Volume 1 The East China Sea Dilemma Chapter 47 The Tiger Leaps Over the Cliff
The only way to reach the north slope is to go through the south slope, the distance between the two slopes is about 10 zhang, and the height of the north slope is slightly higher than the south slope.
With such a width, it is completely impossible to leap over by light skills, and we can only find a way to build a bridge to allow all the soldiers of the 5,000 Tongque Battalion to pass.
After Yue Linglong brought them over, she insisted on leaving, and Wei Zhang couldn't keep them anymore.
"Li Chuan, did you think of any way?" Wei Zhang asked.
"Let your subordinates try it and see if they can get to the other side first." Li Chuan himself is the acquired sevenfold realm, and only his martial arts are the highest here.
"Fetch the bow!" Li Chuan stretched out his right hand, and the soldier handed him a longbow and took out the arrow that had been specially made, and a rope was tied to the end of the arrow.
He drew a full bow and aimed at a large tree opposite, and with a sharp sound of breaking wind, the long arrow flew towards the northern slope and nailed it firmly to the tree.
Then, tying one end of the rope to the vine, he continued to draw his bow and shoot a few arrows.
He pulled a few ropes, except for one rope that fell because the arrow did not penetrate the tree, the other five ropes were quite safe.
"Childe! I'll try to see if I can get through. Li Chuan put down his longbow and looked at the north slope.
"Go ahead, be careful, and if it really doesn't work, go back!" With these ropes alone, it may be difficult to bear the weight of an adult.
Li Chuan jumped and stepped on the rope with both feet, he was still a little shaky due to the weight of his body.
Fortunately, his balance was not bad, and he quickly stabilized his figure.
He kept his balance with his hands flat in his arms and walked up the north slope step by step.
For Li Chuan, he is also very worried in his heart, after all, if he is not careful, he will fall and never recover.
Wei Zhang nervously watched Li Chuan's figure getting smaller and smaller, and prayed in his heart: "It must be successful!" ”
Seeing that Li Chuan had already walked more than half of the way, and was about to walk to the north slope soon, suddenly Wei Zhang heard a sharp tiger roar.
The sound of a tiger roaring came from the north slope, and a huge tiger came out of the woods.
Yue Linglong said that there is a tiger on the opposite side of the north slope!
I didn't expect it, there really is!
The tiger roared and leaped up to the edge of the cliff on the northern slope.
"Li Chuan! Be careful! Wei Zhang shouted loudly.
Li Chuan may not be able to hear his shout, but he really heard the tiger's voice, the moment he looked up, he saw a huge tiger head appear in front of him, and he was frightened for a while, and his body instinctively turned to one side, but he forgot that he was standing on top of the abyss.
"Li Chuan!" Wei Zhang saw that Li Chuan's figure fell directly, and his heart pounded.
The tiger jumped over Li Chuan, but did not fall, but turned into a sharp arrow, Wei Zhang saw a flash of white light, a gust of wind hit the face, "bang" a loud sound, the tiger has crossed the cliff more than ten zhang wide, and landed in front of everyone.
"Shhhh
It turns out that this is the origin of the Tiger Leaping Stream!
The cliff that ordinary people can't jump over, this tiger can actually cross in one fell swoop, it's really too terrifying!!
The tiger was half a man tall, more than three meters long, and its fur was golden, but in addition to that, the white hairs on its forehead converged into a "king" character, and each of the dense hairs stood up like long needles.
The soldiers' long knives and swords were unsheathed, staring nervously at it.
The man and the tiger confronted each other, the tiger did not make the next move, and Wei Zhang's atmosphere did not dare to come out.
He stared at the tiger carefully, only to find that the tiger was not staring at him, but staring at him with a deep and sharp gaze.
Wei Zhang didn't know what to do, turned his head to look behind him, but coldly found that behind him, a cyan giant wolf appeared at some point!
This is really a tiger and a wolf, which can be described as dangerous!
He thought that the route of this march should not be a big problem for the Tongque Battalion, but he did not expect to encounter such a dangerous situation.
"Whew!" The green wolf roared, and the tiger roared in return, shaking the mountains for a while.
"Tutu! Come back! At that moment, a voice came.
Yue Linglong, who had just left, walked over with a spear in her hand, the green wolf heard her voice, and the majestic momentum just now suddenly disappeared without a trace, it lowered its head and rubbed Yue Linglong's body with the wolf's head affectionately, like a child who had seen his parents.
Yue Linglong gently stroked its wolf head, and said in a doting tone: "You! I've only been away for a while, and you're up to it again! ”
"Ahh The green wolf barked softly, looking a little shy.
Yue Linglong stepped forward, looked at the tiger, and said, "A few days ago, I already let you go once, and you came to provoke again!" ”
The tiger looked at her with a hint of timidity, but he didn't flinch, "Huhu! The wheezing voice sold it.
"Miss Yue!" Now it seems that Yue Linglong must have dealt with this tiger.
"Tell your men to put away their weapons!" Yue Linglong gave him a blank look.
Wei Zhang asked people to put away their weapons, and Yue Linglong walked towards the tiger.
With each step she took forward, the tiger took a step back, barking at her as it retreated. In other words, when she encountered such a large tiger roaring, she was already frightened, but she did not have the slightest timidity, but held her spear and pressed towards the tiger step by step.
Wei Zhang noticed that although the tiger was very jealous of her, it didn't seem to be to her, but to the spear in her hand.
He remembered that Yue Linglong before was not holding this spear in her hand, could it be that this was a weapon she specially used to restrain the tiger?
The tiger had nowhere to retreat, and finally it couldn't bear the pressure brought by Yue Linglong, so it turned around and ran towards the edge of the cliff quickly, and then jumped to the north slope again!
Seeing that the tiger had retreated, Yue Linglong withdrew the spear, walked back to the green wolf, turned over and sat on the green wolf's back, and said, "Don't try again, although this tiger has been injured by me, it still has the strength of the acquired ninefold, not to mention that there is a tigress on the other side!" Even if it passes, most of them will be sent to death! ”
Wei Zhang was very disappointed, Li Chuan fell from the rope, most likely he couldn't survive, it seems that his march ended in failure.
Li Chuan is a general who can take charge of the Minzhou army alone, and now he died in such humiliation, which is a huge loss for the Minzhou army!
If he returns like this, my father doesn't know what he will be angry! He must find a way to cross the Tiger Leaping Stream and take Hancheng!
Thinking of this, he decided that the only person who had a way might be the strange woman riding on the wolf in front of him! Maybe she still has a way!
"Miss Yue, please stay!" He shouted and stopped Yue Linglong.
Yue Linglong turned her head, "What? You're not dead yet? ”
Wei Zhang straightened his clothes, respectfully performed a great gift of the Great Xia Dynasty, and said in a choked voice: "Miss Yue, Li Chuan has fallen over, and life and death are unpredictable. This trip is already a loss of a general, if you can't reach the north slope, then Wei is ashamed of his father! The girl is so familiar with this place, there must be a way to go by, right? I also asked the girl to help Wei once, and Wei thanked him for his great kindness in advance! ”
Yue Linglong's face didn't show any change in expression, and said, "Why should I help you?" ”
"This ......" Wei Zhang was speechless for a while, this Yue Linglong is not related to him, he can be said to be a stranger, and it is indeed difficult for a strong person to ask her to help him.
Just when he didn't know how to answer, suddenly the vines on the edge of the edge suddenly moved.
