Chapter 196: Answer (1)

“I’m not afraid.” Li Man hesitatingly shrank her hands down, but she didn’t struggle.

Li Mo smiled, “there’s nothing to be afraid of. All of the wild beasts are in the depths of the mountain, they usually don’t come out.” Saying so, he used the basket to open the road ahead. While his hand held hers, he walked slowly, turning his head from time to time to see if there’s any branches that could scratch her.

Fortunately, the overgrown road wasn’t that long. They only walked for a bit and they already arrived at a flat grassland. There were dense tall trees growing at the edge of the grassland, tightly screening the golden sunlight from above.

The air was filled with light green grass fragrance, Li Man deeply inhaled and felt really happy, “This place is really good.” Connected to the few villages under the mountain, this place also can’t be seen from outside, completely hidden. It’s like another world, quiet and peaceful, even the time seemed to move slowly here.

Li Mo looked at her slight smile, put the basket down, found a big tree and sat down, “Do you want to sit down too?”

“En.” Li Man turned her head and smiled brilliantly; her little feet stepped on the crisp grass. She swiftly ran and squeezed herself at the spot next to him, although her eyes couldn’t stop looking around.

Endless green trees with overlapping branches, spots of glistening sunlight, fresh and beautiful grass, petals of blossoming flowers falling profusely, and there’s even a beautiful butterfly flying past her eyes.

Li Man was so surprised she opened her eyes wide. She stretched her hands, wanting to catch that butterfly, but who knew that it was so sly. When it flew in front of Li Man, it slowed down its speed, like it wanted to fall on her shoulder. But when she reached out her hand, its small wings fluttered and flew far away. She didn’t catch it in time, and her body fell down.

Li Mo reached out and held her, he smiled, “It flies really fast, not easy to catch. Do you want me to help you?”

“No need.” Li Man busily waved her hands. “I’m only playing around.” She only wanted to hold that little thing in her hands, how could she handle it?

Li Mo only stared at her smile silently.

Li Man’s face was slightly red, she whispered, “What are you doing looking at me? Is there anything on my face?”

“Oh.” She suddenly became reserved. Li Mo felt a bit regretful, secretly upset to himself for gazing at her so fervently. She was so lively and dazzling, this kind of her, he couldn’t help but look.

Still looking? Li Man felt a bit stuffy, she hastily got up, “I’m going there to look.”

“Be careful!” Li Mo shouted suddenly and stretched his hand. Li Man who was just about to get up, was pulled in his bosom.

Li Man fell into his arms, her shoulder hurting, but there’s no respond whatsoever from him. She looked at Li Mo. One hand tightly hugging her, the other hand holding a branch, gently picking up a coiling snake not so far from them.

She was scared when she saw the snake looked like it was enchanted, it’s long body wrapped around the branches, it’s little tongue raised and spitted at them.

“Aa.” Li Man’s face was buried in Li Mo’s chest, she dared not look again, only feeling all of her hair rising. She’s really afraid of this kind of crawling soft-bodied animal, both of her legs turned soft.

Li Mo didn’t know she would be afraid like this, trembling inside his embrace, he could only gently patted her, his other hand threw the branch and the snake far away, “Don’t be scared, it has already been thrown away.”

“Is it gone?” Li Man nervously moved in his arms, slowly turning her head and looked at his empty hand. She felt relieved, but still a bit uneasy, “Where did you throw it?” Although the snake doesn’t have long legs, but it can still crawl quickly and come back to them again.

She still has a fearful expression on her face. Li Mo didn’t regret not letting her know his original plan on catching the snake to be cooked into a nourishing soup for dinner. Although his brothers really loved it, but when he looked at her like this, its better not to search for snakes anymore in the future.

“Threw it over those thistles, it won’t come back again.” Li Mo gently patted her back, softly comforting her.

Li Man looked at the thistles, its thorns and weeds were flourishing, it’s the place where snakes love to stay in. Her heart slightly relaxed, “En.”

Although she just relaxed, she suddenly thought of something and hurriedly got up, “Quickly go. We’re too close to the thistles, other snakes could appear.”

“Already going?” Li Mo stood up, he felt dejected. He didn’t expect a small snake could break the rare beautiful atmosphere they had cultivated, “There’s more inside-“

“We should go home.” Her legs went soft once she thought that there could be other snakes around.

After she said it, she immediately started looking for the way back.

“ManEr.” Li Mo suddenly caught her.

“Wha-?” Li Man’s heart jumped.

Li Mo took her hand and led her to the other road, “Let’s go here.”

“Oh?” Li Man asked curiously, she turned her head around but she didn’t find any scary crawling thing.

Li Mo took her inside the mountain. When the road became flat, he said, “There was a little phyton hanging on the branch, I’m afraid that you would be scared when you see it.”
