Chapter 40 Two Meters of Determination
"What kind of bullshit training is this? My son was beaten to the point where he's no longer like a human being."
The housekeeper persuaded: "Sir, the injuries the young master suffered are only flesh and blood injuries. They are not a problem. He can recover after lying in the medical cabin for two hours. And if you look carefully, have you noticed the young master's expression? He seems to be enjoying it.
.How many years has it been? How many years has it been since the young master smiled in front of you?"
Long Yun was stunned when he heard this, and turned his head to look at his son through the iron net. At this time, Long Ao's purple face was filled with excitement, and there was a subtle smile at the corner of his mouth.
Long Ao's mother passed away when he was seven years old. Since then, Long Ao has been training for six hours a day.
His teacher was hired by Long Yun at a huge price. Because he took Long Ao's identity into account, he was careful when teaching him. Just like the five previous coaches, they just tried to dodge and block as much as possible.
When attacking Long Ao, he only dared to show off.
After all, he is Boss Long's son. If he does something bad, he will not be able to get his salary, and he will never be able to live in i-city in the future.
But Murong Ye is different. Although he also has a hand in his attacks, his 128 times increased strength is not comparable to those coaches. Even if he holds back nine points of his strength, the remaining strength is enough for Long Ao.
fatal.
The tennis ball first attacked their limbs and joints, then their abdomens. As they gradually adapted to the speed of the ball, Murong Ye began to attack their heads, hearts and other vital parts.
The trajectory of the tennis attack was irregular. They thought it was attacking the opponent's ball, but suddenly it made a sharp turn in the air and flew towards them. They could only rely on temporary reactions to avoid the attack.
The tension between life and death every second made Long Ao feel unprecedentedly excited. Moreover, there was someone training with him, and there was an additional comparison and goal around him, which gave him the motivation to persevere.
Long Yun looked at his son, he had never seen Xiao Ao like this before.
Also, he has been trapped in a castle by himself since he was a child. He has no friends and can only keep company with loneliness. Now he finally meets a peer who doesn't care about his identity.
Xiao Ao must be very happy now.
Long Yun looked outside the training ground for a long time before turning and leaving.
At six o'clock in the afternoon, training ends.
Wang Xingrui and Long Ao finished picking up the ball, lay in the medical cabin for an hour, and returned to the castle.
Long Yun and Murong Ye were already sitting at the dining table waiting for them.
"Xiao Ao, how was your training today?" Long Yun asked knowingly.
Long Ao took a piece of bread and stuffed it into his mouth: "It's okay."
Long Yun asked Murong Ye: "Mr. Murong, has my son made any progress today?"
Long Yun's original intention was to hope that Murong Ye would praise Xiao Ao and give him some encouragement.
Although Long Ao had no expression on his face and was eating by himself, showing a nonchalant look, his chewing speed had obviously slowed down.
Murong Ye smiled and said: "The game has just started, how can we talk about progress? In another half month, if we can close the distance to fifteen meters... we will barely pass."
"Mr. Murong, I know you are strict, we can take it slow." Long Yun felt sorry for his son, but he couldn't help but persuade him.
Bang!
Long Ao slammed the table and stood up: "In ten days, I will definitely shorten the distance to fifteen meters."
After saying that, he glared at his own father angrily.
Only a weak person would bargain with his coach and lower his standards. Long Yun's words just now directly negated all Long Ao's previous efforts, and instead admitted that he was not as good as Wang Xingrui.
Long Yun understood his son's character and knew that he had said the wrong thing, so he quickly took a mouthful of food and pretended to taste it.
"Yes." Murong Ye responded lightly: "In that case, brother, you are just like him."
Wang Xingrui was enjoying his meal. When he heard Murong Ye's words, he looked at Long Ao with a strange expression: "Why are you so crazy? You must be sick."
As he spoke, half of the food in his mouth spurted out.
At that kind of ball speed, it's already very difficult to just stand and move forward. Can't you just listen to your dad and wait for two more days?
"If you are afraid, you can admit defeat."
Give up?
Wang Xingrui laughed angrily at his words.
I don't want to compete with you at all, okay?
Wang Xingrui tentatively said to Murong Ye: "If I admit defeat, won't I have to shorten the distance?"
Murong Ye smiled and said: "Then do you think it is he who has the final say, or me?"
Wang Xingrui sighed.
Understood.
…
In a secret room, the secret room is very wide, about 400 square meters. There are various experimental equipment and a large electronic device that takes up one third of the space of the secret room.
Three scientific researchers are working on the equipment.
"You said before that the genetic medicine will be completed in another month. Now there are only fifteen days left. How complete is the genetic medicine?" Long Yun stood in front of three unkempt scientific researchers and asked.
The oldest staff member began to report on the progress: "The green potion has been completed, the yellow potion is 99.99998% complete, and the red potion is 99.99997% complete. Theoretically, in half a month, all three genetic potions will be fully
100%.”
"Theoretically?"
I hope your theory is correct.
The youngest staff member hesitated for a moment and said, "Mr. Long, the genetic medicine will be completed soon. I want to call my family."
"I'm sorry, I can't promise you. From the day you joined this great project, I have clearly told you that until the last moment when the genetic medicine is completed, you must cut off all contact with the outside world.
Since you have signed a confidentiality agreement, I still hope that you can strictly abide by the content of the agreement."
"But it's been eight years. We have been here for eight years. In addition to studying this broken instrument, we are helping you extract your genes. Even the food and drink are delivered by the machine. Come here when you have nothing to do.
Take a look, for eight years, we have almost always faced two other faces.
My wife and children thought I was dead, but I couldn't explain to them, and I had to endure them starting a family with another man. Do you know what it feels like?
We are scientists and humans, you can't treat us like this!" A scientific researcher roared at Long Yun like crazy, venting the resentment accumulated in his heart for eight years.
Long Yun stood there, listening to what he said quietly, then took a step back and bowed deeply to them: "You are not only human beings, but also my benefactors.
But I hope you understand that since you made a choice between science and family eight years ago, you should bear the corresponding consequences.
You three, I know that you have paid a lot for this and abandoned family ties and love. But I, Long Yun, hereby promise you that in half a month, as long as the genetic medicine is completed, your children will receive the best education.
You will have enough food and clothing for half your life, your parents will enjoy their old age in peace, and your wife will come back to you.
I will do my best to help you get back everything you have lost.
At the same time, I will let people all over the world know that the prehistoric genes were completed by three people.
After eight years of perseverance, there is only the last half month left to reap the fruits of success. Don’t you want to witness with your own eyes the moment when the genetic medicine is born?”
It's like a vacation for students. If you take a vacation once a month, you won't feel anything at the beginning of the month. The most painful thing is a few days before the vacation, time will become particularly slow. Sometimes you can't wait to cross the gap in one breath.
A few days, directly to the end of the month.
The three researchers are in the same situation now. The experiment is coming to an end. Looking at the nearly completed genetic medicine, their hearts begin to feel empty, and homesickness grows in their hearts every second.
Long Yun also realized this, so he needed to comfort these three people as much as possible.
The three scientific researchers' eyes flickered and their hearts began to waver.
Long Yun observed the expressions of the three people, and after ten seconds, he continued: "If you really want to leave here, fine, you can. Sign another agreement to ensure that the news here will not be leaked, and I will let you go.
I will not hold you responsible for breach of contract, but please listen clearly. After the prehistoric genes are completed, I will completely erase the names of the deserters from the project book of the prehistoric plan."
The expressions of the three scientific researchers were condensed.
Once the prehistoric incarnation is released, it will definitely cause a sensation all over the world and go down in history.
Their names will span the long river of time and be remembered by the world.
This is one of the reasons why they would rather leave their families and children to join this project.
But now, Long Yun actually told them to erase their names. How is this possible!
Long Yun said: "Long kindly asks the three of you to bear with me for a while. As long as you get through it, you will get everything you deserve."
After a brief eye contact, the three researchers finally chose to compromise.
"Okay, we promise you."
Long Yun straightened up and said sincerely: "Thank you."
…
Ten days go by in a blink of an eye.
At nine o'clock in the morning, Murong Ye was testing the training results of Long Ao and Wang Xingrui at the training ground.
As before, without any reminder, serve directly.
After fifteen days of training, the two of them were able to stand still and evade attacks from tennis balls for an hour.
Long Ao tried to take a step forward.
Wang Xingrui followed closely behind.
At this moment, Murong Ye said, "Warm-up is over," and the number of tennis balls thrown quickly increased.
From seven per person to fourteen per person, the number doubled. Long Ao and Wang Xingrui's eyes suddenly condensed.
Coming!
They moved quickly, but there were still a few scratches on their bodies.
At this time, they were sixteen meters away from Murong Ye. This was despite the increase in number and the same speed of the ball.
The two of them were sweating profusely, and the sweat slid across the bruised area, and they suddenly felt pain like needles, but they had no time or energy to take care of this.
Two hours later.
Long Ao dodged and moved a step forward.
At this time, Murong Ye said: "I'll give you ten more minutes. The training will end in ten minutes."
Still half a meter away, Long Ao was very excited. As long as he took a small step forward, he would succeed.
On the other hand, Wang Xingrui was still dodging in place.
Long Ao was not proud of this, because before the training was over, any second of hesitation would cause him to miss the fruits of victory.
Finally, Wang Xingrui found the right moment and took a big step forward, closing the distance to fifteen meters. However, because of this, his arm was hit by a tennis ball, and the crisp cracking sound instantly boosted the confidence of Long Ao next to him.
Wang Xingrui was too eager for success. His breathing rhythm was messed up. His arm was broken. Not only would his body movements be stagnant for a moment, but his reflexes would also be greatly reduced. He couldn't last even five minutes like this. He would definitely win.
.
As expected, tennis balls came one after another, but Wang Xingrui narrowly escaped, and blood began to ooze from more than 20 scratches on his body.
Time passed by second by second.
Long Ao has taken that small step and successfully reached Murong Ye's standards. There are now two minutes left before the end of training.
As long as he can hold on, he will win.
"Brother, there are still two minutes until the end of the exam, so hurry up." Murong Ye reminded with a smile.
Wang Xingrui gritted his teeth, and his right arm naturally dropped.
Damn it, I didn’t have a chance to move forward.
"Brother, there are still thirty seconds." Murong Ye reminded again.
Just when Long Ao thought Wang Xingrui was defeated, Wang Xingrui suddenly shouted:
"So annoying!"
The next second, I saw him with a fierce look on his face. He jumped up, clenched his left hand into a fist in mid-air, waved his left arm backhand, and kicked hard with his right foot. While dodging most of the tennis balls, his left arm,
He exerted force with his right foot at the same time and knocked back the two tennis balls. At the same time, the sound of broken bones sounded again.
Two tennis balls flew out and hit Murong Ye directly in the face, but finally stopped in front of his eyes, blocking his sight.
At this time, there were three seconds left before the end of the training, and Wang Xingrui also took advantage of this opportunity to jump forward three times with one leg.
Fifteen, fourteen, thirteen.
"Okay, time's up." As Murong Ye announced that the training was over, the two tennis balls naturally dropped, revealing Murong Ye's eyes that were curved into crescents.
The scene before him was as he expected.
Wang Xingrui sat there expressionlessly, while Long Ao looked at Wang Xingrui two meters in front of him, with shock on his face.
As expected of his younger brother, he is really proud of him.
"I think I've passed the test." Wang Xingrui lay back directly.
He was so tired that he didn't even want to breathe. He was not so tired after digging for twelve hours straight.
Murong Ye smiled slightly: "Of course."
He walked over, carried Wang Xingrui on his back, turned to Long Ao, who was still in a daze, and said, "Congratulations, you also passed."
The words "congratulations" sounded particularly harsh to Long Ao.
After Murong Ye finished speaking, he left the training ground with Wang Xingrui on his back.
After they left, Long Ao knelt on the ground, scratching the ground with his fingers, with a ferocious expression and bulging veins on his forehead.
In order to shorten the distance, Wang Xingrui gave up an arm and a leg.
If he had had the courage of Wang Xingrui at that time, he could have taken a step closer and closed the distance to twelve meters.
Why didn't you do that just now?
Is it because of fear?
Or is it because he is satisfied as long as he can pass?
Long Yun clenched his right hand into a fist and punched the ground one after another.
Why should you be afraid!
Why be satisfied!
It's funny that I thought I was sure to win just now.
In the end, we still lost!
Lost to him again!
Tears of reluctance fell one drop at a time, and his fists became dripping with blood.
Chapter completed!
