Lan Ke Qi Yuan Chapter 342: Legend of the Tiger Demon
"Rumble..." "Roar..."
The roar of the tiger was mixed with the thunder, and came from the depths of Niukui Mountain. By the time it reached the outside, the sound had weakened a lot, so it was overshadowed by a new round of thunder again.
The group of hunters carrying prey and mountain goods are on their way in a hurry. If there is a heavy rain at this time, the mountain will be wet, slippery and cold, and the road will be very difficult to walk. Maybe they will have to spend the night in the mountain.
"Rumble..."
A special echo came. The leading man stopped and looked back into the depths of Niukui Mountain. Looking from a distance, on the farthest mountain peak that could be seen clearly, many trees and bamboos were shaking, as if there was a burst of energy. A black wind swept out from the deep mountains.
"Ouch..."
Another voice came faintly, causing the leading hunter to have a strange hallucination in a trance. In his eyes, he seemed to see a gray mist rising into the sky in the distance at the other end of the mountain, and there were dark clouds in the sky. A huge beast's head formed underneath, roaring towards the thunderclouds in the sky.
"Hiss...!"
This scene made the man gasp subconsciously, and his legs seemed to be filled with lead and it was difficult to move.
A hunter suddenly realized that the leader had not followed him. He turned around and saw that the leader was stopping there and looking at the mountains, so he hurriedly asked.
"What are you looking at, head? Is there another prey?"
These words frightened the man and made him tremble. When he looked at the sky in the distance, there was no scene at all. It seemed to be a complete illusion. He came back to his senses and looked at the Orion beside him.
"It's okay, it's okay. Let's go quickly. We can't stop even if there is prey. We can't spend the night in the mountains!"
The leading man urged and started running again.
"Who wants to spend the night here when it's so cold?"
"But this time there is a lot of hunting, and the things are heavy!" "Run, run."
A group of men carried prey on their backs and kept shuttling through the mountains. Fortunately, although the dark clouds were getting bigger and bigger, and the thunder was very frequent and scary, it did not rain immediately, allowing the hunters to reach the bottom of the mountain smoothly.
A group of villagers had been waiting there for a long time at the entrance of the village, and they all screamed happily when they saw the hunters coming back.
"Look! We're back, lots of big stuff!" "Go and help."
"Look, look, there is a big insect in front of you!"
"Mom, big insect?" "No, no, don't talk nonsense, that's a big leopard!"
"Jackals, tigers, leopards, leopards and insects are almost the same."
"Yes, yes, they are all top quality leather!"
The family members of the hunters and the onlookers in the village all rushed out to help the hunters carry the prey. The heavy wild boars and brightly colored beasts were regarded by those who know the goods as plump meat and can be exchanged for money. of fur.
"Rumble..."
Thunder exploded again, and then the heavy rain finally fell. The hunters and their families and fellow villagers hurriedly fled home together.
The scale of the mountain village itself is not very large. Two wild boars were cooked that night. The plan was that every household in the village would be given wild boar meat, so that they could enjoy a meal of fresh game in early spring when they went home.
However, the leading Orion man had been feeling a little uneasy after he came back, so he decided to take his things with his wife and go to her natal home.
Carrying a pork chop and a wild boar front leg, along with his wife and children, the Orion man arrived at the home of the old village chief, his father-in-law.
The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law brought up steaming wild boar pork chops and wild boar meat. Before cooking, they rubbed spicy wild **** and wild pepper from the mountains to remove the smell to a large extent, but the front hoof was cooked separately. When the meal is rotten, put it in a big flower bowl.
"Come on, Dad, eat it while it's hot, your favorite front hoof meat!" "Yes, Dad, we specially kept it because it was rotten."
The daughter and son-in-law urged together with a smile.
"Hey, hey, you are filial!"
The old village chief said cheerfully, picked up a piece of hoof skin with chopsticks, and handed it to his little grandson.
"Ah~"
The latter opened his mouth wide and took the pig skin in one mouthful, puffing up his cheeks and chewing hard.
"Everyone sits down and everyone eats!"
The family sat around and used chopsticks. In addition to a pot of radish stew, the main items were two pots of pork and a pot of rice wine. This food was coveted by everyone in Ning'an County.
"Rumble..."
Thunder sounded again, but the people in the house were already used to it, and they all ate the meat and vegetables on the table by an oil lamp.
After eating for a while, the man poured wine for his father-in-law and asked the old man in a low voice.
"Dad, let me ask you something. I remember that when I was a child, Niu Kuishan seemed to have a monster for a while?"
"Hey, why are you talking about this!"
The mother-in-law next to her glared at her son-in-law, but the child became excited.
"Monsters? Do we have monsters here? What about gods and immortals?"
"Aren't all the gods in the temple? Eat yours."
The child's mother replied with a smile, picked up a piece of radish and stuffed it into the child's mouth, otherwise the little guy would have eaten all the meat.
"Dad, I vaguely remember that this happened when I was a child. The government seemed to..."
"That's right! Something similar happened back then."
The old village head has been the head of this mountain village for almost forty years. Every Li Zheng who has taken charge of the two surrounding villages has a good relationship with him, and he also remembers some important things in the past.
"Counting the years, it's almost twenty years!"
After saying this with emotion, the old village chief drank the rice wine in the small cup.
"Grandpa, grandpa, please tell me!"
The little grandson swallowed the radish and meat in his mouth, pushed away his mother's chopsticks and begged, and the Orion man quickly and diligently refilled his drink, and picked up a piece of elbow with the skin and meat on it.
"Okay, let me tell you!"
The old village chief took a sip of rice wine, put his elbow in his mouth, chewed and narrowed his eyes, as if he had returned to that period of panic.
"I can't remember the exact number of years. I guess it's almost twenty years. Your father was not much older than you at the time."
The old village chief pointed at his grandson and smiled.
"I remember that in those years, there was a tiger disaster in Niokui Mountain. For a while, the government recruited and organized hunters like me on the mountainside to go into the mountain to eliminate tigers..."
Eighteen years ago, in fact, not only the Niokuishan Ning'an County area next to Desheng Prefecture, but also the other two prefectures adjacent to Niokuishan County had a similar situation, but Ning'an County was more serious, and the old village chief also There is no news from such a distant place.
"I was still quite strong at that time, and we went into the mountains twice together. We also found a giant insect's nest and killed a giant insect with our own hands. However, we didn't find any human bones around it, but later... ”
The old village chief showed a hint of fear.
"As the old saying goes, the wind follows the tiger and the cloud follows the dragon. Everyone has heard of it, but no one has seen it, but we saw it that time!"
"That night, together with a total of thirty experienced hunters from neighboring villages, we stood guard in a deep mountain hill where we were sure tigers had been. The wind was clear and the moon was bright, but suddenly there was a strong wind. The mountains, rocks, and sand are alluring, and the roar of the tiger can be heard all at once. The roar is so frightening that even the bravest hunter will tremble!"
The little grandson has subconsciously moved closer to his mother, not even chewing the meat in his mouth.
"But we are all hunters, and we have to keep our composure no matter what, so no one said a word. However, the big insect seemed to know where we were, and it casually swooped down and captured a hunter from a neighboring village. The screams echoed all the way. We chased him out together, but there was no trace of him. What’s even weirder is..."
The old village chief deliberately approached his grandson.
"The wind has stopped!"
"Hey old man, why are you scaring the children? You are not serious!"
"Hehehe... the child doesn't like hearing this!"
“My little face turned pale with fright!”
The Orion man quickly served his father-in-law more wine.
"Dad, please continue."
"Well, we were a little lost when we came back and were scared enough. But no one can feel at ease until the man-eating tiger is eliminated. The government rewards are also huge, and even some martial arts officials are dispatched to prepare to work together, and some of us The hunter was not willing to give in, so he went again."
Speaking of this, the old village chief sighed.
"Hey... my brother also died that time. The tiger was really strange. It took two people away playfully, and even killed seven mountain hounds. The mountain wind carried it when it came and went, and its roar was even more evocative. After that, some old hunters and I were eliminated. We hunters are no match. From then on, no matter how hard the government lobbied, we would never enter the mountains..."
The old village chief took a sip of wine to calm down his shock.
"The story of the ferocious tiger in the mountains becoming a spirit began to spread after that time, but several villages here kept it secret. No one said anything for fear of attracting others."
"Later I heard that the government had posted the list, and also went to Desheng Mansion to ask for help to post the list. Then some powerful Jianghu heroes came. After all, the Jianghu people were so good at martial arts that they actually killed the tiger. , it is still a rare big white tiger. The skin has been on display at the gate of the county government for many days, and many people in our village have gone to see it. ”
The Orion man grabbed his chopsticks and frowned, drank the rice wine in his glass in one gulp, and asked.
"Dad, are you sure that tiger is really dead?"
"Is that still false? The big white tiger cannot stand up to two ordinary large insects. It is an absolute ferocious beast. And since then, Niu Kui Mountain has been peaceful. Not to mention the man-eating tigers, even ordinary large insects have hardly been seen. It’s on!”
The Orion man hesitated for a moment, lowered his body and asked again.
"Dad, is it possible that the tiger spirit is not dead yet?"
The old village chief's scalp numbed as a reflex, and he turned his head to look at his son-in-law.
"What are you talking about! Have you seen it?"
"No, no, look for Shuyuan www.zhaoshuyuan.com. It's just this time when I went down the mountain, the thunder sounded like a beast roaring, black clouds descended from the sky, and the wild beasts ran out from the mountains. In my heart, So scared..."
Both the old village chief and the man looked outside through the windows. They could not see very far due to the mountains, so they could only look towards the sky.
This moment.
"Crack...boom..."
The thunder was deafening, and a thick bolt of lightning seemed to be carrying three branches, and it fell straight into the mountain.
Everyone in the entire mountain village trembled at the same moment.
