used a mask to cover his face and sunglasses to cover his glasses. Worry is much less.

At the same time, avoid accidentally injuring yourself when using the magic weapon chili water.

Liu Li felt that he had read a lot of online novels, and his "anti-reconnaissance awareness" in this area was full, but when he was about to leave the house, he was still very worried, so he went to paste the talisman paper he bought online, and he didn't know if it was useful or not. Cover the inside of the coat to prevent magic attacks.

Go out.

Subway.

In the city center, at the exit of the subway line, Liu Li walked out without changing his face.

He felt that passers-by had a high "return rate" today, probably because his outfit was so cool and the hat on his head was very eye-catching.

Holding a big black umbrella, Liu Li walked on the foggy street and saw the agreed door of the coffee shop.

He took a deep breath, picked up his phone nervously, and sent a message:
"I have arrived."

The customer replied: "Ms. Liu, I saw you."

Liu Li collected himself, walked in generously, and then saw a beautiful girl in fashionable dress waving at him.

"Ms. Liu, this way."

Her Mandarin is not very good, a little jerky.Liu Li looked over and was a little surprised. He didn't expect the client to be a girl!
She has protruding eyebrows, thick and deep eyelashes, a high nose bridge, and pouty lips. She looks like a mixed-race person. Even in a down jacket, she can tell that she has a very good figure.

"You are the client?" Liu Li walked over and sat opposite her, with a steaming cup of coffee already placed in front of her.

"You can call me Ella." She smiled charmingly: "I also have a Chinese name, which was given by my father, and it's called Song Sanyue."

"Ms. Song, hello." Liu Li reached out his hand and shook her.

"Ms. Liu, should I call you teacher, or Taoist priest?" Song Sanyue asked with a smile.

Liu Li opened her black coat, allowing her to see the obvious Dao uniform.

Liu Li pretended to be free and easy, and said with a smile: "Is the title important?"

Song Sanyue was slightly stunned, and then said: "It's because I'm not sensible enough. Mr. Liu, your translation is worthy of being so exquisite. It seems that you are a master of Taoism."

Liu Li laughed and said, "It's not true, it's just pursuing the Tao."

"Each of us is exploring our own way." Song Sanyue said, at this time, the cafe waiter came over, Song Sanyue asked: "Mr. Liu, what do you want to drink, I'll give you some."

"Just have a cup." Liu Li said, he didn't plan to drink it either, who can guarantee that Song Sanyue didn't make some way in advance to add some medicine to the coffee he ordered.

When going out, pay attention to protect yourself.

When the waiter walked away, Liu Li said, "Let's get down to business. What do you want to discuss with me about the translation?"

Song Sanyue asked: "Do you have a translation?"

Hearing her question, Liu Li realized in annoyance that he had brought everything with him when he went out, except his laptop for work!

He was so preoccupied with being on line with clients, going head-to-head, testing each other, that he forgot that this was a work discussion.

Fortunately, the translation he translated was saved in the cloud document. Liu Li took out his mobile phone and sent the latest version translated yesterday afternoon to Song Sanyue.

Song Sanyue carefully looked at the document on the phone, while Liu Li secretly looked at her.

This girl is really beautiful, her facial features have the three-dimensional features of Europeans and Americans, but also the softness of Chinese people. Her serious appearance is also very good-looking. Liu Li even felt a little guilty. He thought that such a cute girl would hurt him before. How could it be possible? ?
Afterwards, Liu Li's eyes were attracted by her mobile phone.

Fuck you, rich lady.

The mobile phone in her hand turned out to be the latest flagship mobile phone of the large foreign company "Xinshen Media", with a ceramic back cover, high-end leather, good looks, strong performance, and expensive.

She is still wearing a watch. Although Liu Li doesn't understand watches, it can be seen that the mechanical watch is probably a valuable item.

The clothes and bags on her body are all famous brands, right?So rich?

Liu Li's previous affection for her disappeared, and the great sense of distance pulled him back to reality.

"She and I are not at the same level..." Liu Li became more vigilant.

The waiter brought the coffee at this time, and Liu Li pretended to stir it.He didn't even intend to drink, and he didn't take off his mask.

After a long time, Song Sanyue put down her phone and said with surprise, "Nice, your translation is very nice."

Good guy, the local dialect has appeared... Liu Li complained inwardly, then gave a polite smile, and then he realized that the other party couldn't see his smile.

"However, I have some questions, and I wanted to ask you before." Song Sanyue said: "A discussion about some terms in the Taoist scriptures."

Liu Li said: "You try to ask, I will try to answer."

"The first is the bait chapter, using medicine to prolong life, Chinese medicine to nourish nature... this paragraph." Song Sanyue said: "Your translation is that high-quality medicine can prolong life, but the later 'life', you put it Translated into life, flesh, etc., is there any conflict?"

Liu Li said: "Different characters have different meanings in different contexts. Is this normal?"

"Do you think it should be translated as 'life'?" Song Sanyue asked: "Instead of a broader sense of 'life'?"

Liu Li thought for a moment and said: "This sentence in the Taoist scriptures has also appeared in other ancient books."

"Shen Nong's Materia Medica once mentioned: Applying medicine can make people live in peace, ascend to heaven, travel up and down, serve all spirits, grow hair and feathers, and cook immediately."

"In the official translation, life here means lifespan. If life is defined in a broader sense, wouldn't it be translated as 'medication can extend the range of life'? Isn't it weird?"

Although Liu Li said this, he suddenly realized that in the main hall of the Taoist temple, when the Taoist monk told him the true biography of the Bait chapter, the meaning of every sentence and every word was passed on.

The "fate" of Shangyao Mingyan, in the meaning conveyed by the Taoist chess watcher, does not refer to the life span, but the "life" of life!
He didn't think it was anything at the time, because he felt that life span was also included in life, but now he heard Song Sanyue mention it, and he thought about it.
