Chapter 011: Lust makes one lose their mind

Chen Ning ignored the cursing Dong Chunhua and slammed the gate.

She thought about going into the mountains to look for someone and asking for help, but she was afraid that if it was really like what was recorded in the book, it would be troublesome if other people in the village went in and saw the killer or something.

It was also her fault for being careless, because in the original novel, although my king went through hardships, he successfully made a comeback, so she felt that there was no danger.

The future golden thigh should really be locked in the house!

Whether something happens or he is picked up by some female supporting character, it is a huge loss!

Shen Ning hurried home and went to Hunter Zhao's house to borrow the bow and arrow. She also took a dagger for self-defense and went straight out of the village into the mountains.

It was already afternoon and fog began to rise in the mountains. The light mist made the forest look eerie and scary. Fortunately, Shen Ning herself was a dead ghost and did not feel too scared.

There were traces of horse trampling on the path. As she followed the traces and searched inside, she broke off a thick branch to clear and cover up the traces.

Not long after, she saw blood on a leaf and immediately knew it was nearby.

"Anan." Shen Ning tried to call out.

It was originally just a test, but unexpectedly, a panicked and helpless voice came from a distance: "Sister-in-law..."

Shen Ning breathed a sigh of relief and walked quickly towards the direction where the sound came from.

After passing through a grove of bushes, Xiao Nanchen was seen huddled under a slanted boulder. On the other side of the boulder was a valley.

If he missed a step, he would fall.

Shen Ningmei's heart skipped a beat, and she didn't get any closer, for fear that she would be bumped into by a fool. If she fell, wouldn't she die unjustly?

"Anan, come over to my side and be careful."

The little fool obviously wanted to stand up, but as soon as he moved, he groaned and fell back down, looking pitiful: "It hurts."

Only then did Shen Ning see that he was covered in blood, and there was a bloody wound on his arm, which was obviously caused by a sharp weapon.

With a resigned sigh, she walked over and carefully squatted in front of him: "Come, I'll carry you."

It was getting dark, and even if she was a dead ghost, she would never want to spend the night in the mountains.

The little fool seemed to be terrified and quickly lay on her back. Shen Ning gritted her teeth and exerted force... and then was pressed down.

She lay on the ground with her face in the mud, her face numb.

Yesterday I was praising my king for his strong body, but today I wish he could turn into a paper man.

The little fool lay on top of her, very puzzled: "Sister-in-law, why don't you get up?"

Shen Ning: ...

I can't get up because I don't like to get up!

You suppress me like a mountain, but I can stand up!

The second time, Shen Ning was finally prepared. She prepared a thick crutch. With the help of the crutch, she finally managed to carry the big fool on her back and walked out of the mountain step by step.

The sky was getting darker and darker, and the big fool was a little nervous.

"Sister-in-law, I'm scared."

Shen Ning said with difficulty: "If you are afraid, just run a few steps."

"My legs hurt."

Shen Ning: "My legs hurt now..."

"Sister-in-law, look at the darkness over there, is there a ghost?"

Shen Ning: "Do you know what a ghost is?"

The big fool nodded seriously: "I know, I'm not stupid, sister-in-law, I will be obedient, please don't give me to the ghost."

Shen Ning: ...

Unfortunately, I am a dead ghost.

She was so tired that she was out of breath, but when she thought about how she couldn't walk before, but now she could not only walk but also carry someone on her back, she felt better.

That's why, when she heard the big fool begging her pitifully not to give him to the ghost, Shen Ning patiently coaxed him: "Don't worry, I won't."

The big fool was a little skeptical: "Can you still carry me? If you can't carry me, will you just throw me to the ghost behind you?"

Chen Ning: Very good, this time the ghost company has a location.

Even if she was as carefree as she could be, she began to feel a little creepy. In order to stop this fool from causing more trouble, she could only comfort him and reassure him.

"Don't worry, I can carry you..."

When Xiao Nanchen regained consciousness, he found himself lying on someone's back, which was very thin and uncomfortable.

The person carrying him was panting and clearly struggling, but he patiently comforted him as they walked, "If I really can't carry you anymore, I'll drag you back. If I can't even drag you, I'll stay here with you. I won't leave you behind... I won't leave you here."

Don't talk about people during the day and don't talk about ghosts at night. Well, she is a little scared now.

The big fool suddenly stopped talking, and Shen Ning chuckled, "Do you believe it now?"

Considering that in the original novel, Emperor Jingyong later helped Li Yushi to snatch Pei Yuanzhou, it can be seen that Xiao Nanchen was able to remember what happened when he was stupid after he recovered, otherwise he would not support Li Yushi, his savior.

So even when Shen Ning was exhausted and out of breath, she did not forget to contribute to her future glory and wealth.

"No matter what, I will take care of you and protect you... Anan, you must remember that we are already a family who depend on each other for survival!"

You must remember, you must remember!

Behind him, Xiao Nanchen frowned.

This woman had told him to get lost at first, but now she was so attentive, even though she was so exhausted she still wanted to carry him on her back. All this... started to change after she did something inappropriate to him that night while he was unconscious!

He is really obsessed with lust!

Xiao Nanchen didn't want to pay attention to this frivolous widow who was desperately trying to seduce a fool, but he also didn't want to be noticed as being unusual, so he just perfunctorily nodded.

The mountain road was rugged and overgrown with vegetation. With a person on his back, Shen Ning's steps became heavier and slower.

When Xiao Nanchen killed the second person, he was slow to move for a moment due to his leg injury and was stabbed in the arm. Afterwards, in order to dispose of the bodies of the man and the horse while he was still conscious, he dragged his injured leg and pushed them into the valley one by one.

In addition to the sudden outburst during the previous ambush, his injured legs and arms are now bleeding profusely, and his head is buzzing and stabbing. It should be that the toxin from the reckless movement of true qi has started to act up again.

The person carrying him was obviously extremely tired. Several times, Xiao Nanchen thought she would throw him down and drag him away, just as she said.

But every time, she just stopped to rest for a while and then continued forward.

As the night deepened, the sharp and cold cooing of night owls could be heard in the forest.

Xiao Nanchen clearly felt that the person carrying him was frightened by the gloomy voice and his body stiffened.

Then, a wolf howled behind him...

The trees rustled in the night and the howling of wolves was getting closer and closer. Xiao Nanchen could only guess that the blood of the two people and two horses he pushed into the valley must have attracted the wolves.

They hadn't gone far yet and were very close to the wolves.

Chen Ning obviously realized it, and her already extremely slow steps quickened again as she wanted to leave, but at this moment, the rocks under her feet loosened and she slipped and stumbled. She was then pressed down by the person on her back, and finally she could not hold on and fell down.

Xiao Nanchen subconsciously moved his body slightly to avoid his injured leg, but then he found that at the moment of falling, the person under him did not let go and held him tightly, and he pressed directly on her.

His injured arms and legs were not scratched, but the woman carrying him fell sideways to the ground in order to protect him, and half of her face was scratched in an instant. For a moment, her head was bleeding and she looked horrible.

The subconscious behavior of protecting the injured in the previous life caused Shen Ning to fall miserably. Her face was burning with pain, and the wolf howling behind her seemed to be laughing, and the sound was terrifying.

Shen Ning shivered a little.

She wasn't afraid of ghosts, but she was particularly afraid of wolves, especially a pack of wolves.

Xiao Nanchen saw Shen Ning's fear, and when he saw her struggling to stand up and pick up the stick that had fallen beside her, Xiao Nanchen closed his eyes to rest, and at the same time gave her a chance to leave on her own.

This woman would do such a thing only because she was obsessed with lust, but after all, her life was at stake, so she would not be really possessed by evil spirits.

Sure enough, the footsteps faded away...

Xiao Nanchen was not surprised. After all, they had only known each other for a few days, and he was just her late husband's "younger brother", a mentally retarded fool in everyone's eyes.

Even if this frivolous widow coveted his body, at a critical moment of life and death, no one would risk their own life to save a burden like him.

His consciousness began to blur, and suddenly he remembered the Beishan Hunting Ground many years ago. In the chaos of the assassin's attack, he and his royal brother fell together... As always, his mother chose to save his royal brother.

He fell off a cliff and everyone thought he was doomed. However, no one knew how the young boy struggled to survive in the mountains where he could not tell the direction, dragging his broken leg.

He picked wild fruits and drank mountain spring water, and even ate snakes and insects when he was extremely hungry... He was very scared, but he wanted to survive more.

On the first day, he told himself that the Royal Guards would come soon, but they didn't.

On the second and third day, he began to pray to God, asking God to save him... Later, he even stopped praying to God.

He walked step by step, not knowing how long he had been walking or where he was going. Finally, he walked out of the mountains and met a woodcutter.

At that time, thirteen days had passed since the assassination.

The Royal Guards had given up searching the mountain after ten days, but no one expected that he would survive.

Later, his memory of those days in the mountains was always vague. The only thing he could remember was the boundless loneliness and the fear and despair of approaching death.

When he was struggling to survive alone in the wild mountains and dense forests with his broken leg, his mother should have been accompanying and comforting her brother as usual.

From then on, he felt that one day, he would die alone...

The sound of footsteps interrupted Xiao Nanchen's confused thoughts. He subconsciously opened his eyes and saw Shen Ning holding two thick wooden sticks with blood on his face.

"Here, take it!"

Shen Ning handed the wooden stick to Xiao Nanchen, took the bow and arrow slung at his side, and then sat directly behind him with his back to back.

"Let's stand back to back and rest for a while. If we're unlucky enough to get caught up by the wolves, we'll kill them!"

Shen Ning actually hesitated just now. After all, she had finally survived and she really didn't want to feed the wolves.

After all, wealth and glory are still far away, but the wolves are right in front of her... But just after she took a step, looking at the dark jungle, she suddenly thought, at this time, wouldn't it be more reliable to follow the future emperor?

In the original book, he was able to survive until the next day alone, which shows that he has extraordinary luck. It is safer to stay with him.

Xiao Nanchen was holding a wooden stick as thick as his arm, and his head was beginning to feel dizzy.

As his consciousness gradually blurred, he couldn't help but think: Knowing that there were wolves, she still came back to protect a fool who had no feelings?

This woman is really willing to go all out for that little bit of lust...

Perhaps because the two men and two horses were enough to feed the wolves, the wolves did not chase them. After resting for a while, Shen Ning got up again and said, "Let's go."

Xiao Nanchen's consciousness began to fade, and he knew that he was going to become stupid and confused again. In the last moment of consciousness, the woman with blood on her face slung the bow and arrow to her side, half-knelt in front of him and spoke to him softly.

"Let's go, Anan, let's go home..."
