Love After Marriage - Chapter 126

Chapter 126 Snake Gall
“Do you still want to catch up?” The slightly taller man asked.

“Do you dare to enter?”

“I don’t dare. I heard that there are wild beasts and ghosts inside.” The taller man hurriedly shook his head and told the truth.

“Since that’s the case, do you think we need to go in?”

“Call and tell that side about the situation here!” The man took out his phone and quickly dialed a number. Not long after, a woman’s voice sounded, “How’s it going?”

“Miss, Tang Luoxin just pretended to have a stomachache and escaped. She ran to the mountains.” The man told the people on the other side of the phone everything.

“The mountains that are often haunted?” The woman asked.

“Yes!”

“Alright, you can come back now!” The corner of the woman’s lips curved into a sinister arc. Tang Luo Xin Tian wanted to kill you, but I had no choice!

The woman was in a particularly good mood. She changed into new clothes, put on some light makeup, and prepared to date her friends.

As soon as Tang Luoxin stepped into the forest, she saw that the forest was full of lush branches. The big branches wrapped around each other, as if they were covered with layers of large webs. It was also very similar to the dark green seabed. Not a single ray of sunlight could be transmitted into the forest. Clusters of spider webs hung on the trees.

When Tang Luoxin saw this scene, she was so scared that she didn’t even dare to breathe out. Her face was pale and her entire body couldn’t help but tremble.

Thinking of the two people behind him, Tang Luo Xin raised her head horizontally and continued to walk deeper.

After walking for half an hour, Tang Luoxin saw that there seemed to be no one following behind her. She breathed a sigh of relief. Her entire body weakly fell to the ground. She reached out to wipe the sweat off her forehead and looked around. At this moment, she saw a green snake open its big mouth and walk this way.

Tang Luoxin was so frightened that her face turned pale. She hurriedly got up and ran backwards. However, she had only just taken a few steps when she saw another big snake. She also opened her big mouth and spat out a blood red messenger. It was as if she was a delicious dish and wanted to forcefully swallow her into her stomach.

There were wolves in front and tigers behind. Tang Luoxin didn’t know how to move her feet, as if she had frozen. She stared at the big snake moving towards her.

Her entire body trembled uncontrollably. Her face was already completely devoid of any color, and the corners of her lips were trembling incessantly. She did not know what to do!

The snake was getting closer and closer to her. Just when Tang Luoxin thought that she was going to be bitten to death by the snake, a person with tattered clothes, bare feet, messy hair, and pitch-black body jumped out from nowhere. If she hadn’t seen those pair of divine eyes, Tang Luoxin would have thought that she had encountered a werewolf!

The man held a thick branch in his hand and stabbed at the snake’s seven inches without hesitation.

Immediately after, he stabbed down at another snake, and the snake that had just been eyeing covetously instantly became on the verge of death.

The man then struck the two snakes a few times before stopping the movement of his hand.

Tang Luoxin saw the man’s movements and moved her feet a few steps with difficulty. She swallowed her saliva and couldn’t believe what she saw.

It was as if he had just seen Tang Luo Xin’s existence. He slowly raised his head and walked towards Tang Luo Ou Xin step by step.

Tang Luoxin was so frightened that she crossed her chest with both hands and moved her feet backwards. Her eyes were filled with fear and fear.

The person saw the fear in Tang Luo’s heart and said, “Don’t be afraid, I won’t hurt you!”

Tang Luoxin recognized that it was a man’s voice, but his voice carried a trace of stiffness and sand.

Maybe it’s because you don’t talk much.

Tang Luoxin heard the man’s voice and asked in fear, “Who are you and why are you here?”

“My name is Liu Ye. I’m thirty-five years old this year. I’ve been here for fifteen years.” The man stretched out his hand and smoothed his hair back.

Liu Ye’s voice carried a trace of vicissitudes and despair.

“Why?” Tang Luoxin asked.

“When I was twenty years old, I went to a bar with my friends. That night, there was a murder in the bar, and without saying a word, the police officers caught me and said I was the murderer.” Liu Ye sat on the ground and told Tang Luoxin what happened at that time.

Perhaps it had been too long since he had seen many living people. When Liu Ye saw Tang Luoxin, it was as if he had seen a good friend he hadn’t seen for a long time. Even though the two of them were about the same age, they couldn’t stop him from pouring out his words.

When Tang Luoxin heard Liu Ye’s words, the tears in her eyes uncontrollably flowed down. She was not only a man, she could live for a few fifteen years.

“Haven’t you been out of the forest for more than ten years?” Tang Luo asked hoarsely.

“I went there once, but I almost got caught at that time. I said that the escaped prisoner was guilty of an even greater crime!” Liu Ye revealed a bitter smile and helplessness.

“What are you eating and wearing here?” Tang Luoxin asked again.

“Eat snake gall. As for clothes, it’s this one. It’s wrapped in leaves to keep warm in winter!” As soon as Liu Ye’s words fell, Tang Luo’s eyes turned red as she looked at him. Her heart ached faintly. She was not a person with overflowing sympathy, but Liu Ye’s miserable fate really made her feel distressed.

Most importantly, she had just been saved!

If it wasn’t for Liu Ye, she would have been bitten to death by a snake!

Seeing the heartache on Tang Luoxin’s face, Liu Ye indifferently shrugged his shoulders and said, “Actually, I think this is also very good. People are too sinister. If you are not careful, you will be assassinated!”

Hearing this, Tang Luoxin remembered the scene of her being kidnapped. She remembered that hateful caution and felt a faint pain in her heart. She covered her chest with both hands and her face slowly turned pale.

Seeing that Tang Luoxin’s expression was a little off, Liu Ye hurriedly asked, “Are you alright?”

“I’m not feeling well. I’m not feeling well here. I’m not feeling well at all.” Tang Luoxin covered her chest and said.

Seeing Tang Luoxin’s painful expression, Liu Ye was at a loss. When he saw the snake on the ground, he said, “Wait a moment-”

‘”Bang–” Tang Luo’s heart was in extreme pain, veins on her face appearing, her body lost its balance, and she fell forward.

Liu Ye immediately stopped, turned around and came to Tang Luoxin’s side, helped him up, reached out and touched her forehead, muttered to himself, “No fever!”

Tang Luo’s eyes were blurry, and she could only hear the buzzing sound in her ears, unable to hear what Liu Ye was saying.

Liu Ye didn’t know what to do to help Tang Luoxin. He thought that when he was sick, he would just eat a snake gall.

Liu Ye skillfully drew out the snake skin, took out the snake gall from inside, and came to Tang Luoxin and said, “Eat this, it might be helpful to you!”

Tang Luoxin raised her head with difficulty and looked at the thing in Liu Ye’s hand. Her stomach churned and she immediately vomited.

“This is good for your health!” Liu Ye said to Tang Luoxin.

“Is this… is this edible?” Tang Luoxin asked.

“Of course I can eat it. This can be used as a medicine guide!” Liu Ye said.

Tang Luoxin’s confused eyes looked at the snake gall in Liu Ye’s hand. Her pale face revealed a strange expression. She swallowed her saliva. It was hard to imagine that such dirty things could be eaten!

At that moment, Tang Luo’s stomach rumbled. She looked at Liu Ye embarrassedly and asked, “Is there anything else?”

“There are wild rabbits and pheasants, but eating this is good for your health. Trust me, I won’t lie to you!” Liu Ye looked at Tang Luoxin sincerely and said word by word.

Tang Luoxin’s eyes flashed when she heard Liu Ye’s words. She couldn’t have an accident. Even if Lu Jingnian really betrayed her, she still had to ask clearly, what was the reason?

She only needed one explanation, and as long as Lu Jingnian admitted it, she would definitely turn around and leave him without hesitation.

Tang Luoxin took the snake gall from Liu Ye’s hand and slowly put it into her mouth. It was bitter and astringent, just like life.

Tang Luoxin wanted to vomit, but she resisted.

She slowly ate into her stomach, looked up at Liu Ye and said, “Thank you!”

“There’s no need to thank me. I’ve been in this forest long enough. I’m too lonely to be alone. I’m so excited when I suddenly walk in.” Liu Ye looked into the distance and paused for a moment before asking, “How did you get into this forest? Ordinary people don’t dare to come in!”

“Why?” Tang Luo looked at Liu Ye with puzzled eyes and asked.

“Looks like you really don’t know. Dozens of years ago, there were rumors that there were all sorts of wild beasts in this forest, and they even said that crying would come from this forest every morning.” Liu Ye said.

“Ah–no wonder those two didn’t catch up, so that’s what happened!” Tang Luoxin muttered to herself as she looked into the distance with an absent-minded gaze.

“Is there really a ferocious beast and a cry?” Tang Luoxin raised her head and asked.

“There are ferocious beasts, but I have never heard of them crying. It was precisely because of these rumors that they escaped. Otherwise, they would have been caught by the police and shot to death!” Liu Ye laughed self-deprecatingly.

“I was kidnapped by someone else and escaped here. I don’t even know what kind of place this is!” Tang Luoxin hugged her feet tightly and lowered her head to whisper.

“Where is your home?” Liu Ye asked.

“River City, do you know?” Tang Luoxin looked up at the man and asked.

‘”Jiang Cheng, I’ve heard of it. However, it’s a bit far from Jiang Cheng. It takes at least two hours by car. Moreover, there are no cars in this place. We have to walk thirty miles to see the road. Only there can we get to the car.”

“Well–well–I don’t have a penny on me, and even if I get out of this forest, I don’t have any money for a ride!” Tang Luoxin’s back was already thrown onto the road by the black-clothed man.

“You can type rabbits and pheasants for sale, so you can have money.” Liu Ye helped to come up with an idea.

“No need, if those people see me, they will kidnap me again!” Tang Luo thought of the ruins that she couldn’t see with her fingers, and her entire body couldn’t help but tremble.

Hearing Tang Luoxin’s words, Ye Ye stood up and looked into the distance. “I’ll go catch some wild rabbits and pheasants nearby. Sit here for a while!”

‘”Don’t–” Tang Luoxin’s face was shocked when she heard Liu Ye’s words. She hurriedly stood up and pulled his hand. Thinking of the unkissing relationship between a man and a woman, she immediately let go. Her face flushed slightly and said, “Don’t leave me here alone. I’m a little scared!”

Liu Ye looked at Tang Luoxin without looking sideways and said, “But you’re not feeling well, you can’t look too far!”

“It’s much better now!” Tang Luo smiled.

As long as she didn’t think about that message, as long as she didn’t think about Lu Jingnian’s betrayal, everything would be fine.

“Since that’s the case, then let’s go!” Liu Ye shook his head and said.

Tang Luoxin carefully followed Liu Ye into the depths of the forest.
