Staring at the face in the bathroom mirror, which had just shed its skin, Qin Feng was slightly taken aback.
However, what shocked him was not the speed of the skin's recovery, but the clarity of the mirror in the bathroom.
"This is Earth's glass mirror? It's so clear!" Qin Feng bared his teeth and made a funny face at the mirror.
Clearly, he had almost turned into charcoal due to the intense electric current, but after just a few hours, his skin had returned to a rosy and fair complexion, even with a faint luster.
"How do I feel like I'm turning into a white-faced person?" He playfully tugged at his cheeks, feeling a childlike innocence.
If the acquaintances of a cultivator saw Qin Feng at this moment, they would probably think he looked like he had seen a ghost.
While looking at himself in the mirror, Qin Feng began to sort through the memories of this body.
His predecessor was also named Qin Feng, a third-year student of clinical medicine at Xiangnan San Ya Medical University. His family seemed very ordinary; his father, Qin Qianzui, ran an ordinary clinic in their hometown. The income was modest, but they lived a comfortable life.
There were only two people in the family. Since Qin Feng could remember, he had never heard his mother's name.
When he was young, every time Qin Feng asked his father why he didn't have a mother, Qin Qianzui would look gloomy and angry but say nothing.
As he grew older and became more sensible, Qin Feng no longer asked his father about his mother.
"How strange, who else is named Qin Qianzui? My predecessor's father seems to have secrets!" Qin Feng muttered, though he had inherited the body and memories, he did not inherit the predecessor's emotions. It was hard for him, a great cultivator, to call an ordinary person his father.
However, since he had been reborn due to this body, he owed this body a great cause and effect, and naturally had to accept this body's identity.
As a cultivator, if one owes a cause and effect and does not repay it, they will surely suffer the consequences!
"Fine! I'll owe you this favor. From now on, you are me, and I am you. I, Qin Feng, will also try to recognize your father and take on all your grudges and favors..." Qin Feng smiled bitterly and muttered.
It seemed there was a higher will!
As soon as Qin Feng said this, he felt his mind become much clearer.
Even the compatibility between his soul and body increased. More memory fragments and information from his predecessor exploded in his consciousness, allowing Qin Feng to receive them.
At this moment, the souls of Qin Feng from the two worlds perfectly merged.
Qin Feng was really lucky!
If the two souls had not perfectly merged at the initial stage, it would have been very detrimental to his future cultivation, and he would have certainly developed a super heart demon.
"I'll send you away, a thousand miles away..."
Suddenly, a beautiful ringtone sounded, instantly snapping Qin Feng out of his daze.
Leaving the bathroom, he curiously picked up the phone, which had a function similar to the [communication stone] in the cultivation world. Qin Feng was truly amazed by the ingenuity of Earth's people.
This so-called phone was definitely not as powerful as the [communication stone] in the cultivation world, as the communication stone could transmit sound, contact, and even transmit images across star systems. The phone's signal, however, could not leave Earth, which was far inferior to the communication stone. However, the phone had many functions and could be used by any ordinary person, which was far superior to the [communication stone] in the cultivation world.
After all, the communication stone was also a magical tool, with a very low普及率. Generally, only cultivation experts could communicate across star systems.
The phone, which had been charging on the table last night, had miraculously survived the intense electric current.
"Really a great thing!" He muttered and answered the call, "Hello, who is this?"
A hurried voice immediately came from the other end of the line: "Qin Feng, this is Coach Chen Xiaozhi. Where are you now? The exam is about to start, and you haven't arrived at the driving test center yet?"
Exam?
Qin Feng was dazed for a moment before he remembered that he was currently taking the third subject of his driving test.
Indeed, to get the driver's license, Qin Feng had spent the entire summer, even getting sunburned. To arrive at the test site early, he had stayed in a dormitory near the test site last night.
But last night, someone had tried to kill him.
Yes!
It was definitely an assassination!
Qin Feng, who had seen much in the cultivation world, was very sure and certain about this.
"Hmph, since the assassination failed, we will surely meet again. Then, I'll see who you really are..." Qin Feng muttered coldly, feeling the urgency from Coach Chen Xiaozhi, he immediately said, "Coach, I'm at the driving school dormitory and will head to the test center right away..."
"Then hurry up, don't be late..." Coach Chen Xiaozhi urged.
Qin Feng responded and looked at his naked body, and the part that was swinging loosely, feeling a bit stunned.
It seemed that the intense electric current had burned most of his clothes, leaving him almost completely naked.
"Damn, I almost had to run naked. Fortunately, there seems to be a set of clean clothes on the balcony..."
He quickly collected the clothes he had hung out to dry on the balcony after showering last night, put them on, and felt extreme resentment towards the assassin from last night.
If the person dared to show up again, he would definitely beat them so badly that even their mother wouldn't recognize them, and he would directly cause their brain death...
After checking out and getting back his 100 yuan deposit, Qin Feng looked happy.
It seemed that this 100 yuan was now all he had.
Because all the money he had on him had been destroyed.
...
It was August, and the heat of the dog days had already set in. Even at 8 a.m., the temperature outside was scorching.
Despite the heat, people's enthusiasm for learning to drive was undiminished.
At the driving school, many people were willing to get sunburned and were vying to practice driving.
Leaving the driving school, Qin Feng followed the route he remembered and headed directly to the first driving test center in Wangcheng District.
Since the test center was not far away, Qin Feng ran there directly.
However, after just a few dozen steps, Qin Feng was already panting and feeling very uncomfortable, as if a huge stone was pressing on his heart.
"Damn, although I successfully condensed my life magnetic core and healed all internal injuries, my body is now depleted due to the overuse of healing. It seems I need to go to the pharmacy and find some good herbs to replenish myself..." Qin Feng frowned and thought for a moment, making a decision.
Although the cultivation world and Earth's medicines should have significant differences, and Qin Feng knew nothing about traditional Chinese medicine, he could still identify the authenticity and toxicity of herbs.
All things in the world, the more nourishing they are, the more unique their magnetic field. Even the magnetic waves they emit have distinct characteristics.
As a magnetic field cultivator, he had a natural advantage in understanding the properties of herbs. He could easily configure top-notch prescriptions by analyzing the magnetic waves of the herbs.
...
Qin Feng ran while thinking.
As he passed a crossroads, suddenly, a heavy truck made a sharp turn and directly collided with a city SUV coming from the other direction.
"Screech—"
A sharp, screeching sound of brakes echoed as the truck skidded for several dozen meters on the asphalt road before crashing into the SUV.
"Boom..."
The small SUV was directly thrown into the air, flipping over two or three times before being stopped by a tree on the side of the road.
The road was littered with glass shards, and there was blood splattered everywhere.
"Not... not good! There's been a car accident..."
"God, it's so terrible... That Porsche flipped several times in the air..."
"Quick! Save the people! I smell gasoline, the Cayenne's fuel tank might be broken. If we don't rescue them, the car might explode..."
...
On the road, many pedestrians screamed in fear.
Some people fearfully moved away from the vehicles, while others instinctively rushed towards the SUV to save the people.
Qin Feng witnessed the horrific scene before him, and his pupils constricted.
