The two of them acted very quickly and immediately switched to another route.

“Be careful!” Ash reached out and pulled Calvert over. A very thin wire appeared in front of them. If Ash hadn’t grabbed him, it was unclear what would have happened.
Ash’s face darkened slightly. “Why would there be such a thing here?”
“It was placed here on purpose. Look at the soil on both sides. Judging from the extent it was turned over, someone must have come here not long ago. The footprints are messy. There were at least four people.” Calvert glanced at the surrounding
environment.
Ash nodded in agreement. “Someone probably knew that we were coming this way. The map’s GPS tracking transmits our location to the backend in real time. I guess someone has tampered with it.”
“Let’s go back now. Don’t go up any further.”
Safety came first.
Ash had been wondering if the family gathering would end smoothly and safely, but now it seemed that it would not.
“The return route is no longer safe. They will definitely anticipate our next move. Let’s send a distress signal and wait for someone to take us out.” Calvert shook his head slightly and rejected Ash’s suggestion.
Ash thought for a moment. “Okay, but my flare gun… and my watch are in my bag. What about yours?”
For a moment, Calvert fell silent.
“My watch is low on battery, and it was turned off just now. As for the flare gun, you took it at that time, so it’s in your bag.” Calvert had a rare headache.
Ash suddenly chuckled. They were really unlucky. “At that time, I also forgot that everything was in the bag, and you threw it aside without care. What about your bag? What’s in there?”
“My bag only has supplies. There’s nothing we can use to ask for help. Now, we can only return the way we came. Be as careful as possible.”
Calvert glanced at the sky. It was still clear, and probably wouldn’t rain in a short time. If it rained now, the two of them would be trapped.
He took out a rope from his bag, pressed her shoulder, and tied the buttons on their waists together. “Just in case, I’d better secure us to each other.”
“Don’t you feel like you’re walking a dog?” Ash was half a head shorter than him, and now that the rope was with him, she felt that she was no different from a dog.
That thought didn’t cross Calvert’s mind, but now that Ash mentioned it, it did seem that way. His lips obviously curled up “I can’t help it if you think that way”
“Really? Why do I feel like you’re very happy?” Ash faked a simile. “Be honest with me. Are you taking revenge on me?”
Calvert’s long and narrow eyes narrowed slightly. “Revenge? Why? Why did you say that? You will be held legally responsible for wrongly accusing me.”
“Oh, then did you record what I said? If there’s no evidence, how do you sue me? Then can I sue you for slander too!” Ash

was seldom outtalked.
Calvert chuckled. “Is that so? What you’re saying is that if I have a recording, I can sue you?
