In three days and three nights, the tiger baby walked back and forth between the village and the ruins of Taihao several times, walking through the steep and roadless mountains in the wilderness, and crossing the towering snow peaks on the way. Running such a little road with an army formation today is nothing at all, and I don't even feel tired.

After a while, it was estimated that the sergeants were almost rested, and Huwa stood up and shouted: "How are you feeling, have you rested?

What does he mean by this, humiliating everyone and not being able to catch up? The captain jumped up and shouted angrily: "Housheng, who are you? Don't rely on your own cultivation to dare to provoke the military formation guarding the city, I'm afraid it will be too late to regret it later!"

Huwa smiled from afar: "Don't you want to arrest me, why don't you even know who I am? The military formation guarding the city outline, can you arrest people casually without asking for a reason?" After speaking, he led the jumping dog to step away, this time walking unhurriedly, because the military formation had not yet gotten up to pursue.

One of the soldiers said, "Captain, there is a village not far ahead, and when he passes through the village, he can't be too fast." We shouted in the back and told the villagers in the village to intercept him and catch him if they delayed for a while. ”

The captain nodded, "Then we can spend the night in the village today." ”

Sixteen people got up again to chase the tiger baby, and as soon as they moved, the tiger baby began to speed up. The sergeants had just rested for a long time, and at the moment they were running fast again. There is a village not far ahead, and you can already see the fields in the distance. Unexpectedly, the tiger baby suddenly turned to the left and entered the mountains and forests.

The sergeant also chased into the forest, and the tiger baby climbed the mountain in front, followed by a group of people. The sergeants drew their swords and cut through the thorns and branches that blocked their vision from time to time, and sometimes they couldn't see the figure of the tiger baby, but the footprints on the snow were very clear. This person will definitely not be able to escape!

The tiger baby really didn't run away, the speed of walking in the mountains and forests slowed down significantly, and people had to be able to keep up, and he didn't want to tire those sergeants out. But the people who followed behind were very uncomfortable, and if they chased after them, it would be dark. The captain gritted his teeth and said, "After dark, it is not convenient for him to travel in the mountains and forests, we will definitely be able to catch him." ”

But after chasing, the sergeants also noticed that something was wrong. Because the tiger baby circled around a mountain for most of the circle, it turned out to be going back in the direction. That is to say, he left the road and went around in the field, whether there was a road ahead or not. Just according to the direction, I went to Shuangliu Village.

The deputy captain said: "Looking at the direction of the thief's journey, it seems that he still wants to go to Shuangliu Village, but he is walking through the wilderness and choosing the road. ”

The captain muttered: "That's fine, we can block him in Shuangliu Village before and after, and it will save us from chasing him like this all the time." ...... But today we have to spend the night in the mountains, so everyone should be vigilant. ”

When the last rays of golden sunlight disappeared into the distant mountains, the sergeants once again saw the figure of the tiger baby. They emerged from the forest, and in front of them was a downward ravine, and beyond the ravine was an open hillside. Surrounded by hills on both sides, it is a sheltered place from the wind. Huwa found another flat rock to sweep away the snow and sat down, and a fire was built next to it.

It's getting dark, and Tiger Baby is obviously preparing to camp as well. Of course, you have to make a fire to keep warm in the mountains and snow. At this time, all the sergeants were also tired enough, and the body consumed more than galloping on the road was greater, and they were really a little unable to run. The boy looked very close, but he went down to the ravine and climbed up the hill. It's a long way to go.

I've already chased it here, and it's impossible to go back today. The captain ordered to camp on the hillside and sweep away the snow on the flat ground. Three fires were lit, and everyone rested between them, taking turns to watch for the movements of the murderers over there.

There was only one murderer, and if he fell asleep in the middle of the night, he might be able to sneak over and catch him, and he could have dealt with the dog with a bow and arrow in advance—that's what the captain thought when he gave the order.

The army went out of the village to pursue it as a temporary action, and I didn't expect to run to such a ghost place beforehand, and although I lit a fire in a sheltered place, I still felt very cold, because everyone was hungry. The military array was originally stationed in Shuangliu Village, and it was impossible to bring dry food when chasing it out, and after such a general consumption, the stronger and stronger the man felt, the more hungry he felt, but there was no way, he could only endure it temporarily.

They saw only the tiger baby, but the dog did not know where to go, and some of the weary sergeants had already begun to sleep by the fire with their shirts. Then I heard a few dog barks from the mountain forest on the other side of the ravine, and the tiger baby stood up and walked over, and after a while dragged a wild beast out of the mountain forest again.

The sergeants were taken aback, the dog had actually run to find prey, and summoned the murderer to hunt a roe deer in the forest. It made people feel angry and depressed, everyone's stomachs were rumbling with hunger, but they could only swallow their saliva and stare dryly.

Unexpectedly, the tiger baby dragged the roe deer down the hill in the snow, and walked over the ravine to the sergeant's camp. The sergeants jumped to their feet, drew their long swords, and the captain nervously picked up his bow and arrows.

The tiger baby stood still outside the range of the captain's bow and arrows, threw the roe deer forward, and said, "You should be very tired after chasing for a day. The snow is cold, and if you stay hungry for the night, you may get sick. I just hit a roe deer, so you can eat it, and you don't have to be polite to me. ”

With that, he turned and walked back, went down the hill unhurriedly, and sat down peacefully by the fire on the opposite hillside. And the sergeants looked at each other, holding their weapons for a long time without reacting, they probably couldn't imagine that they would encounter such a thing today!

One of the warriors whispered, "Captain, that roe deer...... Can we drag it over and bake it? You see...... Is it possible that he was poisoned?"

The captain held a longbow in his hand, and stamped his feet in some anger, saying, "What kind of business is this! Let us chase after us for a day, and then beat a roe deer and ask us to eat, is he walking the dog?"

However, the deputy captain spoke very truthfully, and whispered: "Just wash and peel the roe deer in the snow, and after it is cooked, order one person to eat it first, and if there is nothing to do, then everyone will continue to eat to their heart's content." ”

Someone asked, "So who eats first?"

The captain said hatefully: "I'll eat it first!" It's obviously a roe deer that he just hunted, and he can't poison it. ...... When I'm full of food and sleep, I'll catch up with him tomorrow no matter what, otherwise I'll be one of the captains of the Feihong Six Formations!"

The sergeants did not dare to say much, so they quickly dragged the roe deer over and skinned it, there was no water nearby, but it was enough to scrub it with snow. The roe deer meat is worn on the branches of trees and stuck in long knives, and it is quickly roasted to the point of oil, giving off an enticing aroma. Everyone was already very hungry, and they all had a great appetite when they smelled the smell, and they didn't let the captain eat first, so they all took a big bite of it.

And the captain cut off a few pieces of the fattest flesh with his waist knife, put them on the shaft of an arrow, and walked down the hill with a bow, towards the place where the tiger baby was camping. The tiger baby seemed to have entered a settled state, but when the captain approached, he opened his eyes and smiled: "You came here at night with barbecue, do you want to sit down and have a good chat?"

The captain had a calm face but did not answer, stood still and shot an arrow with his bow and arrow, which happened to be inserted next to the fire that the tiger baby had lit. Huwa couldn't help but nod and praised: "Your archery skills are exquisite, your skills are amazing, and you are wearing several pieces of meat on the shaft of the arrow, and you can shoot so far without losing your head!"

This was clearly a compliment, but the captain listened to it like a harsh mockery, and without saying a word, he turned and went down the hill, and returned to his camp. A soldier leaned over and whispered, "Captain, why do you want to give him meat to eat?

The captain said in a sullen voice: "The roe deer was originally hunted by others, but they were sent to us to eat. How can we come and not communicate, the meat is cooked, of course we have to send it to others. As for the rest, we'll talk about it until we catch someone!"

Pan ran to the fire, sniffed the flesh on the shaft of the arrow, and looked a little greedy. The tiger baby nodded and smiled: "They are eating meat, so let's eat meat too." ”

......

The sixteen elite warriors in the army had an astonishing amount of food, and they ate a roe deer cleanly. Someone spread the skin of the roe deer on the ground and asked the captain to lie down on it and rest. The meat was full and warm, and the sergeants were tired all day, and soon fatigue hit, and except for those who took turns to keep watch, the others slept soundly as soon as they lay down, and snoring one after another.

The tiger baby and the group of sergeants looked at each other strangely across a ravine, and there was no word this night, neither anyone took advantage of the darkness to sneak up on the tiger baby, nor did the tiger baby touch the past to attack those sergeants. When the sun rose the next day, the tiger baby stood up and moved around the extinguished fire, all of which he thought of himself, as if he were imitating all kinds of beasts in the wilderness.

The sergeant on duty woke up his companions and called to the captain, "That man has gotten up, can we chase him?"

The captain had been tossed by the tiger baby and felt like he was going crazy, and shouted angrily: "Chase, of course you have to chase, catch up with all your strength as fast as possible!" As he spoke, he strode down the hill with a bow and arrow, and the warriors also rushed behind him, and a warrior silently rolled up the roe deer leash by his side.

Seeing that the pursuers were rushing over again, the tiger baby summoned Pan Gu and walked into the mountain forest. Today's pursuit is very interesting, the military formation following behind, especially the captain, is obviously already angry, gritting his teeth and having to catch up with the tiger baby, everyone gradually opened the distance, and only the captain rushed to the front alone.

As fast as the captain was, the tiger baby was as fast as he was, always staying just outside the range of the bow and arrow. Yesterday they set out from Shuangliu Village at noon and pursued them until dark; today they set off at dawn and walked through the mountains, forests and fields, and went in the direction of Shuangliu Village again.
