Chapter 220 Vicious Thoughts
Major version update?
Sun Qier subconsciously stopped. Although he was not an old Internet user, he was well aware that every major version update of the Internet was a milestone leap.
This is a fact recognized by the world.
However, now is not the time to check for version updates, so he logged out of the network and continued on his way.
Along the way, he walked through every intersection without stopping and looked very familiar with the road.
In fact, he had already planned a retreat before deciding to take action.
When passing by a mountain spring, he was even in the mood to stop, take a bath and change into fresh clothes.
Of course, although he said it was refreshing, in fact, as a beggar, he had not worn such decent clothes for a long time, so he always felt awkward.
The sun rises in the east, and its path is bright.
At lightning speed, Sun Qier finally arrived at his destination - a small and unknown county called Bian County.
With the support of magic power, he seemed like a normal person and entered the city familiarly.
He first ate a bowl of scallion noodles at the entrance of the alley, and then turned into a secluded courtyard. The moment he closed the door, an indescribable sense of comfort surged from his heart.
He rubbed his bloated belly, sat down on the recliner in the yard, twisted his body, found a comfortable position, and then turned on the network login tool.
In an instant, the familiar Internet interface appeared.
With a quick glance, he immediately discovered the new feature "Internet Healthcare".
"Medical treatment?"
Sun Qier muttered something and clicked it casually. A pop-up window appeared, and there was a voice prompt in his ear.
[Your personal doctor is online. Do you want to scan your whole body and have a physical examination? ]
If you give it to others, would you still worry about whether scanning your entire body will leak your privacy?
But as for Sun Qier, he nodded "yes" without even thinking about it.
【Please wait, do not log out of the network during this period. 】
As the prompt sounded, the page suddenly showed an image of Sun Qier's body. In the picture, Sun Qier was wearing simple shorts, and one could clearly see his legs as slender as bean sprouts.
[Scan completed, please receive the health checkup form, do you want to proceed with one-click treatment? ]
Following the voice prompt, not only did Sun Qier's legs highlight as a reminder, but a pop-up window also popped up next to him, displaying data text.
Sun Qier was so stunned that he trembled all over.
Can the paralysis that has plagued him for half his life be cured?
Even though he knew that every major version update of the Internet was a leap forward, he was still shocked beyond belief.
He carefully looked over the health checkup form, which listed his physical data in detail. To be honest, he couldn't understand most of it. He could only understand the word "normal" at the end and the "abnormal" of the examination of his legs.
"call……"
After a long time, he took a deep breath and clicked "One-click Treatment".
[Your points are insufficient and treatment is temporarily unavailable. Please transfer enough points before trying one-click treatment. ]
Sun Qier was dumbfounded.
Only then did I notice that the points required to reshape the legs were enormous.
Although he logged in and signed in every day, the points he earned were not enough to pay for his treatment.
In other words, as a beggar, he was already penniless, and the money he begged for was often looted by local gangs. How could he have any money left?
"No wonder those gangs are desperately trying to extort money. It's true that a penny can make a hero fall!"
Sun Qier laughed at himself. He was not disgusted by the fact that Internet medical services require points. He even thought it was very reasonable.
Taking money from others and helping them get rid of their misfortunes is a habit of thinking that he has long developed in the secret world of the Internet!
Although this amount of points seems huge at the moment, it is actually not difficult for him to obtain it.
Nowadays, the points and merits in the secret realm of the Internet have long become a rigid demand. To a certain extent, they are even linked to real currency, and there is an endless stream of requests for purchase.
Therefore, this huge amount of points is just a few main tasks for him, and the cost is far less than the method of regenerating severed limbs that he has found.
From the beginning to the end, Sun Qier never doubted whether Internet medical care had the ability to cure his paralysis.
How to cure his paralysis!
"Ding dong!"
Beet sent a message: "How do you feel?"
Sun Qier knew that this was a question about his feelings about exchanging the Dao fragments.
“It’s such a pleasure!”
Sun Qier replied, at that moment, a ray of sunlight passed through the mist like a silver thread, passed over the high wall, and gently fell in the quiet courtyard, sweeping away the haze in the courtyard.
Because his great revenge was achieved, he suddenly fell into confusion, but he quickly found the motivation to keep fighting - to make money and treat his leg!
He thought for a moment and decided to try the main storyline dungeon that was just released yesterday - Fantasy Rebirth: Cybernetic Interconnection.
According to the mission description, any player can create a virtual phantom in the sky over the city.
Once the creation is successful, any Internet user, after logging into the Internet, can view it through the light screen and have the right to like or dislike it.
The more likes, the bigger the phantom will be, and the creator will also receive corresponding points as rewards.
This means that anyone can become rich overnight!
Sun Qier thought about it, then logged into the interconnected secret realm to accept the task, and started editing it in the "Fantasy Editor".
This process is neither difficult nor easy.
The creation process is similar to the Buddhist visualization method.
Through long-term visualization, the reading of the fantasy editor is stimulated.
Sun Qier already had a draft in mind, so he quickly edited the illusion through visualization.
After some modification, upload it immediately.
Looking at the prompt that it was "under review", Sun Qier felt like taking on the task of reviewer.
The so-called auditor is one of the tasks in the secret realm of the Internet.
The job involves cross-checking Internet content, and the pay is very good.
Sun Qier has done it before. Not to mention how rigorous the training was, the main thing was that the work content was too boring.
Apart from occasionally brushing, the rest of the time, he would rather go out and kill than be an auditor.
However, this does not prevent the auditor from being angry.
Except for some people who like to have fun;
The most important thing is that the auditor's merits are settled and feedback is provided in a timely manner.
Reviewing one item will increase 0.01 merit.
Many players regard it as a task to make up for the lack of merit.
"Forget it, let's just wait. I don't know if there are many players in this city."
Sun Qier muttered that he wanted to go to other cities to create, but then he thought that running away would be too troublesome, and the benefits were also full of uncertainty, so he simply threw the idea behind him, logged into the Internet secret realm, and went to complete the task.
……
While Sun Qier was still working hard to earn treatment points, some people had already enjoyed the convenience of Internet medical care.
……
Yong County, Solo Village.
As the fiery red sun gradually sank into the horizon, the sunlight was no longer dazzling, but became softer and warmer, pouring down like molten gold, dyeing the world with a light orange-red, like a gorgeous painting spread across the sky.
In the scroll, the old man is carrying a hoe, walking slowly back home along the ridges and ditches.
That seemingly leisurely movement is actually the crouching of old age.
After a few years, his back became more hunched, and when he walked, he looked like a crooked duck.
The farmlands behind him that were once clearly divided are now indistinguishable from each other.
Since the emergence of online banking, more and more villagers have stopped farming and some have sold their land or rented it out. Now only the old man who once suffered from famine is still holding on.
When I got home, my wife had already cooked dinner.
A bowl of porridge and a plate of black pickles.
To be honest, just by relying on the points exchanged from major networks, Lao Caizi has already solved the basic food and drink problems.
However, his life remained as frugal as ever.
In his opinion, as long as he could fill his stomach, he didn't care whether it was fine grain or coarse grain. After dinner, he burned incense and offered sacrifices to the whitened red paper on the wall as usual. The next second, the familiar Internet interface appeared.
Two years ago, the head of the village went into the village beating drums and gongs, spreading the word that the Internet was an evil network and that no one was allowed to log in. Not only were violators severely punished, but their Internet login tools were also confiscated.
However, these people don’t know that if they want to log into the Internet, why do they need an Internet login tool?
Not even a spell is needed.
As long as you worship sincerely, the Internet will come.
The old man, who had long been accustomed to the Internet, would not listen to the nonsense of the head of the village. Naturally, he would worship on his own at night.
Thanks to the earlier "Enlightenment Jade Slips" incident, the old man acquired the ability to read and write while worshiping at the land temple.
However, maybe it’s because I’m old and my ability to accept things is too poor.
To this day, he rarely uses the various functions of the Internet.
The most visited app every day is Internet video.
Just looking at the aunties and young sisters shaking their buttocks makes me feel satisfied.
Today, as usual, after burning incense and logging on to the Internet, he leaned on the head of the bed, slightly closed his eyes, as if he was half asleep.
The old woman was also lying beside him, dozing off with her eyes closed.
This moment is almost the most comfortable and leisure time of their day. Even the old woman who seems to be dozing off is actually watching the long video and will stop what she is doing from time to time.
Occasionally when I see some videos of "daughters-in-law bullying mothers-in-law", I can't help but curse a few words.
“Can ordinary people also achieve longevity?”
Suddenly, a video title jumped into the old man's sight.
He clicked on it almost without thinking.
In fact, more than half of the videos he watches are health-related.
Such videos as "Five minutes in the morning, full of energy for the whole day! Chinese medicine's Five Animal Exercises revealed", "Health tips for four seasons: nourish the liver in spring, nourish the heart in summer, moisten the lungs in autumn, and nourish the kidneys in winter" ... and so on.
Most old people read it and then forget it.
He would take very few of them as his guiding principles and often follow them. It is hard to say whether they are effective or not, but he thinks they are very good anyway.
However, today's video made him full of surprise.
However, this video was actually an introduction to Internet medical care.
The video lists various examples in detail, such as a dying old man who was brought back to life with just one click of treatment; a blind patient who suddenly gained sight... and so on.
The old man's heart was moved by what he saw.
After a long time, he exited the video and saw the Internet medical section on the Internet homepage.
Then I clicked in.
After a series of step-by-step operations, with the pressing of a key, an indescribable force suddenly descended from the sky.
The old man felt as if he was soaked in warm water and felt extremely comfortable all over.
As this force gradually dissipated.
The world suddenly became "noisy".
Outside the house, frogs were croaking and cicadas were chirping; inside the house, the old woman's breathing was clearly audible. Looking up, in the dim night, he could even see the outline of the old woman's face.
He subconsciously held onto the edge of the bed and sat up.
In the past, he had to use his arms to support himself with great effort, but today it was almost effortless, which made him sit still.
"Old lady...old lady..."
"What's wrong?"
"I'm fine."
"What's better?"
"I'm feeling better!"
The old man got out of bed excitedly, twisted his waist and raised his legs. The amplitude of his movements was so large that the old woman asked repeatedly: "What are you doing? Aren't you afraid of hurting your waist?"
"Look, I'm fine. I'm fine now."
The old man repeated excitedly.
The two of them talked nonsense for a long time before they finally figured out what had happened.
The old woman was hesitant, but she followed the old man's instructions and clicked on Internet medical care.
Not long after, the old woman also got out of bed excitedly, jumping up and down, and even couldn't help kneeling in front of the faded red paper, kowtowing and burning incense.
The next morning, the old man left the house feeling refreshed.
The villagers looked suspicious at his brisk footsteps.
"Old man, what good news is this?"
"Nothing happy?"
"Really? I feel like you're a little different today."
"Hey, what's the difference?"
The old man responded with a smile and went to the field carrying his hoe, which made the idle men and women in the village more suspicious.
When they saw the old woman carrying a huge wooden barrel to the well at the entrance of the village to wash clothes, everyone suddenly realized what was wrong.
"Auntie, what kind of tonic did you take? How can you carry such a big barrel just like that?"
"Oh, I'm not so lucky as to take any tonic medicine. This was all cured by the Internet." The old woman couldn't help but say.
Even though those officials don’t allow the internet for worship, the villagers can still use it.
In other words, in a small and closed mountain village, who would care about the laws and rules of immortals?
“The Internet cures diseases?”
"It's not..."
The old woman became excited and started chattering along with a group of middle-aged women. When she got excited, she even started dancing.
The village can’t hide the truth!
Before long, Internet medical care spread throughout the village.
I don’t know how many people’s curiosity this has aroused.
There is a severe shortage of medicine in the countryside, not to mention doctors. It can be said that every household has to deal with minor illnesses and rely on folk remedies for major illnesses.
Now that we know that the Internet can cure diseases, countless people are surprised and try it overnight.
I didn't expect that it would have been better if I hadn't tried it. But after trying it, I found that there was no way to treat it with one click.
The reason is simple: not enough points.
It should be noted that before the ban from the Immortal Court came down, all the points were exchanged for food.
Once the ban came down, the villagers were basically cut off from Internet access thanks to the Internet access tools distributed by the major sects.
Only some teenagers with strong receptive abilities or strong curiosity are still logging in secretly.
"Hey, did you get the treatment? Why did I say I don't have enough points?"
"Me too!"
"Where did you get the points, old man?"
"He wouldn't...be using the Internet all the time, would he?"
"Oh, I can't believe they can do such a thing."
"He is an outsider. Others have sold their land, but he won't. Look at him carrying a hoe all day long. What's he doing?"
"That's right. An old man who refuses to die is a thief. I think these two are definitely not good people."
What is worrying is not the lack of wealth but the inequality. Amid whispers, malicious thoughts begin to brew.
