Chapter 41: After-effects

"I said, your daughter saw your wife being bitten to death by a tiger with her own eyes, so she was scared silly!"

As soon as these words came out, Ajuan's father instantly couldn't hold back, looked at the corpse on the ground that was missing most of the head, and not long ago he was discussing exchanging the wild boar he had hunted for a good price, but now it was separated by yin and yang.

"You can kill the tiger, why didn't you strike sooner?"

Hearing this, Zhang Xiaochi was immediately laughed at angrily.

He would not have done such an uncertain thing, after all, once he angered this beast, it would be himself who was unlucky, and the reason why he made the move was entirely because Ajuan's mother sacrificed her life to rescue her daughter, which caused him to think of his parents and feel compassion, and then chose to make a move.

"You mean to blame me?"

"Who don't blame you?"

"You really can't blame Xiaochi for this, if it weren't for him, we might all be more than lucky,"

The village chief stood up to speak for Zhang Xiaochi, and as soon as the village chief's voice fell, others also hurriedly expressed their positions, saying that if there was no Zhang Xiaochi, more people might have to die.

With so many people supporting Zhang Xiaochi, Ajuan's father saw that he couldn't stand up, so he could only choose to shut up, in fact, he also knew in his heart that Zhang Xiaochi could not be blamed for this incident.

The smell of blood at the scene was tangy, the picture was extremely cruel, Zhang Xiaochi was not surprised, but Lin Xiaoxi was the first time to see such a cruel scene, considering Lin Xiaoxi's feelings, Zhang Xiaochi taught the village chief how to deal with the scene, and he walked towards the tiger corpse.

"Come on a few people, go and help Xiaochi carry the tiger back."

The danger was lifted, and the village chief coveted the tiger in his heart, but he understood a truth better, the tiger was killed by Zhang Xiaochi, whether it was morality or strength, he couldn't have the slightest idea about the tiger.

Zhang Xiaochi originally planned to carry the tiger back alone, but since the village chief proposed to let others help, he didn't do it, so as to avoid being too shocking.

After all, this tiger, to say the least, is more than 400 catties.

Everyone had no opinion on the ownership of the tiger, and the village chief selected four strong young men and carried the huge tiger to Zhang Xiaochi's house.

Looking at the tiger corpse lying in the yard, Lin Xiaoxi was a little hindsight, thinking about the bloody scene at the entrance of the village, and suddenly bent over and vomited.

Lin Xiaoxi's reaction was expected by Zhang Xiaochi, he came to her side and gently patted Lin Xiaoxi's back with his hand.

"If you want to vomit, you can vomit for a while."

I think that at the beginning, Zhang Xiaochi experienced this situation for the first time, because his life would be in danger at any time when he participated in the war, his nerves were tense all the time, so he didn't feel abnormal, but after returning to the camp after the mission, he recalled the picture on the battlefield, and the whole person spun around.

Therefore, he knew Lin Xiaoxi's feelings at this time.

Lin Xiaoxi bent over and vomited for a long time, and finally even vomited all the bile, until she couldn't vomit anything, she eased up a little.

"Husband, I'm sorry to disgrace you!"

Lin Xiaoxi's face was pale and his state was very bad, but he still apologized to Zhang Xiaochi guiltily.

"Silly girl, what are you apologies to me?"

"You've done a great job."

Zhang Xiaochi poured a cup of cold white and gave it to Lin Xiaoxi, and then used a shovel to shovel some grass and wood ash from under the stove to cover up the vomit and clean it up, so as to prevent Lin Xiaoxi from smelling and wanting to vomit.

"Go back to the house and rest, just leave it to me here."

Lin Xiaoxi was physically and mentally exhausted, but this time he did not refuse, and dragged his tired body back to the house.

Looking at the huge tiger, Zhang Xiaochi frowned, although the tiger carcass will not be damaged overnight, but if it is sent to be sold one night, it will be much less money.

Under normal circumstances, Zhang Xiaochi can carry the tiger to Qingwa Town alone, but Lin Xiaoxi is resting at this time, and he can't leave at will.

"Forget it, less money is less money."

This tiger bit someone to death, and it was a bit embarrassing for him to eat tiger meat, and after thinking about it, he still didn't use the knife in the end.

At this moment, there was a creak from the second aunt's house next door, and then the door was opened a crack, and the second aunt cautiously poked her head out of it.

"Xiaochi, just now I seemed to hear the tiger coming in the house, and I heard that the tiger was dead, what happened?"

"Second aunt, the tiger is here."

Zhang Xiaochi stretched out his hand and pointed to the tiger carcass lying in the yard and said with a smile.

After being reminded, the second aunt noticed that there was a huge tiger corpse lying in Zhang Xiaochi's yard, and after seeing it clearly, she subconsciously retracted her head and closed the door with a bang.

"Second aunt, this tiger is dead."

Zhang Xiaochi reminded.

"Xiaochi, you didn't lie to me, did you?"

"Why am I lying to you?"

After waiting for a few minutes, maybe she didn't hear any movement, the second aunt quietly opened the door again, and saw that the tiger on the ground still didn't move, so she cautiously opened the door.

The second aunt took Zhang Fenghe to the tiger's side, and the two of them were full of shock.

"Xiaochi, you killed this tiger?"

"Sort of."

Zhang Xiaochi replied.

The second aunt turned her head to look in the direction of the entrance of the village and wondered.

"Why is the entrance of the village so noisy?"

Zhang Xiaochi sighed and told what happened at the entrance of the village.

Hearing this, the second aunt also sighed heavily.

"Thanks to you, otherwise our village would have suffered a catastrophe."

"That's what I'm supposed to do."

Zhang Xiaochi replied casually.

The second aunt looked down at the tiger corpse again, and then asked.

"What are you going to do with this tiger?"

"It's too late today, I'll send it to town tomorrow and sell it."

Zhang Xiaochi replied directly.

"It's a pity, if you move to town today, you will definitely be able to sell it for more money!"

The second aunt sighed, with a strong regret in her tone, speaking of this, she seemed to think of something, and quickly asked.

"Xiaochi, since the tigers have been killed, can we go to the back mountains to hunt?"

"It's not recommended, although this tiger is the one that appeared last night, there is no guarantee that there are no other fierce beasts, besides, even if there is no tiger, but the tiger is killed, other animals will not come to the outer area because of fear, and it will still be difficult to hunt at that time."

The second aunt nodded, and when Zhang Xiaochi said this, she also realized this problem.

The villagers have a big harvest these days because the tigers drive the prey out of the mountains, and now that the tigers are dead, the prey will naturally return to the mountains.

And there are many dangers in the mountains, and it is really not cost-effective to go to the mountains again in order to hunt.

"It seems that in the future, I can only be honestly a mud leg."

The second aunt sighed, with a strong unwillingness in her tone.

Zhang Xiaochi wanted to be comforted, but when he thought that his affairs had not been dealt with clearly, promising too early would be tantamount to playing hooligan in his eyes.
