Chapter Seventy-Seven: The Thousand Ninja Cliff Has No Way, and the Tiger Roars Mountain, Forests, Clouds, and Foxes Are Sad
There must be traces when you walk through, let alone in the daytime when the wind and snow have stopped!
Even though the rice took the cloud fox and ran through one mountain after another, the grinning mountain people could always follow the footprints of the snow and follow them unhurriedly under the guidance of the hounds. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
It was already far away from the village, and the tired and hungry rice and the cloud fox almost threw themselves on the ground from exhaustion. If at the beginning, the villagers only hoped to drive the tigers away so as not to harm people and animals, but now they are purely involved in huge profits.
Although the villagers didn't know why a tiger would run away with a fox, it didn't prevent them from having a clear understanding of the value of the pure white fox's skin. The wealth is charming, and there was a little awe that was originally there, but now it is only full of profit driven. If they can hunt a tiger, the whole village can get a lot of money, not to mention a more valuable white fox, and the large number of people also gives them full confidence.
Rice was forced to get up again and again, and fled with the cloud fox again and again, the tiger was originally an endurance animal, and this time it was squeezed with physical strength, but it was in the hands of the hunters.
The villagers consciously drove the poor rice and the cloud fox away from the original direction, and the bright void above the clouds saw the rice and the cloud fox in the distance, and a cliff in front of them.
There was a creaking sound in the snow, and a large group of hunters with fishing nets, fishing forks, hunting bows, spears, and hounds once again appeared in the sight of Cloud Fox and Rice. This time, the hunters did not chase immediately, it was almost dark, and after chasing all night, both the hunters and the rice and cloud foxes needed to rest.
The hunters lit a bonfire and sat down to eat. In the distance, Rice and Cloud Fox could only endure hunger and exhaustion, looking at the campfire, imagining the taste of food and drooling pitifully.
Cloud Fox regretted his rash departure, he missed the soft brocade bed, he missed the delicious food, he missed the restful sleep, and even the terrible poetry book was not so unbearable.
Night fell, the night wind was very strong and cold, and the snowflakes were falling one after another, and the cloud fox and rice were shivering and snuggling on the back of a slope, hoping to withstand the fierce cold and hunger.
Dusty thousands of miles away sighed slightly, then gently looked away, and refocused on the alien army that had traveled hundreds of miles away, despite the severe cold and wind and snow.
The army of the Ming Dynasty was also like the cloud fox, staying in a comfortable greenhouse for too long. I don't know the harshness of the outside world anymore. Even the elite soldiers of the Northwest who can be called the elite of the Ming Dynasty still retreated into the warm tents one by one regardless of the military order, refusing to leave a step.
Towering trees can't grow in the greenhouse, and it doesn't experience wind, frost, rain and snow, and it is difficult for both the cloud fox and the Ming army to be reborn. Even if he knew that there was a cliff in front of the cloud fox and rice, even if he knew that the enemy army was marching day and night, he didn't say a word.
This night, the cloud fox didn't know how he got here, and it had never suffered for the first time and left its warm embrace and lay in the cold snow. For the first time, there was no delicious food to be delivered to me, and I spent a day and a night hungry.
"Why didn't Master and Yunhua come to me, don't they want me?" Yun Fox thought about this problem all night, remembered Chen's smile, and remembered Yun Hua's embrace. If it weren't for the rice by his side, I'm afraid it would have to go back, even if it didn't have face, and it had to read those difficult books and five classics, it would be better than coming now!
The cloud fox didn't know when he had fallen asleep, but his big fluffy tail was a good quilt, and the size of rice was just right to block the wind and cold for it.
Rice didn't sleep all night, it was well aware of the danger in the dark after experiencing the mountains and forests, watching the fox curl up in a ball and fall asleep beside him, Rice was lying horizontally, with his ears high up, not relaxing for a moment.
Early in the morning, when a low roar sounded, the cloud fox was also awakened. They're going to hit the road again, and it seems that the hunters won't let them go easily.
The armored white snow reflected the icy white light, and this time the cloud fox did not run away on the back of the rice. Rice has not been eaten either, and if even rice has no physical strength, it is impossible for them to protect themselves.
If only he could transform as soon as possible, he could at least fly away with Rice Edgeworth. It would be better if you concentrate a little bit when you cultivate, and the group of villagers in the back is just something that can be settled with a snap of your fingers.
A dog barked in the distance behind him, and the hunters were still chasing. In the snow, a tiger with a snow-white fox ran desperately. When the cloud fox and they just got rid of the chasing soldiers and wanted to take a rest, the nasty barking of the dog would come again, and they could not rest for a moment, not at all.
"Maybe I should have left overnight yesterday, even if the night wind is cold, even if I am tired!" Cloud Fox thought.
When the sun was climbing to the middle again, the cloud fox and the rice stopped again.
Cliffs, with unfathomable cliffs in front and pursuers coming from three sides behind. Rice roared, turned his head and arched himself slightly, and kept letting out a threatening low roar from his mouth, but he hid the cloud fox tightly behind him.
The sturdy figures of the dozen or so hunting dogs appeared first, and then a large group of humans. They took fishing forks, knives and guns and cautiously forced up the hill step by step, looking at the tiger in front of them, their eyes were full of excitement.
Wealth and danger are sought, such a huge tiger and such a precious silver fox are really a good opportunity to make a fortune that can not be found. What is the threat of a tiger that has been tired and hungry compared to that huge harvest?
The hounds surrounded them in pairs on three sides, but the hunters carefully followed behind in a formation of formations, guarding the three sides of the hill, and advancing step by step.
"Whew~!" The ground screamed, and Rice was the first to strike. He galloped toward the west, aiming at the westernmost men. There are few people there, and it will be the best breakthrough. But at the moment before it was launched, he kicked the unguarded cloud fox off the cliff.
A dozen or so hounds bravely rushed over, surrounded the rice, and lowered their throats to attack, and they were obviously only feints, consuming the little strength left in the rice, and at the same time feinting at the back of the rice.
Rice roared, and suddenly pounced, and a hound, which had rushed slightly to the front, couldn't dodge, and was pounced on by Rice. After the hound screamed, he was bitten to death by the rice in the snow. Blood stained the snow red, and Rice ignored the more ferocious roars of the other hounds, and tore at the prey on his own.
Rice is so hungry that it needs stamina to cope with the battle below.
The hounds were also apparently frightened by the "ferocity" of the rice. After they "whine", they immediately clamped their tails and spread the encirclement a little wider. At first, you rushed me back, and I retreated, and you continued to harass, trying to rely on the numerical advantage on your side to make the rice tired of coping.
Rice is already familiar with the way hounds are treated, and the last time he was trapped in the mountains, he had a large group of hounds besieging him. The rice turned a deaf ear to this, and continued to concentrate on eating until the ground was eaten. It wasn't until the hounds, who had grown bolder again, approached him again that Rice pounced again and quickly pressed one of the leading hounds to the ground with his paws.
The rice was still eating, and none of the hounds dared to rush ahead this time. The instincts of animals make them feel dangerous. All that was left was the constant barking of the lustful and inward, and the two attacks of the rice finally succeeded in terrifying the hounds.
Two big dogs are enough to eat enough rice. Rice, who had regained some strength, finally set his sights on the hunters not far away.
The rice roared, and the frightened hounds "whined", and they were so frightened that they scattered, and ran away from the boss in desperation, and the encirclement of the hounds was finally broken. Rice also took advantage of this opportunity and struck quickly.
Rice first made a tiger leap and rushed towards the east, and the crowd was in a commotion, and they all stopped approaching, and when they were about to fight, Rice suddenly turned around and rushed towards the west. The crowd in the west changed color. When he couldn't help but stop his footsteps and hurriedly gathered in a group to protect himself, the rice suddenly turned a corner, easily spared, and ran towards the bottom of the mountain.
There was a burst of invective in the crowd, and then a few hunting bows were taken down, and no longer caring about the intact tiger skin, they bent their bows and arrows towards the rice coming down the mountain.
"Whoosh!" A few sharp arrows broke through the air, and the rice immediately retracted its front paws, and the whole body fell to the snow, and after a few rolls, I saw a few feathered arrows inserted into the snow, leaving only a little arrow tail trembling slightly. Just as Rice breathed a sigh of relief and was about to get up and run forward, suddenly another sharp wind sounded, and Rice, who had already fallen to the ground, only came and twisted his neck slightly, and the feather arrow was stuck in Rice's back.
There was a shout of scolding from the crowd. The hunters again chased after them with their hounds.
Rice only felt a heart-piercing pain in his back, and he couldn't care about the injury on his back, and after a low roar, he got up and continued to run.
The crowd was stunned, why did this injured tiger have no fighting spirit at all, and only thought about "running for his life"?
Rice didn't know how far she had run, but she felt her kick getting heavier and harder, and the wound on her back was getting more and more painful. The blood stained the colorful fur red, leaving a clear line of blood, and quickly took away the strength of the rice.
The rice was running slower and slower, and his steps were so heavy that he could barely lift them. After staggering through for a while, he finally fell headlong to the ground.
Rice knew that it was in danger, and at this moment it remembered Konishi, remembered the dust, sounded the woods behind the mountain temple, and remembered its only friend, the white fox.
Rice looked back at the mountains and forests to the east.
You must have run far enough, right? But I've done my best!
I don't know if Konishi will miss me, he should have been crying in a hurry at this time, right? Are you too willful? Knowing that Xiaoxi would be sad, he ran out with the fox.
"Whew!" A tiger roared, shaking the mountains and forests. Rice didn't want to fall like this, and with the nasty "Wang" sound in his ears, he struggled to get up as he watched the approaching figure, arching his back again, trying to pounce again.
The tiger is dead and the wind is here, and the mountain is poor!
There was a lot of talk in the crowd, this tiger was too much of a surprise to them. The hunters cautiously approached, lest they follow in the footsteps of the two hounds, but they desperately whistled the hounds to attack, even though they knew that the tiger in front of them was already at the end of their crossbows.
The vision is getting blurred and the eyelids are getting heavier. Everything seemed to be quiet, and Rice felt like she could hear her own pounding heartbeat.
"Whew!" After a scream, the rice fell again, but this time it didn't even struggle, and lay there motionless, slowly closing its tiger eyes.
The hounds finally mustered up the courage to approach, and the crowd gathered around again....
More than ten miles away, a snow-white fox is also struggling for survival.
The cloud fox was kicked by rice into a cedar branch on the edge of a cliff. The winter wind was howling, and the pine branches were swaying slightly with the strong wind, and the cloud fox had to concentrate all his energy on holding on to the branches tightly, and he was terrified and did not move.
"Whew!" A desolate tiger roar faintly came, and the cloud fox, who had never had a heart or lungs, couldn't help but shake his body, and the white hair on his body also stood up, wailing desperately in the direction where the sound came!
"Woo!" The cloud fox was really anxious this time, and he could no longer be full of fear, and began to climb along the branches to the edge of the cliff step by step. Step after step, even a small mistake is facing an abyss.
If there is no fear, there is no disadvantage, and finally brave the cloud fox, and finally reach the trunk of the pine tree smoothly.
Follow the trunk of the tree to reach the edge of the cliff. There are countless withered vines there, and that is the only way out for the cloud fox, and it is also the only way for the cloud fox to escape.
The wind was howling, and the cloud fox grabbed the mountain vine tightly and began to climb up little by little. Like a white flower swaying in the wind, it will fall into dust at any time, fall from the cliff, and turn into a splendid spring flower under the cliff in the coming year.
Cloud Fox has never thought that he will be afraid of danger at this moment, and Cloud Fox has never worked so hard at this moment. More than a break. If Yunhua and the others knew, they would definitely be able to pop their eyes out. But the cloud fox did it, because its friend was in danger and it had to save it.
Foxes are not goats or monkeys, and their soft paws are not very good at climbing. Even if there are ancient vines to rely on, as long as you bite one of them, you are not afraid of falling, but moving so little by little also makes the claws and mouth of the cloud fox grind countless bloody scars.
The paw hurts, the mouth hurts, the fox is tired, and the stomach is hungry. The cloud fox wanted to cry so much. But he couldn't hold back, and towards the light of the sky at the end of the cliff, he clung to the withered mountain vines and climbed hard. When you are tired, you bite it with your mouth and rest for a while, and after recovering your strength, you continue to hook the mountain vine with your bloodstained claws and move it up little by little.
The mountain wind blew away all the scent of the cloud fox, and the cliff disappeared all traces of the cloud fox. The hunters stood on the edge of the cliff and searched several times, but when it was dark, they left disappointed.
The cloud fox didn't know what was wrong with the rice, but by the time it finally lay down on the snow exhausted, the moon had already climbed high and high. There was silence in the mountains and forests, and the cloud fox couldn't take a break, chirped and wailed, and ran in the direction of the last roar of the rice.
Even if it is death, even if it is made into a coat in the end, the cloud fox will die with rice.
At this moment, Cloud Fox has unprecedented firmness. Even the mountains and forests illuminated by the moonlight are as bright as silver. But the running figure of the cloud fox is still so eye-catching, so dazzling... (To be continued.) )
