Gu Juexi tilted his head to look at his beautiful wife and pulled her into his embrace. "Do you know why it's so quiet here?"
Ye Yuwei looked around them. "The forest is too dense for big animals to get in, perhaps?"
"Smart girl, what about small animals?" Gu Juexi gestured for her to take a second look. She found that there were almost no living creatures in the perimeter, not even small ones like snakes.
Ye Yuwei pointed upwards and uttered, "There are birds."
Gu Juexi smacked her head and scoffed, "Why don't you just fly out of here?"
Ye Yuwei glared at him.
"There's a swamp straight ahead. The helium in the swamp is usually toxic, so you can't cross it," Gu Juexi explained. If not, he wouldn't have spent so much effort to make the transmitter and send out the signal.
Ye Yuwei blinked timidly and mumbled, "Sorry." For being a burden.
"It's okay, I'm used to it," Gu Juexi said indifferently.
