Teleport bracelet!
“Ding! Congratulations, Host, for completing the mission. You have received 3 lottery chances. You can activate the lottery at any time.”
Hearing the system prompt in his mind, Zhao Dongchuan couldn't help but feel a surge of excitement. It had been a long time since his last lottery draw, and he was finally going to experience the tension and thrill of it again.
Hehehe!
On this day, Zhao Dongchuan was, as usual, in the waiting room, poring over an algebra textbook, calculating various symbols and equations, when he suddenly heard the system prompt.
It seemed Zhang Jian had finally stabilized the situation these past few days, not letting his efforts go to waste.
No more talking, time to draw!
Zhao Dongchuan used his mind to activate a triple draw!
“Ding! Bronze Treasure Chest * 1”
“Ding! Bronze Treasure Chest * 1”
“Ding! Silver Treasure Chest * 1”
As the prompts came, three treasure chests quickly appeared in his item bar, emitting dazzling light.
Two Bronze Treasure Chests, one Silver Treasure Chest!
“Oh ho, not bad, I actually drew another Silver Treasure Chest!!!” Zhao Dongchuan chuckled.
“Wonderful, wonderful, time for a blind box opening!!”
First, open the two Bronze Treasure Chests!
“Ding! [Skill: Elementary Traditional Chinese Medicine (Except for intractable diseases, you can try everything else!)]”
“Try it and die?” Zhao Dongchuan looked speechless!!!
This system description was too casual, even saying “try it”...
“Ding! [Skill: Hypnotism (Irresistible to those with weak willpower!)]”
This Hypnotism is quite interesting...hehe!
With only one Silver Treasure Chest left, Zhao Dongchuan took a deep breath and randomly clicked to open it!
“Ding! [Item: Teleportation Bracelet (Future high-tech product. Leave a coordinate, and you can arrive anytime!)]”
Awesome!!!
Zhao Dongchuan never expected to draw such a heaven-defying item in this world. He was truly about to enter cheat mode.
This thing could be a life-saving artifact. With it, if there was danger, he could just run away, and no one would find him!
Hehehe!!!
Zhao Dongchuan couldn't help but grin, letting out a laugh.
After finally calming down, he eagerly took out the Teleportation Bracelet from the system item bar.
Holding it in his hand, a surge of information automatically appeared in his mind.
It turned out that this bracelet could pinpoint spatial coordinates and teleport people to the saved coordinate points. Not only could it teleport people, but it could also teleport items. What was even more wonderful was that it could adjust its form according to its owner's will!
However, there were also restrictions: the maximum weight for each teleportation could not exceed 200kg, the distance could not exceed 3000 kilometers, and teleportation was limited to once a week. Multiple coordinates, however, could be set.
Even with these restrictions, this was undoubtedly a divine artifact for Zhao Dongchuan!
Zhao Dongchuan felt delighted and immediately wanted to reward himself with a hot pot meal!
Uh, wait, he still had two skills to learn. More skills never hurt. He should learn them quickly; the sooner he learned, the sooner he could use them!
He used his mind to click on the Elementary Traditional Chinese Medicine skill book in the system item bar. With a flash of light, specks of starlight merged into his mind, and a wave of basic knowledge and applications of Traditional Chinese Medicine was absorbed and digested.
“‘Treatise on Cold Damage Disorders,’ ‘The Yellow Emperor's Inner Canon,’ ‘The Divine Farmer's Materia Medica’...”
In total, no less than ten books related to Traditional Chinese Medicine were digested, absorbed, and imprinted in his mind, including some basic application cases.
With such a large amount of information absorbed, Zhao Dongchuan couldn't help but feel a bit lightheaded, but thankfully, he recovered quickly.
Then he clicked on the “Hypnotism” entry in his item bar again and selected “use.”
Another flash of light, and specks of starlight merged into his mind. The techniques and skills of Hypnotism were understood and absorbed.
Although the amount of knowledge was not as extensive as Traditional Chinese Medicine, the technical content was higher, involving the use and control of consciousness. Hypnosis could be performed through specific tools, and at advanced levels, even a glance could subtly influence others.
Zhao Dongchuan stretched his body and began practicing Wuqinxi. As his body moved, his mind, which had been a bit hazy from learning the skills, gradually cleared. After practicing a few times and working up a sweat, he went to take a hot shower.
Changing into clean clothes, Zhao Dongchuan grabbed his bag and headed out.
He had promised himself a hot pot meal as a reward, and he was a man of his word!
Zhao Dongchuan then leisurely strolled along, looking for a place to eat hot pot.
At this time, people were poor, and few could afford hot pot, so finding a restaurant was not easy.
Zhao Dongchuan, with his hands in his pockets, idly walked around like a “street loafer,” looking here and there. It was only because he was well-dressed and had a refined appearance, not looking like a bad person, that he hadn't been “reported” by the neighbors already.
It was almost the end of the year, and the weather was turning cold. There were fewer pedestrians on the road, and everyone wore thick cotton coats. A hot pot meal at this time would be perfect.
As he walked, he soon reached Jiefang Road. Not far away, Zhao Dongchuan spotted a state-run restaurant with a “Shabu-shabu Lamb” sign, and people were constantly going in.
Zhao Dongchuan tightened his clothes and walked towards the restaurant, pushing aside the thick cotton curtain on the main door and stepping inside.
As soon as he entered, he felt a warm burst of heat. Fortunately, he wasn't wearing glasses, or they would have fogged up thickly.
The room was filled with the unique aroma of hot pot, making Zhao Dongchuan's mouth water instantly.
He looked around and saw that there were quite a few people inside, with only a few empty tables. It seemed he had underestimated the wealthy people here.
Zhao Dongchuan found a table and sat down, ordering ten jin of shabu-shabu lamb, along with some vegetables like mushrooms and potato slices, and paid with money and food coupons.
The waitress wasn't surprised, assuming he was dining with several people and had just arrived first to order.
After a while, the waitress came over, opened the lid, put in the prepared charcoal, and poured the broth base into the pot... Soon after, she brought over plates of sliced lamb and vegetables.
Zhao Dongchuan eagerly dumped a plate of lamb into the pot. As the original Master Ma once said, this is how shabu-shabu lamb should be eaten, just dump it in with a clatter. Master Ma said that when he was young, he and Master Shuo would dine together, and they would each start with two jin.
Lamb cooks quickly when blanched and is easier to digest than pork.
Dipping it in the sauce, he picked up several slices of lamb with his chopsticks and put them into his mouth.
Mmm, mmm, good. This lamb was genuinely authentic lamb, with a hint of milky flavor, almost like lamb raised on a Xinjiang pasture.
Zhao Dongchuan occupied a table by himself, feasting heartily.
The people around him were astonished. Where did this “tycoon” come from, so extravagant!!!
Zhao Dongchuan paid no mind to the surprised glances of others. He was happy today, and he would eat happily. Forget ten jin of lamb, he could eat twenty jin if he wanted to; there was nothing he could do about being a martial artist.
He was eating with great relish when he heard a soft exclamation beside him!
He turned his head and saw a familiar face!
A man entered with a beautiful young girl. The man was none other than Gu Fengling, whom he hadn't seen in many days. He didn't recognize the woman...
