"Beep beep beep! Beep beep beep!"
The devilish sound of the apple heart pacemaker flooded Lin Li's mind, waking him up.
At this moment, the time is 4:30 in the morning.
The sky is like a painting with ink slowly emerging, casting a soft glow, as the eastern horizon gradually lightens up, turning from ink to blue, with unknown birds singing melodiously.
Lin Li never thought Xiling Town could be so beautiful at 4 AM.
Lao Da, I finally understand you. I've finally become a true man.
No one can resist such a beautiful time and scenery. In such circumstances, how can one not do something meaningful?
——Let's sleep for just five more minutes, damn, who the hell gets up this early.
Everyone knows that thirty plus five equals fifty.
At 4:50, Lin Li finally reluctantly got out of bed.
In fact, he really wanted to get up at 4:59, but he was worried that the stupid system would register the time point for starting exercise just when he finishes washing up and gets downstairs, which would be almost five by then.
Yawning, Lin Li came out from the first floor.
At five in the community was not exactly deserted; in fact, when Lin Li arrived at the community park, there were already quite a few people.
Most of them were old men and women, either chatting or exercising in the park, and some middle-aged people running around the park.
But young people like Lin Li were rare, so the elderly around him glanced at Lin Li more than once.
Lin Li felt like he saw a side of this community he had never known before, and it was quite shocking.
"Boom-boom-boom, poof-poof, catching and attacking assassins boom-boom-boom——"
An elderly lady, who was obviously over sixty, unexpectedly demonstrated a B-BOX performance in front of Lin Li!
And another elderly man, just as old, was moonwalking, scraping-scraping, it's the devil's stride!
What the heck is going on, is this still the country I know?
Is six o'clock the watershed between two worlds?
Does this world really have an inner and outer world?
Or are these grannies and grandpas trendy Old Dengs with Shanghai IDs?
But anyway, Lin Li never hesitated to compliment such strong individuals: "Grandma, your B-BOX is amazing!"
"What B-thing are you talking about?" If it weren't for the questioning tone, Lin Li felt she was scolding him.
"What you were just performing…"
"A dandelion flew into my mouth just now, rotten luck." The granny got angry again, boom-boom-booming a few more times.
Lin Li: "..."
He looked at the moonwalking grandpa, already losing confidence: "Grandpa, you just…"
"I stepped on dog poop." The old man continued to scrape the sole of his shoe without even looking up.
Back to the reality, all back to reality, it turns out I'm indeed still in the country, suddenly everyone felt more familiar, of course, that didn't stop Lin Li from staying a bit away from the Dog Poop Old Deng, while also paying more attention to his own feet.
Lin Li didn't forget his task, heading to the park plaza.
A large group of elderly ladies were neatly practicing square dance, but very considerate, without playing music to disturb others, in a way, wasn't this silent dance the cutting edge of trends?
And quite relaxing.
Lin Li didn't join them, but found an empty space, near the pavilion, with only one old man in martial arts attire practicing Tai Chi.
Yes, it has a nice Body Refining atmosphere.
Lin Li used the phone stand he brought to fix his phone, then opened the Ba Duan Jin tutorial from a website that appeared once on the Mongolian top single list, then took a deep breath and began to learn exercising.
Speaking of which, there's a lot of roast chicken on B-site, why doesn't it trigger some tasks or something.
The reason for practicing Ba Duan Jin is the task description required Body Refining, Lin Li just tried it, on the way here, the progress bar hadn't changed, running doesn't count.
So practicing cultivation techniques is necessary, luckily these methods are abundant in the five-thousand-year heritage.
Once he saw the progress bar starting to move, Lin Li let out a sigh of relief, his thought was correct, as long as the body also seriously follows along, it counts as practicing seriously.
Then next, just need to practice diligently for an hour.
The old man practicing Tai Chi beside him initially thought Lin Li was just acting on impulse, his movements were very clumsy, barely worth paying attention to, but unexpectedly Lin Li practiced with such dedication.
Each limb stretched out straight every time, with all his strength, it's not difficult, but it's important to note, this was under no supervision, the self-control and perseverance of this young man were terrifyingly strong, the old man nodded with satisfaction.
A pillar of the nation!
Influenced by this emotion, he switched from health-preserving Tai Chi to martial arts Tai Chi, each punch roaring fiercely, he couldn't lose to this kid!
The old man's hot blood is boiling too!
Youth!
The old man feels youthful craziness! Restores kidney deficiency, sugar-free!
Lin Li didn't know a fiery elder-themed anime was unfolding beside him, if he knew the old man's thoughts, he'd definitely ridicule.
No supervision? This old fellow really has no supervision, I've got an all-round, no-blind-spot stupid system supervising me!
If I make any lazy or easing moves, the progress bar will hit me hard on the head.
Can only say studying theory seriously and practicing seriously, the difficulty gap between the two far exceeds Lin Li's imagination.
Lin Li's physical condition...
Let's put it this way, Lin Li thinks Bolt is just so-so, 100 meters in 9.58 seconds, but he doesn't need 100 meters to run 9.58 seconds.
——In reality, Lin Li is a softie who takes four and a half minutes to run a thousand meters during physical testing, his daily exercise volume only consists of cycling to and from school.
Along with the morning in summer, as time passes, the temperature keeps rising too, the progress bar over half, Lin Li was already sweating profusely, his clothes showing noticeable color difference because of sweat stains.
At this time, Lin Li's movements were no longer standard, but the good news is the progress bar was rising normally, after all, the system knows whether Lin Li was practicing seriously, he's not unwilling now, just physically unable to make standard movements anymore.
Lin Li started practicing at five, but only at half-past six did he finally take a long breath and sat on the ground, finally free.
