Castle of Black Iron

Chapter 4 Breaking Through the Limits

The collection point of Wild Wolf Castle is at the foot of a relatively gentle hillside to the south of Wild Wolf Castle. There is a railway track several hundred meters long, which is laid down from the mountain. There is a steam engine in the yard, and the power of the steam engine is provided to a winch, which is connected with a circle of steel cables as thick as a baby's arm from the top of the mountain to the bottom of the mountain. Just pull the mine cart up along the rails. This section of rails and the steam engine have greatly improved the efficiency of bringing the ore to Wild Wolf Castle. If there is no such thing, Zhang Tie really doubts whether anyone is willing to mine. Walking more than a mile in the mine to carry the ore here, and then climbing the mountain again with the ore on the back, it is really not a job that humans can do.

But even if those people can do the work, for different people, you can also try some challenges of different difficulty.

At noon, the sun after hiding for a day started to become hot again, and the temperature in the Wild Wolf Valley began to rise gradually again. Because of the rain yesterday, everywhere in the valley was relatively humid, and the rising temperature brought The water vapor evaporated from the ground, and the entire valley turned into a big steamer in a blink of an eye, making people feel a little flustered with stuffiness.

In such a temperature, it is also a huge test for Zhang Tie to complete a 1.5-kilometer journey with a 100-kg mining basket on his back. Along the way, Zhang Tie gritted his teeth, sweating profusely, feeling as if his shoulders were about to be rubbed It is as if smoking, and it takes a rest every two to three hundred meters on average. In the end, when Zhang Tie bangs and puts the mining basket on the platform scale at the delivery point, the difference brought by the different weight The sound effect made the boys at the mining point couldn't help but look at the number on the scale.

118 kg!

"Brother, not bad, these days you are the first one to carry a hundred kilograms of ore for delivery, it seems that you are really born to do this!" At this moment, Zhang Tie was so tired that he just wanted to lie on the ground After resting for half an hour, when I heard such a "comment", I just rolled my eyes helplessly. I didn't care whether the words this guy said were complimenting me or hurting me. The boy who spoke took out a I came to the notebook, looked at the records on the platform scale, and then looked at the quality of the ore in the mine basket, and then began to record in the notebook.

"Even with this basket... how many kilograms of ore did I carry in total today?" Zhang Tie asked after panting for a long time.

"If you connect this time, let me take a look..." The boy holding the notebook looked down at the records on the notebook, "Your name is Zhang Tie, right? The first time this morning was 76 kilograms, the second time was 78 kilograms, and the second time was 78 kilograms. 69 kg three times, 118 kg this time, let me do the math..."

"337 kilograms..." The boy reported the amount of ore that Zhang Tie had memorized several times. Zhang Tie's heart moved, and the abacus of level 7 appeared in his mind instantly, almost after the man had just reported the third time. At the time of the goal, Zhang Tie already knew the result, and then he said the result.

The boy calculated with a pen, and found that the number he got was the same as what Zhang Tie blurted out. He couldn't help but look at Zhang Tie in a little surprise, but didn't think much about it.

"Well, it's exactly 337 kilograms. This is our highest record in the past few days. You didn't come two days ago, and today is the third day. This amount just meets the requirements..."

"Is there any reward for the highest record?" Zhang Tie asked with a salivating face.

"Yes, I have!"

"what?"

"So that you can continue to work on this promising career..."

Hearing this answer, Zhang Tie's face darkened slightly, and then he laughed. Unexpectedly, this guy was quite humorous.

Watching the guys at the ore collection point pour their ore into the mine cart, casually spake a few words with the guys here, and rested for a while, according to the amount of ore dug by Zhang Tie,

Zhang Tie received another seven taels of dry rations, and then Zhang Tie took the dry rations and the ugly mining basket on his back, climbed up the mountain, and came to the small square of Wild Wolf Castle.

After unloading the burden of one hundred kilograms, after a period of rest, Zhang Tie gradually recovered his physical strength and found that his foot strength was unprecedentedly brisk. This time he successfully challenged his limit once again. Among the unlucky guys After creating a small record, Zhang Tie was in a good mood, slightly proud of himself. It seems that that guy Tang De said well, people are forced out - this is a joke that can only be understood in the language and characters of the Chinese.

The small square after a day's rest became more lively. Compared with the bare and simple appearance when we first came here, these days have passed, and some simple trading booths with shade have been set up on this small square. Some girls are here The stalls sold and exchanged the wild fruits and vegetables they picked, while on the other side of the square, the team of boys who came here every day to show off their "muscles" and their prey still huddled together noisily, shouting to the girls around them from time to time. Talking about chatting, in the past few days, more and more girls have begun to try to form a fixed trial team with boys. Both boys and girls, after getting to know each other for a period of time, both sides have become more courageous.

"Do you need wild blueberries and hawthorn fruit?" A voice from the booth next to it attracted Zhang Tie's attention. When Zhang Tie turned around, he saw a boy shaking his head and walking away. There was a slight look of disappointment on the girl's face, her hands were holding her feet, and she was sitting on the ground. In front of the girl, there was a lotus leaf with a small pile on it, which weighed less than half a catty. Heavy wild blueberries and hawthorn berries were piled timidly there, and that small pile of blueberries and hawthorn berries was just like their current owner, with a slightly jerky feeling. Although it was clean, it was very ordinary, inconspicuous, and not at all hooked. I can't afford the "appetite" of the animals.

Because Zhang Tie remembered that blueberry and hawthorn seeds had not been sown in the space of Black Iron Castle, Zhang Tie walked over and squatted down in front of that poor girl's stall, "How do you change these things?"

Zhang Tie's voice made the disappointed girl raise her head from her knees again. The girl's face can only be described as delicate, her figure is very flat, and there are some freckles on her face, which is incomparable to the shining beauties around her. Clumsy, like an ugly duckling, but the girl's blue eyes gave Zhang Tie the feeling of seeing a clear stream.

"These wild blueberries and hawthorn fruits only need half a catty...well, four taels of dry food can be exchanged, and meat can be eaten in two taels..." Feeling Zhang Tie's eyes slightly sweeping over her body, the girl sat on the ground She bent down a little more, hiding her breasts behind her knees.

Gululu, the protest of hunger in the girl's stomach clearly reached Zhang Tie's ears, and the girl lowered her head in embarrassment.

"Okay, I'll take all of these..." Zhang Tie took out a piece of dry food weighing half a kilogram from his carry-on food box, thought for a while, and put a small piece of beef jerky about one or two pounds on the dry food .

"This...these...these are too many foods!" The girl was surprised, and she looked at Zhang Tie unblinkingly with a pair of beautiful blue eyes, as if she wanted to find something on Zhang Tie's face.

"Hmm... I'm a believer in the Guardian God sect, um... I want to collect some plant seeds during this trial, but look at me, I'm digging now, and I don't have time to do it , if it is convenient for you to pick wild fruits in the future, if it is not dangerous, you can help me collect some seeds by the way, no matter what kind of plant it is, I will exchange it with you for food, the extra will count It's a deposit!" Zhang Tie said half-truthfully.

"Really?" There was light in the girl's eyes.

Zhang Tie smiled, put away the two piles of slightly green fruits that the girl put on the ground, and then pushed his food in front of the girl. Zhang Tie's actions were more convincing than anything else. He grabbed the food that was pushed in front of him tightly, for fear that Zhang Tie would regret it.

"What's your name?"

"My name is Zhang Tie!"

"Then how can I find you after collecting the seeds?"

"I come here often, you don't come to me, I will come to you!"

After speaking, Zhang Tie stood up, took the bag of fruits and left. After walking seven or eight steps, Zhang Tie heard a timid voice from the girl behind, "My name is Pandora..."

Zhang Tie turned around, gave the girl named Pandora a smiling face, then picked up a hawthorn fruit, threw it in the air and caught it with his mouth, biting hard, the sour fruit made Zhang Tie's face sour all of a sudden. Wrinkled, failed to pretend to be B, saw Zhang Tie's appearance, Pandora laughed all of a sudden, then felt that these fruits seemed to be sold by herself, and quickly held back, covered her mouth with her hand, and looked at it again. Zhang Tieshi, only to find that the black-haired boy with the mine basket on his back waved to him and disappeared into the crowd...

"Zhang Tie..." The girl Pandora slightly repeated the name several times in her mouth.

...

After completing today's mine delivery task, Zhang Tie, who is debt-free and eating some sour blueberries and hawthorns, whistled and went down the mountain, and then came back to the mine where he was digging. For four or five hours, for Zhang Tie, this period of time completely belonged to him, and the hidden mine had become the best place to practice without being disturbed. After working all morning, there were fewer people digging in the mine in the afternoon, and the sound of the ore being struck by the ore was even more sparse.

Zhang Tie sat down cross-legged in a relatively clean place in the mine, and then entered the state of cultivation. After carrying a load of more than 100 kilograms of ore and completing a arduous task of delivering ore, Zhang Tie found that , after the pain, my current state is surprisingly good. I feel relaxed but full of energy. I heard from others that if you practice after your body breaks through a physical limit every time, the effect of practice will be great. Very good, anyway, there is still a lot of time in the afternoon, so Zhang Tie decided to give it a try...
