What's the best way to get to know a place as quickly as possible?
Answer: krypton gold.

Wu Yong can't move as long as he can, so Chu Fei can only go out to earn money...ahem...to get familiar with the environment.Wu Yong happened to stay to look after his family.

For now, Wu Yong is still pretty good.

But before leaving, Chu Fei still went to see his pet, the feathered snake.

The feathered serpent has been in the process of molting recently and is still in a dormant state.When he arrived, Chu Fei put it in his backpack, which was quite stable.

However, the outer scales had lost their luster, and it was obviously at the last moment.

The transforming feathered serpent does not eat or drink, except... the primary resurrection potion.

"You're a foodie. I feel like I've lost money." Chu Fei muttered, then opened the feathered snake's mouth and poured the potion in.The transforming feathered serpent smashed the bar a few times, but still didn't wake up.

This can be regarded as one of the weaknesses of snakes. Even a powerful sixth-level alien beast, equivalent to a human 11.0~12.0 awakened person (not an awakened person), has little resistance at this time.

After that, Chu Fei took the 2000 million cash sent by Qin Shuya and went out.

Krypton gold, isn’t it just shopping? Through shopping, you can understand the price level, resource situation, etc. here.

The first thing that costs money is communication equipment.

Unlike Dawn City and Feihu City, Hongsong City has a complete wireless broadcast network system. There are mobile phones, bracelets, etc. for sale here, as well as things like mobile phone card data.

It should be said that this place has initially returned to a civilized environment.The mobile phones and bracelets here are all produced later.Of course, this kind of mobile phones, bracelets, etc. can only communicate and do not have strong computing power.

In comparison, bracelets like Chu Fei's recovered from the ruins are precious.Especially the battery life calculated in thousands of years is the most practical.

When I applied for a mobile phone card, I used yesterday’s ID card.Seeing Chu Fei's level 10.0 ID card, the card holder was ten times more enthusiastic and promoted the bracelet—a bracelet unearthed from the ruins. The starting price was five zeros.

Chu Fei showed his bracelet, and under the "calm" operation of the other party, purchased a high-end package: there were signals in Red Pine City and more than a dozen high walls around it, and the functions were perfect.

Then Chu Fei found a place to buy maps and electronic maps, and started shopping.

When Dawn City and Feihu City were at their most prosperous, they were far from comparable to this place.

There is a sidewalk above and a transport road below.The broad street was busy with traffic, and there was an endless stream of teams transporting supplies; with Chu Fei's hearing, he could also hear different accents.

But if you want to hear the most authentic local accent, you need to listen to the words of ordinary people.

Chu Fei walked all the way, the wind of perception gently brushing the street, and he kept adjusting his accent.In just 10 minutes, Chu Fei was completely "localized".

It is really important to learn the local accent.At least when he attacked the robber for the first time outside the city, the robber immediately knew that he was not a local.

Integrating into the local area is a necessary survival skill.

At the same time, Chu Fei was also observing the situation of the masters here.The spiritual sense is quietly turned on, scanning the master's proportions.

But after just observing for a moment, he sighed slightly.There is a feeling that an awakened person is not as good as a dog.

Ordinary awakened people are not only everywhere, but they can be seen at any time.

But most people are in a hurry.

Next, Chu Fei bought one or two bottles of potion, some basic raw materials, and even went to the "mission hall" to post a mission and hired a tour guide for 500 yuan a day. The employer was responsible for all food, drink, accommodation and transportation.

The price was very low, but it was a walk around the city, and there were no requirements. As soon as the mission was released, a group of people surrounded Chu Fei.From teenagers to old warriors.

Because of his spiritual sense, Chu Fei can directly "see" a person's aura.

Chu Fei looked around and found an old soldier with a broken left arm. He was a semi-awakened person who looked like he was 50 years old.

In the eyes of the other party with joy, Chu Fei chose him and paid two days in advance.

1000 yuan is nothing to Chu Fei.Even if the inland currency value is high.

After leaving the mission hall, the old soldier said a little embarrassedly: "Well... little brother, do you think I can go home first?"

Although Chu Fei is young, his identity card of 10.0 is enough to make the veteran soldier bow his head.

Chu Fei nodded and said nothing. He just followed the old soldier silently to get familiar with his surroundings.

The old soldier skillfully left the busy street and walked to the side road.Less than 800 meters after leaving the street, [-]% of the surrounding prosperity is gone, with only old buildings stacked up.

Chu Fei stood at the door of a community, silently looking at the cracked building, and just waited silently at the door of the community.

Are things dire here?Maybe, but this is the norm.The same is true in Feihu City.In fact, if they can live in the inner city, these people can be considered top students in the apocalypse.

Judging from the weathered cement and rusted steel bars at the entrance of the community, the lifespan of these buildings is probably more than a hundred years.

For the next three days, Chu Fei almost measured this high wall with his feet and visited most places inside and outside the city.

Here, there are many things that Dawn City and Feihu City do not have.

In addition to various factories, there are also banks, communication companies, power companies, mission halls, trading centers, elixir trading centers, large and small research bases that can be rented, a complete school education system, and large-scale Huge weapons market and second-hand market, even...slaves!
Now that there are slaves, there are also casinos, arenas, etc.

There is civilization here, but also decadence, order and darkness.In the end, all of this was intertwined into the current Red Pine City.

This is a high wall that relies on trade hubs to exist. It may have been the front line against the apocalypse, but now it has been "retired" and enjoying retirement life.

The dozen or so high walls outside Red Pine City are the resources and new front line of Red Pine City.

Of course, it's not exactly retirement life. Red Pine City now mainly supports technology, medicine, resource deep processing, etc. for the front line, and also communicates with other high walls in the interior.

Here is a bridge.

For Chu Fei, settling in Red Pine City is the best choice.We have reached the inland, but it is only the edge of the inland.

As for how to judge the inland range, of course... Lucheng!
In the guide's mouth, Chu Fei heard the word "Lucheng" again.

It turns out that there are also different spheres of influence in the interior.Red Pine City belongs to a sphere of influence called "Thunder Land City".

That's right, it was the Thunder Land City that Chu Fei saw when he first came to this world.

This land city is not static, but is patrolling within its own territory.There will be a patrol every three to five years.

Patrolling is not only to divide the area, but also to promote communication. It is also to find outstanding talents to join Lu Cheng.

Bringing geniuses into Lu City for training is itself a means of governance, and every genius has a tail hanging behind it.

Three days later, Chu Fei came to the door of the mission hall again, but the old soldier looked a little sad.Three wonderful days are over.In these three days, Chu Fei's food was naturally not bad, and he was not short of a veteran soldier.

Just watching Chu Fei submit the task and make the final settlement, the old soldier struggled for a long time and finally stood in front of Chu Fei when Chu Fei went out.

But before the old soldier could speak, Chu Fei smiled and said, "Have you thought about it?"

The old soldier was stunned for a moment, and then suddenly realized: "Have you already been fine?"

Chu Fei suppressed his smile and said calmly: "The reward for an awakened person is only 30 to 50. I will give you 30 and give me your life."

"Okay! The remaining half of my life, Xue Hao, belongs to you from today on." As he spoke, he stared at Chu Fei closely.

Chu Fei directly put a bag of cash into the hands of the old soldier, "30, count it. If you count it in person, you won't recognize it afterwards."

"Okay." Xue Hao didn't show any pretense. He counted the 30 in cash and put it away in front of Chu Fei.

This happened right at the door of the mission hall. When Xue Hao was counting the cash, there were people watching around him.

Seeing Xue Hao put away the cash, the door of the mission hall suddenly exploded.

"Mr. Chu, do you think I can do it? I don't want 30, but 20, just 20!"

"Mr. Chu, I'll give you one hundred thousand, one hundred thousand in ten years."

"Mr. Chu..."

Chu Fei silently looked around and smiled softly, "Everyone, please go back first. If I need someone, Xue Hao will come over."

After saying that, Xue Hao, who was still a little confused, returned to the community first, then left directly with his family and entered Chu Fei's place.

Xue Hao's family consists of an old wife and a son who is said to be a mercenary.To be precise, the only son left.

Regarding these, Chu Fei didn't ask too much. Xue Hao just put a note on the door, left a message for his son's mercenary group at the public phone in the community, and left with Chu Fei.

As an ordinary soldier who retired from injury, Xue Hao's family obviously did not have the money to buy expensive communication equipment.This is the end of the world, and the target customer base of communication services does not include ordinary people.

Arriving at Chu Fei's courtyard, Xue Hao looked up and saw a cartoon-style plaque hanging on the door:

【Apprentice Alchemist】

Xue Hao opened his mouth, wanting to say something, but in the end he said nothing.

My new employer, or "master", is quite interesting.Others are deeply afraid that their ability to make medicine is not good enough, but you are better off. Giving yourself such a name, are you afraid that you are not good enough?

After entering the door, Chu Fei arranged a room for Xue Hao and his wife, and then started to explain the work.

Chu Fei actually thought carefully about hiring Xue Hao.

Veteran soldiers who can survive to more than 50 years old are definitely true 'having an old man in a family is like having a treasure'.At least Xue Hao basically knows everything about things here in Hongsong City.

After all, Chu Fei was not at ease with the person Qin Shuya matched him with.After all, these people's heel is not with them. If you want to be 100% loyal, don't even think about it.

On the contrary, people like Xue Hao can be cultivated.

As for the age issue, it's not a big issue.Anyway, Chu Fei will stay here for at most three years.

Also, as a veteran warrior, I have some connections.And those who can retain connections at this age should be more credible.

These are what Chu Fei likes.

As for the old fool and other issues, Chu Fei has spent three days to verify that it does not exist.

In fact, everything was as Chu Fei expected. Xue Hao quickly got started with his current job, training, directing, and busying the people sent by Qin Shuya, and at the same time supervising the quality of the project.

That evening, Xue Hao's third son, Xue Dabao, found this place.After Chu Fei nodded, Xue Dabao resigned from his original job in the mercenary group and moved to Chu Fei.

But Chu Fei no longer has time to take care of these things, because Chu Fei has something more important: practice.

After sorting out the problems in life, Chu Fei immediately devoted himself to practice.

At this moment, Wu Yong is teaching Chu Fei about the "enlightened ones".

As the saying goes, "full and warm thoughts" have made progress, everything has stabilized, and the cultivation level has reached 9.9. Chu Fei finally began to formally contact and understand things related to the "enlightened person".

Wu Yong took some handwritten information, which he had compiled in the past three days, and spoke:

"Before we talk about the difference between enlightened people and awakened people, let's review the relationship and differences between semi-awakened people, half-awakened people, and fully awakened people. Please talk about it first."

Chu Fei thought for a moment and said: "There are actually no requirements for a semi-awakened person. All that is required is that the construction of the cosmic brain is completed and the potential index exceeds 7.8 to be considered a semi-awakened person. If it can exceed 7.9, it is considered to be an advanced semi-awakened person.

Then the promotion from semi-awakened to awakened people divided into two directions due to foundation and other reasons.

One is a semi-awakened person, formerly known as an ordinary awakened person. A semi-awakened person adds the logic of Euclidean space to the universe's brain.

One is a fully awakened person, with the logic of Hilbert space added to the universe’s brain.

The relationship between the three, whether fully awakened or ordinary awakened, all develop from the semi-awakened.But one is just more perfect. "

Wu Yong: "That's right, but it's just the surface. Big data practice is the result of science, and it also requires us to start from the fundamentals when thinking about problems.

Then try to analyze, what are the fundamental differences between the three?
Is it mathematical logic?Is it scientific knowledge?Is it a potential index?Or is it consciousness, or the mind, or the observer effect, or what Cao Liwen calls greed? "

Chu Fei originally wanted to say 'logic', but at this time he fell into thinking.

Countless thoughts flashed through his heart, and suddenly a thought flashed through Chu Fei's mind: "It's attributes! Yes, it's attributes, it's human attributes.

Human spirituality is originally a collection of negative entropy. It was once described and studied as a 'Boltzmann brain', but now it is described as a cosmic brain.

The cosmic brain we practice now is a completely different concept from the theoretical cosmic brain.Perhaps when we become truly pure data beings, we will be the theoretical cosmic brain.

In the cosmic brain, or negentropy theory, there is an important concept, which is 'order'. '

But whether it is negative entropy, order, intelligence, good or evil, laziness, etc., they are actually human attributes! "

After Wu Yong heard Chu Fei's explanation, he was suddenly stunned for a moment and looked at Chu Fei without speaking.

"What's wrong, Master?" Chu Fei was a little confused by Wu Yong's look. (End of chapter)
