Chapter 114 General's Descendants
Su Hanchu and Jun Moye were both surprised. It turned out that the prey had a owner.
Suddenly, the tiger leaped up and pounced on the young man.
At the critical moment, the boy dodged sideways and stabbed the tiger's body with the dagger in his hand.
But a tiger is a tiger, the king of beasts, how can it die easily?
The tiger turned its head angrily and bit the boy's side.
Jun Moye quickly drew his bow and arrow.
As his pupils shrank slightly, the arrow in his hand flew out with a "whoosh" and shot into the tiger's belly.
The tiger let go of the boy and cried out in pain.
“Ouch…”
The arrow in Su Hanchu's hand arrived immediately.
The bullet accurately shot into the tiger's body again, and the dagger in the boy's hand stabbed into the tiger's neck again.
Warm, bright red blood flowed from the tiger's neck, staining the boy's clothes red. The boy fell to the side, gasping for breath, covering the wound on his waist with his hand, his face showing pain.
The tiger also lay on the ground, and its blood slowly dyed the dead leaves on the ground red.
Jun Moye walked forward and asked.
"How are you feeling? Are you okay?"
The boy shook his head slightly, then rubbed his cracked lips.
"I won't die. Thank you for today."
Then he gritted his teeth and spoke again.
"Although you two helped with this tiger, I would have been able to kill it even without you, so I can only give you half."
Su Hanchu looked at the young man's hand that was covering the wound on his waist and was already stained with blood. He took out the water bag and the golden wound medicine and handed them to Jun Moye. Then he slowly walked away, found a tree to sit down, and turned his back to the two of them.
Jun Moye looked at the young man, who was wearing a coarse cloth shirt that had been washed white. The tip of his nose was red from the cold, and his hands were covered with calluses and frostbite. Perhaps because of the fight just now, or perhaps because of the pain of the wound, there were beads of sweat on his forehead.
"We won't fight with you about this tiger. Your wound was bitten by a tiger. It needs to be cleaned and then treated with medicine."
Upon hearing this, the young man looked at the medicine in Jun Moye's hand, and finally pursed his lips and spoke.
"But you haven't received any reward without merit. You have already helped me."
Jun Moye sat beside him and spoke with a slightly heavier tone.
"Be a man, don't be so long-winded. Meeting you is fate. Let me apply the medicine on you first."
Seeing that Jun Moye was really going to apply medicine to him, the boy finally spoke.
"I'll do it myself. I can still take this position by myself."
Upon hearing this, Jun Moye simply placed the water bag in front of him.
"Use this water to clean it first, and then apply the medicine."
The young man looked at the water bag and golden wound medicine on the ground, and finally slowly undressed and began to apply the medicine.
Jun Moye spoke while examining the tiger.
"Why are you in such a deep forest alone?"
The boy paused slightly while cleaning the wound, then continued cleaning it.
"I'm the only one in the family who can go out."
Jun Moye looked up at him when he heard that. He had been watching the fight between the young man and the tiger. He reacted quickly and attacked decisively and fiercely. He was definitely not like an ordinary hunter.
"The tiger is the king of all beasts. It would be extremely difficult for one person to kill it. Why do you insist on fighting it to the death? Are you facing any difficulties at home?"
The young man looked at Jun Moye and said nothing after hearing this.
Seeing that he didn't want to talk, Jun Moye didn't ask any more questions. With the injuries on his body, it was impossible for him to carry the tiger back by himself, so he had to speak.
Sure enough, after the young man tore off a piece of cloth to bandage the bitten area, he stood up and felt sore all over his body. He had fought with the tiger for too long today. If these two people had not arrived in time, he would have been killed by the tiger.
He endured the pain and handed the water warmer and gold medicine to Jun Moye.
"Thank you very much. I'm from Banshan Village. I owe you a favor for this. If you need me in the future, please come to Banshan Village and let me know. I live in the east end of Banshan Village."
Jun Moye looked at the torn clothes on the boy.
"Keep this medicine. A bite this severe could turn into tetanus if you don't take care of it."
The young man looked at the golden medicine in his hand, and his fingertips turned a little white.
"I can't take your things for nothing..."
Jun Moye interrupted him.
"Didn't you say you owed us a favor? If you want to repay the favor, at least you have to heal your wounds. Otherwise, with all your injuries, how can we expect you to help us?"
After saying that, he walked towards Su Hanchu.
Hao Nian looked at the big tiger on the ground and thought about the distance from Banshan Village to here. He knew very well that there was no way he could move the tiger back to his village.
Seeing that the two were about to get up and leave.
The boy gritted his teeth and spoke awkwardly.
"etc…………"
Jun Moye turned around and looked at him.
"What else?"
The young man looked at the tiger again before looking at Jun Moye and spoke helplessly.
"Well, I can't move this tiger back. Can you help me move it back? We can sell everything we can on it and split the money."
Upon hearing this, Jun Moye had a faint smile on his face.
"It's okay, we don't lack money."
The boy's face looked even more unnatural when he heard this.
"I'm short of money. I...my mother is still waiting for me to get her medicine. Didn't you just say that? Meeting is fate, so why not help her to the end? I'll repay you for this favor later."
Jun Moye fell silent after hearing this, as if he was thinking about it.
Only Su Hanchu, who was standing next to him, knew that this young man had good skills and was about the same age as Jun Moye. It was impossible for Jun Moye to really live an ordinary life. After all, the revenge for the Prince Qin's Mansion still needed to be avenged. He was afraid that he wanted to use this young man for his own purposes.
"Sir, how should I address you?"
The young man spoke upon hearing this.
"My name is Li Xiao."
Jun Moye narrowed his eyes when he heard that.
"Li Xiao, this name is unusual."
Li Xiao's face showed a bitter look when he heard this.
"My father gave me this name, hoping that I would be brave and good at fighting in the future and join the army to protect the northwest. Unfortunately, my father died in battle, and when my mother heard the tragic news about my father, she fell seriously ill and has been bedridden ever since. I have no choice but to stay at home."
After hearing this, Jun Moye's eyes showed even more interest.
"No wonder you were so skilled just now. Like father, like son. What position did your father hold in the Northwest Barracks?"
When talking about his father, Li Xiao felt both sad and proud.
"He once served as a fifth-rank general at Dingyuan, but there has been no news since the war two years ago. I made inquiries and learned that my father died in the battle, but for some reason, there has been no news from the army."
