114. Iron-eating beast

Pigeon Villa, there are cobblestones along the river bank.

This road to the bamboo forest on the mountain is not easy to walk.

Several farmers chatted under the sun:

"This girl doll from the city looks like a fairy. Why did she ask us to do this?"

"How do we know what these noble people are thinking? That tattered stalk can't do anything, but she treats it like a treasure."

"When they see the pickled things in the fields, they find them fresh and strange."

"Why waste our efforts and waste such a good pottery pot for nothing."

"That's not true."

"You really don't care what you do, if you exert such a little effort to control us and earn a few more copper coins, why are you dissatisfied?"

"That's true. Wouldn't it be nice to go to the mountain to chop bamboo and take a few bamboo shoots back?"

"You're right. No wonder your kid is carrying a basket. That's what he had in mind."

After hearing these people chatting among themselves, the manager didn't care and hurriedly took the bamboo umbrella to cover his fair-skinned and delicate young lady.

In fact, the steward was also wondering in his mind that his daughter-in-law could not travel properly with the general, so she had to go through such thankless things.

When the steward saw Chu Xujun, the cold general beside her was not enough to walk on her sunny side. He was covering her head with his wide sleeves to protect the girl from the shade.

The man in plain clothes next to him could see his eyes twitching.

Wei Ling saw the umbrella in the steward's hand with his sharp eyes and hurriedly took it. Then he said: "Let them cut down the bamboo. Why do you bother to make this trip yourself?"

Chu Xujun lowered his head and walked carefully to avoid tripping over any rocks that suddenly appeared: "The bamboo must be thin, tender, or small. I'd better come and take a look."

Although the ecology was extremely good at this time, Chu Xujun still had to watch, lest they know what they were doing today and turn around and directly destroy a bamboo forest.

Wei Ling: "What I made today looks different from tofu or ice cubes."

Chu Xujun smiled, Wei Ling just said that it didn't taste like food: "I promise, it's better than ice."

The girl's smile made Wei Ling feel even better, and he took the opportunity to glance at his friend.

The man in plain clothes understood his friend's complaint and asked if it was something better than the ice drink he had just tasted.

But with his brain that was so praised by the world, he didn't know what this beautiful doll was doing.

Even if his friend is an eyesore, he still has to follow him, and he can even resist rolling his eyes.

At the foot of the mountain, the farmers were walking up the mountain road in a lively manner.

Wei Ling suddenly stood in front of Chu Xujun: "Wait a minute."

The steward knew General Wei's abilities and hurriedly shouted to the farmers to stop.

The man in plain clothes had a serious look on his face, took out the bow from his sleeve, and stepped forward: "To the northwest, let's go."

The figure, one black and one plain, quickly disappeared in front of them.

Chu Xujun knew that in the original ecology at this time, big insects in the mountains and crocodiles in the river were very common, so he knew that some ferocious beasts might have appeared.

After a while, Chu Xujun heard a familiar yet unfamiliar cry that suddenly made her unable to suppress her heartbeat: "嘤~嘤嘤~嘤嘤嘤~~~"

The girl's ears stood up, she guessed something, she covered her little heart, my God, that is...

She rushed out, but the steward didn't hold her back, so she hurriedly followed her: "My aunt..."

When the farmers saw it, they hurriedly followed behind.

Chu Xujun was in a hurry, the mountain road was difficult to walk, and her original body was very weak. She ran very slowly, but she was in a hurry: "Wei Ling, Wei Ling, don't...Wei Ling, don't..."

To the northwest, Wei Ling's raised hand suddenly stopped.

He seemed to have heard Xu Jun's call.

Turning around, Chu Xujun's figure appeared behind the weeds: "Wei Ling, don't kill it."

She rushed to Wei Ling's side and was shocked by the scene in front of her.

It was black and white, with a huge white body, its belly and back were stained with blood, its dark eyes were closed, and it was no longer breathing.

Chu Xujun smelled the strong smell of blood again, and her head felt dizzy for a moment.

National treasure, giant panda, buzzing monster, iron-eating beast...

The first time she came into contact with it at such a close distance, it stopped breathing...

Sitting on the bottom of the cell wearing a beast, who did it!!!...

Tears instantly filled the girl's long eyelashes, startling Wei Ling who didn't understand why: "I didn't do it. When I came, it was already injured and almost dying."

The man in plain clothes also said: "It must have been something else that saw it was weak and took the opportunity to come in and hurt it. It fled here. The beast that hurt it was just scared away by us."

Wei Ling cautiously asked, "Shall I chase you?"

Chu Xujun sniffed, knowing that people in this era would not be able to understand the obsession and love of the national treasure panda in later generations. She shook her head: "Don't go." The one who hurt the national treasure must be another animal sitting in prison, and she can't

accept.

The man in plain clothes suddenly said: "Listen."

In front of him, the body of the blood-stained giant panda that had been motionless began to rise and fall slightly.

Chu Xujun was excited: "Are you alive again?"

Wei Ling shook his head, stepped forward and pulled the giant panda's body, and the residual blood spurted out some more. Seeing the girl's expression about to cry, the young man's heart shrank unconsciously, and he could not help but relax his movements.

At this time, under the giant panda, a small downy white dumpling tried hard to raise its little head, then lay down again, and could only try to make a sound of "嘤~嘤~嘤~".

Its body was stained with grass clippings, blood, mud...it was dirty, but it was the most precious cub in the eyes of future generations!

Looking at this little fragile guy in front of him, Chu Xujun's eyes were incredibly bright. A living, baby panda...

Her life is complete!

At this time, the farmers also started to get excited: "It's an iron-eating beast! It's such a big one. It's dead. Today everyone can eat meat."

"This iron-eating beast is not easy to catch. It is very strong, and its claws and fangs can hurt people. You are so skilled!"

"This trip today was really profitable."

"There is another little one, kill it quickly. This iron-eating beast is so cute that it eats people."

When Wei Ling saw that Chu Xujun's eyes were unkind and he was about to get angry, he quickly said: "The iron-eating beast was bitten to death by other beasts. It's not safe in the mountains. You guys should cut down the bamboos and go down."

The man in plain clothes exchanged glances with his friend, and quickly added: "This animal meat will be cooked by our Zhuangzi later and distributed to everyone, so that we can all taste it together."

The steward then scolded: "You didn't even do a few ounces of work on the meat that the master beat, but you just want to eat it. Is there such a good thing in the world?"

The farmer realized that he was overstepping and said hurriedly: "How dare you? We are just thinking that since there are many of us, we can help the nobles carry the animals back. Maybe we can get some scraps."

"Yes, yes, let's chop the bamboo right now. We want it to be tender, right?"

Chu Xujun's hands hanging by his sides were already clenched into fists, and fire was about to burst out of his eyes.

She knew she shouldn't be angry, but she couldn't control her emotions.

Iron-eating beasts were Chi You's mounts in ancient legends, and they did eat people. It is understandable that the ancients were afraid of them and wanted to eat the flesh of dead beasts.

In this barbaric age, they will not understand the feelings they have for the national treasure due to the continuous extinction of species in later generations.

But they actually want to eat panda meat! How dare they?

Can't!!!
