"What's so curious about that? Looking at the wound, it's most likely from an animal trap."
“But which village still has such a big animal trap?” Zhang Cheng asked back.
"Ergouzi, you mean... outsiders have come into the mountains?" The old village chief realized.
"Hmm." Zhang Cheng nodded. Anyone who dares to go into the mountains at this critical juncture is definitely a ruthless character who's risking their life. If the tiger could escape here, there's no guarantee those people won't follow the trail and come looking for it.
This is not the future; tigers are not yet protected animals, and animal protection laws will not be introduced for several years.
Zhang Cheng let out a soft sigh. "Let's do as Jianhao said and ignore it for now. Whether it lives or dies is none of our business."

"Let's do it that way!"
Many people's minds started racing. If they encountered such an injured tiger in the mountains, they would have struck it rich. Every part of a tiger is valuable. It's a pity it wandered into the village. If they really fought, they wouldn't be able to get past their wives when they got home; they'd definitely be locked out.
Zhang Cheng didn't want to cause any more trouble, so he put his hunting rifle back on his shoulder and was the first to turn around and leave.

I don't know how much time passed.
The large, striped tiger suddenly raised its head, looking at the piece of wolf meat that had been discarded in the snow not far away. An uncontrollable greed gleamed in its huge eyes. It dug its front paws into the snow, dragging its heavy and injured body, inch by inch, toward the piece of meat.
