Marriage Beloved in Troubled Times: Madam Wants to Run Away from Marriage

Chapter 114 Women Are Weak, Mothers Are Strong

"I believe you."

Huo Xizhou only said four words to calm Gu Wan's heart.

He knew in his heart that if she really had any bad intentions, she would not have brought him and Zhang Zhun here. After all, this is a secret that no one knows. If she uses it herself, she can do a lot of things .

"Then... let's go down!" Gu Wan's heart warmed, and she said, "It's very shady down here, we'd better light the torches before going down! Those oily trees can come in handy, and with the fire, some poisonous insects can poison us." The ants will also avoid it."

Only then did Zhang Zhun know the purpose of Gu Wan looking for those oil trees.

He had matches with him, and quickly made several torches and lit one of them.

"Young commander, young lady, let me go ahead."

"Okay, I'll give up." Huo Xizhou said.

He found dead branches and weeds, and hid the entrance of the cave. Not long after entering, the stone slab at the entrance of the cave was closed.

"This secret passage is fairly safe. I used to come in alone and walked in the dark until I reached the ancient tomb. It took about a day and a night. That is, I was bitten by a poisonous scorpion. I dealt with it in time. Nothing happened. Now that we have torches to light, we should be able to walk more smoothly. I think we will be back in the city in half a day.

Go down from here, and then take a flat road, you will pass through an underground river, there is a natural stone bridge to pass, the air in that place is very sufficient, it should be the bottom of the crack valley, you can still see some light, and the air is also sufficient, When we get there, we will light a fire, dry your wet clothes, eat something to replenish your strength, and then climb up, which will be relatively strenuous.

It's just that when I got to the maze, I had to recall how I got out.I reckon that when we returned to Huo's house, it should be midnight, and there is nothing to eat at night, so eating is really necessary. "

This kind of explained why she insisted on hunting wild rabbits and catching fish.

Zhang Zhun immediately felt a little embarrassed. It is true that he had guessed wrongly what Gu Wan meant.

In fact, there are some things that Gu Wan didn’t say. Back then, she didn’t want herself and her child to die in the cold underground, so she tried her best to find a way out. She doesn’t have that kind of perseverance now, so eat something It is also necessary for her to replenish her physical strength.

"Let's go!" Huo Xizhou said calmly, but his heart was agitated.

He looked at the back of Gu Wan walking forward, and the strong man suddenly felt his eyes a little sore. In the past, when he faced various difficulties and killing situations, he didn't feel any difficulty or pain, but now because of It hurts that a woman can take him away safely.

——She was groping in such darkness alone, facing unknown dangers, she must be flustered and frightened, right?
And what gave her such great perseverance, so that she could desperately find a way out, even after being bitten by a poisonous scorpion?

She was said to be his little fairy, but she was only a mortal body after all. Where did she get such great strength for such a weak girl?

After walking for a while, Huo Xizhou saw that Zhang Zhun was a little far away, so he walked a few steps closer to Gu Wan, and asked her in a low voice: "Wan Wan, were you sure you discovered this secret passage by yourself? "

Gu Wan froze for a moment, understood why Huo Xizhou asked such a question, and shook his head.

"I'm not that strong. If I were alone, maybe I'd give up."

"Who else? Me?" Huo Xizhou asked again.

Could it be that she dragged him in because he was injured?

Or...Meng Shuheng?

"I once heard a saying," Gu Wan said softly, "Women are inherently weak, but mothers are strong."

Huo Xizhou's body shook: "Child?" Her and his children?
Gu Wan nodded her head, but was instantly surrounded by sadness: "It's a pity that I tried so hard, but I still couldn't...keep him."

After all, he died, and he died so badly.

If in her previous life she knew that the child she had worked so hard to give birth would die so tragically, she would wish she could die here, knowing that the fetus has not yet formed, so she would not feel much pain...

Huo Xizhou was silent for a moment, seeing that the road was wider enough for two people to pass side by side, he stepped forward, hugged Gu Wan, and said softly as he walked: "If what you said is true, He will come back, this time, I will protect him with you, whoever dares to hurt him, I will destroy his nine clans!"

Gu Wan chuckled lightly: "You really look like a tyrant."

"I only know that a man who can't even protect his wife and children is a waste!" This is the first time that Huo Xizhou expressed contempt for another "Huoxi State".

Gu Wan fell silent.

She was not his wife in the previous life, and he didn't like his son that much, because there were always people saying that the child was not his.

And she is not that loyal to him emotionally, and the relationship between them has never been happy...

But in this life, everything is different, and she will never repeat the mistakes of the previous life.

It's like walking this secret passage. She was so fearful and desperate in her previous life, but in this life she wants to walk safely and comfortably. She can eat a piece of rabbit meat and a piece of fish on the way, and when she returns to Huo's house , she would also like to see the reactions of those who tried to harm Horsey State!
After walking for more than two hours, Gu Wan was tired, so she suggested to sit down and rest for a while.

Huo Xizhou and Zhang Zhun stopped of course. Several torches had been extinguished, and Zhang Zhun lit a new one.

Under the light of the fire, the situation in the dark passage can be seen clearly.

There are traces of artificial excavation, but not many, as if this place was originally a natural cave.Gu Wan looked at some surrounding stones by the light of the fire, and saw that there were some green patterns on them, which looked like some moss.

There was also a big rock behind her. She stretched out her hand and touched it, but she touched something powdery, and there was no moss. She didn't pay attention to it at first. After resting for a while, she suddenly thought of something, her eyes lit up, and she was a little surprised He said: "Adjutant Zhang, please bring some torches."

Zhang Zhun didn't understand what Gu Wan was going to do, but he did it anyway.

After getting the torch, Gu Wan stood up and found that the rock she had just sat on was similar to the surrounding rocks.

"Wanwan, what's the matter?" Huo Xizhou asked.

"I know that both grandma and mother like jadeite ornaments very much, and a good jadeite rough stone can only have a beautiful jadeite ornament after the hard work of a master sculptor..." Gu Wan said, pointing to the stone and said: "Then Look, do these look like rough emeralds?"
