Transmigration: The Cannon Fodder Suddenly Made a Comeback! novel Chapter 136

Chapter 136: Chapter 136: Jiang Li Can Actually Draw Talismans?!

A few people retraced their steps back to the place they had just been.

They continued straight up the mountain path until the trees became denser and the road at their feet grew more rugged.

Aunt Ying grew increasingly uneasy.

“Why would Lai Fu run up the mountain? It’s usually so well-behaved.”

[Damn, Chixia Village actually has places like this, the desolate forest looks so scary.]

[Help, isn’t this supposed to be a transformation show? How did it turn into extreme adventuring?]

...

[Jiang Li is still leading the way in front. She really isn’t scared.]

[Doesn’t any wilderness survival show want to recruit Sister Li? I want to see her take down a savage with an axe.]

[What are you talking about upstairs? Our Lili is beautiful and intelligent, she couldn’t possibly be that kind of person.]

Hearing this, Zhao Lang steadied Aunt Ying, “Don’t worry, nothing’s wrong. People from the village often come and go in this forest. Lai Fu probably just got bored at home and ran this far.”

Zhao Lang’s words significantly comforted Aunt Ying, and she nodded before continuing to follow behind Jiang Li.

After walking further inside, Jiang Li suddenly stopped.

“It should be here, no mistake.”

Aunt Ying hastened her calls.

“Lai Fu, Lai Fu, where have you gone? Come to mommy.”

However, no matter how much she called, the forest remained silent, without the slightest stir.

Even the people in the live broadcast noticed something amiss.

[Did Lai Fu encounter some danger? Dogs are extremely sensitive, it’s impossible for these people to have been searching for so long without any sign.]

[Is Jiang Li playing tricks again? Maybe Lai Fu isn’t even here, and she’s just leading people to this place to draw in viewers!]

[How did it turn into a suspense drama? Lai Fu, please be okay. Otherwise, this dog lover will truly break down in tears.]

Aunt Ying continued calling in the same spot, and the camera operator started helping her search as well.

Meanwhile, Jiang Li left the path and walked towards the deeper part of the forest.

Zhao Lang took note of her actions and quietly followed her.

“What’s wrong?” he whispered.

“Lai Fu is likely more unlucky than lucky,” Jiang Li said, “I’ve estimated that its life thread has almost run out.”

Zhao Lang’s expression turned serious as well.

“I had guessed as much.”

Jiang Li was surprised, “Then why did you say that to Aunt Ying just now?”

“Before the truth is discovered, even a second of false hope is enough,” Zhao Lang said, looking ahead, “I didn’t want to see Aunt Ying grieve too soon.”

Jiang Li squinted her eyes.

The man actually had a heart.

Zhao Lang passed by her and walked a few steps ahead, “There are many traps laid by the hunters from the village in this forest. I was injured by these things a month ago. I fear Lai Fu has suffered the same fate. I roughly know where they are; come with me.”

As expected, they hadn’t taken many steps before they found Lai Fu trapped and struggling against a snare.

It lay on the ground breathing its last, one leg tightly clamped in a bear trap, and blood from the wound had stained a large area of the fallen leaves red.

It was evident that it was in extreme pain and weakness; even when Jiang Li and the others approached, it gave no reaction at all.

Jiang Li furrowed her brows.

“It’s beyond saving.”

Having lost so much blood, with its leg bitten off by the sharp teeth of the trap, even if they took it to the hospital now, there was no cure.

“Indeed,” said Zhao Lang as he squatted down and started to stroke Lai Fu’s body.

Lai Fu finally showed a reaction, lifting its head with difficulty to look at him and whimpered lowly twice.

Zhao Lang’s hand paused.

He understood very well what that look meant.

So, he let out a sigh.
