"Zhou Zheng, where did you go? Ah! I haven't seen you for a few days! Do you still have to work? Do you really think that your iron rice bowl will not be smashed!"

A roar came from the receiver of the mobile phone.

Zhou Zheng held the phone as far away as possible, his expression a little helpless.

He had actually asked for leave before.

After the grumpy uncle on the other end of the phone finished yelling, Zhou Zheng smiled and apologized, explaining that he had been seriously ill in the past few days and had not fully recovered yet.

The other party's tone softened: "Xiao Zhou, are you really sick? Are you just lazy and hiding at home playing games?"

Zhou Zheng's voice became much weaker: "Cough, cough, director, I have a slight health condition and I have just been discharged from the hospital."

"Then remember to make it clear in advance.

"Go to the company's official website and place a leave request form. After filling it out, send it to me as soon as possible... It's true, every day, none of today's young people are reliable!"

The other party hung up the phone while complaining.

Zhou Zheng breathed a sigh of relief and made a victorious scissors gesture to Ao Ying beside him.

Ao Ying puffed up her lips to express her dissatisfaction: "This person, well, this guy is so rude, and he interrupted Zhou's rare practice state."

"As a leader, please understand."

Zhou Zheng said half-jokingly, then carefully recalled the pleasure of practicing Taoism just now, and said excitedly:

"I'll try again! Once there is a state, there will definitely be a second time!"

Before he finished speaking, Zhou Zheng sat down cross-legged.

Ao Ying pursed her lips and smiled softly, but she did not forcefully guide Zhou Zheng anymore and floated to the sofa not far behind.

Ever since.

The hard-working young man is sitting on the floor meditating, groping for his own path of spiritual practice in this life;

The leisurely and relaxed beautiful girl was lying on the sofa, her little feet swaying gently, with snacks in hand and recipes in front of her, and she began to explore the field of cooking pastries.

About an hour later.

"Ao Ying, don't you need to practice?"

Zhou Zheng turned around and asked, his eyes full of curiosity.

"No need," Ao Ying explained easily, "The dragon bloodline memory will slowly awaken over time. The skills and insights of the ancestors can be extracted from the bloodline memory. I just need to wait for some time and wait for two years to jump to the dragon gate.

, restoring the body of a true dragon can sublimate the bloodline!"

"……excuse me."

The mediocre mortal showed a ashamed smile, lowered his head and continued to practice hard.

The girl from the sea is a little eager to try——

She took a fancy to the 'survival supplies' in the kitchen refrigerator, and while Zhou Zheng closed his eyes and continued to find his state, she quietly floated over and sealed the narrow area with a barrier.

The morning passed slowly;

There are some extra cakes in the kitchen with burnt skin.

Two hours had passed since Zhou Zheng was interrupted by a phone call, and wisps of breeze were lingering in the living room again.

Ao Ying, who had already put on a checkered apron over her ancient skirt, looked at Zhou Zheng in surprise.

Can he come again?

Isn't it said that it is very difficult for new practitioners to enter such a state, communicate with heaven and earth, and be in harmony with spiritual energy?

Ao Ying blinked, a smile quickly broke out on her lips, and she continued to lower her head and busy with the work at hand.

As soon as Zhou Zheng meditated, it was noon.

When he got up, he felt as if he had taken a hot bath with a suitable temperature. He was full of energy and full of energy.

When your head is clear and your eyes are clear, you will know the joy of practicing;

Breathe smoothly, and the dawn will be naturally more interesting.

【Human Speech】: I didn’t expect that practicing cultivation would be so enjoyable!

Thanks to Ao Ying's reminder, Zhou Zheng did not dare to continue practicing like this. After all, he did not have a formal technique.

A skewed start would be unsightly.

Zhou Zheng stretched his limbs, stood shirtless and barefoot on the carpet, and tried to punch the air in front of him.

It cannot be said that it has no power, it can only be said that it has made little progress.

"Well," Ao Ying whispered a few times, "Zhou, since you have decided to practice and have proposed to join Xiaoyue and the others, why don't you just resign from your previous position in the world?"

She was still brooding over the phone call that interrupted Zhou Zheng's first practice.

Zhou Zheng smiled and narrowed his eyes: "It's so difficult to find a job these days. I always have to find a good job first and make sure I can eat another rice bowl before returning the previous one."

Ao Ying thought for a moment and said softly: "You are indeed more thoughtful."

Zhou Zheng asked: "By the way, did instructor Xiaoyue say anything? About my interview."

"It just said that you should find a suitable time to go to it," Ao Ying said with a smile, "I don't know why, but I always feel that this immortal immortal of the Tengu clan takes special care of you."

It shouldn't be that extra care, it's probably a kind of kind care from immortals to mortals.

Or, perhaps, instructor Xiaoyue knows something about his previous life?

Zhou Zheng thought for a moment and looked up at Ao Ying: "Is it convenient to go out now?"

"certainly."

"According to what you said before, instructor Xiaoyue also went to rescue me," Zhou Zheng said with a smile, "Now that I am out of danger, I should come to thank you, and..."

"What?" Ao Ying's eyes flashed.

"I actually hope to formally practice cultivation as soon as possible," Zhou Zheng took the initiative to invite, "I want to go to the immortals for an interview now. Do you want to come with me?"

"Yes," Ao Ying said with a smile, "I will follow you wherever you go."

"Why do you say this so suddenly? Then wait for me. I'll go change into more formal clothes... Yes, I also need to send a message to instructor Xiaoyue and make an appointment in advance to show respect."

Zhou Zheng emphasized verbally, and the two of them quickly ran back to the bedroom, a little embarrassed.

Although Ao Ying knew that Zhou Zheng attached great importance to this matter, she never expected that——

It takes a boy just an hour to change clothes!

…

The yellow taxi slowly stopped at the entrance of the old pedestrian street.

The car door opened, and the spotless limited-edition commemorative sneakers were the first to hit the floor, leading to the brand new pair of gray sweatpants.

The flat short hair exudes the faint lemon fragrance of shampoo, and Zhou Zheng's delicate face is slightly tense.

As soon as he got off the bus, he scanned everywhere carefully, trying to determine the approximate location of his destination.

He originally planned to wear a suit and leather shoes, but after debating for a long time, he decided to dress more casually.

For interviews, you need to be relaxed.

You must not only show your recognition and respect for the next job, but also show your self-confidence. It is best to give people a sense of calmness that "if I don't stay here, I will sell sweet potatoes."

Well, a sense of calm...

The driver's head stuck out of the car window: "Teacher! Pay the fare!"

"Okay, okay!"

Zhou Zheng quickly turned around and took out his mobile phone to scan the QR code for the driver to pay.

A chuckle came from his coat pocket.

Ao Ying used the method of transformation and turned into a carp-shaped jade the size of a thumb. It stayed in Zhou Zheng's jacket pocket and tried to avoid going out to avoid exposing her whereabouts.

——She is not afraid of monsters, she just doesn’t want to cause any more trouble to Zhou Zheng.

Xingfu Street is indeed bustling, with shops crowded together and buildings on floors. Luxury brands can be seen everywhere, and there are places everywhere that have nothing to do with basic human survival needs.

Zhou Zheng took a quick look and found many attractive and beautiful ladies and handsome men.

They walked by seemingly casually, with either confident or shy smiles on their lips, preparing excellent side shots for the photographers holding equipment on the side.

“There are many Internet celebrities who come here to do street photography.”

Zhou Zheng muttered quietly, holding his phone and starting to search for a map.

Ao Ying's voice penetrated into Zhou Zheng's ears:

"There are several spiritual beings here, but none of them have any evil aura. They should be friendly to humans and allowed to live in the city by the Futian Alliance."

"Hmm? Real or fake?"

Zhou Zheng couldn't help but feel a little interested. He looked around a few more times, but he couldn't tell which one was the spirit.

Do business first!
