Chapter 005: Introduction to Cultivation

Dark Small Medium Large Original Scroll to Bottom

However, unexpectedly, Wang Dalin stared wide-eyed for a long time, and from the innermost part sprang out four characters: "Divine, Marvelous, Four, Heroes"

Wang Dalin felt a sense of unease in his heart; this was one of only three five-star hotels in City X. It was said that a casual meal there would easily cost over ten thousand yuan. Wang Dalin followed closely behind Gu Yue like a country bumpkin, not daring to stray even a step away, fearing that he might get lost.

Arriving at a suite on the twelfth floor, Gu Yue knocked on the door and gently pushed it open: "Please!" Wang Daling, seeing that Gu Yue had opened the door but showed no intention of entering, quickly asked, "Aren't you coming in?" Gu Yue smiled, "The person looking for you is inside, so I won't go in." Wang Daling, feeling helpless, steeled himself and walked in.

He sat there for an entire morning. When it was time for lunch, his colleagues gradually left. Lin Wen came over to invite him to eat together. Like an older sister, Lin Wen guided him around the restaurant, explaining all the details and stories about the place. Thus, in the afternoon, he sat idly for another entire afternoon.

Wang Dalin squeezed onto the bus and returned to his residence, tossing his belongings onto the bed. He washed his face; although the office building had central air conditioning and was quite cool, it was entirely different once he stepped outside. After a crowded bus ride, he was drenched in sweat. He sniffed his body, took off his clothes, and took a cool shower, then changed into a fresh outfit, preparing to go out for a meal

He has no relatives or acquaintances in this city; apart from the landlord, no one will come to find him

Although the first day at work was somewhat disappointing, as experienced at https://m.hetushu.com, Wang Daling was still very pleased to have met a beauty like Lin Wen, and he would be seeing her every day in the future. However, he found it a bit strange: why were the hired individuals not being utilized, left idle for an entire day? It should be noted that salaries are to be paid daily; isn't this a waste?

Gu Yue started the car and slowly drove onto the street. He drove very smoothly, possibly due to the quality of the vehicle; however, Wang Dalin, sitting inside the car, felt anxious and uneasy.

She, however, did not know that Wang Daling was not laughing at her for watching romantic films, but had already begun to fantasize about watching romantic films with her in his heart. Her gentle hand caressed his body

Wang Dalin asked Lin Wen with some surprise, "How did you figure it out?" Lin Wen scoffed, "Hmph! Do you think only you men watch adult films?" Realizing she had let it slip, Lin Wen looked at Wang Dalin's smirking expression and, feeling both embarrassed and angry, retorted, "What's wrong? Is it only permissible for you men to watch?"

Looking at this strange visitor, Wang Dalin was puzzled: "What brings you to me?" Gu Yue replied: "Actually, it's not me looking for you; someone else is looking for you." "Where is he?"

Wang Dalin looked at the wooden door in surprise: "This... is this a silenced pistol?" He turned around and saw Mu Dongyue snapping his fingers, a ball of ghostly blue flame appearing in his palm, obedient as if it were a pet! Wang Dalin's eyes widened, while Mu Dongyue sneered inwardly: Let you, this ignorant fool, witness the three flavors of spiritual fire of an old master!

Just as he was about to leave, a knock on the door sounded. Wang Daling glanced at the date on his phone; it was not yet time to pay the rent. Why was the landlord here again to rush him? Wang Daling felt quite displeased and resolved in his heart to find a new place to live

The luxury of the suite exceeded Wang Dalin's imagination, with gilded mahogany furniture, imitation Jun kiln porcelain, and an ancient copper and wood grandfather clock... An elderly man sat on the ostrich leather sofa, smiling at him: "You have arrived"

The man smiled slightly: "Let me introduce myself, my name is Gu Yue." Wang Daling, feeling perplexed, shook hands with him and sensed that the other party seemed to possess great strength; a gentle grip felt as if a pair of iron pliers had clamped down on his hand. Wang Daling frowned. The man quickly released his grip: "I apologize, I did not mean to."

Wang Dalin was still dumbfounded, and Mu Dongyue felt somewhat helpless. This kid is truly a piece of rotten wood that cannot be carved; after a long time, there was not even a hint of reaction!

"Alright, let me explain your job to you now." Lin Wen walked around his office and said, "You don’t have any specific duties; just do whatever the deputy editor-in-chief asks you to do. Do you understand?" Wang Dalin nodded, then suddenly asked, "Why do you always refer to the deputy editor-in-chief? What about the editor-in-chief?" Lin Wen smiled and replied, "I forgot to mention, the editor-in-chief is the investor of the editorial office, that is, the boss, and usually does not come here, so the deputy editor-in-chief is actually the person in charge here."

These three types of spiritual fire and the three types of true fire are not the same; their natures belong to the yin and * diagram * book. For a man to cultivate the three types of spiritual fire is much more difficult than to cultivate the yang-type three types of true fire. Mu Dongyue, with his profound cultivation, intentionally shows off a bit, aiming to impress Wang Dalin, who is unaware of the vastness of the world.

The solitary moon did not respond, but instead asked, "You haven't eaten yet, have you? Let's go out and talk while we eat." Wang Daling nodded, "Alright then."

Suppressing the dissatisfaction in his heart, and thinking of the heavenly pearl on Wang Dalin, Mu Dongyue said with a smile: "Let's put it simply, do you know about the ancient cultivators in China?" Only then did Wang Dalin react: "Oh, I know, I have read novels by Zhu Louzhu before!" Mu Dongyue let him be, nodding and saying: "Indeed, sword immortals are not a mere fantasy, but they truly exist; both Gu Yue and I are sword immortals."

"Alright, I am leaving now. Please tidy up a bit first. If anything comes up, the deputy editor will contact you." She pointed to the telephone on the desk. Wang Dalin nodded.

More than half an hour later, the car stopped in front of a luxurious hotel. "We have arrived," the doorman said as he opened the car door for Wang Daling. Stepping out of the car, Wang Daling was momentarily dazzled by the brilliant lights, and after a while, he finally adjusted his eyes to see the words beside him: Golden Joy VIP Hotel

I tidied up a bit—though there wasn't much to clean, as it was already quite tidy in here. I placed my briefcase on the chair; there are no coat racks in the office. When I took off my coat, I had no choice but to hang it on the chair. Not wanting to stand, I could only leave it on the chair as well

Wang Dalin stood up and was about to leave when Mu Dongyue stopped him, saying, "What’s wrong with you?" Wang and *Tu* Shulin smiled and replied, "Old man, if you want to play tricks on me, at least come up with something better. Whose idea was this? To be honest, your plan is summed up in one word: terrible!" Mu Dongyue was furious but did not stop him. Just as he reached the door, a flame suddenly shot past his ear and into the wooden door, instantly filling the door with black smoke

On the first day of work, he was firmly grasped by the pigtail, yet Wang Dalin felt not a trace of displeasure in his heart. If the hands that held his pigtail were as beautiful as Lin Wen's, he would willingly have his hair pulled out.

"By the way, I remember my performance in the interview was quite poor. Why did they still decide to hire me?" Wang Daling asked. Lin Wen shook her head: "I don't know either. Initially, the deputy editor had already thrown your information into the trash. However, the next morning, they suddenly reversed that decision and asked me to find your contact information to notify you to come to work."

Downstairs, Gu Yue opened the door of the black Lincoln sedan and said to Wang Dalin, "Please get in the car." Wang Dalin had never been in such a high-end vehicle before, and he couldn't help but feel a bit flustered. Sigh, someone from a small place, not well-versed in the world. Seeing Wang Dalin's expression, Gu Yue couldn't help but smile. Wang Dalin climbed into the car, secretly feeling embarrassed, and once again felt out of place.

He opened the door, but standing outside was not the chubby landlord, but rather a young man he had never seen before. "Who are you looking for?" Wang Daling asked. The man was dressed in a stylish suit, his shoes neatly polished, clearly indicating they were high-end. "I am looking for you," the man replied. Wang Daling was taken aback: "Looking for me? But I don't seem to know you."

"Alright, we have arrived," she said as the two entered a small office, which contained only a desk and a chair. "This is your workspace, specially created just for you. Look outside, those reporters and editors are all working together; your treatment is quite good," she said with a sly smile, leaning close to Wang Daling's ear. "This was personally assigned by the deputy editor-in-chief; it seems she has high hopes for you!" The warm breath from her words brushed against Wang Daling's ear, creating a ticklish sensation.

Wang Dalin sat at the elder's right hand; he still understood these basic courtesies. The elder smiled and said, "We didn't know each other before, but after today, we are acquainted, aren't we?" The elder introduced himself: "My name is Mu Dongyue, my Daoist name is Yue Dong, and the solitary moon outside is my disciple." Wang Dalin looked bewildered, and Mu Dongyue's expression became serious: "You heard correctly; I am a Daoist, and the solitary moon outside is as well, but we usually do not reveal this identity."

Wang Dalin thought for a long time but could not recall where he had seen the old man before. "I’m sorry, I don’t seem to know you," Wang Dalin said. The old man nodded, "Indeed, we do not know each other. Please have a seat." The old man called out to the outside, "Guyu, have them bring the food in."

Lin Wen smiled, and everyone in the editorial department was quite open-minded. From Lin Wen's gaze, Wang Dalin could tell that she must have guessed he was once again indulging in fantasies about the deputy editor-in-chief. However, this time she was mistaken; that recent sensation of "intimate whispering" had already led Wang Dalin to start fantasizing.
