Perhaps because the tiger was making too much noise, the whole village became lively.
After a while, a group of men rushed out with weapons such as machetes and hoes, and it seemed that they wanted to fight the tiger.
Lin Changhe also saw the village chief of Shuanghe Village from inside.
"village head?"
Village chief Liu Mingyi was a little surprised to see them, "Brother Lin, why are you here?"
"Village chief, I think these two courtyards are good, so I brought my second brother and others to take a look. If they are suitable, we are ready to buy them.
But, this tiger..."
Liu Mingyi's face stiffened for a moment. Seeing that everyone in the Lin family was looking at him, he felt a little embarrassed for a moment.
After a moment, he sighed and said, "Oh! Forget it, I'll just tell you the truth.
I don't know when a tiger came to our mountain, but it has been running down the mountain from time to time recently.
There was even an incident where a villager who went up the mountain to chop firewood was injured. His entire arm was bitten off. It was really scary.
Since then, people have started to move out of the village one after another.
By now, nearly half of the original seventy or eighty households in the village have left.
Otherwise, this house and the land wouldn’t be so cheap!
I was worried that you wouldn't want to buy it after hearing the news, so I hid the matter of the tiger from you. I didn't expect that you would encounter it now.
This was not a fair thing for me to do, but luckily you haven't bought it yet, so you still have a chance to settle down in other villages."
Liu Mingyi concealed the matter of the tiger not for the money he earned from selling his house and land.
Most of the people left in the village now are from poor families, and even he cannot afford to buy so much land.
The sandy land would be fine, but it is such a shame to leave the good paddy fields lying idle. This is why I made the mistake in a moment of confusion.
Now that he said it, he felt a lot more relieved.
However, when the Lin family heard that the tiger would come down the mountain, they were not so scared.
So Lin Changhe did not refuse, "Village Chief, our family needs to discuss this matter carefully, please wait a moment!"
Liu Mingyi didn't expect there was still room for negotiation, and immediately said in surprise, "Okay, okay, you guys discuss it carefully.
If you're willing to stay, the price of the land is non-negotiable, but I can give you a lower price on the homestead!"
Lin Changhe nodded, and the family gathered together.
Jiang Xinian came up and said, "This village is good. When we encountered a tiger, basically all the men came. At least we are united.
Just buy it here, and leave the tiger matters to me!"
After spending such a long time together, the Lin Changhe brothers had some understanding of Jiang Xinian's character, so they didn't bother to be polite with him.
"Okay! Then, let's do it here!"
Little Bell was a little unhappy. "Grandpa, Grandpa, have you forgotten about me? I can help you too! Humph! Don't underestimate me!"
Lin Changhe smiled and rubbed her furry head, "Hey, Grandpa doesn't look down on you.
Our little Lingling is more capable than adults. It's because we have your master here, so we feel more at ease, hahahaha.
Okay, let's go, second brother, let's make it straight with the village chief!"
The two brothers came back to Liu Mingyi and said, "Village Chief, we have bought the house and the land. As for the tiger, we can find a way to help."
Liu Mingyi couldn't believe it, after all, this family looked like just ordinary people.
Before he could question it, the tiger's roar had already reached the foot of the mountain. Although it had not yet emerged from the woods, he could sense that it was very close.
All the villagers immediately formed a circle and pointed their weapons in the direction of the tiger's roar.
It would be a lie to say they weren't afraid, but for the sake of the elderly and children at home, they had no choice but to give it a try!
Jiang Xinian took two steps to Xiao Lingling and picked her up.
"Let's go, master and disciple, go say hello to the tiger."
Little Bell was also inexplicably excited, "Great, great! I haven't even seen a big tiger yet!"
The master and disciple moved very leisurely, looking like they were going for a walk, and walked slowly into the woods, leaving Liu Mingyi dumbfounded.
"Brother Lin, this is so confusing. How could a person like you go in with a child?
What if we run into trouble? Hey, hurry up, everyone, come up and help."
Lin Changshu didn't want them to see Xiao Lingling taking action, so he quickly stopped her.
"Don't worry, Village Chief. The man just now was my granddaughter's master, and he has amazing martial arts skills.
Since he brought Little Bell with him, he must have known what was going on, so everyone can rest assured."
The Lin family has now accepted Xiao Lingling's matter very well.
During the escape, first from the wolves and then from the killers, everyone has a certain understanding of Xiao Lingling's abilities.
With Jiang Xinian around, they felt very relieved.
Xiao Lingling was still very excited. She kept looking around and soon she could vaguely hear the tiger's footsteps.
Jiang Xi Nian gently put her down and said, "My dear disciple, how about we compete to see who can catch it first?"
Little Bell's eyes lit up, "Great! If I catch it first, how will Master reward me?"
Jiang Xinian raised his eyebrows. "If you catch it before me, Master will reward you with a copy of my medical notes from all these years. How about that? This is much more valuable than those medical books you've read!"
Little Bell nodded with satisfaction, "Okay, then just watch, Master! Three, two..."
After saying that, he ran into the woods without even waiting for the beginning of the story, which made Jiang Xinian so angry that he laughed.
"Hey girl, it hasn't even started yet and you have no moral principles!"
At this moment, Xiao Lingling was no longer there, and only her childish voice could be heard.
"Hahaha, I don't care. What is martial virtue? I don't know what it is! Master, you didn't say we have to wait until the beginning~"
Jiang Xinian shook his head helplessly and quickly chased after him. Although he had to compete, he couldn't let his little apprentice get hurt.
Xiao Lingling moved quickly and found the tiger's traces in a few seconds.
This tiger was actually a white tiger, very big in size, with a cub in its mouth, ready to continue running down the mountain.
Xiao Lingling immediately rushed forward, "Dabai, stop! Where are you going? Why are you going down the mountain to scare those villagers?"
The sudden appearance of the little bell interrupted the white tiger's movements. If it had not reacted quickly and braked suddenly, it would have hit the little bell.
Baihu looked at her intently, as if he could sense the unique aura on her body. He tentatively put the cub down, "Ah~~?"
Little Bell was speechless, her fingers trembling as she quietly released her Koi aura. "Talk properly! Why are you meowing like a cat?"
Then, Baihu's eyes immediately changed from surprise to joy.
