Chapter 167: Rules of the City of Despair and Hope

After a night of silence, Xuan Yue's biological clock woke him up early the next morning. The first thing Xuan Yue did when he woke up was to start the first practice of the morning. However, he only reacted when Xuan Yue was meditating and practicing Qi.

Come here, you can no longer condense the profound energy at this moment, because the spirit-suppressing stone around your neck and the true energy in the body have been completely suppressed.

But this didn't faze Xuan Yue. He started the most basic training. Because he was carrying a weight, he didn't take it off because he was running in a hurry in the jungle. At this moment, it became the basis of Xuan Yue's training.

Just when Xuan Yue had been practicing alone for about an hour, Dugu Qiubai and Jian Ersan also woke up from their sleep. They had actually woken up the moment Xuan Yue woke up, but when they saw Xuan Yue

Wherever Xuan Yue was busy practicing, they didn't bother her because they also wanted to see how Xuan Yue practiced.

However, after an hour of observation, they found that Xuan Yue's training methods were very old-fashioned. At least in their opinion, this training method that was almost physically draining could only continuously exercise the flexibility of one's body, and had almost no real effect.

Because of the transformation effect, they couldn't stand it anymore and woke up.

"Master, you're awake. I'll get you some water to wash your face." Seeing that Dugu Qiubai had woken up, Xuan Yue quickly took a wooden basin and filled a basin of clean water from the pool nearby and brought it over.

After briefly washing up, Dugu Qiubai said, "Have you been doing morning exercises like this all these years?"

"Well, yes, it's like this every day, never once! It's just that I have the assistance of Xuan Qi at that time." Xuan Yue nodded and said.

"This won't work. This kind of practice is too low-level. Come on, I'll teach you a set of body-strengthening techniques. As long as you can fully integrate this set of body-strengthening techniques and persist for an hour every day, then it won't work.

Your physique will more than double in half a year!" Using such an old-fashioned method, Xuan Yue was able to train his system to such a level. Dugu Qiubai didn't know whether to say Xuan Yue was lucky or lucky.

"Thank you, master!" Xuan Yue said, cupping her fists.

Dugu Qiubei sat on the bed and assumed a posture with his hands bent behind his legs, just like leaning sideways in yoga. However, compared to yoga, the difficulty of what Dugu Qiubai did was even more exaggerated. Almost his entire body was

It just turned around in a circle.

Xuan Yue's body has not undergone such training, so it is impossible to achieve the effect of Dugu Qiubei for the first time. However, with the help of Dugu Qiubei, Xuan Yue also made a three-point look, but that was it.

Within half a minute, Xuan Yue felt numb and swollen all over.

"Okay, let's stop here. This is the only posture you have to learn now. When you can persist for an hour, I will teach you the next posture!" Looking at Xuan Yue's flushed cheeks, Dugu Qiubai

Knowing that Xuan Yue is not yet able to integrate this move.

"I know, master, hoo." Turning around, Xuan Yue took two deep breaths. In just half a minute, Xuan Yue felt as if her whole body had gone through a war. This effect shocked Xuan Yue.

.

You must know that you are not so tired even after running wildly in the forest for a day. However, this is just a gesture, and it only takes half a minute to make yourself so tired. It seems that Dugu Qiubai can change

There is a reason why he is so strong.

"Okay, follow me, I'll give you some other training stuff, and also give you some rules about this place." He signaled Xuan Yue to take a short rest, then Dugu Qiubei stood up and said.

"I understand, master."

…

He said he was going to get something, but he never left the third underground floor. But even so, Xuan Yue was shocked speechless. On this third underground floor, he didn't pay attention when he went down the steps, but

I just remember it now when I think about it.

It took me nearly five minutes to walk that neither long nor short step. Although Xuan Yue's instructions for the five-minute step were not fast, even if a normal person walked down the steps, there would probably be a distance of tens of meters, right?

After Dugu Qiubei walked out of the prison area, Xuan Yue discovered that there was a whole other world underground. From markets, restaurants, and all kinds of entertainment venues, it could be said that everything was available. However, unlike the prisoners, those doing business

The person did not wear a spirit-suppressing stone collar around his neck.

"If you don't have to, don't conflict with those operators. They are all people from the City of Despair and Hope. They are hired by the city lord to help sell and operate things here. All things are clearly priced, so you don't have to worry about anyone.

I will cheat you." Pointing lightly at those doing business, Dugu Qiubai said very seriously.

"Yes, master."

"Also, everything here needs to be exchanged for survival points. From the clothes you wear, the food you eat, to the medicinal herbs and elixirs you practice, and even some rare elixirs, you can redeem them here.

"

"Survival points? What is that?" Xuan Yue asked confused about this term.

"Survival points are the foundation for everyone to survive in this city of despair and hope. The way to earn them is very simple. You can easily obtain them by participating in activities. Of course, the premise is that you can survive the activities. I watched you

The nameplate ends with an odd number, which means you don’t have to participate in activities this month, so you still have nearly half a month to practice."

"Activities? What are those?"

"To put it bluntly, the event is just for fun and gambling for the nobles, wealthy businessmen, young ladies and young men. Everything we do will be transmitted through the image array to the arena about one hundred and sixty miles away from here. They pay the

The expensive tickets are for City of Despair and Hope, where you can watch the whole show

activities, and they can also place bets on people they think may survive and win alive, and get rewards. To put it bluntly, it is just a bet." Regarding the activities, Dugu Qiubai's words were somewhat cold, obviously a strong man with such strength

He was also treated like a toy, which made him very angry.

But when he thought about the last hurdle on the road of hope, his mind gradually became cold. He would not step in vain, and he would never be able to leave the city of despair and hope.

Not everyone has the courage to enter the 500-meter weak water dead zone. Wherever a person's body touches the weak water, it will instantly turn into a pool of blood. If there is no timely will to cut the skin,

Then in the blink of an eye, because of a slight hesitation, your whole body may turn into a pool of blood, and even your bones may melt.

"These people are really too much." After understanding the whole story, Xuan Yue felt extremely heavy.

"Excessive? Maybe. In their eyes, we are all damned prisoners on death row, and no matter what we do, nothing is too much. But at least this gives those death row prisoners a chance to survive, and at least there is a glimmer of hope for good or bad.

At least many people living here are happier than outside." Hearing Xuan Yue's tone, Dugu Qiubai smiled softly and said nonchalantly.

Hearing Dugu Qiubai's words, Xuan Yue fell silent. Yes, although it was excessive, it gave people a way to survive. At least for those prisoners who were bound to die, this place was better than death.

"Don't think blindly. Don't think that this place is benevolent. If you think so, you are absolutely wrong. Compared with the outside, this place is a real hell on earth. Even Jian Twenty-san and I can only guarantee ourselves.

Immortal. If we meet someone on the fourth level, I'm afraid we won't feel well, and we will die here if we are not careful." Seeing Xuan Yue's eyes, Dugu Qiubei waved his hand to dismiss Xuan Yue's thoughts.

"Yes. I took it too much for granted." Xuan Yue shook her head. Her thoughts were too naive. How could anyone give a death row prisoner a chance to survive?

Everyone here is just a toy that can be discarded at any time. Although there are mandatory rules to restrict it, if some people intervene forcefully, I am afraid that even the city lord of the city of despair and hope will be unable to do anything.

Bar?

"Hey, isn't this Brother Dugu? Why, he came out so early today, hey, this kid..." Just as Dugu Qiubai was striding forward with Xuan Yue, an old man from the restaurant saw Dugu

Qiufei immediately shouted, but when he saw Xuan Yue, he immediately said in surprise.

"Hehe, this is my apprentice. If I don't have time for him to come get something in the future, just give it to him and the points will be deducted from me. Brother Zhou, do you think it's okay?" Dugu Qiubai patted the old man on the shoulder.

for a moment, and then said cheerfully.

"Of course it works. If others can't, why can't you, Brother Dugu? You are not an easy apprentice." The boy named Zhou immediately responded, but the look in his eyes when he looked at Xuan Yue was very brilliant.

"That's what happened to the apprentice that I, Dugu Qiubei, likes. Those ordinary people can compare!" Seeing Brother Zhou say such a sentence, Dugu Qiubei laughed and said.

"Then I'm here to congratulate brother Dugu. By the way, are you going to get something?" Brother Zhou congratulated Dugu Qiubai and then asked.

"Yes, I have just accepted a disciple, so of course I have to give him some greeting gifts, otherwise I will be sorry for my reputation as a master." He looked at Xuan Yue proudly, and then said cheerfully.

"Then I'll influence you. I still have work to do. See you later."

"Well, see you later." After waving to Brother Zhou, Dugu Qiubai continued to walk forward with Xuan Yue.

"He is not a simple person. He has been in this city of despair and hope for fifty years. He is the one who has witnessed the former king Red Beard walk out of the city of despair and hope. Red Beard.

!I heard that he has now become the Pirate King of the West Sea. He is really an amazing person." At the end of his sentence, Dugu Qiubai looked yearning.

Redbeard, One Piece! West Sea?

"Hey, I unknowingly told you such useless things. There is a place to receive things just ahead. Follow me in. I'm going to bleed again today." It seemed that his words were a bit too much, so Dugu Qiubai brushed it off indifferently.
