Chapter 244: The Wall-climbing Yun Xiangxiang

“Time for the strategist in you to shine,” Shen Yitang gave all of them two thumbs up . “Draw the lots now . You guys will take turns catching the prisoners of war . ”

There were three numbers within the lots . Yun Xiangxiang got number three . Lu Jin and He Xingzhou got to number one, while Hou Cang and Sun Qiluo got number two .

In other words, Lu Jin and He Xingzhou were “It” in this round . The rest of them would be prey .

“You have ten minutes to return to your territory,” Shen Yitang told Yun Xiangxiang, Sun Qiluo, and Hou Cang .

Sun Qiluo and Hou Cang immediately ran away, while Yun Xiangxiang scanned through the map before leaving .

She wanted to stay as far away as she could from Lu Jin and He Xingzhou, “I think I know what their comeback plan is . ”

As she ran to her territory, Yun Xiangxiang said to the camera . “It’s a waste of time if they only focuse on me . But they will lose if they only focus on Sister Qiluo’s team . Xingzhou and Brother Jin’s advantage is young and strong . One of them will come for me, while the other will go for Sister Qiluo’s team .

“No matter who’s the hunter, my escape will be successful if I manage to dodge them for half an hour . ” Every team had thirty minutes to capture the prisoners .

The size of her territory might have given her an advantage, but catching four people by herself was still exhausting work . They wouldn’t just stand there and let her catch them .

He Xingzhou and Lu Jin might be at a disadvantage when it came to land, but their strength was their trump card .

Hou Cang and Sun Qiluo wouldn’t be easy prey too . They had three pieces of land, after all .

It was hard to tell who would be the winner at this point .

Ten minutes wasn’t enough for Yun Xiangxiang to travel the distance she wanted . When the announcer told them the game had started, she sped up . That tired out the cameraman who was following her .

She slowed down as she was arriving at the place she wanted . She chose a road that forked out into three branches . As they couldn’t hide in the civilians’ houses, this was the best spot for her .

He Xingzhou showed up after five minutes . He said lovingly, “My dear, do please take my hand and follow me home . ”

“My liege, our love now only exists within the annals of history . Please, forget about me, don’t hurt yourself . Don’t come for me ever again,” Yun Xiangxiang buried her face in her hand, looking frustrated .

“I refuse . Without you, my love, life loses all meaning,” He Xingzhou made his love confession as he closed in .

“Sun Qiluo is captured . Sun Qiluo is captured…,” the announcer announced .

Yun Xiangxiang was surprised . Lu Jin’s strong . Sun Qiluo was caught and dragged back in such a short time, and Hou Cang didn’t manage to save her .

She was hoping the duo could stall Lu Jin for a while longer . If Hou Cang was also captured, she would be caught in a pincer attack . That would be bad for her .

He Xingzhou dashed forward during the announcement . Yun Xiangxiang was on high alert and ran away quickly when that happened .

Yun Xiangxiang suddenly skidded to a halt as she ran . He Xingzhou disappeared . They couldn’t enter any house, and nothing was blocking her sight here . He Xingzhou couldn’t have used another path to block her . She was only left with one possibility .

She wasn’t He Xingzhou’s target . He was just using her to make Hou Cang think that way .

If Lu Jin managed to ambush one of them, He Xingzhou would use the path from her territory to do a pincer attack against Hou Cang .

The pair would take down Hou Cang before coming after her .

“I expected nothing less from King Wen of Chu,” Yun Xiangxiang needed to come up with something to save herself . Lu Jin was too smart .

After giving it some thought, she suddenly asked the program team, “The rule only says I can’t enter any civilian’s house, right?”

“That is correct,” the program team didn’t know what the mischievous Yun Xiangxiang had in mind, but they still answered her anyway .

They got their answer very soon . It was shocking . Yun Xiangxiang jumped up the wall and climbed up the roof .

The buildings in the old town were of ancient style . Yun Xiangxiang put her training to use here . She just used some strength and climbed up the building easily .

But that troubled the cameraman . He had to keep it facing toward her . When he saw Yun Xiangxiang moving around, he had to remind her, “Safety first . ”

“Okay, don’t worry,” Yun Xiangxiang scaled the wall carefully .

The dog in the courtyard started barking . When the house’s owner came out, he saw her scaling his wall .

Awkwardness filled the air . Yun Xiangxiang said sheepishly, “We’re just…recording a show . I’ll have to use your roof for a while . ”

The owner calmed his dog down . He asked, “Do you need a ladder?”

“Oh, not really . But thank you,” Yun Xiangxiang refused the offer . She started moving up . The roof tiles were slippery, but at least they were not wet .

When she got to a place where there was no leverage anyone could use to climb up, she sat on the roof .

“How much time is left?” Yun Xiangxiang asked the program team .

“Eight minutes . ”

“Hou Cang is captured . Hou Cang is captured,” the announcer announced again .

“They will be here in three minutes, tops,” Yun Xiangxiang calculated .

The cameraman couldn’t stand this angle anymore . He went further back to record .

Around three or four minutes later, He Xingzhou and Lu Jin rushed here from two paths . Neither of them expected her to climb up any walls!

“My dear, women aren’t supposed to climb any walls . Do please come down and return home with me,” He Xingzhou extended his hand to Yun Xiangxiang .

“The view is great up here . It’s cool, and I can see everything,” Yun Xiangxiang arched her eyebrow .

She had a smug look on her face . Lu Jin and Xingzhou could go up there to try and catch her, but it would be too dangerous . And they couldn’t capture her either .

The pair looked at Yun Xiangxiang helplessly from below .

“How about it, my dear King Wen? Chess not checkers . ” Yun Xiangxiang shook her legs . Her pink-colored hem radiated light . “Do you yield?”

“I yield,” Lu Jin surrendered .

“Give me a ladder, I want to go up there to look at the view too,” He Xingzhou requested .

“The program team does not provide any help,” he was mercilessly rejected .

“How did she get up there then?” He Xingzhou pointed at Yun Xiangxiang .

“She jumped up there,” the program team answered .

He Xingzhou gave them a look that said: Do you think I am stupid? “Show me how you can jump up there . ”

“I jumped up here myself . There are a few short chairs there . You can use them as leverage,” Yun Xiangxiang pointed at the place she jumped up .

He Xingzhou went there . When he saw how high up there it was, he came back quietly .

Lu Jin, however, used the chairs as leverage and jumped up the roof . The dog barked again . The owner was right there as he was worried about Yun Xiangxiang . He immediately calmed his dog .

Yun Xiangxiang didn’t run when she saw Lu Jin closing in . She just sat there .

“Aren’t you worried I might capture you?” Lu Jin sat down beside Yun Xiangxiang .

“Not that you have enough time to bring me back anyway,” Yun Xiangxiang knew she had won from the moment they saw her .

Hou Cang was a great assist . He bought her enough time . If Yun Xiangxiang didn’t climb up the roof, they might have stood a chance .
