Chapter 347 Rope Attack
There were a total of 28 Americans who sneaked into Yunhai City. When Yunhai City officials learned that Americans were selling problematic pills in their territory, they immediately sent people to investigate and arrest the Americans.
After some investigation, it was found that these Americans had sold a lot of pills in just a few days. They did not trade points. If you want to buy pills, you must exchange them. And the "things" they required to be exchanged must be coats and blankets made of steel-toothed rabbit skin, or various newly developed food.
According to statistics, these people purchased a huge amount of rabbit fur coats, blankets and food during their stay in Yunhai City, but when they were arrested, they could not find the place where they stored these supplies.
Yunhai City officials speculated that the supplies might have been hidden on the American's crashed plane, but when they arrived at the crashed plane, they found that it was empty.
At the same time, 28 captured Americans escaped from prison collectively, 15 of them escaped, 4 died, and the remaining 9 were captured.
Because of the 15 people who escaped, all the cities around Yunhai City were under martial law, including Fucheng. For several days in a row, Xia Xiaoman could hear the sound of the security team marching in unison outside his home.
…
After more than half a month of tracking, the 15 Americans who escaped were still not found. It was speculated that they should have left the South, and the streets returned to being deserted. The security team that suddenly appeared disappeared overnight, and the Steel-toothed Rabbit also disappeared with them.
These past two days, Maodan often ran to the yard to fish for rabbits with the innards of a steel-toothed rabbit in his mouth. After fishing for a long time, he didn't see a single steel-toothed rabbit.
Maodan was unhappy after not eating Steel-Tooth Rabbit Meat for two consecutive days. He scratched the door of the yard with his claws and wanted to go outside to hunt.
Xia Xiaoman was reluctant to do so. The skuas were circling back and forth in the sky. If she was caught by a skua, she would be skinned alive. She didn't want to experience bird flu again.
Seeing that Xia Xiaoman refused to open the door, Maodan angrily pointed his butt at her and lay down by the door, refusing to go back into the house.
Xia Xiaoman, wrapped in a rabbit fur coat, shouted helplessly: "Maodan, come back! It's so cold, aren't you afraid of freezing to death!"
"Awoo~Awoo~" It would be fine if it was frozen to death. A big snow wolf was locked up in the yard every day and not even allowed to go out and catch a rabbit!
Maodan was being petty and covered his ears with his paws, pretending not to hear what Xia Xiaoman said.
Xia Xiaoman rolled her eyes speechlessly, "Okay, okay, I'll let you go out, okay!"
Maodan pricked up his ears and looked at Xia Xiaoman with cunning eyes, looking impatient.
Xia Xiaoman sighed, opened the gate and let it out. As soon as the gate was opened, Maodan immediately ran out to catch the steel-toothed rabbit. Xia Xiaoman was worried and followed him.
There were not many steel-toothed rabbits on the street, and Maodan fished for half an hour before catching two. Unwilling to give up, Maodan went to a remote place in an attempt to catch more rabbits.
Suddenly, it seemed to hear something and stood there, looking around vigilantly. Seeing this, Xia Xiaoman slowly moved his hand behind his waist.
“Ahhh!! Someone…someone’s dead! Ah! What the hell, ouch, go away…”
"Uh, uh, ho! Help...help, ho, ho, is there anyone, help...help..."
The noise coming from the alley became smaller and smaller, until there was no sound at the back. Maodan's fur stood up, and he showed a rare fear, quietly backing away.
Xia Xiaoman's heart was in his throat. Something that even Maodan was afraid of was obviously not so easy to deal with.
Suddenly, Maodan turned around and called out to Xia Xiaoman, then quickly ran back. Seeing this, Xia Xiaoman immediately ran to catch up. But the next second, she felt something wrapped around her foot, and Xia Xiaoman fell to the ground before she could react.
Maodan, who was running in front, was also tripped and fell flat on his face. Xia Xiaoman looked up and saw something wrapped around Maodan in the darkness, pinning him to the ground.
Maodan howled violently, struggling and twisting his body and head, trying to bite the things that bound him. But no matter how hard he struggled, it was useless, and he was bound even tighter. The things that bound him seemed to be embedded in his flesh, making it difficult for Maodan to breathe.
Xia Xiaoman was not much better off, with an unknown thing binding her hands and feet and tightly strangling her neck. The more she struggled, the tighter the "rope" became.
Xia Xiaoman felt like her neck was about to be strangled. At this moment, she finally understood why the sound just now became smaller and smaller. With her neck being strangled like this, it was good enough to be able to make a sound.
Seeing that he was about to be strangled to death, Xia Xiaoman grabbed the "rope" and forcibly put the "rope" into the space, regardless of whether the space could accommodate living things.
The spatial energy gathered in his hands, and the next second, the 'rope' disappeared out of thin air. Xia Xiaoman did not feel any pain in his chest, which meant that these 'ropes' were not animals that needed to breathe air.
Seeing that Maodan's howling was getting smaller and smaller, Xia Xiaoman didn't have time to think about it. He ran forward, grabbed the "rope" that was tied to Maodan and immediately put it into the space.
After being freed from his restraints, Maodan gasped for breath, staring at the dark alley with fearful eyes.
Xia Xiaoman wanted to check if Maodan was injured, but at this moment, her feet were entangled by the "rope" again. The "rope" pulled back hard, and Xia Xiaoman was dragged for a distance without noticing. When she reacted, she immediately drew the axe from her waist, turned over and sat up to cut the "rope" wrapped around her feet.
But the ropes were so tough that they couldn't be cut after several attempts. Xia Xiaoman made a quick decision, replaced the axe with a Tang sword, and cut the rope into two sections with just one stroke.
Before Xia Xiaoman could breathe a sigh of relief, five or six "ropes" appeared. Xia Xiaoman was startled and quickly got up and ran away with Maodan.
He ran back home in one breath, closed the gate of the yard, and leaned against the door, breathing heavily.
Zhang Can heard the noise and came out, "Sister Xia, what happened to you?" He saw Maodan covered in blood and asked, "Did you get robbed? Why is Maodan so injured?"
Xia Xiaoman looked down at Maodan, "Maodan, are you okay?" As she spoke, she realized that her throat was very painful and her voice was very hoarse.
Maodan was whimpering softly, and the sound was different from usual. He must have hurt his throat.
Zhang Can became more and more curious about who could have hurt Xia Xiaoman and Maodan. "Sister Xia, who did this to you? Do you want me to talk to the boss and avenge you?"
Xia Xiaoman shook her head. "Well, I don't know who did it. Don't tell Sister Yu'e about this for now. No, well, if you want to tell her, well, I'll tell her in person."
These 'ropes' are so strange. If Li Yu'e is not told, something could easily go wrong if she is caught off guard.
Zhang Can's fighting ability was not as high as hers, so it was safer for her to go out and look for Li Yu'e. If she encountered a sneak attack from the 'rope' again, she would at least be sure to escape.
