Start by breaking the limits of the human body - Chapter 3
[Chapter 3 [Trigger]]
Crack!
The scorching sun burned my eyes, and the whip roared.
“Ah, I don’t dare anymore…”
“Damn you bitch, you can’t push a cart well, what’s the use of keeping you!” Before
Wu Dao’s eyes could adapt to the bright sunlight outside the mine, he heard the sound in his ears. There were bursts of screams, insults and whipping sounds.
Look up.
On the mine road, a wooden cart overturned, and the ore rolled everywhere. The boy with obvious ribs rolled around under the whip of the supervisor, wailing in despair and powerlessness.
The whip is a strong cowhide whip.
The whip-wielding overseer has big shoulders and a round waist, with red eyes and bared teeth. The ferocious scar on his right face beats like a centipede. Every time he swings the whip, his muscles bulge high, and the whip explodes in the wind and rain.
The force was such that even animals, let alone humans, would fall down after being whipped. It was obvious that they were running for their lives.
And indeed it is.
In less than a minute, the young man stopped moving. He spat out mouthfuls of blood with his face down. The skin on his back was torn open and the bones were visible in strips. He was twitching non-stop.
“Bah, you really deserve to lose your life without being beaten!” The scar-faced supervisor spat fiercely, with no guilt in his eyes, but only unfinished thoughts.
Wu Dao withdrew his gaze, feeling unperturbed. He had become accustomed to this kind of thing in the past three months.
It is not an exaggeration to say that the Sihai Gang does not treat the mining slaves as human beings.
The overseers are like wolves and tigers, and most of them have violent tempers. They patrol the mines every day with whips in hand. If they see anything wrong with the slaves, they will be beaten to death on the spot!
Even if you make no mistakes and are honest, they can find any reason to give you a good beating just to satisfy their perverted sadistic desires.
Since three months.
Wu Dao saw with his own eyes that no fewer than fifty people died under the whip of the supervisor.
The rest died of exhaustion, starvation, disease, and turned into feces. Taken together, at least a hundred people died in this hell mine.
But no matter how many die.
At the beginning of every month, the Sihai Gang can always find new slaves from the outside world to replace them, and the number of slaves in the entire mine is always maintained at three hundred.
The reason why the Sihai Gang is so rampant.
In the past few months, Wu Dao also learned some things about cause and effect from the new mine slaves.
Generally speaking, after six hundred years of prosperity, the Dali imperial power has seen its fortunes decline and has reached a point of decline.
The vassal kings from all over the world are self-respecting, the civil government is corrupt and incompetent, the three religions and nine currents are roaring in all directions, oppressing the people, and refugees are everywhere, making it a scene of troubled times.
Under this situation.
The Sihai Gang, the most powerful gang in the country, is naturally unscrupulous. In their eyes, human life is really no different than a piece of grass.
Wow!
Ore is poured into wooden carts.
Wu Dao no longer paid attention to the poor guy just now and prepared to continue working in the mine.
In the mine, there is no rest time from dawn to dusk. There is only a moment of respite in the mine where the supervisor cannot see.
He is now a fledgling, weak man, and deserves to suffer like this!
You are not qualified to challenge the rules of the mine. The right way is to hold back, lower your presence, and silently accumulate strength.
“Who is that? Quickly drag this little bastard to the No. 1 mine and throw him away, bad luck!”
Wu Dao was about to go down to the mine, but the scar-faced supervisor pointed his whip and called his name.
He frowned slightly, thinking of something bad, but in the end he stepped forward without saying a word and dragged the unfortunate man’s body towards Mine No. 1.
Mine No. 1.
There is an ominous place in the Red Fire Mine, which the mine slaves call the Gate of Hell.
The reason is simple.
It does not produce ore, but is a natural abyss located in the heart of the mountain. It is a death pit specially used by the Sihai Gang to dispose of the corpses of mining slaves!
It has been about five or six years since the Chihuo Mine was established. During this period, the number of corpses thrown into the abyss has already exceeded thousands.
The cave is full of dead air and cold air all year round, making it creepy even from a distance. Even the physically strong members of the Sihai Gang are reluctant to get too close.
therefore.
Once someone dies in the Chihuo Mine, it is basically the mine slaves who throw away the body.
After returning, he may be in a trance, or seriously ill, and become the next poor thing to be thrown in.
Over time, Mine No. 1 became a taboo place that was talked about by the mine slaves, shrouded in a layer of weirdness.
Since March, Wu Dao has only heard of the name of Mine No. 1, but has never been there in person.
See you today.
Sure enough, there was an uneasy and weird atmosphere everywhere.
First is Jing!
Deathly silence!
It was clear that the mine outside was in full swing and noisy.
But as soon as a person enters the cave and is only a few steps away, he feels as if he is isolated from the rest of the world. The noise in his ears instantly turns into vague sounds coming from a distant place.
It seems that the whole person will be forgotten by the world in the next moment, and the spirit and will instantly become uneasy.
Next is the cold!
In midsummer, the sun is scorching.
Inside the bright cave, it was as cold as winter everywhere. Even though Wu Dao’s physique was in the realm of experts, he still shivered as soon as he entered the cave.
Finally it’s black!
A deep darkness thicker than ink!
It’s not that the cave passage is dark, but that it refers to the abyss and vertical shaft where the mining slaves are processed. It’s so dark that it makes people palpitate.
Not caused by lack of sunshine.
On the contrary…
Wu Dao glanced at the mountain pass that was as bright and wide as a volcanic crater above the abyss, and could see the blazing sun hanging high above the blue sky at noon.
However.
As soon as the bright daylight entered the abyss, it was immediately swallowed up by deep darkness, with visibility less than one meter.
This obviously goes against Wu Dao’s physical understanding.
but.
He was relieved when he thought that this world was an extraordinary world. There were some strange places that were not surprising.
call out!
The bloody gourd-like corpse fell into the abyss and was swallowed up by darkness in the blink of an eye.
Wu Dao leaned over and looked directly into the bottomless abyss. His strong and fiery blood resisted the coldness rising in the abyss, and his heart was calm.
Even if there are gods, ghosts and ghosts, they are just different kinds of life. With sufficient force and equality of all things, there is nothing to fear.
Are there monsters and ghosts in this world?
Wu Dao suddenly thought of this issue that he had ignored at the beginning, and once again had a strong yearning for the mysterious world beyond the high wall.
Tsk, let’s wait and see if we can get out alive.
Shake his head.
Wu Dao suppressed the restlessness in his heart, took one last look at the depths of the black abyss, frowned, stood up and left quickly.
This abyss seems to have some kind of demonic nature, which makes his current weak living body’s genetic instinct inexplicably fearful, as if facing a natural enemy.
The longer you stay.
The strange cold air that emerges becomes even colder, going straight into one’s bones, and the blazing sun above the head cannot be dispelled.
The sound of sobbing and howling that echoed in the abyss after the wind blew over it made people feel dizzy and depressed after hearing it too much, and they had the urge to dive in and end their lives.
Woohoo~
The wind blowing outside the cave suddenly became stronger, and the howling in the black abyss behind him became even more unsettling.
Wu Dao frowned, and the inexplicable uneasiness in his heart made him speed up and rush out of the cave. His intuition told him that if he continued to stay here, something bad would happen.
He always trusted his instincts.
But right now.
In the thick muddy dark depths that Wu Dao cannot see.
As another corpse fell, it seemed that quantitative changes caused qualitative changes, and the eternal silence began to surge and roll.
A shadow deeper than the darkness emerged, swimming quickly like a snake, breaking away from the muddy swamp and drifting toward the top of the abyss.
After a few breaths.
Under the scorching sun.
A human-shaped shadow, invisible to the naked eye, twisted and blurred, slowly appeared on the edge of the abyss. It hunched over and quickly approached Wu Dao with the roaring wind.
Hula la –
a fierce cold wind blew Wu Dao’s rags and ragged clothes and made his hair dance wildly.
Uh-huh…
The sudden coldness that penetrated into the bone marrow and soul made Wu Dao groan. The hairs on his body counted down, and he stood frozen on the spot. His right foot stopped in the void, his eyes dull.
Quiet countryside, day and night farming, severe drought and scorching sun, beggars on street corners with ferocious faces, whips and sticks, mine tunnels collapsing, bottomless black abyss… joy, anger, sorrow, howling in despair… strange scarlet pictures one after
another
, A series of mournful screams, as rough and brutal as an electric drill, penetrated the skin and bones, and pierced deep into the brain.
It only lasts for two or three seconds.
Wu Dao suffered from a splitting headache and a bone-chilling cold. He felt like life was worse than death, but he couldn’t make any sound.
His consciousness was getting further and further away in the endless chaos, madness, and torture, and the blood all over his body was as frozen as ice, stagnant.
Breathing–
breathing–
a low and thick sound with a mysterious rhythm sounded.
The will trained countless times in the abyss allowed Wu Dao, who was in crisis, to immediately hypnotize his brain with the secret breathing method and enter a state of extreme potential liberation.
In an instant, his brain’s protective mechanism was unlocked, his brain was overloaded, and his mental will was highly condensed and concentrated. He turned into a sky knife and soared, chopping up endless annoyances and killing the whispers of demons!
“Ah, I hate it!!”
followed by a shrill scream of unwillingness and resentment.
The sky is clear and the earth is bright, the spirit is refreshing and the air is calm!
Wu Dao seemed to be waking up from a big dream, and his consciousness finally returned to himself!
But it’s not over yet.
After taking back control of the brain, the nerves in the brain immediately send resistance messages up and down the human body.
Boom, boom, boom!
The heart, which had gradually stagnated due to the erosion of the cold air, was pumping crazily like a mechanical engine, and the hot blood was surging, racing rapidly through the body.
Wu Dao’s exposed skin and muscles suddenly tightened and began to vibrate strangely, rising and falling as if breathing, and within a few seconds they burned as red as a cooked prawn.
Invisible to the naked eye, strands of black gas continue to drill out of the pores under the baking oven of human flesh and blood until they evaporate.
Huh…
let out a long breath.
Snap~
Wu Dao’s right foot landed heavily. The absolute clarity of reason in his eyes that was like a god turned into the seven emotions and six desires of a mortal, and his hot and red body gradually returned to normal.
“Huhu~ Wei… Wei is upper body?”
Wu Dao’s voice was weak, and he was hunched over. The huge physical consumption caused by the extreme state caused his chest to rise and fall greatly, and he was panting fiercely.
The mood that had been calm since the time travel was agitated for the first time and changed rapidly after experiencing the strange incident just now.
Surprised, frightened, angry, curious…
until.
Without any warning, information beyond his thoughts suddenly appeared in his mind –
“Jump point +0.1.”
The expression on his face froze, and he closed his eyes slightly to analyze and digest the information in his mind.
moment.
He opened his eyes, his breathing gradually became steady, and a look of surprise appeared on his face: “So that’s it.”
The message appeared in his mind.
The purpose of the attribute panel has been clarified – everything except humanity is abnormal, and it feeds on abnormality, and can leap and transform, infinitely.
Abnormality, jump point…
Wu Dao straightened up and chewed on these two words, convinced that he had just encountered the legendary “strange body” incident in his previous life.
But it seems like the world is so weird!
Shadowless and invisible, not afraid of the scorching sun, the upper body method is not a simple manipulation, but is similar to directly erasing consciousness and seizing the body to occupy the physical body.
This kind of weird and terrifying thing would definitely kill ordinary people if they encountered it. Even if their physiques were at the limit of mortals, they would not have any ability to resist!
The reason why he was able to fight back just now.
The main reason is that the Tianji breathing method hypnotizes the brain and forces oneself into a state of “harmony between man and nature, subduing one’s mind”.
In this state, people’s distracting thoughts are completely eliminated, their consciousness is absolutely clear, and their spirit is highly concentrated. They instinctively eliminate the weird consciousness that invades the brain as inner demons and distracting thoughts.
thus.
The properties panel has just been officially activated.
[Physique: Master (Dacheng)]
[Extraordinary: Stealing Heaven’s Machine Breathing Method (35% Potential Release) +]
[Jump Point: 0.1]
Checking the attribute panel again, the jump point that has not been moved has increased by 0.1 units.
There is also a gray plus sign behind the Daotianji Breathing Technique.
At the same time, a prompt message was also fed back:
the jump points of five units can jump once.
Wu Dao looked at the gray plus sign behind Diantianji’s breathing method, licked his dry lips, and looked at Diyuan with a bit of greed.
