Chapter 12: Killing the Tiger
How did Xiao Lin get to Baiyun Temple? How did he become a Mingyue Taoist priest?
That year, after Da Lin and Xiao Lin escaped when they encountered a monster, Xiao Lin hurried like a frightened bird, all the way forward with a deep foot and a shallow foot, and he didn't know how many miles he ran, he didn't dare to look back, thinking about the appearance of the monster, it seemed that as long as he stopped, the monster was going to catch up.
In this way, he ran out of breath, and the sweat all over his body couldn't stop flowing. I don't know how many miles I ran, Xiao Lin felt that his feet slipped and he slid down. The speed of the slide down was so fast that my mind went blank. His heart was pounding nervously, in the instinct of life, his hand unintentionally touched a tree trunk, and the trunk just touched his body, and he only felt a pain in his body. However, due to the instinct of life, he was still grasping for something. As a result, instead of catching anything, she was hit by a tree, and the sharp pain made her faint.
The next morning, just after dawn, two Taoist priests slowly climbed up the mountain along the sheep intestine path. When they climbed halfway up the mountain, they saw a black thing in front of them in the middle of two trees, and the two of them were surprised, and hurriedly walked over to take a look, and saw a teenager lying on the ground.
The older Taoist priest stepped forward, he came to Xiao Lin, turned Xiao Lin's body over, and then tried it in its nostrils, feeling a faint breath. He turned to the Taoist priest behind him and said, "Senior brother, as the saying goes, saving someone's life is better than building a seventh-level floating slaughter." Today is a day of great compassion on my ancestors. ”
Behind him, he said, "That's true." It seems that Senior Brother is going to add another disciple again. "You can't say that, it depends on whether he is related to my Daomen. As he spoke, the old Taoist priest took out a pill from his clothes and stuffed it into Xiao Lin's mouth, and then poured a little water into his mouth, and when he saw Xiao Lin swallowing it, he raised his head and said, "I just gave him a pill, which is for the treatment of internal injuries, but his upper part is very heavy, but it is not life-threatening." ”
Speaking of this, he said thoughtfully: "His injury needs to be treated for a long time, and besides, there is not much medicine to treat the fall injury in my opinion, so I think we might as well carry him to a relatively flat place over there." Let him recover slowly, and let's hurry up the mountain to collect medicine. I'll carry him back to my Baiyun Temple when we get back. I'm slowly treating him. Hearing his words, the young Taoist priest nodded.
So, the two Taoist priests carried Xiaolin to a relatively flat place next to him and put it away. Just put Xiaolin away, the older Taoist priest felt that it was inappropriate, although this place was flat, but here to the bottom of the full forty meters, belonging to the halfway up the mountain. If the child wakes up and doesn't pay attention to the fall, it will be too late to regret it.
The young Taoist priest saw the senior brother's thoughts, and he said, "He is already a young man, and he is a big child, so he will not be unaware of danger." I don't think he'll wake up and move. Hearing what the junior brother said, he nodded, and then the two of them walked towards the mountain.
There was not much time, and Kobayashi woke up slowly. At this time, he felt unbearable pain, and he had no strength in his body. He opened his eyes vigorously, and was greeted by the tall pine trees in front of him, and the pine branches that blocked the sun. He wanted to turn his head, look around him, and determine his position.
However, no matter how hard he tried, his head seemed to be full of pounds, and he couldn't turn at all. He wanted to get up first, but he didn't even have the strength to raise his arm. He was trying to think, thinking about the scene he had remembered last night, when he had broken up with Dabayashi and had fallen off a cliff while running in a hurry.
Thinking about it, he felt pain all over his body, and unconsciously, slowly fell into a deep sleep.
I don't know how long it took, but after the two Taoist priests finished picking the herbs, they hurriedly walked back. Put Xiaolin in the middle of the mountain, and they really didn't feel at ease in their hearts. As they were walking back, they heard the roar of a tiger, which shook the valley and was terrifying. Roar is heard. The color of the two people changed, "It's not good, the kid is still halfway up the mountain." And the tiger's voice came from that direction. The two of them quickened their pace and hurried here.
After about twenty minutes, they were already able to see Xiao Lin's figure from a distance, but at this moment, the two of them stopped at the same time, stared at the eyes of surprise, and saw that the tiger was searching everywhere, and it was almost to Xiao Lin's hiding place. At this time, they can't make a sound. If the sound startles the tiger, the tiger may rush towards Xiaolin or the Taoist priest. The consequences are very serious.
The two walked forward for a few dozen meters, looking for a large rock to hide. They pinned all their hopes on the fact that the tiger did not find Kobayashi. Then the tiger turned and walked away on its own. The tiger continued to walk, his keen sense of smell as if he had smelled something. I saw him slowly half-squatting down, putting his head almost to the bottom, and slowly walking forward, as if he was facing a great enemy. It is also a prelude to the tiger's imminent attack.
The tiger slowly and cautiously walked forward for more than thirty meters, getting closer and closer to Xiaolin. The two Taoist priests opened their mouths, and their hearts were raised to their throats. It's useless to think about anything at this point, it seems that this child is definitely dead. The old Taoist priest couldn't help but complain in his heart, it would have been nice if he had been carried down the mountain, who wanted to let this child die with a thought.
At this moment, Xiao Lin had already woken up, but she felt that her head was heavy and her head was swollen, and her whole body was in pain and weakness. The eyelids seem to weigh a thousand pounds, and I can't open my eyes at all. The tiger slowly approached Xiaolin, and saw that there were still ten, five, three, and two meters away from Li Xiaolin. When it reached a distance of two meters, the tiger straightened up when he saw that there was no danger. Then he swaggered towards Xiao Lin, and when he came to Xiao Lin, Xiao Lin was lying there, and he didn't find the tiger at all.
Tigers have a habit of not eating dead things. It came to Xiao Lin and saw that Xiao Lin had not moved for a long time, and the tiger regarded Xiao Lin, who was lying on the ground in front of him and motionless, as a "dead man", and he knew that the tiger ate living things and did not eat dead things. The tiger came to Kobayashi and began to sniff Kobayashi with his nose.
Xiao Lin was lying on the ground, the tiger's beard was tied to Xiao Lin's face, Xiao Lin felt that it was prickly and itchy, especially a tiger's beard stretched directly into Xiao Lin's nostrils. Xiao Lin felt that the nose was particularly itchy and uncomfortable, so he opened his mouth and sneezed hard, which was loud and loud.
This sudden sneeze frightened the tiger into a loud "whoop", and at the same time jumped two meters high, and one fell into the mountain without paying attention. Then the desperate screams of the tiger were heard from the bottom of the mountain. Falling from a 40-meter-high mountainside, the result can be imagined. When they came to Xiao Lin out of breath, they found Xiao Lin lying on the ground calmly, his eyes slightly closed, and he didn't know anything about what was happening in front of him.
The elder elder pushed Xiao Lin and said, "Immeasurable Buddha, the little donor will wake up quickly." With this push, Xiao Lin slowly opened his eyes, and when he saw two old Taoists standing in front of him, he couldn't help but be stunned. He tried hard to think about everything that happened in front of him, and after thinking for a long time, he said: "Two masters, I fell into the cliff yesterday, did you two old people save me?" ”
When the two Taoist priests saw Xiao Lin say this, they first nodded and then nodded. Seeing this, Dalin blinked and blinked his eyes as if he didn't understand. But he struggled to remember. The two Taoist priests hurriedly said, "Don't move, lie down quickly, your injuries are very serious." It is necessary to recuperate slowly. Xiao Lin listened and said, "Thank you, thank you two masters."
Hearing Kobayashi's polite words, the two of them were very happy. Especially seeing the scene when Xiao Lin sneezed just now and scared the tiger into falling into the cliff, the two of them wanted to take Xiao Lin as an apprentice at the same time.
