Chapter 31: Encountering a Tiger

After Qin Shihuang unified the six kingdoms, in order to show his supreme authority, he went on five tours. In 210 BC, when he returned to Jinling from the fifth tour, several accompanying magicians saw the majestic mountains around Jinling.

The terrain was dangerous, so he told Qin Shihuang: Jinling has the spirit of the emperor. When Qin Shihuang heard this, he was very unhappy and ordered people to dig out Fangshan Mountain to allow the Huaihe River to flow through Jinling. This dissipated the emperor's spirit and changed Jinling to Moling. "Mo" means

The meaning of fodder means that this place should not be called Jinling, but can only be relegated to a horse ranch.

The Han Dynasty followed the customs of the Qin Dynasty and did not change Moling County back to Jinling County. After bidding farewell to his parents and family, Zhu Kui took Wang Cheng and set off for Moling County. Before leaving, his mother Chen gave them a day's supply of dry food and half a day.

A bag of copper coins. In fact, he had planned everything in advance. He held the package on his back and heard the sound of the bamboo slips shaking along the way.

The moon is bright in the sky, and the stars are faintly visible. Shigang Village is located in the outermost part of Moling County. It is located in an extremely remote section of the Huaihe River upstream. To get to the county seat, you have to climb two mountains. If you walk quickly, you will arrive at night, if you walk slowly, you will have to wait until the next morning.

Dragging seven-year-old Wang Cheng along, I climbed a mountainous road for a day. After nightfall, there was still some distance to go, so I had to sleep on the mountain.

A winding mountain road in Shizi Mountain is hidden among thorn bushes. The trees growing alternately are blown by the night wind, making rustling and whining sounds, like the cries of a resentful woman, lingering among the barren graves and wild graves.

Two small figures were eating dry food around the fire.

Zhu Kui asked: "A Cheng, do you have any complaints about asking you to come out with me this time?"

Wang Cheng, who was quietly eating dry food with his head down, heard Zhu Kui's question. He raised his head and smiled and replied: "Third brother, you are worrying too much. In fact, your family has been very good to me. After my great-grandfather passed away, these three years have been thanks to my third brother."

Your family has taken care of me, otherwise Cheng'er would have been living on the streets. In the future, Cheng'er will definitely repay your kindness when he has the ability."

Zhu Kui couldn't help but be moved when he saw that the eight-year-old child in front of him said such touching words. If this were the case in his previous life, a seven-year-old child would probably just cry in confusion. Perhaps it was because of the living environment of the ancients.

Due to the difficulties, his mind matured very quickly. For example, during the Warring States Period, Gan Luo was granted the title of Shangqing by the King of Qin at the age of twelve. He could become an official at an unknown age and could distinguish right from wrong. Could it be that his soul had traveled through time just like his own.

"Third brother, since I promised Uncle Wang to raise you, you can rest assured. When I was away from the mountain, that fifth girl often bullied you. Are you angry with her?"

Perhaps without the presence of Zhu Kui's family, facing Zhu Kui alone, he became much more cheerful. While eating dry food, he said with a smile: "Actually, the fifth sister did not use the money given by Uncle Zhu as you thought.

, they were all taken away to buy things, and I also had a share of those clay figurines, and they even bought me a wooden sword."

"Here! Look." Wang Cheng took a delicate wooden sword from the small bag. It was made of a kind of hardwood and was made by carpenters as a toy specially sold to rich children.

Zhu Kui looked at it casually, then threw it back to Wang Cheng, patted the other man's head like a brother, and said: "Don't be nervous about going to the county seat. I know this is your first time leaving the village so far, but

After I go to Moling County, I have already had these ideas on where to stay, where to eat, and how to eat, and I will let you live the life of a young master."

"Really? I said that the third brother is the most capable. I will definitely follow him when I grow up."

In the Yangtze River area after autumn, the weather is quite cold at night. The two of them huddled together around the fire, still shivering from the cold. It can be said that farm children have experienced many winds and frosts, so they will not easily get sick from it.

Suddenly, a gust of wind blew, and both of them opened their eyes at the same time. One woke up and stood up, and then they felt something strange around them. This is human nature, staring at the alert. Wherever the gust of wind passed, they could only hear a thumping sound behind the trees.

Sound, like a cannon roaring: "Roar!~~~~~"

A dazzling tiger jumped out, its eyes revealed the luster of an animal, and a bloody and barbaric aura spread out.

When Zhu Kui saw it, he exclaimed: "Oh! It's just an eye-catching tiger."

Tigers are precious and rare things in modern times. Zhu Kui has only seen them in zoos. Wild tigers are not far from extinct, if not extinct.

"A Cheng, you go first." He pushed Wang Cheng far away with one palm, letting him escape first. He subconsciously held the dragon scale dagger in his other hand and looked at the eye-catching tiger opposite.

Seeing the eye-catching tiger walking like an emperor, taking three steps to the left and three steps to the right, preparing for the attack...

"The tiger's momentum is endless. If it pounces first, it may be difficult to resist, so it is better to strike first." Zhu Kui thought to himself, and then his body moved with the sound, taking two steps with his left foot, and then glared with his right foot.

, like shooting stars chasing the moon, the tip of the dragon scale dagger is as silver as an arrow until it reaches the huge tiger's eye.

A snake hits seven inches, a tiger hits both eyes. As long as you can blind the eye-catching tiger, even if you are hit a few times, it doesn't matter, you can escape.

The eye-catching tiger looked at the little man in front of him, but he dared to offend him in turn with the food in his mouth.

"Roar!~~~~"

Zhu Kui's movement was very fast, and the eye-catching tiger was even faster. The tiger claws waving with his two forelimbs, the palms were almost as big as Zhu Kui's head, and they were driven by strong winds, covering him like a fly swatter.

This turn of events almost made Zhu Kui unable to react. The king in the forest is Wang Zhu. At the critical moment when the tiger's claws were about to strike, Zhu Kui turned around and narrowly avoided it. The dagger continued.

He stabbed upward, but was blocked by another tiger claw.

The dragon-scale dagger was indeed a sharp weapon that had been refined over time. It penetrated directly into the flesh of the tiger's palm and got stuck on the metacarpal bone. The tiger, who was in pain, flicked his palm with all his strength and threw Zhu Kui away.

The dagger was knocked to the ground. The force was as strong as seven or eight strong men. Zhu Kui did several somersaults in the air. After holding back all his strength, he could stand back to the ground. He exhaled heavily, and that was all.

After a while, the back of my head was sweating profusely.

At this time, Wang Cheng rushed to Zhu Kui with the wooden sword and shouted: "Third brother, let me help you." The simple and honest face, with angry eyes and flushed face, said: "Third brother, let me help you."

At a young age, his aura is not as impressive as that of a dazzling tiger.

"Bastard, why didn't you run away? Why did you come back? Why are you helping?" "Don't back down now!" Seeing him running over, Zhu Kui yelled angrily and pulled Wang Cheng behind him.

At this time, the eye-catching tiger had recovered from the pain of the tiger's palm. He lowered his head again, growled, and looked at the two little guys in front of him who had caused harm to him. He actually hurt himself. The tiger's eyes gradually turned red, and he took another step.

With one step closer, he wanted to tear these two guys into pieces and eat them without leaving any bones.

Zhu Kui bowed his waist and carefully led Wang Cheng back. It had been eleven years since he came to the Eastern Han Dynasty. He had walked in the mountains and forests and hunted and burned himself countless times. Most of the animals he encountered were hares, wild deer and the like. The most ferocious animals were those similar to mountains.

Just a pig.

I have also heard from the adults in the village that there are big insects infested deep in the mountains, but I have never seen them, and I have rarely heard of tigers eating people. I thought that there might not be any tigers in the south of the Yangtze River, or that many of them live in the north.

I didn't expect my character to explode today, but I encountered it.

At this moment, Zhu Kui, who was being stared at by the eye-catching tiger, was shocked. He originally thought that after practicing swordsmanship for three years, his martial arts would become a green forest master, but he didn't expect that he couldn't even take two rounds of the eye-catching tiger.

In fact, Zhu Kui is too arrogant. He is not that easy to be a tiger-fighting hero. The Romance of the Three Kingdoms is only among the top 50 and can fight against the eye-catching tiger alone. What's more, Zhu Kui is only eleven years old and has not developed any strength at all. He relies on his martial arts.

It's just a weird and quick movement and a sharp dragon scale dagger.

There was absolutely nothing he could do in front of the tough-skinned tiger who was faster than him.

He was constantly thinking about countermeasures in his mind, how to solve the crisis at hand. Running was not possible, but the tiger was extremely strong, and its claws were waving as fast as the wind, so running would definitely be amazing.

I can't fight hard, and I can't escape. Could it be that I finally got lucky and lived for eleven more years, but I am going to die again tonight, and I have to let Wang Cheng die with me? God will not play such a trick on me.

"Roar!"

The eye-catching tiger roared, and no longer gave Zhu Kui a chance to think about countermeasures. It opened its mouth and rushed towards the two of them. At the critical moment of life and death, Zhu Kui's forehead was sweating. Under the pressure, he stared fiercely, his heart

He said cruelly: "I have died once anyway. Even if I die again, I will take you with me to be buried with me."

With both hands forming fists, I wanted to learn how to fight like Wu Song.
