Chapter 9, watching the tiger fight in the forest
After another two busy days, Shangguan Yun finally collected the ripe Moon Spirit Grass and Qingyu Hu, packed it in a special container that Zhao Lao Wei had prepared a long time ago, and sent it to the special herb storage cave in the valley. The pen "Fun" www.biquge.info Pavilion felt that he could finally rest, Shangguan Yun decided to go up the mountain to relax first, and then go to the lower courtyard to collect the silver and contributions of the past few months, and look at the Tibetan Scripture Pavilion to see what books he could change, because the "Thick Earth Formula" and "Immortal Materia Medica" at hand have now been read, and they are no longer attractive to him. Of course, he still thought about going to the town to exchange the iron-tired bow he had long-awaited for a long time, it was a sharp weapon for hunting!
In the early morning of the next day, Shangguan Yun packed up and went into the mountains and forests early in the morning, and he was already familiar with the nearby mountains and forests, and this time he decided to go deeper into the dense forests.
The back mountain of Qingniu Mountain is a reckless primitive mountain forest, with a radius of no less than thousands of miles, and those deepest mountain forests are said to be the territory of some demon beasts, except for some immortals who have cultivated to a high level, few people dare to go deep into it on weekdays.
Shangguan Yun had already traveled nearly a hundred miles to these dense forests, which had taken him a whole day. As an experienced hunter, he knew that most animals could not live without water, and walking along the river would also increase the chances of catching prey. Sure enough, on the way, Shangguan Yun easily hunted a male deer drinking alone by the river, but the deer body had been abandoned by him, and he just carefully put away the antler velvet and deer skin.
That night, Shangguan Yun finally found a good place for hunting, which was a relatively gentle valley between two high mountains, and there was a small waterhole in the valley, and the grass on the edge of the waterhole was relatively sparse and low, so that the surrounding view was exceptionally good. Such a geographical location will undoubtedly make the animals feel more at ease to drink water, and it is definitely a good place for hunters to ambush. At this moment, Shangguan Yun was hiding on a tall tree one mile away from the waterhole, and there was a temporary platform built with tree branches three zhang above the ground, which was his hiding place and his resting place.
After practicing on the tree all night, Guan Yun's eyes widened the next morning, patiently waiting for the arrival of the prey, but for some reason, for a whole day, he didn't wait for a suitable prey, Shangguan Yun couldn't help but wonder in his heart, could it be that it is not safe for the animals here?
At dusk, Shangguan Yun, who was already a little slack, was suddenly attracted by a gust of wind, which was quite strange, suddenly sounded in a quiet, and there was a sharp whistle, which was obviously not a natural wind, and it also had a faint fishy smell.
There is a big beast! Shangguan Yun immediately understood, and stared at the place where the wind came from with wide eyes.
"The clouds are from the dragon, and the wind is from the tiger. "Could it be a tiger here?" Shangguan Yun was a little excited and a little nervous. In Hengyunling, he and his father had seen leopards many times, but they had never seen a real tiger.
At this time, there was a sudden swaying in the woods dozens of feet away, and it was not long before a huge head poked out of the forest, only to see that there was a huge long mouth on this head, and in that long mouth there were two sickle-like fangs that were nearly two feet long and turned upward, and then up was a pair of egg-sized beast eyes, which flashed with green light, and was constantly looking left and right.
Shangguan Yun was stunned, when did a boar make such a big noise? Hey, no, how could there be such a big boar, this is more than twice the size of the ordinary boar!
Sure enough, after looking around, the body behind the beast's head gradually revealed its full appearance, good guy, this body size has caught up with a cow! Shangguan Yun carefully looked at this huge boar, only to see that its mane was like an iron thorn, and its whole body was like being wrapped in pine oil, emitting a kind of black light, which was extremely terrifying, especially the two triangular eyes and scimitar-like teeth, revealing a murderous smell everywhere.
Could this be a demon beast? Shangguan Yun couldn't help but think about it in his heart, looked down at the birch bow in his hand, and said in his heart, Damn, this thing is not enough to tickle that guy.
Suddenly, the boar was approaching the waterhole, and as he drank his water carefully, he was panting heavily, and one hoof was still scraping on the ground, as if he was very uneasy.
Is it scared? Is there any other big guy here?
Before Shangguan Yun could finish thinking about it, he saw a golden light, like a meteor, leaping up from the grass not far from the boar, rushing towards the boar, and biting the boar's neck with one bite! Tiger! It was indeed a fierce tiger! Shangguan Yun's heart was shocked! No wonder there were no other animals here!
"Whew-"
The boar was suddenly attacked, roared, twisted in anger, and lowered its head to the tiger's waist and abdomen. The tiger had already taken precautions, and before the boar arrived, the upper body suddenly stood up, and a tiger's paw slapped the top of the boar's head, and the boar rolled over on the spot, and fell out of a foot away.
Shangguan Yun only saw clearly at this time that the tiger that attacked the mountain boar was two feet long, with yellow and black stripes, black as ink, yellow but bright as gold, and the most peculiar thing was that the word "king" on the tiger's forehead was completely composed of snow-like white hair, which was extraordinarily majestic, and it seemed that it was by no means an ordinary tiger, and it was clearly a demon beast.
At this time, the two demon beasts looked at each other and kept letting out a low roar, and the blood from the boar's neck was already flowing out, obviously injured, but it looked more ferocious.
"One tiger, two bears and three pigs" Shangguan Yun knows the ferocity of these three animals, especially this desperate mountain boar, and it is the master who never dies.
At this moment, the boar had already launched an attack, and with an afterimage, it rushed towards the tiger at an unexpected speed, and knocked the unprepared tiger directly away.
This is definitely a demon beast!!Shangguan Yun immediately understood, such a speed was clearly a skill driven by aura!
"Roar" was knocked out of the two feet away from the tiger was furious, one jumped in front of the boar, the two front paws pressed the boar, and bit the boar's neck again, the boar did not show weakness, four-legged force, twisted its body again and again tried to crash into the belly of the tiger.
In the dust, the two demon beasts were entangled and scuffled, and in an instant, Shangguan Yun could no longer see the figures of the two demon beasts clearly, only to hear the roars of the flying dust.
After about half an hour, the roar gradually weakened, and the dust gradually settled, and Shangguan Yun saw the situation in the field again.
The boar had fallen to the ground, and the tiger had suffered many injuries, his hair was very messy, and there were several wounds with blood flowing from it, and at this moment, he was lying in the grass and resting.
Shangguan Yun didn't dare to come out, he just wanted to wait for the tiger to leave with the prey, and then left quietly, but he didn't expect that the tiger just lay quietly, licking his wounds and hair, and didn't leave all night, and it seemed that he was exhausted.
The next morning, the tiger finally moved, but did not leave, but devoured the boar on the spot, and waited until it had eaten half of the boar before turning around and leaving. After waiting for more than half an hour, Shangguan Yun dared to quietly slide down from the tree, with this tiger here, he didn't dare to stay here for anything.
After hesitating under the tree for a long time, Shangguan Yun finally mustered up the courage to quietly move to the corpse of the boar, how could he be reluctant to let go of that pair of fangs, if he used that thing to make bone arrows, it was a good thing!
Step by step, finally there was still a dozen zhang away from the boar's carcass, Shangguan Yun took a closer look around and found that there was no movement, so he rushed over in one breath, pulled out the hunting knife on his waist and wanted to cut off the boar's head, who expected that the boar had thick skin and strong bones, and it took dozens of knives in a row, and it took a lot of effort to finally succeed. Afraid that the demon tiger would turn back again, Shangguan Yun picked up the pig's head and turned around and ran, running out of four or five miles in one breath before he sat down and took a breath, and he also lost the second layer of his qi training period, and his physical strength was much better than before, otherwise this pig's head would have weighed nearly a hundred catties, and he would have been tired and lying down.
Not long after resting, he faintly heard a tiger roar coming from a distance, Shangguan Yun thought to himself, it was estimated that the tiger turned back and found that someone had moved its prey, so he jumped up from the ground, carried the pig's head on his back and continued to run. In order to hide his breath, Shangguan Yun simply jumped into the stream, and ran wildly along the stream with one foot deep and one shallow foot, and he didn't know how many falls he had along the way, and he also added a lot of wounds on his body that were cut by rocks.
Running all the way until dark, Shangguan Yun found that he had lost his strength, and it was estimated that the demon tiger must not be chasing him, otherwise he would have been caught up a long time ago, Shangguan Yun was tired and found a stone cave under a cliff to prepare for the night rest. lit a bonfire at the entrance of the cave, took off his clothes and roasted them, and nibbled on a few mouthfuls of dry food, Shangguan Yun felt that the bones in his body were about to fall apart, but as soon as he saw the huge pig's head on the ground and the scimitar-like fangs, he was so beautiful in his heart that he forgot all the pain in an instant.
"Hey, my strength is too poor, when I encounter such a demon beast, I don't have the ability to save my life at all!" Thinking of today's encounter, Shangguan Yun couldn't help but muttered to himself, thinking that he had to go back and practice hard, and this hunting knife and white birch bow should also be replaced, these things are completely useless when they encounter demon beasts!
