Chapter 2 Home
There is a building with a dilapidated appearance in the south of Yangzhou City, Jiangnan Base City, with a more than thirty-story building standing on the side of the city.
On the narrow stairs, there are debris from residents' homes piled up on the side, squeezing the already narrow corridor. People who go up and down the stairs need to avoid them when they walk.
The summer solstice is rushing on the stairs, avoiding the debris blocking the road from time to time.
An expensive configuration such as an elevator will not appear in low-rent housing in such cities. It is a facility that only exists in the residential buildings where middle-class or above live.
In this world attacked by monsters, a large number of people gather in each base city, and every inch of land is the current reality.
According to the contribution to the country and the city, different people enjoy different treatments.
Lower-level workers can only live in such low-rent housing, and families with middle-class income or above can live in better communities and enjoy better environmental benefits.
The best villa is something that only warriors can enjoy.
Because warriors fight against monsters and defend the city, there is a safe base city now.
The warrior has a strong fighting power. He goes out of the city to fight monsters. He gets the monster's corpse materials and can sell them to the country and various organizations to get generous rewards.
Ordinary families can live well if they earn more than 100,000 yuan a year, while warriors may get rewards for hunting a monster for millions, even tens of millions, or even more.
Therefore, in this world, warriors have a very high status, enjoy countless privileges, and are respected by ordinary people.
As long as you become a warrior, you can get a gift to live in a villa, which is just one of the countless privileges.
Ordinary people in villas don’t have to think about it anymore, they can only squeeze into the low-rent housing provided by the government and run around for survival every day.
The summer solstice is brisk and is walking easily among the debris on the stairs.
"Xiaozhi is back." Neighbors greeted him from time to time. "Why are the clothes so dirty?"
"It's okay, Aunt Liu. I practiced in the martial arts hall today."
"Go home quickly. Your grandfather has been back long ago. I'll wait for you to come back for dinner."
On the 27th floor, open the door and walk into this home. Xia Zhi looked at everything in the house.
In the room of more than 30 square meters, the living room simply placed a table and a few chairs. There were also some small electrical appliances piled up against the wall. They were all collected by my grandfather and I was reluctant to sell them. I could still use them after repairing them.
A few dishes were already placed on the table, covered with a cage.
Hearing the sound of the door opening, an old man with gray hair came out of the room inside. His shirt with several small holes was washed clean. The sleeves on his left arm were empty, and it turned out to be a one-armed old man.
"I'm back. So late today?" the old man said to Xia Zhi.
"Next week will be a quasi-warrior assessment. Today I will go to practice with a few senior brothers."
"Go and wash first, change your clothes, let's have a meal first." The old man said.
After a simple but sumptuous dinner, Xia Zhi said to his grandfather who was sitting there drinking tea: "Grandpa, my physical fitness is close to the standard of a quasi-martial artsman. I will train aggressively these days. I don't have to wait for me to eat at night. I'll eat in the martial arts hall these days."
"Are you sure this time?" The old man asked after hearing what Xia Zhi said.
"Our instructor said it's almost the same. I'll do it again in the next few days. When I become a warrior, we can move out here. Grandpa, you don't have to go out to work hard anymore. In the future, just raise flowers at home and play chess."
"Okay, okay. Grandpa is looking forward to the assessment. The assessment will definitely be successful." The old man said with a smile, "Don't worry about grandpa, I'm not old yet. I also want to see you become a strong man and kill all the monsters!"
"Grandpa, don't worry, I'll go to practice first, you can rest early." Xia Zhi finished speaking, and walked upstairs.
The rooftop rooftop and flat concrete floor have cleared a space of nearly 100 square meters. This is the place where you usually practice martial arts in the summer solstice.
At this time, Xia Zhe was standing on the edge of the rooftop, and a few rays of cold light flashed in front of you from time to time, moving rapidly to bring a sound of breaking through the air.
After a while, the cold light stopped in the air in front of me. It turned out to be two flying knives. The metal-like flying knives shone coldly under the moonlight.
"Is this the power of a spiritual mind master? So strong. Controlling two flying knives at the same time is my limit now. How can a warrior of the same level defend against the attack of a flying knives that can freely change angles and directions?" Xia Zhi looked at the flying knives in front of him, as if he could see what might happen in the battle.
"It is not possible for people to know that I am a spiritual master and I must have the ability to protect myself. When Luo Feng woke up, he only had one dark gold ball. I had one more than him and had greater potential. In addition, the Supreme Body Refining Skill obtained by the nine-story pagoda, I must stand at the peak of the universe in the future and break the cycle of reincarnation."
After Xia Zhi inherited the original owner's memory, he discovered that the world he was reborn was actually the world in a novel he had read in his previous life.
After reading the original work, I knew that this was a very grand background and a vast starry sky in the universe, and he was full of longing for the future.
"The Supreme Body Refining Skill is mainly about practicing the body, and is the supreme foundation-building method of cultivation. It is divided into three levels, the first layer of refining tendons, the second layer of refining bones, and the third layer of refining blood. The three levels correspond to the warrior level, warrior level, and war god level of this cosmic power system. If you practice perfectly, you can break through to another level."
"There is still one week before the quasi-warrior assessment. I want to practice the first level of gluten refining. Li Wei, don't you want me to participate in the assessment? Not only do I have to participate, but I also have to make a big splash! Only geniuses can get more resources and rise quickly. You will know who is the garbage."
The summer solstice opened its posture, followed the information of the first level of the Taishang Body Refining Decision, and took postures, using a unique breathing method. The originally gentle and peaceful cosmic energy suddenly started to stir up and rushed towards the Xia solstice's body.
The pores of the whole body seem to have been opened. The cells that were saturated before could no longer absorb energy. Under the powerful effect of the Taishang Body Refining Skill, a feast of strength improvement began again. The cells accelerated their evolution, and the sounds of bowstrings sounded from time to time came from inside the body.
That is the sound made by the large tendons in the body moisturized by energy, stimulated by body refining and strengthened by trembling.
Collapse, collapse, collapse.
Amid these sounds, the body of the summer solstice continues to strengthen.
······
A week passed in a flash!
Early that morning, Grandpa Xia Zhi went out very early, holding a stack of sacks in one hand and walking down the stairs.
"Good morning, Old Xia. He went out so early."
"Does your family go for an assessment today?"
"I heard that your family, Xiao Zhi, will be a warrior after passing the assessment today. Lao Xia, you will enjoy the future."
From time to time, neighbors who got up early to work greeted Grandpa Xia Zhi from time to time.
When Xia Zhi was very young, his grandfather brought him here and he had one arm. The neighbors had been around for a long time, and those who knew Xia Zhi called him Lao Xiatou directly. After a long time, when it comes to Xia Zhi, people only know that Lao Xiatou was Lao Xiatou, but no one knows his original name "Xia Dahai".
"Yes, I'll go out for a walk. Xiaozhong will go to take the assessment today." Xia Dahai responded to the greetings of his neighbors.
"Old Xia, you are so old, you have worked hard all your life and it's time to take a break." A neighbor sighed at his gray hair.
"It's not that old people can't move anymore, I can't drag down the child." Xia Dahai shook his head, said hello to his neighbors, went downstairs to push his tricycle, threw his pockets behind the car, rode on the outside of the super community, and drove away from the loudspeaker "I've collected scraps, I've collected scraps" came from afar.
In the bedroom, Xia Zhi, who was sitting cross-legged on the bed, heard the sound of his grandfather going out to go downstairs and opened his eyes.
"Today is the quasi-warrior assessment. After I practiced the first level of the Taishang Body Refining Decision, I could feel that my strength was improving almost every moment. The spiritual mind master just woke up was a rapid stage of the explosion of strength. This assessment was not difficult for me."
You can feel the improvement of your own strength at any time, and this speed of improvement is simply unparalleled.
Remembering the scene in the last memory of the original owner, his hands clenched into fists.
