Chapter 50.1

Xiao Tangqiu and Tang Mianmian fell into despair at the same time.

Although they already knew that human nature was simply unreliable and teammates would sell you out at any moment after playing so many horror games, they didn’t want to experience and be reminded of this lesson under such circumstances!

“You fucking bastard! Get back here now!” Tang Mianmian shouted frantically at the sporty student as he ran away. Although he knew that this was futile, Tang Mianmian was still unwilling to give up that last glimmer of hope. If no one came to give them a hand, they could only be trapped here!

However, no matter how Xiao Tangqiu and Tang Mianmian shouted, the sporty student, who ran away at full speed, didn’t stop. He used his good physical strength and sporty genes to the extreme. In a short time, his figure disappeared completely from their sight.

The two were left to their despair. Now there were only three survivors left and the sporty student got cold feet and escaped without them. Where else could they find another person to save them?

They looked at each other and Xiao Tangqiu couldn’t help but smile bitterly, “I’m sorry, I brought you trouble. If you hadn’t come to save me, you might have escaped by now...”

“What bullshit are you talking about?!” Tang Mianmian was very angry. “If you hadn’t held onto me on the roller coaster just now, I would have been thrown out and fallen to my death! Isn’t it only right that I save you?”

Xiao Tangqiu paused. “In fact, I wasn’t thinking so much at the time...”

“I didn’t think much about it earlier too. The only thought I had is that I must rescue you and that we must leave together. No one should be left behind!” Tang Mianmian snorted, huffing and puffing in anger. But he was soon discouraged. “I’m to blame for not thinking just now. I should have known that he might leave the two of us and run by himself....”

“Even if you had thought about it, it’s no use. Are you going to make that guy come down to save me, and you stay on top to pull us up? No one but you would come down and save me,” Xiao Tangqiu sighed.

On second thought, Tang Mianmian felt that what he said was true. His willingness to save Xiao Tangqiu didn’t apply to others. What’s more, they were just strangers who met by chance and have known each other for less than a few hours.

“Well, it’s no use continuing to grapple with this problem. The tree is about to collapse. Let’s find a way to escape quickly!” Xiao Tangqiu had just finished speaking when the tree trunk they were standing on shook even more violently. Right then, sand and stones were flying everywhere and the branches and leaves were shaking.

“Fuck, fuck, fuck! Don’t you dare use that unlucky mouth of yours again at this critical moment! ” Tang Mianmian immediately screamed out in fright.

Xiao Tangqiu suddenly discovered something. “I’m sorry... Wait a minute! Look! The tree has been uprooted!”

Tang Mianmian was shocked, “Wuwuwu, will you stop pointing out the obvious at this point!”

The looseness of the surrounding soil made the long roots fall downwards. They could grab the roots as long as they stretched out their arms!

It was really true that when one door closes, another opens!

“Hurry up! Before this tree is completely uprooted, we must grab these roots and climb up!” Xiao Tangqiu said decisively, “Tang Mianmian, you climb up first! I’ll help you from down here! After you climb up, pull me up!”

His decision was actually quite risky. After all, they didn’t know how long this tree could hold out. Maybe it would be completely uprooted and fall off the cliff as soon as Tang Mianmian climbed up. At this time, whoever climbed up first would undoubtedly have a better chance at surviving.

At this point, others might even argue with each other but neither of them hesitated. The moment Xiao Tangqiu made his decision known, Tang Mianmian reached for the roots of the tree.

Right now, the tree was already at the end of its tether. Although it had not yet been completely uprooted, it was only a matter of time. Most of its roots had been completely exposed and only a small part were still firmly embedded.

When Tang Mianmian grabbed the roots, the soil and sand crumbled even faster and blew in the wind. The tree shook even more violently. Xiao Tangqiu didn’t hesitate, holding up Tang Mianmian and giving him a hard push.

As a small time actor, Tang Mianmian didn’t have much time and money to work out in the gym but he was able to build up his physical strength and muscle so he managed to quickly climb up easily.

Naturally, Tang Mianmian wouldn’t run away like the sporty student. As soon as he climbed up, he turned around, lay on the edge of the cliff and stretched out his hand to pull Xiao Tangqiu.

Xiao Tangqiu held out his hand and caught Tang Mianmian’s without hesitation. At the same time, the trunk that he was standing on finally broke off and fell into the abyss below. Suddenly losing the thing supporting his weight undoubtedly made it much more difficult for him.

Tang Mianmian also struggled. However, he still grabbed Xiao Tangqiu’s hand and desperately pulled him up.

After the tree trunk broke, the tree started to uproot faster and faster and the land under Tang Mianmian’s feet began to shake and loosen. The edge was about to crack and fall off at any moment but he still firmly grasped Xiao Tangqiu’s hand.

Xiao Tangqiu severely gritted his teeth, grabbed Tang Mianmian’s hand and stepped on a branch, climbing up the cliff!

After they had both climbed up, they didn’t dare stop at the edge of the cliff. They ran forward as fast as they could for more than ten meters before they fell to the ground exhausted and gasping for air.

Just then, there came a loud crash!

Xiao Tangqiu looked back and saw that the edge of the cliff they had just stood on had completely collapsed and the tree had fallen into the abyss.

They couldn’t help but tremble with fear. If they had hesitated just now, even if it was only for two or three seconds, they would’ve fallen to their deaths with the tree! It was so close!

It really was too close!

They looked at each other in a trance and at the same time, fell back to the ground and laughed out loud for having survived.

“Hahahaha, just now I almost shouted at you ‘Quick let go! Otherwise we would both die!’......” Xiao Tangqiu laughed while gasping for air and said, “Then you would probably say ‘I won’t let go! Let’s die together!’ ...It’s totally like a romance tragedy out of a tv drama!”

Tang Mianmian also laughed, “Hahahahaha......”

He smiled and suddenly stopped. “Actually, I almost let go of your hand just now.”

Xiao Tangqiu also paused. Then he said, “Even if you let go, I wouldn’t blame you. You’ve done your best.”

Tang Mianmian lay on the ground with his eyes wide open. “But I would blame myself! It was so weird just now. I kept thinking, ‘Let go! Let go! Or else I’ll die!’ ......Several times, I almost let go...”

“I tried very hard to control myself and finally didn’t let go... I must’ve been possessed! It was like someone was talking in my ear! He was repeating the same sentence, telling me to quickly let go. I really must’ve been possessed!”

Xiao Tangqiu instantly remembered that when they were on the roller coaster, it seemed that there was also a person who kept repeating in his ear, “Let go... let go...”

At the time, it was as if he had been bewitched by the devil. He almost let go several times under that strange entrancement. Fortunately, he kept this inexplicable impulse under control and didn’t lead them to tragedy.

If he alone experienced it, he could brush it off as coincidence, but he and Tang Mianmian both experienced this sort of thing at the same time... Could this still be counted as a coincidence?

Xiao Tangqiu voiced his doubts to Tang Mianmian. The two of them looked at each other and couldn’t help but feel a chill in their spines. It turned out that both of them had been subjected to the same entrancement. If one of them failed to resist the entrancement just now, they would’ve watched their friend die while the murderer would be themselves...

Xiao Tangqiu pondered about it. If he failed to resist the temptation and let go of Tang Mianmian on the roller coaster, the latter would’ve been thrown off the roller coaster and fall to his death. Then, even if he survived alone, he would’ve died at the edge of the cliff just now because no one would be there to pull him up.

He saved Tang Mianmian and later Tang Mianmian also saved him. If he hadn’t saved Tang Mianmian earlier, he would’ve died just now because there would be no Tang Mianmian to save him. One thing led to the other- cause and effect.

Xiao Tangqiu didn’t know whether this was a coincidence or not, and he had no way of knowing for sure, so he could only worry on his own.

Tang Mianmian obviously didn’t think so much. He leaned on Xiao Tangqiu shoulder and leisurely said, “Thank God, we controlled ourselves! Buddies for life live and die together!”

Xiao Tangqiu smiled, “Okay, let’s quickly go home. We have to hurry up. There are still two more games.”

Tang Mianmian immediately pulled a long face. “We’ve been playing for so long. No, we’ve been played for so long, has it really only been two games?!”

Xiao Tangqiu sighed. He was right, they had spent a lot of time, but they had only just survived the first two events. There were still two more. No one knew what the next event was and what terrible things were waiting for them. Their goal was to live until dawn and then escape from this death playground.

Other people came to the amusement park to play, but they came to be played!

They laughed bitterly, then helped each other as they staggered toward the entrance of the ride.

Although they were lucky enough to keep their lives, they were slightly injured when they landed earlier, especially Xiao Tangqiu, whose calf seemed to be fractured. He felt a bit weak which should have been caused by landing wrongly.

But soon, Xiao Tangqiu suddenly remembered that they had a special hemostatic agent and took it out.
