Wei Yiling recognized this boy, she'd seen him earlier today amongst the caravan, but despite this, she remained cautious. She couldn't tell if he was a friend or a foe, or whether he was in cahoots with the group of men in black.
The sound of footsteps was constantly drawing nearer and nearer.
Wei Yiling didn't know where to go, and ultimately, she ran towards Ye Chen.
"If you don't want to be caught, then hurry over here," Ye Chen had dug a pit deep enough to conceal someone. "Quickly, lie down."
"What are you trying to do?"
Ye Chen didn't offer much of an explanation. He yelled, "Stop dawdling!" He'd already pulled her over, shoved her straight into the pit, and without considering her feelings, he shoveled sand from both sides and directly poured it onto Wei Yiling, then smoothed it out.
"I'm covered in sand."
"Want to live? If you do, then bear with it."
The footsteps were getting closer and closer.
Only then did the girl lying in the pit stop struggling.
