Chapter 44: Out of the Mountains
The little tree had been carefully cared for by the tiger, but now he was going to swallow it.
The tiger slowly raises its paws, plucks one fruit, throws it in its mouth and swallows it, and then picks the second fruit and throws it into its mouth as well.
Soon both fruits were swallowed by him, and the aroma in the grotto filled the entire space.
After swallowing two fruits, the tiger stretched out his paws, grabbed the small tree, and gently lifted it, and the whole small tree was pulled out by him.
The small tree is more than a man tall, with a very thin trunk, only as thick as a finger, and a few small branches, but many leaves.
The tiger looked at the little tree, opened its mouth and began to devour from the top of the tree, and as soon as he went down, the whole small tree was swallowed by him by a third.
Then the trunk and roots were stuffed into his mouth, chewed for a while, and then swallowed into his stomach.
As soon as he swallowed the whole tree, he felt his body slowly heat up, and at first it was fine, but then it got hotter and hotter, and he felt like he was staying in the fire.
The tiger didn't know what was wrong with him, he had never been so hot in his life, he was running around in the grotto, but it didn't take any heat off of it.
He looked at the water in the pool, jumped in, and suddenly felt a little more comfortable.
At this moment, I saw that the water in the pool began to mist, and it didn't take long for bubbles to bubble, and the water in the whole pool rose.
It didn't take long to see that the water in the pool slowly decreased, some of it was evaporated by the heat, and some of it was absorbed by the tiger's body, and in this way, the water in the whole pool quickly dried up, and there was not a drop left.
The tiger jumped out of the pool, and at this moment he felt much more comfortable, his body was not hot, he felt his whole body relaxed, and his spirit was calm.
Slowly, the tiger felt a wave of sleepiness hit him, he wanted to sleep well, he lay on the ground and soon fell asleep.
........................
In the valley, after eating wild boar, everyone went to sleep, and they were already exhausted after a long day's trekking, and everyone wanted to have a good rest.
I have to say that the grass house and grass bed built by Xie He and others are not bad, and Ye Tianchen lay on it and fell asleep quickly.
Early in the morning of the second day, everyone got up and got something to eat and set off again, although the scenery here is very good, but it is not a place to stay for a long time.
Everyone rushed all the way out of the mountain range, and encountered many jackals, tigers and leopards on the way, but they were easily defeated by them, Ye Tianchen was glad that he did not encounter the existence of a tiger again.
Three days later, the terrain in the mountain range gradually became familiar, and everyone walked out of the depths of the mountain range and came to the edge of the mountain range, and they were all overjoyed.
Coming to the edge of the mountain meant that they were out of danger and meant that they could return to their family soon.
"If you go in this direction, it should be the entrance to the Qinghe Tomb. A student from Tianyang Academy pointed in one direction and said.
"Well, that's right. "Xie Hedao.
"I'm going to go and meet with the elders, what are you going to do. Yang Baitian asked.
Xie Hedao: "Naturally, we have to report to the elders. ”
Wang Wudao said: "My sister went to see the elders, and I will go back to the family first." ”
Xiao Yu'er looked at Wang Qing and said, "Miss Lao Wang told my housekeeper on my behalf, I'll go back first." ”
Wang Qing said: "Yes, Miss Xiao will go back first." ”
"I also went back, and I didn't go to see the elders. Sun Hongyu turned around and left.
Sun Jianping saw Sun Hongyu leaving, but he didn't stay, he followed, he didn't dare to stay here alone, after all, there was a Yang Baitian who wanted to kill him.
Ye Tianchen said: "One day, you go and meet the Great Elder, and Youxue and I will go back first." ”
"Okay. "Ye has the way of heaven.
Everyone dispersed, Tianyang Academy and Wang Qingye and Tianyang Baitian went to the entrance of the Qinghe Tomb to find the elders together, while the rest of the people who returned to the family took different paths.
This is already the edge of the mountain range, not far from Tianyang City, most of them have come to the edge of the mountain range to experience, and there is more than one way back, they are still familiar with this.
At this time, only Ye Tianchen and Ye Youxue were left here, Ye Tianchen said: "You know the way home!"
"Of course I do. "Ye Youxue Road.
Ye Tianchen said: "Then you lead the way!"
Ye Youxue walked in front, and the two walked out of the mountain range and went to Tianyang City.
........................
At this time, inside the tiger's den, the tiger took a few glances at the home where he had lived for many years, and finally turned around and walked out.
I saw that there were some changes in the tiger's body at this time, his body hair was red, his whole body was red, and there was no trace of variegation, but now his hair was a little gray.
Although this gray is not very obvious, if you don't look carefully, you can't see it at all, but it is not as red and beautiful as before.
And his whole body is bigger than before, looking stronger and more powerful, and has more visual impact on people.
In the past few days, he has endured a lot of torture, and his body has been hot and cold, and he has been uncomfortable in every way.
When it's hot, he can find a pool or a small lake to jump into, there are many water sources here, and he is naturally familiar with it after staying here for many years, but it is not too difficult to solve.
But when it was cold, he had no choice but to support himself until the cold receded.
He had never experienced this kind of tricky cold, it was not like the cold that became cold due to the change of weather, but the cold that emanated from the inside of the body, from the bone marrow.
This cold appeared eighteen times, and each time it made him feel painful, and each time he thought he would be crushed to death by this cold, but fortunately he persevered every time.
Every time the cold hit, his hatred for Ye Tianchen deepened, he felt that if Ye Tianchen hadn't intercepted the fruit, he wouldn't have rashly swallowed the fruit tree, and if he hadn't swallowed the fruit tree, he wouldn't have suffered this sin.
He secretly swore that if he could survive this catastrophe, he would definitely break Ye Tianchen's body into ten thousand pieces, and he would definitely let the other party suffer a hundred times more than himself.
He suffered for three days in the agony of hot and cold, and it was not until the third day that the hot and cold breath receded and did not appear, and he was freed from this hellish pain.
