Human beings can do anything in order to survive. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
The desire to continue has long been engraved in the genes of human beings and passed down from generation to generation, and it is an instinct that cannot be erased after thousands of years.
Natural disasters are the conditions for this scene of hell on earth, and the desire for survival of human beings is the root cause of this scene.
The geography of the port of Yabukana is not good, although it has a natural deep-water channel, but there is no shelter from the wind and rain outside the port, and the southeast wind blowing from the ocean can directly stir up waves in the port.
Fortunately, however, the fleet came by the southeast wind, and when they arrived at the port of Yabukarna, it was the dry season after the rainy season had subsided, and there were very few strong winds. This is the basis for Yabukana to become a port.
When this is not the main thing.
The prosperity of the port of Yabukana is due to a sweet spring not far from the port.
Amir's grandfather was once a ubiquitous and impoverished sand thief, leading a group of unclothed companions to survive in the barren desert.
Contrary to common sense, the sand pirates who survive in this desert will not raid caravanserans, but adventurers who are poorer than them. The caravans that dared to walk in the desert were basically extremely well defended, and they were not at all the objects that they could rob by sand thieves who lacked clothes and had poor weapons.
However, when people are red with hunger, the reason will fade.
In an existential crisis, Amir's grandfather has red eyes and takes a risk against a small caravan. It was strange that the little caravan was full of money, and their way back was not to the east, but to the west.
Strange as it was, Amir's grandfather didn't care about the details and followed the little caravan all the way to the far south. Along the way, the small caravan was very vigilant, and Amir's grandfather had no chance to attack it.
It wasn't until they saw the coastline that the merchants finally let down their guard and sang and danced around the campfire......
That night, Amir's grandfather was not only given a large amount of sweet water that no one had ever discovered, but he was even given a boat. The sand pirates put on the merchants' costumes, which lowered the vigilance of the merchant ships on the shore, and then another killing.
In this way, the small merchants who had escaped the exploitation of the nobles lost their goods and lives, while a poor sand thief was given a sweet spring, a port, and a boat.
This is the origin of the port of Yabucana.
And Amir's family, relying on the port of Yabukana, has changed from an ordinary sand thief to a hegemon with heavy troops and wealth.
But no matter how powerful the force is, it does not dare to open the door in the face of this overwhelming wave of refugees.
At the heart of the port of Yabukarna is the castle of the Amir family. The castle is 50 meters away, and no shacks, tents or any structures are allowed. Countless private soldiers armed with bows and crossbows poked their heads out behind the castle's arrow stacks.
At the beginning of the disaster, the Amir family would provide refugees with water at a high price, but when the refugees swarmed all over the mountains, even large families like Amir became frightened and began to close their doors and huddle in the castle in fear.
In this predatory desert, there is no difference between a citizen and a thief. If there's anything more terrible than a hungry beast, it's hungry humans. When hungry and thirsty humans gather in hordes, their destructive power can only be described as catastrophe.
Along the way, the scenes Chen Yin saw had already refreshed his cognition of the word human. Here, the more people bully the lesser, and the strong bully the weak, which is really a big fish eating small fish, and a small fish eating shrimp.
The already small number of survival resources have long been divided up by the upper echelons, and those who are completely at the bottom of the biological chain are left to lie on the side of the street and wait for death.
But even a man who was waiting for death, even if he was eaten by a rat and could not resist it, when a human with the smell of fresh flesh and blood came to him and poured him a mouthful of precious water, the person who had been relieved to wait for the dead immediately showed his teeth and bit down on the throat of the living benefactor.
This has nothing to do with morality, nothing about right or wrong, and all that is left in his mind at this moment is the word "live".
Chen Yin shook off the blood on his sword and looked at the countless people lying on the ground waiting to die on the street with a blank expression.
“…… Look at it, this is their fate, you can change one, you can change two, but even if you give them all your flesh and blood, they will not survive this dry season. So at the end of the day, you can't change anything. ”
Vittoria, who used to be a saint, can see it, although it is a little uncomfortable in this hell on earth, but after all, she is still much calmer than Chen Yin, the first brother.
"I'm not that stupid." Chen Yin shook his head, "The sand people all have wolf-like personalities, and they were all dead fish just now, but now? Look at the look in their eyes......"
Many "dead fish" witnessed the scene of Chen Yin feeding the water, and they naturally regarded Chen Yin's kindness as weakness, and their blood-red eyes widened one by one, and they were wary of each other and slowly moved towards Chen Yin's side.
Although no one spoke, the strange thing was that Chen Yin easily understood their eyes: kill this person! Snatched his food! Drink all his water! Then sell his women and goods to the great tribes, so that he can survive this dry season!
When countless greedy, eager, and vicious eyes focused on Chen Yin, Chen Yin couldn't help laughing.
"Hehehehe...... Hahahaha...... I'm really sick. Chen Yin suddenly slapped himself fiercely, drew out his blood-stained long sword and yelled at the group of people who only had the survival instinct left: "Come on! If you want to kill me, come here! ”
Behind Chen Yin, a huge black panther slowly walked out of the light mist, staring at everyone in front of him with murderous eyes, and everyone who looked at it began to feel a chill on the back of their necks.
They hesitated.
The person in front of him is obviously not easy to mess with.
The fierce sandfolk hesitated between fighting hard and making a last-ditch fight or leaving their strength behind to wait for the next opportunity.
Some gave up, closed their eyes and fell to the ground again, breathing slowly, trying their best to conserve what little strength they had left. And some others who had given up hope, Zhang Ka's chapped lips and hoarse roared and rushed towards Chen Yin.
All of them, without weapons.
Some are just nails and teeth.
Without even using the black panther's hands, Chen Yin himself easily slashed these people to death with his sword skills that had been strictly trained for more than half a year.
These people are basically in the prime of life, and there is even a teenage boy among them, who was cut off by Chen Yin, tilted his head and lay there silently panting, although he was about to die in the next second, there was no unwillingness on his face, and he was still breathing greedily, delaying the arrival of death.
Chen Yin glanced deeply at the corpses all over the ground, and said lightly, "Let's go." ”
"Hmm." Vittoria nodded.
When the two walked away, the "dead fish" came to life, and slowly crawled to the side of the corpses, watching the people around them vigilantly, while greedily sucking the blood in the corpses.
With these blood supplements, they can survive for a longer period of time.
The last of them was the boy with his spine cut off, and several of the strongest sandfolk were staring at each other around him.
Finally, the strong man with only one ear won the battle, and as the others gave up one by one, the only one ear left by the boy's side was the only one left, and he immediately opened his mouth and gnawed at the boy's wound......
"Whoosh!"
"Poof!"
One ear looked at the extra arrow on his chest in amazement, sucked a mouthful of the young man's blood with all his might, and finally died contentedly.
Chen Yin walked quickly to the young man's side, kicked open the corpse with one ear, and took out a card......
In the next moment, the white light shone on the young man's body, and as the soft white light slowly merged into his body, the young man's wounds healed quickly at a speed visible to the naked eye. The young man slowly opened his eyes, silently touched the wounds on his body that had healed, and then knelt down in front of Chen Yin without saying a word.
"What's your name?"
"Da, Ada......" The young man respectfully buried his head and made a five-body throwing gesture.
"Is there anyone else in the house?"
"No more. My sisters were bought by the clan, and my brothers are dead, leaving me alone......" Ada said calmly.
"Follow me in the future."
"Do you care?"
"Of course."
"Ada meets the master......"
On the blood-stained street, in the middle of a group of hungry wolf-like sandmen, a sandman boy reverently knelt in front of the black-haired youth.
Vittoria watched this scene for a long time......
……
"Aren't you weird?" Chen Yin looked at Ada, who was honestly holding the sand lizard, and said to Vittoria.
"What's weird?" The girl seemed to be in a good mood, and her long ponytail flicked one after another.
"Strange ...... me"
"Hehe, it's weird, why did you do that? Know that your healing card is worth at least two gold no matter where it is. With these two gold, not to mention this kind of kohlrabi-like sand people, even the petite and cute sand girl can buy more than a dozen, which is still the price in the Golden Harbor. ”
Vittoria looked at Chen Yin with interest: "I believe that with your force here, let alone buy, even if it is robbed, they don't dare to say anything, why do you have to save that person?" ”
Vittoria said, gesturing to the tall buildings that looked like little castles, and the balconies of those buildings were staring probe.
"I don't know, you're going to be nervous."
Chen Yin's words, Vittoria was noncommittal, just looked at Chen Yin with a smile......
"Okay, okay, I'll just say that, don't look at me like that!" Chen Yin pushed Vittoria's head aside in disgust, "I admit it, I remember the feeling of lying in the plane waiting to die when I just fell into this ghost place!" That's okay, right? ”
It was not long ago, but it always felt like a long time had passed. At that time, Chen Yin was a piece of frozen meat, lying quietly in the cockpit waiting for death to come......
…… Until, a girl in a short skirt with a pair of slender ** rescued him.
"Now that I think about it, I think I've suffered a loss." The girl looked at Chen Yin with a smile, "You saved him, and he will treat you as his master." That...... What about the fact that I saved you? ”
“…… What do you want to do? Facing this eccentric life-saving benefactor, Chen Yin couldn't help but have a headache.
"Well, I want to think about it...... Heard you can sing? Sing a song and I'll listen to it, if the story is good, the account between us will be written off. The black-haired girl squinted her eyes and smiled like a stealing cat, and a spring onion rolled her long hair in a gentle circle.
“…… Waiting to get on board. "The grace of saving his life is pressed down, how can Chen Yin not agree? Just pinch your nose and admit it.
Chen Yin's rented sailboat didn't leave, maybe the captain was trustworthy, maybe the captain expected Chen Yin to help clear the case. Whatever the reason, the beautiful schooner did not leave after all, drifting far away on the sea outside the harbor.
In the entire port of Yabukarna, only the ship of the Amir family is still parked in the port, so the only way to return to the ship is to turn to the Amir family for help. Since entering the port of Yabukarna, the two have been heading towards the castle of the Amir family.
Finally, the eyes suddenly opened up.
The Amir family did not allow others to pitch tents within 50 meters of the castle, so an open square was formed.
When Chen Yin, the girl, and Ada stepped into this square with two sand lizards, an arrow suddenly fell at Chen Yin's feet.
"Next free water wait tomorrow morning! Wait until tomorrow to buy water! Continue to die to the former in the castle under martial law! ”
On the high walls of the castle, the archers shouted.
If it weren't for the fact that Chen Yin and Vittoria were not dressed simply, the arrow would have shot people directly just now, and there would have been no warning at all.
"Go on, Amir called." Chen Yin lit up the card ring, and the crystal clear 5 soul crystals on it were emitting a faint blue light, which was extremely eye-catching even if it was far away.
The guard hurried away. After a while, a big fat man with a snow-white turban slowly moved to the edge of the castle, and several soldiers holding tower shields protected him firmly in the center.
"I wonder what you're looking for me?" The soldier next to the big fat man shouted.
"Borrow a boat, our ship is docked in the open sea." Chen Yin replied loudly.
After muttering a few words to the fat turban, the soldier shouted to Chen Yin, "10 5-mana servant cards, 5 5-mana magic cards!" We'll send you there. ”
Chen Yin looked at Vittoria, and she smiled happily.
"Seeing me so happy? Why don't you ......?"
"Okay." Before Chen Yin finished speaking, Vittoria's figure had already appeared on the city wall!
Flash? Transmission? Peer?
Chen Yin didn't pay attention to what card Vittoria used, but this jump without warning really scared him.
In the next second, before everyone could react, Vittoria had jumped back with a thin soldier.
"How? Lord Amir? Now again, how about the price? Vittoria threw the skinny soldier to the ground and said with a malicious expression.
