Chapter 572: Chapter 514 They Get Lost
The next day, lissa reached the entrance of the hotel as promised.
Detrius went out of the hotel happily. His attire was obviously carefully selected. When he saw lissa, he smiled brightly.
"lissa, you are so punctual! Where are we going today?"
lissa smiled helplessly and put down her hand. She said to Detrius, "I’ll take you to the most famous forest tunnel here. The scenery is beautiful. If you want, you can also take a cable car."
Detrius nodded. Along the way, he seed particularly active and talked about a lot of topics with lissa. But lissa only responded with a few words in accordance with her mood. She was not enthusiastic but not perfunctory.
It was past eleven when they finished taking the cable car to the forest area. Detrius took out two sandwiches from his backpack and handed one to lissa. He asked, "Is there a shortcut here? I want to take a risk! It must be exciting."
lissa looked at him suspiciously. "What are you thinking about? Can’t we take the cable car and leave later?"
Detrius was born to be passionate and adventurous. He always liked to challenge new things. Moreover, when he was traveling with his friends, he tried extre sports like rock climbing, bungee, or jungle adventures, which were not difficult for him at all. When he thought of adventure, his eyes lit up.
Most importantly, if lissa was with him, he would have a chance to protect his beloved girl!
"No, I prefer to take a risk. Besides, it’s rare for us to co out together. lissa, don’t worry. If there’s any danger, I will protect you!"
Detrius turned his head and tried to persuade lissa with an excited face. He also patted his chest to show his manliness.
lissa couldn’t refuse him, so she nodded and agreed. If she didn’t agree, she didn’t know what excuse Detrius would find later. She just had to coax him like a child.
After they finished eating the sandwiches, they did not follow the original plan. Instead, they walked deeper into the forest for a while until they could no longer see the guardrail outside. Only then did Detrius stop. lissa did not force him to take the cable car and leave. Instead, she cooperated with him and played the so-called adventure ga.
The tree branches and leaves scattered on the ground, making a noise as soon as lissa stepped on them. Detrius had been leading the way, and lissa followed him closely. The path was rugged, and both of them were tired. But if they stopped rashly, they would probably roll down the mountain. lissa had no choice but to clench the climbing stick in her hand.
Suddenly, she heard a groan from Detrius in front of her. She subconsciously looked up and saw Detrius squatting with a painful expression. His right hand was covering his ankle.
"What is the matter?" lissa was shocked and quickly ran over to ask. She crouched down to check if Detrius was injured. "Are you injured? Is it serious?"
Detrius raised his head and was a little embarrassed. After hesitating for a long ti, he said, "I was too excited just now. I wanted to go down the mountain quickly, but I accidentally sprained my ankle. It was nothing serious."
lissa fell silent and didn’t know what to say, but she returned to normal after a while. It was not the proper way to go down the mountain. Even if Detrius sprained his ankle, they couldn’t just stay there as it was getting dark soon.
lissa pursed her lips, and her brows furrowed. After a long while, she finally made up her mind and reached out her hand to Detrius. "Try and see if you can stand up. I will help you down the mountain. Otherwise, it will be difficult to walk on the mountain road when it gets dark. It is very likely that we will not be able to get out."
Detrius was stunned. He looked up at lissa for a while and did not expect lissa to say such words. He was a man, and how could he let a girl help him?
Seeing him like this, lissa was even more unhappy and urged him, "Hurry up, I’ll help you up. Otherwise, we’ll have to spend the night here."
Detrius knew that what lissa said was true. There was nothing he could do. He held lissa’s hand and was pulled up by her. lissa tried to put one of Detrius’s arms on her shoulder. Then she gritted her teeth and frowned, slowly helping Detrius down the mountain.
As the saying went, it was easy to go up the mountain, but it was difficult to go down. What was worse, the mountain was steep. After walking for a while, lissa felt that her physical strength had run out. Her legs were weak, and she almost fell several tis and did not dare to take it lightly. However, she was supporting Detrius, so she had to walk slowly.
By the ti they managed to go down the mountain, two hours had passed. The mont lissa stepped on the flat ground, she heaved a sigh of relief. She moved Detrius’ arm away from her shoulder and said, "I looked at the sign just now. We should be able to reach the entrance of the scenic area if we walk towards north for a while. It’s almost dark now. Let’s hurry out. Can you hold on?"
Detrius gritted his teeth. His ankle was swollen, but he still nodded. He regretted it a little. If he hadn’t insisted on adventuring, he wouldn’t have sprained his ankle and implicated lissa. He wasn’t familiar with this scenic area at all, and he had to walk so far.
He looked at lissa, observed her expression, and finally apologized, "lissa, I’m sorry. If it weren’t for , you wouldn’t have been trapped here. I don’t know I..."
"It’s fine." lissa breathed gently. Since things were going on like this, she did not want to bla Detrius. After all, he was an impulsive man. "Let’s hurry out. If you can’t hold on, tell . We can rest for a while."
Unfortunately, dreams were wonderful, but the reality was cruel.
They walked slowly, and Detrius had to rest from ti to ti. It was dark, and they had yet to leave.
Detrius looked around and said with a troubled expression, "It’s been hard on you. You have to be with
here..."
lissa’s physical strength gradually ran out. She panted and walked slower and slower. "Forget it. It’s useless to say this now. It has not been completely dark yet. Wait for
to see where this is."
lissa looked around, only to see trees. There was not even a shadow of people. Without a doubt, they were lost.
Suddenly, it was completely dark. When lissa looked up, she saw a black cloud and even heard the faint sounds of thunder.
It was a sign that it was going to rain. lissa beca anxious. They could no longer find a way out. Moreover, they did not bring an umbrella when they ca out today.
"Is it going to rain?"
