And so, while they waited anxiously, the sky began to rain as promised, first a light drizzle, then a heavier downpour...

Xu Han stood in the main room, gazing outwards as if trying to see through the scenery before her...

Meanwhile, Lu Chuan was also hurrying home!

It turned out that Lu Chuan had discovered the tiger's tracks on the fourth day.

That day, Lu Chuan searched for the tiger's shadow as carefully as before, and finally found the tiger drinking water by a stream!

Surprisingly, the tiger was injured at this time.

Lu Chuan guessed that the tiger's original territory had been taken away by other tigers, which led to its current predicament.

Although the tiger was seriously injured, its strength should not be underestimated, and we still cannot let our guard down.

Perhaps because they had just arrived in new territory, the tiger remained highly vigilant, and Lu Chuan had no opportunity to make a move. He waited until the seventh day!

That afternoon, Lu Chuan had Black Wind carry the prey towards the trap. When they were almost there, Black Wind quickly hid. Lu Chuan also injured one of the roe deer's legs and placed it near the trap.

Living creatures are better able to attract tigers! So the tiger was lured into the trap that had already been dug.

While the tiger was trapped, Lu Chuan, who was hiding in a tree, quickly shot arrows, and every arrow hit the tiger.

The tiger that fell into the trap was extremely angry and roared several times. It was also hit by an arrow, which completely enraged the tiger!

The tiger, disregarding everything, tried to climb out of the trap. Although the trap contained sharp bamboo spikes, they did not injure the tiger's vital organs.

Just as the tiger was about to climb out of the trap, Lu Chuan hurriedly jumped down from the tree and used the machete he carried to slash at the tiger's neck. However, the blow did not kill the tiger instantly.

Despite Lu Chuan's best efforts, the tiger's hide was still very thick! Although not fatal, it did injure the tiger's vital organs!

The tiger in the trap saw Lu Chuan and realized that it had been harmed by this human! It immediately opened its blood-red mouth and pounced on Lu Chuan, who quickly dodged.

Turning around, it slashed at the tiger's back again, while Black Wind stepped forward to tear at the tiger's body.

Unfortunately, the tiger was still trapped inside the trap and had not come out. The trap had greatly hindered the tiger's movement.

This gave Lu Chuan another chance to attack. In addition, Tiger had been injured before and was severely weakened. It didn't take long for him to gradually give up.

Eventually, the tiger lost all its breath due to excessive blood loss...

At this moment, Lu Chuan was also panting heavily from exhaustion, and he plopped down on the ground to rest!

I looked up at the sky; the sun was already beginning to set. It seemed I wouldn't be able to go back today. I had already missed the time I had agreed to meet Xu Han.

My wife must be so worried about me not coming home! I've broken my promise again...

It's getting dark, and we've hunted another tiger. It's too dangerous to head back now, so we'll have to wait until tomorrow morning and set off early!

After resting, Lu Chuan got the tiger out of the trap. The tiger was too big and had fallen into the trap, so it was not easy to get it out. It took a long time to drag the tiger out.

After restoring the trap to normal, Lu Chuan dragged the tiger back to their temporary cave...

The next morning, just as dawn was breaking, Lu Chuan began his return journey, dragging Tiger along! Halfway there, looking at the dark clouds in the sky, Lu Chuan couldn't help but frown slightly, and a sense of urgency rose within him.

Please, please don't let it rain now! Let it rain when I get home, otherwise I won't be able to get home!

They prayed as they hurried on their way, skipping lunch and focusing solely on getting faster! Faster!

But heaven did not hear Lu Chuan's prayers, and it started to drizzle when Lu Chuan was almost home.

Then the rain intensified. Lu Chuan glanced at the distance getting closer to home, decided not to stop for shelter, and continued walking forward!

He took out his own package, tied it to Black Wind, and sent Black Wind home to let Xu Han know he was safe! He then walked slowly behind.

Xu Han, who was looking around in the yard, suddenly heard Hei Feng's cry. She immediately put on her raincoat and went outside. As soon as she stepped out of the yard, she saw Hei Feng running towards her, but Lu Chuan was not behind her. Her heart suddenly tightened.

Seeing the package tied to Hei Feng again, and realizing that Lu Chuan was not in danger, she finally felt relieved!

Remove the bundle from Black Wind's body and let Black Wind take you to find Lu Chuan.

After walking for about 15 minutes, I saw Lu Chuan in the rain and quickly ran over to him!

Lu Chuan also saw Xu Han and quickly called out, "Be careful, the road is slippery, don't fall."

Xu Han ignored him and ran straight to Lu Chuan, took out an umbrella from her spatial storage, opened it, and handed it to him.

With a sob in her voice, she said, "Why are you only coming back now? I was so worried! You promised seven days! You lied to me again!"

Hearing Xu Han's tearful complaint, Lu Chuan knew he had frightened her. He quickly coaxed her in a low voice, "I'm sorry, honey, it's all my fault for making you worry. You can hit me or scold me as you please, I won't fight back!"

Xu Han ignored him, looked Lu Chuan up and down, and only when she saw that there was nothing wrong with him did she feel completely relieved.

"I'll settle the score with you when we get back!" Xu Han replied.

Looking back, he noticed the tiger carcass behind Lu Chuan and was startled.

She instantly realized the danger Lu Chuan had faced these past few days and couldn't help but feel sorry for him!

Turning to Lu Chuan, he said, "I'll put the tiger into my spatial storage first, let's go home!"

The two arrived home together, and Xu Han scooped out some hot water that had been boiling in the pot, telling Lu Chuan to take a hot shower first.

Although the weather is gradually getting warmer, it can still be quite chilly on rainy days. Take a hot bath to avoid catching a cold!

Lu Chuan went to take a shower, and Xu Han didn't sit idle either. She prepared the clothes Lu Chuan needed to change into and handed them to him.

She turned and went to the kitchen to boil a pot of ginger soup so that they could both have some to warm themselves up.

After Lu Chuan finished showering, Xu Han also took a shower. Although she had just put on a raincoat, the rain was so heavy that her clothes still got wet!

After they both finished washing up, they snuggled together in the kitchen to warm up. When they learned that Lu Chuan hadn't eaten yet, they immediately took out the mutton soup from their spatial storage, which would warm them up.

They didn't cook dinner, and after their hair dried, the two went to bed early.

Xu Han didn't ask about what happened in the mountains. He must be exhausted after living alone in the mountains for so many days. She let Lu Chuan rest first and they would talk about it tomorrow.

The next morning, when I woke up, it was still raining, and Lu Chuan beside me was still asleep.

Looking down, Xu Han noticed an unnatural flush on the man's face. Her first thought was, "Oh no, he has a fever!"
