Trapped

*Bang!*

The loud sound scared Li Ran and she let out a shriek. 

She did not expect them to be trapped either!

Li Ran began to struggle. She pulled the net as hard as possible in hopes of breaking free.

However, her efforts were futile.

Yang Shao also noticed that pulling the net was pointless.

Instead, he squatted down and touched the ground.

"The loud noise just now was caused by this stone. The net will only be lifted if we pick this stone up."

Li Ran tried to pick up the stone with all her might but it would not budge.

She turned to Yang Shao and said, "Can you pick it up?"

"The stone isn't big. Logically speaking, I should be able to but..."

Yang Shao tried but he could not do it either. He exerted all his force and his breathing became heavier.

Li Ran became more and more anxious, but there was nothing they could do.

After trying for some time, Yang Shao gave up.
