Chapter Nineteen: Negotiation
Xia Chan raised her head and stared blankly. Even though she was so far away, she could still feel its ferocious momentum.
This was the first time she had seen such a majestic tiger.
The unborn tigers were all locked in cages, their murderous aura and majesty were reduced, and they became as docile as a big dog.
The voice in her ears became thin and nervous, and Ruan pulled her: "Xiaochan, hide quickly."
Ruan pressed the three children on her body and opened her arms to protect them.
After a long, long time, I finally heard the sound of a child crying softly, and then one after another the tribesmen came out of the hut.
Everyone sat around without saying a word, feeling extremely hopeless and depressed.
A woman held her child in her arms and asked sadly: "Chief, can we just wait to die here?"
"Anyway, one of you must die, clan leader. Otherwise, if we don't care, we may still have a way to survive if we rush out."
The clan leader puffed on a hookah made from a bamboo tube: "If you rush out, you are rebelling. If this is the case, then our Xia clan will have no hope in the future."
"Clan leader."
"Clan leader."
The clan leader sighed and said: "This is our fate, and it can only be arranged by God. Tigers will not come to places with many people. We try not to go into the mountains and forests to avoid any accidents."
Xia Chan raised her eyes and said: "This is not the solution. If we expose it and hide it, it will always rush into the mountain den. I have a way to deal with this hidden danger."
All eyes turned to her at once, and she stood up: "Prince Gong specially arranged for us to be here, just because he doesn't want us alive and forcing us to rebel will only lead to the disaster of genocide."
The human heart is very dark, much more vicious than a tiger.
The power of one person is limited, but the power of more than a hundred people gathered together is unlimited.
"I've read in a book that although the tiger is the king of the forest, there are ways to control it." No matter how ferocious it is, it is an animal that has not learned anything yet.
"What can I do?"
"Dig traps where tigers are known to be."
Xia Changfeng looked at her with admiration, his eyes shining: "Yeah, why didn't you think of that? Sister Xiaochan is smart. I've heard people say that before."
Xia Chan thought for a while and considered the terrain here: "Dig the trap. When the white tiger attacks, if you are lucky, it may fall into it. If it goes down the mountain and hurts someone, we can also find a way to lure it there.
solve."
Aunt Jiang shook her head: "Little cicada, who dares to seduce me? Who can outrun the tiger?"
"I proposed it, just me. I will start practicing running to make myself run faster."
The clan leader put down his hookah, cleared his throat and spoke: "Right now, our entire clan has to face not only people from the government, but also threats from wild beasts. We must unite as one to overcome the difficulties together. Just listen to Xiaochan."
"Why should you listen to her? You all believe what a crazy woman says. It's really hilarious."
The first person to object was the cheap aunt again.
But this time, Xia Chan didn't need to quarrel with her. The clan leader spoke for her: "Xia Xiu, when the tiger comes, you can come out and lead it away."
"Chief, are you kidding? I am a woman, how can I run away?"
"Then shut your mouth, Zhang Qi, and take care of your family. Can't you see clearly what the situation is now? If we don't unite, it won't be a difficult life for the whole family."
It was a matter of life and death, and the clan leader became stern. Zhang Qi glared at his wife. Xia Xiu was not convinced, but she did not dare to say another word.
"Brother Changfeng, I tell you to draw, and then everyone will work together to take preventive measures."
She was not confident that she could defeat a tiger, but she could not sleep peacefully when a tiger was in danger. She had to make a plan quickly.
In the past two days, she had memorized the terrain a bit, and asked Xia Changfeng to draw it, and then marked it everywhere for everyone to dig traps early tomorrow morning.
