Transmigrated into a tortoise, the Empress and the Goddess became my sisters.
Chapter 32 Tripping Rope
"And then?" the Empress continued to ask.
"Then we'll figure out a way to cross the sea," Lin Tian said calmly. "We have to get to Changbai Island."
"Cross the sea?" The Goddess of Asura frowned. "Do you think we're fish? How are we supposed to cross?"
“We are turtles,” Lin Tian explained patiently. “Turtles can swim.”
"But you have to be able to swim!"
The Asura Goddess rolled her eyes. "Look how far that sea is. We'll be lucky if we can swim halfway there."
"So we need to find food first to replenish our strength."
Lin Tian had already thought it through: "Besides, we don't necessarily have to swim directly there; there might be places to stay along the way."
The Goddess of Asura wanted to refute, but seeing Lin Tian's unquestionable attitude, she finally shut her mouth.
We walked north, through the woods, for a long time.
The Empress was getting anxious. "Brother, this forest seems to have no end."
How long are we going to get to this point?
"Hang in there a little longer, there should be a water source ahead," Lin Tian replied.
"How did you know?" the Asura Goddess couldn't help but ask.
"The trees here are very lush, and the ground is very moist."
“There must be a water source nearby,” Lin Tian explained.
Sure enough, not long after, the sound of flowing water could be heard.
"Brother, you're amazing!" the Empress couldn't help but praise.
Lin Tian didn't answer, but quickened his pace.
Soon, they arrived at a stream.
The stream was crystal clear, and many small fish swam around in it.
"Finally, there's something to eat!" The Asura Goddess rushed over excitedly and plunged into the stream.
"Don't rush," Lin Tian stopped her. "Have you forgotten the lesson from last night?"
The goddess of asura stopped and turned to look at him.
Lin Tian cautioned, "Eating fish is fine, but don't overdo it. You simply can't digest things with too much spiritual energy."
"I know, I know."
The Asura Goddess waved her claws impatiently, "It's just a few fish, I'm not going to eat them all."
Lin Tian didn't say anything more and started catching fish himself.
They stayed by the stream for about half an hour, and after catching enough fish, Lin Tian continued on his way with his two younger sisters.
"Brother, we've caught so many fish, why don't we eat them first before we leave?" the Empress asked.
"We don't have enough time. Let's eat when we find a safer place," Lin Tian replied.
The Asura Goddess couldn't help but mutter, "Even eating fish is so troublesome, I'm really impressed."
Lin Tian ignored her.
They continued north until noon, when they finally found a hidden cave.
"Let's rest here for a while."
Lin Tian put the fish down. "Eat something, then think about how to proceed."
The Empress nodded and began to divide the fish.
The Asura Goddess couldn't wait to snatch the biggest fish and said triumphantly, "This one is mine, don't try to take it from me."
Lin Tian glanced at her but didn't say anything.
They had just finished eating when they suddenly heard a familiar shout coming from afar.
It's a monkey.
Lin Tian immediately became alert: "They're chasing us!"
The Empress also tensed up: "What should we do?"
The Asura Goddess, with half a fish still dangling from her mouth, thought: "She's like a persistent ghost!"
Lin Tian quickly made a decision: "We can't stay here any longer; we must leave immediately."
"But they're so close this time, can we escape?" the Empress asked worriedly.
"Even if we can't escape, we have to run. It's better than sitting and waiting to die."
The three turtles fled again.
This time, the monkey's calls grew closer and closer, clearly indicating that it had locked onto its target.
"Brother, they're getting closer!" The Empress panicked.
Lin Tian gritted his teeth: "Hold on a little longer, there should be a cliff ahead."
Another cliff?
The Asura Goddess cried out, "One jump was enough last time, do you want to do it again?"
"If you don't jump, you can stay here and wait to die!" Lin Tian replied coldly.
The Asura Goddess was speechless and could only continue crawling forward.
Sure enough, not long after, they arrived at the edge of a cliff again.
Lin Tian glanced down and found that there was no soft mud, but a dense canopy of trees.
“Jump!” he said decisively.
"What reason do you have to believe me this time?" the Asura Goddess questioned.
"You don't have to jump, but don't expect me to save you." After saying that, Lin Tian jumped down.
The empress gritted her teeth and jumped down as well.
The goddess of asura hesitated for a moment, but ultimately closed her eyes and jumped.
The three turtles landed on the treetop; although they were badly injured, they managed to survive.
"Brother, you've won the gamble again this time," the Empress said, panting.
Lin Tian did not answer, but simply looked up at the top of the cliff.
The monkey's shadow had already appeared on the edge.
"Don't be happy too early."
The Empress looked down at the dense forest beneath the tree canopy and said in a low voice, "We can't keep running like this, or they'll catch up with us sooner or later."
"Then what good ideas do you have?" the Goddess of Asura interjected. "Don't talk about fighting them head-on. Even the three of us combined can't beat them."
"It's not a question of whether we can win or not."
Lin Tian calmly analyzed, "Our jump just now has given us away. They can find us very quickly by climbing down the tree canopy."
"So what? What exactly are you trying to say?" the Asura Goddess asked impatiently.
"Therefore, we have to create obstacles."
Lin Tian pointed to the surrounding tree trunks, "These branches and vines can be used as traps."
"A trap?" The Empress glanced at the troop of monkeys overhead, seemingly hesitant. "But there are so many of them, can we hold them off?"
"Even if we can't hold on, we have to try. Rather than waiting to die, we have to buy some time."
The Goddess of Asura was clearly unwilling: "Another trap. The last one almost killed me."
“Then you can choose not to do it,” Lin Tian said coldly, “but if you get caught, don’t expect us to save you.”
The goddess of asura glared at him, but finally gave in: "Fine, I'll listen to you, just don't trick me this time."
The three turtles quickly began to act.
Lin Tian and the Empress were responsible for using their claws to tear the vines and wrap them around the surrounding tree trunks to form tripwires.
The goddess Shura was responsible for moving the fallen branches to block the monkeys' possible path down.
"Tie the tripwire tighter."
Lin Tian cautioned, "They are very agile; they will jump over if you relax your guard even slightly."
"Understood," the Empress replied, quickening her pace.
"I said, you two hurry up."
The Asura Goddess complained, "I'm exhausted from carrying this pile of branches all by myself."
"Stop talking nonsense," Lin Tian replied. "As long as it can stop them, it's worth it for you to move more."
The Asura Goddess muttered a few words, but continued to move the branches.
Before long, a simple trap was set.
Lin Tian looked up at the treetop and saw that the monkeys had indeed begun to climb down the branches, with several of them already close to their heads.
"Ready! They're coming down!"
The Empress and the Goddess of Asura immediately became alert, and the three turtles quickly hid in the bushes nearby, quietly observing the monkey's movements.
The first monkey jumped into the area of the trap they had set.
It seemed to have noticed nothing amiss and was preparing to continue on its way.
Suddenly, its foot got stuck, and it lost its balance, falling heavily to the ground.
"Success!"
