night.

Human beings are not big, so they don’t need much meat to fill their stomachs. Of course, they don’t last that long. These days, I have tasted the feeling of an empty stomach. In this case, it is really difficult to think about the benefits of it.

To be honest, every time when my consciousness is about to disappear, hunger will suddenly wake me up.

I kept whispering in her ear that I wanted to eat meat for two days, but I got nothing except food that I couldn't swallow. Every time I threw the food on the floor or spit it out, I heard her sigh.

I didn't make any response, and of course I couldn't. In the past two days, my body was getting weaker and weaker. My whole body was cold and stained with blood. She could see it.

"I have two pieces of good news, do you want to hear it?"

How could there be good news? Several humans tried to get close to me in the middle of the night last night, but they were noticed by her. I stayed awake because of hunger, and finally spent the night in fear. I knew that in the eyes of other humans, I had long been

A dead man.

She didn't expect me to respond. She gently sat down next to me, took out the food and rubbed it in front of me, "I know you don't want to eat this, just bear with it a little longer and listen to the good news I have to say."

"Today, the lady asked me if you were awake, but I made an excuse and ignored it. I probably won't ask you again until I get to the ancient city."

this…

What does it have to do with me?

"Also, I heard from the ladies that there is a dangerous place ahead. After passing through that place, there will be a large mountain range. Then I will be able to get the meat you have been craving for. It is already close at hand. You must not die.

ah."

This is not a good thing for me. I have been calculating the distance. It has been five days since I was rescued by this group of humans, and I will almost reach that area. From her tone, it seems that they don’t know much about the area. I and I

The mother stayed there for a month with only a few clues, and finally she had to fight her way out with her own body. I'm afraid whether they could get out was a question.

I can also try to use my body to escape from these humans, but this is too risky, and for some reason, there seems to be something in my heart that keeps rejecting this idea.

"I want to drink……"

If consciousness saved my life, then water was the thing that hung my consciousness.

"Want some water? Just wait a moment, I'll get it from here." Just by listening to her footsteps, you could tell how hurried she was walking.

I have asked for water several times before, but this time she took longer than the last few times.

I don’t know how long it took, but I finally heard the familiar footsteps. As the footsteps got closer and closer, I also smelled the faint smell of blood in the air.

The smell of blood on her body just disappeared a day ago. At that time, I was secretly relieved, but then another wound was added so quickly? Logically speaking, there is nothing here, who would hurt her? What about the so-called young lady?

She came over and carefully put the kettle to my mouth. Her voice was obviously much weaker and she said, "I didn't take much this time. You drink first. If it's not enough, I'll get it later."

I was still wondering if she was injured again and why, but she suddenly poured the water in. I swallowed a few big mouthfuls, and more went into my lungs along the trachea, causing me to cough for a while.

non-stop.

She hurriedly took away the kettle, wiped the water droplets from my face with her hands, and then helped me up and patted my back repeatedly. While patting, she also put the responsibility on me.

"Look at you, I fed it to your mouth, and you wasted so much water. I finally got it."

I have come into contact with many beasts and a few people, but except for my mother, I have never seen such a life that should be expected to shift its responsibilities to other beasts. Now that I have seen it, even the trace of sadness revealed at the end of the sentence

Just like my mother.

If I hadn't been unable to move, I would have definitely bitten her severely. Now, I have a more important thing to do.

"Tomorrow...leave me here..." I turned pale and struggled to say these words.

My body has not recovered in the past few days, but has become even weaker. I will definitely die if I enter a sandy area.

"No, didn't I tell you everything? It's hard for me to deal with the lady when you're gone." She refused without hesitation.

I got a little angry, and with all my strength, I shouted: "I'm too weak! Cough cough cough... I'm going to die!"

"You are really dead if you stay here. Don't worry, I will protect you."

She didn't even know what was there, so how could she protect me? I could feel that her own breath was unstable.

What am I expecting? I believe her because she has a little bit of my mother in her. Maybe this is all premeditated.

Humans are a cunning race by nature. She must have guessed my identity a few days ago and told all humans that the beast race and the human race are incompatible with each other, so every one of them wanted to eat me alive.

In the past few days, she has been away from me for longer and longer, and she has brought back less and less things. They want to slowly play with me to death. I am just a plaything in their hands. If I die, forget it. If I am lucky enough to not die, then

I'm afraid the ancient city is the beginning of the nightmare. I should have discovered it long ago.

"Why didn't you say anything? Are you tired so quickly? Do you want to drink some water? There is still some left."

"Drink." I responded in a low voice.

Why don't you drink? They want to kill me. In this case, even if the chance of survival is zero, at least they have to pay the price.

…

I didn't sleep all night, and I had to be energetic for the rest of the journey until I died.

This group of humans had been making various preparations early on. Listening to the conversation among them, it seemed that they were preparing to abandon their tents and part of their burdens and rush through the dangerous area as quickly as possible. Of course, this seemed like a joke to me.

The tent is something I only gradually learned about after entering the ancient city. According to me, it is a simple "cave" that can provide shelter from wind and rain, but is of no use once it is in danger.

After a while, she squeezed out of the group of people with eager footsteps. After walking over, she simply collected a few things, then took out the water bottle and took a big sip. She breathed a long sigh of relief and said: "

I just heard them say that the few people sent out to explore the road last night have not returned yet, and they can't find them. Could it be that something happened?"

"hehe…"

I sneered in my heart. They didn't know the horror inside. The wind and sand could sweep even the boulders into the air. Every human being would die without a doubt. But this was exactly what I wanted. The more people died, the better. It would be best if they all died.

I actually started to look forward to it, hoping to get in there sooner. After waiting for a long time, I finally heard someone shouting: "Get ready to go."

The smile that I couldn't hide flashed across my face. I knew that this action would definitely not escape the attention of her "acquaintance", and it didn't matter anyway.

After hearing the order to gather, she quickly carried me towards the crowd. After taking a few steps, she suddenly stopped again, put me on the ground, then handed something unknown to me to my mouth and said

: "Your body is indeed too weak. Let me give you something to eat."

Now she has become a human being full of stench in my eyes. Of course, I can't eat the food she gave me, but there are waves of fragrant aroma in front of me. I have never smelled this kind of smell, which greatly arouses me.

My appetite is much stronger than that of meat.

I tried my best to control it, saliva kept coming out of my mouth, and my blood seemed to be boiling. It was really hard to imagine that this dying body would have such a big reaction.

"What's this?"

"Good stuff, used to save my life at critical moments. I couldn't bear to eat it many times."

"The place we are going to is very likely to be dangerous in a while. Of course, I will definitely protect you with all my strength. Just in case, you have to be able to protect yourself. Eat it. You should feel much better after eating it.

.”

To eat or not?

If it is really useful, why didn't she take it out before? Human beings have endless methods. Is it possible that they know my thoughts in some way and use them to deal with me? But, after I eat this thing,

If there is a problem, they should be aware of it. If they want to deal with me clearly, they don't have to go to such trouble. I can't resist.

At the end of the road, follow the current.

Anyway, with my current physical condition, I probably won’t be able to hold on for half a quarter of an hour after I enter there. If she wants me to eat, I’ll eat it for her to see, and I’ll do my best.

I no longer resisted and swallowed the thing whole. There was obviously no chewing, but the aroma lingered for a long time.

This feeling is very strange, as if there is a coolness traveling from the inside out, as if the body is soaked in water.

After a brief period of coolness, my body began to become hot again, my heart was pounding, and it was accompanied by severe pain, as if it was trying to break free from my body.

"Hiss" and "click"

I clearly heard some cracking sound coming from my body. I seemed to have experienced this feeling before. It was the sound of bones moving without using the body for a long time. Wouldn't the body appear now? But I couldn't control it!

Just when I was about to forcefully control it, that feeling suddenly disappeared without a trace, leaving me completely at a loss.

"What...is going on? It seems..." I was a little confused and didn't know what to say at all.

She touched my forehead, then with a look of understanding, she carried me on her back and caught up with the army. She smiled and said: "It seems like I fell from the sky into the endless abyss instantly and kept falling? It's just an illusion. The effect of the medicine

It's just the beginning, you go to sleep, and when you wake up, you'll see how far you can recover. It's best to recover as before, so that I won't feel so heartbroken."

I didn't react, but it was exactly what she said, it was like walking in a dream and missing something.

"It seems...really better?"

I tried wiggling my fingers and was surprised to find that it actually worked!

He slowly made a fist again. Although he still couldn't make a fist, he could close it halfway, and it only took such a short time!

This was completely beyond my expectation, and I looked astonished, as if this kind of thing should not happen and was unheard of.

After a long time, my mood calmed down a little, but the strangeness in my heart and body did not stop.

After that surge of heat, the wounds and joints all over the body began to vibrate rhythmically like "dong, dong, dong." About a quarter of an hour later, a small piece of the scab on the edge of the forehead suddenly fell off, and just as it hit

After a while, another small scab fell on my face.

Then I was even more delighted. Not only on my face, but also on my whole body, there were wounds of various sizes that were recovering. But they were wounds that were not very deep in the first place. As long as there was enough time, they would fall off sooner or later, wounds that penetrated through.

It was shaking very badly, but unfortunately it didn't show any signs of falling off.

My mother said that some of the scabs on my body will fall off over time, but most of them are indelible.
To be continued...
