Chapter 488: Chapter 488: The Transformation of the Monkey
“Yeah, what’s all the noise about at this time of night…”
In the tent on the other side, Zhang Ke said lazily:
“Even if he wants to escape, isn’t that normal? Whatever he does, he can’t get far with his lame leg. Besides, isn’t he bound with a rope…”
Yang Zi grunted heavily, pulling the rope to bind Lu Yuwen to a nearby tree tightly and snarled at Lu Yuwen: “Behave yourself!”
With that, he turned around and went back into the tent.
Inside the tent, Brother Xiao and Yang Zi whispered a few words, their tones not very pleasant. After a while, the voices faded, as if they had fallen asleep.
The night was once again silent…
…
Su Man quietly got up and came in front of Lu Yuwen.
She said to him in lipspeaking: “I, save you.”
Then she showed him her dagger, gesturing towards the rope on his body.
Lu Yuwen looked at her and silently shook his head.
Su Man slightly frowned, a little puzzled. What does it mean? Did he not want her to save him?
Did he not trust her, or did he misunderstand her intentions, thinking that she was going to hurt him as well?
No matter!
Get the person out first and deal with it later!
If he goes on being tormented by those thugs, I’m afraid he won’t survive.
Su Man gripped the dagger tightly, slashing down on the rope!
——The sensation was as though she had encountered a very tough cow tendon string! It wouldn’t cut?!
Su Man was startled and paused, subconsciously tried again, but still failed!
Why?
It looked like just an ordinary leather rope!
Lu Yuwen spoke barely audible two words: “Prop.”
Su Man was slightly surprised, reaching out to touch the rope, and the information of the prop instantly appeared in her mind——
[Mr. Dongguo’s Rope: Once knotted, no one other than the user can untie or damage the rope.
Note, the prop loses its effect after the user’s death.]
No wonder he wanted to set a fire before!
Because unless they die, he can never escape!
Su Man was stunned.
She didn’t expect to encounter such a situation. Unless the tree was cut down now, there was no way to rescue Lu Yuwen!
Could it be cut down?
… Strictly speaking, it’s not impossible, but it’s impossible to cut down a tree without waking those thugs.
What should she do now?
The man was within her reach.
But she couldn’t save him!
Lu Yuwen scratched the ground with his foot a few times and wrote a word: MAP.
Map? What does he mean? Did he want her to get the map?
Lu Yuwen nodded in the direction of the motorcycle.
Su Man seemed to understand but was not sure, looking at him hesitantly, then tiptoed to the motorcycle——
The back box was not locked, several papers were squeezed into the gap, which could be opened with a light lift.
The night was too dark to see the scribbles on the paper, she took them all in her hand, a thick stack.
Then she returned to Lu Yuwen again.
“Take the map, find a place to hide.” Lu Yuwen said in a low voice.
Su Man asked, “What about you?”
“I’ll find a way to get out.” Lu Yuwen’s voice was even lower, glancing nervously at the tent, worried that Su Man would stay longer and wake those people, he urged, “You hurry up and go!”
Su Man bit her lip, hesitated for a moment, then turned around and hurried off.
These maps are the key to getting out of the maze, she must hide them well!
…
After a long time, Su Man finally found a place she thought was safe. She hid the maps and then went back to find Lu Yuwen.
Lu Yuwen stared at her in disbelief: “Didn’t I tell you to hide?!”
Su Man was stunned: “Didn’t you tell me to hide the map?”
Lu Yuwen was choked.
There was a rustling noise from the tent.
Alarm bells rang in Lu Yuwen’s head. He was about to chase Su Man away when the figure in front of him suddenly leaped up and climbed up the tree in the blink of an eye, hiding in the dense branches and leaves.
Lu Yuwen: “…”
Is this woman a monkey?!
