"You......... I have lived in this ancient village all my life, how can you say such a thing. Xiaohu has never hurt anyone, the game you eat every day is brought by Xiaohu, why didn't you say that it was a beast of prey at that time. Grandpa was so angry by the village chief's words that his chest hurt, and he clutched his chest and angrily scolded the villagers.

"Grandpa, grandpa. Xiao Wang hurriedly hugged his grandfather and stroked his chest.

"Uncle Village Chief, Xiaohu has never done anything to hurt the village, why do you turn your face and deny people like this. ”

"Hmph!" the village chief snorted coldly, ignored Xiao Wang's reprimand, and instructed the villagers next to him: "Do it." ”

"No!

Xiao Wang and Grandpa stood in front of Xiaohu and blocked the villagers with open hands, but how could they stand up to the people of this village!

In the face of the heavy attacks of the villagers, Xiao Wang couldn't stop them at all. After several battles, Xiao Wang and his grandfather both fell to the ground.

Xiaohu was tied with a rope by the villagers, and could only let out a low howl from his throat. It saw Xiao Wang and his grandfather being knocked to the ground, and kept struggling, anxiously trying to break free from the rope, but the more it struggled, the tighter the rope became, and the skin had been cut by the rope, oozing blood.

"Xiaohu, don't move, you're bleeding!" Xiao Wang lay on the ground and looked at Xiaohu distressedly.

As soon as Xiao Wang's words fell, Lao Liu, who had just lost his grandson, raised the shovel in his hand and smashed it on Xiaohu's head.

"Ahh

"Don't!"

The shovel landed on the little tiger's head, and blood burst out instantly.

"Kill it, kill it!"

The villagers began to fall frantically with the weapons in their hands, except for the little prince and grandson, everyone participated, and everyone was stained with the blood of the little tiger.

"Stop, stop fighting!" shouted Grandpa to stop the mad villagers.

After a few minutes, the struggling little tiger gradually calmed down and fell to the ground motionless.

"Dead!hahahaha, dead! brute!"

Only then did the villagers lay down their weapons.

"Little Tiger!" Xiao Wang crawled to Xiaohu's side, looked at Xiaohu who was beaten to the point that he was no longer in shape, hugged Xiaohu in distress, and cried loudly.

"You murderers!," Grandpa slowly stood up from the ground, tearfully pointing at the village chief and the villagers.

The village chief glanced at the grandson impatiently, waved his hand and said, "Okay, throw this beast into the forest, so that it can also taste the feeling of being bitten and eaten." ”

"You ......"

"Grandpa!"

Grandpa Xiao Wang was spit out of his mouth by a mouthful of blood from the village chief, and then fell to the ground.

"Alas," Brother Wang sighed, took the wine jug in Mu Chen's hand, drank it with a bang, and continued: "Xiaohu was thrown into the forest by them, and my grandfather became worse and worse after this incident, and left within a few years. ”

"This is happening. Mu Chen put his hand on Wang Orion's shoulder, and his mood was quite heavy.

The dismemberment on the side suddenly asked: "Brother Wang, you just said that there is a tiger in the forest, isn't it the little tiger back then, but in fact, it is not dead?"

"Hmm...... Wang Orion nodded, "It's Xiaohu." ”

"Are the villagers afraid of the little tigers in the forest today?" asked Mu Chen.

Wang Orion then nodded, "Well, they're afraid that Little Tiger will come back and take revenge. ”

"After the tiger was thrown into the forest, I went to look for it several times, but I couldn't find its body, and I thought that the tiger had been eaten by wild beasts. ”

"Until a week later, a black panther covered in blood collapsed at the entrance of the village, and the panther was disemboweled, and a child's arm was peeking out of the panther's belly. ”

"Was it the villager kid who was eaten? It turned out to be eaten by a black panther. Mu Chen asked.

"Yes, everything that happened in the village was done by that panther. ”

After the villagers gathered at the entrance of the village, a fierce tiger roar came from the mountain, and everyone knew that it was the howl of the little tiger. It didn't die, and found the real murderer, throwing it in front of everyone. ”

"After I knew that the little tiger was not dead, I went up the mountain several times to look for it, and I saw the little tiger, but when I tried to get closer, it kept backing and refused to go back with me. Wang Orion said lonely.

"What happened later, Brother Wang, you should finish it quickly!"

"Ah Li. Mu Chen glanced at Broken Away and stopped him.

Breaking away from scratching his head, seeing Wang Orion's expression, he quickly apologized: "Brother Wang, I'm sorry." ”

"It's nothing," Wang Orion reluctantly broke away and smiled, "The villagers deserve it!"

At that time, after the villagers knew that they had wronged Xiaohu, some felt guilty in their hearts, but some people were even more afraid.

They thought that the little tiger would not die, and there must have been a lot of complaints about the villagers, and the little tiger who was only a few months old was able to kill an adult black panther, which shows the ferocity. If Xiaohu comes back to retaliate, it will be terrible.

So, the village chief organized the village to lay traps at the entrance of the forest, in order to prevent the little tiger from descending the mountain.

The villagers thought it would be safe, until two years later, when Grandpa Wang died, and when the funeral was held that day, Xiaohu, who had grown into an adult tiger, stood at the entrance of the village.

Xiaohu stood in front of his grandfather's coffin, silently lowered his head and rubbed the coffin, just like rubbing his grandfather's trouser leg when he was a child. Xiaohu whined in his mouth, and a few tears fell on the coffin.

Then, Xiaohu slowly raised his head and roared angrily at the villagers in front of him.

When the wind passed, the villagers opened their eyes and saw that the little tiger was gone.

Since then, the villagers have become even more afraid of the little tiger, and no one can enter the forest except Wang Hunting, not even up the mountain.

Of course, there will be some people who don't believe in evil who want to try, but as soon as those people enter, they will go crazy inexplicably, saying nonsense: "The god of the forest, the god of the forest is coming to punish us, and it is coming back to take revenge!"

Then, the next night, there will be an inexplicable torrential rain and a mudslide, and the old village will naturally be the place where the disaster occurs.

"At that time, because I was the only one who could enter the forest, the village chief and the villagers came and asked me to go up the mountain with a few men with shotguns and kill Xiaohu. ”

"Hmph, they are really sick, how could I agree to such a request, as long as they don't go up the mountain to provoke Xiaohu, Xiaohu will not threaten them. ”

"In the end, it became like this, they did not dare to go up the mountain, nor did they dare to let me take strangers up the mountain at will, so as not to anger the forest god, Little Tiger. ”

After Wang Orion finished speaking, Li Dongyi asked worriedly: "Then we will go into the mountain this time, will we anger it?"

"No, it won't. As long as you follow me, Xiaohu won't do anything to you. ”

After listening to this story, the mood of the people present was much heavier, and they did not know the good luck when they entered the mountain this time.

"Let's go to sleep, rest early, and leave early tomorrow. Wang Orion said.

"Well, Ah Li and I will stay for the first half of the night, and we will call you in the second half of the night. Mu Chen said to Sima Yang and Wang Orion.

In order to ensure safety, Mu Chen and the others decided to take turns keeping vigil.

Mu Chen and Duan Sheli continued to sit by the campfire to roast the fire, and the others went into the tent and turned off the lights and went to sleep.

The night wind is cold in autumn, and the wind blows the flames.

He put his hands to his mouth and exhaled, and then put his hands on the fire and rubbed them vigorously.

"It's too cold. ”

She looked at Mu Chen next to him, and saw Mu Chen sitting motionless on the carpet and meditating.

"Mu Chen, aren't you cold?"

Mu Chen slowly opened his eyes and calmly spit out a few words: "Calm down, don't move." The more shivering, the colder it gets. After saying that, he closed his eyes again.

Breaking away from the pout, he learned Mu Chen to close his eyes and start meditating. The ears are attentive to the movements around them.

Before you know it, five hours have passed, and the surroundings are very quiet.

Breaking away from the tent couldn't hold on for a long time and fell asleep on the ground, Mu Chen shook his head helplessly, got up lightly and walked around the tent, making sure that there was nothing to do, and woke up the sleeping Broken Away.

"Ah Li, wake up, go back to the tent and sleep. ”

"Hmm......" Break Break muttered as he got up from the ground, "we're done?"

Mu Chen nodded and said, "Well, go and call Brother Wang and Sima Yang up, it's time for them to keep vigil." ”

As soon as he was about to get up, he suddenly asked, "Mu Chen, wouldn't there be anything wrong with letting Sima Yang keep vigil?"

"Probably not, isn't there still Brother Wang? We'll know what happened. ”

"Go and wake them up, I'm sleepy. It's good for you to say it's a vigil, and you sleep like a dead pig. ”

Scratching his head embarrassedly, he walked into Sima Yang and Wang Orion's tent.

After waking up Sima Yang and Wang Orion, Mu Chen lay down in the tent, put on a pillow and fell asleep.

At seven o'clock in the morning, it was already dawn, and the sun was peeking out of the eastern hills.

"It looks like it's a sunny day, and the weather is nice. Li Dongyi, who woke up, poked his head out of the tent and squinted his eyes.

When he put on his coat and walked out of the tent, he found that the bonfire in front of him had long been extinguished, leaving a pile of dead branches scattered on the ground.

"Why didn't anyone add fire?" Li Dong said casually, and immediately noticed that something was wrong, Sima Yang and Wang Orion were gone.

"Oh no, no. Li Dongyi hurriedly woke up the others in the tent, "Hurry up, Sima Yang and Brother Wang are gone!"

"What?!"

Hearing Li Dongyi's shout, Mu Chen hurriedly ran out of the tent.

"What's going on?"

"I woke up in the morning and found that they were gone, and I looked into the woods and didn't see them. Li Dongyi said anxiously.

Mu Chen looked around, and after everyone arrived, he squatted beside the bonfire and said, "Judging from this fire, it should have been more than two hours since it was gone." ”

"Hmph, I'll just say this kid isn't a good guy. He said angrily.

"Alas, it's useless to say this now, they're gone. Li Dongyi sighed.

Wuyu on the side couldn't believe that his brother, whom he trusted so much, would do this, "How could Sima Yang do this, did I really misunderstand him?"

"Don't you think there's anything unusual about him this time?" asked Jie Shuli.

Wuyu nodded, but shook his head in embarrassment, "I think he's getting more gloomy now, but I just think he's become like this because of what he went through." I never expected him to do anything bad for us. ”

"Okay, Ah parted. This incident is not the fault of Brother Wuyu, it is that we are careless and not vigilant enough. ”

Mu Chen patted Wuyu's shoulder as he spoke, comforting him.
