Just after five o'clock, Ye Qing got up. Fortunately, there was a small river nearby the industrial area, so Ye Qing fetched some water to wash up before starting his morning exercises in the industrial area.
When Ye Qing was in the military, morning exercises consisted of running with a load. Now, in this place, he no longer had military equipment. Ye Qing made a round and found a discarded piece of iron in a factory building. He weighed it, and it was roughly twenty to thirty pounds, similar to the weight he was accustomed to carrying in the military.
Ye Qing tied the piece of iron to his body and ran around the industrial area for a total of five laps, approximately thirty kilometers, before he finally put down the iron block.
