I originally thought that it would only take two or three days to clear out the wild beasts in the Wild Boar Forest.
Who would have thought that this place was full of skinning and meat cutting, and the smell of blood was overwhelming.
The beast's nose was somewhat sensitive, and it was rushing towards the logistics team from all directions.
Poor Liu Qian, he had only been helping out here for two days and was just starting to get the hang of things, but he was almost taken away by a tiger.
The tiger walks silently.
Moreover, my luck was particularly good. None of the many traps around me were triggered.
So, when the tiger launched the attack, everyone was surprised to find that it was actually standing on a high boulder and jumped directly down from it, aiming at Liu Qian who was carrying animal skins.
Everyone reminded him in panic.
"Liu Qian, run! It's dangerous!"
…
Liu Qian looked around in confusion.
He didn't feel any danger.
It was not until he noticed that everyone's eyes were directed toward the sky that he subconsciously raised his head.
At this moment, he was shocked to realize that a huge monster was falling from the sky, and it seemed that it was going to crush him to death.
He was so surprised that the animal skin in his hand fell to the ground, but his legs seemed to be rooted and he couldn't move.
The tiger's movements were so fast that it didn't give anyone any room to maneuver.
Those in charge of logistics were sweating for him, and some of them had already drawn their bows, ready to shoot the tiger.
But he was aware that his aim was not good enough and was afraid to shoot Liu Qian, so the bow and arrow in his hand seemed too hot and he never shot.
"It's over. This child...is in danger of death!"
This was the feeling of everyone present.
There is regret and also annoyance.
They didn't do a good job of security and harmed this young child.
Thinking of this, although these people were quite afraid of the big tiger, no one ran away.
With so many of them, can't they handle a tiger?
It happened so fast. When the big tiger's claws were about to scratch Liu Qian's scalp, a burst of gunfire was heard. It turned out that Er Laizi came back in time and fired a shot.
This shot was extremely accurate.
After all, because of his job, Erlaizi had been handling a gun almost every day in the past few months, so his accuracy was quite good and he hit the tiger right in the middle of his eyebrows.
The shot knocked the big guy down directly. After a scream, he fell to the ground and twitched continuously.
Liu Qian, whose face was covered in blood, had already peed his pants out of fright. He stood there like a lost soul, without any reaction for a long time.
"Oh no, this child is really scared, please help call his soul back..."
"Liu Qian, come back soon, wake up!"
…
No one would laugh at a child who was frightened to the point of incontinence. If this happened to anyone else present, they would most likely not be able to bear it and would collapse.
Liu Qian really had no reaction.
His condition was not very good at the moment, and it would be disadvantageous for him to continue staying in the mountains.
So, Er Laizi sent the man back to his home without thinking twice.
At this time, Zhao Nan was in the yard, learning spinning and embroidery from her grandmother, and was busy and fulfilled.
When he saw Liu Qian coming back safely, he smiled at him and said, "Xiao Qian, you're back so soon. Where's your cousin? Is he coming back too?"
She was talking so casually that Er Laizi couldn't bear to say, "Aunt, Xiaoqian has had some problems. We don't know if it's serious or not. You should ask Mr. Lin to take a look!"
Er Laizi briefly recounted the encounter with the tiger, then blamed himself and said, "It's all our fault. We didn't take good care of him and let him get this fright!"
When Zhao Nan heard this, he poked a bloody hole on the finger of his hand that was holding the needle.
The gurgling blood was still a little scary, but she was not moved at all. Instead, she dropped everything and rushed to Liu Qian.
"Son, don't scare me... You are the only one left with me, don't let anything happen to you!"
"Come back to your soul, do you hear me?"
Zhao Nan's voice was tearful and trembling like a leaf in the wind.
She pulled the stunned Liu Qian into her arms, her fingertips touched the cold sweat on the back of her son's neck, and she felt indescribable panic in her heart.
The child's eyes were vacant, his lips were trembling and he couldn't utter a single syllable. The wet marks on his trouser legs were still oozing onto the ground. He looked like a rag doll with all his bones and muscles pulled out.
"I told you not to go up the mountain, but you, a little kid, insisted on joining in the fun. Now, such a big thing has happened. What sin have I committed?"
…
"Mr. Lin! Is Mr. Lin here?" Zhao Nan shouted towards Zhao Wei's house without turning back, his voice hoarse with anxiety.
The old woman leaned on her cane and trembled as she moved over from the spinning wheel. When she saw Liu Qian's appearance, her cloudy eyes instantly widened: "What... scared you?"
The second beggar followed behind, rubbing his hands with a guilty look on his face: "Grandma, it was us who didn't keep a close eye... A tiger jumped out of the mountain and almost killed someone. Fortunately, we managed to kill the tiger later..."
He didn't say anything else, just watched Zhao Nan help Liu Qian into the house with concern. The child's feet seemed to be stepping on cotton, and every step was so shaky that it made people feel distressed.
The wooden door in the yard opened with a creak, and Mr. Lin was hurrying over.
Seeing this scene, his brows furrowed.
While asking about the whole story, he felt Liu Qian's pulse, opened his eyelids and took a look. After a while, he said in a deep voice: "You are quite frightened. I will try acupuncture first. If it doesn't work, you should be mentally prepared."
Seeing this, the old grandmother took over the conversation: "Our ancestors said that this would make the souls of the dead disappear! I'll go get his underwear and try it out. It's better than just staring at him!"
She turned and walked towards Liu Qian's room, and Erlaizi hurried forward.
"Grandma, let me handle this little thing, you just sit here and watch."
He quickly took out a blue cloth jacket from the closet. It was the one Liu Qian had worn yesterday and it still smelled of sweat.
The old grandmother took the coat and clenched the fabric tightly with her fingers, as if she was holding on to her last straw.
At this time, the old man and the old lady also heard the noise and rushed over. Seeing this, they couldn't help but stop the old grandmother.
"Your country tricks are so stupid and foolish, so stop making trouble!"
"If you ask me, you should send him to the hospital as soon as possible. If there is anything wrong, you should listen to the doctor's judgment."
Lin Qinghe glanced at them calmly and said, "Earthwork has its own magical uses. Don't look down on it."
"Don't listen to them, you idiot. Follow the old lady's instructions."
