Fifth, hardware shop
Civilization and new science and technology have made it possible for human beings in the era of national cultivation to succeed in their minds and enter the ranks of martial artists as long as they are not born with physical defects, even if their talents are very poor, as long as they are willing to endure hardships and stand hard work, and persist in training for a long time, they can basically exercise their physique to be strong enough before the age of twenty-five, and then under the guidance and protection of martial artists, they will succeed in enlightenment and enter the ranks of martial artists.
If you can't accumulate enough qi and blood before this, it can only mean that this person has no perseverance and perseverance, is naturally lazy, and can only be a waste. Such a person will make the whole society look down on him!
Civilians cannot pass the college entrance examination to enter universities to continue their studies, and can only obtain a higher social status through military merits.
Due to the fact that he was born in a civilian family, it is impossible to be exposed to high-level cultivation techniques like those children of wealthy families from a young age, and there are also various cultivation resources, such as equipment, pills, resources, exercises, environment, etc., I heard that there are also various source energy crystals that can directly absorb and refine and increase strength......
In short, if the children of ordinary people want to get ahead, they have to pay more sweat and effort than others.
Although the road to success is difficult and tortuous, and the hard work and efforts may not be able to exchange for success, but there will be no success without sweating and working hard!
In this era, the vast majority of ordinary children work hard every day.
Ling Li's talent is average, coupled with some lack of nutrition, although he is also very hard-working, but among hundreds of classmates, he can only be regarded as ordinary, at the lower middle level.
No one dares to be lazy in the "Yuan Peel" class, you must go all out, he can allow you to be unable to complete the entire training process because of physical exhaustion, but he will never tolerate his students cutting corners in training and not contributing to work. The fierce eyes of "Yuan Peel" are poisonous, for example, when you punch, you should have a strength of 140 kilograms, but you only burst out of 130 kilograms, he can see it.
This is also one of the lessons of blood and tears learned by the non-math elders.
The content of this training session is similar to the special forces training ground in the Blue Star in my memory, but it is closer to various field environments. While running, you need to climb over various obstacles: walls, wooden fences, climbing stumps, climbing walls with bare hands, drilling holes, etc., with obstacles every 50 meters.
The lap on the periphery of the playground was a thousand meters, and after only one lap, Ling Li's limbs were already sore, trembling constantly, and his body had reached its limit. Even though his will is relatively firm, the muscles that are extremely sore are not controlled at all, and he finally falls to the ground after completion.
"Ling Li, how do you feel?" "Monkey" smiled and walked over to him, standing in front of him and asked.
"It's okay, but I'm hungry." Ling Li struggled to his feet, grinned, and walked slowly. After a strenuous exercise that depletes one's physical strength, one cannot immediately lie down in the ground and rest. If you don't get up right away, the rattan in the hands of the instructors will fall on you.
The "monkey" is named Hou Chengxin, and he lives on the same street as Ling Li's family, but his eldest brother serves in the city defense army, and his second brother is in the pioneer team, and the living conditions of the family are much better than that of Ling Li's family. Although this guy looks thin, he has actually reached the level of a sixth-level martial artist, and he is two steps away from officially entering the ranks of martial artists, and he belongs to the top group of people in the grade, only his academic performance is average, and his goal is to enter the army after graduation.
This kind of obstacle run is relatively easy for him to complete, and when he saw Ling Li falling, he came over to ask.
"Let's drink some water first, it will make you feel better." The "monkey" handed Lin Li's kettle.
Drinking water can relieve hunger, but not too much during training. Lin Li took a few sips, then twisted the lid of the kettle, walked over slowly, and put the kettle engraved with his name back to the place where his class stored the kettle.
After resting for a while, I continued to train again. For these sixteen-year-old children, the arrangement of the "Yuan Peeling" training class is very terrifying.
The next training is coordination and flexibility exercises, Ling Li's physical fitness and strength are insufficient, but the body's balance and flexibility are very good, although in the end he is tired and exhausted, but he can also complete all the training content according to the requirements.
finally survived until the bell rang for the end of class, and the three military training classes had exhausted the physical strength of the vast majority of teenagers. When school was over, I went out of school with a few familiar classmates, and everyone dragged their tired bodies halfway, and they didn't even have time to talk to each other, let alone have the energy to fight.
Ling Li's family lived in a civilian area at the foot of the southern city wall, and after entering the city, with the help of a distant relative of the family, Ling Li found a part-time job as an apprentice in a small hardware store to support the family. He worked at the hardware store for two hours three days a week and half a day at the store on Sundays.
In this way, he can get 600 yuan a month, which is almost enough to maintain the minimum needs of a person.
"Zhoutong Hardware Store" is the small shop where Ling Li works, located on the street not far from their home, in a remote civilian area, and the ordinary business is also average, and it is barely able to sustain itself.
"Today is Yuan Sheng's class?"
When Ling Li came to the small hardware store, Zhou Tong, the owner of the hardware store, was half-lying on the recliner at the door, holding a dry tobacco stick in his mouth, squinting and enjoying the sunshine at dusk, with a trace of enjoyment and satisfaction on his face. Ling Li's house is located in the southeast corner under the city wall, and only at this moment can it be rare to have more than two hours of sunlight every day.
"Hmm."
Ling Li responded, and then advanced to a small shop of only a dozen square meters, consciously sorted out the scattered goods, and then cleaned up.
"What's the job today?" He took out the cleaned garbage with a dustpan, poured it into the bamboo basket beside Tang Tong, and then asked.
Zhou Tong spit out a puff of cigarette, didn't even open his eyes, and said: "There are three pots and an iron basin to mend in the backyard, as well as a pair of deformed helmets and a broken knife, repair them." There was still some leftover food at the counter, so I ate it and didn't have the energy to work. ”
Zhou Tong was in his fifties, he used to be a soldier, but he was lame, and after retiring, he opened a small business on this street. For Ling Li, it is already very good to be able to find a temporary job in the city, no matter what he does, as long as he can fill his stomach. After a long time, although the old guy picked the door, he knew very well that he would be a little physically exhausted after the "Yuan Peeling" class, and he was used to leaving him some leftover meals every Wednesday and Saturday to replenish his strength.
This is what makes Ling Li very grateful.
After listening to this, Ling Li returned to the store and took out a metal lunch box from under the counter, which contained a piece of pancake and some leftovers. He poured some boiling water into the lunch box, then soaked the dough in the vegetable soup and ate it in large gulps.
After a few mouthfuls of something, I finally felt a lot more relieved by the empty stomach, which was a little spasmed......
