Big Tiger Ridge

"After the new rain in the empty mountains, the weather is late in autumn. The bright moon shines among the pines, and the clear spring stone is upstream. The bamboo noise returns to the Huannu, and the lotus moves the fishing boat. Feel free to rest in spring, and the kings and grandchildren can stay. ”

"We don't have raccoons here, butchers and hunters are about the same." Zhu Qizhen corrected Li Xian.

Still in that stone pit, the peeled wild boar is placed in the water and washed by the mountain spring water, and there is a tiger next to it, and Fan Zhong is carefully skinning it.

"Old Xiong, you owe Lao Guo a life!" Fan Zhong was busy with his hands and did not forget to remind Xiong Zongli.

Xiong Zongli's face was full of palpitations, and the thrilling scene just now made him not calm down now.

He was concentrating on studying a herb when he suddenly heard Guo Mao's shout.

Originally, there were some surprises, how could Guo Mao, who was usually steady, shout today, but when he found the tiger, he finally knew what made Guo Mao lose color.

Xiong Zongli climbed back to the mountain road with a roll, the fishy wind behind him had arrived, and he didn't care about his demeanor, Xiong Zongli exerted himself everywhere, and then he rolled forward a little more along the inertia, and he was able to escape from under the giant claw.

Just when Guo Mao arrived at the critical moment, facing the steel knife in the tiger's hand, it was three consecutive slashes, and his tiger's mouth was shaken and painful, but the tiger's head only flowed a little blood, and he was not seriously injured by these three knives.

The tiger shook his head, and the fierceness in the tiger's eyes was even more victorious. "Whew!" The tiger roars in the mountains and forests, and the wind rises suddenly.

Xiong Zongli was pulled by Guo Mao and had just taken two steps, the tiger flew in, seeing that he couldn't dodge, Guo Mao hurriedly pushed Xiong Zongli away, and put both hands against the back of the knife to prepare to resist the tiger's pounce.

The tiger's front paw pounced on the blade, and under the pain of the claw, he violently swung his right paw and slapped it on Guo Mao's chest, and the tower-like man was slapped to the ground with a claw, and a mouthful of blood spurted out when he opened his mouth.

The tiger also changed its target, and rushed towards Guo Mao, who fell to the ground, Guo Mao stood up, the steel knife in his hand went straight up, and with the strong inertia of the tiger's pounce, a huge wound was cut on the tiger's abdomen.

"Old Bear, what do you want? Hurry up and bandage Lao Guo! Fan Zhong looked at Xiong Zongli, who was stunned, and said with some complaints.

"Oh, good! Good! Xiong Zongli hurriedly responded.

Zhu Qizhen also saw that Xiong Zongli was absent-minded, and knew that Fan Zhong was a person who was five big and three coarse, and it was easy to embarrass people when he spoke, so he grabbed the conversation and asked, "How is Guo Mao's injury?" ”

Xiong Zongli had already wrapped the blood on Guo Mao's chest, and replied seriously: "Your Majesty, fortunately, Commander Guo has made his body strong, although one of the tiger's claws is heavy, but the ribs are not broken. ”

(Protect wildlife!) I made it up, don't take it seriously! ）

Zhu Qizhen nodded, and asked with some doubts: "It stands to reason that the mountain road is on the periphery of the forest, and this tiger is not all foraging in the deep mountains, why did we encounter it so coincidentally today." ”

Fan Zhong pointed to the dead pig on the ground and said: "I guess it's because of this, the tiger's nose is much smarter than the dog's nose, and as soon as the smell of blood appears, this unlucky king will be hooked." ”

Zhu Qizhen nodded thoughtfully, always unstable in his heart, and asked, "Then is this still safe?" ”

"Hehe, Childe, you don't know anything. As the saying goes, one mountain cannot tolerate two tigers, unless there is one male and one female! This beast has a strong sense of territory, and there will be no two tigers in the same place unless it is mating season, so you can rest assured! Fan Zhong said firmly.

"When did the tigers mate?" Zhu Qizhen asked with some curiosity.

Fan Zhong's hand stopped suddenly, looked at Zhu Qizhen a little stiffly, and said, "My Ming tiger, except for the slave Gandusi, does not seem to have a fixed mating time......

Zhu Qizhen was stunned in place, the wind was getting stronger and stronger in the autumn night, blowing everyone's hearts were hairy, Jin Qi was even more timid, seeing the hideous tiger's head, his body shook unconsciously.

"Childe, otherwise, let's hurry up, bring dry food, and we won't go hungry on the road." Li Xian swallowed his saliva and suggested.

Zhu Qizhen also thinks it makes sense, wild boars and tigers are so cute, how can they have the heart to eat?

"Get in the car, you're on your way, you must get out of this big tiger ridge before dawn." Zhu Qizhen made a quick decision.

"But this, hey! All right. Son, can I get you a tiger fur and then walk? Fan Zhong looked at the endgame that had already passed half of the progress, and was still a little unwilling to leave like this.

Zhu Qizhen's eyes widened, and his face looked a little scary in the firelight, Fan Zhong didn't dare to bargain, so he hurriedly put down his work, rushed in the stream twice, and caught up with the carriage.

"Drive!"

Fan Zhong drove the carriage, and the group quickly left this treasure place.

"Woohoo! Whew! Whew! ”

I have reached the foot of the mountain and suddenly heard a strong wind, and the sound of the wind is mixed with the mournful sound of the tiger, which continues to echo in the mountain.

"It's dangerous!" Zhu Qizhen wiped the cold sweat on his head.

Since passing the big tiger ridge, all the way has not encountered any beasts blocking the road, all the way smoothly through Nanyang Mansion, Xiangyang Mansion, Jingzhou Mansion, Changde Mansion, and then through the Dongting Lake waterway into Changsha Mansion, along the waterway all the way south from Hengzhou Mansion ashore, through Chenzhou, and finally after half a month of trekking through the mountains and rivers into the territory of Shaozhou Mansion, officially came to Guangdong.

Shaozhou, named after the famous mountain Shaoshi Mountain of Danxia, took the name of Shaoshi and changed Donghengzhou to Shaozhou, and then followed by successive dynasties. When Qujiang County was established in the sixth year of the Yuan Dynasty, Shaoguan was the county governor.

At this moment, the figures around him are weaving, and they have already entered the city of Shaozhou Mansion, and there are cries of "beautiful boys" and "beautiful girls" everywhere.

"This Lechang taro pork hand pot, the aroma of the taro and the aroma of taro are integrated, it is really a unique delicacy."

Zhu Qizhen recalled the food he had eaten at noon, couldn't help but sigh, and then said with hope on his face:

"I don't know what else to eat in this Shaozhou Mansion, it's really exciting."

Since meeting the tiger, Xiong Zongli has been silent a lot along the way, and at this time, he heard Zhu Qizhen's self-talk, and couldn't help but answer: "Fujian people." ”

Ignoring the question marks that popped up on Li Xian's heads, Zhu Qizhen laughed, and the ridicule of later generations turned out to be so early.

The mood was relaxed, and the feet walked fast, and after a long time, Zhu Qizhen and his party were already far away from the city gate.

There are many mountains and rivers in Shaozhou Mansion, a Wujiang River passes through the city, and there is a stone bridge not far away, which is also convenient for everyone to pass through the carriage.

Coming to the center of the city, Shaozhou Mansion, which is a transportation hub, has a large number of merchants from all over the world. Although the accent is complex, it is mainly Cantonese and Hakka. As for the official dialect of the imperial court, it was only used as a daily language in the official government, and it was not common among the common people. Fortunately, there is Xiong Zongli's translation, otherwise it would be a bit difficult.
