Chapter two hundred and ninety seventh tiger poison eats children
…
"laugh…!"
The black ingot knife was so sharp that the tiger skin that a wooden spear could not penetrate was instantly cut open by it.
However, the tiger bones were very hard and were not cut off, which made Xu Junming a little disappointed.
After achieving his goal, he was not greedy for success, turned over and retreated, and quickly distanced himself.
The giant tiger fell to the ground, bent its left front paw, and almost fell down.
He stood upright tremblingly, staring at Xu Junming with his eyes, those eyes that chose others to devour were full of anger and bloodlust.
Holding the knife in his right hand, he stretched out his left hand and raised his fingers contemptuously.
"Are you coming over?"
"Roar…!"
With an angry roar, a black stream of light flew from the giant tiger's body and flew into the shadow of the nearby trees.
This shadow was inconspicuous, but as fast as lightning, it came behind Xu Junming in an instant.
Before the shadow could fall on his back, the black ingot sword flashed past, and the lightning flicked back.
The black shadow was instantly cut into two pieces.
A piercing scream sounded.
The black shadow fell to the ground and disappeared.
"A mere wandering spirit ghost wants to hurt me?"
Although his current strength is incomparable, the bronze mirror can see through the two realms of Yin and Yang and countless illusions.
Moreover, the black ingot knife in his hand is a real killing weapon.
Not to mention wandering souls, even fierce ghosts will suffer under this sword.
Seeing that the tried-and-tested move failed, the giant tiger roared angrily, glared at Xu Junming fiercely, then turned around and ran away.
However, Xu Junming cut off half of his front paw, causing his speed to drop significantly.
Moreover, after strenuous exercise, the two forks kept stirring in its abdominal cavity, and more and more blood flowed from its rear buttocks.
The combination of the two injuries caused the giant tiger, which was close to turning into a demon, to stagger.
"Escape? I spent so much effort to injure you, how could I let you jump away?"
He stepped forward like lightning and slashed towards the thick tiger tail with the black blade.
Seeing the long knife getting closer and closer to the tiger's tail.
Suddenly, the slow giant tiger turned around like lightning, opened its huge mouth, and bit Xu Junming's thigh.
The sudden increase shocked Xu Junming even though he had been prepared for it.
He drew his knife to block it and quickly retreated.
After pulling it 20 meters away, Xu Junming looked down and saw a ragged hole in the pants on his legs.
Cold sweat broke out on his forehead.
If he had hesitated just now, the leg would have been gone.
"What a cunning beast."
Seeing that the attack was in vain, the giant tiger turned around and ran towards the depths of the mountain forest. His speed increased several times.
Obviously the sudden slowdown just now was to lure him into taking the bait.
He followed up cautiously and saw that the giant tiger did not run towards his cave, but ran straight towards the depths of Luoxia Mountain.
His brows were furrowed.
"No, we can't let it escape."
He didn't know what stronger monsters there were in the depths of Luoxia Mountain, but this giant tiger definitely knew that if he were led to the lair of some giant monster, he would be in dire straits before his strength was restored.
After thinking about this clearly, Xu Junming's speed increased instantly.
Within a few minutes, he caught up with the giant tiger, whose injuries were getting more and more serious and his speed had slowed down.
He raised his knife and slashed straight towards its back.
Due to the injury to the rear buttocks, the giant tail as thick as a child's arm was most affected, and its power was reduced by more than half.
Compared with other parts, 'persimmons must be picked soft and pinched first'.
The giant tiger obviously also knew his own weakness. Feeling Xu Junming's sword energy, he swung his strong body to pass the blade, and grabbed his upper arm straight away.
He turned his palms to put away his sword, and raised fire to lift the sky.
The blade moved away from the tail and slashed diagonally downwards towards the right claw.
Originally, according to its speed, it could dodge the knife, but due to its injury, it suddenly slowed down a bit in the middle.
"laugh…!"
The skin is torn and the flesh is torn, and blood is flying.
A painful roar sounded.
Xu Junming made great achievements with one blow, and slashed continuously with his long sword. The sword's light flickered, never leaving the giant tiger's vitals.
Without his extraordinary speed, his tyrannical strength has no chance to be used.
As the injuries to its limbs became more and more serious, its speed became slower and slower.
"boom!"
After Xu Junming cut off the big tendons of its limbs, the giant tiger could no longer support itself and its heavy body fell to the ground.
Look at its eyes begging for mercy.
"You didn't even think about sparing those people you ate as food."
The black ingot knife cut it down mercilessly.
Blood flew everywhere, and the tiger head the size of a fence rolled to the side.
It was only then that Xu Junming finally breathed a sigh of relief.
He glanced at the four half-foot long blood marks on his chest and saw that the giant tiger had just fought back on the verge of death, almost disemboweling him.
Just as he was about to return the knife to its sheath, he suddenly stopped halfway.
"I feel like the blockade of this world seems to be missing a little bit!"
Xu Junming was excited.
What he desires most now is to regain his strength as soon as possible and reach new heights.
But after being in this world for half a year, no matter how hard he tried, there was nothing he could do.
Now that I have killed this giant tiger, I feel that the barrier between heaven and earth is lessened.
Although there is still a long way to go before the lockdown is completely lifted, what he wants to know most now is how to do it.
As long as you have a method, you will have a direction to work towards, which is a hundred times better than the blind man trying to fathom an elephant.
"What is the reason?"
After thinking hard for a long time, he finally came up with some clues, but whether it was true or not required additional verification.
He tied up the black ingot knife, picked up the huge tiger carcass, and carried the tiger head as big as a bucket in his right hand, and returned to the place where he laid the trap.
In the pit, a large wild boar nearly two meters long was already dead.
For Xu Junming, who was in urgent need of nutrition to repair his body, this wild boar was also a resource that he could not give up.
But now he can't afford so much meat.
After thinking for a moment, Xu Junming first carried the tiger carcasses and wild boar carcasses to the cave where he usually lived.
First, cut the wild boar carcass into pieces, roast it over fire, wrap it in leaves, and store it in a cool place in the innermost part of the cave.
In this way, the pork inside will not spoil in ten days and half a month.
As for the tiger corpse, there must be an explanation for Qiao Sanlang's death.
…
"I heard that Qiao Sanlang's wife is going to sell her daughter?"
Two villagers were sitting on the field, resting and chatting.
The tall farmer nodded and said.
"It is said that tigers are poisonous and cannot eat their children. Those women are really cruel. They are willing to sell such a filial and well-behaved child as Miss Qiao."
"Who says it's not the case? Although Sanlang is gone, he still has some family property left behind. As long as the mother-in-law is diligent and has help from the clan, it will be no problem to support the three of them, so why would she want to sell her daughter?!"
"I guess she wants to remarry. Erni is still young and not old enough to remember, so she doesn't have to choose anyone to remarry. But although Qiao is filial, she is ugly and has a lame leg. It will be difficult for her to get married in the future. Which family
Want a drag bottle like this?"
"Are you telling the truth?"
A rich voice suddenly sounded from behind the two of them.
Turn around and take a look.
A giant tiger came into view, approaching with a ferocious aura.
"Oh my mother!"
The two of them rolled and crawled, and after running for more than ten meters, they only regretted that their parents had lost two legs.
Xu Junming raised his foot and kicked, and the fist-sized clod of earth hit the two men's backs accurately.
There were two "pops" and the two fell to the ground.
Xu Junming stepped forward.
"I ask you, is what I just said true?"
The tall farmer nodded repeatedly, his teeth chattering.
"Big...big insect?"
He frowned and was too lazy to pay attention to them. He carried the tiger corpse and walked towards Qiaojia Village not far away.
Watching him go away, the two of them gradually recovered.
"That big insect seems to be dead?"
The short farmer nodded and said, "The one carrying the big insect seems to be Mr. Xu?"
"Mr. Xu? Mr. Xu who teaches? Wasn't he eaten by a big insect?"
Xu Junming went up the mountain to look for Qiao Sanlang and did not return for seven days. People in Qiaojia Village thought he had been eaten by a big insect.
"Idiot, didn't you see Mr. Xu carrying the corpse of the big insect?"
The tall farmer suddenly realized.
"It turns out that Mr. Xu killed that big insect!"
After realizing it, his face showed shock.
"Mr. Xu is so powerful?!"
"Let's go!"
The short farmer quickly got up from the ground.
"what?"
"Right now, Qiao Sanlang's wife is discussing business with Ren Yazi. It just so happens that Mr. Xu has returned from hunting tigers and there is a good show to watch." said the short farmer.
The tall farmer nodded and said, "Daughter Qiao was kind to Mr. Xu for saving her life. Over the years, Mr. Xu has repaid his kindness and taken great care of the Qiao family. Now he suddenly hears that Daughter Qiao is going to be sold, and he must be very angry."
broken."
"Needless to say, you can tell by looking at Mr. Xu's expression just now."
"Mr. Xu should be allowed to teach that shrew who is unscrupulous for profit." said the tall farmer.
"It's rare for such a happy thing to happen. Let's go back and take a look."
The two picked up their hoes and ran towards the village.
Xu Junming carried the tiger corpse and walked as fast as he could.
These days, he has been drinking tiger blood, and his physical body has healed a lot. His physique has greatly increased, and he can carry a thousand kilograms of tiger carcasses with ease.
He has been to Qiao Sanlang's house dozens of times and has become very familiar with it.
As soon as I turned the corner, I saw a lot of people standing in the familiar courtyard.
"Mother Qiao, Sanlang has just died, and you want to sell Qiao. You can't do this, right?"
The woman wears a patched gray-blue skirt and has a thorn hairpin in her hair, with a light of power in her eyes.
"Old patriarch, I don't want this either. But the backbone of our family is gone. How can we, the three of us, survive alone? Besides, look at Daughter Qiao."
The thick arms casually picked up the thin Qiao Nu, it felt like lifting a chicken that was about to be sold.
"She has been lame since she was little, and has a big blue spot on her face. She will never get married in the future. How many more years will I have to support such a loser?"
The woman rolled her eyes and had a philistine smile on her face.
"Patriarch, if the village can give daughter Qiao one bushel of white flour and two bushels of dried sweet potatoes a month, I will not sell her."
"One bushel of white flour? Two bushels of dried sweet potatoes? From the Sanlang family. You are too greedy! A strong laborer cannot eat so much in one month."
"Patriarch, this shrew is so ignorant, we must not agree to him."
The people around him were furious.
"Stop arguing."
The old patriarch shouted angrily, and everyone stopped.
"Mother Qiao, the people in the village are not well-off, and there is still room for a bushel of dried sweet potatoes. A bushel of white flour, who in the entire Qiaojia Village can eat white flour every day?"
"It doesn't matter if you don't have flour. It's twenty taels of silver. If I sell this girl, it's the same as the money."
"Twenty taels of silver! Why don't you go and steal it, you shrew?"
"I think she is crazy about money. She even sold her own daughter."
In the face of ridicule from everyone, the woman did not show any stage fright.
"I am willing to sell the daughter I gave birth to, and you have nothing to do with it."
