Chapter 18: Tiger Hunting
There was a leg of uneaten venison hanging from the entrance of the cave, and there were offal thrown away during slaughter in a nearby creek, and it was probably the smell of the tiger that attracted the tiger. The gold miner found a five-foot-long tea tree stick and walked out of the hole with a leg of flesh.
The two herb pickers were frightened and ran forward to stop: "Young master, the tiger can't be provoked." ”
"Which of you would put a tiger skin in salt?"
The two couldn't speak for a long time. This kid has even figured out what to do with tiger skins!
Seeing that the two did not speak, the gold mine owner strode out.
Underneath the cave is a pine forest, where weedy trees can barely grow under the erosion of pine needle oil. The gold miner chose an open field, threw the venison on the ground, and climbed a pine tree that was long and broken. I cut down a few branches and made a simple bed. Since the tiger dares to hurt people and runs to the territory of the human race to demonstrate, there is no need to hide so well. After explaining a few words to the thief and ghost, he lay down and carried the exercises.
Around the time of the hour, clouds and mist drifted upwards from the foot of the mountain, covering the entire forest, and nothing could be seen beyond three feet. The gold mine owner thought that he was busy tonight, so he simply collected the exercises and went to sleep. At his current level, his cultivation has not yet reached the state of spiritual emptiness, and he needs to sleep to recover his strength.
About two hours later, the gold mine owner suddenly felt a palpitation and woke up.
The thief immediately slapped his ass: "The boss has refined his divine sense and feels the danger?" ”
The gold mine owner listened and was used. I've been practicing for a few months, and for the first time, I've sensed danger through my spirit. Of course, this is just an instinctive reaction, and it is too different from divine consciousness.
"The tiger is behind a big tree five feet away."
After a long time, the gold mine owner heard the sound of dead branches being trampled off. After a stick of incense, the sound of a tiger eating meat came from under the tree. This brute really doesn't think of himself as an outsider.
Following the thief's reminder, the gold mine owner slowly stood up, holding the stick in both hands. Use the alchemy technique to concentrate all the spiritual power absorbed on the eyes. Even if you can't hunt tigers, you can't miss the opportunity to practice your eyesight. After a stick of incense, my eyes felt dry and tears flowed involuntarily. Close your eyes immediately, rest for a few moments, and then continue looking.
The king of beasts has always walked sideways in the mountains, where to put the human boy in his eyes, after eating the leg meat, he will not leave. Lie under the tree and look up from time to time. This gave the gold mine owner a chance to exercise his eyesight, and when he opened his eyes for the fourth time, he finally saw two bright spots appear in the fog.
"I saw two bright spots."
"The tiger is two zhang away from your side, three zhang high, the head is on the right hand side, and the body is diagonally behind the left hand, do you dare to do it?"
"."
"For a moment, hit the highlights. The tiger is very explosive, and you have to be ready to pounce on the air. ”
The gold mine master mobilized all his spiritual power, and his feet slowly bent. The tiger felt the killing intent and bounced off the ground. At the same time, he jumped and picked up his club and fell from the sky.
When attacking, the gold mine owner deliberately moved three feet forward. But the tiger's agility was still beyond his expectations, and the bounce distance was not enough, and this stick only hit half of the tiger's buttocks. The stick smashed into the stone and broke in two.
"Ah......h
With an earth-shattering roar, the tiger reversed and swept towards the gold mine owner with its claws. The gold mine owner couldn't contain his momentum and pounced directly on the tiger. A bloody cut was made on his right hand, and a half-cut stick was taken off. He pulled out his short knife from the storage formation as fast as he could, retreated a foot away, and stood against a pine tree.
The tiger was injured even more severely, and one of its hips was broken. Knowing that he couldn't escape, he became even more ferocious, and roared at the gold mine owner in the air.
Hearing the roar of the tiger, the five herb pickers took their bows and ran to the entrance of the cave. But the woods were foggy, and I couldn't see anything, so I could only do it in a hurry.
The gold owner's eyes quickly adjusted to the light in the woods, locking on to the blurred shadows in front of him.
The tiger roared, and pounced with its teeth and claws.
At this time, the throwing knife technique that the gold mine owner was practicing came in handy, and he threw it out with all his strength. According to the design, regardless of whether the target is hit or not, the throwing knife throws at the same time, and the body pounces to the side, grabbing the half-stick in his hand. But the movement was still half a beat slower, and as soon as his hand caught the stick, he was pounced on by the tiger and couldn't move.
"It's over!"
In desperation, the gold mine owner picked up his stick and threw it backhanded. When he hit the third time, the stick came out of his hand again. There was a loud roar in his ears, and it shook his ears so much that all the droppings came out.
The tiger's roar was a bit leaky, and it was estimated that the short knife hit the vital point. He didn't dare to be careless, his right palm turned around, supported the tiger's belly, and punched a demon pill into it.
With a snort, the king of beasts bounced, jumped three feet away, and fell to the ground.
"Young Master......."
Seeing the herb pickers rushing over with firewood knives, bows and arrows, the gold mine owner was relieved to know that he was safe.
When he woke up, he found that he had come to the cave and was lying side by side with Ryugo. Two herb pickers are cleaning and stitching up wounds. After the wound is stitched up, a bowl of bitter medicine is poured into the stomach.
"Young master, you are so fierce, you dare to take on a tiger alone with a stick and a short knife."
"A stick broke the crotch, and a knife pierced through the mouth. The whole tiger skin does not have a single eye, and it is absolutely top-grade. ”
Lifting the knife, the gold mine owner immediately asked people to take it and put it into the storage formation. The short knife was soaked in tiger blood, and the rust on the blade was one point less, and the cold light was one point more.
The gold mine took the initiative to raise the aura and swam through the body. In addition to the wound on his hand, it was found that there was a complete palm print on his back.
Although Long Wu couldn't move, he was already able to speak. is explaining to the two medicine pickers, how to peel tiger skin, nitrate, tiger bones, tiger gall how to deal with it. Listening to the confident voice, I knew that there was no danger anymore.
The treatment and medication of the wound by the herb collector are exemplary, under the action of the spiritual power of the demon pill, only one day and one night later, the wound of the gold mine owner has already scabbed, and the small wound on the arm has been scabbed. And Long Wu, who was more lightly injured and was still in front of him, was still lying on a stretcher and couldn't move. If you don't see it with your own eyes, you simply can't believe it.
"A few uncles, don't tell me about killing tigers and healing wounds."
"Don't worry, we'll keep our mouths shut."
When the gold mine owner heard this, he felt that he was not confident. Such a hot topic, how uncomfortable it should be to hold it in your stomach and not talk about it.
"If this news spreads, I may only scold a few words, but the ghost I raised, it's not easy to say."
The thief is very good at coming to things, and he came out of the top door of the gold mine owner with a whoosh, and appeared to speak. Frightened, the five retreated to the outside of the cave and knelt on the ground and swore an oath. The old bird of the rivers and lakes said that walking in the rivers and lakes, one point of ability, nine points of blowing water, is not false at all.
This time he escaped death from the tiger's claws, making the gold mine owner realize that his flesh and blood could not withstand the toss, and the vajra technique had to be grasped.
