Heir to the Kingdom of 1.4 billion people

Chapter 1 First Arrival
afternoon.

In a deep and dense forest.

The soft sunlight shines through the gaps between the layers of leaves, sometimes gathering into beams of golden light, and sometimes turning into mottled spots of light, gently falling on the moss-covered soil.

It is truly a beautiful sight. If it were posted on one of the popular red books apps recently, it would surely attract a large number of followers.

It’s a pity that those who witnessed this scene only felt it was dazzling.

So tired, so thirsty, so hungry
Xia Mingyu muttered silently to himself, looking ahead where he still couldn't see any road but only a dense sea of ​​trees. He couldn't help but feel a sense of despair.

"Damn, where the hell is this place? Is this Southeast Asia or the Amazon?"

Xia Mingyu punched the big tree next to him hard. The burning pain on the back of his hand made him a little more conscious.

He was just an ordinary college student on Blue Planet. Just because it was winter vacation, he decided to take a trip to Thailand with his friends before the New Year. As a result, he was hit by a club as soon as he got off the plane. When he woke up, he found himself in this seemingly endless dense forest.

He called for help and shouted, but in the end he found that no one would respond, so he might as well keep his mouth shut and conserve his energy.

"There's still no signal on my phone, and not only that, the battery is about to run out."

Xia Mingyu took out the mobile phone from his pocket, looked at the call that still couldn't be connected and the blood-red battery indicator, and could only sigh heavily.

He looked at the sky above his head, which was heavily obscured by the treetops. Although it was very slow, he could still notice that the sunlight was gradually weakening.

Although he had never learned any knowledge about wilderness survival, the few survival clips he occasionally watched on video software made him understand that the forest at night is more than ten times more dangerous than during the day!
Especially in this dense forest with such a perfect ecology, it is impossible that there are no carnivores.

"Go forward and search for a while. If you still can't find the road, find a safe place like a tree hole to spend the night."

Xia Mingyu made a decision. He held his breath and concentrated, pushing aside the messy grass as he moved forward, while trying his best to listen to the sounds around him.

He also used fallen branches and stones in the soil as markers to mark the way so as not to get lost.

After about half an hour, he stopped.

Hua Hua Hua.

A voice came into his ears from a distance.

Although it was very faint, he still recognized it; it was the sound of running water.

"found it!"

After listening carefully and confirming the direction from which the sound of water came, Xia Mingyu immediately quickened his pace and rushed towards that direction.

Soon, after he pushed aside a dense bush, the scene before him suddenly became clear.

On the flat river bank covered with weeds, a small stream about four or five meters wide runs through. The water is so clear that you can see the delicate texture of the sand and pebbles at the bottom, as well as the small fish that occasionally swim in it, shining with silver light.

Xia Mingyu slowly approached the river, squatted down and reached out to gently touch the slightly cool stream water. An indescribable joy spread from his fingertips to his whole body, making his expression full of excitement.

Because he knew very well that where there is water, there is life.

As long as he kept walking along the stream, he would surely find people and get out of the dense forest.

Poof.

Xia Mingyu scooped up some stream water and gently washed his face. The cool water made him more conscious.

However, although he was a little thirsty, he had no intention of drinking the stream water, because although the stream water in front of him looked very clear, there were still a lot of impurities such as bacteria and fish eggs in it.

Unless the thirst is severe enough to affect his movements, he is not prepared to drink raw water directly.

"Let's walk along the stream for a while. If we still don't see any people or a way out, we'll try to make a fire and solve the problem of drinking water first." Xia Mingyu thought for a moment, and when he was about to get up, he suddenly froze.

I saw a line of strange words floating quietly above his reflection in the stream.

It was not any kind of writing he knew, but their common sense of regularity told Xia Mingyu that it was indeed a kind of writing.

At first he thought he was hallucinating, but after rubbing his eyes several times and the words still did not disappear, he had to accept this fact.

"What does this text mean? And why did it appear above my head?"

Xia Mingyu tried to move his body, but the words in the stream also moved with his reflection, which meant that the words were indeed related to him.

Obviously, he couldn't see the words above his head when he looked up, but he could see them in his reflection.

Not only that, when he concentrated on the words above his head, another similar text appeared below that line of text!

Seeing this, a shudder of fear ran through his mind.

Although many people on Blue Planet hope to encounter supernatural events, when such events actually happen to them, the first reaction of most people is undoubtedly panic.

"Calm down, calm down. The most urgent thing is to find people along the stream and make a fire to get drinking water."

Xia Mingyu took a few deep breaths and gradually calmed down.

This was a little trick that a senior taught him when he participated in a university speech competition. Whenever he was too emotional, he just needed to take as many deep breaths as possible, and his emotions would be quickly brought under control.

After calming down, just as Xia Mingyu was about to get up and move on, he suddenly felt an inexplicable sense of being watched from behind.

Considering that anything could happen in this land that looked like a primeval forest, he immediately stood up and turned around, staring at the dense bushes behind him.

As if sensing that its prey had discovered it, a huge wild wolf slowly emerged from the bushes with a slight rustling sound.

hiss!
Xia Mingyu's pupils constricted when he saw this scene.

It's not like he had never seen wolves in the zoo before, but this wild wolf was way too big!

Its shoulder height is more than half a meter, and its muscles are faintly visible under the deep gray-brown fur, showing the unique power and beauty of the beast.

The wild wolf stared at him with its dark green eyes, revealing its mouth full of fangs, and walked towards Xia Mingyu step by step, which was intimidating.

"At this size, it's almost catching up with the North American wolf." Xia Mingyu's mouth twitched.

Although he was terrified, he did not choose to run away. Instead, he opened his arms and stared at the wolf with a ferocious expression.

He had watched a few episodes of Animal World. It was impossible for a two-legged creature to outrun a four-legged creature, not to mention that carnivores had a hunting instinct for creatures that exposed their backs.

In conclusion, running away is a dead end, but opening your arms and looking at each other may give you a glimmer of hope.

Sure enough, after Xia Mingyu took such action, the wild wolf stopped and just stared at him, as if it was weighing the value and strength of his prey to see if it was worth hunting.

"You will definitely get hurt if you hunt me, get out of here!" Xia Mingyu shouted in his heart. He had never been so nervous as he was now.

However, when his eyes were almost dry from staring, the wild wolf suddenly let out a shrill howl!

Ouch——!
Xia Mingyu's face changed drastically. He knew very well that the purpose of this wolf howl was not to intimidate, but to call companions!

Just as he expected, just a few seconds later, accompanied by the sound of bushes being pulled, two more wild wolves of the same size emerged from the bushes.
