Immersive Fast Wear: The Anti-Strike Manual of the Heartthrob
Chapter 488: Dodder, the sickly female player vs. the horror game boss (21)
When Ji Shuyang returned to the room, the words Du Nan said before he left were still echoing in her mind.
What does "I'll just watch, how long can you hide behind Mi Lin" mean?
Du Nan's tone was so confident, as if he knew some incredible inside information.
Could it be...that something went wrong with Mi Lin?
Ji Shuyang's heart suddenly skipped a beat. She reached out and pressed down her throbbing right eyelid, taking several deep breaths.
With his free hand, he tightly grasped the bamboo whistle, trying to sort out his confused thoughts.
But for a long time, my mind was still confused and my heart was empty and unreal.
It was almost dark when Mi Lin came back from outside.
Ji Shuyang stepped forward and asked cautiously:
"Ah Lin, did you encounter any problems this time when you went out?"
Mi Lin hugged her and walked into the room, shaking his head.
"No. Everything is going well. The route has been explored. As long as you are ready, we can set off at any time."
"really?"
Seeing Mi Lin nod in affirmation, Ji Shuyang looked happy and felt much more relaxed.
"That's good."
"However," as if reminded by her, Mi Lin suddenly remembered something.
"When I came back today, I ran into Du Nan. He stopped me very close to the village entrance and said a lot of nonsense to me, including threats and intimidation, and some harsh words."
"I didn't notice it at the time, but now that you mentioned it, I remember it. What happened?"
Mi Lin didn't care about anyone or anything before, but now that Ji Shuyang is someone he cares about, there is almost no big change.
At least, he still didn't take Du Nan's existence seriously.
Being stopped by Du Nan and forced to listen to a bunch of meaningless words only delayed Mi Lin's return.
When Ji Shuyang heard him say that, she felt her right eyelid twitching faster.
Du Nan said those words to himself, and later he went to the village entrance to stop Mi Lin. There must be some connection between them.
Who knows, it might even disrupt their plans to leave.
Ji Shuyang suppressed her panic, held Mi Lin's hand, and put forward her own ideas:
"Ah Lin, you said the route has been explored. Otherwise, we should leave now. The sooner we leave, the less prepared they will be. We can catch them off guard."
The villagers of Wuli Village have not yet directly confronted them, and the surveillance is only carried out in secret, so they are not too defensive against them.
It would be better if you leave earlier.
Mi Lin had no objection to when to leave.
He just felt strange as to why they suddenly asked to speed up the journey.
Ji Shuyang leaned gently into his arms and whispered:
"I always feel that if I delay, something bad will happen. This village is so scary. I don't want to stay here any longer."
"Ah Lin, can we go home together?"
These words went straight into Mi Lin's heart, leaving him with no more doubts.
"it is good."
When Ji Shuyang said leaving now, she meant this very moment.
Neither of them had anything to pack. They came with nothing but one set of clothes, and they left with the same set of clothes.
The only difference was probably that the clothes Ji Shuyang was wearing were a set of long-sleeved trousers "borrowed" from Widow Cui.
The road was unclear at night, so she had to go into the forest to leave. She didn't want to recall the suffering she had endured before in such a place with lush vegetation.
The conversation took some time, plus the time to change clothes, so when they went out, it was already dark.
Widow Cui was used to going to bed early, so she returned to her room very early, closed the door and disappeared.
Therefore, the two of them easily avoided the first line of surveillance.
Most of the other villagers in the village, like Widow Cui, turned off the lights and went to bed early.
In the pitch-black night, apart from not being able to see the road ahead clearly, Ji Shuyang actually felt more secure.
Under the guidance of Mi Lin, the two quickly walked through the sparsely populated paths in the village and came to the edge of Wuli Village and the forest.
Walk forward a few steps and you will see a pre-paved path covered by lush grass.
"Here, Shuyang, I'll take you there."
Mi Lin stretched out his hand backwards.
There is a mountain road behind us. Even though we have dealt with the weeds on the road in advance in order to avoid attracting attention, the road is still bumpy.
"Ah."
Ji Shuyang put her hand on it and it was immediately held. The warm palm gave her peace of mind.
"Let's go."
There was no fog in the forest today. Originally, she thought this was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity given by God to escape.
Unexpectedly, not long after leaving the village, I heard a lot of footsteps chasing me from behind.
Faintly, I could hear a few familiar voices.
"I told you, they had been preparing to run away for a long time. Fortunately, I told you in advance to keep an eye on Widow Cui's house, so we can still catch up with them now." It was Du Nan's voice.
"Hurry, follow them, don't let them run away. There are not many offerings to begin with, and if there are fewer, there will be no supply later." It was the voice of the village chief.
"I see them, there!"
Ji Shuyang didn’t know who said the last sentence.
She only knew that after that sentence, the chaotic footsteps became orderly and chased in the direction of her and Mi Lin.
"Alin, what should we do?"
It seemed that all Ji Shuyang could hear were the voices of the villagers who had caught up with her, and she almost lost her composure.
"Hold me, don't be afraid."
Mi Lin's voice was steady, but the mountain road was difficult to walk on, and Ji Shuyang was not in good physical condition, so she was no match for the strong villagers.
Even though he was somewhat familiar with the terrain and had taken Ji Shuyang to many places, the footsteps of the villagers were still following him like a shadow and he couldn't get rid of them.
There was no light in the dark forest. Even though someone was holding her, Ji Shuyang still tripped over something because her vision was obstructed.
"what!"
She twisted her ankle and fell to the ground.
Mi Lin immediately stopped and helped her up.
Due to this delay, the people led by the village chief and Du Nan caught up.
"After entering Wuli Village, no one wanted to leave before the time came."
The village chief waved his hand, and the villagers who followed surrounded them.
Ji Shuyang sprained her ankle again. Today’s escape plan probably wouldn’t succeed.
She grabbed the corner of Mi Lin's clothes and whispered:
"Ah Lin, forget it, let's go back and wait for the next opportunity."
Even if they are guarded after returning, as long as they relax for a moment, they still have a chance to escape.
Mi Lin was about to agree because he was listening to her, but Du Nan, who was among the villagers, stood up.
"Village Chief, we have reached a cooperation. After they return to the village, they must be watched separately."
Watch separately, separately from Ji Shuyang?
It was proposed by someone who coveted Shu Yang.
Mi Lin would never agree to this. He clenched his fists and said to Ji Shuyang in a low voice:
"Shuyang, stay here, we can leave."
After saying this, he rushed into the circle of villagers.
