Chapter 24: Collecting Task Rewards

  A new week begins, seeking all kinds of support. The unfortunate author has not appeared on any charts since uploading and is begging for a chance, will warm the bed!

  Others are just starting to work and are basically still in a state of warmth and fullness. If Yang Qing invites them to a star-rated hotel, even if he doesn't mean to show off, it will make others feel somewhat uncomfortable.

  When Yang Qing drove to the entrance of Dechang Restaurant, Guan Shaoyuan and others had not arrived yet. After finding a place to park the car, Yang Qing went into the restaurant first and booked a small private room.

  After more than ten minutes, Yang Qing's phone rang. As soon as he picked it up, the voice of Lao San Gu Yannian came from the receiver.

  "Fourth brother, we've already arrived at the entrance of the restaurant, where are you?"

  "I've already booked a private room, you guys wait for a moment, I'll go down and pick you up."

  Yang Qing walked out of the restaurant door and saw Gu Yanian, Ruan Yang and Guan Shaoyuan chatting at the entrance.

  "Come on, let's hurry up and go!" Yang Qing called out to them, then took the lead in walking into the restaurant.

  Yang Qing and his group had just sat down in the private room when a waiter came in to ask what dishes they wanted.

  Yang Qing flipped through the menu and ordered seven hot dishes: crispy pork, sweet and sour carp, sauce ribs, braised pork belly, spicy chicken, celery stir-fried meat, and boiled meat slices. Then he also ordered a few cold dishes, including old vinegar peanuts and mixed pig face.

  "Lao Si, what are we drinking tonight? Beer or baijiu?" asked Ruan Yang, who was sitting beside him.

  Yang Qing was about to say drink beer, but suddenly remembered that he drove over tonight and couldn't drink, or else he would be caught later, which would be six months.

  "I have something on today and can't drink, otherwise how about you three having a drink?" Yang Qing asked tentatively.

  "Lao Si, you're not being genuine! You called us over to drink together, and now you're telling us you won't drink? No way, absolutely not!"

  Yang Qing let out a wry smile, he knew the three of them would definitely disagree. He hadn't associated driving with drinking at all before, and only thought of it now.

  It would be great if there was something in the package that could sober him up, so he could drink freely with his brothers. Yang Qing thought to himself.

  "Ding, temporary task triggered."

  "Temporary Task: Find an item from existing objects that can sober up. Task Reward: Upgrade of Exploration Skill. Failure Penalty: None."

  Could it be that there's something in the inventory that can sober him up? Yang Qing immediately started rummaging through his inventory.

  Huichundan? This is used to treat injuries. Huanyuandan? This is used to restore the yuan force. Huishendan? This is used to restore spiritual power, these three kinds of medicine should not be able to sober up from drinking.

  So there are only six kinds of seals left. Yang Qing's eyes quickly fell on the Clear Spirit Seal, and among these things, only this thing is most likely to sober up.

  Yang Qing thought to himself, "Wanting to try if the Clear Spirit Symbol has any effect, I can only get drunk with them for now."

  "Lao Si, if you don't drink tonight, then we won't drink either. It's no fun at all!" Gu Yanian urged Yang Qing again from the side.

  "Lao San, you've said it like that, how can I refuse? Waiter, bring us a crate of beer first."

  Yang Qing had already thought it through in his mind. If the Clear Spirit Symbol didn't work, he would leave the car here tonight and take a taxi back.

  Not long after the waiter left, dishes started coming out one after another and soon occupied most of the round table.

  "Fourth brother, none of the dishes you ordered today are meatless, you really can't be happy without meat!"

  "Alright! Humans have spent so many years, finally climbed to the top of the food chain, if because of some brain-dead words return to the herbivorous animal level, that's really too ridiculous."

  Yang Qing stuffed a piece of meat into his mouth and said disdainfully.

  As the beer went down, the atmosphere at the table became more and more lively. The four of them chatted about their experiences over the past period of time, talking nonsense from all directions.

  Yang Qing also knew about the work of the three, Lao San Gu Yanian became a pharmaceutical representative, Xiao Liu Ruan Yang entered the workshop of a pharmaceutical factory, and as for Class Monitor Guan Shaoyuan, he is now working as cheap labor in the university student service center, preparing to go out and find a job.

  At the dinner table, the three of them also asked about Yang Qing's current work. Yang Qing waved his hand and said in a casual tone: "My current job is mainly to engage in some feudal superstitions, selling talismans and things like that."

  "My god, no way! Eldest Fourth Brother, you can't have fallen so low as to become a gangster, right?"

  Ruan Yang let out a loud cry, his face filled with an expression of disbelief, and even Gu Yanian and Guan Shaoyuan were looking at Yang Qing in surprise.

  "Don't be so surprised, it's all about making a living, our profession is so messed up, of course we have to find ways to survive."

  When Yang Qing said this, the other three people stopped talking for a while and drank heavily.

  They fully understood that what Yang Qing said was right, if they wanted to find a job related to their major, they would either become a pharmaceutical representative or work in the workshop of a pharmaceutical factory; otherwise, they could only do whatever job they found.

  They drank for four or five hours, and Yang Qing asked the waiter to help him carry the three people who were drunk and unconscious into a nearby hotel room. After opening the door, he threw them inside.

  After walking out of the hotel, Yang Qing also felt a slight drunkenness as he was blown by the night wind.

  Yang Qing took out a Clear Mind Talisman from his inventory and stuck it to his forehead. The talisman immediately emitted a burst of light, and after a while, he felt completely refreshed and awake.

  Although his body had been digitized, it didn't mean that Yang Qing could be immune to all negative states. If that were the case, then it wouldn't be digitization, but immortality instead.

  The Qing Shen Fu not only helped Yang Qing sober up, but also drove away the wine smell on his body. Now, even if someone sniffed him closely, they wouldn't be able to smell a hint of alcohol.

  "Off you go, get a good night's sleep at home!"

  Yang Qing drove into the traffic flow and headed in the direction of Fu Qiankun.

  After returning home, Yang Qing cleaned up the garage again, cleared out a space and drove his beloved car in.

  After washing up, Yang Qing didn't even turn on the computer and lay down on the bed in a hurry to receive the task rewards for the two temporary tasks.

  At that time, when the task was completed, Yang Qing was about to directly receive the reward, but the system prompted that after receiving the reward, he would fall asleep, and Yang Qing dragged it until now.

  After opening the taskbar, Yang Qing found the receive button under two temporary tasks. With a thought, both buttons were clicked, and he soon felt a wave of drowsiness wash over him, quickly falling into a deep sleep.

  Just as Yang Qing fell asleep, his body began to undergo earth-shattering changes, with countless images and texts constantly changing and then entering his mind.

  His surroundings were also as if a whirlwind had blown by, making everything topsy-turvy.
