Chapter 132: Tiger Infested
"I'm so dizzy......"
Nie Chunxian fainted as she spoke, and after she came out, I found that the blood from the wound on her calf was jet black.
Obviously, those people's knives were smeared with poison.
I helped Nie Chunxian to lie down, and at this moment her right calf was already blackened.
I put the dagger on the coals and roasted it and bleed her, she had been poisoned by the snake and was still very weak, but now it was even worse.
I myself was injured and had no choice but to return to the camp for help.
I picked up Nie Chunxian and was about to leave, when I suddenly saw a yellow-brown shadow in the distance......
It's actually a tiger!
It must have come out to feed, because it smelled of blood.
Taking advantage of the fact that the tiger was still some distance away from here, I hurriedly took Nie Chunxian to hide.
The man who died in the crack in the rock was also bleeding, and the normal smell of blood was more likely to attract the tiger.
I hid in the distance and watched as the tiger jumped into a crack in the rock, and it wasn't long before a terrible scream could be heard from inside.
Presumably two unconscious living people were attacked by tigers.
The tiger was eating people in the hole, and I could leave here with Nie Chunxian at this time, but as soon as I stood up, I saw a group of wild wolves.
It seems that the beasts attracted by the smell of blood are not only a tiger, but also a pack of wild wolves......
Nie Chunxian and I both had wounds on our bodies, and the wild wolf's sense of smell was very sensitive, and it was easy to spot us.
Now it's really a wolf and a tiger......
The wolves slowly approached, and my heart was in my throat.
Roar!
There was a roar from the cave, and a moment later the tiger jumped out.
The wolves also stopped when they saw the tiger.
Whew!
The wolves howled at the tiger with a warning-like howl.
In the wild, a wolf is not as powerful as a tiger, but a pack of wolves is not.
I was caught in the middle with Nie Chunxian in my arms, this feeling was so exciting, if I hadn't been bold, I would have been scared.
Fortunately, the wolf and the tiger seemed to be on the same page, and neither paid attention to me.
The tiger is a very territorial animal, and it is naturally not happy that these wild wolves rush into its territory.
Roar!
The tiger roared in the sky, and the sound almost burst my eardrums.
The next second the tiger rushed towards the wolves, and a thrilling beast battle took place right before my eyes.
The fire was still burning, and the beast didn't dare to approach, so I quickly took Nie Chunxian to hide by the fire and burned the fire vigorously.
The size of the pack was relatively small, only a dozen of them, and a few wild wolves surrounded us, but they did not dare to approach.
I held a burning log in my hand, and the flame was our only hope for survival.
The tiger's combat effectiveness should not be underestimated, even against a group of wolves, but the tiger is difficult to defeat the wolves, and soon the tiger has several shocking scratches on its body.
Three of the wolves also fell to the ground covered in blood.
Roar!
At that moment, the roar of a tiger sounded again, and this sound came from somewhere else.
Could it be that there are other tigers here?
The next moment I saw three tigers, one of which was clearly twice as big as the others......
It turned out that this area was inhabited by a litter of tigers.
It is said that one mountain does not tolerate two tigers, unless there is one male and one female, and it seems that the tiger that appears first is a male tiger who comes out to feed.
Three more tigers appeared, and the wolves gradually stopped attacking, and a confrontation formed between the two sides, obviously the tiger still had the upper hand in momentum, after all, the name of the king of beasts was not blown.
With four tigers and a pack of wild wolves around me, Nie Chunxian is unconscious again, and my current situation has become very embarrassing and dangerous.
Fortunately, the tiger's attention was on the wolves that had invaded the territory.
The two sides faced each other for several minutes, and finally the wolves slowly retreated.
Now it's our turn to be dangerous, and for tigers humans are also invaders.
However, tigers do not attack rashly, they will watch for a period of time to make sure that their prey is not a threat before attacking.
There was a fire around me and they didn't dare to approach it for a while, but once the fire was extinguished, it was miserable.
So I have to make as loud noise as I can now so that they don't think I'm food.
At the same time, I slowly retreated with the torch, and Nie Chunxian was lying on my back unconscious, at this time I was more glad that she was not awake, otherwise if she screamed, the tiger would have treated us as food.
My heart jumped with every step back, but luckily the four tigers didn't rush over, and then they all jumped into the cracks in the rocks to eat human flesh.
Call!
I exhaled deeply and hurriedly left with Nie Chunxian, but those wild wolves must not have gone far, so I couldn't run away blindly.
I found the cave where I had spent the night, and it was a good place to hide.
There were some thorny plants around, and I cut them all down as the first line of defense for the cave.
Because the threat here is not only wild wolves but also tigers, my current physical strength is not able to fight against either side, even if my physical strength is normal, I don't think I can fight a litter of tigers.
Nie Chunxian's calf was bleeding, and now the jet-black color has faded, but she has lost too much blood and her face is very bad.
My arm was pierced by a bamboo arrow before, and now it is still a little swollen, it is estimated that it is infected inside, and it must be dealt with in time, otherwise my hand is very likely to have muscle necrosis.
The only good news now is that we have picked up a dropped kettle, which still has half a jug of water in it and will last us all night.
But we hadn't eaten for about two days and two nights, and we had to replenish our energy.
After lighting a fire in the cave to ensure Nie Chunxian's safety, I went out to find food to eat, and even then I couldn't go too far.
It was a bit difficult to find meat here, and I remembered the three wolves that had fallen to the ground earlier, and that was food, but I wasn't sure if the tigers were still there.
Fortune is in danger, and I plan to take the risk and try it.
When I got back to the place, I saw a long trail of blood and a messy footprint, and it looked like the tiger had dragged the carcass from the cave and brought it back to eat.
The wild wolves on the ground are still there, and it seems that the taste of human flesh is more attractive to tigers than wild wolves.
I'm worried about the tigers coming back, so everything I have to do is fast.
I cut a large piece of meat from the wolf and took it with me, but I couldn't take it back to the cave to dispose of it, and I remembered the boiling hot spring water I had found earlier, and maybe I could use it to cook the wolf's meat.
It's dangerous to walk around here with a drop of blood, and every distance I have to change direction to keep other beasts from following me.
The boiling hot spring water was in a hole in the ground, and it was impossible for me to go down, so I had to use a knife to make a hole in the meat and hang it with a rattan stick and put it in the water to cook.
