Chapter 197: 197: Don’t Know
Bai Youwei asked him, “What exactly is the Snake Maze?”
“I really don’t know!” the man cried, “If I knew what this maze was all about, I would have escaped long ago! I didn’t deliberately deceive you, I truly didn’t know!”
“Then pick up what you do know.” Bai Youwei glared at him coldly, “Don’t play tricks on me!”
The man pleaded in agony, “Spare me, please! I truly don’t know anything…”
“Xiaoxin.” Bai Youwei turned her head to Pan Xiaoxin, “Take your cleaver. If ‘don’t know’ comes out of his mouth again, give him a cut.” Pan Xiaoxin:
Chang Weicai hesitated, “Weiwei, this… this isn’t right, right?”
“Chang, this guy isn’t being straight with us. He won’t tell the truth unless we show him some color.” Bai Youwei waved Pan Xiaoxin over, “Come here, stand by me.”
Pan Xiaoxin glanced at Chang Weicai, then at Bai Youwei.
He felt deeply conflicted.
He picked up the cleaver from a pool of blood and sludge, walked over in silence, and whispered, “Where… where should I cut?” Bai Youwei casually replied, “Cut wherever you want.”
Pan Xiaoxin:
Chang Weicai felt it was really inappropriate, “What about… letting me do it?” How could such a task be left to an Il-year-old kid?
“No need.” Bai Youwei responded indifferently, “Chang, you watch the door for us, so no more monsters can get in.”
A few words gave Chang Weicai a task that he couldn’t refuse.
Chang cast another look at the man on the floor before advising, “We won’t harm you. Just tell us anything about the maze, there’s no need to… sigh… ‘
Chang sighed, picked up his crutch and headed outside.
The man on the ground was filled with both grief and anger!
They had a blade to him and still claimed they wouldn’t harm him! What kind of people were these!
Bai Youwei asked one last time, “What exactly is the Snake Maze?”
The man cringed, truly frightened of her, and replied, “It’s…it’s a gluttonous snake maze… The snake eats monsters inside the maze. When the number of monsters decreases to a certain level, they replicate, one into two, two into four… then… then…
– -Rumble!
An intense shudder came from the ground!
Pan Xiaoxin and Chang Weicai outside both lost their footing and fell to the ground!
Even Bai Youwei, sitting in her wheelchair, was also thrown around. But out of the corner of her eye, she noticed a glimmer of joy on the man’s face! The way he looked towards the door seemed to hold anticipation.
Why?
Why wasn’t he afraid?!
Before she could question him, the man seemed to perceive her scrutiny and his expression changed again to one of pure terror.
The shuddering was getting louder, like a train passing by, the snake seemed to be getting closer! The sound of its body slithering over the ground was clearly audible, getting closer and closer!
“Xiaoxin! Go and cut down all those monsters outside!” Bai Youwei said decisively, “We can’t let the snake grow larger!”
Pan Xiaoxin hastily got up, “Okay, okay…”
Upon hearing Bai Youwei’s voice, Chang Weicai also quickly took up his crutch, poking the monsters one by one!
Dozens of monsters were being hit and cut by Chang Weicai and Pan Xiaoxin, blood splattering everywhere! Just as there were only two or three monsters left, the giant snake appeared outside the house!
“Nevermind those two!” Bai Youwei exclaimed, “Quickly, get inside! Close the door!”
