The Beginning of the World: Going to the Countryside as an Educated Youth

Zhao Dongchuan quickly calmed down, wiped his face, and rubbed it hard as if he wanted to "turn over a new leaf."

After washing his face, Zhao Dongchuan felt a little more energetic. He followed the picture in his mind and walked towards the field that the team was responsible for. A group of people had already gathered there and were distributing farm tools.

The leader was a young man in his twenties, wearing ragged clothes full of patches. He looked very similar to Sun Shaoping, but more mature and steady. He had been working for many years, so he was very strong and had a tanned face. It was obvious that he was a good farm worker.

"This is Sun Shaoan, Sun Shaoping's brother, the leader of the village's production team," Zhao Dongchuan thought secretly in his heart.

"Dongchuan, you're here. Is everything okay?" Sun Shaoan asked with concern.

"Brother Shaoan, it's okay. I fell and fainted for a while, but I'm much better now," Zhao Dongchuan replied.

"It's OK if you don't have to do anything. I will lead you to work today. You must learn well and don't dare to be lazy again. Don't go around like my wandering brother-in-law Wang Manyin. You won't be able to find a wife if you do that."

Sun Shaoan smiled as he spoke, and it was hard to tell whether it was a bitter smile or a happy one, but the surrounding villagers burst into laughter. It seemed that Zhao Dongchuan's reputation as a lazy and gluttonous person had spread.

Next, Zhao Dongchuan followed Sun Shaoan to learn how to do farm work. Shaoan was very smart in doing farm work. He explained to Zhao Dongchuan in detail where to pay more attention and where to apply fertilizer along the way.

Zhao Dongchuan is not the lazy guy he used to be. He adjusted his mentality, learned with an open mind, and started to work well after a while. This made the people who were ready to laugh at him wonder, why did the sun rise from the west today?

Has this young man from the city changed his personality? This is really strange. Has he really hurt his head?

Sun Shaoan was also a little surprised. He had no expectations, but the result was unexpectedly good. Although he was still a little nervous, his attitude had completely changed. If he continued like this, the team would have a good laborer.

Shaoan watched Zhao Dongchuan finish the work he was responsible for without saying a word, and then let him do it alone. Only after Zhao Dongchuan finally finished the work, panting, did he pat Zhao Dongchuan on the shoulder and let him rest.

Zhao Dongchuan was sweating from exhaustion at this time, and he had no strength left in his body. He really tried his best. He had never done farm work so seriously in his two lives, and he was really exhausted.

At this time, everyone had almost finished their work. They packed up their farm tools and started to walk back. No one looked at him anymore. Zhao Dongchuan clearly felt that everyone had more recognition of him. After all, the rural people were still very simple at this time, and it was good for them to work hard.

After finishing his farm work, Zhao Dongchuan packed up his farm tools and was about to go home to cook something to eat when he heard someone shout, "The team is cooking today, so you don't have to go home to eat!"

Later, Zhao Dongchuan learned that the commune was unable to make ends meet due to the communal dining system, and it had been gradually discontinued a long time ago, with only a few meals being served occasionally to deal with inspections.

Afterwards, Sun Shaoan and Zhao Dongchuan lined up with their own bowls to get their meals, which consisted of black flour steamed buns, radishes and potatoes.

Zhao Dongchuan found today's meal particularly delicious and ate very quickly. The hunger in his stomach was soon filled by the feeling of fullness.

Zhao Dongchuan squatted in the corner, eating his meal, watching the farmers and village women not far away telling dirty jokes while eating and laughing from time to time. Suddenly, he felt a different feeling spreading in his heart. It was a feeling of fulfillment, the happiness and satisfaction that came from holding a bowl and eating a meal after working hard.

At this moment, a clear female voice suddenly sounded in my mind.

"Ding, congratulations to the host, you have realized the true meaning of life, and activated the system."

"Ding, the system is in the process of soul binding..."

“ding，绑定进度：1%…30%…50%…80%…100%，绑定成功”

"Ding, the system product must be excellent. All the rights of interpretation belong to this system. The system function is being optimized and adapted. It is expected to be completed in 72 hours. Please stay tuned."

Zhao Dongchuan listened in bewilderment, feeling that it was extremely unreal. Was this the welfare of a time traveler? The standard configuration of a protagonist? God will not let down a time traveler.

The "Golden Finger" has finally arrived. I tried for a long time but there was no response. I thought I would have to go into the difficult mode, but I didn't expect a sudden turn of events and a bright future.

Zhao Dongchuan was so overjoyed that he could no longer conceal the silly smile on his face.

"Hey hey hey" (——?)

I didn't even have time to eat.

Zhao Dongchuan squatted in the corner quietly, with a silly smile on his face. No one around him paid attention to him, as they were all eating their own food. Occasionally, he would look up at a few men in the village teasing women and wives with dirty jokes, and let out a burst of inexplicable laughter.

Zhao Dongchuan quickly ate the steamed bun and vegetable soup, thinking that he would finish eating quickly and go back to his kiln to study the correct use of this system. After saying hello to the team leader Sun Shaoan and a few familiar team members, Zhao Dongchuan went back quickly, eager to go home.

Zhao Dongchuan returned to his cave, closed the door, and pulled the bolt. He sat on the earthen kang, crossed his legs, closed his eyes, and silently called out "system" in his heart.

An interface slowly emerged in my mind. The interface is currently mostly gray, with a large prompt: System adaptation in progress, and a progress bar that is moving slowly.

On the left is the task bar, on the right is the reward bar, in the middle is a big turntable, and below it is a lottery button.

There were many grids on the big turntable, and the text and pictures were all gray and unclear. There was a system description in the upper right corner. Zhao Dongchuan tried to use his mind as a mouse to click on the system description, just like using a computer, and it really worked.

Click to open the system description, and several introductory instructions will appear.

"Welcome to the Passerby A System of the Universe Traveling Through Time"

"Note 1: This system will adapt to the original rules of the host's world"

"Note 2: This system will randomly release tasks. After completing the tasks, the host will have a chance to win a prize."

"Note 3: The prizes for the lucky draw are not limited to items, skills, magic weapons, techniques, world cards, etc."

Note: All rights of interpretation belong to this system. This system only serves as an auxiliary tool for the host, and all consequences are borne by the host himself.

Looking at the last note, Zhao Dongchuan was speechless. He felt that there was a pitfall, but he didn't know where exactly. For now, he could only take one step at a time. After all, it is better to have a system than no system. Even if the functions are not as powerful as imagined, and he has to rely on himself in the end, it is still very helpful in the early stages of development.

Zhao Dongchuan quickly adjusted his mentality and calmed down.

At the same time, Zhao Dongchuan had a vague guess about this "adaptation". Could it be that this was actually the system invading this world or opening an energy channel to achieve the purpose of intervening in another world?

As a young man of the 21st century, he has some opinions of his own about this extraordinary phenomenon, but Zhao Dongchuan is not sure about the specific principles at the moment and can only wait patiently.
