Section 31 Diverting the Tiger from the Mountain

I don't know how long I slept, I opened my eyes and found that it was dark, I raised my arm, pressed the light button of the watch, and found that the big electronic screen showed 22:07, that's right, this watch was also bought two days ago, 20 yuan, with a light, high-end atmosphere and grade.

Through the moonlight, I could see that the fifth brother had returned, and I asked, "How is the fifth brother?" ”

The fifth brother bought a pass: "Good news or bad news, which one to listen to first?" ”

"None of them listen." I unscrewed a bottle of water and said, "I can even guess this mentally retarded, good news, I'm sure the thousand-year-old He Shou Wu is real." As for the bad news, it should be that the Tiger Demon is still around there, right? ”

The fifth brother showed a suspicious expression: "Huh? How did you suddenly become so smart? ”

"It's like I've been stupid." I was a little unhappy.

The ugly ghost asked, "What about the Tiger Demon Dao?" ”

"I don't know, I didn't dare to approach." The fifth brother showed an expression of reminiscence: "But the tiger has neat hair all over his body, and his eyes have a fierce light, so he doesn't look good." ”

The ugly ghost paced back and forth, thought for a few seconds, and said: "It will definitely go out to forage, we will act while it is foraging, and I will try to gain time when the time comes, and you will also try to get He Shou Wu within ten minutes, so as to avoid a head-on conflict with it, otherwise it will be Xiaolong who is unlucky." ”

The fifth brother nodded and said, "I took a look at the position where He Shou Wu grows, and it takes about ten minutes. ”

"Okay, that's it."

Seeing that they had decided to divide five by two, I hurriedly said, "Wait, this is my life, can such a simple plan work?" ”

"Sometimes the simpler the plan, the easier it is to succeed." The fourth brother, who has always been taciturn, said......

……………………

As the saying goes, the minority obeys the majority, and since they all think the plan is feasible, I have no objection, and I don't have anything to do anyway. And it's all here, it's impossible to turn back, you can only gamble with your life once! If you don't succeed, you will be a benevolent! Under the leadership of Xue Yuanliang, we quietly touched the vicinity of the cliff, and the ugly ghost went to the front to observe the situation, and we stayed in the rear to wait for news.

It wasn't until the sun rose that the ugly ghost finally floated back and said, "The tiger has left, it should be out to forage, you act immediately, I will hold it back, at least ten minutes!" After saying that, the ugly ghost quickly floated into the distance, and I gritted my teeth and quickly approached the cliff under the leadership of the fifth brother!

When I came to the vicinity of the cliff, I could still find some blood stains on the ground, I quickly tied the climbing rope to a nearby tree, and the other end was tied to the protector, and after a few pulls, after making sure it was firm, I went down the cliff! Actually, I'm afraid of heights, but at this time, I can only bite the bullet! My palms are sweaty! The fifth brother floated next to him and said, "Don't be nervous! Don't shake your hands! ”

"No, no, no shaking!" I was so scared that my voice changed!

"Hold on to the rope, it's almost there...... Stop, fix the protector. ”

After I fixed the protector, I found a piece of oblique insertion in the rock crevice of the cliff, there are very long vine leaves, according to the fifth brother's instructions, I quickly dug up, it took 12 minutes, and finally excavated the whole He Shou Wu, this plant is very large, the roots have grown very thick, about the thickness of my wrist, put the things away, I hurriedly climbed to the top!

However, before he could climb a few times, he heard a tiger roar! I almost peed out! If the rope is cut by a tiger, I will have to explain it today! Originally, I was exhausted and climbed very slowly, but at this time, I was so frightened that I burst out with potential, as if I had inexhaustible strength, I climbed quickly, and at the same time said: "Fifth brother, go up and see the situation!" ”

After a while, the fifth brother came back and said, "It's okay, the tiger demon hasn't bitten the rope yet, but you move quickly, the ugly ghost can't stop it!" ”

"Good!" I said yes and climbed harder.

Finally, I put one hand on the edge of the cliff, and was about to climb up, when I heard the ugly ghost say, "Go down!" ”

I'll you grandma! I finally climbed up, and you let me go down? I only heard the ugly ghost say: "This tiger demon is extremely intelligent, it has already discovered us, but it didn't make a move, but deliberately left, wanting to borrow our hands to bring He Shou Wu up!" After all, the cliff can't be dug by itself! As soon as you climb up, you'll be killed by it! I'm just a spirit, I can't stop it! ”

Sure enough, the tiger with black stripes on a white background roared at me and pounced directly!

I made a trough on the spot, and hurriedly fell down again, stepping on the boulder that was stuck diagonally into the cliff, and breathed a sigh of relief with my back against the cliff. Although I didn't die for the time being, I wasn't happy at all, because I wasn't He Shou Wu, and I would die of thirst if I stood here in a few days, which was cool, although I knew that I was backing, but I didn't expect it to be so much! This death is too painful, it is better to be slapped to death by the tiger demon with a claw!

After a while, the ugly ghost also floated down, and his figure was a little dim, obviously injured!

I hurriedly asked, "Ugly ghost, what's going on up there?" ”

The ugly ghost shook his head: "That tiger demon is quite high, although my path is not low, but I am only a spirit body, and I can't cause much damage to it." It's safe to stay here for the time being, and we'll think of another way. ”

I almost want to scold my mother! Momby! I just said that this plan is too simple, and it will definitely not work! But they strongly agreed, and now it's good! I can only stand on this cliff and wait to die! Perhaps many years later, someone will find a white skeleton standing on the cliff, holding an air-dried He Shou Wu in his arms......

The fifth brother said safely: "It's okay, no matter how powerful the tiger demon is, you have to eat, you just stand here, see who consumes whom, as long as it leaves, let's climb up." The tiger demon has very high intelligence, it wants He Shou Wu, and it will not bite the rope. ”

This is really standing and talking without a backache, just now in order to reduce the weight, I threw the backpack directly on it, at this time I don't even have a bottle of water, I'm afraid I can't hold on for a day! The fifth brother was still beside him and continued to be safe: "It's okay Xiaolong, after you die, the fifth brother will cover you, and there will definitely be no ghost who dares to bully you!" ”

I just want to tell him one thing: fuck your uncle!!

But in order to save energy, I didn't say this sentence. Instead, I stood on a boulder with my back against the cliff, and a gust of wind blew, and I lived like a big sb......

……………………

And just like that, two days passed.

I was still sticking to the cliff, my lips were chapped, my face was pale, I hadn't slept for two days and two nights, my eyes were black, and I said weakly: "No, I'm going to die of thirst, I'm going to eat He Shou Wu." ”

"Nope." The ugly ghost said: "The raw He Shou Wu is poisonous, and you will die completely after eating it, not to mention that it is not until the last moment, what is the hurry?" ”

Of course you're not in a hurry if you're a ghost, but I'm thirsty and uncomfortable, worse than killing me! Just when I insisted on eating, I suddenly heard the tiger roar above! My heart is broken! Could it be that the tiger demon is waiting impatiently and is ready to bite off the rope? In fact, I also hold on to the last glimmer of hope in my heart, hoping that it can go out to forage for food, so that I can have a chance to escape, but once the rope is bitten, my vitality will be completely cut off!

At this time, the ugly ghost floated up, and after a minute or so, he floated back again, and said, "There is salvation." ”

During this minute, the roar of a tiger was heard from time to time, and the cry of another animal was very high-pitched, but I could not make out what it was. I hurriedly asked, "What's wrong?" What's going on up there? ”

"A fox came, and the tiger fought, and the battle was fierce, and both sides were injured."

Can a fox beat a tiger? Didn't the fifth brother say that the tiger was invincible a few days ago? The existence of the air in the middle of the day, how could it be injured by a fox? Seeing the confusion in my eyes, the ugly ghost said, "That fox is also a demon, and his Taoism seems to be higher than that of a tiger!" ”

In my heart, I secretly prayed: fight, fight, both of them are dead! I stood on the cliff like a fool for two days, and I had the heart to jump, and then hope was ignited again, and I rolled my eyes and said, "Ugly ghost, don't go up again, if you arouse their vigilance, if you don't use all your strength, you can't make them lose both." ”

"Yes." The ugly ghost nodded: "I hid the yin qi when I went up just now. ”

The two animals seemed to fight fiercely, and the roars and whispers came into my ears from time to time, and my heart went to my throat! He kept praying, "Both are going to die, both are going to die." ”

Gradually, the fighting became quieter, and the roaring became muffled, and after waiting for about two minutes, there was no movement on it! I couldn't wait for the ugly ghost to go up and check on the situation, and the ugly ghost soon came back and said, "The tiger is dead, and the fox is badly injured." ”

That's great! With excitement on my face, I climbed up the climbing rope! After a lot of effort, I finally climbed up! Then he lay on the ground and didn't want to move! In addition to hunger and cold for the past two days, I stood there in one position, motionless, and my legs were numb!

Fortunately, the tiger demon is dead, with multiple wounds on his body, and his fur is stained red with blood!

Not far on the ground was a gray-haired fox, which had grown very large, but was also seriously injured and could not get up at this time.

After lying down for a minute, I stood up and walked to my backpack, took out a bottle of water and drank it, my already smoking throat was moistened and instantly felt a lot more comfortable. After drinking the water, I walked over to the injured fox, and the ugly ghost hurriedly stopped me and said, "Don't go over, that demon is very powerful, even if it is seriously injured, it may have the ability to kill you." ”

"It's okay, I don't know why, but I feel that this fox is very kind......"
