A large tiger stares intently at its prey, waiting for its chance to strike.
It opens its mouth, revealing sharp teeth, ready to bite off its prey's neck at any moment.
Lu Qiqi's eyes widened, and she shouted, "There's a tiger! Run!"
Upon hearing Lu Qiqi's voice, Dr. Luo and Dr. Huang instinctively glanced back.
Then we saw a huge creature!
A tiger charged at them like an arrow.
Dr. Huang had never seen such a scene before, and his legs went weak so much that he almost fell to the ground.
It was tough on Dr. Luo, with his old bones, who had to help Dr. Huang escape.
With only two legs, how could they outrun a four-legged beast?
In the blink of an eye, Lu Qiqi picked up a wooden stake at her feet and smashed it hard against the tiger.
When the two forces collided, the tiger prevailed, shattering the wooden stake into pieces with its hard skull.
However, the tiger seemed to be badly injured as well, stopping in its tracks and shaking its head.
This bought the two doctors some time.
When Li Changlong saw the tiger, his pupils contracted slightly, but he couldn't care less about anything else and rushed to the two doctors.
While the tiger was still dazed from being hit by the stake, they quickly pulled the person away.
Three people, six legs, running in unison, not daring to stop for a moment.
Once the tiger recovered, it found the culprit that had harmed it, and its growls grew louder and louder.
Then a deafening roar shook the earth, startling all the birds in the forest into flight, flapping their wings and soaring into the distance.
Li Changlong led the two doctors out of the ravine, only to find that Lu Qiqi had not followed.
"You guys hurry back and get help, I'm going to find Qiqi."
After saying that, Li Changlong ran back.
At this moment, Lu Qiqi held a wood-chopping knife in her hand and stood facing the tiger, a fight was inevitable.
It wasn't until Lu Qiqi heard Li Changlong calling her that she heard Li Changlong calling her.
"Seven Seven".
Ignoring everything else, Lu Qiqi instantly put the tiger into her spatial storage.
Let it stay under the big tree where the mother and baby flower used to be, and use your mind to designate an area for it to prevent it from causing damage in the space.
Li Changlong ran down the ravine, found Lu Qiqi, and quickly checked on her, asking, "Are you injured?"
Lu Qiqi smiled and said, "No."
Hearing this, Li Changlong felt relieved. He looked around and said, "This place is not safe to stay. Let's leave quickly."
After saying that, he grabbed Lu Qiqi's wrist and walked out of the ravine.
Lu Qiqi quickly grabbed him, "Second brother, that tiger is blind and has a stuffy nose. I threw something over there in the woods, and it heard the noise and chased after it."
"They should be far away by now."
Li Changlong was just wondering how such a big tiger could just disappear like that.
Hearing Lu Qiqi's explanation, he believed her without any doubt.
Lu Qiqi observed Li Changlong's reaction and realized that she had successfully fooled him.
She was actually feeling guilty, after all, only Li Changlong would not suspect that she was lying about such a clumsy lie.
"Let's quickly dig up the remaining Panax notoginseng so we can take it back when Doctor Luo and his men arrive."
Li Changlong was about to refuse, but then he saw Lu Qiqi's expression, as if she wouldn't go home without Sanqi.
He couldn't help but sigh, and then started digging for Panax notoginseng again.
This time, however, he kept glancing around, afraid that the blind tiger might come back.
"This is it! This is it!"
Dr. Huang's hurried and anxious voice came from afar.
Lu Qiqi and Li Changlong were just in time. They dug up all the Panax notoginseng in the ravine, leaving it completely bare.
Dr. Huang heard that there was no more movement from the other side of the ravine.
He muttered to himself, "It's over, it's over, it's over!"
Gu Shaoqing, accompanied by his bodyguards and armed with various weapons, headed towards the mountain valley.
Upon reaching the top of the ravine, the group saw Li Changlong and Lu Qiqi standing in the ravine with a large pile of herbs beside them.
What's going on?
Where is the big tiger?
Biaozi grabbed Doctor Huang by the collar and looked down into the ravine. "Where are the tigers? You just tricked us into coming here to work, didn't you!"
Dr. Huang's eyes widened as he saw Lu Qiqi waving at them.
Could it be that they were affected by miasma and were hallucinating?
This is too weird!
Gu Shaoqing went down the mountain to check on the situation and was relieved to learn that Lu Qiqi was unharmed.
He asked, "Where's the tiger?"
Lu Qiqi said, "We've found a new target, so we're going to pursue it."
The words that were meant to deceive Li Changlong would not hold water with Gu Shaoqing.
This was the best way she could think of to put it.
Since they hadn't seen the tiger, they naturally accepted whatever Lu Qiqi said, and fortunately, Gu Shaoqing didn't ask any more questions.
Just as he was about to speak, he decided to leave this dangerous place first.
Lu Qiqi had already started arranging for people to work. "This place is dangerous, let's quickly take our things and leave."
"I've already tied them up with vines; each person just needs to carry one bundle."
A bundle of Panax notoginseng weighs about fifty or sixty pounds, which is not a problem for a strong and healthy bodyguard.
Upon hearing this, Biaozi immediately picked up two bundles of Panax notoginseng and headed towards the ravine.
Seeing this, the other bodyguards followed suit.
All the ginseng was taken away by the men, and when it was Lu Qiqi's turn, she only had a wood-chopping knife in her hand.
The group didn't even see a tiger's fur; instead, they returned to the ground covered in mud.
Lu Qiqi planned to stay here for a few more days, firstly to prepare Sanqi, and secondly to wait for Zhou Yi and the others.
Gu Shaoqing was terrified by Lu Qiqi and the others' encounter with the tiger while gathering herbs, fearing that the tiger might reappear and endanger their lives.
So that afternoon, Biaozi and his men were not allowed to go into the woods to hunt.
At night, a dozen or so people stayed overnight at their lodgings and lit a dozen or so bonfires.
Wild beasts fear fire; upon seeing the flames, they naturally dare not approach.
However, in the sweltering heat of June, the dozen or so bonfires made people sweat profusely.
Lu Qiqi was even afraid that these people, instead of being bitten to death by the tiger, would die of heatstroke.
Besides, she's already stored the tiger in her spatial storage, so there's really no need to burn so much fire.
She wanted to persuade Gu Shaoqing, but then she sensed a roaring sound coming from inside the space.
The sounds coming from inside the space could actually be heard from the outside!
Lu Qiqi disregarded everything else and, using the excuse of being tired, got into the carriage to rest.
In reality, they entered a spatial dimension.
As soon as she entered the space, she rushed to the place where the tiger was imprisoned.
The last time it made this sound was when Peanut had two little chicks.
Could it be that she picked up another tigress?
When she ran to the big tree, she was completely dumbfounded!
What kind of outrageous thing is this male tiger doing under the tree?!
