Gu Yue worked quickly and cleaned the two rabbits in just over ten minutes. He took out two bottles of water to wash them before starting to roast them over the fire.
She had known for a long time that they would go deep into Kunshan this time, so she brought some seasonings with her when she set out, just in case there was nothing to eat in the depths of Kunshan so that she could hunt locally and avoid going hungry. Now they just happened to be of use.
Chen Qiu was quite surprised to see Gu Yue's skillful movements. He didn't quite understand why Gu Yue could actually barbecue, and it seemed like it wasn't his first time.
Although the Gu family is not well-known, it is a family with hundreds of years of history. As a member of the Gu family, Gu Yue actually has such down-to-earth skills?
After more than half an hour, the two wild rabbits were roasted. Gu Yue handed one to Shen Qi, and then gave the other half to Chen Qiu.
Shen Qi and Shen Qiu didn't hesitate and started eating.
The taste is okay, not as good as that of a restaurant chef, but it is still considered a delicacy in the depths of Kunshan.
The barbecue meal actually made Gu Yue feel that she and Shen Qi had become much closer, so she took this opportunity to ask, "Mr. Shen Qi, what is your main purpose for entering the depths of Kunshan this time? Isn't it just to take Shen Qiu to see the world?"
Shen Qi had no intention of hiding it, because the purpose of his coming to Kunshan could not be hidden from Gu Yue.
"Letting Shen Qiu see the world is only one aspect. More importantly, I plan to find a powerful monster to protect the Shen family in my place."
Shen Qiu, who was eating barbecue, was also stunned. It was the first time he heard Shen Qi say why they wanted to go deep into Kunshan. He couldn't help but think more: Is Second Grandpa ready to leave the Shen family?
Gu Yue had similar thoughts, but she didn't dare to ask directly. Instead, she pointed at the leopard next to her and asked, "Like this leopard?"
The leopard immediately pricked up its ears, seeming to be very concerned about Shen Qi's answer.
Shen Qi shook his head. "It? Not even close. It can only guard the house."
The leopard's head suddenly drooped, pretending not to hear anything.
Gu Yue's expression also looked somewhat unnatural. The leopard that had fought with her was actually only a guard?
Then wouldn't she only be able to stay at the Shen family as a guard?
If someone else said this to her, she would definitely not be able to bear it, but facing Shen Qi, she didn't have any temper at all!
After lunch, Shen Qi and the other two continued to move forward. This time, in the evening, they finally encountered a big guy, a tiger that was nearly two meters tall.
The tiger exuded a strong pressure all over its body. Even Gu Yue couldn't help but get nervous when he saw the tiger, and Chen Qiu began to tremble.
This cannot be blamed on Chen Qiu's uselessness, but the power exuded by the tiger is really too strong, which is simply beyond Chen Qiu's ability to resist. If it were not for the jade pendant given to him by Shen Qi to protect him, he might have been scared to the ground.
The tigers that people usually see in the zoo are only about one meter tall and two to three meters long. The one in front of them is two meters tall and nearly five meters long, with limbs as strong as an elephant's legs.
It goes without saying how much pressure such a huge creature, at such a close distance, can bring to people.
Even the leopard was so frightened that it lay on the ground, not daring to move at all.
This shows the gap between monsters and humans. When humans face danger, even if they know they have no chance of winning, they can overcome the fear in their hearts and will not be without the strength to fight back. But monsters can't do that.
The natural pressure made the leopard completely useless.
The tiger was not in a hurry to attack, but slowly approached Shen Qi and the other two, as if putting pressure on them while also locking onto its target.
Chen Qiu finally suppressed the fear in his heart and was about to say a few words, but Shen Qi suddenly took two steps back. Chen Qiu appeared in front and faced the pressure brought by the tiger. His legs went weak and he almost fell to the ground.
There was no way. He didn't expect Shen Qi to suddenly retreat. The pressure of the tiger fell on him almost instantly.
Gu Yue was puzzled and didn't understand why Shen Qi did this.
Doesn't he care about Chen Qiu's life or death?
When the tiger saw Shen Qi retreating, it thought it had seized the opportunity. Its huge body suddenly moved and turned into a black shadow and pounced towards Shen Qiu.
Chen Qiu was completely frightened and it was impossible for him to dodge. At this point, he could only barely raise his hands to try to resist.
However, the expected scene of Shen Qiu being pounced on by the tiger did not happen. Instead, when the tiger pounced on Shen Qiu, a powerful force appeared and barely blocked the tiger's attack.
However, Chen Qiu was not having an easy time either. The tiger's attack was extremely powerful. Even with the jade pendant protecting him, he was still knocked more than ten meters away and fell to the ground with a bang. Although he was not injured, he was dizzy and felt quite uncomfortable.
There was also surprise in the tiger's eyes, as if it couldn't understand why its attack didn't achieve the expected effect.
But it doesn’t matter anymore. The tiger exerted force again and chased after Chen Qiu, as if he was going to fight to the death with Chen Qiu.
Gu Yue was horrified when he saw this. He didn't care about his own lack of cultivation. He gritted his teeth and rushed towards Chen Qiu, wanting to save Chen Qiu.
Although there is a powerful force protecting Chen Qiu, no one can guarantee that this force will always be effective. If any accident occurs, Chen Qiu will definitely die!
The tiger noticed Gu Yue's movements, but had no intention of changing. While pouncing on Chen Qiu, its tail suddenly lashed towards Gu Yue. With a snap, Gu Yue was hit by the tail and flew backwards. He spat out a mouthful of blood in the air and his face turned pale.
The ancient martial arts she had practiced for more than ten years were so vulnerable in front of a tiger?
Chen Qiu had just recovered from the fall when he saw a tiger falling from the sky. He saw the sharp teeth in the tiger's bloody mouth, and even the pieces of flesh between the tiger's teeth were clearly visible!
It’s over!
This was the only thought in Shen Qiu's mind.
The tiger had no pity on Chen Qiu's plight, and opened its bloody mouth to bite him, but the powerful force appeared again and blocked the tiger's bite. No matter how hard the tiger tried, it could not get close to Chen Qiu at all.
The tiger, realizing something was wrong, quickly retreated and roared to vent his inner dissatisfaction.
Chen Qiu was so frightened that he dared not move, and even forgot that he had the jade pendant to protect him. His heart was pounding so hard that it almost jumped into his throat.
When Shen Qi saw Shen Qiu's reaction and even Gu Yue was injured by the tiger, he knew it was time for him to take action.
With a gentle wave of his right hand, a stream of spiritual energy appeared, condensed into the shape of a fist in the air, and quickly fell on the tiger's head.
With a bang, the tiger's huge body fell to the ground, as if hit by something heavy.
The tiger was confused: What hit me?
