Happy Ending with the Second Male Lead

Chapter 36

Views:

The Ghost Crying Forest is shrouded in fog. Most people cannot find a way out and can only get lost inside. Behind the Ghost Crying Forest is the Ghost Crying Plain. It is said that many years ago, an army of hundreds of thousands of people was stationed here. They came here to find the elixir of immortality under the order of the Holy Emperor, but for some reason, they all died here overnight.

Only a very small number of people escaped that year. According to their description, everyone went crazy and started attacking each other. The entire camp turned into a bloody purgatory. They fought each other for several days and nights. Corpses were piled up and resentment was rampant, causing no grass to grow around.

On the other side of Ghost Crying Plain is a long mountain range that almost blocks the exit of Ghost Crying Plain to other places. It is high into the clouds, desolate and steep. Long ago, this mountain was called the Holy Mountain, and the legendary elixir of life was in it. But since hundreds of thousands of people died here, the Holy Mountain has become a Demon Mountain. Everyone thinks that it is the Holy Mountain that has taken so many lives.

Because these three death places are connected, most people who enter will only end up dead, so anyone who wants to kill someone to silence them, torture the enemy, or dispose of the body likes to come here.

Tang Li didn't understand how scary the place she was in was. Although she was afraid of corpses at first, no matter how scary something was, she would get used to it after seeing it many times. Besides, she had to take good care of a patient and had no time to be afraid at all.

So the reason why she wanted to leave here was not because she was afraid, but because of two very practical reasons, one was because there was no water source, and the other was because there was little food. Without water, it was very inconvenient to wash and brush one's teeth in daily life, and it was really sad to rely on rainwater alone. The only food available was the aardvark, and the sick Xunnu had to force herself to get up and catch it, the conditions were too harsh.

"Xun Nu, how can we leave here?" Tang Li looked at her gray sleeves and discussed with Xun Nu about leaving here.

Xunnu is worthy of being a killer, with a perverted physique. After just a few days, he can already walk, although he can't walk too fast yet.

Hearing Tang Li's question, he thought for a moment and said calmly: "The only way is to go through the Ghost Weeping Forest in the north, but there is a maze in the Ghost Weeping Forest, and it is difficult to get out. I can take you out after my injuries are healed. Now that you have entered the Ghost Weeping Forest, I am afraid that it is very dangerous."

He was forced into the Ghost Weeping Forest when he was seriously injured. Even the dozen or so masters who were chasing him only gave up chasing him after he entered the depths of the Ghost Weeping Forest. Tang Li was simply thrown to the periphery and then lured in by the fox.

"I came in following a red fox. Do you think if we can find that red fox again, it can lead us out?" Tang Li asked.

"I've never heard of red foxes in the Haunted Forest. No living creatures should be able to survive there." Xunnu was very cautious.

Tang Li suggested: "How about I go and look for it and see if I can find the fox?"

Xun Nu disagreed and looked at her seriously and said, "The Ghost Crying Forest is too dangerous. Don't act on your own. Wait for me for another two days. As soon as my injuries get better, I will take you away from here."

The more Tang Li heard him say this, the more she wanted to give it a try. She held his hand and said, "I can't let you live this hard life with me. I want to give you a better life sooner."

Xunnu felt that something seemed to be wrong.

The girl in front of him was a weak woman who didn't know martial arts. But he turned his head and looked at the well-made shed and the daily necessities that were being produced one after another, and felt that there seemed to be nothing wrong with what Tang Li said.

Tang Li was very agile, and that afternoon she used a piece of candy to lure out a red fox from the bushes near the Ghost Crying Forest. She thought it was the one that brought her in.

The little fox seemed to like her very much, taking the candy from her hand and rubbing her palm. Tang Li touched the fox's head and asked it if it could help lead the way out. The little fox blinked smartly and turned around.

Tang Li ran back to discuss the matter with Xun Nu again. Xun Nu still said that if they waited for two more days, he was still worried that if something unexpected happened, he would be seriously injured and would not be able to protect the person. Tang Li thought about it and agreed. She took his hand and put a piece of candy in his palm.

When she was helping in the kitchen, Aunt Sun gave her several pieces of candy, which she kept in her sleeve pocket. Today, she took out one and gave it to the little fox, and she thought of Xun Nu.

"Do you like sweet food?" Tang Li smiled gently, her smile filled with honey.

Xunnu didn't have any obsession with many things, nor did he have any preference for food, but when he saw Tang Li's smile, he nodded involuntarily, and ate the candy under Tang Li's expectant gaze.

"Do you like it? I have more."

Xun Nu stretched out his hand to stop him and said, "I'm older than you." Why was he being treated like a child

Tang Li pursed her lips and smiled, a little embarrassed, "Because I like you very much, so I want to be nice to you."

Xunnu looked at her expressionlessly. He was unable to come back to his senses for a long time. Hearing such a straightforward expression of love, he was completely unable to react.

In fact, he had encountered several situations where he offered himself to women. He was young but had great martial arts skills and was known as the best killer. In addition, he had sharp eyebrows, bright eyes, a tall figure, and a cold and aloof look, so it was easy for him to be favored by women. There were female killers in the organization who were attracted by his looks or abilities and always wanted to get close to him. There were also women who pestered him, but he never cared. Anyway, except when he took a mission, he would hide most of the time and no one could find him.

In the past, no matter how others expressed their feelings, he felt nothing in his heart. But when he heard Tang Li say this, Xun Nu suddenly fell into a state of confusion and tension, not knowing what to say. Even though his heart was in turmoil, his appearance remained calm.

After a long while, he said, "I will definitely protect you well."

Tang Li was more cautious than him, "I will also do my best to take good care of you and prevent you from suffering again."

The girl's girlfriend power overwhelmed the boy god.

Two days later, the two were about to leave. To Xunnu's surprise, the red fox actually appeared. Not only that, it actually led the two out of the Ghost Weeping Forest. They had just walked out of the Ghost Weeping Forest, which was said to be able to trap people to death.

Watching Tang Li feed the last piece of candy to the red fox and wave goodbye to it, Xun Nu felt a little confused for some reason. In his career as a killer, he seemed to be confused a lot these days.

"Okay, we're finally out. Let's find a place to wash up and have a good meal." Tang Li took out a purse from her sleeve and counted the change inside. "This is what I brought with me. It's not much, but I think it should be enough for a hotel stay."

As a killer, Xunnu actually had some silver on him, but he didn't have much, and later he lost it in the fight, so now he is penniless and very poor.

"There seems to be smoke over there, let's go take a look!" Tang Li walked briskly. Thinking that she would be able to take a shower and have a good meal soon, she felt full of energy.

Xunnu looked at the direction she pointed, wanting to say something but stopping himself from speaking. Seeing how happy she was, he shut up and followed her in that direction, holding the long sword in his hand. Tang Li did not forget to take care of him as they walked. After walking for a while, she asked him if he was tired and if he wanted to take a break. She even tried to help him walk. It was the first time in Xunnu's life that he was taken care of so attentively. He felt uncomfortable all over, as if he had been rubbed from head to toe countless times.

Xun Nu: “I…” He wanted to say that it was not necessary, but when he met Tang Li’s gentle eyes, he became speechless.

The young lady had a smile on her face, and she thought in her heart that her little boyfriend was so well-behaved and considerate, so she held his hand and walked forward.

Not long after walking, the two saw an inn on the roadside. It was a two-story building with a stable at the back and a tea shed on the first floor for passers-by to rest. In such a remote place, there was only this inn, and there were quite a few people in the inn. As soon as Tang Li entered the door, she found that everyone was looking at her. She didn't care and walked to the counter to ask the boss if there were any rooms. Xun Nu followed behind her. He could naturally sense the gazes around him. He moved his thumb expressionlessly, and the Xun knife came out of its sheath silently.

After a while, all the guests in the inn turned their eyes away and stopped looking at them. Those who were drinking tea and wine continued to drink. The innkeeper was about to say that there were no rooms, but Xun Nu looked at him coldly. The innkeeper stiffened and said to Tang Li with a twitch of his mouth: "... Of course there are rooms."

Tang Li didn't notice anything unusual, and asked if the store could sell them two sets of clothes so they could change. Xun Nu was still staring at the boss, and the boss could only smile and answer, "Hahaha, of course."

This is a shady shop. Anyone with some experience in the underworld can tell that. After all, it is impossible for a good person to open a shop so close to the Ghost Crying Forest. The shop owner and these "customers" are all in the same group. If you encounter a customer who can be attacked, you will have to leave your life and wealth here. As for Xunnu, the shop owner knew that this was not a "business" they could do as soon as he saw his walking posture and expression.

Although he was obviously injured, the shop owner still did not dare to act rashly. He only hoped that the two would rest quickly and leave, and not interfere with their "business".

Xun Nu had no intention of causing trouble, so he watched the shop owner find two sets of clothes, run some hot water and bring them into the room. "Sir, please help yourself."

Tang Li felt that the owner and the waiter in this store were all very nice. She walked into the room holding a half-worn blue dress and saw Xun Nu following her in.

Tang Li: "Xunnu?"

Xunnu sat with his back to her, holding a knife and closing his eyes, "I won't watch. I'll guard you."

Tang Li was not worried about him seeing her. There was a curtain between them. What could he see? She always liked cleanliness. This time, she had been crawling in the pile of bones for several days and had only simply wiped her face and hands. Now she could finally wash them clean. After washing, she changed into a clean dress and felt relaxed all over. She simply wrapped her hair with a cloth and walked to Xun Nu. "Your injuries are inconvenient. Can I help you clean them?"

Xun Nu looked at her and felt that she trusted him too much. It was like this when he was seriously injured and unable to move, and it was still like this now. Was she so defenseless against anyone

Xunnu felt that he should remind her, so he said, "I am a man."

Who knew that when Tang Li heard this, she suddenly blushed for some reason, and her face became redder and redder, even her ears turned red. Xun Nu had no expression on his face, but when he saw her like this, he became restless for some reason, sweating on his back, and looking away. He didn't mean anything else, but Tang Li's reaction made him feel like he had done something bad.

“… That’s not what I meant.” Xunnu didn’t know what he was explaining.

Tang Li coughed, her face still red, she lowered her eyes and smiled, "Nothing... Do you want my help?"

After a moment of silence, Xunnu said, "Okay."

Tang Li only helped him clean the wound on his back that was difficult to clean, and washed his hair, and then waited outside. Xun Nu was worried about her waiting outside alone, so he came out quickly, his hair still dripping with water.

"Let me help you wipe your hair." Tang Li walked behind Xun Nu and helped him wipe his hair. His hair was not long, only reaching his shoulder blades. Tang Li dried his hair, combed it several times, and finally took out a white hairband to tie his hair up.

"alright."

Xunnu stood up silently with the knife in his hand. He had broad shoulders and long legs, a particularly youthful face, and a great figure. He had the sexiness of an adult man. He was very quiet when he didn't speak, but even if he just stood there quietly, he had a sharp and dangerous aura that could intimidate others.

Tang Li felt shy as if facing her first love. She didn't dare to look at him any longer and quickly turned to comb her hair in front of the mirror and tied it into a braid. After she was done, she found that her hairband was tied on Xun Nu's head and she pinched the end of her hair and stopped there.

Xunnu had been paying attention to her, and seeing this scene, he probably understood, and silently reached behind his head and pulled off the hairband behind his head, and handed it to Tang Li. Then he tore off a small piece of black cloth and tied up his scattered hair. It was not as neat as Tang Li's, but this casualness made him look more sexy.

The young lady was overwhelmed by the boyfriend power of the little male god, her face blushing and her heart beating fast.
