"Dad, what do you think?"
After Qian Quan left, Zhao Chunjia asked his father-in-law, "Is he different from when you were in Riverside Town?"
Huang Pinghu shook his head, "His speech, state of mind, and attitude are just like back in Riverside Town. He was a pure and straightforward young man."
Zhao Chunjia pondered, "Dad, I remember you once told me the story of Huzi's Four Phases. You said he..."
Huang Pinghu smiled and shook his head, "If he were so powerful as to display the Four Phases, then he would be a born sage, a natural immortal."
The Four Phases they were talking about are from a story about Huzi, Liezi's master.
The story goes that when Liezi was young and in search of the Way, he met a soothsayer named Ji Xian, who could predict whether people would be alive or dead, being blessed or cursed. Liezi thought Ji Xian's Taoist practice surpassed even his master Huzi's.
