Chapter 35 Hunting
As Wan Laoer screamed, the officers and soldiers who passed by him stopped instantly.
At this moment, a huge monster suddenly jumped out from the darkness. It was actually an extremely angry tiger.
Lao Hu had just exchanged a few moves with Wan Xingmo and his son, and was covered in bruises. He was furious and followed Wan Laoer's figure to chase him.
Unexpectedly, after turning a corner, there were so many creatures standing on two legs in the cave. The tiger scratched the ground twice with its front paws, kicked hard with its hind legs, and pounced straight towards the group of officers and soldiers.
Wan Laoer had already escaped from the cave and followed the footprints on the ground to chase Wan Laotai and her group.
The other people in the cave were caught off guard. Suddenly, they saw a huge tiger leap out of the air and screamed in fright.
“Help!”
"ah!"
"tiger!"
The cave suddenly became chaotic, and everyone was scrambling to escape the cave. However, the more they tried to escape, the weaker their legs became. In addition, the people outside blocked the way, so some people simply stepped on other people's bodies to rush forward.
Liu was so frightened that she collapsed into a pile of mud, holding on tightly to Wan Die Lan's trouser legs.
"Lan'er, save mother..." Wan Dielan's face was full of fear. Her legs were weak and she was still being pulled by Liu. Anger instantly surged in her heart and she kicked Liu away.
"Mother, you're on your own. Go find your third brother to save you." Liu was kicked to the ground by her own daughter. At the same time, she saw Wan Jinhan lying not far away. Her eyes rolled back and she fainted.
Wan Jinhan's miserable condition at this time was horrifying. His head was beaten to a bloody mess, it was a horrible sight.
Liu couldn't bear the horrifying scene after just one look and fainted.
Sun and Qiu were only concerned with protecting their own children and had no time to care about their mother-in-law.
Zhou Qiang and his companions have already started a head-on confrontation with the tiger.
"Ah--" With a scream, the tiger bit a soldier's shoulder and then knocked him to the ground.
The soldier's bloody mouth opened wide, and half of his head disappeared in an instant.
The other officers and soldiers held their long swords with trembling hands as they clung to the stone wall, trying to find a chance to slip away.
Beads of sweat rolled down Zhou Qiang's face.
His calves were shaking like sieves, and the long sword in his hand was shaking like an earthquake.
"Brother Qiang, are we...are we dead?" Wu Lei was so scared that he wet his pants.
Zhou Qiang swallowed hard and looked around, but he didn't find any black snake at all.
Only then did he realize that he had been deceived by Wan Xingchen, and he felt extremely upset.
If he could escape this time, he would definitely cut Wan Xingchen into pieces.
Just as Zhou Qiang's eyes were rolling around, the tiger suddenly turned around and pounced towards him and Wu Lei with a disgusting stench.
Zhou Qiang subconsciously grabbed Wu Lei who was standing beside him and held him in front of him.
The tiger's claws scratched Wu Lei's face like a sharp blade, and the sharp claws instantly scratched Wu Lei's face into a bloody mess.
Wu Lei let out a shrill scream and rolled on the ground in pain.
The tiger did not let Wu Lei go, and slapped Wu Lei hard on the chest again, and Wu Lei died immediately.
Seeing this, other officers and soldiers moved away from Zhou Qiang, fearing that they would become the next victim.
Zhou Qiang wanted to take this opportunity to sneak away, but he didn't expect to be discovered by the tiger.
The tiger roared like a thunder, shaking the earth and mountains. Then it pounced towards Zhou Qiang like an arrow.
Zhou Qiang was originally walking along the edge of the cliff, carefully leaning against the wall. This pounce directly pressed him against the wall, making him unable to move.
Zhou Qiang hurriedly held the knife across the tiger's front, trying to stop it from biting him, but his strength was like a mantis trying to stop a chariot in front of the tiger.
Finally, the tiger's claws grabbed Zhou Qiang's shoulder. Zhou Qiang felt pain, the strength on his arm loosened instantly, and the knife moved away a few inches at the same time.
How could the tiger miss such a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity? It opened its bloody mouth and bit Zhou Qiang's neck. Blood gushed out from Zhou Qiang's neck like a fountain.
Zhou Qiang's eyes were wide open, blood was constantly flowing out of his mouth, and his whole body fell limply to the ground.
The tiger bared its fangs and tore Zhou Qiang's body into pieces in a breath.
When the other officers and soldiers saw the tragic deaths of Zhou Qiang and Wu Lei, they were so frightened that they burst into tears.
They began to flee in a swarm, dropping their knives in fear. When they saw a prisoner who had not escaped, they pushed him behind them in order to save themselves.
When the tiger tasted the blood, its beastly nature was aroused and it started a bloody massacre in the cave.
It chased the officers and soldiers all the way. Wherever it went, people were knocked down and their necks were bitten off. After a while, the entire cave seemed to have turned into the Avici Hell, and those who were already injured could not escape.
"Beast! Stop hurting people!"
Wan Jinshu's angry roar came from the darkness like thunder.
Then, he strode out with the black gold spear in his hand like a god of war and stabbed straight towards the tiger.
All his moves were developed through real fighting on the battlefield. There was nothing fancy about them, and each move contained tremendous force.
The seemingly simple shot was like a torrential rain, leaving the tiger with no escape, and the shot hit the tiger's buttocks.
"roar--"
A tiger roar filled with endless anger echoed in the cave, shaking the entire cave to the point of collapse.
Wan Jinshu quickly pulled back his spear, flipped on the spot neatly, and stood two feet away from the tiger.
The tiger gave up hunting the soldiers and pounced towards Wan Jinshu, but unexpectedly fell into Wan Xingmo's ambush.
Wan Xingmo was as light as a swallow, moving swiftly and agilely in the cave. The tiger was huge, like a clumsy beast. Although it had brute strength, it was not as agile as Wan Xingmo, and its fur was constantly scratched by Wan Xingmo's sword.
Finally, the tiger was completely enraged, and it rushed straight towards Wan Xingmo like a mad beast.
Wan Xingmo dodged and lightly crossed the fire. He inserted the sword in his hand straight into the fire and then swung it back suddenly.
Sparks and charcoal flew towards the tiger's face like a group of angry fireflies.
Wan Xingmo tapped the stone wall lightly with his toes, and his whole body spun in the air like a gyroscope, changing direction and stabbing straight towards the tiger.
The sparks from the burning coals splashed right into the tiger's eyes, causing it to roar in pain at a deafening sound.
Wan Xingmo seized the moment when the tiger was blinded and pierced the tiger's neck with a sword as fast as lightning.
The tiger rolled on the ground in pain and eventually died.
Wan Jinshu walked out of the darkness and just saw Wan Xingmo drawing out his sword and wiping the blood off the tiger.
"Ling Yun, are you okay? Are you hurt?" Wan Jinshu's face was full of anxiety, and he asked in an urgent tone.
Wan Xingmo shook his head: "Dad, I'm fine, the tiger is dead."
Wan Jinshu kicked the tiger's body and confirmed that it was dead. Then he sat down against the stone wall with a sense of relief.
"Lingyun, go and find your mother and the others. I think it's almost dawn, so we shouldn't stay here for long. The strong smell of blood might attract other beasts. We have to leave here quickly and get back to the official road."
Wan Xingmo nodded, and after settling Wan Jinshu, he quickly ran out of the cave.
At this time, Liu happened to wake up. Fortunately, she escaped the disaster because she was unconscious and was not discovered by the tiger.
Wan Die Lan and her two sisters-in-law ran very fast and successfully escaped the disaster.
More than twenty people from those side branches died, and now there are only a dozen or so left, huddled together and shivering.
Wan Xingmo just chased out, and soon he saw Old Lady Wan and her group struggling forward in the woods.
Because it had just rained heavily, the forest was slippery and they didn't go far.
"Mom, Xingchen, Grandma Wan, the tiger is dead. We are safe now. We don't need to run away anymore."
Wan Xingmo stopped everyone, and his words were like a reassurance, making everyone feel at ease.
"Child, is the tiger really dead?" Old Mrs. Wan asked anxiously, her face full of suspicion. She held Wan Xingmo's arm tightly.
Wan Xingmo nodded firmly, "It's dead. I pierced its neck with a sword, and it will definitely die. But we can't stay in the cave any longer. Many people died and the smell of blood is strong. We must hurry on."
Mrs. Wan remembered that her luggage was still in the cave, so she turned around and said, "Yes, let's go back and pack our luggage. It's getting light soon, so we have to hurry."
Wan Laoer finally caught up with his family and heard the news that the tiger was dead. He was so happy that he wanted to run away immediately, but he slipped and slid down the slope for some distance.
Seeing this, Wan Lao San screamed in shock: "Second brother!"
Wan Xingmo heard the noise and quickly went down to rescue people. Fortunately, Wan Laoer did not fall down. The ground was covered with thick fallen leaves. He just had some skin scrapes and was not seriously injured.
However, when he stood up, his attention was attracted by a green plant in front of him.
"This is......?"
