There wasn't even the sound of birds.

A dark figure emerged from a jungle and slowly appeared in the moonlight.

"I almost starved to death!"

During the day, he was still fleeing around in the mountains.

Little did I know there were so many cameras hidden in these mountains.

He could only wander around the edge of the no-man's-land, and after most of the day he finally made it out.

I didn't eat anything all day.

Even wild rabbits are eaten raw, and he dared not light a fire for fear of being discovered.

Ma Yongping fled to many cities before finally arriving at the city closest to the border.

As long as we can cross these mountains, we can reach that underdeveloped neighboring country smoothly.

You could live there for years and no one would find out.

He had already taken precautions.

The key issue is that I'm already exhausted and hungry after running this far.

They thought that if they escaped from here, their plan would surely succeed, but little did they know that there were so many ferocious beasts in these mountains, and even more mosquitoes, insects, and rodents.

Even more terrifying.

I almost died inside after only half a day.

I never imagined that in such a developed human society, just entering the mountains would leave me in such a sorry state.

Soon, the aroma of food filled the air.

Are there still people living deep in the mountains?

In an instant, his eyes lit up.

It had been a long time since it had smelled the aroma of food. In the mountains, it had seen many animal carcasses that were smelly and raw, and it dared not eat them.

I'm afraid that I'll die in the mountains before I even end up in jail—that would be truly humiliating!

He pulled out a small knife that he always carried with him.

Ma Yongping carefully inspected the area around the yard. Looking from the backyard, he saw that many livestock were asleep inside.

There was no sound.

"Great, this family doesn't even have a dog to guard their house! How stupid!"

He climbed over the wall into the backyard.
