Zhongzhou.

Sparsely populated place, close to dusk.

In the middle of the desolate mountains, the bushes are overgrown and the weeds are about half a man's height, and in the summer, thumb-sized mosquitoes fly everywhere in the forest.

"Smack......

As a subtle crisp sound fell, a muttering voice faintly came from the forest: "Steward Wu, are you sure that evil beast will really pass by here?"

If you look closer, you will find that in a jungle near the stream, there are faintly more than a dozen people staring at the stream below.

These more than ten people are all men, both dressed and dressed in simple clothes, like ordinary villagers, but each of them is holding knives, forks, bows and arrows and other weapons.

The person who spoke was a fine man, who was wearing short sleeves and his thick arms had already been bitten by mosquitoes in the mountains with many red bumps.

Steward Wu's name was an old man wearing a scarf and a green robe, and this person obviously had a lot of status among more than a dozen people.

"Quietly. ”

Steward Wu made a silent gesture and said to the elixirous man: "Tian Peng, I can't lie to you, that evil animal will come here to drink water every day at dusk, and the cycle has never been broken, I don't believe you ask Li Liuzhi." “

The Li Liuzhi in his mouth is a middle-aged man with a thin body, but his eyes are bright.

Li Liuzhi nodded again and again: "I can swear, I have observed it back and forth for a month, and there will be no mistake." ”

Hearing him say this, everyone completely suppressed the irritability in their hearts, after all, Li Liuzhi is a well-known hunter in Dongzhang Village, and he can shoot a stone bow, and there is no such thing as a false hair.

A month ago, the village often lost people, and this incident even affected the county government, and Zhang Yuanwai in the village had to be forced to investigate.

As a result, it was found that there seemed to be a tiger in the mountain, and the initiator of all this was this tiger, so Zhang Yuanwai had to order Steward Wu to mobilize the power of the young and middle-aged people in the whole village to reward this tiger clearly.

Tian Peng, the fine man, rolled his eyes, stared at Steward Wu and said, "Steward Wu, if we really kill that evil animal, everyone will be able to get ten taels of silver in front of us?"

As soon as these words came out, everyone looked at Steward Wu uncontrollably, and their eyes were full of excitement.

One tael of silver, equivalent to two thousand yuan, can buy more than 300 catties of rice, if it is ten taels, that is, 3,000 catties of rice, enough for a family of five to eat for a year.

"Naturally!"

Steward Wu stroked his beard and smiled: "The population of our Dongzhang Village is not large, if we continue to let this tiger continue to abuse, it will be completely abolished, you can rest assured, if you can kill this tiger, ten taels of silver per person, and the most powerful will be directly twenty taels." ”

Hearing twenty taels, Tian Peng was so excited that he couldn't wait to rush out and slash now.

At this time, he noticed that a swarthy man beside him was silent, and couldn't help asking, "Old Zhangtou, why are you stunned?"

The man named Lao Zhangtou is about fifty years old, and he should not appear in the tiger hunting brigade at this age, but because he is a well-known blacksmith in the village, he has developed some arm strength, so he is allowed to join.

After Lao Zhangtou came back to his senses, he pouted and said, "I'm thinking, after I get the reward this time, do I want to find a family for my daughter......

"Just the five big and three thick and fierce looks of your Cuihua, which man would dare to ask for it......" Tian Peng muttered with a strange face.

When Lao Zhangtou's face was angry and he was about to reprimand, he heard Li Liuzhi whisper a reminder: "Don't talk, there is movement......"

Everyone was silent for a moment, and following Li Liuzhi's gaze, they saw a faint shadow at the end of the shade below walking towards the stream.

When everyone saw it clearly, they found that it was actually a giant tiger with a body size of nearly two meters, covered with colorful markings.

"Spotted Tiger, this evil beast is Spotted Tiger......" Li Liuzhi lowered his voice.

"Dare to love is still a valuable beast......"

Someone was shocked.

After a while, the spotted tiger walked to the stream, reached its neck and began to drink, apparently unaware of the people in the forest.

"It's time to kill !!"

Taking advantage of the spotted tiger lowering his head, Tian Peng shouted and rushed out with a woodcutter in hand.

And as he rushed out, the remaining dozen or so people also swarmed out, as if they were infected by Tian Peng's morale.

"Whoosh......"

At this time, a sharp arrow shot out from the forest, heading straight for the spotted tiger, which was obviously pointed out by Li Liu.

He didn't want this arrow to kill the tiger, because it didn't exist, he just had to shoot it and make it bleed too much.

However, when he was about to hit the spotted tiger, he saw a black wall of qi suddenly emerge from the body surface of the spotted tiger, and he blocked the arrow.

"Not good!"

Li Liuzhi's complexion changed suddenly, and he hurriedly got up and roared angrily: "This is a demon tiger who has cultivated the climate, Tian Peng, hurry, come back quickly!"

They are all ordinary people, and they may still have the strength to fight in the face of an ordinary tiger, but if they are against a demon tiger, they must be vulnerable......

In fact, he saw not only the scene just now, but also the others, but even when they wanted to turn back, it was too late.

"Ang ......"

As a tiger roar shook through the mountains and forests, I saw that the spotted tiger turned around suddenly, opened its bloody mouth and directly swallowed Tian Peng, who was rushing to the front.

"Quack Quack ......"

With the sound of chewing, a big living person disappeared in an instant, and the rest of the people yelled frantically, and you pushed me backwards.

"Oh, my feet, my feet......"

The old blacksmith twisted his ankle in a panic, and immediately fell to the ground, trying to call for help from the others.

However, in a panic, how could the people who were only thinking about running for their lives save him.

The old man trembled, and watched with despair as the spotted tiger approached him with its tail outstretched.

As if swallowing Tian Peng, it suddenly opened its big mouth and bit directly at Lao Zhang's head.

Old Zhang Tou closed his eyes in despair.

"Bang ......"

And at this moment, Lao Zhangtou suddenly heard a loud noise in his ears, as if something in the sky had fallen down.

It smells of blood.

"Oh my God, what's that?"

"It's a human?"

When the people who ran to the mountain looked back, they saw a big living person suddenly falling from the sky and smashing the spotted tiger to death.

Lao Zhangtou couldn't help but open his eyes, and what caught his eyes was an incomparably bloody scene, the previous demon-like spotted tiger was lying on the ground at the moment, smashed into almost shapeless.

On his body, there was a blood-blurred figure lying at the moment, who seemed to be a man, but his eyes were closed, and he didn't know whether he was dead or alive.
