Chapter 229: No Escape
On the fifth day, Qin Yi still hadn’t found Lan Jiaojiao.
Qin Yi sat on the mountain top, thinking about what he would do to escape if he were Lan Jiaojiao in danger.
But Qin Yi quickly gave up.
First, he’s not Lan Jiaojiao. Second, the terrain here is complex, and Lan Jiaojiao would probably run aimlessly in her escape.
Qin Yi took out his phone and looked at it, realizing it had run out of battery at some point. Even if it had power, it wouldn’t be useful; Qin Yi discovered when he came in that there was no signal in this Thousand-mile Mountain.
Qin Yi thought of every method he could, even chopping wood to carve his name on it and setting it adrift in the stream, hoping Lan Jiaojiao would see it.
The sunlight was glaring, and Qin Yi suddenly perked up, realizing that the only way to determine direction in these mountains was the sun. The people of Longxia have a special sentiment towards the word East, like the sunrise in the east and Purple Energy coming from the east, all related to the East.
Therefore, whether floating on the sea or trapped in an inescapable predicament, people will walk toward the sun.
Might Lan Jiaojiao be heading east all the way?
He entered from the south, so he’s been heading north.
