Chapter 374 Chen Zhenlong
Chu Ci reacted quickly, coming for him, right?
Then this place, right now, is where this beast will die!
Chu Ci immediately shot out a crossbow arrow, which was accurate and powerful, and it destroyed one of the beast's eyes at the first shot.
The tiger roared even more miserably in pain, and its ferocity was aroused.
At this moment, Shan Yufeng shouted loudly: "Let's go together!"
Before he finished speaking, he took the lead and chopped at the beast's neck.
The yamen runners showed no sign of weakness when they saw this. Except for two people who were protecting the man they had just rescued, the rest of them all held spears and stabbed the beast in different parts of its body.
Chu Ci seized the opportunity and accurately threw a packet of sleeping pills into the beast's mouth.
This drug was specially prepared by Chu Ci. It contains a variety of rare herbs and has extremely strong medicinal properties.
Therefore, as soon as the drug entered the tiger's mouth, the beast felt dizzy, and the strength of its limbs seemed to be drained away in an instant, and its originally swift attack momentum also slowed down.
Its originally strong and agile body began to shake, its steps became soft and weak, and its majestic aura also dissipated for the most part.
Shan Yufeng saw this and shouted, "Disperse!"
Then he turned to Chu Ci and shouted, "Princess, use the crossbow to disturb them!"
Chu Ci understood immediately. Her eyes fixed, and she instantly raised her arm. Her fingers nimbly pulled the trigger, and the crossbow arrows on her arms were shot out almost at the same time.
The crossbow arrows seemed to be given life, rushing towards the target at an extremely fast speed.
They pierced into the beast's body with precision, breaking through the wind.
Soon, several holes appeared on the beast's body, and blood gushed out, staining its fur red.
Its body became even more shaky. Its originally held high head now drooped heavily, and its limbs trembled constantly, as if it could no longer support its huge body.
Seeing this, the figure in the distance became anxious. Several loud whistles sounded instantly, and he was about to call his tiger back.
Upon seeing this, Shan Yufeng shouted, "Stop it! We must not let this beast have the chance to hurt or kill anyone again!
After saying that, he picked up the big knife in his hand and chopped at the beast's neck again.
However, although the tiger's eyes were blurry and its movements were slow, it continued to resist based on instinct.
It twisted its body with all its might, trying to avoid Shanyu Feng's attack, and let out low roars from time to time, as if making its last struggle.
The figure in the distance finally became anxious at this time. His face turned ashen, his teeth were clenched, and he was exerting his internal strength to the extreme.
In an instant, air surged around him, his clothes rustled, and he hurried towards them.
"Let Xiaohuer go, I will take Xiaohuer away immediately." He shouted at the top of his lungs, his voice full of anxiety and anger.
Haha, just leave.
How can we make up for the lives that were harmed by them?
Because the distance was too far, Chu Ci directly asked "Xing'er" for help. A sharp arrow whizzed out in an instant and went straight towards the man.
However, even Chu Ci did not expect that even with the help of "Xing'er", the man would flash like a ghost at the critical moment and avoid the fatal arrow.
"Hey, you got some!" Chu Ci couldn't help but shout softly, a flicker of surprise in his eyes, but more of a spark of fighting spirit. "I'm sure you can dodge once, but what about two, three, five, or even more?" Without hesitation, Chu Ci raised his hand and fired again.
Her movements were smooth and flowing, and she shot out sharp arrows like meteors, with fierce momentum, heading straight for the man.
At the same time, Shanyu Feng and his men were not idle either, and attacked the bloody tiger fiercely.
At this time, the drug had reached its maximum effect, and the tiger could no longer resist.
Its once majestic body now collapsed to the ground, and it could only make whimpering sounds, the voices filled with pain and despair, no longer as fierce as before.
At this time, just one more blow would turn the living tiger into a dead tiger.
At this critical moment, its owner rushed forward regardless of everything and used his body to block the tiger.
He suddenly vomited blood and was seriously injured, but he successfully saved the tiger's life.
"No, no! Let Xiaohu go--" He shouted at the top of his lungs, his voice full of pain and pleading, his eyes full of concern and reluctance for the tiger.
The scene was so shocking that Chu Ci and the others were stunned for a moment.
Especially Shanyu Feng, the sword he raised high stopped in mid-air, his face was full of astonishment, like a frozen painting.
The rescued person yelled, "What are you doing? They've done so much evil and killed so many people! If you can't do it, I'll do it!"
His eyes were wide open, veins bulged on his forehead, and his voice was angry and resolute.
After hearing his shout, Chu Ci and Shan Yu Feng suddenly realized what they had just done and were actually frightened by this small scene.
But even though I understand it in my heart, I can't lose face.
"Tie the man up and go back to interrogate him thoroughly." Shan Yufeng said in a deep voice.
However, his expression was still somewhat ugly, as if he was upset about his absent-mindedness just now.
Chu Ci was stunned for a moment, then he took out a bottle of medicine from the cloth bag he was carrying and said unhappily, "Here, don't die on the way!"
The man who was rescued curled his lips in disdain, his eyes revealing a hint of dissatisfaction and contempt, but perhaps considering the current situation, he finally said nothing more.
Chu Ci knew she was in the wrong and a look of embarrassment flashed across her face. She bit her lip and wanted to explain something, but she didn't know where to start, so she could only sigh softly.
Then, she turned around, raised her knife, and quickly killed the beast. She then instructed the yamen runner beside her: "Skin it and sell it. Use the money to compensate the injured villagers of Cuiliu Village!"
Hearing this, the man who was rescued looked a little better: "That's more than enough, but don't let it be embezzled by others."
While his tone was still sarcastic, it was no longer as hostile as before. "What is the name of this Madam, Chen Zhenlong?" He clasped his fists slightly and looked at Chu Ci, his eyes filled with curiosity and inquiry.
Chu Ci raised his eyebrows slightly when he heard this, and a hint of a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth. He said, "I am Chu Ci, the Princess Yixin, who was personally appointed by the Emperor. I am also the wife of Fan Jingrui, the Magistrate of Tingzhou County. Mr. Chen, are you satisfied with my status?"
There was a hint of pride in her eyes, but she was also assessing the other person's reaction.
Upon hearing this, Chen Zhenlong was startled for a moment, a flicker of surprise in his eyes, and then a look of respect emerged on his face. He quickly clasped his fists and saluted again, saying, "It's the Princess. I apologize for my offense just now. I hope the Princess will forgive me."
But his eyes still showed curiosity, as if he was secretly wondering why a woman of such noble status as Chu Ci would appear in such a dangerous situation.
