v4 Chapter 8： , Uncut jade or dead wood?

Puyù or deadwood?

It's cold...!

There was a gust of wind blowing from nowhere, and the cold wind blew on Iǎ Jin, who is now thinly dressed, and he couldn't help but shiver.

The child raised his head and looked around. Now, he has no strength to scream anymore, and no strength to move around. He has always been in warm love from Iǎ to Da, and for the first time now, he is facing such a situation.

This kind of situation...

"Woo...Where are all the people..."

"What about people?"

"Father and Queen... Queen...

"Where did you... have gone..."

Holding his shoulders, this body shivered in the cold wind.

The wind blew across the desert, rolling up the dust and throwing it on his face. It's like playing with a humble maggot, without mercy, no mercy...

Gradually, the child became tired, sleepy, and tired.

He lay on the sand, curled up, pulling his clothes tight. Under the dual effects of sadness and panic, he chewed his tears, and slowly, slowly, fell into a deep sleep...

...

呲——

The moment of waking up from sleep was the sound of a liquid evaporating instantly.

What followed was a pain on his face.

The young prince suddenly opened his eyes and jumped up. He covered his face, yelled, and came to his senses.

Opening his eyes, the dazzling sunlight instantly filled his entire world. The hot air rushed into the child's nose as if it was impossible to breathe. He covered his burned face and looked around indifferently...

The desert is still this desert.

No one came to save themselves, and no one passed by. In my sleep, the scene in which someone happened to save myself after fainting did not appear. Obviously, the world is far less merciful, and I am not as lucky as the heroes in those heroic dramas.

No luck, what else do you have?

death.

During the day, the desert will kill people. As the prince of the Bucks Empire, Jin is still very clear about this.

Look at the direction of the sun, it should be morning, but the surrounding air is already hot enough to evaporate people! Only after waking up for a few minutes, he could feel the thirst in his throat and the pain on his skin.

pain?

Jin lowered his head and looked at his hands outside.

The upper skin has faded under the sun's exposure, and it is red and swollen. With a slight touch, the fiery tingling sensation pierced his nerves, making him painless.

Why is this...?

Jin raised his hands, feelings of grievance and indignation began to spread in his heart.

Why is it like this?

I am a prince...

Is the next heir to the throne of the Bucks Empire...

I should be in the royal city now, wearing comfortable silk clothes, and then listening to the teacher's teaching with Nini, and then going to the martial arts field to practice swords for a while, right? Why... I become like this now...

Jin was trembling, he raised his head and looked at the sky, the flame-emitting sun wheel unscrupulously continued to vent his energy. For this child, nature has no mercy at all. Or to be more accurate, being extra cruel to children and cubs is the most essential manifestation of nature.

No purpose, no direction. iǎ Jin dragged his tired body and began to walk on this desert.

There is no shelter from the sun, and I don't know where I am going. The water in the body quickly passed away as if the gate had been opened, and his saneness began to grow.

Walking, walking... walking...

One hour, two hours, three hours...

I Jin, who has no experience in desert journeys, committed the most unforgivable mistake. He was walking under the scorching sun, squandering his physical strength and wasting his strength. At last……

Snapped.

Under the blazing sun, the child finally couldn't hold it anymore, once again, fell on the sand...

...

For this world, what everyone can get is fair.

You only have one life, and nature can kill you at any time in ways you can't imagine.

If this world has not finished your heartbeat at this time, it is not that nature is giving you favors, but the world has not yet figured out how to better torture you and make you more afraid of death. After more time, I felt my powerlessness even more, and finally became physically and mentally haggard, and willingly stepped into death.

"howl

There was a howl of animals in the air.

This howl might not be too loud, but it was enough to wake the weak prince from the faint again.

He opened his eyes and raised his head. The surroundings have turned into night again. The cold was once again replacing the heat, eroding his skin, making his body numb.

pain?

No.

The pain has disappeared...

Jin supported his numb body with both hands and slowly stood up. In just one day and one night, his face was thin and his body was haggard and inhuman. But after he opened those bloodshot eyes, he still saw what was there.

Sand spot... Hyena? !

That's right, it is the sand hyena! This group of three-level monsters acting collectively in the desert, at this moment, they are hunting a group of sand dolphins!

The hunting battle between the prey and the hunter did not last long, and the sand-spotted hyenas quickly surrounded the group of sand dolphins. In the next moment, as a sand-spotted hyena burrowed into the sand and suddenly pulled a sand dolphin out of the sand, the feast of massacre began.

In the air, a strong smell of blood began to float.

If you change to the past, these **** smells may make the prince nauseous. But now, he swallowed his saliva and his haggard eyes widened! He immediately pulled out the saber around his waist and walked towards the sand hyenas step by step.

He is very strong.

You know, he has the strength of the refining level.

As a warrior at the refining level, wouldn't it be easy to disperse these monsters? Thinking back then, Duke Dai Lao also defeated three three-level three-level beasts by one person with his level of refinement! Since Duke Dai Lao can, then he must be able to too!

Thinking of this, iǎ Jin's courage began to grow stronger. The corners of his mouth grinned, making a thirsty sound. Step by step, go there...

Of course the sound of human footsteps cannot hide from the ears of hyenas. What's more, this guy who didn't have any hidden intrusion?

After a full meal, the headed Sand Hyena raised his head and turned around. After seeing the iǎjin, it pulled out a section of intestines from the sandfish's belly, and after eating it in twos or twos, it used its tongue and iǎn its mouth to look at the iǎn warily.

Jin smiled, he raised the sword in his hand, put on the invincible starting position, and then... rushed towards the sand-spotted hyena over there!

"howl!"

The hyena leader saw the coming, and jumped slightly to the side. Then, it bounced back like a spring, opened its mouth, and bit Jin's shoulder fiercely! The strong hyena pressed hard, and directly pressed the thin gold to the ground and stepped on it with its paws.

In just an instant, the victory or defeat has been divided.

And the victory at this moment, in addition to making iǎ Jin's life insecure, also caused a crack in the tower of dignity in his heart.

Lost?

Lost? !

so fast……?

How could it... so fast? ? ? ! ! !

Unfortunately, the hyena leader did not have the mind to appreciate the feelings of this human being. It kept biting iǎ Jin's shoulder, and it seemed that in a short time, the young prince was about to end up with the same fate as those sand dolphins.

However, after a long time, this hyena let go of its mouth, glanced at I Jin, turned its head, and left.

For them, just one bite can tell if the other party is their prey. Compared with the soft and juicy sandfish, this creature has a lot of bones after it bites down. Hyenas also need energy to tear their prey. If it is said that the energy of one bite is not as much as the energy of tearing this piece off, then why eat it? What's more, the sand dolphins there are enough for them to have a full meal.

Yes, Jin survived.

But this is not because he is too lucky, but because the hyena is not even willing to eat it.

This group of beasts gave him nothing except the humiliation he had never had before.

Not even death...

Jin clutched his bitten shoulder and sat blankly on the sand.

What does it mean to be injured in such a desert? Now, the child finally understands.

But what if you understand? What else can he do?

If this is in the city, then I am a prince, and of course there are many ways to help myself.

But now, this is not our own city, this is a desert.

Even if he is a prince... even if he is a king! These monsters will not put themselves in the eyes!

Prince is not omnipotent?

At this moment, Jin seems to have realized something.

He looked at the hyenas who were greedily eating food, thinking about his identity and the identity of these hyenas.

"Prince" is just an identity...

It turns out that besides this identity... I am nothing...

...

Two short hours passed, and the night became colder.

The sand dolphins over there have been eaten thoroughly, leaving only a dry skeleton standing in the desert.

After the sand-spotted hyenas ate and drank enough, they walked away. Naturally, they wouldn't take care of them if they were not worth eating and would not threaten them.

After a while, the world became quiet again, and even the last gust of wind... could not be heard in the air.

So thirsty...

Is it due to injury?

Or is it because the physical strength is close to the limit?

I don't know when it started, iǎ Jin suddenly found himself calm down.

There is no anger in his heart now, nor the unwillingness to be instantly defeated by a hyena.

The reason is very simple.

He is very thirsty.

His body needs water, and his brain does not even allow him to experience the feeling of humiliation and failure before meeting the requirement of "drinking water".

But...Where is the water?

Where is there water in this desert?

Jin looked up and saw the remains of sand dolphin over there at a glance. The next moment, he could not wait to rush over, trembling his hands into the blood-stained sand, holding up the red sand, and placing it in front of his mouth.

What are you... doing?

Seeing this action he was making now, Jin couldn't imagine it.

If you change to be your usual self, it is absolutely impossible to do such a thing, right?

But now, he did, and he refused the resistance in his mind, and he was heartily sucking in the little liquid remaining in the sand.

Dust poured into his mouth, invaded his lungs, and made him cough. But even so, he still held up the sand over and over again, greedily sucking in the water that might have been equal to zero!

His expression was greedy and primitive, and gradually, the child no longer looked like a "person". In fact, this is normal. Few people can still be a "person" in this situation. At this time, it's much easier to be a beast that doesn't care about anything than to be a "human", isn't it?

But... still thirsty...

Not enough to drink!

How to do?

How to do? !

So thirsty...

I really want to drink water...

I really want to drink water! I want to drink water

Without water, the child became more anxious. He shuddered and raised his body, looking at the endless desert around him, throwing away the dusty sand in his hands. After hesitating for a long time, he finally gritted his teeth, quickly took off his clothes, and then untied the belt...

Wow!

Water is water!

Jin's face showed joy. He was holding the liquid-stained clothes tremblingly, for fear of dropping a drop! After that, he raised his head, opened his mouth, and squeezed the water into his mouth heartily.

The sensation of the liquid slipping across the throat... it was so comfortable.

Why didn't I find it before? It turns out that being able to drink a sip of water is such a blessing, and being able to experience water vapor is such an amazing thing!

After drinking the water, Jin exhaled. He put the clothes in his hands on his shoulders again, looking at the skeleton wreckage in front of him. Although there is not much on it, there are more or less, there are still some debris...

Without hesitation, Jin directly grabbed the rib of a sandfish and scratched the bone with his teeth.

The sound of teeth and bones rubbing across the night sky, the only hope is to be able to scrape off even the last bits of crumbs, so that my hungry stomach can get a little bit of comfort.

After scraping one bone, go to the other. With these bones, he no longer had the prince's consciousness in his heart.

prince? What it is? Does this title make you survive?

If you can't, then why are you so obsessed with your identity?

Yes, I am not a **** prince now. It's a creature that needs to survive. Otherwise, nothing.

"It seems that you understand what it means to be'alive.' In the first lesson, you learned pretty well."

The sudden sound surprised the boy who was holding his bones and eating! But before he turned his head, the sandfish bones that were in his arms suddenly moved. Lancer's flames flickered from its withered pupils, Chiluǒ's spine twisted, and the skeleton went straight into the sand, and then emerged from the other side.

One person, standing there.

To be precise, it was a man with a cloak and unable to see his face.

The man was covered in a dark cloak, and slowly sat on the back of the sand dolphin. Hands wearing black gloves stretched out from under the cloak and gently stroked the head of this sand dolphin.

"who are you?!"

Jin wiped his mouth and immediately pulled out the saber around his waist, alert.

"Did you kidnap me?"

Facing iǎ Jin’s yelling question, the man said unabashedly: “It’s not wrong, it’s me.”

Jin gritted his teeth: "What is your purpose? Speak out!"

"I have no purpose. In other words, watching you suffer is my purpose."

The visitor stroked the skull of a sandfish, with a cold voice, and said this somewhat creepy answer.

Jin squeezed the sword in his hand hard, and he stared at the unidentified man in front of him. I want to, but I dare not.

"Which...what is this? Do you have enemies with my father? Or against the Bucks? You...you do this...my father can never spare you!"

"Pay attention to your words, human."

The man in the black cloak did not speak. The one who said this was someone who appeared next to him who also wore the black cloak. The other party's face is still invisible, but there are two light blue rays of light in it. Behind the man in the cloak, a dozen bone soldiers walked out slowly, surrounded by gold.

From iǎ to large, maybe iǎ Jin has seen countless appalling things. But now, seeing these bone soldiers next to him is still frightening the young prince. His teeth trembled, and the sword in his hand shook involuntarily.

"What you are facing now is a great being. Any disrespectful words may make you suffer more. For your good, human prince, I advise you to pay attention to your words and deeds."

Jingen did not listen to this man. He looked at the bone soldiers around him. After shivering for a while, the child suddenly turned his head and rushed directly to the gap that the bone soldiers had not completely surrounded.

He rushed out, but the undead had no intention of coming to chase after him. because……

Wow

A gust of wind pressed down from mid-air.

Accompanied by this unmovable wind pressure, a behemoth suddenly came in front of the child.

Long.

A black dragon with golden pupils spread its wings and stared at the child closely. And on the back of this giant dragon, two cloaked men of slightly stature jumped off again, and one of them jumped directly in front of Jin. A
