The tiger didn't seem to want to eat her, but Han Luoxue still felt uneasy facing such a ferocious beast.
"you..."
"roar..."
With a roar, this time the sound was different from before, and the tiger suddenly arched its back...
Seeing that the tiger was about to pounce, Han Luoxue quickly covered her head with both hands and rolled on the ground.
A sharp gust of wind swept past her, and Han Luoxue closed her eyes in fright.
Just then, Han Yuchen felt a sudden tightening on her wrist as a strong hand gripped her arm.
"Run!"
It's Han Yuchen!
Han Luoxue was overjoyed. Hearing his voice, she felt inexplicably at ease.
Han Yuchen is a very good hunter; with him around, I'll be fine.
He pulled hard, and Han Luoxue stood up.
She ran desperately, following in Han Yuchen's footsteps.
Han Yuchen ran very fast. Although Han Luoxue was a woman, she had done a lot of work on the ground in the past, and after drinking spiritual spring water for two days, her physical fitness had improved a lot.
She was actually able to keep up with Han Yuchen's pace.
After running for an unknown amount of time, the two finally reached the outskirts of Wuling Mountain, where they could see villagers occasionally appearing.
The two found a big tree, sat down against it, and panted heavily.
Han Luoxue took out a bamboo tube, uncorked it, and took a few mouthfuls of water before she felt her heart stop beating so violently.
With a thought, she filled the bamboo tube with spiritual spring water again and handed it to Han Yuchen.
Han Yuchen didn't hesitate and took a few sips as well.
He suddenly stopped, picked up the bamboo tube, and examined it closely.
"I only brought a bamboo tube. If you don't like it..."
Han Luoxue thought he was disgusted by what she had used. Was this man really that picky?
"without."
After Han Yuchen finished speaking, he opened his mouth again and gulped down the water. He wiped the sweat from his forehead and said in a deep voice:
"Your bamboo tube can hold quite a lot."
Han Luoxue felt a little guilty; she had just drunk more than half of it and then refilled her glass.
Next time I should bring a few more bamboo tubes. How come these guys all have such sharp eyes and such great brains?
One difficult mother was enough of a headache for her, and now there's Han Yuchen to deal with too!
And it seems he drank from the spot where she was drinking water, so wouldn't that be considered a disguised kiss?
"Was it you who helped me distract Brother Tiger just now?"
Upon hearing the words "Tiger Brother," Han Yuchen's lips twitched violently. This girl was truly audacious; wasn't she afraid that her Tiger Brother would devour her?
"How did you get him to leave? I couldn't even lure it away with a goose!"
Han Luoxue asked curiously. She wasn't just curious; she wanted to learn from the experience so she'd be prepared the next time she encountered a tiger.
"Wild geese?" Han Yuchen raised an eyebrow, his deep eyes carrying a hint of mockery.
Han Luoxue wanted to slap herself twice. What did she mean by wild goose? She could have said pheasant, wild dog, wild rabbit.
"You misspoke, it's a big rabbit."
She blushed a little; she had never been so embarrassed before, having taken someone else's things and been caught.
"It has two tiger cubs that are less than a month old."
Han Yuchen saw that the little girl's face was red and her big eyes were darting around unnaturally. He knew that Han Luoxue was embarrassed, so he stopped dwelling on the issue of the wild goose.
"A tiger cub less than a month old?"
Han Luoxue's eyes lit up even more. My God, that tiger brother, oops, I mean tiger mother, actually just gave birth to tiger cubs?
Isn't this the wet nurse she's always dreamed of?
However, getting the tiger mom to breastfeed her younger brother is an incredibly difficult task.
My heart, which had just soared to the sky, was mercilessly crushed again.
"I hit two tiger cubs once, and when they cried out, the tiger ran back to check on its cubs."
Han Luoxue fell silent; she couldn't refute what the man said. Tigers are very protective of their cubs; they would definitely return if they heard them crying.
Han Yuchen was a sensible person; he only hit the tiger cubs twice without harming them, so the tiger mother wouldn't fight to the death with anyone.
"They must be so cute!" I heard that tigers look about the same size as kittens when they're young. I really want to pet them.
"Don't even think about touching the tiger cubs, or the mother tiger will fight you to the death."
Seeing Han Luoxue's eager expression, Han Yuchen warned her.
Han Luoxue nodded. Wasn't it okay if she didn't want to think about it anymore?
"Don't go up the mountain by yourself in the future."
He was almost scared to death today. Although he didn't know why the tigress hadn't attacked Han Luoxue, he knew that today's events were very dangerous.
Even he was no match for a fully grown tiger.
"I understand. Can I come up the mountain with you next time?"
Han Yuchen didn't speak, but Han Luoxue chuckled, taking her silence as agreement.
When she got home, she naturally didn't dare tell her family about encountering the tiger.
The plants in the space were growing well, so Han Luoxue decided to go to the town market when the millet was ripe.
She would wait until the corn was ripe at the latest. She would also gather water celery and sweet potato leaves from the pond whenever she could. These green things wouldn't spoil even if she stored them in her spatial storage. They were rare items, and she could exchange them for goods at the market later.
And the jujube tree she dug up today, its leaves have turned emerald green, which is extremely pleasing to the eye.
This system isn't very intelligent; it would be great if it could automatically collect, sow, and harvest seeds.
[After the space is upgraded, collection can be done automatically.]
Suddenly a notification startled Han Luoxue. Who would dare say this space wasn't intelligent?
But what about space upgrades? Who knows when that will be?
With the space at her disposal, Han Luoxue no longer meticulously planned her cooking, and the third branch of the Han family has been eating exceptionally well lately.
Although it is porridge, it is extremely thick.
Yunniang had promised Han Mingyuan that she wouldn't take care of the household affairs, but looking at the food at home, she was filled with worry and distress.
She couldn't help but pull Han Luoxue aside, stroking her daughter's long hair with one hand, and said gently:
"Xue'er, how many more days will our food last?"
When her mother asked that question, Han Luoxue understood what she meant.
"Mother, we won't go hungry."
Han Luoxue smiled. Being in her own home, she had nothing to hide. She said mysteriously:
"That day when I went into the mountains, I found an old ginseng root, which is being kept by Brother Chen. In a few days, we'll go to the market and exchange it for a lot of grain."
These days, grain is precious and valuable, but good medicinal herbs are just as valuable.
There are still quite a few people in the city who have money and food.
"Really?" Yunniang's face lit up with surprise, but only for a moment before her expression turned serious again:
"Xue'er, you must have mistaken me for someone else. Countless people wander around the outskirts of Wuling Mountain every day. There's not a single wild vegetable to be found, let alone medicinal herbs."
"They found an old ginseng? How is that possible?"
Han Luoxue broke out in a cold sweat. She realized that her father was much easier to fool than her mother.
"Mother, last time when I was with Brother Chen, we went in a bit more than we should have."
"What? Xue'er, you two went into the mountains? There are big monsters there. You two are too brave. Aren't you afraid... Don't you think about what will happen to your father and me if something happens to you?"
