The moon was at the top of the sky, and a cool breeze was blowing. The moonlight shined through the gaps in the dense leaves and shone on the ground of Daheng Mountain. As the leaves swayed, the moonlight also moved with it.
Unknown sounds of insects and roars of beasts could be heard from everywhere in Dayi Mountain late at night.
Luo Chen leaned against the tree trunk and sat on the branch, half asleep and half awake.
suddenly……
A figure bathed in the moonlight and exuding bursts of silver light slowly approached Luo Chen on a thick branch.
Luo Chen slowly opened his eyes. Under the moonlight, he saw a slender tiger, weighing about two hundred kilograms and covered in snow-white body, slowly walking towards him.
Although this white tiger only weighs more than 200 kilograms, it is already an adult and exudes a ferocious aura. It is more than half the size of the tiger Luo Chen saw during the day, but it is several times more ferocious.
Luo Chen knew that this was a beast-level tiger, with strength comparable to that of a third-rate early human warrior.
Luo Chen didn't dare to hold it up, so he held the handle of the knife with his right hand, his whole body's energy slowly circulated, and then continued to pretend to sleep.
When the white tiger was only four meters away from Luo Chen, it suddenly grasped the branch with its four legs, kicked hard, and lunged towards Luo Chen with its mouth wide open.
Luo Chen continued to pretend to be asleep until the white tiger was only two arms away from him, then he fiercely pulled out his knife and slashed into the wind with one move, slashing towards the white tiger's head.
Luo Chen learned the lesson from the Clouded Leopard. This time, his slashing into the wind was not only faster than the previous one, but also more powerful. Luo Chen was even prepared for the white tiger to dodge and change its moves.
But in the end, it seemed that it was useless. When Bai Hu saw his sleeping prey suddenly rise up, his eyes were stunned, and before his head could react, he bumped into Luo Chen's knife.
Luo Chen's knife filled with true energy instantly broke open Bai Hu's head in the middle. For a moment, bright red blood and white fluid flowed out from Bai Hu's wound.
"Roar……"
The white tiger roared in pain, silencing the chirping of nearby insects, and then sadly fell from the tree and fell heavily to the ground.
Luo Chen followed the white tiger and jumped down from the tree. He watched the white tiger lying on the ground and twitched for a few times before making no sound.
Luo Chen held the knife in his hand and walked towards the white tiger. He knelt down and stroked the white tiger's fur. In an instant, a soft and smooth touch came from his hand.
Luo Chen clicked his tongue and marveled, it was indeed a ferocious beast. The fur could go through the clouded leopard's skin for several blocks. It was worth thousands of taels of silver.
However, Luo Chen did not intend to sell the white tiger's hide. He planned to give it to Wang Yuying to make a cloak.
The bones from the white tiger's body can be used as medicine, and the tiger meat can increase a warrior's energy and blood if eaten. There are also tiger whips and so on. The whole body is a treasure. Luo Chen didn't want to throw it away, so he decided to take the whole tiger back.
"Forget it, I won't sleep anymore. It will be dawn in two hours, so let's go back!" Luo Chen thought as he looked at the sky.
So, Luo Chen no longer hesitated. He carried the body of the white tiger and the skin of the clouded leopard and walked back.
Although the white tiger weighs more than two hundred kilograms, it is not difficult for Luo Chen to carry it. With his third-rate initial strength, it is not a problem for him to carry two to three thousand kilograms.
It's just that Luo Chen is still young and not tall. After carrying the white tiger, he felt that his whole body was hidden in the white tiger's hair.
When the sky was slightly bright, Luo Chen relied on his senses to walk back more than seventy miles in the dark, and was still more than thirty miles away from the exit in the direction of Gushan Town in Daheng Mountain.
At this time, Luo Chen was sitting on the white tiger, wiping the sweat on his forehead with his sleeves. The white uniform embroidered with purple mist patterns on his body was also full of wrinkles. He carried the white tiger and walked for seventy years in the dark.
After a long mountain road, Luo Chen was really tired.
"This time I went into the mountains and didn't even see the hair of the exotic animals. It was really not worth it to make myself so embarrassed! Fortunately, I dug up a snow ginseng and got a white tiger. Otherwise, I would have suffered a big loss."
Luo Chen comforted himself in his heart. However, when he thought of facing the furious Wang Yuying after returning, Luo Chen began to have a headache again.
Just when Luo Chen was thinking about how to deal with Wang Yuying after returning, Luo Chen suddenly sensed several people walking towards this side along the path, seeming to be looking for something as they walked.
Luo Chen used his senses to identify again and found that it was his father Luo Tianhe, as well as Li Tian and some guards from Ziyun Villa. Luo Chen knew that they were looking for him.
"Dad! I'm here."
Luo Chen stood up and shouted in the direction of Luo Tianhe. This time someone finally carried the tiger for him, and Luo Chen was very happy.
When Luo Tianhe returned home from the General Affairs Hall yesterday evening, he heard Wang Yuying say that Luo Chen had not come back since he had been out for a day. Luo Tianhe didn't pay attention at that time, thinking that Luo Chen was just having fun and would not come back until after dinner at Tianxiang Tower.
After Qiuye took Luo Chen's horse back to the villa, Luo Tianhe and others realized that Luo Chen had been missing all day.
A group of people became anxious and quickly sent people to Gushan Town to inquire. After working for a while, they found out that someone had seen Luo Chen entering Daheng Mountain.
A group of people were a little dizzy when they heard the news.
Wang Yuying was even more anxious to go into the mountain all night to look for Luo Chen, but was stopped abruptly by Luo Tianhe. Luo Tianhe was afraid that Luo Chen would not find him, so he lost another one. This night in Daheng Mountain is no joke.
When it was almost dawn, Luo Tianhe finally couldn't wait any longer. So, he led Li Tian and ten guards into Daheng Mountain in the dark to look for Luo Chen.
Just when Luo Tianhe was anxiously looking for Luo Chen, he suddenly heard Luo Chen's shout, and his heart trembled. Then he hurriedly looked around, but saw nothing.
Luo Tianhe shook his head, thinking that he was hallucinating.
But just when Luo Tianhe was about to continue walking forward, he heard Luo Chen's cry again.
Seeing Li Tian and the guards walking over, Luo Tianhe was sure that he was not hallucinating this time. So a group of people hurriedly ran in the direction of the sound.
When Luo Tianhe came to Luo Chen and saw Luo Chen standing there safely and smiling, thinking that he had been anxious all night and Wang Yuying who was worried at home, the anger in Luo Tianhe's heart boiled out.
.
Luo Tianhe was about to use the knife as a stick to whip Luo Chen hard.
Suddenly, Luo Tianhe saw the white tiger at Luo Chen's feet. In an instant, all the anger on Luo Tianhe's body disappeared, and then cold sweat began to break out.
As a warrior born and raised at the foot of Daheng Mountain, Luo Tianhe had been in Daheng Mountain for most of his life, and he could see the strength of this white tiger at a glance.
Looking at Luo Chen who was safe and sound, Luo Tianhe suddenly felt very lucky.
