This is the moment she's been waiting for.

Just as Bai Wei was about to pounce on her, Su Tang did not confront her head-on. Instead, she seemingly slipped in a panic and retreated to the side and back in an extremely nimble manner.

She retreated towards the darkest, most inconspicuous area of ​​the mud.

"Trying to run? No way!" Seeing this, Bai Wei thought Su An was finally scared, and a morbid sense of vengeful pleasure welled up in her heart. Without thinking, she mustered all her strength and chased after him.

She stepped inside.

Then, the expression on her face froze.

"Um?"

A strange sensation came from her right foot.

She felt as if her right foot was being gripped tightly by an invisible hand, and below her ankle, she instantly lost all feeling, followed by a cold, sticky sensation that quickly spread up her body.

This mud...something's not right!

She tried to pull her foot out, but the mud was like paste that had been simmering for three days and three nights, with a huge suction force that made her unable to move.

This mud...something's not right!

The harder she tried, the deeper she sank.

In just a few seconds, the dark brown mud had already submerged her calves and was still slowly rising at a visible rate.

"What...what's going on?" Bai Wei panicked completely. The madness on her face faded, replaced by a deep-seated fear.

Su Tang stood a few steps away in the "safe zone," watching her with a leisurely air, a faint smile playing on her lips.

"Comrade Bai Wei, it seems you're having a run of bad luck, stepping into a swampy 'mud hole'."

This area was the deepest and stickiest spot that she and Chen Xiaocao had marked before. Once you get stuck, it's impossible for one person to get out on their own.

Mud hole?

Although Bai Wei did not grow up in the mountains, she had heard of this kind of thing. It was the most dangerous trap in the swamp. Once you fell in, it was like falling into quicksand. The more you struggled, the faster you sank.

"You! You plotted against me!" Bai Wei instantly understood. She pointed at Su Tang, her voice trembling with fear.

Su Tang shrugged: "I just happened to dodge it. Who told you to chase after me?"

At that moment, all the laughter in the room stopped.

Everyone could tell something was wrong.

Bai Wei wasn't acting; she was genuinely trapped!

The mud had reached above her knees. She was like a scallion planted in the ground, with only her upper body exposed. Her face was filled with terror and despair.

"Help...help me! Zhang Kui! Help me out!" She finally put aside all her pride and cried out for help to Zhang Kui, who was not far away.

Zhang Kui was also stunned. He looked at Bai Wei, who was sinking deeper and deeper into the mire, and then at Su Tang, who remained calm. His mind was a little blank. But he still rushed over instinctively.

"Don't move! I'll pull you out!"

He stretched out his large, fan-like hand, grabbed Bai Wei's arm, and then pulled her back with a sudden force!

"Ah—!" Bai Wei let out a shrill scream. She felt like her arm was about to be dislocated by this idiot, but her lower body, stuck in the mud, didn't budge.

"You...you be gentle! You idiot! Do you want to break my arm?!" she cursed in pain.

"I...I can't get any strength!" Zhang Kui was sweating profusely, his feet slipping in the wet mud, and he could feel the huge suction force.

He gritted his teeth, let go, changed his posture, wrapped his arms around Bai Wei's waist, and pulled her backward with all his might, like a tug-of-war!

"Hey—ya!"

His face turned red, and the veins on his neck bulged.

However, Bai Wei remained rooted to the ground.
