Chapter 13: Caught in the Net
Chapter 13: Caught in the Net
Fortunately, after the ring had sucked enough blood, it finally released Jiang Mengyu's finger and automatically flew onto her ring finger.
Jiang Mengyu picked up the ring and looked at it: What kind of ghost is this, drinking so much of my blood?
A voice echoed in Mengyu's mind: "I'm not a ghost! I drank your blood to recognize you as my master."
In fact, the owner of the voice didn't say that it had accidentally drank a little too much.
Mengyu was even more terrified, a talking ring, how is that not a ghost?

She tried to take off the ring, but couldn't remove it no matter how hard she tried. Surely she couldn't chop off her own finger just to get the ring off?
Mengyu struggled for a long time and couldn't get the ring off, and the voice didn't appear again. Moreover, when she tried to look at the ring the way she looked at a storage talisman, she couldn't see anything.
In the end, she had no choice but to ignore it for the time being and planned to find a way to descend the cliff.
In her past life, she had climbed up using those vines, mainly wanting to hurry back, always thinking of getting to a road to hail a ride, but she hadn't expected that the ride she waited for would come to kill her.
In this life, she was not in a rush to return. Therefore, she planned to descend the cliff and then walk out along the water channel at the bottom.
Since her hometown was by a river, she could swim, and now that she had martial skills, she didn't have to fear as long as she didn't encounter any fierce beasts.
As for rescuing Jiang Haiyan or Pi Yuhua, once they entered Tiger Valley, they couldn't escape being sold.
She feared that they had already been "handled" by those wolf-like men on the very same night.
She was not capable of rescuing them alone. She could only think of getting help after escaping herself, by alerting the Public Security to save them.
Descending the cliff was not easy because the vines did not hang all the way to the bottom; by the time she was halfway down, there were no vines left.
It's said that going up a mountain is easy, but going down is hard; if it were her from the past life, she would have had no way of reaching the bottom.
Fortunately, she was now a First Level Martial Artist, and even though she had never learned rock climbing, she held onto some protruding rocks and stepped down little by little.
If she took one wrong step or slipped, she would fall from a height of over twenty meters and still end up with a broken body.
It took her a full three hours to climb down from the cliff until she was only six meters from the bottom.
Passing by a slightly flat area, she found some precious herbs, especially two Purple Leaf Ganodermas which were clearly over a thousand years old; she harvested them carefully.
However, the last rock was recessed inwards, making it impossible to climb down any further. The only way was to jump.
Six meters high, she recited the mantra silently, hoping to draw a bit of the Essence of Heaven and Earth to her feet before making the jump.
Just as her feet were about to touch the ground, a net was suddenly thrown from the side, firmly ensnaring her as she landed!
Jiang Mengyu never knew what it felt like to be caught in a net.
But today, she experienced it, a feeling of desperation. She racked her brains and even risked her life to jump off the cliff, all to escape these people.
Yet, after all her hardships coming down the cliff, she still couldn't escape being captured and returned.
Yes, she saw them, as two men jumped down from a nearby tree, and two more men ran over from another ambush spot.
Those two men were from Tiger Valley, and the two who had thrown the net were none other than her "husbands" from her previous life, Zhou Daleng and Zhou Erleng.
