Chapter 324 - 323: Testing the Waters
On the way back to Beijing, Xiao Bai calmed down, sinking into deep thought, considering what she could do, or what she was capable of doing.
Just sticking with Jiang Kechu and the others, her role was not significant. Why not seek a different path, using her advantages to look for a clue.
Not to mention how Jiang Kechu, Grandpa Xiao Bai and others planned to rescue Wan Chu’er and Yan Hui.
In some deep mountains, after climbing for several hours, the kidnappers finally stopped and threw Wan Chu’er onto the ground.
Although Wan Chu’er had braced herself, using her shoulder to cushion most of the impact, the fall still left her dizzy and nauseous. It took a while before the discomfort in her head slowly subsided. Only then did she have the energy to pay attention to her surroundings.
Her eyes were still covered, her mouth sealed, and her limbs immobilized. She could feel someone lying a few steps to her right because their breathing was very stable, not panting from the long journey. This person was, like her, a bound hostage.
Although she didn’t know the exact situation of this person, she thought that they could potentially ally when necessary.
Despite her blindness, her ears were not blocked, and she had undergone auditory training, so by relying on her hearing and touch, she had a rough understanding of her surroundings.
They seemed to be resting on a windswept slope, and since the temperature here was a few degrees lower than in Jingcheng City, she guessed they were heading north and that the mountain was around eight or nine hundred meters high.
All the way up the mountain, they encountered no signs of human habitation, not even the sound of cattle or sheep, so it must be a wilderness untouched by humans.
There were four kidnappers, and judging by their movements and breathing rate, they appeared to be strong. If she had been in good condition, perhaps she could have taken on two of them, but now, managing to defeat one would be an achievement.
Wan Chu’er’s spirit was heavy, but not worried about her own safety.
