The oasis before him gave Jiang Junyi a tremendous desire for life.
He ran with all his might, staggering, toward the oasis.
It's getting closer! It's getting closer!
Jiang Junyi arrived at the oasis and knelt down, carefully placing Wan Qingyun to one side.
He reached his hands into the clear water, trying to scoop up a handful.
But instead of the expected coolness, my hands were burning hot.
When Jiang Junyi looked up again, there was no oasis at all; it was just a mirage.
What he was holding in his hands was a handful of yellow sand...
Jiang Junyi was stunned for a moment, and the yellow sand in his hand slowly flowed away.
After a brief silence, he once again carried Wan Qingyun on his back.
There were no screams, no despair.
At this moment, it seemed that no emotion arose in his heart.
On the contrary, one idea was very clear.
The appearance of a mirage is a natural optical phenomenon caused by the refraction and total internal reflection of light.
So in a sense, there is an oasis here.
No matter how far away it is, it at least shows that there is hope for survival.
He took out his compass, glanced at it, and continued walking in the direction of the pointer.
As I walked, a deep sense of fatigue suddenly overwhelmed me.
His body trembled, and his bones groaned.
Jiang Junyi suddenly stopped and looked up at the azure sky.
He knew that he had reached his limit.
[System, are you there?]
Jiang Junyi asked himself this question.
[Here I am.]
[Since you didn't receive any notification, it means you can't redeem water resources in the store, right?]
[Yes.]
Jiang Junyi remained silent for a moment. He had already prepared for this when the water source ran out but the system did not appear.
Right now, he only hopes that the system can save Wan Qingyun's life.
Is there any way to save her life?
Yes, check the online store.
Jiang Junyi's eyes lit up slightly as he opened the online store.
[ The Magical Tube ]: It can convert its own blood into clear water (which the host cannot drink).
Price: Pure Love Points
Jiang Junyi smiled in relief. "Damn system, it really did have a trick up its sleeve."
exchange.
A transparent tube appeared in Jiang Junyi's hand.
Jiang Junyi looked around and walked towards a dead tree.
He gently put Wan Qingyun down against the wood, then knelt down in front of Wan Qingyun.
Jiang Junyi's hands trembled as he stroked Wan Qingyun's deathly pale face and then tidied her disheveled hair.
He murmured, " Qingyun... you must live..."
After saying that, Jiang Junyi inserted one end of the tube into the wrist vein and the other end into Wan Qingyun's mouth.
The blood flowed out slowly, and when it reached the center, the bright red suddenly turned into clear water and flowed to the other end.
Jiang Junyi looked relieved upon seeing this; now, Qingyun should be able to hold on for a long time.
As his blood drained away, Jiang Junyi's vision grew increasingly dark, and Wan Qingyun in front of him became increasingly blurry.
"Clatter".
A small, incredibly thin piece of material, which looked like a sheet of iron, fell from Jiang Junyi's arms.
Jiang Junyi was stunned for a moment, then suddenly laughed.
His lips moved slightly. " Uncle Wu... you must hurry... hurry... find Qingyun..."
As soon as the words fell, Jiang Junyi's head drooped, his vision went completely black, and he lost all consciousness.
Amidst the swirling yellow sand, a resolute figure knelt before the frail young girl for a long time.
[well...]
" Young Master—!"
Uncle Wu was taking a short rest in the sheltered corner because of the swirling yellow sand, was suddenly awakened!
When I woke up, I felt a sense of panic.
In his sleep, he seemed to hear his Young Master pleading for help.
"Had a nightmare?" Mo Jie leaned against the side, raising an eyebrow. "With these ample supplies, there shouldn't be any major problems."
Uncle Wu frowned deeply. "I made a mistake."
"Ah?"
Uncle Wu looked seriously towards the area outside the protective corner:
"I had a preconceived notion that the Young Master master and Young Madam, like us, had ample supplies."
"But I didn't consider what would happen if their supplies ran into problems?"
"It may have been lost, or it may have been abandoned out of necessity due to danger."
Uncle Wu stood up, his heart filled with immense anxiety.
"This..." Mo Jie frowned as well, realizing that Uncle Wu was right.
In this Kuoik, she had no way to communicate with Wan Qingyun, and anything was possible.
"Go! Quickly!"
Uncle Wu quickly packed his things and braved the wind and sand to walk out.
He always held a compass in his hand, which was specifically pointed at Jiang Junyi.
Before setting off, Jiang Junyi placed special thin magnets inside his sun-protective clothing.
Before this, the compass was sometimes accurate and sometimes not, which indicated that the distance was too great, but now it has gradually become much more stable.
The two figures gradually disappeared into the sandstorm.
After walking for about two hours, Uncle Wu suddenly saw a sheltered corner.
Uncle Wu's pupils contracted slightly. Since this sheltered corner appeared on this road, it was very likely that Jiang Junyi and Wan Qingyun had stayed there!
He quickened his pace toward the sanctuary.
Upon entering, Uncle Wu immediately focused his attention on the scattered columnar stones, empty bottles, and the small bag with obvious signs of rummaging on the ground.
In an instant, Uncle Wu's pupils contracted sharply.
He hurried over to the nearest point to take a look.
"Empty? A rock?! Oh no!"
Uncle Wu looked around the sheltered corner and found the mark left by Jiang Junyi!
Just then, Mo Jie arrived at the cave entrance and before he could even speak, he saw Uncle Wu rushing out in a hurry.
Upon closer inspection, Uncle Wu's eyes were already somewhat red.
"What happened?!" Mo Jie frowned.
"Hurry! The Young Master Young Madam's condition is very serious!"
Uncle Wu's tone was short and intense.
"They lack water and food, and we don't even know when this place was left behind!"
Upon hearing this, Mo Jie's pupils dilated sharply, and without saying a word, he followed.
Ignoring their exhaustion, the two ran wildly through the scorching heat!
They are racing against death; they must, they absolutely must, be fast!
The two maintained a high speed as they traveled, and by now the compass readings had become relatively stable.
This shows that Jiang Junyi and Wan Qingyun are not that far away from them!
"Hurry! Hurry!"
Uncle Wu urged.
It's not just urging Mo Jie, but also urging themselves.
Suddenly, Uncle Wu noticed a flock of vultures circling in the distant sky!
In an instant, he was gripped by a nameless panic.
Where do vultures appear?
The answer is very clear.
Uncle Wu's eyes were bloodshot with rage. He desperately channeled his inner True Qi and ran forward frantically.
Those vultures looked like they were about to swoop down, as if their prey was about to die!
Gradually, the compass needle stopped even the slightest tremor.
"Gah—ah—!"
A long, hoarse cry suddenly rang out, and a vulture plummeted straight down!
"Court death!"
Mo Jie's eyes hardened, and his True Qi instantly transformed into a jet-black spear, which he hurled out fiercely!
The vulture's body suddenly exploded.
At this moment, Uncle Wu saw a lifeless figure.
In that instant, his eyes widened in fury.
" Young Master—!"
