Chapter 1637 - Untitled (2/2)

“Young Lady, accept it since you’re here!” One of them persuaded, “We have never seen anyone escape successfully after being here for so long, but we’ve seen many dead ones.”

“Grandpa, have you guys been here for very long?” Sima You Yue asked.

“Yes, so long that I almost forgot who I am.” There was sorrow in the old man’s tears.

“Grandpa, can you tell me about this place?” Sima You Yue asked.

“Sure! Since we’re free for a chat, the two courtyards at the sides have been empty recently. Other than that Fatty, no one is alive. But he is a mysterious person and doesn’t like to talk. It’s been a long time since this little old man has chatted with anyone.”

After he spoke, he took out a table, chair, a teapot and started to pour himself a cup of tea.

Sima You Yue knew it was modified when she saw his table because the size of it fitted the space just right.

That Elder smiled and said when he saw Sima You Yue staring at his table, “Young girl, don’t mind me drinking alone, it’s too boring here and I can’t send the tea over to you.”

Sima You Yue stayed silent and followed him by taking out a chair out her front door and listened to that old man nagging about the dark life here.

She slowly learnt about the place here from that elder’s speech. At least it was where she pictured in the map and knew where they were in the Lost Place.

The island here didn’t have a name in the map and no one in the island knew what this place was as well, but Sima You Yue determined that this was a small island up in the north of Lost Place.

It was simple. It was reported that only the north side of the sea had hundreds of jellyfish. And the hundreds of jellyfish would usually gather around the small island.

It was impossible to escape because this place was surrounded by ruthless Sea Beasts. Some of them were even land, sea and air beasts.

Not knowing what Hao Clan did to the surrounding of this small island that would gather so many Sea Beasts, those who wanted to escape could only escape via air, but they set up a spatial confinement.

If anybody wanted to break the spatial confinement, it would attract those guys’ attention. Once they were found out, it would be impossible to escape.

For those that were lucky enough to escape from here, they would face thousands of Sea Beasts and would lose the confidence of escaping.

Someone once made use of the chance to escape the small island while others were kicking up a fuss, but before he could fly out of everyone’s sight, he was swallowed by the Sea Beasts that flew out from the sea.

No one dared to escape after that incident.

Sima You Yue heaved a sigh after hearing these things. It was no wonder no one could escape from here, it was really hard to break through this place.

How despairing would it be for Master if he was trapped here?

“Grandpa, so we can only stay in our courtyard?” Sima You Yue looked desperate.

“It’s not only that, we can go out of the courtyard once in a few days to go out for a walk in batches.”

People would become crazy if they were trapped in the house everyday, so Hao Clan arranged for them to unwind once in a while.

“Do you know anyone else here?” Sima You Yue asked.

“On this island, there’s no difference in knowing them or not.” Not knowing what the old man was thinking, he sighed with regrets.

“On this island, is there anyone who is reputable?”

“There is! I heard that these two people are always thinking of escaping and even fought with some of the people on this island. I think their names are Xu Jin and Ge Lang.”
