Chapter 4: The Lone Wolf
The calf-high white-gray steps are stacked on top of each other, as far as the eye can see. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
It was only at this time that many people realized that nine thousand nine hundred and ninety-nine was also a large enough number, and ordinary steps were enough to make people fearful.
When it was time to set off, there were still people complaining behind him, sighing, whining, and even trying to bargain with Yan Yifan.
And often at this time, actions speak louder than words.
Yu Ji has already set off.
When she stepped on the first step, Yu Ji found that the air around her seemed to change all of a sudden, and the air that was originally scented with fruit trees was more comfortable to breathe at this time, and even every time she took a breath, her body seemed to be full of strength.
Taking a deep breath, Yu Ji rushed upward.
But after about five minutes, Yu Ji had already walked a hundred miles, and when she silently counted to a hundred, she found that there were two more water tanks on either side of the steps.
Thinking of the changed air just now, Yu Ji didn't feel thirsty, but still went over to scoop a spoonful, and at this time, several people were rushing past her.
After drinking, Yu Ji smacked her lips, it was indeed sweeter than ordinary spring water, but she didn't feel the recovery of physical strength, and the potion spring water in the game that can restore blood and return to the body is still different, Yu Ji was a little disappointed in her heart.
For people in the new century, at the age of 14, most of them have high physical fitness, even those who seem to be about to fall when the wind blows, their combat effectiveness is not to be underestimated, which comes from the changes in the vitality of many human cells that have improved because of the nutrient solution.
Therefore, when Yu Ji came to the three thousand steps, she had already seen that many people were resting by the spring, and some people had already stepped on the upper steps.
At this time, Yu Ji's condition is not good, the body that seems to have been cured by a bowl of wine by the divine doctor before is inevitably left with some dark injuries due to a large amount of blood loss, usually not tight, but every cool night I feel suffocated in my chest, it is difficult to sleep, and at this time, after a lot of physical strength is consumed, but three thousand steps, Yu Ji has felt a slight dizziness on her head.
No one can see it on the surface. She wasn't slow at all, and she rarely rested, so almost no one could tell that she was already uncomfortable.
When she reached the three thousand level, Yu Ji did not stop, but continued to climb up, gritting her teeth, one more step is one step, she can climb to the three thousand five hundred level and then rest. And when it reached level 3,500, she still didn't stop, even if every step was as heavy as lead, she still gritted her teeth, she could wait until level 4,000 to rest.
Her average speed is slower than many people, but she doesn't stop, she keeps climbing, and before she knows it, she's left a lot of people behind.
Whether it's a person or something else, there's a limit. Even in the new century, there is still no such thing as a perpetual motion machine, even if the average life expectancy of everyone has reached two hundred years old, but I still have never heard of anyone who is immortal, this is because everything has a degree, that is, the limit.
In fact, Yu Ji, who had already climbed to level 5,830, was already infinitely close to this limit.
She didn't dare to listen to the speed of her heartbeat, every beat was like a drum, and she didn't know how many times she beat every second. It was already dark in front of her, and she felt that it was getting late, and she was told more and more that there was no time to rest, and that she had to continue to grit her teeth and climb up, even faster.
There's nothing more desperate than making you feel powerless.
There were still four thousand one hundred and sixty-nine steps, a number that was enough to make a tired person despair, and if she could lean aside and take a breath at this time, there might be two results.
The first result was that her various senses were revived, and all parts of her body came to accuse her, blocking her and telling her not to continue to climb up.
The second result is that she feels better and can start better.
If she could choose, of course Yu Ji would choose to take a breath on the side before leaving, but she was not the one who made the choice. She wasn't sure if the result of taking a breath would be good or bad, and she wasn't sure if she would just collapse there and never get up again.
She couldn't control the answer to the multiple-choice question, but she made another choice and avoided the uncontrollable choice.
Keep climbing, don't stop.
Biting the tip of his tongue, he forced himself to wake up. In other words, use bloody gas to force yourself to reveal your true nature.
Wolves are bloodthirsty and crazy.
Staggering up the seven thousand steps almost hand and foot, Yu Ji stood up straight, straightened her waist, squinted, looked at the white gray in front of her, and smiled.
It's better to treat her body as if it weren't her own, anyway, whether it's hard to carry, or gritting her teeth, or crawling with her hands and feet, in short, she has to go up today.
She really didn't want to apprentice to Kunlun, just to go against herself.
Joke, she survived when it was so difficult, and now she can still stumble over a few steps?
Licking the corners of her mouth, when passing by the next water tank, Yu Ji scooped a spoonful of water and splashed herself all over her face.
Some of the comforting coolness seems to take away a little tiredness.
But only Yu Ji herself knew, her head was still buzzing, dizzy and painful, and as for her heart, it was almost beating straight out of her chest, and she even suspected that she would suddenly stop in the next second.
But she didn't stop.
She's going to win.
No matter what the price is, whether she will really throw her life on these white and gray steps in Kunlun, whether it is really meaningless to do it, but she doesn't care, because everything she wants to do, she has to do.
The blood dripped all over the ground, and on the remaining two thousand or so steps, a path dripped out.
I don't know when, maybe it was estimated that I had reached the limit anyway, so I took out a knife from my waist, wiped it in the palm of my hand, and pulled out the blood.
The pain bloomed in her palm, stimulating the nerves to beat suddenly, but she couldn't tell whether it was like this just now, or because of the stimulation of the pain, but what she knew was that the current situation was good and bad.
The good thing is that the heart beats much slower because of the blood loss, at least she doesn't have to worry about her heart going straight through her chest.
The bad thing is that the frequency of blackening in front of her eyes has increased, and even now, she can see that her eyes seem to be covered with a layer of black fog.
Yu Ji closed her eyes, and when she opened them again, she regained her clarity for about three seconds, and then turned into a foggy patch again.
Three seconds, that's enough.
After surviving the eight thousand four hundred steps, with each step, the muscles on her legs seemed to be torn, the more she was like this, the more she held her hand fiercely, and let the blood continue to drip on the ground, and on the white-gray ground, the bright red was particularly clear.
It's struggling.
The more difficult it is, the more she has to do it, just like when there were no peaks in Yin Yang Mountain.
Wolves travel thousands of miles. Even if he broke his leg and was bleeding, he couldn't stop a single step. can't let people see the way she looks when she licks her wounds, she can't bow her head to anyone, no matter how embarrassed her appearance is, in the eyes of others, she can only be shocked by the murderous aura on her body.
Nine thousand nine hundred and nine......
Nine thousand nine hundred and ninety-seven ......
Nine thousand nine hundred and ninety-eight ......
One last step!
Bang!
Before he had time to look ahead, the whole person collapsed with a bang.
The meaning of the limit is to be broken.
