Competing

Chapter 7 God-like existence
In the work shed, Zhou Da was anxious like an ant on a hot pot, fidgeting and spinning back and forth in the work shed angrily.Lu Ming was lying on the couch with a pale complexion, his brows were frowned, and he could see the worry and worry in his heart.Pu Jun sat on the side, silent for a long time.

They have already learned from Gao Yi the cruelty of the "Gopher Cellar", the small space, the inhuman torture, no one can survive four days.But Yin Xu's sentence was five days, and he helped each of them for two days. Even though Gao Yi begged for a reduction of three days, it didn't help.The news has already been spread on the construction site. No one believes that Yin Xu can come out alive, and no one can live past five days.

Such a heavy news made Pu Jun and others breathless for a while.Zhou was furious, he was afraid that he wanted to kill someone; Lu Ming blamed himself and felt guilty because of him, and felt very sorry for Yin Xu; The attitude is firm, if you block it, you will look down on others, so you acquiesce.Although they thought that the "gopher cellar" was not a good place, they didn't expect it to be so scary.

But now? , all the guilt rests on Yin Xu's shoulders alone.At this time, the three of them felt a little more reverence and emotion. Normally, Yin Xu was generous and loyal, and they got along well.But they are just friends, and the real test of a person's character and relationship must be a time of crisis.The so-called adversity sees the truth is exactly this principle.

Yin Xu has done all these things, and today he used practical actions to explain what it means to see the truth in adversity?What does it mean to stab a knife for a brother?What is responsibility?Some complicated but simple emotions in Pu Jun and the others were touched.

"No, if this continues, Brother Donglai will die!"

"Let's find Gao Yi to find a way and ask He Kun to reduce his sentence."

"The worst thing is to stay with Brother Donglai. A good brother is a good brother when we are in trouble."

Pu Jun raised his head and said in a deep voice: "Is it useful? Gao Yi actually helped to intercede. If He Kun agrees, he will express his opinion."

In a word, it was like pouring a basin of cold water on Zhou Da and Lu Ming's heads, and their hearts felt cold.After a long time, Lu Ming asked: "Then what should we do? How can we win Brother Donglai, we can't look at him like this..."

Pu Jun said sadly: "Lu Ming, take care of your wounds. Zhou Da is watching here to prevent anyone from provoking trouble again. That's what Donglai did. Don't disappoint his kindness."

"What about you?" Zhou Da couldn't help asking.

"I'm going to find a way to bring back a wild animal and supplement food for Lu Ming and Donglai. Let them have enough physical strength to support them first, and then we will find a way!" After Pu Jun finished speaking, he got up and walked away.

Yin Xu woke up from his sleep, his muscles were sore, and he wanted to stand up and move his muscles and bones.I didn't want to just get up, and with a bang, the top of my head hit the wooden board pressing the stones, causing pain.

Only then did he wake up, and he was locked in the small "gopher cellar".

It was dark underground, and without knowing the passage of time, Yin Xu could only guess that he had been in for a day.The basis is that some time ago, someone came to deliver a meal - a piece of roe deer meat, no need to think too much, it must have been delivered by Pu Jun and the others.

After being hungry for a whole day, Yin Xu grabbed it and ate it voraciously. He was immediately relieved and couldn't help but praise Pu Jun's barbecue skills.The cave is damp and cold, without such a high-calorie food supplement, it is absolutely impossible to survive.

Fortunately, it didn't rain for the past two days, so I didn't suffer from that torture. However, the place in the cave is small, and I have to eat, drink, and scatter in it, and the smell and environment are really annoying.

Staying inside, doing nothing, will cause people to feel inexplicable fear after a long time.In his previous life, he once read a post on the Internet, if a person is locked in a room that does not distinguish between day and night, and all the timers are taken away, people will not know the passage of time.Those locked in it will feel that the time passes very slowly, and finally they can't stand it and collapse. It seems that they will use it during special interrogations.

Now Yin Xu's experience is similar, he has to endure this kind of mental torture.Fortunately, someone came to deliver meals every day and let him know a little about the time. He chose to sleep for most of the rest of the time. Only in this way, the waiting time would not be so long.

But at the end of the day, it was not easy for him to fall asleep, and what was even more terrible was that he maintained a posture for a long time, and his muscles were extremely sore.But I can't stand up and move around, so I can only find ways to pinch and massage to make the blood flow smoothly.It's only a temporary effect, and it's nothing more than a temporary solution!
On the second day, this discomfort began to intensify. Under various physical tortures, some changes began to occur in Yin Xu's heart, and he began to feel a little irritable.Leaning against the wall of the "Gopher Cellar", the back is icy cold, feeling the boundless darkness with the body, quiet!The quiet Yin Xu could only hear his own breathing, the quietness was scary.

Maybe it's night now?The occasional vibration of rammed earth was gone, and the feeling that made him feel the existence of the world was gone.Yin Xu felt that he was like a tiny floating dust, floating in the long sky, with nothing around him, as if the dark and cold night would engulf him at any time.A kind of fear and violence slowly came to my heart, and began to destroy Yin Xu's will.

Ah!
This kind of violence had been gathering for a long time, and Yin Xu couldn't control it anymore, and a shout full of violence spewed out from the ground.Almost waking up everyone's dreams, the corps leader He Kun said: "I can't take it anymore, what kind of hero are you? Hmph!" After speaking, he fell back and continued to sleep soundly.

Gao Yi got up from the couch in shock, took a long breath, shook his head secretly, and stayed awake all night.Pu Jun and the others heard the sound in their ears, and the sound hit their hearts, which hurt like a knife!
After a loud cry, Yin Xu felt much more comfortable, and his mind returned to clarity for a while, and the beating heartbeat told him that he was still alive.He didn't dare to think so wildly, he would collapse sooner or later, he began to consciously control his thinking.

He thought of the memories of his previous life, he thought of Pu Jun, Zhou Da and the others, he thought of his childhood dream of being a hero... When he grabbed the water bag that he always carried with him, he also thought of Yuniang who was full of care for him, everything told He can't die, he must live well...

It won't be long before the sore muscles and the fear and violence in his heart hit his heart again. Yin Xu was shocked and hurriedly searched in his mind for how to resist.If not, it will be a matter of time to go crazy and die.

For a long time, Yin Xu suddenly remembered those monks and priests who sat in meditation. Why did they sit calmly for so long?correct!He thought of the answer, which was to have no other distractions, get rid of distracting thoughts, and calm down.He also remembered that he thought his friend practiced qigong, and he learned a little out of curiosity, and now he can use it.

Yin Xu leaned forward, half-kneeled and moved his waist, and finally sat down cross-legged, slowly falling into the mode of an old monk in meditation.At the same time, he secretly practiced that set of qigong mental methods, and the violent qi was gradually suppressed, gradually transformed into softness, and merged into his body, as if wandering among his limbs, acupoints, and meridians...

Days intensified, Yin Xu's violence and depression became more and more serious, he often shouted, and sometimes he became crazy and rained his fists on the earth wall, his hands were already bloody.Fortunately, the glimmer of clarity in Lingtai is always there, and the desire to live is very strong, pulling him back from the brink of collapse time and time again.After every day of madness, he began to practice qigong meditation, and the violent energy in his body became stronger and stronger. During the process of his meditation practice, it continued to soften and flow into the meridians.Unknowingly, Yin Xu's skill is growing rapidly, which will be of great benefit to his future martial arts advancement, but he has not realized it yet.

For several consecutive days, Yin Xu alternated between madness and meditation. On a certain night or day, he was finally exhausted to the extreme.Leaning against the cold wall, fell into a deep sleep...

For five days, it was an absolute torment for Pu Jun and the others. They often heard Yin Xu's heart-piercing screams, and they couldn't imagine what kind of pain it was.Every time I hear them, my heart feels like a knife is twisted, and my tiger's eyes are moist.

Although the cry was miserable, it was still "good news", proving that at least Yin Xu was still alive.But since the morning of the fourth day, the cry has never appeared again, not only that, but no one has touched the food delivered for two consecutive days...

Pu Jun, Zhou Da, Lu Ming, and Gao Yixin were all taken to the extreme. Is it true that no one survived the fourth day as the traditional saying?Is Yin Xu really dead?Almost everyone believed that Yin Xu could not be alive.

The same is true for He Kun. Under Gao Yi's plea, he agreed to release him early at noon on the fifth day.But in his opinion, what was released was nothing more than a stinking corpse!
Gao Yi, Pu Jun and the others rushed to the "Gopher's Cellar" in a hurry, and many laborers looked there at the same time, then shook their heads and continued to work.People are dead, there is nothing to see.

Zhou Da moved a few big stones on the wooden board, Pu Jun opened the wooden board tremblingly, and a foul smell came to their faces, as if they had never heard of it.The punch marks and blood stains on the mud wall were obvious. Yin Xu leaned against the wall, his hair was disheveled and covered his entire face, and a pair of blood-stained hands were placed on his chest.

Pu Jun trembled slightly, choked up and couldn't speak, while Lu Ming was already crying.Gao Yi shook his head helplessly, feeling very sad.

"Cough!" A slight cough sounded, Pu Jun rubbed his eyes in disbelief, just now he clearly saw Yin Xu's chest rising and falling slightly.Could it be?He lowered his head and called softly, "Brother Donglai..."

"Stinky boy, if you don't come again, brother will really die!" Pu Jun heard it clearly, it was indeed Yin Xu's voice.He could even see a faint smile on the resolute face under the messy hair.

"He's still alive! He's still alive!" Pu Jun wept with joy and shouted loudly.

Zhou Da, Gao Yi, and Lu Ming who were in grief all surrounded them, and after a while, tears filled their eyes.Shouting: "He's alive!"

Everyone on the construction site was stunned, he didn't die?still alive?Didn't you say that you must die in four days?It was only three hours to five days away, and he was still alive?That's right, I saw Pu Jun and the others carrying a wooden board with a blindfolded sculpture on it, and hurried to the work shed.No, that's not a sculpture, it's a real person, a living Yin Xu.

"What? He's still alive?" He Kun was stunned when he heard the news.

One of his soldiers replied: "Many people have seen it. They are not dead and can still talk. They have been carried back to the work shed for treatment."

He Kun hit the ground with his buttocks, and muttered: "How is it possible? No one has ever survived for four days, how is it possible..." He is the natal cousin of Mrs. One day, my cousin sent someone to bring a few pieces of gold, and asked him to do me a favor.Let him find a way to clean things up, and in the end he cannot go back alive.

Having taken the gold and being relatives, He Kun didn't ask much, and agreed to the matter with little effort.That day, he secretly instructed the five reckless men to find fault with Yin Xu, who knew that he admitted the wrong person and injured Lu Ming.Fortunately, Yin Xu arrived in time and made a move. He Kun was very satisfied, and this excuse was what he wanted.

It's just a fight, so it's not good to punish too severely, the future will be long!Therefore, shutting down the "hamster cellar" for two days, the two of them can't die for a while, but it is very tortured, the body will be greatly damaged, and the death of the weak-willed person is also possible.This is not too much, it is justified by face.

Who knows that Yin Xu has to bear it alone, isn't the eight-day "hamster cellar" courting death?It saved him a lot of trouble.Later, Gao Yi talked badly and hinted that the five reckless men would not be punished, so he reduced the sentence to five days.In his opinion, there is no difference between five days and eight days, both of which are bound to die.But Yin Xu survived, which made him unbelievable.Therefore, I had to think of another plan to fulfill my cousin's entrustment.

Whether He Kun believes it or not, the fact that Yin Xu survived is there.After Lu Ming and others massaged for a long time, Yin Xu's muscles gradually recovered. Gao Yi tried to invite a doctor to treat him, and Pu Jun tried to hunt a deer to replenish his body.

The supervisor is Gao Yi, and he has the final say on whether the civilian husband works or not. As long as there is no fight or escape, the supervisor He Kun can't intervene, so everything is very convenient.In this way, Yin Xu will be able to walk on the ground in four or five days, and will recover after more than half a month.

After this incident, Yin Xu's magic was spread on the construction site, and what happened in Xiangxi Town was also known, rumors were spread, such as catching ghosts, gods descending to earth, and so on.In the hearts of everyone, Yin Xu is already a god-like existence.
