Chapter 40: Little White Tiger

After more than two hours of searching, Li Yu finally found a sable hidden in the dense forest. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

The sable is good at climbing trees, moves quickly and dexterously, and moves in the depths of the dense forest, allowing Li Yu and others to search among the trees. Its sense of smell is very sensitive, and when Li Yu and others found it, the sable had already found a human on the ground, and quickly jumped between the branches to escape, and disappeared in the blink of an eye.

"Look at it, there's one." Ling'er pointed to a brown sable eating in the treetops ahead.

"Shh Li Yu signaled to Ling'er not to make a sound, the sable elf is very good, and it may run away if there is a slight disturbance, and the first few times it was frightened away because Li Yu and others had no experience in hunting sable.

Ling'er hurriedly closed her small mouth and stared at the sable in front of her.

Li Yu drew an arrow and aimed at it with a bow, and the sable's sensitive sense of smell smelled a large abnormal smell, and it stopped eating and looked under the tree. Xu is sable has never seen a human since it was born, and when he found Li Yu and the others, he did not run away immediately, but looked at Li Yu who was aiming at it with a bow and arrow with some curiosity.

"Whoosh."

This sable will no longer have the opportunity to know that humans are far more dangerous to them than leopards and falcons. Li Yu's arrow went straight across its neck, and the sable died instantly.

"Shot!" Ling'er took the lead in running over and picking up the sable on the ground, looking at its reddish-brown fur for a while.

It took a long time to finally hunt one, but it was not enough to hunt fast enough to make a shawl.

Mei'er leaned over to Ling'er and looked at the sable, which was not much bigger than a cat, and frowned, "It's so small, how can a piece of skin be made into a shawl?" ”

"Sables can only be used to sew clothes by taking the skin from their backs." Li Yu reminded.

"Wouldn't that have less skin on a sable?" Ling'er looked at the dead sable in her hand in disappointment, and measured the usable part of the sable's back with her hand, which was only nine inches and thirty centimeters.

"Don't be discouraged, don't we have hundreds of people? It's okay to go together! "Li Yu is not disappointed, the hundreds of people he brought can't all be around to escort him.

Under the expectant gaze of the two women, Li Yu sent out all the hundreds of guards who were good at archery, specializing in hunting sables, and after hunting back, they bought them at the market price. Send more than 200 people, and it shouldn't be a problem to hunt ten today.

Fortunately, the surrounding area of Anshi had already been carefully searched by Li Yu, and there were no Goguryeo rebels operating in this area, so there was no need to worry about safety, otherwise Li Yujue would not have taken the risk of running out to hunt.

Xue Ne and Li Yexu have been competing, when they found the traces of the black bear's activities, the two of them competed to see who could hunt the bear first, and the bet was that the loser hunted a tiger skin for the winner, and after a while, they rode a horse and disappeared from the forest.

"Hey, come and see." The apricot cat beckoned Li Yu and the others who were looking for prey under a wood.

"Sister Xing'er has found something good?" Ling'er, who has always been interested in good things, rushed to Xing'er's side and asked curiously.

"Tigers have stayed here before."

"Ahh Tiger, let's get out of here! Mei'er, who walked in, was startled when she heard it, she has always been timid and has a natural fear of large beasts such as tigers, and when she heard that there were tigers nearby, the first thought in her mind was to leave quickly.

"Mei'er don't be afraid, there are dozens of guards from my sister and Jun Xun, and there are tigers nearby who don't dare to approach us." Xin'er stepped forward to comfort the timid Mei'er and smiled absently.

"Fortunately, Xue Ne and Li Yexu chased the black bear, otherwise this tiger would have to belong to them!" Apricot snickered with joy, a majestic tiger skin beckoning to herself. He immediately checked his equipment, removed a stone bow from his horse, and searched for traces left on the ground when the tiger left.

"Apricot, where are you going?" Seeing Xing'er's strange behavior, Xin'er hurriedly asked.

"I'm going tiger hunting!" Without waiting for Xin'er to answer, Xing'er eagerly burrowed into the jungle.

"This little girl is simply unbelievably thick!" Xin'er was a little angry, Xing'er was a girl who went to hunt tigers with some ability, which was ridiculous.

"Where's the apricot?" Hearing Xing'er's voice, I thought it was something good, and finally got out of the dense forest with the guards around me, but found that except for Xin'er and the three daughters, Xing'er was gone.

"Sister Xing'er went to hunt tigers!"

"Aha?" Li Yu's eyes widened and he looked at the three girls incredulously, "Ridiculous, few adult men dare to go hunting tigers alone, and she dares to go as a little girl?" One shot was killed by the tiger. ”

Li Yu was furious, this girl has a good archery technique, and her martial arts are also good, and the arrogant ones don't know the southeast and northwest. Usually, the school practice is to fight small animals in the wild, round up wild boars and other relatively dangerous animals, which is directly in the dense forest to kill tigers. The time and place are all on the side of the tiger, isn't this going to deliver food?

Yu Chengzhi doesn't know where to go hunting, Li Yu is now surrounded by dozens of guards, and there is only one civilian official office to participate in the military Xue Yao. But fortunately, there is no distinction between civil and military affairs in the Tang Dynasty, martial arts prevail, and he is the eldest son of Xue Yuanchao, the prime minister of Longshuo and Linde, and his family has his own time and money to practice martial arts.

Xue Yao checked the traces left by the tiger under the tree, and judged the time when the tiger left this place based on his years of experience in hunting with Li Yu and others.

"Your Highness, the tiger will not leave for more than five or six hours, let's hurry up and catch up with Xing'er, otherwise there will be danger."

"Huh? Isn't Sister Xing'er going to meet a tiger? Ling'er and Mei'er were worried when they heard this, and their faces were anxious.

Xin'er had a headache and said, "Xing'er is really reckless, Jun?" ”

"Let's go, catch up with Apricot immediately!"

Li Yu led the people to follow the traces left by Xing'er, Xing'er, Xing'er, when I find you back, see if I don't punish you well, I'm too bold.

"How is there a big river?" Apricot followed the tiger's tracks, but stopped by the river, and there was no trace of the tiger.

After looking by the river for a long time, I didn't find that there was a place to cross the river, and I looked at the big river that was several zhang wide, and I couldn't see the bottom of the river at a glance, which finally made Xing'er timid and didn't dare to cross the river in danger.

For human beings, what cannot be seen through will eventually make people feel more frightened than what they can see.

"Oh my God, after looking for a long time, this tiger has crossed the river!" Xing'er looked up to the sky and sighed, the tiger skin was gone, and she was disappointed.

"The slave's tiger skin cloak!"

"Stop!" Li Yu stopped the search team, and his eyes were firmly fixed on Conglin on his left.

Xin'er and the others were a little strange, how to stop after walking well. However, when everyone saw Li Yu's serious expression, they all clenched the weapons in their hands and looked around, in this dense forest, anything could happen, so they couldn't help but be nervous.

"What did Jun Xun find?"

"Just now, a white figure flashed from the left-hand one through the forest."

"Is there anyone?" Xue Yaoyi's first idea may be the remnants of the Goguryeo rebels, after the first battle of Da'anshan, there were not a few Goguryeo defeated soldiers who fled into the mountains and forests, and later the Tang army's suppression of the Goguryeo rebels in other places, more escaped into the mountains and forests after being caught, maybe a few touched the vicinity of Anshi.

"Not like that!" Li Yu shook his head, it is impossible for people to crawl and walk, and it is not so fast, that thing doesn't seem to be big.

Out of curiosity, Li Yu got off the horse and pulled out the long knife in his hand and quietly touched it to the left hand.

Seeing this, Xue Yao and the others dismounted and pulled out their long knives in order to protect Li Yu, and consciously surrounded Li Yu, while a few others opened their bows and pulled strings, and fired arrows at the target that appeared if there was a slight accident.

The long knife pointed forward, Li Yu cautiously pushed aside the woods and searched forward, Xin'er and the three daughters followed Li Yu closely, Xue Yao was on the side, and the other guards fanned like a small hillside and surrounded it.

"Jun Xun, there's something white in that bush!" Xin'er saw a motionless white object in the bushes in front of her and reminded Li Yu.

"See!" Li Yu motioned to the guards on the left and right sides to touch it up to see what it was.

Two guards crept over, and the five guards behind them opened their bows and aimed.

The two guards suddenly sped up and rushed to push aside the bushes and froze as they raised their knives at the white unidentified object.

"What's the situation?" Xue Yao asked.

The two turned around with strange expressions and said, "It's two little tigers." ”

"Huh?" made it so secretive, everyone touched it like a big enemy, and it turned out to be two little tigers.

The two guards picked up the little tiger in the bushes one by one, and immediately surprised the others that it was two little white tigers.

"Wow! It's actually a little white tiger. The three girls were pleasantly surprised, and quickly ran up to take the two-foot-long tiger cub from the guards, and the cute and cute ones were cute.

The guards breathed a sigh of relief, and the two tiger cubs thought they might be remnants of the Goguryeo rebels.

The white tiger is one of the four divine beasts, the main killing, and it also symbolizes auspiciousness in Chinese culture. Li Yu was not only happy when he saw the two little white tigers, but also thought that they could be used to make a fuss.

The white tiger is produced by genetic mutation, which has always been hard to find, and it is rare for a person to encounter a white tiger in his life. It is precisely because of the treasure of the white tiger that the white tiger was constantly deified in the totem worship of the ancients, and finally became one of the four divine beasts in China, also known as one of the four spirit beasts.

In ancient times, no one talked about any genetic mutations, and the only divine beast that could be seen in the world among the four divine beasts like the white tiger, its appearance was often an auspicious one.

"Aid to God Deed" said: "The king is virtuous to birds and beasts, and the white tiger moves." ”

Jin "Zhongxing Zhengxiang" said: "The king is benevolent but not harmful, then the white tiger will see." The white tiger is also a benevolent beast. Tiger and white, like snow, no miscellaneous hair, howling is the wind. In the past, the country of SX was called, and the white tiger responded. ”

"Feeling the Essence Fu" cloud: "Will be Xing, the White Tiger will play the dynasty." ”

"The Elephant of the Earth" said: "The Holy King feels the period and rises, then there is a white tiger in the morning, and thunder in the four fields." ”

"Jun Xun, this is still a pair of male and female white tigers!"

"Oh!" Li Yu was a little surprised, it is lucky to meet a white tiger in the world, and it is even more precious to meet two, or a young tiger will make a lot of money, or a male and a female. Li Yu doesn't know what to use to describe his current mood.

This pair of white tigers can make a big fuss, Xue Yao thought proudly in his heart, and used his own literary color to write an article for the upcoming southern expedition to inspire the army.

"Oh my God, White Tiger!" Xing'er, who walked back, came to the team, and when she saw a pair of little white tigers in the hands of Li Yu and Xin'er, she was stunned.

The tiger hunt failed, but when he turned around, he found that Xun Jun and others, who had no interest in tiger hunting, picked up two Xizhen's little white tigers, and the whole person was not calm.

"Give me a hug!" Xing'er snatched the little white tiger directly from Xin'er's hand, and curiously touched the soft fur of the little white tiger, squeaking in surprise.

"Xing'er, didn't you go tiger hunting? Why did you come back so soon? Xin'er also asked angrily.

"Maybe I was scared back by a look from the tiger, hehe!" Ling'er and Mei'er covered their mouths and snickered.

Xing'er glanced at Ling'er and Mei'er, "The tiger crossed the river, and I couldn't find a place to cross the river and came back." ”

"It's good to come back, next time you dare to go hunting tigers alone, be careful that this king forbids you for five months." Li Yu reprimanded seriously, Xing'er pouted and the boss was unhappy, but he didn't dare to refute, so he could only play with the little white tiger in his hands.

"When the little white tiger grows up, wouldn't it be a more majestic cloak than ordinary tiger skins when the tiger skin is skinned?"

"Huh?" Li Yu, Xin'er, and the surrounding people looked at Xing'er in surprise.

"Whew." The little white tiger seemed to feel that Xing'er had no good intentions towards it, and kept twisting his body to break free from Xing'er's hands.

Mei'er snatched the little white tiger from Xing'er's hand, Ling'er protected her in front of her, and made it clear that she was guarding against Xing'er, daring to move it to make you look good.

Finding that the three sisters, Xun Jun, and the guards around looked at her with strange eyes, Xing'er laughed a little at a loss: "Haha, the slave family is joking!" ”

In the future, Xing'er can't be allowed to touch the two little white tigers, Li Yu and Xin'er thought so.
