She looked at the drone hovering overhead.
It must be thermal imaging.
Otherwise, it would be impossible to find them accurately no matter where they go.
In other words, if this thing weren't here today, even if she and Lu Ming had wings, they wouldn't be able to escape!
So many people have already died because of her; Lu Ming cannot afford to lose his life here because of her.
Just then, She Yalan's voice came from the drone overhead.
"Run! Why aren't you running anymore? Hehehe... No matter who you are, I advise you to hand over Zhou Chunhua voluntarily, otherwise, I can make you wish you were dead."
She struggled free, panting, and said, "Get out! Who let you come! Get out of here!"
However, Lu Ming's arms around her did not loosen at all; on the contrary, they tightened even more as she struggled.
"Don't bother. I'm not going to abandon you." As he spoke, Lu Ming narrowed his eyes as he looked at the drone.
Then, with a quick turn, he pushed and pulled her into another alley.
This time, however, he ran very fast.
It was several times faster than when I took her for a walk in circles before.
When they turned into another alley, Zhou Chunhua realized that they had been in this alley not long ago.
In other words, are they going in circles?
Zhou Chunhua couldn't help but look at Lu Ming.
Just as I was about to speak up to remind her, she suddenly shut her mouth.
Who is Lu Ming?
He had lived in Ganxi Village before, so there was no way he couldn't see that even she could see it.
There's only one reason why Lu Ming would still lead her around in circles: he's playing them for fools!
Sure enough, when they could faintly hear footsteps, Lu Ming put his arm around her and led her through another courtyard, bypassing the group of people who had surrounded them.
The drones were constantly blaring overhead.
This time, Lu Ming raised his hand and pulled the trigger.
After a gunshot, the drone that was not far from them fell directly from the sky.
"Grit your teeth, this is our only chance to break out!" Before Lu Ming could finish speaking, he grabbed her and they started running like madmen.
Exhausted, Zhou Chunhua had only one thought in her mind: she couldn't hold Lu Ming back.
So she followed Ya, almost controlling her two numb legs with her willpower.
In the blink of an eye, the exit behind the village reappeared before her eyes.
Although there were still lights there, they were far fewer than before.
This time, Lu Ming didn't pull her back, but instead rushed straight towards the flickering light in the darkness.
With several gunshots rang out, the sparks fell from the sky to the ground.
So Lu Ming was dragging her around in circles just now in order to lure away the people guarding this place!
Just then, gunshots rang out from the other side.
Lu Ming's steps did not falter in the slightest.
He held a gun in one hand and dragged her with the other, charging straight at her.
Several times, Zhou Chunhua even heard something whistling past her ear with a whoosh.
God knows, at that moment her heart was in a state of turmoil, more extreme than if she had been on a roller coaster.
Riding a roller coaster is at most a roller coaster with its ups and downs, but her heartbeat at this moment was sometimes fast and sometimes slow.
Especially when something brushed past her ear, the uncontrollable suffocation almost killed her.
She was scared, and her body instinctively wanted to turn around and run away.
But Lu Ming held her tightly, not giving her any chance.
It wasn't until she saw the torches that had fallen to the ground that she also noticed the corpses lying motionless on the ground.
In a daze, she escaped through the back door of Ganxi Village.
"Don't get distracted! Hang in there a little longer!"
Lu Ming's voice pulled her back from her shaky thoughts.
Zhou Chunhua then realized that they were already in the mountains and forests.
Beneath our feet lies a narrow path overgrown with weeds.
She could only follow Lu Ming forward, stumbling along by the moonlight.
Looking at that straight back in front of her, Zhou Chunhua felt incredibly conflicted.
Just then, a commotion arose in the silent forest.
"They're catching up! Let's go!" Lu Ming pulled her along, quickening their pace.
Zhou Chunhua's legs were almost numb at this point.
Let alone running, every step I took felt like stepping on tens of thousands of needles.
But seeing Lu Ming holding her hand tightly, she surprisingly didn't give up. Instead, she spurred herself on again and again to keep up with Lu Ming's pace.
Before long, they arrived at the stream.
Behind them, the low hum of a drone could be heard again.
Lu Ming turned his head and glanced at her before pulling her towards the top of the mountain.
"Wait, wait." She struggled to stop.
"Can't run anymore? Come on, I'll carry you." Lu Ming leaned against her and half-squatted down.
She quickly shook her head, licked her chapped lower lip, and said, "Running up the mountain is a dead end."
That was the most she could say.
“They have drones. If we run downhill, they might catch up with us before we even get out of the mountains. The only way is to run uphill, because that's where the only pool of water is. Once we get there, She Yalan’s drones will be useless.”
Before she could react, Lu Ming squatted down again with his back to her.
"Trust me. I will definitely be able to get you back alive."
Zhou Chunhua pushed the person away.
She managed to say with difficulty, "Okay! We...we will definitely be able to live and go back."
This time, she took Lu Ming's hand and ran up the mountain with all her might, following his pace.
