Chapter 10, what is this nonsense
Completion Reward: One villa on the southern coast of Feisuo Port
Hua Zhenxing: "We cannot go to the port area now; as soon as you get close, you will be exposed. Even if you manage to board the ship, you won't be able to escape. Dr. Luo, what was your original plan for leaving?"
The Dream Nation Mission System
Wait! There is no person named Feng Zibin in the world; he is merely a figment of his imagination. Hua Zhenxing thought carefully and realized that the reason he dreamed of these things was likely because the three old men who often debated in the grocery store had each presented similar viewpoints to him from different angles.
For a specific goal, establish a "system" in your mind, formulate a plan, and release tasks step by step. The reward for each task is essentially the result of completing the plan, but it can also be something else that you set for yourself, such as treating yourself to a hot pot.
The official language of Jili Country is Lansi, as it was once a colony of the Lansi Kingdom. Nowadays, Yin is more widely spoken and has become a common language for international communication. Rothschild is a descendant of the Banya nation, so he also speaks Banya. However, the local people hardly understand Banya, which makes communication more secure.
Hua Zhenxing's next reaction was to clarify the state of this system. Just as he had speculated with the two old men, Hua Zhenxing did not panic. He discovered that as long as he focused and summoned it, this "system" would appear very clearly in his consciousness. He tried several times, and the "system" showed no changes; it was still the same content as before.
After Dr. Luo finished speaking, he hung up the phone. Hua Zhenxing had a feeling that Dr. Luo must know why Jin Datou wanted to kill him, and also who had placed the bounty. Otherwise, he would not have asked so few questions.
Task 1: Escort Dr. Rothschild to safety.
Rothschild: "I plan to take a boat, and I have friends who can help, but I just couldn't get in touch with them, so I can only go to the international pier and figure something out myself"
The sound of the gunshot was peculiar, resembling the shattering of a glass bottle. It was the gun fired by Hua Zhenxing. He usually kept the small pistol hidden behind the curtains, but at this moment, it was on his person. After undergoing sound suppression modifications, its effective range was only forty meters, but at such a close distance, that was more than sufficient
To the north of Feisuo Port lies a rolling landscape of hills and vast plains, where grasslands and sparse jungles are interspersed. Various wild animals roam freely, yet human presence is rarely seen, and there are almost no landmarks to identify. By the time Hua Zhenxing arrived here, he regretted not having taken out Old Yang's off-road vehicle; it seemed he had not thought this through adequately.
Completion reward: 30,000 meters of gold
Xia Er indeed came as well. Jin Datou sent a total of three gunmen. Xia Er saw Hua Zhenxing shoot down one of them and surprisingly shot dead another accomplice. The reason Hua Zhenxing did not fire was that he had already seen Xia Er aiming at his accomplice from the side and behind, rather than pointing the gun at the car
Precisely speaking, it is not any specific form of writing, but rather a piece of information that emerges in the senses. It can be heard, seen, or even resemble something dreamt, presented in the most familiar manner within consciousness. If represented in a combination of images and text, it should be as follows.
The block outside the back door of the hospital is relatively clean, and the buildings are also quite tidy, with many apartments for medical staff. Rothschild has another residence on the southern coast, but he only goes there during vacations; he usually resides in the apartments here for the convenience of commuting to work
With a distance of only 150 kilometers, why did Rothschild initially not plan to take the road? Because there is essentially no road from Fuso Port to Miri City, or rather, there are roads everywhere, making it easy for those unfamiliar with the terrain to get lost
On the other end of the phone, Rothschild was silent for several seconds, his breathing momentarily heavy and disordered. When he finally spoke again, he had mostly regained his composure and spoke in a formal tone: "Hua, thank you! I know what to do now, I will find someone to help. I will leave Feso Port today. You should hurry back and make sure that the people from Big Head do not find out."
Dr. Luo's arrival was sudden, leaving no time for preparation, and his car was parked behind the apartment building. Hua Zhenxing waited for a while, but when Dr. Luo did not come out, the phone rang again, with an urgent tone: "Hua, are you familiar with the roads in Feisuo Port? Can you help me find a safe route, one that won't be discovered by the Big Head Gang, to take me to the international dock"
Hua Zhenxing fired decisively, raising his hand and hitting the person's head. Faced with the gun's muzzle, there was no mercy, and there was simply no time to hesitate; otherwise, in the next moment, it would be Dr. Luo or himself who would be shot.
Not long after, Dr. Luo hurriedly arrived. If it weren't for the prior phone call, he probably wouldn't have recognized Hua Zhenxing squatting in the corner by the wall. After greeting him, Dr. Luo went upstairs to get some things, and the two of them moved to the back of the building to fetch the car. The parking area was already on another street, separated from the back door of the hospital by a row of apartment buildings
No one can guarantee that they will not be injured or fall ill one day, and when that time comes, they will all need to be taken to the hospital for life-saving treatment. Ensuring the safety of the hospital is equivalent to ensuring the safety of everyone. Although many locals believe in witchcraft, when even the witch doctors are unable to help, such as in the case of a gunshot wound requiring emergency care, one still has to obediently go to the hospital
It is temporarily safe, Dr. Luo poked his head out from the back seat and asked, "How long will it take to reach the international dock?"
Dr. Luo was taken aback as Hua Zhenxing had already taken off his backpack and thrown it onto the passenger seat, then took the keys and said: "You sit in the back, lie down."
Hua Zhenxing almost jumped up. Could it be that the influence of the dream was so great that it caused an illusion? Once his mind became scattered, the perception of this piece of information vanished, yet it had indeed existed in his consciousness and still remained vividly in his memory at this moment. Hua Zhenxing's first reaction was surprisingly to recall a detail from the dream
Upon answering the phone, I only heard Rothschild asking: "Hua, is there something urgent? I just finished surgery and saw several missed calls."
The Nonso Port International Hospital is the "safe zone" of this city, and not bringing conflicts to the international hospital is a "clear rule" that all parties adhere to. Official armed personnel guard the hospital, and no one else is allowed to bring weapons inside.
Hua Zhenxing: "Let's drive directly across the border to Temaguo Meili City, and then go from the airport. It's only 150 kilometers, and I know the way, so it's safer this way. You can use your American passport to purchase an outbound flight ticket there, and you won't need an entry record; they don't check that."
This approach can cultivate a quality where behavioral patterns align with thought patterns. A person not only lives in the present, but more importantly, makes choices in the present; each choice determines the future. This seems to reflect the perspective of Feng Zibin, the founder of the Land of Imagination.
Having rushed all the way here, my heart raced a bit faster. Hua Zhenxing adjusted his breathing, focused his mind, and secretly observed. Unaccountably, he recalled that dream, and he couldn't help but feel a bit dazed. Suddenly, a few lines of text appeared before his eyes
The car surged into the alley, and Hua Zhenxing held the steering wheel with one hand while aiming the gun out the window. At that moment, another gunshot rang out. However, it was not fired by Hua Zhenxing. Positioned between two other buildings, another person fell to the ground, shot. Hua Zhenxing saw that the shooter was Xia Er.
Hua Zhenxing: "Someone is catching up to us, we can't shake them off!"
Doctor Luo is speaking in Yanyu, while Hua Zhenxing, however, speaks in Banya: "Doctor Luo, pay attention! Someone wants to kill you. They have hired Jin Datou for 30,000 gold meters to take action. Feisuo Port is very dangerous. I am waiting right next to your apartment building to escort you out"
Doctor Luo's vehicle is a pickup truck, which is colloquially known as a "half-section beauty" in Dongguo. It has two rows of seats in the front and a cargo bed in the back. Doctor Luo's half-section beauty is manufactured in the United States, offering ample space and superior off-road capabilities compared to ordinary sedans, but it is somewhat old and clearly cannot run too fast on this terrain. As Hua Zhenxing was regretting, he suddenly slowed down and said: "Doctor Luo, get out of the car"
Hua Zhenxing certainly would not leave, especially after the inexplicable emergence of the "task system"; it made it even less likely for him to depart. Feisuo Port does not have an airport, and the nearest international airport within the country is two hundred kilometers away, located in the capital city of Mowang in Qili Country. To leave Feisuo Port, one can only travel by sea or land, and regardless of the route taken, one must first set out from the hospital
Hua Zhenxing: "I am familiar with the roads to Feisuo Port, but going to the dock now is tantamount to seeking death. In any case, you should hurry and pack up; I will escort you out." Although Old Yang and Master Mo did not warn him about the dangers of taking the sea route, Hua Zhenxing thought of it himself.
In his dream, the so-called "system" five hundred years later no longer belongs to the realm of the mysterious but rather to the realm of application. As long as the cultivation technique reaches level three, one can create their own "system" to play with; it is merely a psychological technique at the level of consciousness.
No one would have expected that Hua Zhenxing would take Luochai De to the airport by land, with the destination not being the capital city of Mowang City in Jili Country, but rather the capital city of Meili City in the northern neighboring country of Tema Country, as it is closer and also has an international airport
Task 2: Investigate the details behind the Big Head Gang's intention to kill Dr. Rothschild
If one were to consider assassinating Rothschild, the route from the hospital's back door to the apartment building is not the optimal location, at least not during the day, as there are armed guards at the hospital's back door who can see the front of the apartment building. However, this is the best place to locate and track Dr. Roth.
Rothschild: "What happened?"
But what is this "system"? Is it a side effect of that dream? In the dream, his nurturing technique had already reached the third level. Does that mean that after waking up, he gained the ability of the "system"? That doesn't make sense either, as this system wasn't created by him! Moreover, what is the deal with the "30,000 meters of gold" and the "set of villas"?
Someone once asked Feng Zibin a question: Do ideals determine the current situation, or does the current situation determine ideals? Feng Zibin replied that the ideals of ten years ago determined today's situation, and today's ideals will determine the situation ten years from now. If one treats ideals as goals and puts them into plans and actions, the ideals may not be fully realized, but a person's circumstances will certainly change in the way they hope for
Dr. Luo had just opened the car door when someone suddenly emerged from behind the corner of a building across the street, raised a gun, and then the gun went off.
The chaotic streets forced Hua Zhenxing to frequently slow down and honk the horn, trying to find a clear route through Feisuo Port towards the northern suburbs. Along the way, he hurriedly stopped to buy two large barrels of mineral water, and after half an hour, he finally arrived in the wilderness
This approach may seem merely self-entertaining, yet it holds deeper significance. Many instructors of the art of nurturing vitality also recommend that individuals select a specific goal to experiment with. It can encourage a person to gradually progress towards the established objective, and upon the completion of each phase of the plan, one can unlock a sense of achievement and satisfaction
Hua Zhenxing put away his gun and drove through the alley, while Xia Er pretended to have chased after him, randomly firing a few shots to the sides before turning and running away. Hua Zhenxing was very surprised that Xia Er would do this, as he surely would inform Jin Datou that it was Dr. Luo who shot and killed two people while escaping, and that there were bodyguards around Dr. Luo.
Hua Zhenxing did not find any snipers around; the gangsters in Feisuo Port were not capable of such advanced techniques. They usually only fired at close range, otherwise, where the bullets would land was anyone's guess. He called Dr. Luo several times, but could not get through; Dr. Luo was likely still in surgery. Thus, he sat quietly waiting in the corner of the apartment building.
However, he at least understood two things: first, that a so-called system had appeared in his consciousness, the authenticity of its information still needing confirmation; second, that he had mastered how to "summon" this "system"... Just then, Dr. Luo called.
After "Fantasy Country" and "Task Two," there are progress bars, and the current displayed progress appears to be zero percent.
