Chapter 50.1 (2/2)
After they had both climbed up, they didn’t dare stop at the edge of the cliff. They ran forward as fast as they could for more than ten meters before they fell to the ground exhausted and gasping for air.
Just then, there came a loud crash!
Xiao Tangqiu looked back and saw that the edge of the cliff they had just stood on had completely collapsed and the tree had fallen into the abyss.
They couldn’t help but tremble with fear. If they had hesitated just now, even if it was only for two or three seconds, they would’ve fallen to their deaths with the tree! It was so close!
It really was too close!
They looked at each other in a trance and at the same time, fell back to the ground and laughed out loud for having survived.
“Hahahaha, just now I almost shouted at you ‘Quick let go! Otherwise we would both die!’……” Xiao Tangqiu laughed while gasping for air and said, “Then you would probably say ‘I won’t let go! Let’s die together!’ …It’s totally like a romance tragedy out of a tv drama!”
Tang Mianmian also laughed, “Hahahahaha……”
He smiled and suddenly stopped. “Actually, I almost let go of your hand just now.”
Xiao Tangqiu also paused. Then he said, “Even if you let go, I wouldn’t blame you. You’ve done your best.”
Tang Mianmian lay on the ground with his eyes wide open. “But I would blame myself! It was so weird just now. I kept thinking, ‘Let go! Let go! Or else I’ll die!’ ……Several times, I almost let go…”
“I tried very hard to control myself and finally didn’t let go… I must’ve been possessed! It was like someone was talking in my ear! He was repeating the same sentence, telling me to quickly let go. I really must’ve been possessed!”
Xiao Tangqiu instantly remembered that when they were on the roller coaster, it seemed that there was also a person who kept repeating in his ear, “Let go… let go…”
At the time, it was as if he had been bewitched by the devil. He almost let go several times under that strange entrancement. Fortunately, he kept this inexplicable impulse under control and didn’t lead them to tragedy.
If he alone experienced it, he could brush it off as coincidence, but he and Tang Mianmian both experienced this sort of thing at the same time… Could this still be counted as a coincidence?
Xiao Tangqiu voiced his doubts to Tang Mianmian. The two of them looked at each other and couldn’t help but feel a chill in their spines. It turned out that both of them had been subjected to the same entrancement. If one of them failed to resist the entrancement just now, they would’ve watched their friend die while the murderer would be themselves…
Xiao Tangqiu pondered about it. If he failed to resist the temptation and let go of Tang Mianmian on the roller coaster, the latter would’ve been thrown off the roller coaster and fall to his death. Then, even if he survived alone, he would’ve died at the edge of the cliff just now because no one would be there to pull him up.
He saved Tang Mianmian and later Tang Mianmian also saved him. If he hadn’t saved Tang Mianmian earlier, he would’ve died just now because there would be no Tang Mianmian to save him. One thing led to the other- cause and effect.
Xiao Tangqiu didn’t know whether this was a coincidence or not, and he had no way of knowing for sure, so he could only worry on his own.
Tang Mianmian obviously didn’t think so much. He leaned on Xiao Tangqiu shoulder and leisurely said, “Thank God, we controlled ourselves! Buddies for life live and die together!”
Xiao Tangqiu smiled, “Okay, let’s quickly go home. We have to hurry up. There are still two more games.”
Tang Mianmian immediately pulled a long face. “We’ve been playing for so long. No, we’ve been played for so long, has it really only been two games?!”
Xiao Tangqiu sighed. He was right, they had spent a lot of time, but they had only just survived the first two events. There were still two more. No one knew what the next event was and what terrible things were waiting for them. Their goal was to live until dawn and then escape from this death playground.
Other people came to the amusement park to play, but they came to be played!
They laughed bitterly, then helped each other as they staggered toward the entrance of the ride.
Although they were lucky enough to keep their lives, they were slightly injured when they landed earlier, especially Xiao Tangqiu, whose calf seemed to be fractured. He felt a bit weak which should have been caused by landing wrongly.
But soon, Xiao Tangqiu suddenly remembered that they had a special hemostatic agent and took it out.
