Chapter 12: Born ordinary, but unwilling to be ordinary
In the past six months, under the influence of Yang Wu, Feng Lichen insisted on exercising while finishing his work. Running is the most normal thing to do. However, this is the first time to run with weights like today, and as a subordinate, the conditions and time do not allow them to have such systematic training.
At first, the two of them obviously couldn't adapt to this method, and they felt very strained, especially Feng Lichen, whose body was already relatively thin and small, and he couldn't withstand this kind of intense training at all.
Yang Wu also muttered in a low voice: "With such a weight-bearing method, how can it be possible to run back and forth in the time of a pillar of incense, isn't this a joke?"
Yancheng covers a very large area and is one of the main cities of the Shu Dynasty, occupying one-tenth of the total area of the Shu Dynasty.
Yangfu is located in the core area of Yancheng, which is more than 100 kilometers away from the city gate. Even those who practice martial arts with a certain amount of strength can only complete such a task if they run with all their might, and now let an ordinary person like him run back and forth with a load, he suddenly felt that he was joking with him.
However, they also knew in their hearts that with Yang Wu's understanding of Yang Zirong, he was notoriously strict and unsympathetic in the Yang Mansion.
Yang Zirong didn't mean to joke with them at all, if they couldn't complete this training mission, Yang Zirong would probably not appear in front of them again. Because, this time he came completely for the sake of Steward Yang's face.
Without Yang Zirong's training, no matter how capable they were, they couldn't be excavated, and in the face of the severe test of the head of the family, they had no chance at all if they wanted to complete it.
At this moment, all they can do is to show the strength of their whole body and run desperately, even if they fall on the road, it doesn't matter, at least they have tried.
Feng Lichen panted and said to Yang Wu: "Brother Yang Wu, since we have chosen to take this path, no matter what, we should go on and live up to ourselves." Now, all we can do is give our best and work hard. My dad told me that no one can tell what the outcome will be until anything is done. ”
"Big brother, I'm really ashamed! Okay, listen to you, then let our brothers go crazy once, see where our limit is, if we can't finish it once, then twice, if we can't finish it twice, then three times, until it's done. Feng Li's words made Yang Wu feel high, and he replied with a laugh.
"Brother Yang Wu, today is the first time we have tried this kind of training, and it will definitely not be completed according to our current ability, so we have to adapt to it through today, find a way, and wait for the next time we have experience, so that it is possible to complete it. After he finished speaking, he sped up and ran forward.
Under the dark sky, on the rooftops of the houses on both sides of the street, a black shadow moved rapidly, always watching the wind scarf their movements. Hearing their conversation, the corners of his mouth rose slightly on his serious face, and a hint of relief appeared in his eyes.
So he also quickened his speed towards the city gate, and the whole person disappeared into the night like a civet cat, fast and silent.
For the rest of the day, none of them spoke much, rushing forward desperately, needing to maintain their physical strength and continue to run.
They felt that a long time had passed, and when they ran more than 20 kilometers, their speed had slowed down significantly, on the other hand, the incense that was lit at the gate of Yang's Mansion had burned to the bottom, or it would be burned out in a while.
The two of them were already exhausted and panting, and their muscles were throbbing all over their bodies, slower than normal people walking. Sweat had already soaked through their clothes, but they had no intention of giving up.
At this time, a rooster crowed, and in the distant sky, there was a trace of fish belly white in the black sky, and the sky had gradually opened, and they had not even run to the city gate.
The weight on their backs was like the power of a thousand gold, overwhelming them, the two of them were really tired and struggling, and now only strong willpower was left to support them.
They could already see the city gate, and they saw that the city gate was right in front of them, but they felt that no matter how much they ran, they would not be able to reach it!
"Why, do you want to give up? Do you know that one of the assessments in the selection of the Yang Mansion's personal guards is to carry a weight of fifty kilograms, and then return to the Yang Mansion after a pillar of incense without running from the Yang Mansion to the city gate. It's very disappointing that you didn't even manage to complete a one-way trip. ”
The extremely tired wind heard Yang Zirong's voice sound.
"Big, big, great, we don't want to give up, even if we use all our strength, I will persevere. After he finished speaking, he walked to Yang Wu's side with difficulty, helped Yang Wu, who was half-kneeling on the ground, and continued to run forward.
Yang Zirong's voice sounded again: "There has never been anything in this world that is at your fingertips, without a hundred times the effort, you can never achieve anything, and you can only be willing to be a subordinate." ”
Yang Zirong's every word was deeply rooted in the hearts of Feng Liqi and Yang Wu, stabbing their hearts fiercely, they knew very well what the concept of being a subordinate forever was, that is, there would never be a day to emerge.
Especially the wind marks, the life of Diling Village, and the days of wandering in Yancheng made him experience all kinds of injustices in this world, and let him know that in this world, without strength, rights, and status, he can only live at the bottom of the world and never turn over.
"You must know that the so-called strong in your eyes are also mortals, and on the road of the strong, if there is no great perseverance, the final result can only be ordinary after all. If you want to control your own life, you must become a strong person, because only a strong person is qualified to control your destiny. ”
Yang Zirong's words not only hurt their hearts, but also aroused their deep unwillingness, they are not willing to do nothing in their lives, and they are not willing to be ordinary in their lives.
Everyone's starting point is different, some people are born in a family of power, living above everyone, and some people who are born ordinary must create their own extraordinary life through their own hands.
Feng Lichen glanced at Yang Wu and asked: "Brother Yang Wu, let's rush, I don't want to be ordinary, I have experienced how sad it is to live that kind of life, and now that I think about it, I even hate their kind of pitiful gaze." Therefore, no matter how bumpy the mountain road is, I have to find a life that I belong to, born ordinary, but I am not willing to be ordinary. ”
Feng Lichen looked at the direction of the city gate: "Brother Yang, do you know, after you left yesterday, I met Yang Xiong again, he said something very right, he said that people who live in the lower world, as long as they have the opportunity, they want to climb up, because no one wants to be trampled underfoot, and ants still steal their lives." ”
After Feng Lichen finished speaking, without waiting for Yang Wu to reply, he roared, the exhaustion of his whole body had already been left behind, and he rushed forward desperately.
Yang Wu was not far behind, and shouted loudly: "The road of the strong, I'm coming!"
Yang Zirong's figure appeared on the roof, and he smiled at the two who had been rejuvenated before, and followed.
When people are extremely tired, their willpower will drop to a low point, and if they want to rejuvenate their spirits again, someone must prick their hearts and stimulate their own potential.
Yang Zirong's method has worked, he has deeply grasped the hearts of the two of them, the people at the bottom of the world, young and thoughtful, and also have perseverance, but they need someone to guide them.
A good rotten wood, no one cares, it is a rotten wood, only when it meets the right master, after careful carving, can turn decay into magic, achieve it.
There is a male lion sleeping in everyone's body. The two of them were already exhausted, and now they were completely supported by a belief in their hearts that they would not admit defeat, and they ran forward quickly.
Feng Lichen was about seven years younger than Yang Wu, and his physical strength was much worse than him. A quarter of an hour had passed since they set out anew, and the gates of the weir city were in sight.
They looked at the gate in front of them, and a smile spread on their faces, but their eyes had become blurred, and they could only vaguely see the outline of the gate.
With a "bang", the wind dripping scar fell at the gate of the city, his physical strength was completely exhausted, and his eyelids were heavy, but he was crawling forward, climbing until he stretched out his hand and touched the city wall.
At this moment, the closed gate of the city gate opened, and a glimmer of dawn appeared, and he looked at the warm sunlight shining on his face, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and he completely fainted.
Yang Wu, followed by him, came to the gate of the city, he did not fall to the ground, he knelt on the ground with both feet, supported the ground with both hands, and crawled towards the wind and scarred.
Yang Zirong stood on top of the city gate, and the whole person jumped down, his body was extremely light, and he landed beside the wind, and his feet landed without a sound.
He crouched down, stretched out his right hand, and put his middle and index fingers together, and probed into the neck of the wind scarf, and his eyes did not change at all.
Yang Zirong stood up and said, "He just ran out of strength, collapsed and passed out." You rest here first, and when he wakes up, he will come back on his own, and I will wait for you at the gate at the end of the night, and continue to complete your unfinished business. ”
After he finished speaking, he walked towards the Yang Mansion.
Yang Wu, who no longer has the extra strength to speak, is very anxious when he sees Feng Liji fainting.
Yang Zirong's words made him breathe a sigh of relief. The whole person lay on the ground, looking at the gradually brightening sky and smirking.
