Chapter 899: I Am Fatty from Back Then (3)
“Why is this place like this now? I remember there was someone else here in the past,” Long Feiting said.
“In the past? You’ve been here before? Aren’t you from the Imperial Capital?” Li Meng asked.
Long Feiting started to say something.
However, Li Meng pointed ahead excitedly. “There’s a pheasant! Xiao Huan, it’s a pheasant! Let’s catch it and roast it for lunch! This kind of pheasant tastes the best!”
Mu Huan looked over. “Alright! Let’s go!”
Long Feiting: “…”
When other girls saw a pheasant, they would say, “Wow, it’s so cute! Oh my god! Look, there’s such a thing here.”
But the two of them were so excited only because they wanted to eat it.
Seeing that the two of them had already run toward the pheasant, Long Feiting hurriedly followed. Then, the three of them chased after the pheasant.
When they caught the pheasant, they realized that they were lost.
They’d spun a few rounds, after all, before returning to their original spot.
“F*ck! How is this possible?!” Mu Huan said in disbelief.
Li Meng added, “That’s right! We’ve been going here since we were young. How can we get lost here?!”
“Don’t tell me we’ve met the legendary monster who makes people get lost?” Long Feiting asked.
Mu Huan: “…”
Li Meng: “…”
Then, they looked at him at the same time, their faces full of disbelief.
Long Feiting: “…”
He wasn’t doing this to liven up the atmosphere.
Li Meng took out her phone and wanted to call Wu Xingye to get him to locate them. Then, she pointed it up and realized, “F*ck! There’s no signal on the phone!”
Long Feiting took out his phone and saw that there was no signal. There wasn’t even a signal on his watch, so he couldn’t send a distress call.
“Why isn’t there any signal at all? It didn’t feel like we went that deep into the mountains! This shouldn’t be happening!” Li Meng said.
“It’s indeed abnormal.” Mu Huan frowned. Although it was easy for there to be no signal in the mountains, the West Mountain had been developing well in recent years due to tourism. Hence, a communications company had built two signal towers here. The signal here was very good. Even if they had walked a little deeper into the mountains, they shouldn’t have no signal at all.
And these trees looked a little strange.
She thought of something and walked under a tree to dig.
“Xiao Huan, what’s wrong?” Li Meng asked immediately.
“It feels like these trees have been transplanted recently, not grown here,” Mu Huan said.
When Long Feiting heard this, he frowned and looked over. It really looked like a new transplant.
“So what if it’s a new transplant?” Li Meng asked.
Mu Huan thought for a moment and said, “These trees are all of the same species and are basically similar in appearance. They’re also newly transplanted, and this road is about the same. Hence, we didn’t notice it at first. After walking a few rounds, we thought that it was a place we had walked past already, so we thought we returned to where we were. To use an old term, this might be a kind of array. In modern terms, it’s easier to understand if you think of this as a huge maze that was deliberately built by someone. We don’t know when we entered it, so it’ll not be easy to find an exit.”
Li Meng: “…”
“Could it be that this is a live-action version of a game that was built by a tourist agency?” Long Feiting asked.
The construction of such a realistic scene would block out signals and prevent people from using maps to navigate. One had to rely on their own strength to walk out of this huge maze. Of course, those people usually had specialized communication devices and locators, but they had entered by mistake.
“That would be the better possibility,” Mu Huan said.
