After Qian Bing shared half of Ma Hongjun's stones, his own weight reached [-] kilograms, just like Tang San and Dai Mubai.
Suddenly, I felt a heavy weight behind me, and every step I took carried a huge burden.
And Xu Lei also walked to Zhu Zhuqing's side.
Although Zhu Zhuqing didn't say it, it was obvious that he was physically exhausted.
But Xu Lei has the best physical strength among everyone today.
"I'll help you."
With that said, Xu Lei reached out and reached towards the bamboo basket behind Zhu Zhuqing.
Zhu Zhuqing originally wanted to refuse, but Xu Lei moved quickly and took away a stone from her bamboo basket.
At this time, even the cold Zhu Zhuqing felt a little warmed by this united group.
The journey continues. This time, everyone will slow down the forward speed again, and the ninth and tenth round trip will continue.
By the time most people reached their tenth round trip, their physical strength reached rock bottom and they felt that they couldn't run anymore. They could only move their steps and move forward step by step.
In this circle, Oscar, Ma Hongjun and even Ning Rongrong consciously put the stones behind them back into their bamboo baskets.
Because they all realized that their punishment was indeed coming to an end, but Tang San and Dai Mubai were two more laps ahead of them.
In Yu Xiaogang's simple first class, everyone's feelings seemed to have warmed up a lot, and they began to take the initiative to think about others.
But in the last three kilometers, Ning Rongrong, who was exhausted, finally collapsed, followed closely by Oscar.
It is not easy for the two auxiliary soul masters to persist here.
Qian Bing and Tang San could only share their stones with others and carry them on their backs to continue moving forward.
In the last two kilometers, Zhu Zhuqing, who had been muttering all the time, also fainted. Dai Mubai reluctantly picked her up and staggered forward.
"Come on... come on, brothers, hold on!"
When there were less than 500 meters away from the finish line, Qian Bing, Tang San, and Dai Mubai were already carrying bamboo baskets on their chests and carrying the unconscious three people on their backs.
Xu Lei shouldered the biggest burden, Xiao Wu also shared a lot, and Ma Hongjun's face was as pale as paper, swaying with each step.
They were almost moving toward the finish line.
"Put me down, let me down..."
At this time, Ning Rongrong's weak voice sounded behind Qian Bing.
Qian Bing's two martial arts spirits actually didn't have that obvious effect on increasing his physical fitness. He was already on the verge of running out of energy after being able to persist until now.
Hearing Ning Rongrong's words, he staggered and almost fell to the ground, while Ning Rongrong also slipped off his back.
Ning Rongrong was unconscious for a short while, but finally regained some strength. She quickly grabbed the clothes on Qian Bing's back to avoid his tragic fall.
Immediately, the two supported each other and walked step by step towards the gate of the college.
If the person being punished was a person, with Ning Rongrong's physical strength, he might not be able to hold on long ago.
But those who were punished were nine people, a small group. With everyone's mutual support and help, the persistence and potential in their hearts were fully stimulated.
The scenery in the sight of the few people who were still awake was blurry, and they could only vaguely see the end point.
Their bodies now rely solely on the support of willpower to continue moving forward.
400 meters...300 meters...200 meters...100 meters...
Yu Xiaogang's stiff face appeared in front of everyone. Seeing them supporting each other and moving forward together, even he, the instigator, couldn't help but be moved.
This last round trip took the nine people a full hour.
However, they finally insisted on coming back.
puff, puff...
As soon as they reached the finish line, nine people almost fell to the ground one after another. Ning Rongrong, Ma Hongjun, and Zhu Zhuqing's hearts loosened and they fainted at the same time.
Dai Mubai fell next to Zhu Zhuqing, panting heavily, his whole body trembling slightly.
The scorpion braid on Xiao Wu's head has become messy, sweat is dripping, and her red lips are buzzing.
Tang San struggled to get up and carried the unconscious Ma Hongjun and Oscar aside.
After Qian Bing settled Ning Rongrong, he put down his bamboo basket and went to help Tang San and Dai Mu take out the excess weight in their bamboo baskets.
He looked at Dai Mubai, who was on the verge of collapse, relying entirely on his strong consciousness to keep himself from fainting.
For others, the punishment, or training, is over.
But for Dai Mubai and Tang San, not yet.
Tang San and Dai Mubai took a short rest, drank two more glasses of warm water handed over by Qian Bing, then held on to the table with the buckets on their backs, and reluctantly moved forward step by step with fifteen kilograms of stones on their backs.
Although they no longer have to share the burden of others, their steps at this time can only be described as staggering.
"Brother, I will accompany you."
Xiao Wu also stood up while holding on to the table. However, she only took one step and she fell to the ground.
Although her physical condition was much better than that of Ma Hongjun and Zhu Zhuqing, she had carried a large number of stones from others and walked a long distance before, so now she had also reached her limit.
Xu Lei also wanted to struggle to stand up, but he was the one who carried the most weight in the second half of the journey, and he couldn't walk at all at this time.
"You guys should rest, I'll stay with Xiaosan and the others."
Seeing this, Qian Bing stood up and also shouldered his own burden, staggering after Tang San and Dai Mubai. Since he wanted to be the captain, he naturally couldn't be timid at this time.
The three of them looked at each other, and a strange-looking smile appeared on their pale faces. There was an emotion that only "true brothers" would understand.
On the way back, the two people who had suffered the most during the entire "punishment" process finally followed in the footsteps of their other companions and fell to the ground one after another.
On the contrary, Qian Bing, whose physique was inferior to them, did not bear the burden for the others until the second half, dragging their bodies all the way to the end before passing out.
Yu Xiaogang watched them fall one after another, but never moved.
It wasn't until he saw Qian Bing fall down, almost all nine of them fell into coma due to exhaustion, that a faint smile appeared on his face.
"Don't abandon, don't give up, this is the spirit of the group, it's good."
Flanders, Zhao Wuji and several other teachers quietly appeared next to Yu Xiaogang, looking at the unconscious people with some distress.
"Master, you are also very good and ruthless enough."
Yu Xiaogang ignored the dissatisfaction in Flanders' words, waved his hand and said:
"Why don't you take them back to rest quickly?"
Including Yu Xiaogang himself, the teachers hurriedly stepped forward to unload the bamboo baskets on the nine people, and carried them towards the academy.
……
When Qian Bing woke up from his coma, he found that he was already in the dormitory. The warm feeling spread into his body from all directions, and the warm comfort almost made him groan.
After calming down, he found that he was naked and soaking in a large wooden barrel, which was filled with brown liquid.
Xu Lei was also on the other side, still sleeping deeply in the barrel.
Because there were two more large wooden barrels in the dormitory, it seemed crowded.
Qian Bing stirred the liquid in front of him casually, and the not too strong smell of medicine entered his nostrils. His nose moved, and he suddenly understood something in his heart.
Although he is not proficient in pharmacology, he knows that the medicinal materials in this world have many similarities with those in his previous life.
The liquid in this vat was obviously boiled with some medicinal materials, and the functions of these medicinal materials are mainly to relax the muscles, activate blood circulation and strengthen the body.
Therefore, after such intense consumption, I didn't feel much pain when I woke up.
Only my legs are slightly sore and my body is a little weak.
Qian Bing even guessed that in order to maintain the water temperature in the bucket, Yu Xiaogang would add some hot water to their bucket every certain period of time.
At this time, he saw a note taped next to the barrel with Yu Xiaogang's handwriting on it.
"When you wake up, go to the cafeteria to eat."
When he saw the word "eat", Qian Bing suddenly felt his stomach growl, and a strong sense of hunger suddenly surged up.
He quickly stood up from the water and found that there were two other smaller barrels beside the two large barrels.
There was water inside, obviously for them to rinse their bodies.
The water was not warm. Qian Bing couldn't help but shiver when he soaked in it. He suddenly felt refreshed and the soreness all over his body gradually disappeared.
After hurriedly washing the liquid on his body and changing into clean clothes, he walked out of the dormitory.
I was surprised to find that the sky was filled with stars outside. In the quiet night, insects and birds chirped occasionally, giving people a sense of tranquility.
He stretched his body vigorously, and his bones made a series of crackling sounds, as if his whole body had been stretched.
After taking two deep breaths of fresh air to replace the stale air in his body, he strode towards the canteen.
From a distance, Qian Bing saw the lights in the cafeteria were on, and when he walked into the cafeteria, he found a man sitting there eating happily.
Hearing the footsteps, the man who was eating and drinking turned around and looked at the mistress. It was Dai Mubai.
Perhaps it was the reason why his soul power was the highest, so he woke up a little earlier.
"Qian Bing, come and eat. This food tastes really good."
Dai Mubai's evil eyes had completely returned to normal, and when he saw Qian Bing, he immediately smiled.
They have experienced the joys and sorrows of this time, and the feeling of sympathy for each other does not need to be expressed in words. When they look at each other, they can already feel each other's friendship.
Qian Bing walked over to Dai Mubai and sat down. There were eight pieces of food on the table in the cafeteria, which were obviously prepared by Yu Xiaogang for him and others.
The dinner was very sumptuous, a large bowl of fragrant stewed meat, five large white steamed buns, a bowl of thick soup, a plate of vegetables and a few fruits.
There was also a note on the table, also in Yu Xiaogang's handwriting.
"After eating, wash the dishes. Empty the water in the bucket in the room and clean it.
They are not allowed to sleep, practice soul power before dawn, and gather for class early in the morning. "
The protest from his stomach made Qian Bing unable to speak to Dai Mubai, and he immediately swept away all the food in front of him like a whirlwind.
After a lot of physical exertion, the supplement of food seems to make people feel that the body is absorbing the nutrients quickly.
Dai Mubai had already finished eating while Tang San was enjoying his meal. He leaned on the table and looked at him. After he finished eating, he said:
"Qian Bing, this master is quite ruthless, this training is much more intense than Dean Flanders before.
Judging from the meaning of his message, I'm afraid our lives will be difficult in the future. When you were in the Junior Soul Master Academy, was this the way he taught you? "
Qian Bing shook his head and said:
"No, he only occasionally took over as a substitute teacher before. What he taught us was some theoretical knowledge. This is the first time I have encountered such training.
However, I believe that since the dean and the others admire the master so much, he will have no problem with our training direction.
As a soul master, the body is the foundation. Without a strong body, you cannot absorb powerful soul rings.
What he started for us today was basic training to enhance our physical fitness. "
Dai Mubai smiled bitterly and said:
"This is not a simple basic training, the master's training for us is completely arranged according to everyone's limits.
If we hadn't been in good health, we might have had to lie down for several days before we could get up this time.
But that barrel of strange liquid seems to have a certain effect. "
Qian Bing was telling him his guess about the medicinal bath. At this time, Tang San's figure walked into the cafeteria. He must have just heard Dai Mubai's words and said:
"I think it's a medicated bath. It contains a lot of strengthening medicines, which can help us quickly recover our physical strength and at the same time promote our physical fitness."
"Oh?"
"Mistress, you're here, come and eat."
Dai Mubai's doubts and Qian Bing's greeting sounded at the same time.
When Dai Mubai heard Tang San's hungry grumbles, he temporarily suppressed the curiosity in his heart and did not continue to ask.
When he was almost done eating, a figure ran in from outside in a hurry.
He didn't even bother to say hello to Qian Bing and the others, and just pounced on the food on the table.
"I'm starving, where's the food?"
It was Xiao Wu who came, and looking at her rosy little face, Tang San suddenly showed a smile.
Apparently, Xiao Wu has also recovered from the extreme exhaustion.
While she was eating, she also saw the note on the table, and at the same time made a few gestures to Tang San, meaning that she would wait until she finished eating first.
After waking up from his drowsiness and eating, Qian Bing felt that his body was too lazy to move at all.
He imitated Dai Mubai's movements and leaned on the table, watching Tang San and Xiao Wu eat the food in front of them without any image.
The food given to the girls was the same as theirs except for two steamed buns.
Although Xiao Wu's mouth is not big, she can eat without hesitation. In a short time, she has eaten every bit of the food in front of her.
Immediately afterwards, Oscar and Xu Lei arrived almost at the same time, followed by Zhu Zhuqing, Ma Hongjun and Ning Rongrong.
This order basically reflects everyone's soul power level and physical fitness.
Obviously, Xu Lei's physical fitness is the best among the others.
If Oscar hadn't already broken through to Zunhun, Xu Lei would have been the first to arrive among them.
