The famous mathematician Hu Luogeng once said: "The combination of shape and number is good in a hundred ways, and the division and separation is stopped in ten thousand things." In fact, many algebraic problems can be transformed into geometric problems for solving. For example, $\sqrt{(x-a)^2+(y-b)^2}$ can be transformed into the distance between point $M(x,y)$ and point $N(a,b)$ on the plane. Based on the above perspective, find the minimum value of $f(x)=\sqrt{x^2+4x+20}+\sqrt{x^2+2x+10}$.
