The girl left in a huff, and as soon as she did, another girl, dressed appropriately and with elegant makeup, sat directly across from Chi Hao.
She had light makeup, with eyeliner and eyebrow makeup. Perhaps because she was having afternoon tea here, her lip color was a bit light, which didn't quite match her makeup. She wore black stockings and high heels, and a tight-fitting skirt, making her look particularly eye-catching in her high-end professional attire.
"I seem to have only arranged to meet one blind date this afternoon, are you?" Chi Hao asked a little puzzled.
The girl waved her hand, "No, I'm not here for a blind date. I'm Luo Qianyi, the HR of Polar Bear Network Technology Co., Ltd. Nice to meet you."
Chi Hao nodded, indicating to speak quickly.
"Well, when I received your resume, I started paying attention to you. Later, when you came for the interview, I guessed that you probably wouldn't pass, not because of your abilities or because you're already 36 years old, but because the supervisor is a bit jealous. He feels that if you come, it will threaten his position in the company. The position of deputy manager has been vacant for a while, mainly because he feels that he is not capable enough for the role. You, on the other hand, meet all the conditions very well. If you perform well after joining the company, the deputy manager position will be out of his reach."
Chi Hao said nothing, just looked at her, and then?
"In legend, those with your surname are said to be descendants of Chi You, living fossils who know many ancient legends, especially the Xunyu Giant Axe wielded by Xingtian, and Chi You's Jiuyou Soul-Cutting Blade. Are these all true?" The girl asked a lot of questions all at once. Chi Hao rubbed his forehead; this girl seemed to be an archaeology enthusiast.
"A few years ago, didn't my grandfather already submit the family genealogy to the state? You could just go to the museum to find out," Chi Hao said helplessly.
"I've already asked, but they said it was submitted to the Bureau of Historical and Cultural Research for study and is not open to the public for now. If I want to know these legends, I guess I can only ask you. Oh, by the way, besides the family genealogy, there is also a rather extraordinary scabbard. I guess that should be the Jiuyou Soul-Cutting Blade that is on par with the Xuanyuan Sword, right? So, where is that blade and what does it look like?" Luo Qianyi asked eagerly, as if she was really interested in these things.
"I don't know where the knife is, but maybe I know where it is," Chi Hao gave a vague answer.
"Also, it is said that the firstborn in your Chi family are all boys, is that true?" Luo Qianyi asked again.
"I haven't kept track, so I don't know." Chi Hao shrugged.
"Come on, why won't you tell me anything? Just tell me something you know." Luo Qianyi pouted a little, but she had a good sense of restraint when it came to pouting. Too little made people feel nothing, and too much would make it seem ambiguous.
"I'm feeling very bad right now. Maybe if someone invites me to dinner, I might think of some interesting things to say."
To hear a story, you have to pay. Other people have to pay to read novels, let alone ancient legends. The implications are so obvious. Luo Qianyi may not have been in the industry for long, but in that environment, it doesn't take a year to become an old hand.
"Okay, I'll take you to a good place, I guarantee you'll be satisfied. But after we eat, you have to tell me something valuable." The two of them seemed to have reached some kind of secret agreement, and they left together in tacit understanding.
However, when they reached the door, something unexpected happened.
Ah!!! (Scream); Oh my god!
A white SUV is speeding towards the entrance of Starbucks, and they were too late to react when they saw the car.
With a bang, a white SUV crashed through the door, shattering glass all over the floor. Luo Qianyi was sent flying, her head making intimate contact with the door frame, deforming her face and causing instant death. Meanwhile, Chi Hao was pushed backward, and in the brief moment of consciousness, he saw the driver inside the car, a woman who looked terrified. Her whole body was leaning back, with both hands tightly gripping the steering wheel.
It doesn't make sense. The Starbucks door is at least thirty meters away from the road. How did she manage to drive the car in here? Where did she get her driver's license, from a shady driving school? The instructor must have done a great disservice to society.
Before finishing scolding, the back collided with the wall surface, there was no expected pain, at least for that moment, it seemed like something ran out of the body, and the whole person suddenly felt light, and then lost consciousness.
I don't know how long it took, Chi Hao slowly woke up, the sky was gray, and something bright like the sun but cold like the moon was floating above the thin mist.
Chi Hao sat up and checked his body. It seemed like nothing was wrong. Wasn't he just hit by a car?
Beneath him seemed to be a lake, with a touch that felt as gentle and cool as water, but without getting wet, and he could stand on it without sinking.
"Welcome to the world of souls," a mechanical voice came from afar, as if it were the sound emitted by a yellow light spot drifting from a distance.
The light spot arrived in front of Chi Hao, shining brightly like stars sprinkled on the water surface. Immediately, two people appeared, one wearing a cool Ancient costume beauty, stunning to the extent that it was no less than the fairy sister in "Chinese Paladin."
Another one is an old man with white hair and a long beard, with an immortal demeanor that makes people want to prostrate and call him master.
"I am your pathfinder, what image do you wish for me to have?" The mechanical voice sounded again.
Chi Hao chose Ancient costume beauty without hesitation, even a moment of hesitation would not do justice to this lifelike modeler.
The white haired old grandfather turned into starlight, scattered on the lake surface.
"This is the River of Guiding Souls. You have died in another world and will be reborn here. The rules of the two worlds are quite different, but overall not too different. For the next seven days, I will accompany you, answer any questions you have, and help you solve various life problems to help you adapt to this world as quickly as possible."
"Including a warm bed?" Chi Hao asked. "If my entity is the old man from earlier, would you still ask this question?"
"Okay, forget I asked."
"Before entering the spiritual world officially, please choose your appearance. You can choose an age between 18 and 36."
"About 36 years old." Chi Hao still didn't hesitate.
"The world of souls is very cruel, with life-threatening dangers at any time, but it also brings great opportunities. The stronger the soul, the better it can live in the world of souls. When the time comes, you can have the opportunity to go to another world again, in your words, it's reincarnation."
Chi Hao I wonder, isn't this just reincarnation? Why make it sound so mysterious. "Let's go, I'll take you to see the spiritual world."
