Chapter 1577 Trapped In The Cave

'The entrance! They block the exit by destroying the entrance?!'

Tan Zemin and the others could only blame themselves when they saw the entrance was blocked by stones because they could not tell their enemies not to use dirty methods.

"No wonder they suddenly retreated earlier, so they wanted to trap us in this cave." Xiao Tian finally understood the reason why Ming suddenly told his fellow villagers to retreat.

"We have fallen into their trap!" Xing Juzong stated.

They were too focused on the black lotus flowers earlier, so they did not realize Ming's plan and made a big mistake.

'Let's try destroying these stones.'

They exchanged a glance with each other before finally nodding their heads.

However, they instantly stopped doing that because several stones fell from the roof of the cave whenever they tried to destroy it.

"We could get buried alive if we tried to destroy these stones again." Xing Juzong, who was sitting on the ground, uttered.

'There is also no signal in this area, so I can't send a message to my grandpa or Renqing.'

He added in his mind.

At this moment, the people from Sanlow village laughed happily. Of course, they knew what Xiao Tian and the others had done because they tried to stop them earlier.

"Just give up! You won't be able to leave this cave!" Ming laughed after saying that.

"Coward!" Huang Hu roared.

"Haha." Ming and the others did not care about it because Xiao Tian and the others were their enemies.

"Hey, don't you want the black lotus flowers too? How about letting us go? We will share the black lotus flowers with you later?" of course, Xiao Tian would not give them the black lotus flower.

Tan Zemin and the others instantly turned their heads toward Xiao Tian. When they were about to say something to him, he gave them a signal to stop.

Xing Juzong, who understood Xiao Tian's intention, explained in a low voice.

"I'm not interested in your offer. I mean, we can still get the black lotus flower after you die, so I'm not interested in your offer." Ming was not stupid, so he instantly refused Xiao Tian's offer.

"Have you forgotten that it will take us several days to die from starving? I'm sure people from Solaris village would notice it if we did not return today." They were at a disadvantage, so Xiao Tian could not act aggressively.

"They can come to this cave if they want. We will welcome them happily. Haha." Previously, Ming had ordered his brothers to set up simple traps around the cave.

Xiao Tian could guess everything after hearing Ming's words. "Looks like they've set up some traps around the cave."

"What should we do now?" Huang Hu was furious at the people from Sanlow village for using a cowardly method.

At this moment, Xiao Tian remembered that there was a hole above the pool.

'I will check if we can get out of this cave through that hole or not.'

With that idea in mind, Xiao Tian walked toward the pool.

When Xing Juzong saw Xiao Tian, he inquired, "Where are you going, brother Qing?"

"There is a hole above the pool, so I want to check if we can get out of this cave through it or not." Xiao Tian gave an honest answer.

"Ah! I forgot about it." Xing Juzong responded, "I will go with you."

The duo sighed after reaching the pool because the cave roof was so high.

But even so, they did not give up and looked for something that could be used as a tool to get out of the cave.

However, the goddess of luck was not on their side because they did not find anything that could help them get out of the cave.

"It seems like we will sleep in this cave tonight." Xing Juzong spoke abruptly.

Xiao Tian sighed before finally speaking, "Let's go back."

When Tan Zemin saw Xiao Tian and Xing Juzong, he inquired, "How is it?"

Xing Juzong did not answer Tan Zemin's question, but he shook his head, giving him a sign that they could not use the hole to get out of the cave.

"Then we can only hope the villagers will notice this and help us." Tan Zemin was not surprised because he had guessed it before.

Time went by quickly, and without realizing it, it had been two hours since they were trapped in the cave.

The sky had darkened, and the air had grown cold. Xiao Tian and the others were currently sitting by the pool.

They left the entrance because it was too dark in that place.

"Luckily, we can find twigs in this cave, so we can make a bonfire." Tan Zemin immediately made a bonfire after reaching the pool.

Actually, they could still see their surroundings because moonlight entered the cave through a hole in the roof of the cave.

It was a full moon, so the moonlight was enough to illuminate the darkness of the cave. They made a bonfire because it could help them warm their bodies.

"By the way, Mr Qing. Can you tell me the reason why you keep wearing a mask?" Tan Zemin asked curiously.

Xiao Tian turned his head to look at Tan Zemin. "Sorry, I can't tell you about this."

"Is it because something happened to your face?" Huang Hu threw a question at Xiao Tian.

Xing Juzong paid attention to Xiao Tian because he also did not know the reason why Xiao Tian wore a mask.

Xiao Tian shifted his gaze from Tan Zemin to Huang Hu. He did not answer Huang Hu's question and threw a twig at the bonfire.

"You don't need to hide it." Huang Hu spoke and paused for a second before finally, he continued, "We, martial artists, don't care about appearances. We only care about power because good looks are useless in front of power."

"You say that because no woman wants to be your girlfriend, right?" Tan Zemin teased Huang Hu.

"Who says that!" Huang Hu tried to hide his shyness. "I want to be a powerful martial artist, so I don't care about it."

Tan Zemin touched his chin and spoke, "Don't care about women, huh? But didn't you confess to Yushang and was rejected last year?"

"Shu…shut up!" Huang Hu could not hide his shyness when Tan Zemin brought up that topic.

"Haha." Xing Juzong and the others laughed.

Wu Lei's House, Terrace.

Long Jingxian was currently sitting on a wooden chair with Xing Renqing and Qiao Luli.

Xing Hanxian and Wu Lei left to find the Zhiku plant, and they still had not returned home, so they did not know what had happened to Xiao Tian and the others.

"Where are my brother and the others?" Xing Renqing asked curiously. "It's already night, but why are they still not back?"

"They should be back by now since the cave isn't far from here." Qiao Luli suddenly felt uneasy because Xiao Tian and the others still had not returned yet.

Long Jingxian looked in the direction of the cave.

'Xiao Tian, nothing bad happened to you, right?'

Actually, she felt uneasy since earlier because Tan Zemin had previously said they would return before the sky grew dark.

'Xiao Tian….'
