The young woman was startled, her dark, thin face filled with terror. She glanced at the group again before hesitatingly asking, "Then how come you were alright living up in the mountains? The tiger didn't attack you?"
Although she had never seen the tiger, she had heard the village elders mention it. The tiger was very ferocious, several meters long, and its roar could make the ground tremble.
If these people were to actually encounter them, they would be eaten alive.
Gou Sheng said smugly, "Because the tiger is raised by us, it naturally won't eat us."
