Volume 5 (11) The Desert of Death, Zhu Gongzi v. Zhenxin(1/2)

The sky is already shining with stars. Such a brilliant night sky is full of the breath of death.

Jun Yu lay on the sand, sometimes awake and sometimes confused. Gradually, he became less and less when he woke up. In the confusion, there seemed to be a faint soft and sweet voice in his ears, which was Tuosang's voice, and his gentle hands stretched out: "Jun Yu, I'm here, I'm here to look for you..."

"TaoSan...TaoSan..." She opened her mouth and tried her best to shout and respond, but the sound from her chapped lips was so small that she couldn't even listen to it.

Jun Yu shook her head and blinked her eyes. There was no one in front of her, everything was an illusion. The last glimmer of hope and enthusiasm for life were completely cut off. She looked dark again in front of her, lying on the sand, almost unconscious.

The starlight in the sky had dimmed, leaving only a thin moon that was equally dull and coldly hung above his head. In a daze, Jun Yu suddenly felt a wetness on his lips.

She barely opened her eyes, and a black shadow sat silently beside her, resting her head on her chest, and the wetness on her lips was the dripping water he was dripping into her mouth.

At this moment, she was completely dehydrated and could not drink water, so she could only drip slowly like this.

"Taosang..." His eyes were blurry and he couldn't see clearly the people around him. Jun Yu felt ecstatic. He lowered his head and leaned in the wide embrace, and barely stretched out his weak hands to hold his waist.

"In your heart, there is always only one Takusan!"

This tone is as plain as stagnant water, and it is definitely not Takusan's voice.

Jun Yu's hand that barely held his waist down softly, suddenly raised his head, but his head was very heavy and could hardly struggle.

He looked at her soft and weak hand, looked at the deep wound on her left shoulder, slowly moved the water bag in his hand away and placed it carefully aside.

There is still most of the water in this water bag. Next to it is a small bag of dry food that has been stolen.

In the first two days, he had been drinking water in moderation, maintaining his physical strength and estimating the time he could support it. However, two days later, he began to stop drinking water. No matter how thirsty he was, he endured it and almost forgot that he had this life-saving water bag. Because he had always known that the person who was struggling in front of him had never drunk a drop of water. So far, she had not drunk water for seven days, and with the journey every night, if it weren't for the deep internal strength support, she would have been buried in the desert.

She forced her eyes to open her eyes and looked at the plain and numb eyes, "Zhu Yu... why are you coming back?"

"I can't kill you with my own hands, so I have to see you die with my own eyes!"

"oh!"

He listened to her faint voice and looked at her hand that she couldn't even lift. For many years, he had never seen or thought that the heroic young man would one day be like an ordinary person in desperate situation. At this time, she was no longer a Fengcheng Feishang, and she had completely disappeared from her peerless charm. She was unkempt, dying, and extremely dry!

The bleak moonlight shone on her body, and her face turned completely as white as death. There was a pain in her heart. He gently hugged her, touched her cold cheeks, and said hatefully: "Jun Yu, I have never seen a woman who is uglier than you again!"

"oh!"

The pain in my heart could not suppress the deep hatred, he stared at her fiercely: "You are lost and there is no water. I hope you will at least catch up with the horse's hooves. But I waited for a night, but you didn't catch up with..."

"Zhu Yu...you...I..."

He stared at her tightly: "What are you? What are me?"

Jun Yu shook his head slightly and didn't speak.

A self-deprecating smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, "In this desert, water is life. I am not Tuosang, how could you share your life with Jun Yu! You think so, right?"

"No! I don't want to implicate you...if..."

"If I am really your enemy, you will follow you without hesitation, right? You can not drink the enemy's water, but it doesn't matter if you follow the enemy who knows the way, right?"

Jun Yu did not make a sound, which is considered as the default.

He stared at her hatefully, his eyes almost as crazy as when chasing her, "I'm not even as good as your enemies!"

"And, after I laughed at you like that, we are neither enemies nor friends anymore, are we? Yes, I am not your friend at all, who told you to treat me as a friend?"

"I still stubbornly thought that although you didn't like me over the years, you should at least know my heart for you!" Seeing that Jun Yu was still silent, he said angrily: "You don't like me, for fear of drinking my water, you owe me even more. So you would rather die than 'implicit' me..."

Seeing that he was yelling harder, Jun Yu couldn't help but smile: "Do you think you are good? You are not good! You have a lot of mistakes, your temper is bad and awkward..."

"So what if I'm awkward? So what if I'm bad? I can't control others, but you must understand and believe me!"

"Why should I forgive you? You chase me and you want to kill me, how dare I catch up with you again?"

"You will be afraid too? What excuses? Even if you see me going crazy and I chase you, you cannot doubt me! You don't like me, but at least you should believe me as much as you believe in Takusan!"

Jun Yu was speechless, so he simply shut up to save some effort.

Seeing that she was silent, Zhu Yu's self-deprecating smile appeared on the corner of her mouth, "Jun Yu, you always say you believe me, but you are still wary of me after all! If it were Takusang, even if he was crazy, you wouldn't be wary of him!"

"If it was Takusan, he wouldn't cut me with a knife no matter how crazy he was. If it was Takusan, he would never laugh at me and leave alone in that situation; if it was Takusan, he wouldn't ask me to compromise for anger!"

He heard her faint voice suddenly become fluent and happy, and he couldn't help but hold her weak hand and said angrily: "Don't keep saying that annoying person, okay? I want to kill someone when I hear his name!"

She didn't answer. The drops of life-saving water made her eyes light up a little. She looked around: "Zhu Yu, where is your horse?"

"Kill!"

"Kill?"

Zhu Yu suddenly laughed: "I hate you, so I treat it as you kill it to vent my anger!"

"oh!"

After killing the sweat-blooded BMW, he almost fell into a state of complete madness. He lay on the hot sand like he died. He woke up and stood up and walked back in the direction he remembered. He was not far away, so just as Jun Yu and Heima were buried in the sand to avoid the scorching sun, he had quietly walked behind her.

At that time, his hatred for her reached its peak, and he wished she could die if she fell to the ground. However, he himself didn't understand why he hated this person so much but refused to give up and kept following her quietly. Anyway, she couldn't walk fast in the sand, and she didn't pay any attention to the possibility of living creatures following him. So without the horse, he kept a safe distance from her more easily.

"She is already full of caution against me! She would rather die than chase me and walk with me! I hate her so much, so I want to see how she died thirsty in this desert." He repeated this thought in his heart and followed him more firmly.

Finally, a few days later, she really fell down!

It was clearly something I had been waiting for for a long time, but why did I suddenly feel heart-breaking and heart-breaking pain and fear like the world being destroyed?

How could she die before her eyes like this? Even if she wants to die, she should take her last breath with her!

When did Jun Yu close his eyes again? These days, he was so thirsty that he was dying. Even though he drank some water and ate some food, how could he recover in a while?

Under the moonlight, there was a plain white veil on the sand on her left hand.

Zhu Yu picked it up, looked carefully at the words on the brocade handkerchief under the moonlight, then looked at Jun Yu, stuffed it into her hand, and said angrily: "Only people like Tuosang can write such disgusting things! The ridiculous Fengcheng Feishuai actually brought this thing with him. Don't you think it's so vulgar?"

"I think it's great!"

"Hmph!" Zhu Yu snorted coldly, grabbed a handful of sand and threw it away from a distance. After a while, he whispered: "If I had known you like this kind of tacky thing, what if I had written ten or eight songs?"

Jun Yu suddenly remembered something and forced himself to open his eyes and said, "There have been several times these days, I have heard some strange sounds, but I haven't seen anyone after looking back?"

"I judged your actions when I saw you and the horse hiding in the sand, so I hid in the sand during the day, and at night, I took advantage of the night and was far behind you, so of course you can't see me!"

In the past two days, he was almost not far behind her, but she was so thirsty that she was too busy to care about her. Even if he was close, he couldn't find it!

She remembered that he had been following him in this desert where it was not easy to hide for so long, and she really didn't know how many ways she thought of it. She shook her head: "Zhu Yu, thank you so much for your hard work!"

"Hmph, it's not the first time I've been following you! I've been following you for so long in the snow and ice of Nangabawa. You still don't know! Fortunately, Takusan still thinks that his kung fu is amazing! And you, there's only Takusan in your eyes and hearts, how could you find me following? Hehe, I think even if I walk in front of you, you can't see me at all!"

"You, alas!" she sighed, not knowing what to say at all.

After a while, she sighed again: "I'm all about you who have implicated you!"

"It's not that you have implicated me, it's because I don't know the direction. My horse is dead, I don't know the way anymore. I don't want to die alone in the desert..." The night wind is getting colder, and Jun Yu's face is getting colder. He clasped her weak and cold hands tightly, and then smiled, "I thought you would follow you quietly after you know the way. If I had known that you really didn't know the way at all, I would never care about your life or death. I had long hoped that you and Zhenmuthel would both suffer and benefit. You know, once you walk out of the desert, I can become king. There are still many power, wealth, and beauty waiting for me."

"Oh, really?"

Zhu Yu avoided her gaze, and his dry voice was a little embarrassed: "Of course it's true. I hate you to the core, just want to see you die of thirst. So, you don't have to feel sorry at all."

He looked at Jun Yu's smiling gaze again, and suddenly said loudly: "Jun Yu, don't you believe it? Tell you, I have long stopped thinking about you! I have won many battles over the years, and every time a tribe will send my beauty to him. The family has already had a lot of wives and concubines. I am immersed in the gentle village all day long, I don't know how happy it is..." He looked at her almost completely dry, haggard and dusty face caused by dehydration these days, and said in a stern voice, "Those women, each of them is much more beautiful than you now, how could I still take you to heart?"

Jun Yu smiled and nodded: "Oh, okay, so I really don't have to thank you."

"That's right, don't be grateful to me. I have never taken you at all. I'm desperately chasing you and slashing you. When you kill Zhenmuthel, I really want to take the opportunity to kill you."

Jun Yu did not answer and closed his eyes slightly.

After a while of silence, he suddenly laughed again: "Jun Yu, do you hate my personality? If it weren't for this, we might have walked out of the desert! It would be difficult to go out now!"

Junyu did not answer.

"I don't know why. When I was a child, I often liked to go against you. When I grew up, I never wanted to go against you again, but every time I saw you and Takusan, I couldn't help but go crazy. So, we had a very unpleasant fight every time! Alas, I'm such an annoying person!"

Jun Yu nodded: "Well, that's it. Sometimes, you are really a bad and annoying person."

Zhu Yu glared at her angrily: "What do you mean? I will tell the truth myself, why are you telling the truth?"

Jun Yu felt his eyelids become heavier, but when he saw his angry look, he couldn't help laughing.

Zhu Yu stroked her bloody lips, then gently touched the wound on her shoulder that was cut by herself, and listened to her very weak breathing and whispered: "Jun Yu, I am so crazy. I actually chopped you with a knife! I rarely lose my mind, but every time I meet you, I am so crazy. I hurt you every time and have never been kind to you... I... I deserve to die..."

Jun Yu smiled silently, and Zhu Yu glared at her: "You are still so stupid. When you see me slashing you with a knife, why did you run back to save me? If you weren't injured, you could have lasted for a few more days. I blocked your pursuit and slashed you again, which made you fall into such a desperate situation! After all, I hurt you..."

"Jun Yu..."

He called her name softly, and saw her closing her eyes and opening them again. Under the stars, his dead-seasoned gaze suddenly became a little brighter: "Jun Yu, I can't get out, so we have to die together."

Jun Yu's dim gaze turned and he almost closed again.

Jun Yu suddenly felt a chill on his face, and a tear fell on his face. She reluctantly looked at Zhu Yu's blurry tears, closed her eyes silently, and just whispered: "Zhu Yu, you can drink some water too."

Zhu Yu shook his head.

Although Jun Yu closed his eyes, he seemed to see him shaking his head and said softly: "Zhu Yu, if we really have only one way to die, we will go to the underworld at the same time."

Zhu Yu's whole body was shocked, and his wooden eyes suddenly shone brightly. He nodded slightly and drank a little water, which made him barely wet his throat.

That night, the two of them were not in a hurry to travel. The next morning, the sky suddenly had some long-lost dark clouds.

Zhu Yuxi said: "Will it rain?"

Jun Yu shook his head. This extravagant hope was so high that it was a hundred times more difficult than saying that gold was falling from the sky. Sure enough, after a while, a gust of wind blew away the dark clouds above his head. Fortunately, it was a cloudy day, and although it was dull, it was enough to make people feel happy.

Jun Yu has always liked the sunny weather, but there has never been that moment. She was so afraid and hated the sun hanging high in the sky. Now she was in a cloudy day and was a little excited, "Zhu Yu, we can hurry up and hurry up."
