Chapter 88



Wen Nuan ran towards the direction where the gunfire came from, and the dead branches and leaves under her feet made a rustling sound.

Her heartbeat accelerated rapidly, she was nervous and excited, and the possible confrontation between man and tiger kept appearing in her mind.

When she arrived near the scene, she hid behind a big tree and looked around.

In the open space, I saw a burly middle-aged man holding a hunting rifle with puffs of smoke coming out of the muzzle.

땤Not far away, a huge tiger was pacing back and forth.

Its eyes were fixed on the man, and from time to time it let out a low roar, as if it was looking for an opportunity to attack.

A deer had fallen beside the man, probably the result of the hunt just now, and it was the deer that attracted the tiger.

She didn't even dare to move, she knew the situation was about to explode.

At this moment, the tiger suddenly leaped up and rushed towards the man with its bloody mouth wide open.

The man quickly turned sideways, and the bullet flew past the tiger's fur. The tiger fell heavily to the ground, stirring up a cloud of dust.

It shook its head angrily and turned to rush at it again. The man had no time to reload his gun, so he used his hunting rifle as a club and engaged the tiger in close combat.

She wanted to help, but was afraid that her rash actions would make the situation worse.

Suddenly, she had an idea. Seeing some meatballs nearby, she quietly picked them up and threw them hard towards the tiger's side.

The bullet hit the tiger, and while the tiger was distracted, the man took the opportunity to break free and quickly reloaded bullets.

The tiger was enraged by the sudden attack. It gave up on the man and ran towards the warm tree.

Wen Nuan was shocked and turned around to climb up the tree. Fortunately, she was agile and climbed up to a higher branch before the tiger pounced on her.

The tiger kept jumping and roaring under the tree, hugging the tree trunk tightly, and sweat all over its body.

The man aimed his gun again, and with a "bang", the bullet hit the tiger's leg. After being injured, the tiger fled into the depths of the woods.

Wen Nuan let out a long sigh, slowly came down from the tree, and exchanged glances with the man. They both saw from each other's eyes the relief of surviving the disaster.

The man looked at Wen Nuan, nodded slightly, and said:

"Thank you for that just now, otherwise it would be difficult for me to get away."

Wen Nuan patted her chest and said with a lingering fear:

"Comrade, it's too dangerous for you to hunt tigers. Why are you alone in this deep forest?"

The man smiled bitterly and put the hunting rifle behind his back.

"I'm a hunter in my class. I'm quite confident in my abilities, but I never expected to run into such a big guy today."

Wen Nuan asked curiously:

"Then the tiger will not come back for revenge if it is injured, right?"

The man frowned.

"I can't say for sure, but we can't stay here. I think you are a coward, a little girl, and you dare to run to a place where there are tigers."

Wen Nuan scratched her head embarrassedly.

"I was just curious, and I heard gunshots, so I thought I could come and see if I could help, and pick up some spoils, hehe..."

The man saw the machete and backpack that Wen Nuan threw aside, and probably guessed the purpose of Wen Nuan's entry.

"Are you from the Red Flag Brigade or the Progress Brigade? Judging from your appearance, you should be an educated youth!"

Wen Nuan was stunned for a moment, then asked in surprise:

"How do you know? You can't even see it!"

"What's the big deal? There are only a few groups around the back. I can only guess from the direction you came from."

The man paused, then continued:

"I'm from the Wild Boar Pen Brigade. Our brigade is right over there. Miss, you can come over to visit us if you have the chance. When you get to the village, just go find Cui the Hunter!"

"So you're Comrade Cui. My last name is Wen, and I'm an educated youth from the Red Flag Brigade."

"You are indeed brave, young educated man. Here are two rabbits as a thank you gift from me. Thank you for your help today. Otherwise, I would be in big trouble!"

The man walked to the roots of the tree, took out two big fat rabbits from his basket and handed them to Wen Nuan.

"This...this is inappropriate...I can't!"

"What's inappropriate about this? Without your help, even if I wasn't killed by the tiger, I would have been injured. This is what you deserve. Could it be that Wen Zhiqing thinks it's too little?"

There is also a deer over there. If you like it, I can give it to you. I’m just afraid you can’t carry it!”

"No...no...Comrade Cui, I don't mean that!"

"Okay, here you go, just take it. Why are you being so polite to a hunter like me? If you keep refusing, I'll think you look down on me!"

"How could it be!"

"Since you don't know how to do it, then take it. Otherwise, I will feel bad!"

Wen Nuan couldn't persuade Cui the hunter, so she had to take the two rabbits, but she didn't care about the deer.

Look at the time, it's almost three o'clock now.

"Comrade Cui, it's getting late. I'm leaving too. To prevent the tiger from taking revenge, you should go back early too!"

"Well, I'm leaving too, so let's say goodbye now. If we meet again next time, I'll treat you to roe deer meat!"

"Then thank you in advance, Comrade Cui. Goodbye!"

"goodbye!"

Although she didn't catch the tiger, she still did a good deed. Looking at the two fat rabbits in the picture, Wen Nuan decided to reward herself tonight.

Wen Nuan walked towards them while humming a song. Perhaps because of the loud noise from the tiger fight just now, the whole forest was now silent.

As we walked, the warm singing gradually stopped, and I felt like something was wrong.

At this moment, she wanted to leave this place as soon as possible. After all, she was not fully prepared and she did not have the courage to fight the tiger alone.

Even a wounded tiger cannot be easily shaken.

I didn't expect that because Wen Nuan was in a hurry when she came here just now, she didn't look at the road for a moment and actually turned in the opposite direction.

Looking at the same forests everywhere, Wen Nuan felt overwhelmed. Why didn't she prepare a compass at the beginning? Now it's so confusing!

Seeing the time passing by second by second, Wen Nuan took a bite and randomly found a fork in the road to go past, but unexpectedly, she walked further and further away.

The quiet forest felt even more eerie at this moment. Wen Nuan felt her hair stand on end and stood up. Her intuition told her that she could not go any further.

At this moment, Wen Nuan heard the sound of gurgling water.

She was delighted, thinking that maybe she could find the way by following the direction of the water.

Then, she walked cautiously towards the source of the sound.

Pushing aside the dense bushes, a clear stream appeared before our eyes.

Wen Nuan squatted down, scooped up stream water to wash her face, and calmed herself down.

She walked slowly along the stream, her eyes constantly searching for familiar landmarks or things that could be used to identify the direction.

Suddenly, she saw some strange footprints in the mud beside the stream. They looked like they were left by some large animal.

A warm feeling suddenly rose to her throat. She didn't know whether the footprints belonged to the tiger or some other dangerous animal.

She stopped and looked around vigilantly.

The forest was still eerily quiet, with only the sound of flowing creek echoing in my ears.

He held the sharp machete tightly in his warm body, ready to deal with danger at any time.

She slowly took a few steps back, trying to avoid these footprints and move forward.

However, when she turned around, she found a pair of eyes with a faint green glow staring at her not far behind her.

Her warm body froze instantly, and she knew that she was in real danger.

She suppressed her inner fear, held the machete tightly, and looked into those eyes.

After a moment, the animal slowly emerged from the shadows. It turned out to be a huge wolf.

Its fur looked particularly gray in the dim light, its mouth revealed sharp fangs, and a low roar came from its throat.

Wen Nuan took a deep breath. She knew she couldn't panic at this moment.

She slowly moved sideways, trying to put some distance between herself and the wolf, all the while keeping her eyes on its every move.

The wolf seemed to sense Wen Nuan's intention. It suddenly took a step forward. Wen Nuan reacted quickly and dodged to the side.
