27: Chapter 27 It's better to live a wretched life than to die a good death

Mr. Xu had already made it very clear.

This steel structure platform was actually a bit like the Eiffel Tower, composed entirely of I-beams, just with different models and lengths.

To climb such a structure, the most important thing was to grab the edges of the I-beams and then use professional techniques to move upward bit by bit.

But the difficulty lay in the complexity of this steel structure.

This platform was like a blooming steel rose, with hundreds of steel beams crisscrossing inside; some were horizontal, some vertical, and some even diagonal.

However, not every steel beam could lead you to the next level.

If you chose the wrong route, you would only realize after climbing for a long time that you had ultimately chosen a dead end.

When that happened, you would be caught in a dilemma, and for you, this competition would be over.

Just when everyone thought Qin Feng would climb up in one go, he took out a structural diagram and began comparing it with the steel structure platform in front of him.

This simple action by Qin Feng left the netizens breaking out in a cold sweat.

"Seriously, bro, if you want to look at the diagram, just look at it, but can you not hold it with both hands! That's way too dangerous; you've got me sweating!"

"Damn, why is it that even though he's clearly just looking at a diagram, I feel even more terrified now?"

"I have that feeling too. I even feel like I'm about to faint. I only feel a bit better now that I'm lying on my bed!"

He Bingbing, in the livestream room, felt the same way.

Because the livestream room used a super-large screen, once Qin Feng's first-person perspective was magnified, He Bingbing couldn't handle it for a moment, and her face turned pale with fear.

He Bingbing subconsciously crossed her legs and gripped the edge of the table with one hand, then forced herself to calm down and asked.

"Mr. Xu, I see many netizens asking, why is it that even though Qin Feng's first-person perspective isn't showing the street below, we feel even more afraid? Is this some kind of psychological suggestion?"

Mr. Xu nodded and explained, "You could say it's a form of psychological suggestion, or you could say it's a self-protection mechanism of the body."

"When people look at things, their bodies will involuntarily lean forward, especially when reading books or looking at phones; this situation is even more obvious."

"And at this moment, Qin Feng is standing hundreds of meters high in the air; his entire body must maintain absolute balance so he doesn't fall."

"At this moment, Qin Feng has opened the structural diagram with both hands to compare and check it. This action of his actually contains two dangerous signals."

"First, his hands are no longer holding onto the steel beams, so he cannot maintain his body balance well."

"Second, in the process of comparing and checking, it's highly likely that his body will lean forward. And because Qin Feng's line of sight is obstructed, he cannot immediately judge if he has lost his balance, so it's very easy for an accident to happen. That is why our bodies produce such a strong sense of fear."

Many netizens were just afraid, but they didn't know why.

Now, after hearing Mr. Xu's explanation, they finally found the answer.

Why are people's sixth sense or instinctive reactions sometimes so accurate?

In fact, it's because these instinctive reactions, or the sixth sense, are the result of your body's comprehensive judgment.

Many of your behaviors or observations of the environment are subconscious.

It's possible that you haven't even figured out what's going on yourself, but your body has actually already made a judgment.

This is also why Bruce Lee once said that truly formidable martial artists do not need to think during a fight.

Because in the process of actual combat, your body will make the most correct reactions, and you only need to follow your instincts.

The reason the netizens in the livestream room feel afraid watching Qin Feng's first-person perspective at this moment is because their bodies have already made a danger prediction in advance.

Qin Feng's current behavior is extremely dangerous!

Yet, Qin Feng seems as if he doesn't feel these dangers at all, continuing to focus on comparing the structural diagram and planning his climbing route.

Two minutes later, Qin Feng put the structural diagram away.

Just as Mr. Xu said, the moment Qin Feng put the structural diagram away, when the netizens saw the street below again, that terrifying sense of vertigo hit them ten times harder!

The host, He Bingbing, couldn't even care about her image and closed her eyes in fright.

The comments in the livestream room instantly decreased by more than half; only Mr. Xu gritted his teeth and held on, not letting himself be scared.

Qin Feng looked down and found that Trusi Aman's speed was quite fast, only about a hundred meters away from him.

If this were his previous life, Qin Feng would definitely have stopped to wait for Trusi Aman.

But Qin Feng didn't have the leisure for that right now.

The time stipulated by the system was getting closer and closer; the sooner Qin Feng set off, the sooner he could complete the task given by the system.

Qin Feng took a deep breath, then stretched out his hands and grabbed the edge of the I-beam above his head.

Mr. Xu's eyes widened immediately.

"Student Qin Feng isn't planning to just go across like that, is he?"

He Bingbing looked confused, not understanding what Mr. Xu meant by "go across like that."

Before she could ask, she saw Qin Feng simply grabbing the edge of the I-beam with both hands and moving forward directly!

He Bingbing's eyes widened instantly, and she covered her mouth in disbelief!

Without any safety measures, relying solely on his hands, Qin Feng was hanging under the I-beam and actually moving outward!

Is this something a human can do!

Could it be that Qin Feng really doesn't feel fear!

Mr. Xu was also dumbfounded, not knowing how to analyze it.

Absurd, it was simply too absurd!

He now even suspected that Qin Feng had strong world-weary tendencies!

Otherwise, it would be impossible for a normal person to have absolutely no reverence for death!

And it would be even more impossible to perform such actions that transcend human limits!

"Brave people get to enjoy the world first? No, I feel like brave people get to say goodbye to the world first."

"Damn, this has got my blood boiling; I want to open the window and jump down right now!"

"Buddy, I'm the exact opposite of you. I'm lying on the floor right now and don't want to get up at all; I'm planning to lie on this floor for the rest of my life."

"This guy's first-person perspective has shattered my extreme sports dream. With his way of playing, I'm afraid I'd be scared to death before I even fell."

"I still think the saying from our ancestors makes a lot of sense: it's better to live a wretched life than to die well."

"Bro, do we really have to get this first place? Isn't living a good life better than anything? Take my advice, stop playing. You might be fine if you keep playing like this, but my heart can't take it anymore!"

Qin Feng's sudden extreme maneuver caused the livestream room to instantly fill with wails.
