Trapped In Idol Drama
Chapter 67: The Cross Bank

Ding Xiuxiu was speechless.

“Hahaha~”

In the darkness, a soft laugh sounded.

Regardless of how sunny they were, in this deep forest, one could clearly hear their voices. Wei Shenglan and the others had heard their conversation and laughed at them,

Ye Xi wanted to tease Ding Xiuxiu a little more when she saw a hint of flame ahead. Since Wei Shenglan and the others stopped, he did as well.

Ding Xiuxiu was still immersed in the thought that he could not retaliate and he accidentally bumped into Luo Nuanfeng's back.

Luo Nuanfeng subconsciously held her hand and helped her stabilize her body, saying in a low voice, "Shut up and don't move."

Ding Xiuxiu had seen the flame in front of them as well, nodded and said, "OK."

Ye Xi turned off the flashlight on her phone and said, "Everything, turn off your flashlight."

They quickly turned off their flashlights and the originally pitch-black road became darker.

Ding Xiuxiu was slightly frightened, clinging to the corner of Luo Nuanfeng's sleeves.

It was dark and there was no moon, only stars scattered in the sky. The only rays of light were blocked by the branches of trees crossing each other. They were already used to the darkness but they still could not see the path in front of them clearly.

Ye Xi gave up trying to get used to it and said, "Let's walk through the darkness."

“Hm.”

"okay."

He heard a scattered response.

There were many crushed stones and weeds on the ground, making it difficult to walk and creating fear as they walked in the darkness. The sound of their heavy breathing appeared occasionally.

Ye Xi fumbled at the darkness and softly said, "We should make two groups, three people per group."

"okay." Wei Shenglan replied first and he continued, "I, you, and Xiao Hai are in one group while Ding Xiuxiu, Xiao Yu, and Nuanfeng are in another group."

Ye Xi nodded and said, "Ding Xiuxiu, what do you think?"

Luo Nuanfeng said, “OK. Xiao Yu and I have grouping experience.”

“Aduh!” In the darkness, Ding Xiuxiu groaned.

He was very unlucky, stepped into another puddle of water and he held back his screams.

Ye Xi asked, "Are you okay?"

Ding Xiuxiu replied, "Yes."

After that, he shook off the water from his feet.

After they determined their strategy, the rest continued to walk ahead.

As they got closer to the fire, it got bigger. It was originally the size of a star, then the size of a fist, and now the size of a sink…

Their vision became clearer and quickly, they walked to the edge of the forest. They hid behind a sturdy tree trunk and observed the scene in front of them.

There's a river about 30 meters from here and some campfires. There was an iron shelf above the campfire made into a simple BBQ shelf, with meat on it. About seven or eight people gathered.

Ye Xi heard people devouring food, obviously starving.

She was also very hungry, but she was good at holding back feelings and acting polite.

Who knew that they had quite good luck and continued walking forward, ending up on the riverbank casually.

People were all laughing and freezing, their voices loud and clear.

“My brother, who knows that group of people is quite cunning and cunning. They even hurt Brother Xiong, but fortunately, he bought his walkie-talkie with them.” A tall and thin man expressionlessly said to a skinny man.

Other than the one who spoke was a worried fat man. “Sister Xiong and the others are injured, so can we keep going as planned?”

The leader turned around and looked towards him, saying, “No matter if we can or not, we should leave. Do you understand?"

The fat man said, “Yes, yes, yes. Brother, do you want the rabbit's foot? ”

As he said this, he took down the rabbit from the BBQ shelf and sent it to him.

The older brother bit and immediately caught fire. He violently moved the roasted rabbit to the side and spat.

The skinny man by his side hurriedly delivered a glass of water.

The older brother took a glass of water and took a sip, saying in a cold tone, “I want them to die a tragic death. How dare they touch my people ?! ”

"Son is mighty and tough!"

"Right, we need to teach them a lesson."

"Since third brother leads us, everything will definitely go our way!"

“Haha~”

…

The atmosphere becomes harmonious.

Ye Xi wanted to take off her shoes and slam them into their heads.

They are the ones who want to kill us and they don't allow us to avenge them?

Double standard…

Wei Shenglan looked at Luo Nuanfeng and the two looked at each other, moving to the side.

Ye Xin followed Wei Shenglan and moved aside as well.

Although there was a silencer on the weapon, it could not completely silence the gunfire. Although it silences the voice for most parts. Since the kidnappers are eating BBQ now and chatting about their future, they are not paying much attention to these voices.

Four bullets fired at once, shooting the kidnappers.

Wei Shenglan and the others did not stop because of this, shooting a few more times. Then, they hid behind the tree trunk.

Ye Xi moved to the side and took out a bullet, sending it to them.

At first, Ding Xiuxiu's mind became blank from terror. However, he did not forget what they were talking about before. After they finished shooting, he sent bullets to them and hid behind a tree trunk with Luo Nuanfeng.

They heard a terrified cry on the river bank.

Ye Xi peeked out from the tree trunk and looked at it. The majority of people lay on the ground and curled painfully into a ball. But there were one or two people who struggled to take their weapons, hiding behind them who could not stand up and using them as human shields.

Ye Xi hid again and said, "There are two people on the far right side of the campfire."

"okay."

Wei Shenglan and the others gently answered and refilled the bullets, moving out of the trunk. They pointed their guns at the far right side of the campfire and fired.

After they finished, Wei Shenglan put down his gun and said, "Should we shoot next time or go and see him?"

Nan Gongghai said, “Fire again and it is best if it is directed to the arm. Because if they die, we'll be killers.”

“Hm.” Wei Shenglan nodded.

Luo Nuanfeng did not put down his weapon, so he immediately started to replenish his bullets.

Ye Xi had originally thought there would be a fierce battle, but who knew these kidnappers were careless and careless, or were too trusting of the third brother. Therefore, they gained an unfair advantage against him.

Everyone finished filling up the weapons and walked over to look at it.

Ye Xi scanned the surroundings and noticed that most of the people were shot in their legs, stomachs, and arms. From this, one could tell that Wei Shenglan and the others had quite good shooting skills as well as psychological qualities. Otherwise, they could have been nervous and hit the wrong place, perhaps even aiming at his heart.

"Pink…"

The one who spoke was the older brother and he was shot the most, one of the people standing. He was shot in the arm and it was a spectacular sight.

Even though he was in a lot of pain, he stubbornly stood up and looked at them.

Ye Xi walked over and kicked him.

"Aah!" The older brother groaned softly, as if he was suppressing his voice and unwilling.

"Oh my God!" This came from Ding Xiuxiu and he could not bear to see the people on the ground. He closed his eyes and walked over to the BBQ shelf, picked up a rabbit and asked, "Ye Xi, can we eat this?"

Ye Xi looked at him and was a little angry. He walked over and stepped on the older brother's hand before going to the BBQ shelf and picking up two rabbits. He said, “Let's grab some and eat on the way. Let's cross the river first.”

Wei Shenglan did not touch the rabbit and instead, picked up their walkie-talkie, threw it into the river.

After they finished dealing with the matter, they immediately headed across the river.

The river was about three meters wide and there was no bridge; they did not know how deep the river was.

There was an iron bar that was about a meter long near the campfire. They grabbed it and tested the depths of the river.

The iron rod walked about halfway and reached the bottom.

The river is not deep.

Everyone was at ease now and immediately crossed the river.

Although the water was not deep, there were many slippery pebbles and grasses at the bottom of the river. The clumps flow down the riverbank and across their calves. That slippery feeling made them cringe.

They held hands and tried their best to keep their balance, crossing the river.

There is not much land across the river and most of it contains trees.

They rose to the ground and wiggled their feet first, trying to get rid of the water to the best of their ability.

After they wiggled their legs for a while, they began to eat the food they found.

“It's delicious. Why didn't I know that BBQ was so good before?” Ding Xiuxiu almost cried. He never wanted to thank the world for giving people, food.

Everyone nodded and focused on eating, saying nothing.

Ye Xi usually had a great appetite and she was starving now. But now that he had suddenly eaten something greasy, it was hard for him to swallow after a few bites. He even wanted to vomit, so he put down the meat and let out a heavy sigh. He saw some people coming out of the forest across from them.

They stopped and then quickly ran towards the big brother and the others, raised their weapons and aimed towards the group.

“Run fast!” Ye Xi called out and started to pull people towards the forest.

Once they heard his voice, before their minds could process what was happening, their bodies had already started running.

“Bang! Bang out! Bang!”

The bullets all landed on the tree branches and missed everyone perfectly again.

Other than running, Ye Xi did not know what to do as the voices were vibrating in their ears the entire time. The two people holding his hand suddenly stopped and he could not control himself, falling on the person on the right side.

Wei Shenglan pulled her into his arms and she leaned against the tree trunk, pointing the gun across the riverbank.

There was plenty of space across the river and it would make them a clearer target; it seemed like their side would have a higher chance of winning.

Wei Shenglan and the others had the same thought.

They were all lucky children, so how could they survive being hit? Even during life or death situations.

Plus, they have a higher chance of winning. So how can they run away and do nothing?

For example, start attacking.
