Chapter 715: Chapter 703: Extra 2: Everyone Loves Tang Zhaozhao (Part 4) (5,000 Words)

After half a year of companionship, she had already fallen for Chu Mu.

She said, "Alright."

Tao Hai was a little surprised to see how agreeable Tang Zhaozhao was, and he chuckled lightly, "Then let’s go."

Tang Zhaozhao always had a strong ability to adapt. She found some vines and then taught Tao Hai how to weave a basket together, placing the gathered food and medicinal herbs inside it.

When it came time to rest at night, the two of them lit a fire and began cooking, while separating the herbs from the wild vegetables and starting to process the herbs.

Tang Zhaozhao judged the direction by the growth pattern of the branches to proceed.

But the pace was not fast.

Moreover, in these deep mountains, they needed to store food just like the small animals did, as well as the fierce beasts needing to stock up on food.

Tang Zhaozhao and Tao Hai first caught two wild rabbits, which made the two quite happy.

Tang Zhaozhao laughed, "We can have meat tonight."

It’s not that they couldn’t catch wild rabbits; it’s just that along the way they were focused on traveling and didn’t deliberately capture prey. Now these rabbits ran past them right into their hands.

Tang Zhaozhao’s martial arts skills were remarkable, and she then discovered that Tao Hai’s martial arts were no less impressive than hers.

The two worked together seamlessly and managed to capture both rabbits.

Just after they caught the rabbits, they heard the roar of a tiger from behind.

Tang Zhaozhao was about to turn back when Tao Hai grabbed her hand and started running.

"If you turn around, the tiger will bite off your head."

Both ran quite fast, but Tang Zhaozhao’s stamina was indeed a bit inferior to Tao Hai’s. To add, she was on her period recently, so she had no strength at all.

Eventually, Tao Hai bent down and picked up Tang Zhaozhao.

He used Qinggong to leap onto a tree.

The tiger followed and clawed at the tree, seemingly intending to climb it.

When the tiger was halfway up, Tao Hai quickly leapt to another tree, and after several times of this, Tao Hai rested enough while the tiger was exhausted.

Then Tao Hai began jumping back and forth among the trees, quickly losing the tiger.

Along the way, Tang Zhaozhao’s hands clung tightly to Tao Hai’s neck, her face buried in Tao Hai’s chest.

She didn’t say a word.

Tao Hai laughed, "What’s wrong? Have you been charmed by my grace?"

Noticing Tang Zhaozhao hadn’t spoken the whole time, Tao Hai lowered his head to look at her.

Tang Zhaozhao still hadn’t spoken, but her small face had turned pale.

Tao Hai asked anxiously, "Are you... are you injured?"

His tone lost its usual teasing manner.

Tang Zhaozhao shook her head, not saying a word. 𝚏𝕣𝕖𝚎𝚠𝚎𝚋𝚗𝐨𝐯𝕖𝕝.𝕔𝐨𝕞

Tao Hai raised his hand to find it covered in blood, then looked at Tang Zhaozhao, momentarily stunned, his eyes reddening instantly.

"Why didn’t you say you’re injured? Wait, I’ll apply some herbs."

At that moment, a blush appeared on Tang Zhaozhao’s pale face, and she wished she could find a hole to crawl into.

Seeing Tao Hai truly looking for medicine, Tang Zhaozhao coughed lightly.

"Well, I... I’m on my period."

Tao Hai’s hand slowed down while rummaging for medicine, then paused, standing there unable to say a word.

Tang Zhaozhao noticed this carefree man had his ears turn red.

This scene was truly too peculiar.

Tang Zhaozhao said, "Sorry, I..."

Tao Hai asked, "Did you bring any sanitary pads?"

Nowadays, sanitary pads were already common in the Great Tang, even ordinary families could afford them.

Speaking of this, Tang Zhaozhao felt somewhat annoyed.

"I would have liked to bring some, but you... you... your fine kite had such a mishap, I had no way to deal with it."

Tao Hai felt a bit ashamed, "Sorry, I didn’t mean it."

Tang Zhaozhao saw Tao Hai’s good attitude in admitting his mistake, and recalling his care along the way, she couldn’t help but cough lightly.

"Well, actually, it’s also my fault for being playful."

Tao Hai laughed, "If you’re not playful, then you wouldn’t see such beautiful river mountain, nor such a handsome person."

He pointed at himself while speaking.

Tang Zhaozhao rolled her eyes, only agreeing to the first half of the sentence.

Tao Hai said, "Then I’ll boil some hot water for you, so you can wipe yourself down. Perhaps you’re exhausted from the travel these days."

Tang Zhaozhao said, "But there’s no pot here."

Tang Zhaozhao suddenly had an idea, "Earlier, when I climbed up high to look far away, I spotted a hot spring here. Let’s go there to wash up."

Tao Hai nodded, "That’s good, you shouldn’t be moving around these days. This mountain is dangerous, that place is comparatively safer."

Tang Zhaozhao closed her eyes to think about that place, and when she opened them, she was about to point a direction, when Tao Hai said, "Over there."
