Shen Xiu was about to go upstairs after eating, but was stopped by the waiter.
"Sir, please wait a moment and take a moment to speak."
The waiter took Shen Xiu to a corner, then pouted downstairs and said, "Those people in the world, when they heard that you were going to go together, said that they can go very fast on horseback, and taking you with them will definitely delay their journey."
Shen Xiu's heart sank, but before she could say anything, the clerk said, "I heard what they meant, and it's not impossible to bring you guys with me, but you will have to pay for the transportation."
It turned out that they wanted money. Shen Xiu breathed a sigh of relief. She was eager to go to Qingshan County and didn't care about the money at all.
However, after Shen Xiu took out a piece of broken silver, she asked again, "Ms. Qin, do they also have to pay for the carriage fee?"
After getting the clerk's affirmative answer, Shen Xiu took out another piece of silver and said, "I paid the silver for them, so you don't have to tell them specifically."
When Shen Xiu was eating, she only ordered a bowl of plain noodles because she had no appetite. Lady Qin, mother and son, also ordered the cheapest plain noodles.
Shen Xiu guessed that they must be short of money, otherwise Mrs. Qin would not even save the pills.
Since the other party was in trouble, Shen Xiu paid the money for them.
She didn't ask the waiter to tell Mrs. Qin, but Bilian overheard the incident when she asked the waiter for hot water.
When she returned to her room, she told Mrs. Qin about this matter.
"Mom, they all seem to be strong on the outside but weak on the inside. They haven't even learned the inner skills yet, so they have the nerve to ask for carriage fares." Bi Lian said angrily, "When I go on the road tomorrow, I will find a chance to learn from each other.
Toughen them up."
"Don't cause trouble for me." Mrs. Qin coughed a few times and said, "Let them do whatever they want! As for the little money Mrs. Shen helped us advance, if there is a chance in the future, we can help.
Help me."
Bilian nodded, then remembered something and said: "Mom, I think Mrs. Shen is quite generous. Do you think we should borrow money from her..."
Madam Qin shook her head and said, "Forget it. I don't think Madam Shen comes from a wealthy family, so she probably doesn't have much wealth."
Bilian said with some worry: "But my mother's health is getting worse every day, and I'm afraid I won't be able to support her until Xiangyang."
"Don't worry, I'm fine." Mrs. Qin coughed and said, "I can support myself until Xiangyang."
But Bilian was still extremely worried. When they set out on the road the next day, she carefully helped Mrs. Qin onto their mount, a donkey.
The few people in the world were riding fat and strong horses. When they saw the donkey that Madam Qin was riding, they showed contempt.
Shen Xiu hired a carriage, and she sincerely invited Mrs. Qin and her daughter to ride in the carriage with her.
Mrs. Qin declined because she was weak and could not withstand the bumps of the carriage.
Shen Xiu did not force it, but asked the coachman to slow down so that Mrs. Qin and her daughter would not fall behind.
The coachman said: "Ms. Shen is kind-hearted, but the heroes in front of us ride very fast, so we won't be able to catch up with them."
"It doesn't matter. They haven't gone far anyway. Let's wait for them and their daughter so that the people in front won't go too fast."
The coachman was quite disapproving of Shen Xiu's considerate gesture. He ignored the good guys in front and instead tried to win over the mother and daughter behind. This Mrs. Shen really didn't care about the importance.
The carriage soon reached the mountain forest.
The few people in the world, no matter how talented or bold they were, slowed down at this time, and all of them watched the movements in the forest warily.
These few of them came to this mountain forest specifically for not only the one hundred taels of silver rewarded by the government, but also for the tiger itself, which was also very valuable.
It's just that the tiger didn't know if it was full, so it hid in the tiger's den and slept.
In short, several people in the world wandered in the forest for a long time, but they didn't see a single tiger hair, let alone the shadow of a tiger.
The tiger didn't appear, so Shen Xiu was the most relaxed.
She hoped that the tiger would never appear, but things went against her wishes. It was probably because a few people in the world made too many moves and disturbed the sleeping tiger.
Anyway, when everyone was about to leave the forest, a tiger roar suddenly sounded in the forest.
Before hearing the roar of tigers, Shen Xiu felt that there was not much difference between the tigers in the mountains and the tigers he saw in the zoo later.
But when he heard the tiger roar, Shen Xiucai knew why the tiger was called the king of the mountain.
After hearing this tiger roar, the animals in the mountain forest fled into the distance one after another, and the birds in the forest were also frightened and flew into the sky one by one.
Shen Xiuze rubbed her ears fearfully. Now she only hoped that the few people in the world could take down this tiger with their large numbers.
Although those few people in the world were vulnerable in Bi Lian's eyes, they were overwhelming in numbers. When they heard the roar of the tiger, they did not panic, but quickly spread out, preparing to attack the tiger.
.
Shen Xiu did not dare to get out of the carriage, and even dared to lift the carriage curtain only a small crack, for fear that it would harm herself.
As the roar of the tiger approached, a striking white-fronted tiger appeared in Shen Xiu's sight.
This white-fronted tiger was much larger and more powerful than the tigers Shen Xiu had seen in the zoo.
Taking advantage of the large number of people, several Jianghu people first used bows and arrows, and after shooting the white-fronted tiger, they used swords and worked together to fight the tiger.
The white-fronted tiger's movements were extremely flexible. Even if he was hit by several arrows, he could still dodge most of the swords and even bite two people with his mouth open.
Shen Xiu was so angry in the car that she didn't dare to show her anger. She didn't know if these gangsters could take down this tiger.
She was watching intently, but she didn't know that something unexpected happened. In order to avoid the sword of one of them, the white-fronted tiger actually rushed towards the carriage.
Seeing that the carriage was about to be knocked down by the white-fronted tiger, at the critical moment, a dart shot out from a short distance and hit the white-fronted tiger directly between the eyebrows. The dart that was thrown over went straight into the body without any bones.
Not even a trace was left.
Until the white-fronted tiger fell heavily to the ground, no one noticed the dart. They thought that the white-fronted tiger died of exhaustion after being hit by two knives.
Shen Xiu could see clearly from inside the carriage. She clearly saw something sinking into the forehead of the white-fronted tiger. The object, which was either a dart or a knife, was clearly thrown from behind the carriage.
And there was no one else throwing things from that direction except Madam Qin and her daughter.
In order to check whether he was dazzled, Shen Xiu got out of the car and touched the newly killed white-fronted tiger.
The white-fronted tiger still had its bloody mouth open, looking extremely scary. Shen Xiu endured the fear and touched its forehead, and sure enough, a dart had been inserted there.
With a calm expression on her face, she used the cover of her sleeve to pull out the dart, and then hid it in her sleeve without leaving any trace.
Several people in the world were celebrating their hunt for the white-fronted tiger, but no one noticed Shen Xiu's movements.
After Shen Xiu left the white-fronted tiger, she walked towards Madam Qin and her daughter.
"I have no words to express my gratitude for saving my life. Please accept my bow." Shen Xiu solemnly bowed to Madam Qin and Bilian.
If they hadn't taken action just now, once the carriage was knocked down, she would probably have been seriously injured. Even if she was lucky enough to be slightly injured, she would have been injured by the white-fronted tiger.
Madam Qin didn't seem to want to admit it, "I don't quite understand what my sister is saying. Weren't the ones who just killed the tiger the few warriors in front of me?"
Before she could finish her words, Shen Xiu had already spread out her right hand, and lying quietly on it was a bloody dart.
