Cards are born to be king

When Jiang Yong just woke up, what greeted his eyes was a somewhat shabby room.An old animal skin blanket was draped over his body, which could barely cover his body, and his exposed hands and feet were freezing cold.

Sitting up and wrapping himself in a blanket, Jiang Yong turned his head and saw a big hole in the wall on his right.It was barely blocked with ice, rocks and the like, but the cold wind from outside still poured in from here. In addition, there was no fireplace or alchemy stove in this house, which made people feel cold to the bone.

When he pretended to be dizzy next to the Frost Pattern lair, he didn't expect to be really dizzy, did someone bring him here?What about the other villagers?

There is still some chaos in the brain, which may be the sequelae left by guiding Qika before.Jiang Yong vaguely remembered that he seemed to have had a long dream, but after waking up, only a vague impression remained.Shaking his head, not wanting to waste any more time here, Jiang Yongyi directly pushed away the animal skin blanket, stood up, and walked outside the house.

The bitter cold wind made him shiver from the cold, but seeing the sunshine is rare today, which is much better than the coldness in the house.The surroundings looked like a mess, only a few igloos that had not completely collapsed stood upright, and were barely able to live in after being repaired in crude ways.There were scattered ice bricks and ice cubes all over the ground.

But here it is obvious that someone has cleaned it a little bit.Looking outside, the situation was even more dire. The snow layer and ice balls were like frozen and surging waves, plowing fierce ripples on the ground one after another, with no place to stay.Occasionally, there are still broken branches and leaves, and the corpses of monsters.Jiang Yong tried his best to look into the distance, but everything he saw was like this.

Taking a deep breath, Jiang Yong clearly felt the powerful destructive power of the ancient dragon.But when he turned his head and looked towards the direction of the forest at sunset and dusk, a large piece of the originally dense and verdant deep forest was directly missing, and someone dug a hole.The bustling crowd gathered there, as if they couldn't wait to see the majestic appearance of the giant dragon, but there were golden armored soldiers silently guarding the outskirts of the forest, not letting anyone in.

"Fei Lian, you're awake."

The familiar voice attracted Jiang Yong's attention. He turned his head with a smile on his face, but after seeing the scene in front of him, his smile turned into shock.

"Aunt Winnie... what happened to your right hand?

"Come and drink a bowl of hot soup to warm your body. Oh, it's okay, it's just freezing."

Aunt Winnie handed Jiang Yong a bowl with missing sides, and waved her hand indifferently after hearing his question.However, she used her left hand no matter whether she was holding a bowl or waving her hand before. Her right arm was severed from the elbow and was simply bandaged.In the world of ice and snow, it has stopped bleeding for a long time, but it looks a little shocking.

When she noticed that Jiang Yong's gaze was still on her right arm, Aunt Winnie raised her thick eyebrows, and said coldly:

"Drink your soup! It's enough to survive, what else do you want to do so much. Come to work with me after drinking!"

Ying finished the hot soup with two sips, and Jiang Yong felt a little more comforted when he saw that Aunt Winnie was in good spirits.It was still dark when he was by the dragon's nest, and he didn't recognize who were still alive.Jiang Yong took this opportunity to ask his aunt.

After hearing his words, Aunt Winnie paused, with a bit of sadness on her face.

"Hey, the old guys are all dead, and the young ones are gone. Some of them dragged it back, but they didn't make it through. After careful calculation, there are only six people left in our town...but it's better than The next few towns are struggling, and many of them are left alone."

It was like swallowing a piece of ice, which chilled my heart.Jiang Yong was stunned for a moment, and his eyes seemed to have returned to the time when he woke up from the dragon's nest and saw corpses all over his feet.Without the power of the card, without Amos, he would be one of these corpses.In the end, I can only get this sentence.

Someone nearby called Aunt Winnie.She echoed, took back the cleaned soup bowl from Jiang Yong's hand, pointed him in the direction, and left.Clenching his fists slowly, Jiang Yong watched Aunt Winnie walk away and looked around the messy venue, but his eyes gradually faded away from anxiety and fear, and became firmer.

No matter whether this world is real or not, no matter what kind of existence it is here.He never thought about death either.If he wants to live, only with unrivaled power can he truly control his own destiny.

Suddenly thought of something, Jiang Yong was shocked, raised his hand and looked.The light gold chain pattern is still wrapped around his wrist, which looks inconspicuous.Only the pocket watch on his wrist flickered.A pocket watch, another pocket watch.Jiang Yong couldn't help sighing a little, why did he have such a predestined relationship with pocket watches?

"You...are the child who was rescued from the mountain and has not woken up."

He was about to walk towards the direction Aunt Winnie was pointing at, but at this moment, a voice that sounded like a smile was not a smile came from the front.Jiang Yong paused, noticing that a young man in a black and white mink cloak had stood in front of him at some point.

The young man looked very handsome, but there was a bit of evil in his eyebrows and eyes.He stared at Jiang Yong with drooping eyes, as if a cold and slippery poisonous snake had found its prey.This kind of gaze is very uncomfortable, and it directly reminds Jiang Yong of the one-horned tree snake he used to refine medicine.

Thinking of this, his mind turned around, and suddenly he remembered that he hadn't refined potions for a long time, and the dozen or so bottles that he refined before were basically used up in the swamp, and there were almost a few bottles left that still didn't know the effect. The potion and the bottle of powder.

"Hey, boy, don't be distracted."

The young man noticed Jiang Yongyou's gaze, and there was a flash of interest in his eyes.As soon as Jiang Yong came back to his senses, he saw the young man staring at him, licking his lips meaningfully, sticking out his tongue and stringing seven small silver rings neatly on it.Jiang Yong felt his tongue hurt a little, so he simply nodded in response.

"it's me."

"Oh, really……"

The young man smiled and suddenly hooked something from his waist with his fingers.

"Then look, is this your thing?"

Jiang Yong took a closer look and was suddenly speechless.What the young man brought up turned out to be an exquisitely crafted golden cage. The ring on the top of the cage was hung around his waist with a golden chain, and inside the cage was a white ball curled up.

Doggy!

Jiang Yong subconsciously touched his pocket, only to realize that Goudan was no longer in his pocket. He didn't know when he ran out and how it got into the hands of this young man.

"It looks like this really belongs to you."

The young man smiled happily.He shook the cage lightly, the golden bells decorated beside it jingled, and the ball inside was also awakened.It spread its wings and staggered to keep its balance. A pair of beautiful big blue eyes suddenly met Jiang Yong, and then burst into tears.

"Beep~beep~beep..."

The ingratiating chirping sound is weak and twists and turns, arousing the love and affection in people's hearts.Jiang Yong raised his head, frowned and looked at the young man, his tone was a bit tentative.

"This is the bird I raised, thank you for helping me retrieve it."

"Hey, kid, don't look bitter and hateful."

The young man waved his hand, smiling and looking easy to talk.Jiang Yong is only 12 years old now. He grew up in the extremely cold northern region and suffers from chronic malnutrition. He really looks like a child.

"Come on, let me ask you a question. You answer me, and I'll give you this little thing."

"Ok?"

For some reason, Jiang Yong gradually became vigilant.Out of the corner of his eye he glanced around.It's a bit empty here, and people's voices come from a distance, but they can't be heard clearly.The young man had a smile on his face, but his dark brown eyes stared at Jiang Yong unblinking, and his sharp eyes seemed to be able to see directly into the brain through the body.

There is a special rhythm between the words, and a slight hiss can be vaguely heard, like a poisonous snake spitting out a letter.The young man curled his lips slightly, and said word by word:

"You were on the mountain, what did you see?"

"On the mountain?"

Jiang Yong's eyes were confused for a moment, and he blinked, with a bit of panic in his eyes, as if recalling the brutal massacre of the ice dragon that night, like a nightmare.

"I saw a lot of people, from all the towns. And men in gold armor, and big birds made of ice. And then... dragons, I saw dragons!"

"good very good."

The young man noticed his fear, and his tone slowed down.Those hissing sounds like snakes have also become softer.

"Relax, good boy. Relax, you're doing well. Now tell me, have you seen anyone? There's a blue light on him, and a lot of white cards are summoned beside him."

This person is looking for himself!

Jiang Yong was terrified.At first, when the young man's tone became strange, his mind went blank for a second or two, and he felt the urge to tell him everything.But soon, the temperature of the pocket watch pattern on the wrist suddenly rose, which woke Jiang Yong up, and then he didn't reveal anything he shouldn't say.

Noticing that the young man was staring at him without blinking for a moment, Jiang Yong stabilized his mind, his expression remained unchanged, and he still looked confused.

"No... I fainted, and then, I didn't know anything after that."

"Good boy, think again, think carefully."

The young man's tone was as gentle as a feather touching the heartstrings, but the heat from his wrist kept Jiang Yong calm, pretending to be confused and thinking, the sense of crisis in Jiang Yong's heart reached the highest level, and cold sweat leaked from his back out.

"Tsk, it's all trash. If I hadn't had to deal with that little black hair back then, I wouldn't have missed such an interesting event. Not only did the ancient dragon not see it, even the genius who awakened wasn't there. How could I be like this? Bad luck."

The young man complained. He watched Jiang Yonglen staring blankly at the same spot, pursed his lips, circled his fingers around the cage a few times, and snapped his fingers suddenly.

"Just now you had a dream, and when you woke up, you forgot everything."

The young man said impatiently, and with a flick of his finger, he rolled the little owl out of the cage.Turn around and walk away.Noticing his actions, Jiang Yong was secretly relieved, but his face was full of sadness.I didn't expect people to come to me now, it seems that this place is no longer safe.But where can I go now.

Amos once said to let him go to Olanna, but Olanna is extremely far away, and he passed through various extremely dangerous wilderness death situations on the way. Can he pass there alive?

"Hey, interesting."

The greasy and cold voice next to his ear made people instantly alert. Jiang Yong rolled his eyes and found that the young man had gone and returned somehow, standing not far from him.Rubbing his chin with his index finger, he looked at himself with a smile.

"Hearing my snapping fingers, why didn't you faint? Is it my snake that made a mistake, or..."

"You're always awake. Funny, funny. What other secrets are you hiding, kid?"

Jiang Yong's pupils shrank suddenly, and there was only one word in his mind

The author has something to say: coded out a chapter this morning qwq there should be two more in the afternoon.

Three more happy!

I'm sorry that there were too many things in the past two days, and I want to show my heart to the little angels.
