Dream Up Skills, and My Country and I Win Big

Zhuang Meng was never favored by fate as a child. Misfortune clung to her, but at the age of twenty-six, she bonded with a "Dream System" capable of overturning destiny. As long as she dreams, she can draw skills, and even trigger hidden rewards. A gloomy boy with paralyzed legs breaks free of his shackles and becomes a nationally acclaimed scientific researcher. Zhuang Meng draws complete lithography-machine technology from him, and from then on, China no longer has to worry about being strangled by restrictions on its chips. A mermaid princess devoted to finding her beloved charges into the entertainment industry and sets it straight with her official position. Zhuang Meng draws an SS-rank skill from her: [Water Avoidance]. The river runs east for thirty thousand li before reaching the sea, and she can roam freely through waves ten thousand zhang high. Later, Zhuang Meng discovers that this skill not only lets her breathe freely underwater, but also does exactly what its name says: it avoids water. Anything that isn't water is treated as water and avoided, so even nuclear wastewater has to go around her. The Weaver Girl, whose feather robe was stolen, becomes a goddess once again through her weaving skills and thrashes the thief who stole it. Zhuang Meng draws an SSS-rank skill from her: [Heavenly Weave: Feather Robe]. Spun from clouds and guided by rosy light, it keeps her warm in winter and cool in summer, and is impervious to water and fire. Wearing it makes her light as a swallow, floating as if she could fly. The robe is wonderful, but the materials are very hard to catch. Zhuang Meng has barely taken off when a satellite spots her, and within an hour, she is rewarded with a house. The White Snake enters the world to repay the debt of saving her life. Who says she can only repay him by marrying him? Why not give him money, power, fame, status, and a beautiful wife, while becoming a guardian beast of the nation herself? Zhuang Meng draws an SSS-rank skill from her: [Command the Clouds and Rain]. With a turn of her hand, she raises clouds; with another, she brings rain, freely changing the weather through all four seasons. Zhuang Meng now has houses all over the country. Later, she gains the Divine Physician Valley legacy: [Immune to All Poisons]. Born with unusual bones, she is resistant to all poisons and can both save and kill. The people's health improves by leaps and bounds, and the nation grows stronger by the day. At last, the prosperous age we all wished for comes to pass. New novel coming soon: From Picking Up Space Junk to Building the Motherland Sheng Xia never imagined she would be the overlooked biological daughter in a story about a real and fake heiress. She never expected to be kicked out of the house after graduation for refusing an arranged marriage, with nothing but a plot of... garbage land in the suburbs to her name. Just as she takes a deep breath and steps through the rickety gate of the recycling center, a cool voice comes from above her head: [Ding! Congratulations, you have been selected to participate in the Interstellar Laborer 101 program. Do you accept?] "Yes." Sheng Xia looks at the silver employee badge that has suddenly appeared in her hand. Three neat, gold-plated characters are written on it: Scavenger. On Pique Star, pigs are taller than cows, cows are bigger than elephants, and ducks are fiercer than geese. After slaughtering pigs and cows and roasting ducks, Sheng Xia finishes her task and looks at the mountain of "garbage" piled in the warehouse: pig offal, pig trotters, pig heads, pig organs, cow faces, beef tendons, tripe, duck necks, duck legs, and duck frames. A grin spreads across her face. On Oran Star, the broad, heavy leaves of lulu plants are each bigger than an adult's bathtub. Tear off a piece and stick it to your body to reduce inflammation, stop itching, prevent heat rash, and relieve pain. On Lucheng Star, trees grow lush and tall, with thick trunks. Their stripped bark can protect against fire, knives, and gunfire. Bula Star, Ziyang Star, Shuize Star... Countless kinds of garbage are turned into resources and brought back to Huaxia in a steady stream. Just as Sheng Xia thinks she'll be stuck dealing with trash for the rest of her life, she suddenly receives a special invitation from her employer: "What? You want me to represent your family in a planetary competition? No, I can't do that. I'm just a trash collector who illegally immigrated from another star. I'm probably less educated than your elementary school students. Am I supposed to go up there and pick up junk?" Then she sees the questions from last year's competition. Question One: A surviving fragment reads, "Bright moonlight before my bed, _____; I suspect it is frost on the ground, _____." Fill in the missing words. Question Two: The characters in a surviving fragment are badly run together. Only these can be made out: "If heaven has feelings heaven too grows old the right path of the human world is one of vicissitudes." Archaeologists believe these are two lines of poetry. Use "/" to mark the correct division, and briefly explain your reasoning. Bonus Question: The next line of a famous ancient poet's masterpiece, "Have you not seen the waters of the Yellow River descending from the sky," is worth ten points if completed. Complete the entire poem to advance directly to the Central Star finals and earn guaranteed admission to Jiuzhou University. Well, well, well. This is actually right up my alley!!! Later, Sheng Xia wins across the interstellar world with her vast knowledge of ancient poetry, restoring the culture and history of the parallel world of Jiuzhou. She claims all the garbage and expired goods in the galaxy, including but not limited to food, weapons, medicine, and satellite and spacecraft technology. If one person can't use it all, then let's use it to build the motherland. Theme: Dream of mountains and seas, and stride boldly ahead. Even when mired in the mud, keep the courage to turn your vision into reality.
