Chapter Twenty-Five: Young Tian Qi
The cold wind in the northwest blows strongly, the dark clouds come with the wind, covering the pale sunlight in winter, the sky is getting darker and darker, sprinkling small snow particles like flying sand, covering the green turf, green as blue, early snow as salt, quite a scene of early winter.
Ponsie yawned, hot air exhaled from his mouth, condensing into a white mist in front of his eyes, and he tightened his coat to block the pervasive cold wind, trying to wrap himself more tightly.
He is already in the realm of "metamorphosis", it stands to reason that he is not afraid of cold and heat, but unfortunately his body is a crab, and he hates cold by nature, although his body is not afraid of winter, he is a little impatient in his heart, and he can't lift his spirit.
"Attention candidates, let's start the first test now - long-distance running, give everyone five minutes to prepare, and start the test in five minutes. Yin Yanling walked out of the crowd and said with a smile.
"Long-distance running?"
The black-faced young man's eyes lit up, and he almost burst out loud, quickly took off his thick down jacket, changed into a pure black vest and shorts, revealing a dark tendon and flesh, and jogged in place in the cold wind like a knife.
More than 100 people present, except for a few who were directly admitted, all took off their thick winter clothes, changed into close-fitting sportswear, and started to prepare for activities.
Pang Xie looked up at the sky, and did not mean to change his clothes at all, but tied the heavy coat on his body more tightly.
After Yin Yanling finished speaking, she stood aside, squinted at the candidates, and nodded from time to time, only when she saw Pang Xie, she let out a slight "huh".
Five minutes later.
Yin Yanling slowly came to the starting position, and took off her black coat in the surprised eyes of everyone.
"Examiner Yin, do you want to run with us?" asked a curious candidate.
"No way, the rules of our interview are like this, you follow me, I don't shout to stop, I don't want to stop, before I shout stop, those who can't run are eliminated, and those who are more than one lap by me are also eliminated. Yin Yanling said with a smile.
"And how long are we going to run?"
"Let's run first. ”
While speaking, Examiner Yin had already stepped out and ran out, swaying and unhurried, just like the speed of ordinary people's morning exercises.
Speaking from the heart, this speed is simply a joke for candidates who take the exam, after all, those who can participate in today's interview are not idle people.
Most of them silently followed behind the examiner, and a few even ran in front of the examiner, showing too much energy.
Pang Xie was wrapped in a heavy coat, and followed behind this group of people unhappily, his dress attracted a lot of eyeballs, and a few of them showed the eyes of an idiot, so he almost opened his mouth and asked, "Brother, are you here to make soy sauce?"
Running in winter, the more you run, the hotter it gets, even ordinary people will change into light clothes, and they have never run in a coat.
......
The northwest wind was getting stronger and stronger, the snow particles were getting bigger and bigger, and the sky was gradually overcast, and it was just after nine o'clock in the morning, and the sky was overcast like evening.
Twenty minutes later.
Yin Yanling was still running staggeringly, as if she hadn't noticed the change in the weather, and some of the candidates behind him had become impatient and began to whisper.
"This round of testing is too easy, isn't it?
"How long will you have to play, and you won't be able to eliminate people like this?"
Only a few candidates found that Yin Yanling's speed was not suitable for static, but was slowly accelerating, but the acceleration was extremely slow, and ordinary people couldn't find it.
Forty minutes later.
"Damn, when is this broken examiner going to run, Lao Tzu can't bear it. "Someone secretly slandered himself.
"This guy doesn't even sweat a little on his head, it's too scary, isn't it?" someone who followed behind Yin Yanling was surprised.
"I'll wipe it!" a young man in an orange tracksuit suddenly lay on the ground with his legs crossed, and the candidates behind him avoided it, but no one was willing to delay for a second.
Pang Xie staggered to his side, leaned over and pinched two handfuls on his legs, and said lazily, "You get up slowly and try it." ”
"I'm here... Hey, why doesn't it hurt... Alas, it hurts again!" After the young man got up, he found that his leg no longer hurt, and he was in a hurry, and ran two steps, but the root of his thigh was in severe pain.
"You've got a thigh strain, so let's rest. Ponsie slapped him twice more on the leg, then turned and continued to run with the group.
The young man found that his leg didn't hurt anymore, and he struggled to run, but it hurt again when he ran, and he could only limp to the sidelines.
Two hours later.
The snow was blowing heavily, and the entire stadium was silvery white.
Yin Yanling still looked like she was smiling, running at the front, looking back at the candidates behind her from time to time, no one was running in front of him, and the fastest one was also pulled ten meters behind him.
After more than two hours of long-distance running, of the more than 120 people who originally participated in the test, only more than 90 people remained on the field, and the rest were either unable to run, or were overtaken by Yin Yanling from behind and forced to eliminate.
The people who stayed on the field were roughly divided into four echelons, and the first echelon was about a dozen people, silently following behind Yin Yanling, among whom was the black-faced young man who had just stood up.
The second echelon is about twenty or thirty people, more than ten meters away from the first echelon, all of them are sweating profusely, the third echelon has the most people, almost thirty or forty people, all of them are out of breath, more than 20 meters worse than the second echelon, and the last echelon can hardly be called an echelon, there are only a dozen or so people in total, running sparsely behind, panting one by one, and may stop at any time.
As for the thirty or forty eliminated, most of them have already left the stadium, and only five or six people are still not giving up, insisting on standing on the edge of the track to see what the test will be.
Poncher ran at the back of the line, snowflakes digging down the gap in the collar and into his neck, cold and damp.
He secretly regretted that he should have bought a scarf when he went to the city a few days ago, but unfortunately he had no experience in living in the north.
......
"Ahh
The candidate in front of him slipped under his feet and threw himself on the ground, and his palm happened to buckle on the ice ballast on the side of the road, drawing a slender wound, and blood suddenly oozed out.
The snow has not disappeared, condensed into ice, it is already very smooth, if the physical strength is exhausted, it is a matter of time before it falls, but this candidate is unlucky, and he scratches his hand when he encounters ice ballast.
Several candidates who followed behind this candidate avoided him one after another, and several of them were out of breath and had no extra energy to distract.
Pang Xie staggered to the candidate's side, and glanced down, this is a very immature face, almost fifteen or sixteen years old, the white face is a little blue from the cold, the eyes are bright and scary, the clothes are thin and shabby, the cuffs are worn out in several places, and it has obviously been some years.
"Come on. Pang Xie reached out and grabbed his left hand, the tentacle was cold, and it didn't look like he was running a long distance at all.
The boy nodded, gritted his teeth, stood up, and ran forward.
"Smack!"
Fifty meters later, the boy slipped again, this time even harder, hitting his forehead on the ground and oozing blood.
"You can rest for a while, you won't be able to run. Ponsie couldn't help but say.
This teenager's physique can only be said to be average, a little better than ordinary people, but among the candidates who took the exam today, he was at the bottom, his body was a little emaciated, and he was obviously a long-term lack of nutritional supplements.
"I can't give up... Certain... To get this job!"
The boy gritted his teeth, barely got up, blood mixed with sweat, dripping down his forehead, blurring his eyes, wiping the mixture of blood and sweat with his hands, and continued to run forward.
Pang Xie was unhurried and continued to follow behind the young man, even if he didn't have the magic power of "medical dao", he could see that the young man's body was on the verge of collapse, and he would fall down at any time.
What is this young man for, he will do whatever it takes to fight for this job, Pang Xie suddenly became interested.
......
"Ahh
The boy stumbled under his feet again, his body fell to the side, and in a panic, he propped his hands on the ground, and the slightly coagulated wound cracked open again, and the blood dripped on the white snowflakes, instantly condensing into ice.
"Ahem... Ahem..."
The boy didn't care about the pain in his hands, struggled to get up, and ran forward slowly, gasping for breath in his mouth, one hand hanging down at his side, and the blood was dripping and leaving his palm.
After falling three times in a row, he had distanced himself from the large army in front of him, and although he was running desperately, the distance was getting farther and farther.
The snow on the track was trampled in circles and became smoother and smoother.
More than a hundred meters later, the single-clothed young man slipped again, his back was facing the sky, the back of his head was down, and he smashed straight to the ground, he no longer had the extra strength to struggle this time, and his hands were helpless to pull towards the void, hoping to pull the life-saving straw, but unfortunately there were only snowflakes falling in the air.
The young man's eyes closed, ready to endure the impending severe pain, to his strange surprise, the expected severe pain did not come, he only felt someone around his waist to support, his body suddenly lightened, and he stood firmly on the track again.
The boy turned around, and behind him was Pang Xie, one hand in his coat pocket, the other pressed on his waist, looking at him lazily.
"Thank you, may I ask who you are?" said the boy, gasping.
"Ponsie, what about you?"
"Tian Qi. ”
"Let's run. ”
"No, I..."
Tian Qi shook his head, his physical strength had already exceeded the limit, and if he ran together, he would only drag Pang Xie down.
This young man would actually refuse? Pang Xie suddenly became a little interested, he had obviously fought for his life and wanted to complete the exam, but he refused the help of others, I really don't know what he thought.
Pang Xie smiled, revealing two rows of white and shiny teeth, holding one hand on Tian Qi's waist, not allowing him to distinguish, he lifted half of his body and ran forward quickly.
Tian Qi felt that his body was light, his legs involuntarily ran up, not only did his physical strength not be consumed, but gradually recovered, his eyes stared at Pang Xie widely, his eyes were full of surprise.
