I rely on unlimited life extension

At this moment, several prison guards heard the commotion and rushed over.

Seeing this, Lin Zhihao calmly called the man who had hit him back to his side, and then calmly said to the prison guard, "Sir, you have to take this matter seriously."

This guy not only stole my chicken, but also challenged me to a fight. And what happened? He got only a light kick, and then he started acting like he was seriously injured. It's utterly shameless!

Zhong Chuxiong chimed in at the opportune moment, "That's right. You're a grown man, and you cry out in pain from such a light touch, rolling around and screaming. It's utterly shameful."

The prison guards exchanged glances. Seeing that even the head of corrections had made such a statement, they figured it was probably just a minor squabble between prisoners, so they didn't pursue it any further and quickly retreated.

The surrounding prisoners witnessed this scene, but not one of them stood up to say a word of justice or step forward to stop it.

They all adopted an attitude of indifference, even with gloating expressions on their faces, coldly watching everything unfold.

Lin Zhihao leisurely spat out the last chicken bone, slowly turned his head, and strolled straight toward where Zhang Zhiheng was.

As he approached, he crouched down, his gaze falling on Zhang Zhiheng, who was curled up on the ground, trembling. A meaningful smile appeared on his lips as he asked softly, "Brother, do you know why I'm bullying you like this?"

Upon hearing this, Zhang Zhiheng shuddered violently, clenched his teeth, and dared not make a sound.

Seeing this, Lin Zhihao was not in a hurry and continued, "Someone offered 100 million to have me finish you off in this jail."

However, that person had one special request: he would only act when your sentence was almost up; before that, he would make you wish you were dead.

Zhang Zhiheng's face turned deathly pale instantly, and his body trembled violently again uncontrollably. He had lost control of his bladder, and wet stains spread across the ground, filling the air with a pungent smell of urine.

Lin Zhihao frowned slightly, then stood up, looked around, and said loudly, "Listen up, everyone! From today onwards, anyone can cause him trouble, but no one is allowed to take his life."

If anyone goes too far, remember to take him to the infirmary immediately. In short, you can do whatever you want with him, but if anyone dares to take his life, I, Lin Zhihao, will not let them off easily; I will definitely take that person's life.

With that, he turned and strode away. The three villains exchanged a glance, then followed closely behind Lin Zhihao, disappearing from sight together.

After Lin Zhihao left, the remaining prisoners seemed to receive a silent command and spontaneously and slowly surrounded Zhang Zhiheng, trapping him in the middle.

In an instant, fists and feet clashed within the encirclement, muffled groans and screams mingling together.

A moment later, the crowd gradually dispersed, and Zhang Zhiheng was seen lying limply on the ground like a lifeless shell, like a discarded dead fish, his eyes closed, his face ashen, his life hanging in the balance.

At this moment, four prisoners stepped forward, grabbed Zhang Zhiheng by the hands and feet, and carried him hurriedly toward the infirmary, leaving only the sound of their hurried footsteps echoing in the silent prison corridor.

At that moment, work tasks were being assigned outside, and Lin Zhihao followed Zhong Chuxiong to his office.

Zhong Chuxiong looked puzzled and asked, "Brother Hao, will what we're doing today work? Will that kid tell the truth?"

Lin Zhihao smiled confidently and patiently explained, "Don't worry, I've been a constable for many years and I know what I'm doing."

The purpose of today's series of actions is not just to beat him up and vent our anger, but to send him a signal: as long as he stays in this jail, he will never have a peaceful day.

Ordinary prisoners long for release and freedom, but his situation was quite different.

Others can step out of prison after serving their sentence, but not him. Once his sentence is about to end, it will be his death.

My true purpose was to trap him in this hopeless predicament; this is the best strategy to win his heart.

Upon hearing this, Zhong Chuxiong suddenly understood, his face full of admiration. He gave a thumbs up and said, "Brother Hao is truly brilliant! I, Zhong Chuxiong, am completely impressed by his methods and strategies."

Lin Zhihao said to Zhong Chuxiong, "By the way, help me find a place to take a shower. I need to take a shower later and then get a good night's sleep."

After thinking for a moment, Zhong Chuxiong replied, "Then let's go to our single room. There's no one here right now, so we can take a shower and sleep. The only downside is that the bed is a bit hard."

Lin Zhihao waved his hand dismissively and said, "It's no big deal, I'm not picky."

Afterwards, Zhong Chuxiong led Lin Zhihao to a floor. Sure enough, the entire floor consisted of single cells equipped with shower facilities. Although the space was somewhat cramped, it was quiet and empty.

Lin Zhihao found an open cell, went straight in, and lay down on the bed. Zhong Chuxiong also turned and left to inspect the prisoners' work assignments.

After resting with his eyes closed for a moment, Lin Zhihao sat up and opened his system ability panel in his mind. His eyes locked onto the "Hard Qigong" technique among the many options, and then he pointed to it and decisively selected it.

System prompt: Consume 50 energy points and 500 hours of life time to upgrade your Hard Qigong level?

System, select, yes.

Lin Zhihao suddenly felt a warm surge in his lower abdomen, as if a warm spring had been instantly activated, and this heat spread throughout his body at an extremely fast speed.

In an instant, an irresistible urge surged within him, and a force seemed to urge him to roar to the heavens.

Immediately afterwards, the muscles tightened slightly, and a slight soreness spread between the muscle fibers like a fine spider web.

At the same time, a tingling sensation spread through every inch of the bone marrow, as if countless ants were slowly crawling inside.

As the heat intensified, fine beads of sweat began to seep from his pores, gradually gathering into beads and sliding down his skin.

The muscle soreness and bone tingling intensified, even accompanied by a slight "clicking" sound, as if the body's internal structure was undergoing a hidden and profound reshaping, making the muscles firmer, the bones more resilient, and the tendons more elastic and powerful.

Just then, the hard qigong seed in Lin Zhihao's lower abdomen suddenly burst forth with wisps of continuous energy. This energy was like a nimble electric current, rapidly flowing through his chest, back, limbs, and even his mind.

Surprisingly, the unbearable soreness and itching sensation gradually subsided under the influence of this breath until it completely disappeared.

This strange and intense feeling lasted for about five minutes before slowly receding like a tide.

Lin Zhihao clearly sensed the power within his body continuously rising. That power was like a surging flood, rushing and roaring through his blood vessels and meridians, as if all obstacles in the world would be easily destroyed in front of it.

Lin Zhihao's eight-pack abs and slightly tight clothes proclaimed that he could now call himself a macho man.

System notification: Your Hard Qigong technique has advanced to the intermediate level. The True Qi Seed has been activated, internal energy is beginning to appear, and your aura is gradually gathering into a powerful force. With this Qi boost, all attributes increase by 5. You can continue to consume system energy and life time to upgrade the technique level. Upgrade now?

System, no.

Lin Zhihao leaped lightly off the bed and bounced a few times on the floor.

At that moment, he felt as if his whole body was enveloped in warm hot spring water, every pore opened up, and a lazy sense of comfort permeated his entire body.

He focused intently on his own attributes and discovered that the original +1 to all attributes had become +5, which secretly pleased him.

His gaze swept over his sweat-drenched body, then he turned and went into the bathroom. He reached out and turned on the plastic showerhead, and water gushed out with a considerable flow. He stood under the showerhead, letting the water wash over his body, cleansing away the sweat and fatigue, and instantly felt refreshed.

Afterwards, Lin Zhihao returned to the bedside, lay down comfortably, and soon fell into a deep sleep.

When he slowly woke up, he heard Zhong Chuxiong banging on the iron bars with a rubber baton, and at the same time, he heard shouts: "Get up, Brother Hao, it'll be time for dinner soon."

Lin Zhihao slowly sat up, stretched his arms vigorously, and did a big yawn, with his joints making a crisp "crackling" sound.

Then, he nimbly jumped off the bed and strode out of his solitary cell, his eyes revealing the clarity and energy of someone who had just woken up.

Zhong Chuxiong hurried over and reported with a slightly nervous expression, "Brother Hao, Zhang Zhiheng has been taken to the infirmary. His condition is not good; he has four broken ribs and both of his hands are broken."

Lin Zhihao's lips curled up into a cold smile: "Let him stay in the infirmary for two days first."

After some time, find a suitable opportunity to send two strong, healthy men in, so they can truly experience what it means to have one's situation compounded by misfortune, and to suffer unbearable hardship.

Upon hearing this, Zhong Chuxiong's body trembled slightly involuntarily, and he quickly nodded in response, "Understood, Brother Hao, everything will be done as you instruct."

Lin Zhihao swaggered into the dining hall, sat down as if no one else was there, and began an astonishing feast.

He devoured ten steaks in a flash, then finished off two ham and egg dishes before patting his belly contentedly and letting out a series of loud burps.

The surrounding prisoners were stunned by what they saw.

The astonishment in their eyes made it difficult to tell whether they were shocked by Lin Zhihao's astonishing appetite or intimidated by the powerful influence and arrogance he displayed in prison.

Zhong Chuxiong stood to the side, his brows furrowed, secretly calculating in his mind: "With Brother Hao's appetite, how many days can that hundred thousand yuan last if he spends it on food like this?"

After dinner, the prisoners flocked to the playground.

Lin Zhihao looked around. Armed guards stood ready on the watchtowers, and the nearly seven or eight-meter-high walls covered with electric fences exuded a stern atmosphere. But he didn't care. Instead, he laughed and thought to himself, "In this place, my leaping limit skill can finally be put to use again."

He turned and walked towards Zhong Chuxiong, who was smoking, patted him on the shoulder and said, "After you get off work, help me find out something."

Zhong Chuxiong looked puzzled, exhaled a puff of smoke, and asked, "Brother Hao, what's the matter?"

Lin Zhihao's gaze was playful as he asked, "I heard you like gambling?"

Upon hearing the word "gambling," Zhong Chuxiong's eyes lit up instantly, and he said with great interest, "Brother Hao, are you also interested in gambling? I'm not bragging, but I've known all kinds of gambling games since I was a kid."

"Betting on sports, horse racing, mahjong, dominoes, cards, dice—there's nothing I, Killer Xiong, can't handle. Brother Hao, which one would you like to play? I can definitely help you."

Lin Zhihao sighed softly, and said with a hint of helplessness, "How can you help me? Can you take me out to play a few rounds and then come back? If you really have that ability, I'll just say it, and if you lose, it's on me."

A glint flashed in Zhong Chuxiong's eyes. After cautiously glancing around, he whispered to Lin Zhihao, "Brother Hao, are you really keeping your word?"

Lin Zhihao raised an eyebrow slightly and asked, "What? Do you really have a way? I heard that not many people know my identity, right? Don't break the rules."

Zhong Chuxiong snorted nonchalantly and said in a low voice, "What's there to be afraid of? The warden can't be here all the time."

As long as we act carefully after dark and don't let the prison guards on duty notice, right? Let me think about it...

First and foremost, you must ensure that the people in your cell don't notice anything.

Okay, I'll put you in a single cell first. Oh, by the way, I see you get along quite well with that old man Robinson Crusoe, how about I get him into a single cell too?

Lin Zhihao pondered for a moment, then nodded slightly and said, "Don't touch Robinson for now. Just give him some special care, but be careful not to attract attention. You know, Robinson has quite a few powerful enemies outside of prison."

Zhong Chuxiong replied nonchalantly, "Brother Hao, leave this to me. I'll arrange an easy job for Robinson Crusoe tomorrow."

My home is very close to the prison, less than a kilometer away. After I get out of the prison, I can go straight to my home and change into ordinary clothes.

But Hao-ge, let's be clear, taking you out is against the rules, so you'll have to look after your little brother. Once you've had your fun, you absolutely must come back with me. Don't you dare run away halfway home; I really can't handle the consequences.”

Lin Zhihao said with a resolute expression, "Don't worry. As a constable, my discipline is beyond question."

Besides, my mission isn't finished yet. Where can I run to? I wouldn't dare run even if you gave me ten lives. If my boss finds out, he'll definitely not let me off easily.

Zhong Chuxiong nodded vigorously: "Yes, yes, yes, it's good that you know what's going on. It's just that how to sneak out is a tricky problem right now."

How about this, after I get off work, I'll have dinner at home and then go back to the prison, making an excuse that I left something in the office and forgot to pick it up.

"Brother Hao, you can secretly hide in my car. Once I get my things and drive off, you'll have slipped away smoothly, right?"

Lin Zhihao frowned, and asked with doubt, "Won't the guards search your car?"

After a moment's thought, Zhong Chuxiong sighed helplessly, "Those guards are from Area A; they're all ruthless guys."

"Don't even mention my car; they'll thoroughly search even the warden's vehicle, inside and out. Trying to sneak out of here is harder than climbing to heaven."
