After a while, Xiao Hengyu asked again: "What about you guys? What are you doing here?"

Su Yutang said truthfully: "I'm here to find someone."

She thought that there was nothing to hide anyway. Now they were all in Xiao Hengyu's stolen car and were at a disadvantage. Maybe if she was honest, she could get some useful information from Xiao Hengyu.

After hearing this, Xiao Hengyu smiled, and there was something meaningful in his smile. He said leisurely: "Go find Nanyu, he's not here."

When Su Yutang heard this, her eyes widened. She didn't care why Xiao Hengyu knew they were looking for Nanyu, but asked anxiously, "How do you know he didn't come?"

Her heart suddenly hung in her throat. She had gone through so much hardship in the no-man's land these days just to find Nanyu, but now Xiao Hengyu said so confidently that Nanyu didn't come here. What was going on?

Xiao Hengyu said calmly, "If he comes, I will know. Anyway, I haven't heard any news about him in the no-man's land. If you come, not only will you not be able to find him, but you will also die."

Su Yutang frowned and became more and more uneasy.

Could it be that what Xiao Hengyu said was true? Did Nanyu really not come here?

Bo Jingzhou looked at Xiao Hengyu's feigned deepness, snorted coldly, and said, "Xiao Hengyu, if you know anything, just say it out loud, don't try to be mysterious here."

Xiao Hengyu, however, seemed not to have heard what Bo Jingzhou said. He continued to look out the window. After a while, he slowly said, "There are some things that you are better off not knowing. Knowing them will not do you any good."

The atmosphere in the car fell into a deadlock again. Everyone had their own thoughts, and the car continued to drive on the rugged road in the uninhabited area.

After a while, Xiao Hengyu's men drove the car around in this complicated no-man's land, as if they were familiar with the place, and soon found a relatively flat road.

The car drove steadily along the road, the desolate scenery outside the window kept receding, and soon a jungle appeared.

Xiao Hengyu leaned lazily on the car, his hands behind his head, eyes closed, and he looked so relaxed, as if he was not in a no-man's land full of dangers, but enjoying leisure time in the comfortable back garden of his own home.

Su Yutang looked at him like this, and became more and more curious. She couldn't help but ask, "You seem very familiar with this place?"

It is said that the uninhabited area has always been mysterious and dangerous, and few people can understand the road conditions here, but Xiao Hengyu seems to know it very well. There must be a reason for this.

Hearing this, Xiao Hengyu opened his eyes slightly, a hint of pride flashed in his narrow eyes, and he said slowly: "Of course I am familiar with it. Look at what this is?"

As he spoke, he took out a map from the bag beside him and waved it in front of Su Yutang.

The map looked a bit old, with various complex routes and marks on it, obviously having been used and studied many times.

Seeing this, Su Yutang couldn't help but widen his eyes and asked in surprise: "You actually have a map of the no-man's land?"

She knew very well how precious the map of this no-man's land was. With it, it was like having a guiding light in this maze-like place. No wonder Xiao Hengyu could find the way so easily.

Xiao Hengyu raised the corner of his mouth and said with a hint of boasting: "Don't admire me too much. I am indeed a little better than Bo Jingzhou."

His words were full of provocation. He just wanted to take the opportunity to suppress Bo Jingzhou and watch him get humiliated.

Bo Jingzhou snorted coldly: "Why don't you talk about those years when your father left you here to fend for yourself?"

As soon as these words came out, Xiao Hengyu's face suddenly became ugly.

When Bo Jingzhou mentioned the past that he did not want to recall, his originally smug expression instantly disappeared without a trace, replaced by a gloomy face.

Su Yutang glanced at Xiao Hengyu. It turned out that he had been to the no-man's land and got out alive.

However, seeing that Xiao Hengyu's face was not very good, Su Yutang did not ask any further questions.

Su Yutang stared at the map, her eyes falling on a certain spot. She pointed there and asked, "Is there a house here? Does that mean there are people here?"

Xiao Hengyu glanced at it calmly, nodded slightly, and replied: "Yes. That's where we are going now."

His tone was calm, making it hard to guess what was in that place and why it became their destination.

When Su Yutang heard this, she quickly asked, "Then when can you take us out?"

Xiao Hengyu glanced at her, his tone still calm, and said: "Soon, wait until I finish my work."

Su Yutang frowned and couldn't help asking again: "What are you here for?"

She really wanted to know what Xiao Hengyu was up to, why he appeared in the no-man's land, and what his purpose was. Moreover, they were now sitting in his car, and all this made her feel uneasy.

However, Xiao Hengyu's expression suddenly turned cold: "I told you not to ask. The more you know, the worse it will be for you."

Hearing this, Su Yutang could only suppress his curiosity and remained silent.

But she was still thinking about Nanyu. After hesitating for a moment, she asked again, "You really didn't lie to me. Nanyu didn't come here?"

Xiao Hengyu was silent for a moment, then slowly said, "It's hard to say now."

Su Yutang was stunned: "What do you mean?"

Xiao Hengyu looked at her nervous expression, raised his eyebrows slightly, and explained: "I spread the news that you came to the no-man's land. If Nanyu knew, he should be on his way."

Although his tone was flat, the amount of information in his words made Su Yutang's mind buzz.

She didn't expect that Xiao Hengyu would do such a thing. Wouldn't this involve Nanyu in danger as well?

Xiao Hengyu, however, looked indifferent. He shrugged and said, "I just want to see how important he is to you, and whether it's worth it for you to risk your life to come to this no-man's land to find him. But don't worry, if he really comes, I want to see how capable he is to protect himself in this no-man's land."

There was a hint of amusement in his eyes, as if all this was just a game he used to test others, and he didn't care about Nan Yu's life or death at all.

Su Yutang was so angry that she was shaking all over. Just as she was about to argue with Xiao Hengyu again, Bo Jingzhou reached out and held her back, saying softly, "Don't be impulsive. We don't know the specific situation yet. Let's talk about it after we get out. Don't fall for his provocation."

Bo Jingzhou knew Xiao Hengyu's character very well. This guy just wanted to deliberately provoke Su Yutang in order to disturb their minds.

But now their car has a problem and they have lost contact with their companions. Here, they can only rely on Xiao Hengyu to get out.

Maybe by following Xiao Hengyu, I can get more information.
