Chapter 22: The Time of Separation
The injured beast was even more wild and ferocious, and several sudden acceleration and pounces immediately shortened the distance, and Li Nan, who was fleeing, could even smell the fishy smell in the tiger's mouth.
Although this white-fronted tiger is powerful, it is only a beast with a low IQ after all, and it can do nothing more than pounce forward, bite and sweep the tiger's tail.
It's a pity that its first two moves can't hit Li Nan, who is getting faster and faster in speed and reflexes, and the tiger tail sweep with the widest attack range was blocked by the giant tree, although the hard tiger tail left a lot of traces of volleys on the thick trunk, but it didn't hurt Li Nan at all.
"Bang! Bang! Bang! ”
Li Nan, who had once again escaped the tiger's attack around the tree, raised his right hand and fired three shots in a row.
The first bullet hit the white-fronted tiger's only remaining right eye, and the other two went down the eye socket into its brain.
"Roar!" The fatally wounded white-fronted tiger let out the last roar of his life, and finally fell to the ground and did not move.
Li Nan didn't dare to be careless, aimed at the wound of the tiger's right eye, and shot all the remaining bullets in the magazine, seeing that the other party still didn't move, he sat on the ground and gasped violently against the giant tree.
At this time, a few people who were sleeping next to the big bluestone woke up, and when they saw the broken grass and trees and chaotic earth and stones around them that seemed to have been ravaged by a tornado, they couldn't help but stand up vigilantly.
"There's a big bug!" Pang Qiuxia exclaimed in surprise and pulled out the bright steel knife.
Pang Wanchun also saw the white-fronted tiger lying there more than ten meters away, and hurriedly bent his bow and arrows, and Pang Xu and Xiaohu also hurriedly drew their daggers and prepared to meet the enemy.
After Li Nan, who was sitting behind a tree and resting, heard Pang Qiuxia's shout, he was afraid that he would be injured by his own people, so he hurriedly shouted: "Don't be nervous, that big insect has been killed by me!" ”
Pang Qiuxia walked over quickly, saw that Li Nan's clothes were scratched by branches and stones, and quickly helped him up, and asked with concern, "Are you okay?" ”
"It's okay, these are all bruises, but there is some detachment on the legs, this big worm is too difficult to deal with"
After confirming that there was no danger, Pang Wanchun and the others put down the weapons in their hands, and Xiaohu excitedly came to the corpse of the white-fronted tiger and dragged it over with all his strength.
Pang Xu looked at the daughter who was carefully supporting Li Nan, as well as the corpse of the big insect that was pulled over by Xiaohu, and nodded secretly.
Coming to sit down on the big bluestone, Pang Xu beckoned and shouted: "Erlang, Qiuxia, come here, I have something to say to you." ”
Pang Qiuxia helped Li Nan over and asked softly, "Daddy, what's the matter?" ”
"Li Erlang, in your opinion, are we back?" Pang Xu asked.
The system should not go wrong, and besides, there are not many opportunities for tigers to appear in the mountains and forests of modern society, Li Nan nodded and replied, "I'm back." ”
"Well, it's good to be back." Pang Xu nodded and said, "Then let's separate here, you take Qiuxia back to Yanggu County to live, and Wanchun and I go back to Shezhou." ”
Pang Wanchun had no objection to his father's decision, but Pang Qiuxia was anxious and hurriedly said, "Daddy, why don't you take me with you!" ”
Pang Xu stretched out his hand and stroked Pang Qiuxia's hair, and said with a look of pity: "Xia'er, your mother died early, I took the two of you to run around, and I didn't let you live a stable life since I was a child. Now that you have grown up, when you are old enough to get married, you can live a good life with Erlang, and don't follow your father, a wanted criminal by the court. ”
Hearing this, Pang Qiuxia hugged Pang Xu and cried: "Dad, I won't let you go......"
Li Nan originally thought that Pang Xu had married his daughter to him, but it was just an expedient measure to express his trust at that time, but he didn't expect this fake show to really sing.
Without waiting for him to refuse, Pang Wanchun walked over, held Li Nan's shoulders with both hands, and said in a solemn tone: "Erlang, I hope you can take care of my sister, if I hear that she has been wronged in the future, then you can wait for me to clean you up!" ”
Li Nan carefully thought about the consequences of his opening to repent of his marriage, relying on his body that had been strengthened by the system, if he faced any one of the Pang family alone, he might still have a few chances of winning, but if they shot together, his fate would be miserable.
Looking at Pang Qiuxia, who was crying with pear blossoms and rain, thinking that he could marry such a young lady who could fight and fight with excellent knife skills, and had a fair complexion and delicate and beautiful complexion, Li Nan decided to respect Pang Xu's arrangement and not be an untrustworthy person.
Now that the matter has been decided, Li Nan shouted at Wang Hu, who was still squatting on the ground and fiddling with the corpse of the big insect: "Xiaohu, come here!" ”
Xiaohu stood up, came to Li Nan and bowed his head and said with a smile: "Erlang, what's the matter?" ”
"What about the gold I asked you to bring?"
Xiaohu lifted his clothes, only to see that nineteen gold bars were firmly tied to his waist with a rope, Li Nan took out a dagger and cut his belt, and sent all the gold bars to Pang Xu's hands.
"Pang... Father-in-law, it's a long way to go to Jiangnan, so let's take some entanglement. ”
"Hahaha......"
Pang Xu and Pang Wanchun laughed, obviously they were heroes like Jianghu, and they were very satisfied with Li Nan's title and his behavior of not caring about money.
However, Pang Xu did not put away these gold bars, but only took out one and handed the rest of the gold bars to Pang Qiuxia.
Pang Xu said with a smile: "Even if this gold bar is a dowry gift from your Li Erlang, as for your wedding, we can't attend, after all, Chun'er and I are both wanted by the imperial court." You don't have to worry about Xia'er's identity either, because I didn't get her to join Manichaeism. ”
Li Nan still insisted on handing over the rest of the gold bars to them, but the father and son were determined not to accept it, they both wanted to make Li Nan and Pang Qiuxia richer.
The two sides pushed back and forth, but no one wanted these gold bars, and in the end, Pang Xu shouted and calmed the scene.
Pang Xu said to Li Nan earnestly: "As the master of the Manichaean Dharma Hall, I have no fixed place to preach everywhere, and my brothers are also provided with food and drink, so it is useless to ask for these silver coins. There are still many places to use money after you and Xia'er get married, you two quickly kneel down and kowtow to me a few times, Chun'er and I have to hurry! ”
Pang Xu's attitude was very resolute, since the matter had come to this, Li Nan took Pang Qiuxia's little hand and knelt in front of Pang Xu, kowtowed respectfully three times, and bowed a few times to his brother Pang Wanchun, which was considered a courtesy.
The sons and daughters of the rivers and lakes do not drag their work, the father and son of the Pang family told Pang Qiuxia and Li Nan a few words, and then the two left quickly.
Li Nan comforted Pang Qiuxia, who was already his wife, and Xiaohu used great strength to carry the white-fronted tiger weighing more than 300 catties on his back, and the three of them walked forward along the path in the mountain.
Just walked out of the half-mile road, but two people wearing tiger skins came out of the roadside, holding a five-strand steel fork in their hands, I don't know whether the person who came was friend or foe, Li Nan quickly pulled out the shell gun and aimed at the two.
