The Record of the Cheap Snake Chasing His Wife

A cluster of bonfires was crackling in the cave, and the pheasant was cleaned by Ze Yu, and it was exuding a strong fragrance of fat.

Next to it was a pile of red, yellow, green, and purple fruits, many of which Tan Chen had never seen before. He picked one up curiously and smelled it. He felt a refreshing fragrance and really wanted to take a few bites.

"These are all edible, Brother Tan, you're welcome." Ze Yu said while turning the pheasant.

Tan Chen smiled gratefully: "I'm sorry to trouble you."

Zeyu sat cross-legged in a serious and old-fashioned way, with his back straight, "There is no such thing, it is my elder brother who troubled you."

Zetten opened his mouth unconvinced as if he wanted to say something, but he couldn't say anything after holding it in for a while.

Completely... can't refute!He did cause Tan Chen a lot of trouble.

Tan Chen glanced at the annoyed Ze Teng amusedly. Although he wanted to agree with Ze Yu's words, that idiot was his lover after all, and he had to give him the face he deserved.

"Zeten is studious, a hardworking man... no, a hardworking snake."

Zetten immediately raised his chin arrogantly: "Look, look, brother, I'm still very capable!"

Zeyu nodded in understanding: "Thank you, Brother Tan."

Tan Chen was silent.

It seems that in front of this Zeyu, what he said is superfluous... ==

When the pheasant was cooked, Zeteng tore off the chicken leg and handed it to Tan Chen, and then threw a chicken wing to his younger brother.

Tan Chen was speechless: "Why are you so mean to Zeyu?"

Ze Yu waved his hand and said, "Brother Tan, don't worry, I don't like cooked food."

Tan Chen didn't believe it, and thought they were being polite to him, so he threw some chicken at the two little snakes in the corner, and found that they just smelled it and didn't seem interested, so he started to eat it with confidence.

Zetten was very aggrieved: "Look, what a waste for him."

"Understood." Tan Chen flicked the back of his head lightly, "Let's eat your meat."

Not long after, Zeteng's old lady rushed in rushing in with a tall man. Seeing Tan Chen, the man burst into tears: "Uh...Daughter-in-law, I didn't mean to..."

"Just now?" Tan Chen thought for a while, then asked uncertainly, "... Are you referring to the incident at noon?"

"Yes, yes, yes," the man changed his face faster than Zeteng. He still looked guilty at first, but in a blink of an eye he nodded with a smile and sat down beside Tan Chen. His handsome face was even more different under the reflection of the bonfire. Wei Wei, "I'm ashamed to say that when we met for the first time, I didn't prepare anything good for you. When I have a chance to see you in the future, I will definitely give you a better present."

Tan Chen felt a little apprehensive: "No, Uncle, I am the one, I didn't prepare anything..."

The other party smiled and shook his head: "You are willing to be with my son, not afraid of monsters, our whole family is already very grateful to you."

Hearing this, Tan Chen suddenly felt uncomfortable.

As he had previously feared, for Zetten, his whole life was but a moment of it.

Doesn't he worry that Zeten will fall in love with someone else after he dies?

……how is this possible?

As long as he thinks that this smiling face will bloom to others one day, and his gentleness will become something exclusive to others one day, Tan Chen's mind seems to be tightened.

Love is a selfish thing after all.

Before he had time to think about it, Zetten's father had already taken out a gold thread as thin as silk and held it on his fingertips. Unless he observed it carefully, it would be difficult to detect its existence.

Seeing this, even Ze Yu, who had always been as indifferent as water, showed a surprised expression, "Father, you are..."

Tan Chen could tell from his performance that this was absolutely no small thing, and he was not willing to accept it: "Uncle, I voluntarily joined Zeteng, and he didn't owe me anything, please take it back."

Ze Teng frowned and clenched his teeth, not knowing whether to persuade Tan Chen to accept it or let his father take it back.

Zeteng's mother gave her two sons a look, then smiled at Tan Chen, "Don't worry about it, it's just a thing to prevent forest miasma, and it can also avoid mosquitoes in summer, it's not a treasure , accept it."

Zeteng's father also struck while the iron was hot: "Yes, we are invulnerable to all poisons, so we don't need this thing. You can just hold it to protect yourself."

The meeting gift given by the other party's parents is too unjustifiable, but Tan Chen is also worthy of the gift that is too heavy.He looked at Zetten hesitantly, as if asking for his opinion.

Ze Teng shook Tan Chen's hand, and after a while, he curled his lips and said, "Take it."

Ze Yu also nodded.

Tan Chen stood up and bowed solemnly to Ze Teng's parents.

His hand was gently lifted, and as soon as the golden thread approached, it automatically circled around his wrist as if it had come to life, and then the light shone so brightly that he could barely open his eyes. At that moment, the golden thread suddenly disappeared, as if it had melted into his flesh and blood.

"Okay," Zetten's father laughed heartily, "Daughter-in-law, we will be a real family from now on."

Tan Chen sincerely thanked him, and even forgot to care about the address.

*****

Two days later, Tan Chen and Ze Teng returned home.

Zetten's parents were very reluctant, but they did not persuade them to stay. After all, staying in this cold place for a long time is not a good thing for human beings.

Before leaving, Tan Chen's travel bag was forcibly stuffed with various fruits and yams. Ze Teng's father patted the heavy bag and said with a smile, "It doesn't matter if it's heavy, my son is strong, just leave it to him."

"Of course, I will carry Xiao Chen back safely!"

"I know you can do it!" The beautiful old lady Ze was very happy, "Go, we old couple will have a chance to visit you in the future."

"You are welcome anytime." Tan Chen smiled, and called out cordially but solemnly, "Dad, Mom."

The two old men stared at each other for a moment, then moved and hugged him respectively.

There is always a banquet in the world, Ze Teng turned into a snake shape, carried Tan Chen, and left slowly along the way he came after saying goodbye.

Father Ze looked at the direction in which they disappeared, and put his arms around his wife's slender waist: "This child Tan Chen, it is worthwhile for us to give him this gift."

"Well, he deserves it."

The two stood happily for a long while, and Father Ze suddenly said in astonishment: "By the way, wife..."

"What?"

"It seems that I haven't seen Boy Yu since the beginning, why didn't he come out to say hello when my brother and sister-in-law left..."

"...?!"

Serpents swam by, blades of grass rustled.

Tan Chen was half lying on Zeteng's back, looking at his wrist in a daze.

Up to now, he still doesn't believe that the gold thread is just a "useless thing" as the second elder said. If it is true, Zeyu's expression will not loosen, and Zeten will not let him accept it after struggling. .

Although the struggle was not obvious, it was impossible for Tan Chen to be unaware that the two were partners after all.

But even if he asks, I'm afraid Zeten will not tell him the truth, and all curiosity can only be kept in the bottom of his heart for the time being, and he will make indirect remarks when he has a chance in the future.

Zetten is familiar with the terrain, coupled with his fast speed, they returned to the avenue for tourists to go up the mountain in a short time.

After changing back into a human form under the shade of the trees where no one was paying attention, and putting on his clothes again, after making sure everything was normal, Zetten dragged Tan Chen down the mountain.

After shopping all the way, they found another restaurant to have a full meal, and the two boarded the return train at 02:30 in the afternoon.

Sitting on the bed, Tan Chen stared at the classmate "Xuan Jiongyue" who was on the opposite bed.

Zeten collapsed: "Why are you again?!"

Xuan Ming jumped up: "You think I'm happy? I happened to buy a ticket for the same carriage as you guys! Do you think I'm happy!?"

"Okay, what's the fuss about!" Tan Chen propped his forehead—how did he become like a meddlesome old woman when he met these two people?

Ze Teng quietly sat beside Tan Chen, glancing at Xuan Ming from time to time.

Xuanming let out a "chuck", and laid his long legs leisurely on the table, "No matter what I do, I won't snatch you away, so just put a million hearts on it!"

Zetten also sneered: "Oh? I don't know which one with long claws likes to grab food in my hunting range since childhood?"

"Can prey be the same as humans?!" Xuan Ming looked at Tan Chen, suddenly his pupils shrank, and he was stunned.

He is a wolf demon with profound cultivation, and of course the faint golden color flowing on Tan Chen's wrist cannot escape his eyes.

——Did he read it right?How could this human being... How could Zeten's family be willing? !

"Zeten, you..." Xuan Ming's complexion was uncertain, and it was the first time he showed a serious expression in front of Tan Chen.

Tan Chen's heart trembled, and he subconsciously looked at his wrist.

——It should be the only thing that can make the other party react like this.

Zetten quietly blocked his lover behind him, frowning in warning: Mind your own business!

Xuan Ming twitched the corner of his mouth: "...Oh, it seems that you really fell into it."

Zeteng didn't want to talk to him, and he just busily helped Tan Chen buy food and pour water.

It didn't take long for Xuan Ming to fall asleep on his own bed. Although Tan Chen also felt sleepy, but...

He touched his wrist, inexplicably feeling a little heavy.
