Chapter 104: Catching Two Tigers
Tian Xu left this base in Humen, unfolded his olfactory image to navigate for himself, and walked towards the mountains and forests. He found that there are quite a few tigers bred here, and these tigers are not artificially fed, but live by hunting herbivores in the mountain forest themselves, which largely maintains the wild nature of the tigers. There are a large number of cattle, sheep, deer, wild boars and other animals living in this mountain forest, which are supposed to be used as food for tigers. Tian Xu walked not far in this mountain forest, only over two mountains, and found several large herbivorous fauna, it seems that this Humen in the breeding of tigers, invested a lot of energy and costs.
At this time, his olfactory imaging spotted a large adult male tiger hunting a large wild boar behind a nearby hill. The big wild boar weighed more than 300 pounds, and the tiger lay in ambush on the hillside, waiting for the wild boar to approach.
Tian Xu gently turned over the mountain, and here he could see the scene of tiger predation relatively clearly. I saw the tiger lying motionless, and the big boar, completely unaware of the danger, was approaching it step by step. Just when the wild boar was less than thirty meters away from the tiger, the tiger suddenly burst out, jumped several times in a row, and was thrown to the ground by the tiger before he could find the dangerous wild boar and accelerate his escape.
The wild boar is called a more terrible beast than a tiger by hunters in the Northeast, saying that it is a muddy beast and that even a tiger is no opponent. However, there is obviously an exaggeration in this statement, the adult male boar who acted alone, the guy called "the lone pig" by the local hunters, was knocked down by the adult male tiger weighing twice as much, and then he no longer had the ability to resist, but just "squeaked" loudly, and was bitten on the back of the neck by the tiger, and was soon broken off his cervical vertebrae, and was motionless.
Tian Xu didn't wait for the tiger to start eating its prey and quickly slid down the hillside, this tiger made him very satisfied, he didn't want to wait for this guy to finish eating and get covered in blood before he did it.
The tiger quickly spotted Tian Xu approaching, and it turned around and roared at Tian Xu, declaring its ownership of the wild boar. Tian Xu ignored it and still walked towards it. Seeing that Tian Xu ignored it completely, the tiger felt that his pride had been hurt, so he was angry at that time, roared, and the huge body of six or seven hundred catties jumped up violently and rushed towards Tian Xu.
The tiger is indeed a very powerful animal.
From this pounce, Tian Xu deeply realized the meaning of the word "tiger and tiger". Not counting the body with a tail more than two meters long, the one-foot-long bloody mouth, the seven or eight centimeters long, the huge canine teeth with thick fingers, the muscular and thick forelimbs, and the two giant palms that are a circle larger than a human slap, all show the majesty of the king of the forest. The problem is, this is not a brute bull or a stupid bear who wins by brute force alone, but a cat, a big nimble cat!
While sighing, Tian Xu's feet did not stop, he followed the momentum of the tiger's pounce, and took two big steps back, making the tiger's pounce fail.
The tiger that fluttered in the air landed right in front of Tian Xu. After it pounces into the air, it is on all fours, and its waist and abdomen exert its strength, and it is about to jump again. Tian Xu didn't give it such a chance, he punched out, and it hit the tiger's nose right on.
The tiger's nose was deeply collapsed by Tian Xu's punch, and under the pain, it roared and was about to turn around and flee. As soon as Tian Xu stepped up, he grabbed the skin behind the tiger's ears with both hands, and pressed it down hard, pressing its neck to the ground.
This time, the tiger's body was flattened by Tian Xu, and the two thick forelimbs were left behind the outer door, and there was no need for strength at all. Its hind legs struggled hard underground, but its strong waist and abdomen were restricted by the jaw and neck attached to the ground, and it also couldn't exert its strength, and its huge body could only writhe awkwardly there, but it could never get out of the control of Tian Xu's hands.
Tian Xu did this because he remembered a tiger hero in Anhui in the sixties and seventies of the last century. It is said that the old gentleman, who was not physically strong at that time, used this trick to catch many tigers and leopards with his bare hands. Tian Xu has always been skeptical of this legend, he has never been able to imagine, how can a person control a tiger weighing more than three times his own with his bare hands? Not to mention a tiger, it is a larger domestic cat, it seems that it is not so easy to catch.
Today he tried the legendary method and found that it still worked. As long as you are not nervous and decisive, it is really possible for a trained and strong man to control an adult tiger. It's just that if an ordinary person catches a tiger, what can they do with it? Unless someone helps, the person who catches the tiger can only be in a stalemate with the tiger, and once the person's physical strength is exhausted, it will be dangerous.
Of course, Tian Xu does not have this problem. After holding down the tiger and experiencing the feeling of capturing the tiger alive, he compressed a ball of spiritual energy into the tiger's cranial cavity and then detonated it. There was a soft pop, and after the tiger struggled a few times, it lay on the ground and did not move.
Tian Xu didn't want to clean it up now, so he directly put the dead tiger into the space and looked at the wild boar that was killed by the tiger. The boar was covered in black hair and looked dirty, which really made him not interested.
He left the boar where it was, and when he turned to leave, he found an unexpected surprise. Not far away, there is a spine senticosus plant, which turned out to be a human-level holy medicine. In his impression, there doesn't seem to be a medicinal material like Acanthopanax senticosus in the Medicine King Bucket, and this discovery can be regarded as making up for a gap in the Medicine King Bucket.
Just when the tiger was hunting wild boar, this eleuthero plant was knocked down. Tian Xu took out the sapper shovel from the space, dug it out, and put it into the space.
Walking in the tiger garden, Tian Xu successively found some medicinal materials such as ginseng, which were basically ordinary medicinal materials, there were very few elixirs, and the grade was also low.
After a while, Tian Xu came to the boundary river between the two countries, the boundary river is not wide, only ten or twenty meters. Not far from him, a large tree had fallen and was right across the river, forming the shape of a bridge. He guessed that this should have been deliberately made by the people of Humen.
There is a boundary monument by the river, which seems to be very formal, but he also knows that for a cultivation sect like Humen, secular borders are basically meaningless. Let this boundary monument stand here, and it is also Humen to give face to secular managers.
Tian Xu crossed the river to the other side and turned around, there was no obvious difference between that side and this side, but the place was larger, and the environment was more like a primeval forest.
