Chapter 337 Searching for someone
The two arrows hit the tiger's waist and shoulder respectively. When the tiger fell to the ground, it was already unstable.
The pain of the arrows piercing its flesh made it want to kill all the prey in front of it.
Unfortunately, during the time it was escaping, the toxin had already spread throughout its body through its blood.
At this moment, its limbs were somewhat out of control, and it had no strength left in its body, and it was even swaying as it stood there.
Seeing its state, an idea flashed through the minds of Lu Qingqing and Master Yan.
Kill it while it's sick!
Several people immediately rushed forward with knives in their hands, and several knives were inserted into the tiger's neck, abdomen and other parts at the same time.
"roar~"
The tiger held its head high and let out the last howl of its life.
Seeing that the tiger was no longer breathing, several knives were pulled out at the same time.
In an instant, blood spurted out and the tiger's body fell to the ground with a "thump".
Streams of blood flowed out from the wound, onto the ground, dyeing the snow underneath red.
Seeing that the tiger was dead, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
After relaxing, Lu Qingqing felt that the arm holding the knife was trembling slightly.
The situation was too urgent just now, so she used all her strength every time.
She was finally safe now. Feeling tired, she stuck the knife into the ground and leaned on it to rest.
Qin Lang, who was standing next to her, saw this and walked over to her and put his arm around her shoulders.
Lu Qingqing felt someone approaching, turned around and saw it was him, her tense body relaxed, and she leaned most of her weight on him.
The young man was tall and strong, and the arms he embraced were particularly powerful.
His breathing was still a little rapid due to the intense tiger hunting action just now.
Lu Qingqing took the water bag from her waist, turned sideways to avoid the light, and directly replaced the water bag with the one in the space.
She prepared many identical water bags, all filled with warm space water, for use at times like this.
She pulled down her scarf, took a few sips of space water, and handed it to Qin Lang next to her.
While the two were drinking water, the villagers behind them also came over.
They didn't dare get too close to the tiger, and asked in a low voice from a distance:
"Is the tiger dead?"
"Totally dead!"
As Master Yan replied, he took the knife and rubbed the blood stains on it into the thick layer of snow on the ground.
After receiving the accurate news, a group of villagers all breathed a sigh of relief.
"Great! The beast is finally dead!"
"Yeah, now I don't have to worry anymore!"
"..."
Suddenly, three men in the crowd rushed up and started punching and kicking the tiger's body.
Liangzi wanted to hit the tiger's body with a hoe, but was stopped by Village Chief Yang.
"Liangzi, the tiger is dead!
Now, this tiger's skin is the only thing worth money, so we can't harm it!"
Liangzi was stopped and the hoe in her hand fell to the ground.
He fell to his knees and cried bitterly:
"Woo woo woo, it was this beast who killed my father!"
Seeing the three brothers crying bitterly, Village Chief Yang didn't know what to say.
Their father was indeed dragged away by that beast. Everyone knew it in their hearts, and he was probably dead!
After crying for a few times, the eldest brother Dongzi bowed to Village Chief Yang, Lu Qingqing and others behind him and said earnestly:
"My father was dragged into the mountains by this beast, and I need your help in finding him!"
Liangzi listened to his elder brother's words and reacted, and said hurriedly:
"Yes, I'll have to trouble you all for help!
I'll ask my wife to prepare some food, and when you all come down the mountain at dawn, come to my house for breakfast."
When Dongzi heard him say this, he counted the number of people in his mind and felt heartbroken.
This time, almost all the men in the village went up the mountain. Even if they were frugal, they would still have to eat half a bag of food for breakfast.
Even steaming multi-grain steamed bread requires a lot of multi-grain.
They haven't separated yet, and the food they eat is also his!
But Liangzi had already spoken, and he couldn't refute it.
Besides, we really need the villagers’ help in finding it.
Otherwise, the three brothers would never dare to go into the mountains to look for someone.
Dongzi had a lot of thoughts in his mind, but he could only remain silent.
In the crowd, the men all responded enthusiastically when they heard that they could have a free breakfast.
Anyway, we have come this far, and I think the tiger's cave should be not far from here.
Moreover, each animal in the mountains and forests has its own territory.
Tigers occupy this place, so there should be no large beasts!
After hearing what Liangzi said and observing the attitudes of the men in the crowd, Village Chief Yang continued:
"That's great, we can have a hot breakfast once we get down the mountain!
Everyone, hurry up and use the nearest roads to look for him. The sooner we find him, the sooner we can get down the mountain!"
After everyone agreed, Village Chief Yang began to make arrangements and divided the personnel into several small teams.
One of the teams stayed on the spot, responsible for finding branches to make pallets to facilitate transporting the tiger down the mountain.
The remaining teams quickly dispersed and headed in various directions.
Lu Qingqing, Qin Lang and Master Yan formed a team, with Master Yan walking in front holding a torch.
The higher we went, the stronger the wind became. One gust of wind almost blew out the torch.
Master Yan had no choice but to hold the torch behind him and wait for the wind to pass before continuing forward.
In this way, everyone walked and stopped, following the tiger's paw prints and went straight in.
When encountering a steep slope, Master Yan suddenly slipped and was about to fall.
He reacted very quickly, grabbed the rope beside him, and then slowly stood up.
There was a ditch next to him, and it would be troublesome if he really fell into it!
This scared everyone, and Luo Zhengye behind him was the first to support Master Yan.
The fellow disciples behind him also wanted to come forward to help, but were stopped by Master Yan.
"Hold on to the ropes tightly, follow my steps, and don't wander off!"
After hearing this, everyone became more careful, tightened the ropes around them, and walked forward in a single line.
After climbing up the steep slope, Master Yan untied the rope around his waist and tied it to a tree above.
Chai Quan, who was at the end of the team, untied the rope from the tree where it was originally tied.
Everyone pulled the rope and continued to climb up.
Not long after everyone climbed the steep slope, the tiger's footprints entered a cave.
The top of the cave is sheltered, with only a little snow at the entrance, and the rest is rocky.
Master Yan held up a torch and looked inside, but the torch could only reveal what was happening nearby.
Further in, it was pitch black and unclear.
As he walked in, he held the big knife across his body to deal with emergencies.
Lu Qingqing and his fellow disciples also followed behind with swords in hand.
There were a lot of gravel on the ground, and shoes made slight noises when they stepped on them.
When turning the corner, the entire view of the cave appeared before everyone.
The light in the cave was dim, and since they were a little far away, they could only see that the middle of the cave was relatively flat and there was not much debris.
The surroundings of the cave were pitch black and difficult to see clearly.
Master Yan continued to walk inside holding a torch. Lu Qingqing followed behind and suddenly smelled a bloody smell.
Before she could open her mouth to remind him, Li Rui in front of her exclaimed!
“Human, human head!”
