Imagine the world

Hua Zhenxing also stood up, but his expression was a little dazed.Standing outside the door was a lady, more precisely a girl, who looked like she was in her early twenties.At first glance, she is a beautiful woman with delicate makeup, but if you look closely, she actually has no makeup at all. Can she look so good without makeup?

Chapter 003 You Made Me Do This

Compared with her age, the girl's dress looks a little mature. She is wearing a light-colored skirt, and her figure is also mature. I have to say that she is just right.She didn't have a straight face, she looked very kind with a faint smile on her face, but she vaguely gave people a feeling that she could only admire but not very close.

This seems to be a kind of temperament that has been cultivated invisibly by those who have been in the upper position for a long time. It is a bit strange to appear in a girl.

When Hua Zhenxing was stunned, the girl replied, "I happen to be right here, and I'll come over when I hear the news." After speaking, he went straight to Huazhenxing and stretched out his hand, "My name is Yunmo, and I'm Chunrongdan. Director of the Center, nice to meet you!"

Hua Zhenxing held the other person's hand and said in a dull tone: "My name is Hua Zhenxing, I'm an employee who just entered the center... Senior, hello!" Her hands were soft and her skin was very delicate and comfortable to touch, but Hua Zhenxing It was really easy to hold it lightly and then quickly released it.

Hearing this name, Hua Zhenxing was almost stunned. After holding back for a long time, he actually came up with the title of "senior", because the identity of this Ms. Yunmo is so special.Like Hua Zhenxing, she was also an outstanding graduate of Feisuo University. After graduation, she joined the Chunrongdan Center to work, but that happened exactly 100 years ago.

Yun Mo is 120 years old this year, exactly the same age as Old Man Yang.More than 40 years ago, Yunmo served as the head of state of Huanxiang Country for ten years, before Hua Zhenxing was born.She is also a senior master of Yangyuanshu. After the end of her term as head of state, she did not retire, but continued to serve as the general manager of Chunrongdan Group.

Yun Mo rarely shows up at the Fesuogang Center on weekdays. There is an executive deputy director in the center who is in charge of daily work. Huazhenhang also only heard his name and did not see him. I didn't expect that she would come to visit today.

Hua Zhenxing has seen photos of her 40 years ago. At that time, she was only 80 years old, so it is not unusual for her to look very young.As Yunmo, I am afraid that he has already taken nine boxes of Chunrong Pills, which should have the effect of "retaining beauty for 60 years". In addition, insisting on practicing the Yangyuan technique can "enhance the effect of Chunrong Pills for ten years". It's also possible to be afraid that your 90s will look like your 20s.

But this year she is more than 120 years old, why does she seem younger than the video data left 40 years ago?

Old man Yang already looked young enough, if he looked only five or sixty years old by the standards of 500 years ago, but that's not too exaggerated.

And Yun Mo's appearance can no longer be described by exaggeration. He seems to be a peer of Huazhenxing. Even in Huanxianguo, it is impossible to judge a woman's age only by her appearance, but this is too incredible!

There have been rumors for hundreds of years that Huanxiangguo has already developed a drug that is more effective than Chunrongdan, but it has been kept secret and undisclosed, or it can be called Chunrongdan version 2.0.All over the world, there are many speculations about the effect of the suspected Chunrong Dan version 2.0, the most exaggerated of which is that it can make people stay young forever.

Seeing Yun Mo himself today, Hua Zhenxing couldn't help but think of this rumor again. He wanted to ask if Chunrong Dan version 2.0 really existed and Yun Mo had taken it before, but he didn't want to take the liberty to speak.

Yun Mo held the bag in his left hand, and after shaking hands, he sat down and put the bag at his feet, and said with a smile, "I took the time to read the briefing on Zhu Meng's situation on the way here, and I also learned about the incident. What do you do? Well done, I would like to express my thanks on behalf of the center!"

Hua Zhenxing said shyly: "As soon as I reported the case, people were arrested, and even you were disturbed. Did I destroy your established plan?"

Yang Tehong interjected: "I can't blame Xiaohua. His secret level is not enough, and he can't get in touch with the special intelligence department. But the boy is sober enough and directly connected to the security department of Fesuo Port."

Huazhenxing hurriedly nodded and said, "I just attended the confidentiality training at the center."

Yun Mo turned his head and said, "Yang Tehong, this is your third violation of discipline today."

Old man Yang slapped his forehead: "Oh, I will write down the violation of discipline in this action report and apply for punishment!"

Yun Mo said with a faint smile, "Then you haven't gone back yet, there's a lot of finishing work waiting! You're the one who led the action, so why don't you just let it go now?"

The old man Yang said embarrassingly: "Let's go now, let's go now! You talk, you talk slowly!" He got up and left, as if he didn't know what to do, and took the door behind him.

Old man Yang violated discipline three times today?Combined with the confidentiality training he received recently, Hua Zhenxing understood the general idea after careful consideration.The first violation of discipline should be that old man Yang exposed his identity in front of him.You must know that old man Yang is a long-term lurker, and he has opened a canteen for 20 years, so he lurked well, why couldn't he help himself and jumped out?

The second violation of discipline was what the old man Yang said, claiming to be one of the three people with the highest level of secrecy in the entire center.Important information like this is not necessarily known to the secret service personnel involved in the behavior, and cannot be easily disclosed.

As for the third violation of discipline, it was the hint in the interjection just now.The old man Yang said that Huazhenxing's level is not enough, and there is a special intelligence department with a higher level than the security department of Fesuogang City, but as Huazhenxing, he has no access.According to the principle of "don't say what shouldn't be said", old man Yang has indeed violated discipline.

After Old Man Yang left, Yun Mo sat there and watched Hua Zhenxing with great interest. The feeling that the superior person was unapproachable disappeared inexplicably.If you don't know her identity, this scene is easy to create an illusion - does this girl like this guy?

Her gaze made Hua Zhenxing bow his head a little embarrassedly, only to hear her smile again: "When you heard my name, your reaction seemed to be puzzled, do you have anything to ask?"

Hua Zhenxing finally said, "Does the rumored improved version of Chunrong Dan really exist?"

Yun Mo couldn't help laughing, she was clearly a big girl, she replied with a smile: "Chunrong Dan version 2.0 never existed, you want to ask me why I'm still so young? Actually, this question is hundreds of years old. Someone asked before."

Hua Zhenxing: "Huh?"

Yun Mo explained: "At that time, someone asked Mr. Feng Zibin, is there a 2.0 version of Chunrong Dan? Since he has developed Chunrong Dan, can he develop a truly youthful medicine? Feng Zibin replied. Either or not, because the answer is the art of nourishing the soul, and it can be done by becoming a master of the art of nourishing the soul.”

Hua Zhenxing: "Then you are..."

Yunmo: "I have never taken Chunrong Pill, but at the age of 23, I was already a master of the advanced Yuanyang technique."

Hua Zhenxing was shocked: "So young!"

Yun Mo: "Actually, many masters of Yang Yuanshu in the world are not very old when they break through to the advanced level. This is not just accumulation of time, but more importantly, talent."

Hua Zhenxing: "What's more important is talent? Can't you work hard without talent?"

Yun Mo was not impatient at all, and continued to explain: "We are lucky enough, because we are human beings, otherwise you would try to let a stone practice the technique of nourishing the soul? Maybe what you said is right, what is too demanding, what if you don't have talent? Efforts will not succeed, but only talent will never succeed without hard work.

Talent determines the upper limit of what you can achieve, and how hard you work determines your lower limit.Why does Huanxiangguo include Yangyuanshu in compulsory education?I just don't want talented children to be buried, and I don't want hard-working children to sink.Of course, there are many kinds of human talents, and not all of them are reflected in the practice of cultivating the essence of life. "

Hua Zhenxing: "When you become an advanced master of Yang Yuanshu, you can stay young forever. You just said that most of the masters of Yangyuanshu were very young when they broke through to the advanced level, but what I saw was not the case."

Although Hua Zhenxing had never been in contact with Master Yang Yuanshu before, he had read a lot of information. There were still some Master Yang Yuanshu in the world who were well known to the public, and their appearance did not look as exaggeratedly young as Yun Mo.

Yun Mo pursed his lips again and said with a smile: "The description represents the state of mind, and the appearance of a fairy with fluttering white hair is not a bad idea, so there is no need to worry about this issue."

Huazhenxing changed the question again: "Have you been eyeing Zhu Meng for a long time? I mean the special intelligence department that Mr. Yang said."

Yun Mo: "I read the briefing on the way here. When he went to Dongguo Chunhua University as an exchange student in his fourth year of college, he was already noticed here, thinking that he might have abnormal behavior and was included in the observation. list."

As Yun Mo, of course, he wouldn't personally pay attention to a person like Zhu Meng, but Zhu Meng has indeed been noticed by the intelligence department of Huanxianguo, and he has kept records.

Hua Zhenxing: "Then you..."

Yun Mo: "You want to ask why a key department like Chunrong Dan Center still hires him? There are actually two reasons. First, although the intelligence department thinks he has suspicious behavior, there is no evidence that he has endangered national security. Motivation and behavior.

He was already a citizen of Huanxiangguo at that time and fully met the hiring conditions. We should not use out-of-the-box doubts to injustice or even affect his life. It would be unfair.

Second, if he really has a problem, since he has been placed on the watch list, he can find it early.Our most important target is not Zhu Meng, but the intelligence group behind Zhu Meng. "

It was inconvenient for Yun Mo to say some words directly. Hua Zhenxing took a turn to figure it out. It seemed like he was fishing?The intelligence department had long suspected that there was something wrong with Zhu Meng, and after waiting for several years, he finally did it!Using this as a clue, what is to be traced is the force represented by Mr. A and Girl B.

Thinking of this, Hua Zhenxing touched his forehead again and said, "Then have I ruined your plan?"

Yun Mo: "Everyone's responsibilities are different. You have done nothing wrong in your capacity. Not only should you not be blamed, but you should also be commended!"

Hua Zhenxing: "Zhu Meng stole the real pill, didn't he?"

However, Yun Mo shook his head and said, "What he stole this time is the most complete record of pill recipes so far. Because he has a relatively high level of contact and involves Academician Zheng Zhongzhi, I will go here on purpose."

Hua Zhenxing was stunned: "Then you originally planned to let him pass the information on?"

Yun Mo asked back, "You don't think Chunrong Dan's formula has never been leaked, do you?"

The unexpected situation made Hua Zhenxing a little overwhelmed, and he was shocked: "Isn't it?"

Yun Mo said in a soft voice: "As far as I know, in the past 100 years alone, there have been 76 incidents of leaks of Chunrong Dan's recipes in different forms. This is still an incomplete statistics, because there are still some leaks that we don't know about. Understood. Among these 76 leaks, there were four leaks that could confirm the complete recipe, today's incident is not counted, because Zhu Meng has not succeeded yet."

It has been more than 400 years since Chunrongdan came into being. Today, raw material processing and production and processing bases are all over the world, and more than 200 million employees are employed in the production process.With such a huge system and such a long period of time, it is impossible for the technical information of every link to be kept secret forever.It is untrue to say that Chun Rong Dan Dan Fang never leaked. "

After being stunned for a long time, Hua Zhenxing asked, "Then, then why..."

Yun Mo stopped the conversation and said, "Then why haven't there been similar competing products in the world? I'm afraid no legal enterprise group or government agency would publicly claim that they stole the pill recipe of Chunrong Dan, even if they claimed so privately, Others may not believe it.

Facts are the standard for testing the effect. The effect of Chunrong Dan needs time to test. It will take at least 30 years to have preliminary results, and 60 years to have complete results. Moreover, there must be enough samples to participate in the test, and there must be enough Credibility and persuasion make everyone believe in this result.

Where can such a large-scale test group be organized, it will take 60 to [-] years to verify, and it has to be proved to the whole world?Chunrongdan has completed this process in history, and it took hundreds of years before it was recognized by the whole world.

Over the past few hundred years, there have been many products in the world that claim to have similar effects to Chunrong Dan. Many of them are false, but I am afraid there are also true ones.The most important point is that for a product like Chunrong Dan, the most valuable thing is not the pill recipe. There is one thing that no one can steal. "

Hua Zhenxing: "What is it?"

Yun Mo suddenly asked, "Do you know how many mid-level Yuan Yang instructors there are in Huanxiangguo?"

Hua Zhenxing: "I don't know the exact number."

Yunmo: "You don't need an exact number, just know the approximate number. There are 20. And how many intermediate Yangyuanshu instructors are there in the world?"

Hua Zhenxing: "There are almost 50."

Yunmo: "Then do you know in which fields the 20 Yangyuanshu instructors in Huanxiangguo work the most? I can tell you the answer. The number of people working in major education and training institutions ranks second, with nearly 2 5 people, ranking first in the Chunrong Dan production group, with a total of [-] people!

These 5 people are very important, but the operating system of the entire society is even more important!It is so huge and complex that it is unimaginable, and it took hundreds of years to become sound, and every link is indispensable.Even if someone gets the prescription, where can we find enough sources of raw materials, repeat all the production lines, organize and train enough professional and technical personnel?

Small-scale production may be fine, but how large can the volume be and how expensive can it be?It is more like the self-entertainment of ancient alchemists, let alone replacing Chunrong Dan.You just asked if there is a 2.0 version of Chunrong Dan?In fact, the question is exactly the opposite, Chunrong Dan itself is a 2.0, 3.0 or even 8.0, 9.0 version.

Chunrong Dan's current formula is to decompose and simplify every production and processing link as much as possible, making large-scale industrial production possible.Origin, output, cost, quality control, production organization, personnel training, this huge system spreads all over the world, how much does it cost to build from scratch?What's the use of stealing a mere pill?

Therefore, for Chunrong Dan, the most valuable and important thing is not the pill recipe, but today's wishful country. "

These words sounded shocking, and Hua Zhenxing said: "Then why... Forget it, I won't ask!"

As if he knew what he was thinking, Yun Mo smiled again: "If you want to ask, just ask. Do you want to say, since Huanxiangguo doesn't care whether the Dan Fang is rumored or not, why should it be so strict? Since Dan Fang It's been leaked long ago, why are there so many people going forward to steal it?"

We don't care if anyone can get Danfang, but it doesn't mean we welcome this kind of behavior, and we will still be on guard.Just because a thief is capable, doesn't mean stealing is right.Like the organization that used Zhu Meng this time, trying to destroy them is the best result. The harm they can cause is not just stealing pill recipes!

No matter who it is, as long as it is not directly obtained from Huanxiangguochun Rongdan Group, it is not certain that it is true, and it is even less certain whether the production process is the latest.Therefore, there are always people who want to steal the pills. Since they can't stop it, we might as well take advantage of the situation, so that we can see who is using what methods, and we can find out who our enemy is.

In history, someone once controlled the origin of some raw materials, extorted Huanxianguo by forcing the production to stop, and made various unreasonable demands.We negotiated while looking for alternative raw materials, and this happened more than once.

The 120 medicinal materials of the original Danfang, plus the substitutes we found, now there are [-] kinds of raw materials for the production of Chunrong Dan.The pill that Zhu Meng stole this time is the latest complete version.

Most people don't get the complete pill recipe, but a certain link in the production process. Even if they get the complete pill recipe, they will always think that some key technical information is missing.There are no more than ten people in the entire Wonderland who can give a definite answer, and I happen to be one of them. "

Having said that, Yun Mo bent down and took out something from the leather bag under his feet. Upon closer inspection, it turned out to be a book.Books printed on paper are already very old tools, and it is very inconvenient to search and query, and cannot carry information such as audio, video, and touch.

But books have not disappeared. Every city in Huanxiangland has a library museum dedicated to preserving paper books of various ages, and new books are still being published today.Some people like the tradition since ancient times. They feel that it is very tasteful to read with paper prints, and it is also very stylish to use for home decoration.

The book Yun Mo took out was very thick, like a large-format dictionary, and handed it to Hua Zhenxing, only to see three big characters written on the cover - Chunrong Dan.

Hua Zhenxing wondered, "What is this?"

Yun Mo: "It's the pill recipe of Chunrong Dan, something that countless people want."

Hua Zhenxing: "How is it possible that there is only so much content, such a book is all recorded?"

Yun Mo nodded and said, "Of course, the content of Dan Fang is far more than a book. Among the materials that Zhu Meng stole, there are tens of thousands of hours of holographic video content alone, not to mention other records. .

But this recipe is different. It is the earliest version, without any introduction to modern production techniques, nor the invention of the entire industrial system needed to produce it.

Any master of nourishing essence, even if it is only a mid-level teacher of nourishing essence with high enough level, as long as he has mastered the various special abilities required for refining Chunrong Pill, he is willing to spend time searching for all kinds of medicinal materials and making the most A basic tool that can be crafted in the oldest manual way. "

The so-called pill recipe is not a simple prescription, unlike some people who think it can be written on a piece of paper.The document Zhu Meng stole contained the entire system of producing Chunrong Pill... However, the most primitive and concise pill recipe was a paper book in his hand.

The gap between the two symbolizes the role played by the entire social civilization.The advancement of science and technology can turn the enjoyment of only a few people into a popular daily necessities, and can also turn myths into reality, and even make people accustomed to it.

Hua Zhenxing held the book in his hand and whispered, "As I am, I shouldn't be qualified to read this book, right? Is it a violation of discipline if you put it in my hands?"

Yun Mo smiled and said, "As I am, if necessary, I am qualified to authorize you to view this information... just take a look."

After all, Huazhenxing couldn't help but be curious. He cautiously turned to the first page, and then said in surprise, "Is this handwritten?"

Yunmo: "This is written by Mr. Feng Zibin, the founder of Huanxiang Kingdom, in lowercase script, and the paper is also specially made. This book has a history of more than 400 years. Please read it slowly, and I won't bother you for now!" "

Such a book, I am afraid it can be regarded as a national treasure of Huanxianguo. How could Yun Mo carry it with him, and even hand it over to Huazhenxing and let him read it slowly?This kind of completely illogical thing, I am afraid it only happens in a dream.

Hua Zhenxing felt like he was dreaming, and he was indeed dreaming, and he was a little confused: "Why?"

Yun Mo had already got up and walked to the door and said, "You asked me to do this." After saying these inexplicable words, he walked away and closed the door...

When Hua Zhenxing's consciousness gradually returned to clarity from the chaos, he already understood that it was just a dream.Just now, he was in a dream. After Yun Mo left, he had been reading the book, as if he was closing the last page...the dream woke up.No matter how he recalled at this moment, he couldn't remember what was written in the book, he only remembered that there were three words "Chunrong Dan" on the cover.

This feeling is very strange, it should be in memory, but I just can't remember it.Hua Zhenxing thought about it for a long time. Those characters in the dream, such as Zhu Meng and Yun Mo, he couldn't remember their appearance. Only one person's image was still alive... Isn't that the acquaintance he can meet every day!

The dream was really absurd and bizarre. He dreamed of old man Yang who opened a grocery store, but in the dream he changed his identity and opened a canteen 500 years later.Old man Yang's name is Yang Tehong, and Hua Zhenxing was raised by him.

Chapter 004 Dream and Reality

Many children have asked adults - where do I come from? "I picked it up from the rubbish heap" is always one of the answers for adults.For Huazhenxing, this is the standard answer.

Contrary to the dream, in reality, there have always been various conflicts on the Black Desolate Continent. In the country of a few miles, the tribal conflict 15 years ago was the worst riot in history, resulting in the death of tens of thousands of people. Cities further south spread to Port Fiso, where corpses were once everywhere.

At that time, in the streets filled with gunpowder smoke and stray bullets flying, Yang Tehong heard crying from a trash can on the side of the road. He rescued a baby from it. This child is Huazhenxing.

Yang Tehong is very special, which makes it hard to comment.He is very shrewd in business and even cares about everything. He likes to settle everything clearly. He is never willing to give benefits that should not be given, and he is unwilling to do things that are not good for him.

But on the other hand, he never does things that harm others and benefit himself, and he doesn't take advantage of things that shouldn't be taken advantage of.Even if it is a great benefit, as long as it is not what he should take, Old Man Yang will not even lift his eyelids.

For example, if there is no one at home and a lot of cash can be taken away quietly without being discovered, then 90.00% of the people here will take it.If there is one person in Fiso who can't do that, then this person must be old man Yang.

Old man Yang is not generous enough, and he is almost never involved in the matter of righteousness and wealth, but it is not enough to say that he is a stingy person. His personality is very easy-going, and he does not care about many things.

It's quite contradictory to say, a person who likes to care about business, gives Hua Zhenxing the impression that he "doesn't care", it always feels strange, but in the old man Yang, he got a perfect unity.

There are often expired foods in grocery stores. In fact, many food packages have a shelf life with allowances, and the ones that have just expired are not inedible. People here don’t care, but Old Man Yang never gives alms to beggars.

There are many beggars in Fesuogang. They are not professional beggars, but they are used to asking for money and things.Whenever there are foreigners or foreigners who are reasonably clean and tidy on the street, no matter what they are doing, there will always be a group of children around to ask for money, and some adults will also ask for it. was stolen.

If the well-dressed local bigwigs appeared on the street, people would gather around and ask for money, and the crowd was often blasted away by the entourages beside the bigwigs.It doesn't matter if you don't or not. If you want to get it, you will earn it. This is the most simple concept of the locals.

Old man Yang has lived here for many years, but he never gives anything.Old man Yang never sells expired items, he will let Huazhenhang take them out and throw them away.

Old man Yang asked Hua Zhenxing to throw things away, quietly, and in different places each time, just like being a thief.These things will definitely not be wasted, and they will be picked up in a blink of an eye.But old man Yang doesn't care, as long as he doesn't have anything to do with his own grocery store.

Hua Zhenxing had no objection to Old Man Yang's approach. He knew too well what the port of Fesso was.

Last year, a star who had already immigrated overseas was interviewed and recalled his childhood experiences.He was born in Fesuo Port. He remembers that when he was a teenager, he opened a local burger shop. A kind-hearted female clerk often quietly gave the leftover burgers from the day's sale to these hungry children in the middle of the night. At night he was always waiting at the back door of some burger joint...
