Chapter Twenty-Four: The Slain Spirit Leopard
It was already dusk when we arrived at Jingshan.
There are just three houses on the mountain, one for Eagle Eye, one for Yi Xiaonian, and one for the Four Tigers and Four Brothers.
Soon after he returned, Hawkeye was gone.
Yi Xiaonian was idle, and before it was dark, he planned to go to the eastern forest to visit his little brothers, birds and beasts, who he hadn't seen for two days. After all, I am the king of this forest!
By the way, take the four tigers to see and see.
When I entered the forest, I suddenly felt that there was a tense atmosphere in the forest. Flocks of birds and beasts, moving at the sound of the sound, gathered around them with solemn expressions, on the ground and on the trees, or rubbing their hands, letting out a series of terrifying roars, or flapping their wings and grinning, and making sharp screams, which were simply the sound of the wind, and the grass and trees were all soldiers.
Don't you recognize Uncle Ben?
Maybe it's because of the four tiger heads behind him?
I saw that the four tigers were all in danger, trembling with fright, and quietly turned their heads and ears:
"It's terrifying, hey——, that black bear's eyes lit up, and he drooled with his mouth open......"
"Scared, it's not going to eat us, is it?"
"Tsk, treat us as enemies!"
"Ahhh
Yi Xiaonian didn't know what was going on in the forest, so he tiptoed forward, and the four tigers also tiptoed behind Yi Xiaonian.
You must first find the spirit leopard that has a good relationship with you and find out the situation. Yi Xiaonian turned his eyes to scan left and right as he walked, but he didn't find the figure of the spirit leopard. If you want to say that I have returned triumphantly, the spirit leopard should be the first to come out to greet me.
Could it be ...... Could it be ......
No, probably not......
Yi Xiaonian couldn't help but run, where is the spirit leopard, where is the spirit leopard......
After running for a long time and not finding the figure of the spirit leopard, Yi Xiaonian was anxious, and two tears crawled out of the corners of his eyes at some point.
Let's go to the old banyan tree where it often sleeps on it, and say that with full horsepower, Yi Xiaonian ran faster. The four tigers ran aimlessly behind, falling behind a lot, and they were afraid of the monsters in the forest, so they dragged their stupid bodies to follow, not daring to lag too far behind.
Xiao Hei's strength has increased greatly since he was promoted to the sixth order, and the more he runs, the happier he becomes.
After running for a long time, Yi Xiaonian finally saw the old banyan tree, through the faint light of Xiao Hei, Yi Xiaonian saw that the old banyan tree was surrounded by various animals, and the animals in front of him were crowded, rhinoceros, lions, tigers, black bears, giraffes, antelopes...... There are more than 10 white pythons coiled on the branches of the old banyan tree, bending their heads, spitting out their whiskers, squirrels, monkeys, gibbons hanging in the air, there seem to be countless birds on the top of the old banyan tree, the small leaves are constantly shaking, and the golden eagles, goshawks, and skuas can be seen faintly on the treetops.
Coupled with the animals that can't be seen in the shadows, the 60 species of birds and beasts in the eastern forest should have arrived, and it was the first time that such a big battle had been held.
An ominous premonition came over me.
The tears in the corners of Yi Xiaonian's eyes quickly turned into two streams, flowing down the sides of his nose, and he hobbled towards the crowded fauna, grabbing a rabbit in one hand and a hedgehog in the other...... Throw the animals in your way into the distance, and when you encounter a big wild horse or rhinoceros, you push a slit with your elbow, and then squeeze your body inside, and finally squeeze in:
The spirit leopard in front of him was quietly crawling on the trunk of the old banyan tree, his head half buried in the two paws in front of him, his face was kind and motionless, his stomach was pierced through three holes, his spine was also shattered, his entire back collapsed, the blood on both sides had dried up, the branches of the banyan tree under his stomach had been stained black and brown with coagulated blood, and there was still a pool of black blood on the ground.
The leopard is dead! My good friend is dead, and I haven't had time to name it yet, sir!
"Ahh
Yi Xiaonian looked up to the sky and roared,
"I'm going to take revenge! Revenge—— ah-"
Yi Xiaonian's face was red, and tears rushed out.
Xiao Hei on his shoulders also stopped dancing, his mouth pouted, his wings were no longer agitated, and his whole body was motionless, as if it was still.
It wasn't until he was hoarse and collapsed to the ground that Yi Xiaonian saw through his eyes blurred by tears, and found that there were several tigers, lions, rhinoceros, leopards, and antelopes next to him, all with wounds of different sizes on their bodies, and some of them were lame, and they were curling up one leg and trying their best to support them with the other three legs. Some even shed a large piece of fur and the wound was exposed, while others were lying on the ground, licking their wounds with their heads hooked......
Could it be that the forest is under attack?
Yi Xiaonian was observing, and suddenly felt a warm hand on his shoulder, patted it lightly, and hurriedly raised his eyelids to look up, I don't know when the guy Hawkeye was standing beside him unconsciously, with a solemn and solemn face, staring at him silently.
Maybe Hawkeye came before him.
I saw that Hawkeye suddenly turned around, flew up the branch of the old banyan tree with a "whoosh", and disappeared.
After Hawkeye flew away, Yi Xiaonian staggered to his feet, patted off the dirt sticking to his body, tidied up his tiger skin bear pants, his expression was solemn, and he stepped forward and picked up the corpse of the spirit leopard with both hands.
Then he turned around and faced the animals, with a serious expression, learning the loli sound of "meow-meow-meow-meow-" from the spirit leopard.
The surrounding animals immediately listened attentively.
However, this cry caused the four tigers behind the herd to snicker.
Seeing Yi Xiaonian squeezing into the animal herd before, they didn't dare to enter, so they stood on tiptoe behind the animals and looked. At this time, he heard Yi Xiaonian learning the spirit leopard calling, and was secretly whispering:
"What? This "meow meow" cry was made by the spirit leopard before his death?"
"This fierce beast spirit leopard, with a big mouth of blood, is not domineering at all!"
"Hee-hee, it's a little soft! like the voice of a little milk cat. ”
"This contrast is cute, it's amazing!"
As he was talking, he suddenly felt that the atmosphere had changed, and the fierce eyes in the sky were cast at them. Out of nowhere, there was a "squeak" grinding sound, which was very terrifying!
The four tigers hurriedly shut up, held their heads in their hands, and squatted on the ground, their bodies trembling. I thought: I won't really be eaten this time!
As soon as I squatted down and trembled for a while, I heard Yi Xiaonian's beast-like roar behind him, which resounded in the night sky.
Then I felt a sudden tremor, and when I looked up, I saw that the terrible beasts were departing one after another, and many of them seemed to be injured, and they were walking unsteadily, and they staggered towards the depths of the forest.
It was Yi Xiaonian who made the beast language, causing the birds and beasts to go back to their nests to rest and recuperate. He himself wanted to stay with the spirit leopard for a while, and bury the spirit leopard's body by the way.
After all the birds and beasts were gone, Yi Xiaonian slowly squatted down with the spirit leopard in both hands, sat on the ground, stretched out a hand, stroked the fluff on the spirit leopard, and was in a daze.
Maybe in the middle of the night, Yi Xiaonian came back to his senses, dug a big pit behind him, padded a few layers of leaves in the pit, touched it with his hand, and felt that it was okay, so he took off the tiger skin vest on his body, spread it on the leaves, and slowly put the corpse of the spirit leopard on the tiger skin.
Sitting shirtless on the edge of the pit in a daze for a while, he slowly grabbed a handful of soil around him and threw it down towards the spirit leopard in the pit little by little.
Yi Xiaonian set up a stone tablet for the spirit leopard, and used a projectile to type out a few words on the stone tablet from top to bottom:
Pal!
Originally, I was going to give the spirit leopard a name, but I didn't have a name before I was alive, so what's the use of giving someone a name after I die, and it's too brain-consuming to name it, so I ended it with a great exclamation mark with a projectile.
