Chapter 334 What a fine line: father gone, son left behind!



Seeing this scene, Lu Qiqi was furious. She grabbed a pebble from the ground and threw it at the tiger.

The tiger's thick skin was barely scratched by the stones, but it still stopped its movements and climbed down the tree trunk.

It looked at Lu Qiqi, took two steps back, as if gathering its strength to burst forth, and pounced on her.

Lu Qiqi remained calm and fearless, waiting patiently for the tiger's attack.

The tiger bent its limbs, its body arched like a bow and arrow, and pounced on Lu Qiqi with lightning speed.

With a "bang," the tiger fell to the ground.

It destroyed the grassland, revealing a patch of black mud.

The tiger was so shocked by the impact that it saw stars. It couldn't understand why it had been knocked to the ground when there was clearly no obstacle in front of it.

With a sudden leap, the tiger was no longer reckless. It strutted on all fours, letting out a low growl, trying to scare away the person in front of it.

When it reached the spot where it had bumped into something and saw the smiling woman in front of it, it felt an urge to bite its head off.

The area that Lu Qiqi marked out was essentially a transparent barrier that no living being except her could break.

During her time fleeing famine, she raised three tigers using this method.

But she didn't expect this male tiger to be so stupid; it broke through the barrier that neither of the two cubs, Snowball and Rainbow, had ever touched.

Thinking this way, Lu Qiqi felt that this male tiger looked exactly like Little Rainbow.

They all have big heads, with the character "王" (king) imprinted on their foreheads, and the patterns on their heads exude majesty.

Even so, one can still see a hint of naivety in him.

This contrast felt very familiar to her, and even made it feel...

Could this male tiger be the tiger dad of Little Snowball and Little Rainbow?

If that's true, no wonder Xiaohua wanted to follow her while pregnant.

What a wonderful idea of ​​leaving the father behind and keeping the son!

Lu Qiqi even wanted to clap and cheer for Xiaohua.

The male tiger roared for a long time, then, tired of roaring, turned around and rubbed against the old tree.

Lu Qiqi's temples bulged with veins. She guessed that Xiao Hua could understand her before because she had drunk the spiritual spring water.

So she went back to the cabin, took the wooden basin that Xiaohua used to drink water, and filled it with spring water for the male tiger to drink.

Hopefully, this simple-minded male tiger will eventually become intelligent.

When the male tiger saw the basin of water, he first looked at Lu Qiqi suspiciously.

But as soon as it smelled its wife's scent on the wooden basin, it went closer.

It was certain, and it was quite pleased. After howling for so long, it was indeed thirsty, so it lowered its head and began to drink water in large gulps.

But the smell of the wooden basin puzzled him. Why did it smell like another tiger? Could it be that his wife had found another tiger?

So that's it. This overbearing tigress was just lusting after his young and strong body.

The more it drank, the more aggrieved it felt, but the water was just too sweet, making it impossible for it to stop.

Its belly was round and full from drinking, and the water in the wooden basin was gone. It lay on the edge of the basin, staring at it dejectedly.

Lu Qiqi looked at this silly creature and was speechless. She didn't expect this male tiger to be so stupid. He wouldn't stop until he finished drinking a whole basin of water!

She tried to talk to the male tiger, "Did you lose a pregnant tigress?"

Upon hearing the sound, the male tiger glanced at her indifferently, then turned its head to the other side, refusing to look at her.

It lost its wife! But his wife wasn't pregnant!

Lu Qiqi thought the male tiger still lacked spiritual intelligence and couldn't understand what she was saying.

She secretly sighed to herself, 'Indeed, not all tigers are as intelligent as Little Flower and her cub.'

She was about to head to the border, a place of harsh cold, unlike the forest where tigers could be released to hunt for themselves.

She herself is not even sure if she has enough to eat, so it's impossible for her to bring a tiger along.

In Lu Qiqi's opinion, Xiaohua was probably not a good tiger, since she could give up on the male tiger so easily.

Therefore, she decided to release the male tiger back into the forest to prevent the chickens and ducks in the space from ultimately falling into the tiger's mouth.

As dawn broke, Lu Qiqi walked to the edge of the ravine and released the male tiger back into it.

When she returned to her lodgings, it was broad daylight, and Li Changlong and the others had also woken up.

A group of people are starting a fire to prepare breakfast.

To process Panax notoginseng, you need to wash the mud off the roots.

Fortunately, there have been several rain showers in the Yuanqu area recently, and the previously dried-up puddles have been filled with rainwater.

Doctor Luo and Doctor Huang then washed the Panax notoginseng near the soles of the feet.

Gu Shaoqing was worried about the two men, so he sent two bodyguards to accompany them.

In principle, when escorting people, bodyguards would not usually be delayed on the road.

But this shipment was different. The Tianlang Escort Agency was not stopped by Old Master Gu, all thanks to Lu Qiqi.

Therefore, Gu Shaoqing made an exception and allowed Lu Qiqi to stay here and join him on Monday.

The workload of washing Panax notoginseng was too great for just two doctors, so Lu Qiqi and Li Changlong went to help.

The roots of Panax notoginseng are like those of ginseng, with numerous rootlets, and the epidermis must not be damaged to affect the efficacy.

However, the skin of Panax notoginseng is thick and its outer layer is not as easily broken as that of ginseng.

Doctors Luo and Huang showed no signs of pain; instead, their eyes shone as they carefully cleaned the wound.

"I never expected that the wild ginseng in these mountains would grow so well!"

Dr. Luo rarely agreed with Dr. Huang's words, "Yes, if it is said that this Panax notoginseng was artificially cultivated, I would believe it too."

The four of them washed the Panax notoginseng roots, and they almost broke the medicine from exhaustion.

Lu Qiqi threw the last, washed Panax notoginseng root into the bamboo basket.

He let out a heavy sigh and stood up, supporting his back.

"Finally finished washing up, let's hurry back."

The two doctors were both quite old, so they helped each other to their feet.

When they landed, the aroma of food wafting from afar made their empty stomachs rumble.

"Hurry up and leave, I'm starving!"

Dr. Luo urged Dr. Huang to quicken his pace.

Lu Qiqi also wanted to eat something quickly to fill her stomach; she was so hungry that her legs were about to give way.

But even as Dr. Luo and Dr. Huang passed by her, she still felt movement behind her.

Lu Qiqi suddenly turned around, but behind her was a deep forest with lush grass, and there wasn't a sound of wind or grass.

Is she just being paranoid?

Just as she was about to turn around and go back to eat, she saw a furry paw in the thicket of bushes.

The yellow and black pattern is very familiar.

The other party seemed to realize that it had alerted the enemy, and suddenly retracted its furry paws.

Lu Qiqi, “…”

Is this male tiger trying to cling to his wife, just like her?

The two cubs born to the tigress were soft, fluffy little balls of fur, so cute and cuddly that she could knead them as she pleased.

It's a male tiger with thick skin and tough flesh. Are you suggesting I ride it and lead an army into battle?
