Entertainment: I really don’t want to be a thief!

Chapter 690 Everything will be fine

She stroked Wang Xinxin's hair gently, as if she was stroking her own child.

"Child, go to sleep, go to sleep, everything will be fine..."

Aunt Lin's voice was very soft, very soft, as if she was afraid of disturbing Wang Xinxin's sweet dream.

The rain is still falling.

The big raindrops hit the muddy mountain road hard, splashing small water droplets.

The mountain wind was damp and cold, whistling through the woods, making a series of creepy sounds.

Meng Ming wrapped his thin coat tightly around himself, huddled together, and walked forward with difficulty.

He didn't dare to take the main road and could only move forward in the dark along the rugged mountain path.

"Damn Lin Ke, wait until I get out, just wait and see how I'm going to deal with you!" Meng Ming cursed with gritted teeth, with resentment flashing in his eyes.

These days, he has been trapped in the village and can't go anywhere.

His cell phone was also smashed by that damn guy Lin Ke, and he couldn't contact anyone outside. He was like a wild beast trapped in a cage, and could only watch the cooked duck fly away.

"No, I can't wait any longer!" Meng Ming stopped suddenly, a fierce look flashed in his eyes.

He must leave this damn place as soon as possible, and then find someone to teach Lin Ke a lesson and let him know the consequences of offending him!
Thinking of this, Meng Ming no longer hesitated, quickened his pace, and walked in the direction of his memory.

He remembered that there was a path behind the village that led to the town.

Although no one has walked that road for a long time, it is better than staying in this damn place!

The rain was getting heavier and heavier, and the mountain road became more muddy and difficult to walk on.

Meng Ming walked with one foot deep and one foot shallow. His clothes had long been soaked by the rain and were freezing cold.

But he couldn't care about so many things anymore. He only had one thought in mind now, which was to leave here as soon as possible!

After walking for an unknown amount of time, Meng Ming finally saw the path in his memory.

He suddenly perked up and quickened his pace.

However, when he reached the end of the path, he suddenly stopped and an expression of disbelief appeared on his face.

What was supposed to appear before my eyes was a road leading to the town, but now, it has become an ocean!
The surging river roared and rolled, like a monster that was ready to devour its prey, emitting a terrifying aura.

"This...how is this possible?!" Meng Ming widened his eyes and muttered to himself.

He remembered that this river was usually very calm and the current was not fast. How could it suddenly become like this?!

"It must be because of the continuous rain these days!" Meng Ming quickly figured out the reason.

He slapped his head in annoyance, his heart filled with regret.

If he had known this would happen, he should have left earlier!
Now, the only way out is blocked. Is he really going to be trapped to death in this damn place? !
Do not!
He absolutely couldn't just accept his fate like this!

Meng Ming clenched his teeth, his eyes gleaming with determination.

He just didn't believe that he wouldn't be able to find a way out!

Meng Ming walked along the river bank and began to look for a place to cross the river.

However, what made him despair was that the river was wider than he had imagined, and the current was fast, so he could not find a place to cross the river!
"Am I really going to be trapped and die here?!" Meng Ming's heart was filled with despair.

Just then, he suddenly saw a big tree not far away, with its trunk spanning the river, forming a simple single-plank bridge.

"Hahaha, there is always a way out!" Meng Ming was immediately overjoyed and ran towards the big tree. However, before he could be happy for too long, the smile on his face froze.

Because he found that the trunk of the big tree had been rotten by the rain and could not bear the weight of an adult at all!
"Damn it!" Meng Ming couldn't help but curse.

Is he really going to be trapped and die here? !
Just when Meng Ming was in despair, he suddenly heard a "rustling" sound in his ears.

He quickly turned his head and saw that the water level of the river was still rising!

"Not good!" Meng Ming suddenly felt a strong sense of uneasiness in his heart.

He didn't dare to hesitate any longer and turned around and ran.

However, it's too late.

The surging river water swallowed him up in an instant!
"Help!" Meng Ming struggled desperately in the water and shouted.

However, his voice was soon drowned out by the deafening sound of the river.

No one heard his cries for help, and no one was able to save him.

As soon as the day began to dawn, Meng's mother felt uneasy.

Last night's heavy rain continued until the second half of the night. The mountain was very humid and she always felt that something was going to happen.

"I don't know where Meng Ming went last night, and he hasn't come back yet." While muttering, Meng's mother walked to the door of Meng Ming's room, ready to wake him up.

But when the door was opened, the room was empty and the bedding was neatly folded, obviously no one had slept there all night.

Meng Mu's heart skipped a beat and an ominous premonition came to her mind.

"This child, could it be..." She didn't dare to think further and hurriedly ran to the village to ask around for Meng Ming's whereabouts.

But after asking around, the villagers all said that they had not seen Meng Ming.

The more Meng's mother thought about it, the more frightened she became. Lin Ke's fierce look last night kept appearing in her mind. With trembling hands, she stumbled towards Uncle Lin's house.

"Mr. Lin, please, please help me find my Meng Ming! He hasn't come back since last night, I'm afraid something happened to him!" As soon as Meng's mother saw Lin Ke, she fell to her knees, tears streaming down her face.

Lin Ke frowned slightly. He did say some harsh words last night, but he wouldn't do anything to Meng Ming.

"Auntie Meng, please get up and talk first. Meng Ming didn't come here last night, and we don't know where he went." Lin Ke said as he helped Aunt Meng up.

"Gone? Where could he go?" Meng's mother was at a loss, her face pale.

"Don't worry, think about it slowly. Is it possible that Meng Ming could have gone somewhere?" Wang Xinxin also walked forward and comforted him softly.

Meng's mother tried hard to calm herself down, but her mind was blank and she could only shake her head helplessly.

Meng's mother stumbled out of the Lin family courtyard, her eyes blurred by turbid tears.

She wandered aimlessly in the village, asking everyone she met, but the answers she got disappointed her every time.

"Meng Ming? I didn't see him. Who knows where that kid has gone now!"

"Come to inquire so early in the morning. Meng Ming is not a rich man. Who would keep an eye on him?"

"Sister-in-law Meng, you should go back first. Maybe Meng Ming will come back by himself later."

Although these villagers did not have any deep hatred with the Meng family, everyone saw what Meng Ming did in the village.
