Immortality starts from the liver proficiency

Chapter 1 Mining
clang!clang!clang!
In the dark mine, Xu Yunfan, dressed in tattered clothes and stained black by ore dust, took a breath, looked at the blisters on his palms, pursed his lips, raised the pickaxe in his hand again, and smashed the ore on the cave wall.

Zhou Feng, who looked dejected, looked at the pickaxe in his hand and couldn't help but whispered.

"I don't want to stay here. I have nothing to eat and nothing to wear. The mine might collapse and we'll all die inside."

clang!
"Zhang Li, who came down with us, collapsed yesterday due to fatigue and injury. He was dragged away and has not been heard from since."

Seeing Xu Yunfan turning a deaf ear and swinging the pickaxe vigorously, Zhou Feng said.

"Do you also want to be like Zhang Li, having your food snatched away by Jiang Yu, and working yourself to death just to fill your stomach? We suffered so much at his hands back then, and now we have to endure his humiliation again. I won't accept that!

If you keep exerting yourself like this, it won't even take a month before you can get out of the cave next time!"

Xu Yunfan's originally stiff movements became smooth and powerful at this moment. He sat on his hips with his waist and abdomen. Every time he lowered the pickaxe, he gripped the ground with his bare feet, his thighs rose and fell, and his hips swayed like riding a horse. A force was transmitted through his arms to the pickaxe in his hands, and then it fell heavily.

clang!
The sound of the pickaxes colliding, much louder than before, burst open directly and echoed melodiously in this winding mine.

'You have mastered the art of mining.'

'Mining 0/500 (Beginner)
Special effects: sharp eyes and quick hands, waist rising like a wave, strength flowing through arms'

Xu Yunfan glanced at the information prompt that popped up in his vision, and his eyes couldn't help but become moist.

Three days, do you know how I spent these three days?
Others who came here through time travel enjoy delicious food and drinks, but he was a cow or a horse before he came here, and he is even more of a cow or a horse after he came here.

In ancient times, miners, especially those who were demoted to a lowly status due to being implicated in the families of criminals, were consumable goods and would be dead if they died.

If it weren't for the attribute panel, and the prompt that he could use a hoe to mine when swinging the pickaxe appeared, he would really be a little depressed.

No joke.

As the information prompt quietly emerged from his field of vision, his body began to undergo miraculous changes. His originally tense and slightly stiff muscles gradually relaxed, and all the muscles in his body were no longer as tense as before.

A memory slowly flowed through his mind. In his memory, he had been digging in this mine for seven or eight years, overcoming numerous obstacles. With practice, he finally mastered the use of the pickaxe in his hand.

Xu Yunfan lifted another pickaxe. He twisted his waist like a snake, driving the muscles of his back and shoulders to rise and fall, providing support for his arms. His thighs were like springs, and his feet were firmly planted on the ground. When he exerted force on his waist, he suddenly contracted and stretched, echoing the strength of his whole body to form a combined force.

clang!
The crisp and melodious sound of metal clashing spread out, echoing in this winding mine.

He could clearly feel that his waist, back and arms were no longer sore and weak as before. Instead, he felt refreshed and felt a little unsatisfied.

Zhou Feng was filled with surprise. He had just thought that Xu Yunfan would die of injury in the mine sooner or later due to exhaustion from exerting such extreme strength. He didn't expect that the pickaxe he had just used made him feel a little insecure.

Watching Xu Yunfan turn around and sit on the ground, he took out some dry food made of wheat bran from his arms and swallowed it silently.

Zhou Feng looked at him with a submissive look, cursed angrily, and stepped forward to grab Xu Yunfan by the collar.

"Do you really want to die in this mine? Don't you want to escape?"

"You and I were implicated by Jiang Yu and are fortunate not to have been beheaded. Escape? Who wouldn't want to? But who can escape?"

Xu Yunfan felt quite helpless. He was a servant before. Now that the empress of the Great Zhou Empire has seized power, the conservative faction has been arrested, beaten, and killed.

Jiang Yu's father was beheaded, the Jiang family was raided, the men exiled, and the women of marriageable age sent to the Imperial Music Bureau. He was also banished to the mines with his evil master, where Jiang Yu continued to boss him around. Yesterday, Zhang Li, robbed of his food by Jiang Yu, had intended to dig another cart of ore to exchange for food, but unfortunately, he died of exhaustion on the way.

"You... you know, after being implicated by the Jiang Yu family and becoming a mining slave under the Mine Supervisor's Office, almost no one can survive for three years. With a body like yours and mine, we'd be dead within a month."

He had no doubt about Zhou Feng's words. In such extremely harsh living conditions, even if he didn't die of exhaustion, he would die from various diseases due to the harsh external environment.

During the three days in the mine, new people came in every day, and every day people died from injuries or insufficient exhaustion from digging. They lay on the ground and were dragged out, and then they were never seen again.

This place is located in the extreme north of the Great Zhou Dynasty, surrounded by endless ice fields and barren mountains. As the weather gets colder, strong winds howl and blizzards rage on the surface.

Because the mine is deep, it can still maintain a certain temperature. However, once you pass the permafrost and reach the surface, without any protection, people with weaker physical conditions will die of hypothermia within an hour or two.

Even if they escaped from the mine, what would their chances of survival be in such a harsh environment?

Seeing Xu Yunfan's submissive look, Zhou Feng felt sorry for his misfortune and angry at his lack of resistance. In the end, he could only let go of his hand, sit down on the side, keep his head down and stop talking.

Xu Yunfan knew the other party because he and his predecessor were servants in the Jiang family since childhood. The two grew up together. Because they belonged to different departments and had no interest relationship, they had a good relationship with Zhou Feng.

Zhou Feng is now preparing to join forces with some unbearable miners to escape from here, and naturally wants to get Xu Yunfan to join them.

But this world is not simple.

Three days ago, when he had just crossed over and was about to go down the mine, he saw a young man who was unwilling and turned to run away. In the end, he was torn into two halves by the supervisor with a whip. Now the body is still lying there as a warning to others.

Whenever I think about it now, I still feel a chill in my heart.

Just based on Zhou Feng's lazy and clueless appearance, he wanted to escape from here...

It is indeed a bit difficult.

Xu Yunfan has an attribute panel and has just learned the basics of mining skills. His survival rate in this mine has been greatly improved. Naturally, he wants to go further and seek opportunities.

"Zhou Feng, we need to settle down first and find a chance to survive. Even if we can escape the mine, what good will it do? Can we make it out of the 800-mile wasteland and glaciers?"

Zhou Feng muttered, "As long as I can escape this mine, the sky is high enough for birds to fly, the sea is wide enough for fish to leap, and there's an 800-mile-long desolate river. Can't I get out? I have a way, are you really not coming?"

Xu Yunfan felt helpless after hearing this. In his previous life's memory, Zhou Feng had never left Yujing since he was a child. Do you know what an eight hundred li wilderness river means?

Xu Yunfan said, "We don't even know the surrounding environment. We need to explore the surroundings clearly before we can make any plans."

Seeing Xu Yunfan take a break and then pick up the pickaxe to mine again, Zhou Feng pointed with his finger, trembling a little, and finally waved his sleeves and left angrily.

Xu Yunfan looked back at Zhou Feng's back, sighed, and continued mining.
