Chapter 1168 - 1167: The Expert Is Here
Chapter 1168 - 1167: The Expert Is Here
Opportunity?Isn't the master just talking nonsense?
What doesn't require opportunity?
Jixing even knows that even the cleaning lady needs an opportunity to find a better work environment.
There are so many things written in books, they can't all be nonsense, right?
"Master, are you really not joking with me? Why don't you study this book a bit more? A whole book can't just be about opportunity?"
Jixing voiced everything he was thinking.
"You don't understand, do you? Speaking of which, you are still Jixing. Your wisdom isn't even as good as mine, it's embarrassing!"
Tang Rao nonchalantly put the book aside, retrieved Jixing, and gradually went into meditation.
Tang Rao was too embarrassed to tell Jixing directly that the word "opportunity" was just to cover up his ignorance. His meditation was actually to avoid being found out by Jixing.
Alas, not understanding the star formation is indeed one of life's great failures.
After a sleepless night, the first thing Tang Rao did upon waking up was to find Zhang Wang, hoping Zhang Wang could help see if there was anything valuable in the book. With Zhang Wang being such a cultured and intelligent person, he should understand it, right?
"Zhang Wang, Zhang Wang, can you help me see this? Why can't I understand it?"
Zhang Wang was carefully dusting off a valuable artifact when Tang Rao's exclamations at the door almost made him drop it.
"Boss, what has you so anxious?"
Zhang Wang put the item down gently, removed his white gloves, and walked over to Tang Rao, cautiously asking.
"Enough talking, first help me see if you can understand what's in this book."
It was the first time Zhang Wang saw someone so urgently wanting to do something.
"A book on star formation research?"
Zhang Wang didn't know since when Tang Rao became interested in these things.
"Yes, it's a book on star formation research. Can you understand it?"
Tang Rao looked at Zhang Wang as if seeing a lifeline.
"I don't understand it, but although I don't get it, I recognize the characters. If you want to know what's written inside, I can introduce you to an expert in this field."
Zhang Wang even knows an expert in this field?
It's okay if he doesn't understand, as long as an expert can tell what it says.
"Where is this expert? Can you introduce me now?"
Tang Rao was very interested in the expert Zhang Wang mentioned.
"You've picked a great time, the expert has just come out of retreat, if you seek him out now, he should be willing to see you."
If even Zhang Wang finds it hard to get an appointment with someone, that surely means it's really hard to meet with them.
"Then help me arrange a meeting as soon as possible, this matter is too important. I must see him immediately."
Perhaps the expert knows a way to return to Blue Star. The thought of being able to go back soon filled Tang Rao with excitement.
Zhang Wang took out his keys, while chatting with Tang Rao as they left the shop, saying: "Let's go now, if someone else books him first, it'll be troublesome."
A famous person in the Divine Realm is always welcomed wherever they go.
With Zhang Wang speaking so intriguingly, Tang Rao was even more eager to see this person.
Zhang Wang took Tang Rao to a small grove.
The grove was the kind of place that stirs the imagination. Several times Tang Rao wanted to discuss with Zhang Wang about possibly not going.
Every time he was about to voice his thoughts, he instinctively checked to see if Zhang Wang's expression was normal.
After walking for at least an hour, on the long pathway through the grove, Tang Rao finally saw the first and only building.
It was a house built with earthen walls, and with the wind, its tiles fell off twice.
"Is this... the place where the expert you mentioned lives?"
Talented and wealthy people usually go to two extremes, either they appear too wealthy, or they fear people realizing they have money.
For those who have money but aren't willing to upgrade their living standards, Tang Rao holds them in extreme admiration.
"Yes, this is the place."
Although Tang Rao couldn't believe it, that was the fact.
"Are you sure this is the place?"
Not quite reassured, Tang Rao asked again.
"The expert has a temper different from others, when you speak with him, you must be polite, otherwise, if you anger him, he won't say a thing."
Alright, if this is the place, then that's that.
"Elder Lin, are you there?"
Zhang Wang called out from outside the door, but there was no response from within.
"Elder Lin?"
"Elder Lin?"
Zhang Wang called a few more times outside while Tang Rao stood aside, waiting.
"Why are you calling? If I'd known you were coming, I wouldn't have entertained others."
The person referred to as Elder Lin didn't come out from the house but entered from outside carrying a basket.
"Elder Lin, what are you doing?"
Tang Rao couldn't quite understand.
You're someone who studies star formations, why are you up in the mountains gathering herbs?
"Want to know why I'm not doing my main job and gathering herbs instead?"
This Elder Lin seemed like he could read minds.
"Yes, wait, how did you know?"
Tang Rao felt like he encountered something supernatural today.
How did he come across a sage who sees through everything?
"Of course, I know. If I didn't, the star formation wouldn't have temporarily changed last night."
Elder Lin, indeed a star formation expert, had already calculated Tang Rao's visit through star observation before Tang Rao even thought about consulting Zhang Wang.
"Elder Lin, you truly are a master of star formations! I am deeply impressed!"
Tang Rao bowed: "To tell you the truth, I have an important request today, and I must trouble you, Elder Lin."
He placed all his hopes on Elder Lin.
Elder Lin pondered for a while and seemed to make a big decision, "Come in then."
Being invited in by him was such a rarity that even on two hands the number of people he had helped this way could be counted.
"Elder Lin, this is my question."
Tang Rao took out the book from Liu Tao's family and also Jixing's translated book, handing them all to Elder Lin.
This book is truly profound. I can't grasp what it's saying.
Tang Rao could pretend to know something in front of Jixing, but not in front of an expert. A single look from him could see through Tang Rao's pretense.
"This book... you got it from Lao Liu's family?"
...
Even this he knew.
Tang Rao worried that Elder Lin might even guess Tang Rao's intentions.
"Yes, Liu Tao lent it to me. This book is very important to me. It's the only way for me to meet the person I want to see."
Tang Rao truthfully told Elder Lin, who nodded without even opening the book.
"This book I gave to the Liu Family; I thought over the years, no one could read these obscure texts. Didn't expect that you, you would take an interest in this book."
What, this book was said by Elder Lin, why didn't he mention it earlier?
It's fine, he helped such a huge favor; as long as the result is good in the end, it's a good thing for Tang Rao.
"Interested, for my family's sake, I must be interested."
Tang Rao's intentions were now very clear.
