Chapter 52: Release

In this quiet mountain wilderness, Zhang Shaofei recalled the scriptures passed on to him by the six ancestors from time to time, quietly comprehended the true meaning of them, and comprehended the inner Zen machine, and gradually benefited in his heart.

One day, Zhang Shaofei went into the mountain to collect medicine, probably because there are few people in the Tiger Pit, and there are many varieties of mountain herbs in it, and they are also very lush.

Zhang Shaofei walked in unconsciously while collecting medicine, and walked deeper and deeper into the pit.

Suddenly, there was a deafening whistling sound and a stumble of footsteps ahead.

"What's going on up ahead?" Zhang Shaofei looked forward vigilantly, only to see the trees in the distance shaking constantly, and then two animals appeared. There was a sika deer desperately running towards it, and a colorful tiger was chasing after it with its legs.

Seeing that the sika deer was almost caught by the tiger several times, fortunately its body was flexible, twisted its body when the tiger's claws were about to be caught, and changed its escape route in time, so it was fortunate to escape. However, it can be seen from the running condition of the sika deer that it is tired at this time.

Seeing this, Zhang Shaofei knew that if this chase continued, the sika deer would definitely not be able to escape from the tiger's mouth, and a bloody disaster would soon happen in front of him.

How can you see death without help!

"But how do you go to the rescue?"

Zhang Shaofei, who has always had the idea of great compassion, stood there, and his thoughts were swirling like lightning: now he only has a small hoe in his hand to collect medicine, and if he rushes forward to fight the tiger with this small hoe as a weapon, he will definitely suffer a big loss.

Looking at the surrounding terrain, a large rock wall is high and steep, not far to the left. A bright light flew in front of him, and he immediately bent down and picked up a fist-sized stone.

The sika deer is getting closer and closer, and the colorful tiger is getting closer and closer. When it tried to wade through the stream, its front hooves stepped on a pebble in the stream, and it slipped forward, causing it to do a somersault forward, and fell into the stream, with its feet facing the sky.

When the tiger saw its prey fall into the stream, he chased it to the side of the stream, stopped his steps, pressed his body forward, lay on the ground with his two front legs, kicked his hind legs, roared, and was about to rise into the air, and pounced on the sika deer that had fallen in the stream.

At this critical moment, Zhang Shaofei rushed forward against the tiger, and his right hand holding the stone slammed down. The stone shot at the tiger like a cannonball.

Zhang Shaofei has practiced martial arts, his arms are strong, and the strength of throwing stones is certainly not small. The stone was like a divine help, impartial, and with a "snap", it hit the nose of the colorful tiger hard.

The stone was angular and angular, and the tiger's nose was bleeding, and it roared so hard that it could not restrain its momentum, and after it flew into the air, it fell into the stream with a "bang", and was choked by the stream for a few large mouthfuls.

The water of the stream was less than a foot deep, and the tiger struggled so hard that he managed to climb up to the shore of the stream and shake his head vigorously to shake off the water that flowed down his eyes.

After such a toss, the tiger with an injured nose was dizzy for a while.

The sika deer that fell in the stream took advantage of the fact that the tiger was dizzy, struggled to roll over in the stream, ran ashore, and ran desperately with his legs, and soon disappeared into the dense forest over there.

The colorful tiger was about to capture its prey, but it was hit hard, and when it climbed up to the shore from the stream, and then calmed down, the sika deer planted in the stream had long been gone. There was a person standing not far away, and that was Zhang Shaofei.

Seeing that the delicious prey was about to arrive, it escaped. The colorful tiger vented all his anger on Zhang Shaofei, roared, and pounced towards Zhang Shaofei.

Zhang Shaofei had already taken precautions, kicked with both feet, and with an arrow step, he jumped behind a large vertebral tree, and the tiger pounced.

Although the tiger is ferocious, its neck is extremely thick, and it cannot turn back in time when it is in place. When it moved, it turned around and found that the tree behind it was empty.

It turned out that Zhang Shaofei had already looked at the terrain and knew that he could escape from the big stone wall on the left, so after the tiger pounced in the air, he sprinted towards the stone wall over there from behind the big vertebral tree like a rabbit, jumped up under the stone wall, grabbed the protruding rock with both hands, and climbed up quickly.

This gray-white stone wall is dozens of zhang high, very steep, and almost at a right angle of 90 degrees to the ground, and Zhang Shaofei has been accustomed to climbing high and low on the big trees or stone walls in the mountains since he was a child.

The colorful tiger chased under the stone wall, unwilling to let Zhang Shaofei escape, and ran and tried to pounce on the heights, but its claws were hard, and it could not grasp the protruding rocks and fell to the ground.

The colorful tiger pounced several times, not only could not catch Zhang Shaofei, but made its claws hurt, and fell from a high place and made its body ache, so it had to watch Zhang Shaofei climb higher and higher under the stone wall, and finally it left helplessly wagging its tail.

……

In the blue sky, white clouds flutter in the wind.

The bright sun shone on the Yunwu Mountain, and everything seemed vibrant.

Liang Zhenlian was picking mushrooms at the northern foot of the mountain, when she suddenly heard the sharp screams of wild beasts coming from the side of Shimen Valley.

She listened intently, and made out carefully: "Ah, this cry came from the place where the trap was installed in my house. Did you hit the beast today? Liang Zhenlian's heart tightened, and she walked quickly towards that side with a basket of mushrooms.

Liang Zhenlian came to the small hill pier at the intersection of Shimen Valley and the canyon next to the ancient post road, and saw a huge sika deer caught in the wild grass next to the big stone and caught his right foot in the trap of the beast, and was struggling desperately.

Liang Zhenlian was overjoyed: Because in the past few months, the few traps installed in the mountains have not caught wild beasts, and today I finally have a harvest. She came to a distance of about two feet away from the sika deer, blinking her beautiful eyes and looking at it, the body of the sika deer in prison was about three feet long, and it seemed to weigh more than seventy pounds. Growing up in the mountains, she knew that the trapped beast was still fighting, and that a girl alone could not bring this prey uniform home, so she said to herself: "No, I want to go home and ask my brother to come with my father." ”

Thinking of this, Liang Zhenlian carried the basket and ran back to Liang Tianzhai's house.

At this time, Zhang Shaofei was on the hillside not far away, and heard the wailing of animals, he knew that something had happened, and after listening carefully for a while, he identified the direction of the cry, and followed the sound to find it.

Zhang Shaofei saw that the right foot of a sika deer was tightly clamped by the trap, and a lot of blood was shed, staining the trap and the grass red. It had struggled so hard that it had only been in vain, but had exacerbated its own pain, so it had to stand honestly and not dare to move again.

Zhang Shaofei carefully inspected and found that the sika deer was also hit by an arrow.

When Zhang Shaofei hesitated, suddenly two little sika deer with light fur and childish spirit stumbled from there, came to the sika deer trapped in the trap, and turned around anxiously. When they saw Zhang Shaofei nearby, they were not afraid.

After patrolling for a while, two fawns burrowed under the belly of the big sika deer and sucked the milk with their mouths.

"Ah, it's a doe caught in the trap, and two baby suckling deer are still waiting to be fed." This was the first reaction in Zhang Shaofei's mind.
