Chapter 347: 348

Mechanism

At that moment, Lin Zhizhao’s breathing stopped, his hands and feet ice-cold. He felt he should turn back and run, but it was as if his feet were rooted into the bridge, not moving at all!

A strange “kekeke” voice was heard. Lin Zhizhao raised his eyes to look, and saw that after the sitting woman completely turned around, there was only a mummy-like face!

This wasn’t the most terrifying. The most terrifying thing was that she unexpectedly opened her mouth slowly, and at the same time, that “kekeke” voice grew louder!

Lin Zhizhao cried out in fear. His feet went soft, and they fell through the cracks between the bridge’s planks!

Luckily, at the last moment, his hands caught the iron chains—but his hands were sweating profusely!

By his ears were the uncanny laughter, and under his feet was an endless abyss. But he wasn’t most afraid of these, what he was most scared of was, he noticed that the wooden pile attached to one end of the suspension bridge’s mountain was gradually loosening. He’s dead, this time for sure!

With a loud “bang”, the wooden pile completely pulled out, and he gripped onto the suspension bridge’s iron chains, his body immediately falling down.

Because the suspension bridge only snapped at one side, for a person like him who lacked the strength to truss a chicken*, once his body bumped against the mountain wall, his hands would definitely lose their grip, and then he would directly plummet down. So in the split second that he fell, he had already accepted his fate and his hands weren’t clutching that firmly anymore.

*手无缚鸡之力 – idiom, meaning very weak physically

When his hands were sliding off the iron chains, there was still the horrifying person’s voice in his ears. And at this moment, he saw a person jumping down with him!

Ye Mu dove, one hand reaching the suspension bridge’s iron chains, the other hand firmly grabbing Lin Zhizhao’s hand! The next second, the body of the suspension bridge ruthlessly slammed against one side of the mountain wall. Seeing it in advance, Ye Mu used her feet to brace against it, so Lin Zhizhao’s lower body bumped against the mountain wall while his upper body didn’t.

“You loosened your hands so early, you really wished to die?”

Ye Mu’s voice came out. Even if there was the suspension bridge’s “creak*” sound and the eccentric laughter above, her voice was as calm as before. That calmness really made Lin Zhizhao want to cry!

*onomatopoeia for creaking noise – ge zhi

She actually saved him again! No matter what her purpose was, what her reason was, Lin Zhizhao only felt he wouldn’t forget this person all his life!

“Hey, are you a fool?” Ye Mu’s voice snapped Lin Zhizhao back. “I’ll pull you up now, you climb up using the iron chains, understand?”

Lin Zhizhao nodded, but he hurriedly said in a twist, “Can’t—can’t go up! There’s a ghost up there!”

But Ye Mu laughed. “This cowardly, how did you have the courage to run away before?”

Saying this, she firmly pulled. Lin Zhizhao’s hands grabbed the iron chains.

Ye Mu said with a smile, “Hold on tight. If you fall again, I won’t be able to catch you. I’ll go up first!”

Saying this, she climbed up first.

Before, Lin Zhizhao’s legs were weak because of the female ghost above. But now there was Ye Mu, and he found that he wasn’t scared of anything anymore. So after his hands regained their strength, he gritted his teeth and followed climbing up.

Ye Mu went up first, but after she went up, Lin Zhizhao unexpectedly neither heard her scream nor heard other movements. He noticed that that horrifying person’s “kekeke” laughter was gone.

Feeling strange, he called, “Ye-xiaojie?”

Ye Mu didn’t answer.

He became scared and called again, “Ye-xiaojie?”

Ye Mu still didn’t answer. He felt uncertain, but at this moment, he also couldn’t not continue climbing up. Hence, he continued with his heart in his mouth. In the split second he raised his head, a mummy head suddenly appeared before him!

“I died so miserably.”

“Ah!!” Lin Zhizhao cried out in fear. His hands loosened their grip at once and he was about to fall, but Ye Mu unexpectedly grabbed his collar, and then directly lifted him up!

Ye Mu placed the person’s head on one side, roaring with laughter. “You’re this terrified, how did you have the guts to leave me and run away alone? Hmm?”

Ye Mu would never admit she was taking revenge on him and deliberately frightened him. But if she didn’t scare him for a bit because of his previous behavior, she would feel sorry for herself, so Ye Mu wasn’t the least bit guilty.

After going up the cliff, Lin Zhizhao’s feet were still weak. He just suddenly loosened his grip. If not for Ye Mu, he would definitely have died. But after realizing that she scared him, he furiously said, “Don’t you know people can scare people to death!”

Ye Mu squatted beside him and with a smile said, “Then have you been scared to death? You and me are still alive and well!”

Lin Zhizhao glared at her hard, but his line of view stopped at the mummy at one side and his expression grew fearful again.

“This is not an ordinary mummy. I just saw her move, how did you dare—” How did you dare seize her head?

Ye Mu pointed to the chair at the side. She said, “I didn’t seize it, it was when this woman was alive that her head was chopped! When I came up before, she smiled at me. I wanted to see what exactly she was, so I reached out. Who would have thought her head was loose. Look, there’s a wooden mechanism inside!”

Lin Zhizhao looked up, and found that the chair that was sat on by this woman was clearly not an ordinary chair. It was clear it was specially prepared by the people who renovated this place to frighten people. Lin Zhizhao felt irritated. He was very unwilling to think about how he was so scared before to the point of being weak in his feet, but he still didn’t dare to let himself go near the mummy.

Ye Mu said with a smile, “The way here must have already been destroyed by me, I know you must have the whole map in your head. This time, you won’t leave me alone, will you?”

She looked at the corpse with a smile that wasn’t a smile. “This time it was only to scare people, but who knows what’s inside? Without me, will you be able to go out?”

Ye Mu deliberately spoke gloomily. Lin Zhizhao felt diffident, but he also knew Ye Mu wouldn’t kill him. So he stood up, puffing his steamed stuffed bun face and fiercely said, “Then why don’t you follow me?”

Ye Mu also stood up, ready to go with him.

Lin Zhizhao looked back at the overhanging cliff in front. “You left like this. Are you not worried the people above won’t be able to find you?”

Ye Mu said, “No need to worry.” She smiled. “I’ve completely destroyed the mechanism in the tunnel in front. The tunnel won’t move anymore. Moreover, I left a message not far from where I came in and sealed the path. They can’t come in.”

Lin Zhizhao frowned, and finally groaned. “You sound so certain that someone will come save you.”

Ye Mu smiled but didn’t say a word.

On the other side, Mo Linyuan looked at the blocked path, frowning.

“Your Majesty, there’s a word here!”

Mo Linyuan hurriedly looked, but saw Ye Mu saying to wait at the foot of the mountain. Once she came out, she would set off the fireworks, and she also said she would be fine.

But if there was no problem, why did Xiao Mu-er collapse the tunnel? This clearly said, inside was very dangerous, and she didn’t want him to risk his life.
