Chapter 567: Chapter 567: Not A One-Man Show
 

Su Man was feeling some regret.

When she had set out, she was filled with fervor, driven by zealousness, believing herself to be brave, strong, fearless!

But now, she was feeling her own weakness and helplessness more acutely!

Would she have been able to accurately draw out the map if she hadn’t encountered Lu Yuwen? Could she have pieced together the scattered plots of land? She feared she would have been confused by those misleading arrows and turned into a puppet before she even realised.

Why was she always like this?

Why couldn’t she be as calm as Lu Yuwen and think things through clearly?

A shadow fell over her as Lu Yuwen stepped in front of her.

“Su Man, if I hadn’t met you, I wouldn’t have been able to get out of the labyrinth either,” said Lu Yuwen.

He wanted to pat her shoulder in comfort, but realized that his hands were tied, so he put them back down.

Su Man mustered up some courage and forced a smile, “Hmm, don’t worry, I’m fine!”

It was just a moment of short-lived dejection.

“Be it the game, or the labyrinth, it’s never a one-man job,” Yuwen said again.

Su Man nodded in agreement.

There was a small boat appearing on the lake in the distance. As it got closer, they saw Zhang Ke on the boat, waving at them.

Zhang Ke had indeed found a boat—

It was a pedal boat, a common sight in water parks, with four seats. The main propulsion came from pedaling, stirring the blades, pushing water away. It also had a couple of oars.

When Zhang Ke docked the pedal boat, Lu Yuwen said, “Although you found a boat, sliding into the center of the lake and diving into an unpredictable depth is still too risky…”

“Can’t we just tie a rope?” Zhang Ke interrupted impatiently, “There’s a rope on the other side of the lake. Get onboard, I’ll take you there.”

Lu Yuwen stood still, his eyes scrutinizing the pedal boat, “Are you sure the rope is long enough for us to dive to the bottom…”

“Stop nagging!” Zhang Ke frowned, “If it’s not long enough, just tie several ropes together, hurry up and get on board!”

Su Man looked silently at Lu Yuwen.

As he had predicted, after Zhang Ke proposed the plan, he took the initiative to start resolving problems in the implementation process.

Zhang Ke thought he had taken control, yet he was oblivious to the fact that everything was a result orchestrated by Lu Yuwen.

The three of them got on the boat, went to the other side to fetch some hemp ropes, and then arrived at the center of the submerged land.

Through the surface of the water, the forest beneath was barely visible. The boat occasionally scraped against the treetops. The branches rubbing against the bottom of the boat produced a creaking sound.

Su Man was the first to dive in.

As she went under, Zhang Ke was continuously watching the surface of the water with conflicting emotions. He wanted to dive in for himself yet he was worried about being tricked.

He had played the game with Lu Yuwen before. He knew that he was not as innocent as he seemed, but was rather cunning! Otherwise, in the past, both Brother Xiao and Yang Zi wouldn’t have been so cautious of Lu Yuwen.

This time Su Man spent two minutes underwater.

For an average person, that was quite a long time.

Zhang Ke frowned at her, “Why did it take so long?”

“What is the situation under the water? Did you see the arrows?” Lu Yuwen asked.

Su Man took a deep breath, looked at both of them, and said, “There is good news and bad news—

The good news is that many of the arrows are on the tree trunks, meaning we don’t need to dive to the bottom. We can find the arrows by diving just over three meters.”

The bad news is… branches can entangle the rope; I got stuck when I was coming up and it took me a few seconds to free myself.”

Under the water, every second of delay could be fatal.

Su Man looked at Zhang Ke and seriously suggested, “When you dive later, it’s better not to tie a rope. Having a rope might actually be more dangerous.”
