Chapter 678: Encounter with a Tiger at Night
The north wind was blowing, and there was chaos between the heavens and the earth. The war horse had some difficulty running, and Liu Haoxuan finally caught up with him. The two men were too tired to ride their horses for a day, and their horses had been running for a day, so they certainly didn't have to be more tired.
Liu Haoxuan was bumpy and the whole person was not good, but he didn't dare to give any more opinions. Just follow him seriously and honestly.
Liu Yu ran for more than ten miles, the war horses were wheezing, the mountain beams were full of snow and fallen leaves, the trees were forested, but the grass was not bad. The weather in the Southern Dynasties is not too cold, but on this mountain, there is also snow drifting, and the air is biting.
Liu Yu galloped to a leeward col, and the stream was dark but very clean. He jumped off his horse, threw off the reins, and let the horse go freely.
Liu Haoxuan hurriedly took down the marching tent from his horse and set it up at the col. The marching tents they brought with them were very simple, but they were very practical, and they were necessary for the army to fight. Originally, the weather was a little better, and they didn't need this at all. The two of them can just find a random mountain wall and sleep back to back for the night. But this is deep in the mountains and mountains, and the snow is deep, not to mention Liu Haoxuan, even Liu Yu himself does not dare to come nonsense.
If you really sleep in the north wind and snow all night, I am afraid that you will not be able to see the sunrise of the day.
I had to freeze to death.
Liu Haoxuan is a good hand at setting up a marching tent, and perhaps he also personally set up a tent for Liu Yu in the army. After he set it up, Liu Yu had not yet loosened from the fatigue of rushing. The two men entered the marching tent, cleaned up a little, and then brought out dry rations.
Liu Haoxuan lit a fire, Liu Yu took a kettle and filled it with some clean snow, and just took it and boiled it on the bonfire.
The kettle is pottery, and it doesn't burn very quickly. The two of them sat in the tent, fiddling with the bonfire outside the tent from time to time, and slowly warmed their bodies. When they took the branches and skewered the dry food and roasted it, slowly tore it off and put it in their mouths, the water was boiling.
One person shared a cup, carefully ate the dry food, and suddenly felt that all the limbs and bones were warm.
Liu Haoxuan turned his head and smiled, "Big brother, now we are really soldiers, on this barren mountain and wild mountain, blowing the north wind and drinking hot water, I don't feel wronged, but I feel really fucking comfortable." ”
Huanfeng Lou was pampered, and when he came out to fight, he also trained a copper-headed iron arm. In the cold wind of this snowy night, there was a heroic emotion.
Liu Yu smiled slightly, and didn't say much.
He made this trip, but he didn't have many opportunities to enjoy the scenery and sigh about life. The whole body and mind are looking for the Valley of Ten Thousand Poisons and determining the identity of the child.
Liu Haoxuan saw that he didn't want to say more, so he closed his mouth. The two of them had eaten and drunk almost, and the bonfire was dimmed a little, and it didn't burn until dawn.
Liu Haoxuan got up and said, "Big brother, you rest first, I'll go find some dry firewood." Barren mountains and mountains, jackals and beasts are the most, if there is no fire, we are afraid of suffering. ”
Liu Yu grabbed him, his face was serious, "You come to sleep first, I'll go pick up dry firewood." ”
He is Lord Taishou, a general, and the eldest brother of Huanfeng Tower, how can he go to collect dry firewood? Instead, he asked Liu Haoxuan to rest first, Liu Haoxuan couldn't hang up, and hurriedly waved his hand, "No, no, big brother, you're tired for a day, let's rest first." I'll come as long as I go, and I won't be able to delay long. ”
"You sleep." Liu Yu was too lazy to talk nonsense, so he pulled Liu Haoxuan into the tent, he stood up by himself, and strode towards the dark place.
Vaguely hearing that Liu Haoxuan still wanted to follow, he stood still in the darkness and snow, and said coldly: "Since you know that there are many fierce beasts and jackals in the barren mountains and mountains, you should guard our things well." If we do encounter a beast, where can we sleep tonight? ”
Liu Haoxuan was stunned for a moment, and honestly retreated into the tent.
The bonfire is blazing, the bright red flames, licking the clay pot of boiling water, and the water is curling little by little. His eyes flashed, and he turned around and walked towards the depths of the forest.
It was indeed dark, but with the snow, I could see the same. As far as the eye can see, there are black trees and white snow. He remembered that the mountains were deep and the forests were barren, and he didn't want to go any deeper, so he picked up dry firewood around the col.
However, it is also far from the campfire and tents.
Because it was soaked in snow, the dry firewood turned into wet firewood, and it was slightly heavy. He didn't care much about the weight, so he picked up a large bundle and walked back with the firewood.
Walking back, I suddenly heard a faint sound of footsteps behind me. The voice was very soft, and it didn't look like a human voice.
At least, whether it is him or Liu Haoxuan, he walks in great strides, and he is very steady and powerful. The voice he heard at this moment was very different from theirs.
He immediately stood still.
Stopped, his eyes flashed, his face was cold, he carefully distinguished the slight footsteps, but he was stunned.
Without the sound of his footsteps, there was no such strange sound. There is silence, only the wind blows through the pine trees. He was stunned, and his hands holding the firewood clenched tightly.
He still didn't move, but his boots, which were buried in the snow, were slowly moving. Move into a position that is most convenient for attack and defense.
However, he pointed his ears and listened carefully, but still did not hear anything. The sound of squirming footsteps seemed to have completely disappeared from his world. He never doubted his instincts and hearing, and certainly did not believe that everything was his hallucination.
This place is one or two hundred meters away from Liu Haoxuan's location, which is the farthest time. If there is anything unusual, he has to be careful with one person.
He slowed his breathing, turned his head coldly, first to the left, then to the right, and saw nothing. He slowly let go of his hands, threw the firewood on the ground, and turned around quickly.
However, it was too late.
A pair of green eyes accompanied by a huge body pounced on him, and approached him in the blink of an eye. The mouth of the blood basin was wide open, enough to fit his entire head.
The colorful, majestic body seemed to be a huge wall, overwhelming his whole person.
"Whew......"
An eye-catching tiger.
A tiger with eyes that has been closed due to heavy snow, but I am afraid that it has been starved for a long time.
Whistling is a threat, a powerful threat to conquer its prey. Tiger vs. Liu Yu, that is inevitable.
Liu Yu fought on the battlefield, what kind of enemy has never been seen, although he has never seen anyone kill a tiger with his bare hands, but he doesn't believe it, he is the one who died tonight.
In the midst of lightning and fire, he smashed his fist into the tiger's eye, and his whole face suddenly avoided the tiger's mouth, and his right foot flew to kick the tiger's waist and abdomen.
The Tiger is just too big.
It's snowing like this again. I have been hungry for many days, so I choose to attack my prey in the middle of the night.
And he was unfortunate enough to become that prey.
Maybe it was because he had been fighting for many years, and his strength was too great, and the tiger was kicked in the waist and abdomen, as if he had suffered a serious injury, and he couldn't help but howl and stumble slightly. It was so slight, but Liu Yu seized the opportunity, and his right fist smashed into the tiger's eyes again like a huge stone.
The tiger was in pain, and its mouth widened even more, and the smell of the fishy smell made people nauseous. In particular, the saliva of the tiger had dripped down his clothes.
"Whew......" the tiger cried again. I almost wanted to swallow him in one gulp, but unfortunately his resistance was too strong, and he fell into a stalemate for a while.
At the tent, Liu Haoxuan finally heard something and rushed out. Hurriedly running with a torch in hand, I saw Liu Yu competing with the tiger.
He was frightened and anxious, and he screamed, and approached with a torch to drive away the tiger.
