Life in the Forest

Currently updating: I Heard You Want to Live Forever Too

Forest Life

A couple accidentally transmigrates to a fantasy continent.

A story about struggling to make a life for themselves in a forest in another world.

Here, pumpkins grow on trees, potatoes grow beneath vines, and pigs have wings...

The plants here are both familiar and strange.

(I'm the separator!)

"Does becoming emperor make everyone want to live forever?"

"Maybe."

Yun Yue was the Great Yan Emperor's medicine tester, forced to try the so-called elixirs of immortality.

She tested them for ten years, but no elixir was ever made, and then the emperor died.

So Yun Yue fled,

and lived quietly among ordinary people for three years.

One morning, Jiang Shen showed up at her door. From then on, Yun Yue had a shadow she couldn't shake.

Yun Yue: "Young Master Jiang, we're just passing acquaintances. We'd be better off going our separate ways."

Jiang Shen: "Don't worry, my dear. Wherever you go, I'll go too. No one can separate us."

Little by little, Yun Yue grew used to Jiang Shen's presence, and thought that having someone like him by her side might not be so bad.

Together they evaded assassins in black, watched the New Year's fireworks, and released lanterns for the Lantern Festival.

Yun Yue thought they might be able to go on like this forever.

Until she learned that the new emperor also wanted to live forever, and Jiang Shen was the sharpest blade at his side.

"Are you following me because my blood can cure your illness?"

"Actually, the medicine I tested back then didn't work. Didn't you notice? I'm about to die."

There is no elixir of immortality in this world. Ten years of testing medicines left Yun Yue poisoned.

She had wanted so badly to live. She'd heard the rain in Jiangnan was beautiful, and she'd never been there.

But now, she never would...

Content notes:

1. Happy ending. The heroine seems to die in the blurb, but she definitely won't.

2. The author is terrible at logic.
