Since Chen Mu returned to Zhengjing, Chen Tianyou's life has been very happy. Perhaps because she had been waiting for someone for more than twenty years, or perhaps because she was afraid that Li Luo would come back suddenly, she used Chen Mu without restraint.
However, Chen Mu was not as happy as he imagined, especially since he would have to have frequent contact with women he couldn't afford for a long time. He wanted to avoid it, but he knew he couldn't. Because he still needs someone to help him manage Muyun Fund.
In this scene, the last person who cannot be seen through is Granny Zeng. At least, in front of the old man, the two of them need to pretend to be a harmonious couple. After inheriting the Muyun Fund, the two need to stay with the old man to familiarize themselves with all the assets.
Needless to say, Yunxiao Group, with the help of Granny Zeng, Lin Xiao has been in charge of it for three years, and she understands everything very well. As for other industries, in addition to reading written materials, they also need to conduct on-site visits to get familiar with each CEO and partner as an owner.
In the two days after becoming the owners of Muyun Fund, Chen and Mu spent the whole day reading materials in the office. Lin Yunxiao had already read through the small mountain of documents in half a day, but in the next day and a half, Granny Zeng asked her to help Chen Mu understand it.
Two days later, Granny Zeng decided to take Chen Mu and Chen Mu personally to inspect the major companies controlled by Muyun Fund.
"Okay, you have almost learned about the industries involved in Muyun Fund in the past two days. Talking on paper is not a problem. We will start on-site inspections tomorrow. Especially Xiao Yunxiao, you are very talented in business, and on-site inspections will help you control the overall situation. Help. As for Muzi, no matter whether you take care of things in the future or not, you cannot be ignorant of your own property."
"Mother-in-law, I have an appointment for the Mengli talent test tomorrow. Can we leave the day after tomorrow?"
"Dream power talent? Aren't you a dream interpreter?"
"Luckily, I awakened my dream power a few months ago."
"Together our dreams come true?"
"Um"
"Oh, it turns out I'm still a daydreamer."
Grandma Zeng was extremely surprised by this, and her old eyes flashed with excitement. In her whole life, this was the first time she saw her dream come true.
Lin Xiao had the opposite attitude towards this. She looked down upon both dream interpreters and dream interpreters, especially dream interpreters. In her opinion, they were completely accomplices of people who didn't want to work hard and indulged in their fantasies.
"Okay, very good. If your father knows, he will be very pleased."
"Mother-in-law, your time is so precious, so there is no need for such a trivial and trivial matter as dream power testing, right?"
"Hey, the Dream Master is the greatest force in protecting the safety of the empire and even the stability of the world. How can it be a trivial matter? Muzi, after dinner, you go back to rest first and take the exam tomorrow. By then, Yunxiao and I will be there to give it to you personally. encourage."
"Thank you, mother-in-law."
Chen Mu glanced at the woman proudly. Although some children competed childishly for favor, he felt happy if he could make the other person feel defeated.
Chen Mu made an appointment for the Royal Level 1 Dream Realization Master test. His own dream power has reached level two, but no one dares to vouch for the test results, because in addition to the strength level, the dream power test also includes psychological quality and state of mind cultivation.
The test method is very simple. The examinee enters the examination room, lies on a special jade bed, and his consciousness enters the dream world used for the test. If he can wake up within the specified time, he will pass the test.
This sounds simple, but it is not an easy task, because after entering the dream state, the candidate will lose all memory and do things based on his own nature. If you don't pay attention, you will lose yourself. Chen Tianzhu often dragged Chen Mu into dreams. The main reason was to exercise her will. Even so, she never passed the exam.
On the day of the test, Chen Tianzhu will of course go to the scene. She is not only a member of the Royal Dream Realizer Guild, but also a second-level Dream Realizer test observer, and has the obligation to invigilate the first- and second-level Dream Realization Master tests. In addition to her, there are six observers. Whether Chen Mu passes or not depends on everyone's decision.
In addition, relatives and friends can also come to the scene. As long as they don't cheat, it will be no problem even if they accompany you throughout the process. What's more, family members who don't have natural abilities are allowed to dream together.
Chen Tianyou became the examiner, obviously with the help of connections, and there was a sense of tacit approval of secret help. After all, Chen Xiong is one of the seven elders of the Royal Dream Master Guild, and everyone below him will give him face.
After entering the examination room, Chen Mu followed the instructions and lay down on the jade bed. A dream crystal core ball playing the scene hung on the head of the bed. The examiner Chen Tianzhu read out the exam rules, and after Chen Mu confirmed it, he entered the dream world under the watchful eyes of all observers.
Boom——
A heavy downpour fell from the dark night sky, and there was a thunderous sound in the deep sky.
In a strange world, Chen Mu suddenly woke up from the bed. He looked around and saw that the two bedrooms and two living rooms were scattered with debris, the doors and windows were tightly blocked, and the kitchen, living room, and bedroom were all filled with leftover food packaging bags.
"What is this place?"
Chen Mu stood up full of doubts. He only remembered that his name was Chen Mu and that he had no father or mother. He couldn't remember anything else.
Opening the curtains with a bang, Chen Mu saw at a glance that he lived in a high-rise building. When he got closer and looked down, he was frightened by the scene on the street. His face changed drastically: destroyed vehicles piled up, and dazzling blood stains were everywhere. It was clear that he had experienced A brutal and inhumane bloodbath. On the open road, shadows of people walked tremblingly from time to time. If you look carefully, everyone's clothes are torn and bloody.
Zombies!
In an instant, two words popped into Chen Mu's mind. I finally understood why the scene inside the house was like this. It turned out that it was the end of the world outside.
It's strange. Although he can't remember his background and origin, at this moment, Chen Mu has a lot of knowledge about zombies in his mind, such as: virus outbreak, human crisis, devouring evolution...
The zombie virus came from nowhere and swept the world in just a few days. The system built by human civilization for thousands of years fell apart overnight. Now, more than a month has passed since the outbreak of the virus, and only small groups of humans are left fighting on their own.
Chen Mu was one of these small, star-like groups. He was attending the graduation ceremony at the time. Unexpectedly, the scene suddenly became chaotic. He remembered who he seemed to have escaped with.
Unfortunately, looking at the signs of life in front of him, he knew that he was alone.
At the same time, there was an urgency in his heart, an eagerness to seek something. It's like the spiritual world is extremely empty, and there is an ethereal light flashing. I feel like a hundred claws are scratching my heart, and I desperately want to catch it.
This urgency made Chen Mu selectively ignore the dangers outside. There seemed to be a voice urging him: Go out and find the light.
For this illusory search, Chen Mu resolutely opened the door...
In the real world, the image in the dream crystal core ball above Chen Mu's head had just disappeared when three figures appeared at the entrance of the examination room. Chen Tianzhu glanced at it subconsciously when he heard the movement, then he looked up in shock and immediately looked up, with a smile on his face to greet them. Go up.
"What a coincidence, President Lin. I didn't expect to meet you in a place like this."
Chen Mu never mentioned the matter of obtaining the certificate from Lin Xiao to anyone. The only time it was presented was when the lawyer announced the will. Relevant departments of the empire were also present. They needed to prove that the requirements of the will were fulfilled.
Mother-in-law Zeng could also see that the two of them seemed to be incompatible with each other, but she didn't mind at all. Based on the experience of people who had been there, she was very sure that people of Chen Mu and Lin Yunxiao's age and conditions would definitely fall in love over time.
"Haha, let's see how the Muzi test goes."
Before Lin Yunxiao could answer, Granny Zeng spoke first. She knew Chen Tianzhu and met Chen Mu almost every time she went to see him.
"Yeah, Grandma Zeng is here too."
Chen Tianzhu was not pretending, she really just saw Granny Zeng. The main thing is that Lin Xiao is too eye-catching.
"I won't disturb you, will I?"
"No way. If you don't think you can see carefully from the outside, you can come in and sit down. Especially the Yunxiao brothers and sisters, we can even dream together."
"Is there such a humane test? We are here to accompany Muzi today. In that case, please ask God to be accommodating."
"no problem."
Lin Xiao looked stunned. Are these two people making decisions for her like this? Ever since she was a child, she had never accepted anything that disrespected her own opinions.
"Don't bother Chen Mengshi. I have something to do later, so I'll just take a look and leave."
"You've already come. It's a pity to miss such a good opportunity. Don't worry, soon, the dream time will be thousands of times longer than the real world, and it won't delay your business."
Chen Tianzhu enthusiastically pulled Lin Yunxiao, and Lin Yunxiao frowned unconsciously. Perhaps it was due to her natural distrust of human nature, or perhaps she was used to being a CEO. She was very disgusted with physical contact, even with a beauty like Chen Tianzhu.
However, she still has some patience. Shaking Chen Tianzhu away calmly, Lin Yunxiao questioned: "The time is so short, even if we speed up thousands of times, what can we do?"
"Have you never dreamed? Dreams are very magical. Let me show you what they are like."
"Xiao Yunxiao, it's a good sign that husband and wife have the same dream. You and..."
"let me try."
Afraid that Granny Zeng would expose something, Lin Yunxiao quickly interrupted and took off the jade bracelet from her wrist with a wary expression. It was a high-end dreamshade, and Chen Tianyou couldn't pull her into sleep even while wearing it.
"Then I wish you a sweet dream."
Chen Tianzhuxin smiled and helped Lin Xiao lie down. Before the scene of the dream core ball completely disappeared, she quietly changed the tester's settings.
boom--
In the dream world, it was another evening with thunderstorms.
In the ruined city, beside the messy streets, in the supermarket on the ground floor of a certain building, scattered zombies roamed around with low roars. There was a faint rustling sound next to the dim shelves.
It was Chen Mu rummaging for food.
Having been wandering in this once prosperous city for half a month, Chen Mu had a rough idea of the situation here. He was still searching everywhere, encountering several small human groups trying to survive, but he had no clue what he was looking for. On the contrary, he has a unique perspective on zombies.
For example: Zombies are also divided into teams, and the number is uncertain. The leader with a larger number of teams will be stronger and more intelligent.
For example: This virus outbreak targets everyone indiscriminately, and no one is spared. Even if you are not bitten by a zombie, you may still be infected by viruses in the air.
For example: The end of the world before us is also an opportunity for human evolution. Because as far as he knew, many people who survived the infection had abilities that were different from ordinary people, even supernatural powers.
Including himself, he also has incredible superpowers, that is: mind control!
