Chapter 263 Either the tiger dies or they die
As the horses approached the tiger, their natural fear of the king caused the horses ridden by the three men to neigh harshly.
If Deng Yan'an and the others had not been good at martial arts and could easily maintain balance on horseback, they would have been thrown out by the crazy horse.
But even so, they pulled the reins with extra force.
Forcibly dragging a horse towards a tiger is against nature.
“Roar~”
The tiger realized that the visitor had ill intentions, put down Yi Wang, and roared at the three of them.
“Whoosh!”
Deng Yan'an raised his arm and threw a broken arrow towards the tiger.
The tiger didn't dodge at all, and the arrow only shot off two of its hairs.
Tiger skin is like an indestructible armor.
"Don't fight it, lead it away."
Li Tianzhuo reminded loudly from the side.
The tiger has put down Yi Wang now, but Yi Wang is still beside the tiger and they cannot get close to him.
Now the task of Deng Yan'an and the other two is to lead the tiger to a place farther away from King Yi.
But before they could act, the tiger pounced towards Deng Yan'an's horse.
It has a bloody mouth and its sharp claws seem to tear people to pieces.
"Cousin—"
Deng Youning screamed in horror.
She rode over at a gallop.
Deng Yan'an also jumped off the horse's back at the moment the tiger pounced.
When Deng Youning's horse came over, he grabbed Deng Youning's hand and used his lightness skills to jump directly from his horse to Deng Youning's horse in the air.
After the tiger pounced on Deng Yan'an's horse, it remembered to continue pounce on Deng Youning's horse.
But Deng Youning did not give him this opportunity and hurriedly took Deng Yan'an away on horseback.
The tiger was also very stubborn and kept chasing them from behind.
Deng Yan'an kept throwing hidden weapons at the tiger, but none of them could hurt it.
However, at least they tripped the tiger and put some distance between it and their horses.
Although it was dangerous for the brother and sister, fortunately they successfully led the tiger away.
Li Tianzhuo knew that he could not help, so he asked Xiu Ming and Ying Shi to go over to help, while he rescued Yi Wang and sent him to a place farther away from the tiger.
When Xiu Ming and Ying Shi arrived, the four of them and three horses had surrounded the tiger.
The tiger roared, trying to scare them.
Ying Shi found the right time and threw countless poison pills directly into the tiger's mouth like throwing beans.
Tiger was a little confused.
Taking advantage of its confused moment, Xiu Ming sprinkled the medicine powder on his body at it.
The tiger's nose was constantly moving, and it inhaled a lot of poisonous powder.
But it still had a ferocious look on its face, bared its fangs, and was eager to attack the few people.
Deng Youning was a little disappointed with her poison.
Is it really useless against tigers?
The tiger leapt up, finding Sakura, the weakest among them, and pounced on her horse.
Xiu Ming quickly drew his sword and fought the tiger for three rounds on horseback.
Deng Yan'an also helped with hidden weapons.
Feeling that the tiger was a little tired, Deng Youning felt that it was time for them to escape.
"Let's leave the horse for it to eat and leave."
Deng Youning asked everyone to prepare to retreat.
Their inherent thinking is that after a tiger eats a horse, it will no longer chase people.
But, it was obvious that Deng Youning and the others had miscalculated.
After the horse was bitten to death by the tiger, its night vision eyes quickly locked onto the four people who were running away.
The forest was shrouded in mist, but to the tiger, the mist seemed non-existent and had no effect on its vision.
The four were chased by a tiger and kept circling nearby.
Running here and there.
"Let's run out of the forest. There are more people there, so the tiger shouldn't dare to chase us." Xiu Ming suggested.
Deng Youning frowned a little tiredly when she heard this.
What's his train of thought?
There are a lot of people outside. Wouldn't it be more dangerous to lure the tiger out?
In that case, more than just them would die.
In order to prevent more people from getting hurt, she couldn't afford to gamble!
"Everyone, we can't let it get out and hurt more people."
"I think... let it never get up and stay here!"
Deng Youning stopped running and drew his sword against the tiger.
The tiger also stopped chasing others and stopped to stand opposite Deng Youning.
The man and the tiger were in opposition.
Seeing Deng Youning's attitude, Deng Yan'an, Xiu Ming and Ying Shi also guessed what she was thinking.
She wanted to fight the tiger directly and kill it completely.
"Cousin, Xiu Ming, Ying Shi, are you willing to join me in slaying this beast?"
Under the moonlight half covered by thick fog, Deng Youning's sword flashed brightly with a cold light.
The murderous intention arises. Tonight, either the tiger dies or they die!
Deng Yan'an, Xiu Ming and Ying Shi also wanted to give it a try.
If they can successfully hunt this tiger tonight, it will be enough for them to brag about for the rest of their lives.
"Since Ningning is in such a good mood, I will certainly accompany you."
Deng Yan'an also drew out the long knife he had been holding in his hand.
Sparks flew between Hu Ya's and Deng Yan'an's long swords. He was quite strong and neither side gave in.
Deng Youning attacked the tiger from the side, trying to pierce its belly with his sword.
The tiger suddenly raised its claws, and Deng Youning dodged quickly, almost being scratched by it.
Xiu Ming and Ying Shi also stepped forward with swords in hand.
Xiu Ming's martial arts skills are the best among those present except for Deng Youning.
He and Deng Youning cooperated with each other to attack the tiger head-on and attract its attention.
Deng Yan'an and Ying Shi were at the back and side, waiting for the right moment to launch a surprise attack.
The tiger was very alert, as if it had eyes on all sides.
Sneak attacks have no effect on it.
Moreover, its physical strength is actually very good. After a few rounds, the four of them were tired, but it seemed that it had just warmed up.
Deng Youning instantly thought of the time when he abandoned his horse just now.
"A beast is so scheming!"
"It pretended to be tired just now, but it actually wanted us to let down our guard."
Deng Youning exposed the tiger to everyone.
"Whatever it is, I feel that if we don't defeat it, we'll die!"
There was a harsh sound between Xiu Ming's long sword and the tiger's sharp claws.
In a flash, Yingshi grabbed its tail, distracting the tiger slightly.
Xiu Ming found the right moment and quickly slashed the tiger's paw pad.
Blood splattered and the tiger howled in pain.
Ying Shiya took this opportunity to cut a hole in the tiger's butt with a dagger.
Its skin is hard and rough, like its own protective clothing, except for its belly and buttocks which are softer.
This made the tiger even more angry.
It seemed as if the tiger was finally going to show his real kung fu.
The claws were deadly, Xiu Ming's entire back, Ying Shi's arms, and even Deng Yan'an were injured by the tiger's claws.
Deng Youning was able to escape only because of his good martial arts skills and quick evasion.
But, it is also true that I am physically exhausted.
Just when everyone was preparing for a life-and-death fight, Li Tianzhuo rode towards them on horseback, holding two furry little creatures in his arms.
Those two creatures, only the size of adult cats, were the tiger's cubs.
Hearing the child's cry, the tiger instantly shifted its target to Li Tianzhuo and stared at him intently.
"Azhuo, what are you doing...?" Deng Youning's face was full of suspicion.
"After rescuing Queen Yi, I was wondering, since you guys have made such a big commotion here, if there are other tigers in the cave the tiger was about to enter, why didn't they come out to help?"
Li Tianzhuo explained simply.
He felt that there must be something hidden in the cave, and perhaps driven by curiosity, he wanted to go in and take a look.
Discovering that it was a tiger cub was a pleasant surprise.
