Chapter 1 An Inescapable Life


The after-effects of Wednesday's fat beating in the Iron Thorn Arena only slowly began to show on Thursday morning.

After being beaten up yesterday, Zhang Tie still had the interest to take a comfortable hot shower in the staff bathroom of the war hall before returning home.

There were some bruises on his body, but fortunately, there was nothing wrong with his face, so Zhang Tie didn't have to worry about what his father and mother would find.

After eating, after chatting with his parents and future sister-in-law for a while, Zhang Tiecai secretly took two sweet potatoes and a handful of soybeans from the kitchen after washing up and returned to his nest.

Next to the corn field and potato field that had sprouted, Zhang Tie quietly buried two sweet potatoes in the soil and planted a row of soybeans like corn.

Sweet potatoes should wait for a little more branches to draw a little more and then divide the pit, like planting potatoes, the teachers in this school have talked about it, and those soybeans, the planting method is similar to corn, poke a hole with a steel bar, and bury it.

The aura value of the Black Iron Castle continued to increase, and it had exceeded 13, except for the corn that was germinating one after another, just on Wednesday, Zhang Tie found that the grass seeds given by Mother Teresa that he had randomly scattered on the ground also seemed to have sprouted.

On the ground where he had sown grass seeds, a green shoot emerged from the soil.

There was still a little more than a day before the first leak-free fruit ripened, and on another branch of the small tree, another small silver fruit was hung out, Zhang Tie reached out to check, and found that the ripening progress bar of the iron fetal fruit had reached a little more than a quarter, and it seemed that the same fat fruit was almost ripe if it was beaten four or five times.

No leakage fruit iron fetal fruit heyhehehehe After completing the established cultivation, Zhang Tie muttered these two names and fell asleep Thursday morning, when Zhang Tie's biological clock woke Zhang Tie up from his deep sleep at a quarter past six o'clock, he just wanted to turn over and get out of bed, Zhang Tie's face turned white, and then a fine bead of sweat appeared on his forehead, that kind of feeling, just a word hurts all over the body hurts everywhere Everywhere I was beaten yesterday, especially the two hands I used to defend and block, it hurt like a break, this kind of piercing pain, on the one hand, comes from the natural reaction of the body after a period of time after being hit by an external force, The other side seemed to have exercised too much yesterday, and his muscles began to swell up with a vengeance after a night's rest, and when these two pains were combined, Zhang Tie suffered.

Almost grinning in the cold air with bared teeth, Zhang Tie slowly put on his clothes, at this time, the movement was a little bigger, and it hurt to do it.

Only then did Zhang Tie understand that yesterday's fat beating was not so easy to suffer, and this iron fetal fruit was not so easy to eat.

From getting up to school, Zhang Tie spent twice as much time as usual on Thursday, and the whole person was performing slow motion, no matter how he moved, the movement was slightly bigger, and Zhang Tie felt a burst of pain.

When Zhang Tie came to the school, he saw the majestic one-eyed dragon standing at the school gate, beating an iron rod in the palm of his hand.

One by one, the cattle who came to school walked in with their heads bowed like quails, from the door farthest from the one-eyed dragon.

"Boy, I heard yesterday that you did a good job, you didn't embarrass me" Zhang Tie hadn't greeted Captain Colin yet, but he didn't expect Captain Colin to praise him first after seeing him.

Zhang Tie pulled the muscles on his face and smiled, looking a little shy, at this time, in fact, even Zhang Tie didn't know whether he should be grateful or hate this one-eyed dragon.

When I came to the classroom, I found that many animals in the classroom were talking about it, and the livestock were not talking about today's desks and chairs, but that there were animals in the same class this morning who were "ambushed" in the classroom of another class next to the classroom in the morning, and wanted to see which "DSB" came early every morning to wipe the tables and chairs in their own class, still didn't see the mysterious figure who wiped the table and chairs appeared, so their plan to break the news completely failed.

Damn, it seems that it is better to keep a low profile in doing good deeds in the future, Zhang Tie secretly thought, the curiosity of the animals in the same class is too strong, and this path to earn merit points will not work.

Maybe it's because of being a thief, Zhang Tie, who got the Black Iron Castle, doesn't really want to be a topic of conversation in the school and class, a student who originally performed mediocre suddenly became keen to do good things, which is also a little too strange.

Although it is difficult for someone to associate Zhang Tie's good deeds with such an illusory merit value, according to Zhang Tie's always cautious attitude, it is not wrong to keep a low profile when he has something good.

The morning class was still the same as usual, there was not much worth mentioning, everything went according to plan, maybe it was because Zhang Tie and they all had to leave the school forever in two weeks, the teachers taught less and less theoretical things in the class, and more and more empirical things, and sometimes the students were completely re-sharing the life experiences and insights of the teachers.

Next month, according to the practice of all schools in Black Flame City, from June 1st to July 31st, all graduating students in Black Flame City will have a two-month wilderness survival class, which is a big review of the knowledge and abilities that all students have learned over the years, and there are no exams in the school, because this era will eliminate all those who are not fit to survive.

Every year, there is a certain casualty rate in the wilderness survival class of the graduates of Heiyan City, in the last year, 5 students were eliminated in the wilderness survival class of the graduates of the 7th National Boys' High School in Heiyan City, four died, and one was disabled, and I heard that the most ferocious year in history The 7th National Boys' High School eliminated more than 20 students in the one-month wilderness survival class, for all the livestock in the graduating class, this month's wilderness survival class is a coming-of-age ceremony for everyone in this era A coming-of-age ceremony that needs to be greeted with blood and even life, a coming-of-age ceremony that has escaped the protection of the tall walls of Black Flame City and faced the truest side of this era.

After two months of survival lessons, everyone's entire school days are almost over, and then there are three months of vacation, after which most people's restless adolescence is greeted by a long military service.

During that three-month vacation, that is, before the official military service notice was issued, after obtaining the recommended places of the school, a few lucky people with outstanding talents had the opportunity to ascend to the sky in one step, study in a more advanced place, and directly become the elites of the times cultivated by many big forces and organizations, and the coordinates of many people's lives were fixed.

The time of military service is the same as the time of compulsory education, one is a right, the other is an obligation, this is reciprocal, no one has any objection, and after eight years, when ordinary people end their military service, they will find that they have stood on two completely different stages of life with those who have had the opportunity to receive a better education, those former classmates.

After the four classes in the morning, the cattle of the graduating class flocked to the cafeteria again, and naturally, when everyone was lining up to receive the dinner plates, Grace and a few others, who were late every day, swaggered in, and stood at the front of the line after driving away a few unlucky and silent guys.

Looking at the performance of Grace and these people in the past few days, Zhang Tie often asks himself the question that if this unfortunate thing happens to him one day, what should he do, he has a vague answer in his heart, but every time he queues up for dinner, he will deliberately choose to be in the middle and back of the line, and try to avoid the coming of the choice he wants to make, which is not an easy choice for a 15-year-old boy.

During the meal, Barry, the dead fat man, told Zhang Tie that next week he would let Zhang Tie complete another rite of passage in his life.

"From now on, all the brothers of our Brotherhood of Airplanes have lost their virgin hats," the Brotherhood of Airplanes laughed lewdly at the dinner table as they listened to Barry's great declaration.

To be honest, although yesterday Zhang Tie was still fantasizing about the future "good life" and "vigorous love" with Goddess Dinah, after Barry announced that he would complete his "coming-of-age ceremony" next week, Zhang Tie's heart still jumped up, and there was a faint desire, in which the desire was transformed into an image imagined in his mind, and after the image was finally transformed into a small tent held high on Zhang Tie's pants, Zhang Tie had to admit that he was also a member of the army of livestock in the school.

Not much more advanced than the rest of the Brotherhood of Airplanes.

But his love for Teacher Dinah is still sacred, and Zhang Tie comforted himself.

The second half of the dinner table, is the plane brotherhood of various livestock to Zhang Tie's tent all kinds of ridicule, sarcasm and blows, these guys, Zhang Tie has been completely immune, after dinner, the cattle have to go to the classroom to play cards, that is their noon entertainment, and Zhang Tie went to the canteen next to the grove to find a place to sit down, practicing Zhu Xin Arithmetic, according to the requirements of the book, Zhu Xin Shen Arithmetic The first step of Xiaocheng's requirement is to be able to complete the visualization of the three-gear abacus in an instant, Then, in an instant, you can use the abacus in your mind to get the result of any four operations within three digits.

Zhang Tie is now far from the requirements of the first step of the Zhuxin Divine Arithmetic represented by these two "moments", there is still a distance to go, the visualization completion time of the three-gear abacus Zhang Tie has been able to compress it within 15 seconds, and the four operation results within the three digits Zhang Tie still has a delay of more than 4 seconds, and then thinking of the words on the cover of the book that is an extracurricular tutoring book for primary school students, Zhang Tie couldn't help but feel embarrassed, this seems to be the ability that primary school students should master, and he has been tossing for so many days or this level, ashamed Just when Zhang Tie felt ashamed, as if someone wanted to make him more ashamed, one of Grace's followers appeared in front of Zhang Tie, and when Zhang Tie wondered why this guy was standing in front of him, the slightly gloomy guy threw the stack of dinner plates he was holding on the grass at Zhang Tie's feet with a "snap".

"Wash these plates and hand them over to the cafeteria", the guy dropped the plates, turned around and left without even looking at Zhang Tie, as if he never thought that this unattractive guy sitting against a tree would refuse.

Looking at the four messy dinner plates in front of his feet, Zhang Tie scratched his head, and found that in life, there are some difficult choices that you can't avoid if you want to Strive for another chapter in the evening, thank you all for your support:
