Volume 5 (11) The Desert of Death, Zhu Gongzi v. Zhenxin(2/2)
Zhu Yu watched her slowly recover some vitality because she drank a little water and ate something. The slightest bit of joy made her dry face shine in an instant.
He laughed, held the horse with one hand and took her hand and walked forward.
Jun Yu held his hand in the back hand and smiled and said, "Zhu Yu, we must hold on! Mr. and Tuosang are definitely looking for us, and we will definitely walk out of this desert."
"They are looking for you, and they will also look for me - your friend?" Zhu Yu stared at her tightly, "You never want to be my friend! I don't need friends at all! I am a selfish person, and you must get whatever you like! I am not a saint. It is impossible and hypocritical to say that as long as the person I like is happy, I will be happy. ... If the person I like is with others, how can I feel happy?"
"Zhu Yu!"
Zhu Yu grabbed her hand hard, and the smile on his face completely disappeared: "If Tuosang married another woman, would you feel happy?"
Jun Yu remained silent.
"If you walk out of the desert, you are still you, and I am still me! I would rather die in this desert!"
Zhu Yu almost shook her hand away and walked in front alone.
Jun Yu sighed in his heart, stopped talking, and pulled him a little further.
In the vast sea of sand, the two of them walked around, not knowing how to get out of this completely lost sea of death.
The two of them identified the direction and hid in the morning and came out at night. Although they never returned to that starting point, they were lost in a new sea of sand. It seemed that no matter how they circled around, they could not get out of the Wuzhi Mountain of the sand.
No matter how costly they were, the water and food were cut off. It was another two days without any drop of water, and there was still a vast sea of sand ahead. At this time, the two of them no longer thought about getting out of the desert, but searching for the breath of water like the most sensitive prey.
In front is a piece of red and white sandstone, surrounded by a vast sea of sand. It was already evening. There was no bird in the sky and no shadow of plants or animals on the ground.
The big dark horse barely survived by relying on a few groves he occasionally caught. At this moment, it also drooped its head weakly, foamed at the mouth, and its four hooves no longer had the strength to kick around the sand.
These days, although the two of them walked together, they rarely spoke. On several occasions, Jun Yu wanted to break the dead silence of the vast sea of sand, and only shouted "Zhu Yu", but when he saw his complete indifference, he could no longer speak. After being silent for many days, they almost felt mute, and even if they wanted to speak, their voices were completely hoarse.
The first time there was a shortage of water, the two of them could have been sucked for a few more days, but this time, the water was cut off for only two days, so they could hardly survive.
On a cool night, when it was time to get up, both of them were exhausted and were still lying on the sandstone sand.
Jun Yu kept closing his eyes, not knowing whether he fell asleep or fell into a coma.
After a long time, Zhu Yu slowly got up and sat next to her, put her head on his chest, raised his head to look at the stars in the sky, and whispered: "Jun Yu, we really can't get out!"
Jun Yu barely raised his eyelids, and he could feel weak when he heard his voice.
"Jun Yu, I have a lot to say to you..."
"oh!"
"Jun Yu, last year on New Year's Eve, I lurked to Xining Mansion to see you, but I saw Tuosang."
"Oh, I got married to him the day before New Year's Eve..." Jun Yu's dim gaze showed a deep sadness, "We agreed to go to a good place after the war is over, but now, I can't even see him for the last time."
The water all over my body had evaporated, and I could not even shed tears.
Zhu Yu lowered his head, caressed her lips, which were bleeding and scarred and dried, and said softly: "Stop talking."
Jun Yu nodded and suddenly whispered: "Zhu Yu, I can't repay you for being so kind to me. I really don't want to repay you."
"Jun Yu, you have never been sorry for me." Zhu Yu was silent for a while, and then said slowly: "Just a few days before New Year's Eve last year, my father died and I sent Zhu Gang away. I think you are the only one in this world. So I came to find you quietly, but I saw you and Tuosang together! I was completely desperate at that time and swore that I would never meet you again in my life... I hate you very much, hate you to the core, but the more I hate you, the more I want to see you every day... You don't know my situation, and I am wishful thinking, but I still can't help but hate you. You said, am I unreasonable?..."
"Zhu Yu, you don't hate me, you will never hate me..." Jun Yu wanted to say something, but Zhu Yu stroked her chapped lips again, shook her head, and signaled her not to speak again.
"After New Year's Eve, I completely gave up. I was unwilling to be a minister of Zhenmuthel for the rest of my life, and I wanted to find another way out. So I used all my might to fight and expand. I have been planning for a long time and married the daughter of several powerful tribal leaders, hoping to get rid of Zhenmuthel as soon as possible. I have prepared very well and look forward to taking advantage of this war, which is a great opportunity to be independent..."
"Before going to the war, I made another vow to never show mercy to your subordinates. I have repeatedly reminded myself not to pay attention to you. Since you have chosen others, I have no hope at all, so there is no need to show mercy to your subordinates. Later, you sent Tuosan to attack me, and I feel that you regard me as an enemy, and you hate you even more, and you want to kill you immediately..."
"You killed Shimmuter, at that moment, I really had murderous intentions, because you can't be with Takusan if you die. But, but...ah..."
"You don't have water and don't know the way. I thought that the opportunity has come. Junyu, who can do everything, finally asks me! I feel so happy, so I mock you with all my heart! I wish I could see you dying of anger! After saying those words, I set off happily, but I stopped after walking a short distance. I waited for you to catch up. I thought you would catch up even if you don't do it for yourself and Takusang, but you didn't... I killed the horse to vent my anger and quietly walked behind you along the way! At first, I thought we could walk out of this desert, so I kept telling myself not to let you discover, don't talk to you, and ignore you, because once we walk out of the desert, we go our separate ways and see you again."
"After you fell, I couldn't help it anymore... After that, we set out together, and I was afraid that we would part immediately after walking out of this desert. I decided not to pay attention to you anymore. Although I ignored you, I felt very happy when I thought you were by my side all the time, and even hunger became not so completely intolerable. I had never dared to have any other extravagant wishes. I just wanted to see you, and I was very satisfied if I could see you often..."
"Now, we can never get out again! I regret it so much, why did you ignore you at that time? If it weren't for this, we would have been very happy these days. I still have many things to say to you..."
Under the starlight, Zhu Yu's lips were completely dry and cracked, and there were a lot of blisters. Jun Yu reluctantly reached out to stop him from continuing to speak and consuming more water.
Zhu Yu grabbed her weak hand and put it on his lips, his eyes full of smiles: "Jun Yu, in fact, you treat me very well. I am crazy and want to cut you down. You still refuse to give up. I want to save me... I met you so early. I had many opportunities, but I have never seized the opportunity and did a lot of wrong things. Now, alas..."
Jun Yu stared at his companion here silently: I have been good to him for many years? Why do I always feel sad, suffocated by despair, and cold sweats all over my head? Compared to his avalanche, his life-sacrificing rescue and following death deep into the desert, what have I done for him? What can I do for him?
How could I have the honor of all my life that I would like to be favored by him?
She sighed softly: "Zhu Yu, I really don't want you. If you really have a next life, we will never meet you again."
Zhu Yu nodded: "Yes. I hope that after I die, I will go to the eighteen levels of hell, and never rebirth in the world, and never rebirth in the world, so that I will never meet you again, and repeat everything in this life..." He laughed, "If I reincarnate, I also hope that I will become a cow and a horse and separate you from you into two worlds; if I become a human being, I will be a stranger from the ends of the world, even if I pass by, I will never know each other, nor look back or intersect..."
The eyes that had already cracked could no longer cry, but they were twitching and painful like their hearts. Jun Yu grabbed his hand, but he had no strength at all and hung down like a dead branch.
Zhu Yu hugged her, looked at her dimmering eyes, and said softly: "Jun Yu, you have to hold on... Even if you want to die, let me take your last breath with you..."
Jun Yu closed his eyes and could hardly hear what he was saying. He felt dizzy again in his mind. In the world, whether it was love, hate, or concern, it seemed that it was almost over.
