At noon on the fourth day, Liu Yu arrived in Shengjing, and the weather in Shengjing was much colder than in the capital, which could be said to be dripping into ice, which made Liu Yu, who had been living in the south, very unaccustomed.

I bought new warm clothes in Shengjing, and after a day of rest at the inn, I went to Uiju. Arrive at Uiju Castle in the evening of the next day.

After several days of horseback riding, Liu Yu's inner thigh was ground into blood blisters, and her walking pace changed. Liu Yu endured the pain and found an inn with a good environment in Yizhou City to live in.

After Xiao Er brought the water up, Liu Yu tied the door and carefully took off the cotton clothes on his body. Enter the space in your underwear, soak in the spiritual spring of the space for a while, and wait for the scar on your leg before returning to the guest room to take a bath.

After washing it with hot water, my body warmed up a lot. Although the four seasons in the space are like spring, Liu Yu didn't dare to stay in it for too long, for fear that he would not adapt to the cold weather outside after staying for a long time.

Liu Yu stayed in the city of Yiju for two days, prepared some tools for going up the mountain, and brought a lot of food.

Liu Yu tasted all the shops that sold food in Yizhou City, and bought more delicious ones, but when he returned to the inn to count, he found out how many things he had bought.

After resting for two days, Liu Yu went to the county government in Yizhou, and after seeing the county order, she took out a token and identified herself, and asked the county order to take her to the place where the evil tiger hurt people.

The county magistrate checked the token, and saw that the imperial court really sent someone to catch the tiger, so he happily prepared a banquet, and after eating, he asked the two officials to take Liu to Juyi Village, where the evil tiger hurt people.

Liu Yu followed the official step high, and walked in the heavy snow for a long time to Juyi Village, at this time only the villagers who were too old and had nowhere to go remained in the village.

Seeing the officials coming, the village chief hurriedly stepped forward to receive them, took a few of them to his house to roast the fire, and then, as usual, handed the only two pieces of broken silver in his hand to one of the officials.

The official habitually estimated the weight of the silver in his hand, and when he saw Liu Yu standing aside, he hurriedly smiled and stuffed the silver in his hand into Liu Yu's hand and said, "My lord, this is a filial piety to you." ”

Liu Yu took the silver from the government servant and returned it to the village chief and said, "Village chief, you can take this silver!"

The village chief hurriedly pushed it away and said, "My lord, this is your hard money, you can take it!"

Liu Yu had no choice but to put away the two pieces of broken silver. However, when Liu Yu visited his injured son, he put the silver back and gave an extra five taels of silver to put under his son's pillow.

After talking to the village chief, Liu Yu knew why the tiger wanted to go down the mountain.

It turned out that because the weather was too cold, the animals on the mountain were hiding, and the tiger could not find food and had to go down the mountain to eat people, and more than a dozen people had already died in the tiger's mouth.

Speaking of the old village chief's sad tears, there were several people in the village who were eaten alone, and a few were bitten by tigers on the way to save people, and finally died of serious injuries.

These are strong laborers, not to mention the many who have been bitten by tigers. Although they are still alive, the Zhuang family has all the money to go to the doctor, and most of them are lying in bed waiting for death.

Now the people of the village have fled outside, leaving only the elderly who do not want to leave their homes, and the orphans and widows who have nowhere to go take turns in the village to take care of the wounded.

Liu Yu was also very sad when he saw the village chief so sad. Thinking that he would go up the mountain earlier to get rid of the evil tiger, he asked, "Village chief, when will the evil tiger come down the mountain?" ”

"Originally, there was a veteran hunter in our village, and he knew where the tiger lived, but some time ago he was bitten by a tiger to protect his son, and he came back and died. Now no one knows. The village chief waved his hand lonely and said.

Liu Yu nodded and said, "Thank you village chief, I will immediately go up the mountain to fight the tiger and return you to the peace of Juyi Village." ”

"This can't be helped, this can't be helped! My lord, the three of you are no match for the tiger at all. When the village chief heard Liu Yu say that he wanted to go up the mountain, he hurriedly persuaded him to stop it.

Liu Yu waved his hand and said, "Village chief, it's not three people, it's me who goes up the mountain alone." I came to get rid of the evil tiger on the orders of the emperor, and I have some means of self-preservation, so the village chief does not have to worry. ”

"By the Emperor's orders?"

"Yes, the emperor attaches great importance to this matter, and specially ordered Liu to come and kill the tiger. ”

After listening to Liu Yu's words, the village chief knelt down in excitement, kept kowtowing in the direction of the imperial city, and kept saying: "The emperor's grace is mighty!"

Liu Yu hurriedly asked the two officials to help the village chief up, and said to the village chief: "Village chief, you get up quickly! I'm about to go up the mountain, you go and arrange for the villagers to stay at home and not come out." ”

"Okay, I'll go. The village chief was so excited that he hurriedly went out without caring about Liu Yu and the others.

Liu Yu turned his head to the two officials and said, "Two elder brothers, do you want to stay in Juyi Village?"

The two officials glanced at each other, and one of them said to Liu Yu: "My lord, the younger brothers have something to do with the yamen, so go back first." ”

Liu Yu pretended not to see the two of them look at each other, nodded and said goodbye to the two.

Liu Yu went up the mountain with a rope and a sword, and the mountain was blocked by heavy snow, and it was so white that it was impossible to distinguish the direction at all.

Liu Yu had no choice but to follow her feelings and find a direction to walk up the mountain. The mountain is not better than the mountain, the further you go up the mountain, the heavier the wind and snow, Liu Yujian rarely walks up the mountain.

When he reached the halfway point of the mountain, Liu Yu was too tired, so he stopped to rest for a while, tightened the robe on his body, and pulled the brim of the cloak down.

Hiding in the leeward place, he took two rice balls and ate them, and ate the rice balls quickly in two bites. Increasing the heat in his body, Liu Yu soon had strength again.

In order to save time, Liu Yu took up the light work and flew to the mountain. When he was about to reach the top, Liu Yu found a cave and hurriedly got into it to avoid the wind and snow.

The cave was very large and dry, and Liu Yu untied the cloak on his body to protect against the wind and snow, and cleaned up the snowflakes that fell on it.

Then, Liu Yu took the cloak and walked towards the cave. The further you go, the stronger the smell becomes, and it seems that the cave is inhabited by wild beasts.

Liu Yu held the sword in his hand, ready to fight at any time. Walking inside again, Liu Yu heard the sound of snoring inside.

Not long after, Liu Yu saw two big tigers sleeping next to each other, and the snoring sound was almost shaking the snow off the mountain.

These two should be tigers who came down from the mountain to eat people, and there are still some blood stains on the beards of the elders on their mouths. Obviously, it was not long after eating.

It really didn't take much effort to come here, and I met you so quickly, and I didn't have to look for it all over the mountains. Liu Yu thought to herself.

Liu Yu slowed down and gently pulled the sword out of the scabbard with his right hand. Unexpectedly, such a soft voice could wake up this beast.

When Liu Yu pulled out his sword, he saw that one of the big tigers had opened its big eyes like copper bells, which startled Liu Yu?

Fortunately, Liu Yu quickly stabilized and made a provocative move towards the big tiger.

Sure enough, the big tiger that had already opened its eyes stood up from its nest and slowly walked towards Liu Yu.
