After listening to the crow's words, Xu Jiaorong was also interested, so she continued to hide there and peek. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

After a while, the crowhead whispered, "It's coming!"

Xu Jiaorong hurriedly hid more hidden, and secretly looked into the distance.

She was even more surprised by what she saw, but she saw the tiger running along the mountain stream, and it was a sixteen or seventeen-year-old human boy walking with the tiger.

The young man was dressed in a short green cloth coat that had been patched but neatly tied, and his bare feet were on a pair of delicately woven straw sandals, and his face was handsome, and a lazy smile hung on his lips.

The young man was not tall and a little thin, but the tiger seemed to be in awe of him, and while running in small steps, he turned back and roared at the young man, and in the roar he did not feel the majesty of the king of beasts at all, but seemed to have some flattering meaning in it.

A man and a tiger came to the place where the tiger had buried the dead deer, and the tiger took the dead deer out three or two times before him, and brought it to the young man with his mouth.

The young man casually lifted the dead deer weighing dozens of pounds, as if it did not take any effort, and then shook the dirt on the deer with some disgust, pouted and said to the tiger: "Can't you beast learn to be smarter? ”

The tiger seemed to be embarrassed by his number, and hung his head and ears to look a little embarrassed.

The young man complained for a while, and then said, "Counting this deer, you have already given me a full thirty prey before and after, which shows that you are sincere, and I agreed to you in that matter." Today is the night of the full moon, you go back for the time being, and I will naturally appear then. ”

When the tiger heard this, he let out a loud roar, and the roar was full of joy and excitement.

Then the boy and the tiger parted ways, one returned to the forest, and the other carried the dead deer along the mountain stream.

After the two of them walked away, Xu Jiaorong and Crowhead looked at each other, both of them at a loss.

Xu Jiaorong asked, "Crowhead, do you understand the meaning of the young man's words?"

The crow head also said with some confusion: "Listening to the meaning of the young man's words, it seems that the tiger has something to ask the young man to do, so he hunted a lot of prey and gave it to him as a reward." And that happened at the full moon tonight. ”

Xu Jiaorong was even more confused: "What is it that makes a tiger so troublesome." What was so peculiar about that young man that the tiger was so humbly asking for help? ”

At this time, a voice suddenly came from behind the two: "If the lady and the little sister want to know the answer, wouldn't it be clear if they went to see it together?"

Both of them were startled, and hurriedly turned back to look, only to see that Li Gongfu was already standing behind them at some point.

Xu Jiaorong was dumbfounded and complained: "Don't you walk without a sound?

Li Gongfu chuckled and said: "Don't be weird, I also found out that there are fierce beasts in the mountains and forests, so I hurried over for fear that you would have something." I've seen the scene just now, and the young man seems to be quite extraordinary. Anyway, there's nothing going on today, so let's follow him to see what the hell is going on?"

Xu Jiaorong and Crowhead couldn't hold back the curiosity in their hearts, and nodded together in agreement.

Li Gongfu immediately used the Mu Dun Method in the "Five Elements Escape Technique", picked up a leaf and recited the method silently, and used it as a medium to attract the rich wood power in the mountains and forests to wrap the three of them, turning into a blue and blue light and flying up the air for more than ten zhang, following the young man from a distance.

The young man seemed to walk calmly, but in fact he walked like the wind, all the way through the forest and the stream like walking on the flat ground, and in a short time he had walked more than ten miles, and finally stopped in front of a cave.

The cave is located on a stone wall facing the sun on one side, and the entrance is clearly manicured, with a neat edge at the top and bottom of the arch, and two gates with thick wooden planks. In front of the cave there is a flat bottom of one acre, surrounded by a fence made of wooden stakes more than one person in the thickness of an arm, forming a rather spacious courtyard.

In the courtyard, a few half-dried clothes are dried on wooden shelves with bamboo poles. More than a dozen roosters, hens, and chicks leisurely paced back and forth in search of food. There were six or seven large and small goats in the fence at the corner. There are peach trees on both sides of the cave, and many peaches are still green on the trees.

When the young man pushed open a wooden gate and walked into the courtyard, Li Gongfu and the three of them also appeared behind a nearby tree hugged by several people.

When the boy had entered the courtyard, he hung the dead deer on a wooden stand in the corner, and then called out to the cave, "Mother, I am back!"

With the boy's cry, a good-looking woman who looked no more than thirty years old came out of the cave. She looked the young man up and down with loving eyes, and asked with concern, "Tian'er, how are things going?"

The young man pointed to the dead deer and smiled: "That big cat is also trustworthy, and today the thirtieth prey was presented on time." ”

The woman's brows furrowed slightly, and she said, "You have to keep your word, you made a promise with the tiger at the beginning, and now that it has paid its reward, you must fulfill your promise." Besides, letting that thing run rampant in this mountain forest is also a threat to our mother and son. It's just that that thing should be vicious, and you must be careful tonight. ”

The young man raised a fist and said with a smile: "Mother, don't worry, you don't know my skills, there is no accident in this matter." ”

The woman seemed to have believed in her son's power, and said nothing more than that.

Hearing this, Li Gongfu and the three of them almost understood. It turned out that the tiger had given the boy his prey to ask him to help deal with an unusually fierce enemy.

Seeing that the mother and son had already begun to cook, Li Gongfu stopped looking, and once again launched the wooden line to escape, leaving the mountains and forests with Xu Jiaorong and the crow's head, and returned to Lanruo Temple in an instant.

Seeing that the three of them had gone out for a long time before returning, Shifang came forward to inquire about the reason.

Li Gongfu said with a smile: "Shifang, you are sitting in Lanruo Temple, why don't you know that there is a strange person in the nearby mountains and forests?"

Shi Fang was stunned and said, "What does Brother Gongfu mean by this?"

Li Gongfu recounted to him what he had seen on this trip, and finally said: "That young man has the ability to subdue the tiger, naturally he is not an ordinary person, Shifang, have you never known the existence of this person?"

Shifang smiled bitterly and said: "Brother Gongfu should know that the poor monk has a lot of mundane affairs since he took over this Lanruo Temple, and he is negligent about other things. The two fire workers in my temple are locals, and the poor monks will come to them for inquiry. ”

After that, he summoned the two fire workers, relayed what Li Gongfu said, and asked, "Have you heard of the mother and son who live in the mountains before?"

The two Huogong Daoists glanced at each other, and one of them arched his hand upwards and said, "Zen Master Qiqi, if the villain guesses correctly, the young man they see should be 'Shi'er'." ”
