Chapter 1 A New Beginning
The pure blue sky is like a deep and perfect sapphire. Unfortunately, Su Chen, who lives in the sandwich layer, can only meet him in this park half an hour drive away from his home.
In this rare and good environment, Su Chen was playing this set of "Twenty-four chapters" in one move. Although he was only 1.82 meters tall, he would weigh more than 70 kilograms, which was not much better than the thin slim pole at first glance. However, this boxing figure can be considered strong and powerful.
The moves of that punch are simple and heavy, with free steps, and their momentum is like flowing clouds and water, with many changes. The shape is fast but not chaotic, mixed but not panic. It has the strong evil spirit shown by the fighting spirit in ancient military, and the Taoist artistic conception that has been passed down in the Taoist sect for thousands of years, which is really mysterious and very mysterious.
Internal boxing - fighting to kill enemies, practicing to strengthen the body. After Su Chen's entire set of practice, he felt refreshed, his body was already hot, and he had a slight sweat on his forehead. It can be said that some stiff muscles had finally been completely stretched after lying all night.
Su Chen, who had completed a day of morning exercise, looked down at the smart terminal taken out of his pocket. The words 7:15 were clearly shown on the LCD screen. It turned out that an hour had passed, and Su Chen's early exercise came to an end.
He trotted all the way to a public transportation station 500 meters away from the park - according to the time, the floating car would immediately enter the station on time. Once he missed this time, Su Chen had to wait half an hour longer in addition to spending a lot of credit points to take "convenient transportation". No matter which option he was, it was not what he wanted to see.
Including the time he took the elevator for 1 hour, Su Chen returned home and used warm water to spray it in the bathroom. Then he connected his personal terminal for a systemic examination.
Before long, the Intelligent Brain immediately reported: "The master's physiological indicators are normal. Compared with yesterday, the muscle density has increased by 0.01%, and the cell activity has increased by 0.003%. Congratulations to the master's physical fitness for further improvement..."
Breathing the air that had been processed by professional machines in the room - although it was fresh and transparent, without a trace of odor, it gave Su Chen a rather unnatural feeling.
"The effect of this boxing technique is really..." Su Chen shook his head gently and buried the words behind him in his heart: "I thought it was an illusion caused by the imperfect virtual system, but I didn't expect that all this was real. I, Su Chen, had a day when I received the pie in the sky."
If the memory is true, this set of boxing techniques is based on the classical Five Animal Play. The five elements are determined by the five elements, and the five internal organs are forged. The four seasons change and the plants wither and flourish, and breathing and breathing are combined with the rotation of the twenty-four solar terms. It is truly converging outside and abundant inside, and the lower plate and the upper reaches of the sky.
This set of boxing techniques is as sparse and dense as it is, and has endless variations. It can be said that it integrates Taoist health preservation methods into its martial arts, making this boxing technique full of Yin and Yang and Five Elements, and is also compatible with the magic of the Eight Trigrams. Even in this lifeless environment, it can still achieve amazing fitness effects.
This is one of the benefits Su Chen gained from an adventure when he participated in the virtual world deduction. Unfortunately, if the former is still exciting, the next benefit is like adding excessive peppers to the pie, which makes people feel heart-wrenching - Su Chen's daily breathing method has been solidified into a unique breathing method. In his daily routine, he uses this regular and mysterious breathing to discharge garbage from his body while controlling the vibration of the air flow to help him exercise.
Although this is of course a good thing in the end, it feels very bad that everything you care about. Su Chen can only use life like rape, and if you can't resist, then enjoy such fallacies to excuse himself.
If you carefully analyze everything Su Chen encountered, it really seemed like the story in the novel, and it seemed so unreal - he would actually be "taken over" by immortals who were wandering in the world in the virtual world, and he also gained many benefits.
Fortunately, when Su Chen completed the routine investigation after the deduction, he hid this matter deeply in his heart. Otherwise, he would probably be taken away by the official for research as a mental abnormality caused by unknown system defects.
Su Chen, who had dried his body, threw his clothes into the washing machine and went to the canteen in the building to fill in his own Wudian Temple. When he walked into the canteen, Su Chen didn't think much about it, so he pressed his palm on the counter. A menu immediately appeared in the thin screen above.
"Oh! It's this kind of thing again, the taste is exactly the same, I'm really tired of eating it." Su Chen looked at the options in the menu and lamented like this. If it were in the past, he might not have been like this. But after experiencing the baptism of delicacies in the virtual world, he was quite uncomfortable when he returned to reality!
"Xiao Su, just eat some honestly. Who told us to live in a civilian area?" said a fat middle-aged man holding a bowl of sea. "How is it possible to hire a manpower at such a low price? It is said that the residents in the slums and black streets eat a viscous green nutrient solution. In comparison, we are already very good here."
In order to maximize the use of Earth's space, the Earth's cities are divided into multiple levels. Su Chen now lives on the third floor, and is also the middle and lower class who have just escaped poverty. As the bottom floor of the ground building, it is equivalent to the wage-paying people in the old era.
There are slums under their feet, and even the black streets of exile at the bottom. There are no blue sky, white clouds, and no green plants. Under the guidance of the idea of maximizing space utilization, this place is a completely steel jungle. It is said that even the artificial sun appears extremely unreal, and the air is not clean and it is at the lowest level of maintaining physiological hygiene.
Most of the people living in slums are guys who are living with the subsidies of the United Government to die. As for the Black Street, it can be said to be the most chaotic three-regional area in the entire Earth's union - even the suppression of a large number of mechanical police can only isolate them.
It can be said that the government's life-saving subsidy received by the guys living underground is a real life-saving subsidy. Just consuming nutrient solution, there is not much left after three meals a day. If you want to do something else, you have to suppress your desire to take it.
"Yes! I'm certainly better than those below. But Old Song, people are important, and I miss you, right?" Su Chen, who was still hesitating, said with some emotion.
"You usually don't talk as much as you do today, unless you find a way to climb up." When he said this, Lao Song's eyes lit up, "Are you going to take the 5th level job?"
The 8th-level worker system is an important identity level rating criterion for the Earth Union. In addition, there are more difficult scientific research and technician standards. Level 8 workers participate in new products and new equipment research and development. Level 7 workers cannot use special components made by machinery. Level 6 workers are personnel who work for Level 7 workers. Level 4 and Level 5 workers are reserve personnel, ready to fill the vacancies in robots when an accident occurs.
Strictly speaking, Su Chen, a Level 4 worker, now relies on government subsidies to make a living. However, in order to cope with possible risks, the government has some demands for them, so he can enjoy not too bad benefits. As for jobs of Level 3 and below, he can only live underground and not even have the qualification to look up at the sky.
"Yes! I think it should be almost the same. My foundation during my school years is good, but my original hand-brain matching is a little worse. After several years of hard work, I finally made a breakthrough." Su Chen of course did not plan to hide this old neighbor's non-secret topic.
"The benefits of level 5 workers are at least 30% better than level 4 workers! No wonder you think about improving your food. By then, the money for a weekly meal of handmade food in the Gentile District is definitely enough." At this point, Lao Song became more and more excited, "And Xiao Su, you are still young. At this time, you may become a level 8 worker. You will be a real person at that time."
Su Chen felt that he was being pushed a little high by Lao Song, so he shook his head into a rattle: "The talent required by level 8 workers is not much on the earth, so I have no hope. According to my own estimate, level 6 workers are almost my limit. Going up can not be solved by diligence alone."
In fact, if it weren't for this kind of adventure, Su Chen would not even have the capital to move to a level 5 worker. When he was old and weak, it would be unknown whether he could pass the quarterly level 4 worker assessment. Only God knows what level of pension conditions he could enjoy in the end.
"It's good to be able to get to level 6 work! Then you will be qualified to apply for a gentry area to live. It will be easier to start a family in the future. Don't be like your uncle, me!" Old Song's words were filled with many sorrows of those who were incompetent in their hard work.
In this society where the class has almost been solidified, hard work is far from enough. Origin and talent are the key to determining a person's value. Of course, if you work hard, you can survive on the surface as long as your luck is not too bad. If you don't work hard, some women might have the chance to stay on the surface by virtue of their beauty, but men often have to stay underground. Therefore, these men living on the surface were considered to be of ordinary key college students in the old days.
"Don't talk about me for now. After all, no one can tell you this kind of thing before the assessment results come out! Besides, you are not without a chance, uncle." Su Chen said as he ordered a fresh shrimp and fish plate on it, and pressed it with his hand to make the payment.
Then he touched his chin: "And you should have heard of the virtual game "Diala Continent" that has been constantly being promoted on the market recently! The government is preparing to build it into a new resource allocation channel to alleviate the increasingly serious social conflicts. Although this can only be regarded as the leftovers left by the big guys above, it may be an opportunity for us, the reserves with a lot of free time!"
When the Earth Alliance Government was established, it was completed under the negotiations and compromises of the old interest class. Not only did these guys suffer great losses, but their status became more stable. While reducing the original disputes between countries, the unified government also made class solidification more obvious.
Originally, we could also use the development dividends brought by the fourth social division of labor to appease. However, with the delay of time, the population has increased significantly, and more and more jobs can be replaced by smart machinery. Social conflicts under this stagnant water have become increasingly acute.
The game "Diara Continent" is a new attempt by the coalition government to alleviate social conflicts. Su Chen had become a little mouse who openly deduces the world and secretly experiments with safety. Of course, the test of closed memory is not completely unhelpful. Just inheriting this system with bloodlines allows Su Chen to win at the starting line to a certain extent in this game.
"That's a flesh and bone thrown by the man above his head. I wonder how many evil dogs are staring at it! It may not be difficult to get two credit points to improve the food, but it may not be easier to climb up by relying on this to get up! Of course, we guys on the surface still have advantages, unlike those under the ground who have to worry about the safety of life in reality." It is said that people are old and Lao Song has a thorough understanding of this matter!
Just when Su Chen was about to continue saying something, a bowl of fresh shrimp and fish noodles were heard on the conveyor belt. The bowl was really big. Although it was fresh shrimp and fish noodles, there were other vegetables such as vegetables and mushrooms in the noodles to match them to balance. At the same time, it was also equipped with metal spoons and chopsticks that were convenient for disinfection.
At this time, Su Chen took the bowl and sat opposite Lao Song, picked up chopsticks and carried the noodles into his mouth. From then on, a newcomer came to the canteen, as if he was a little girl upstairs. The full breath of youth made Su Chen's eyes float there involuntarily.
The girl always has a keen perception in this aspect. After a few seconds, the other party suddenly turned his head and opened his apricot and glared at Su Chen. In reality, Su Chen, who was not thick enough, could only lower his head and continue eating noodles.
Pingliang said that the noodles are fragrant and refreshing, and full of chewyness. The two prawns weighed two taels after being shelled. The soup was rich and warm, and it was extremely delicious after being eaten. According to some of the memories that were extra out of thin air, this was already considered as the standard of a famous restaurant in the old era.
Unfortunately, although this noodles are delicious, they are made of computer-controlled machinery. No matter when you eat them, the taste is exactly the same. Even if you eat them every day, you will be bored.
After a few years of freshness, I feel bored to eat seafood every day. After all, as the space on land becomes less and less, humans turn their production bases to a wider ocean. With the development of technology, marine breeding has become more efficient. Now, most of the expensive seafood in the old era has become civilian food, while the originally cheap poultry and livestock meat have become luxury goods.
