Chapter 237 [Comeback]
Jiang Lili saw a big creature walking on the shore. Judging from its outline, it looked like a large cat, most likely a leopard, tiger or lion.
"Hurry, hurry, hurry! Turn the boat around." Jiang Lili quickly lowered her voice and instructed the escort who was driving the boat: "There's a big guy on the shore."
Escort Master Ge was just about to maneuver the boat to turn, but at this moment, a strong wind blew up on the sea, and a huge wave came over and hit their boat, pushing their alloy boat directly to the edge of the beach and bringing it to this big guy!
"Fuck!"
As the boat moved forward at high speed, Jiang Lili could see clearly at this moment that there was a tiger on the beach, eight feet long and four feet wide at the shoulders. It was orange-yellow in color with dark stripes on its body.
Jiang Lili and her crew's boat was pushed over by the waves, which obviously scared the tiger on the beach!
"ha--"
The tiger hissed threateningly and glared at them fiercely.
Jiang Lili discovered that there was more than one tiger on the shore. There was another tiger hiding behind the grass. It was smaller than this tiger and might be a female.
There are very few tigers on the tropical islands in the modern world. Jiang Lili, recalling the "Animal World" she had watched, judged that this might be the Javan tiger, which has become extinct in modern times. Its nickname was "Forest Protector" and it could prey on creatures such as wolves and wild boars that posed a threat to human survival.
The alloy boat was equipped with a fire pole and two long swords for self-defense.
Xin Che raised the knife and turned his wrist. The aura around him suddenly became cold, and the ferocity in the phoenix's eyes was even more intense than that of the two tigers.
The big cat in the lead sensed Xin Che's breath, stopped approaching the boat, and paced back and forth around their boat, making Jiang Lili nervous.
Is this a close-up experience that can be enjoyed without buying a ticket?
Jiang Lili held her breath and whispered, "This tiger is very rare. If we kill it, it might become extinct?"
Master Ge Biao had dealt with animal trainers before, and he knew the species of tiger. Animal trainers could tame this kind of tiger and were hired by many villages at the foot of the mountains to hunt ferocious hyenas and wild boars.
Escort Ge looked puzzled. "Miss Jiang, are you talking about Javan tigers? There are many Javan tigers on these islands in the South China Sea. They are just ordinary tigers!"
Jiang Lili was startled. This was ancient times, and tigers were considered a nuisance. Ancient people wished there were fewer tigers. She pondered for a moment, leaning closer to Xin Che and whispering, "Help me divert the three escorts' attention."
Xin Che immediately guessed what Jiang Lili was going to do, so he said to the three escorts, "There's something you need to be careful about when using this fire rod."
Upon hearing this, the three escorts immediately looked at the fire pole in Escort Cen's hand.
While they were turning around, Jiang Lili selected the two tigers, one male and one female, and put them into a red envelope.
As soon as the red envelope was sent to the group, Jiang Lili immediately left a message: [@江麗麗: Contains a tiger, please be careful when claiming! Especially you! @燕朝越]
The northwestern grassland where Yan Chaoyue stayed was not suitable for tropical tigers like the Javan tiger to survive. It would be a sin if he was really teleported there.
It was late at night and there was no movement in the group.
Jiang Lili gave Yan Chaoyue another reminder in private, and only then did the mood calm down a little.
At this time, after Xin Che and the three bodyguards finished talking, they turned around and found that the tiger on the shore was gone.
"Hey, where are those two big guys!"
"You're not hiding, waiting to attack us when we get off the boat, are you?"
The three bodyguards were unable to react for a moment when they discovered that the two big cats that posed a threat to their lives suddenly disappeared.
"I just saw them suddenly take a detour and go over there, as if they were chasing something."
Jiang Lili pointed in a random direction and said, "Let's get off the boat and rush to the camp!"
After mooring the boat, the five people quickly left the beach. Jiang Lili followed the route map given by Guan Yue and the marks that Guan Yue and the others had made along the way. After walking in the mountains for half an hour, they arrived at the camp.
As night falls and the sky is dotted with stars, tents of all sizes are scattered in the silent valley surrounded by mountains.
The patrolling soldiers were dressed in iron armor, armed with spears or bows and arrows, their figures elongated by the moonlight.
They were very alert and immediately noticed someone approaching.
"who!"
Escort Master Cen quickly blew the whistle they used to meet at Guanjiazhai.
"Lao Cen?!"
The patrolling soldiers had received a notice from the Guan village chief that Miss Jiang, Prince Jiang, and Escort Master Cen would arrive at the camp at night, but they did not dare to let their guard down for fear that someone would take advantage of the opportunity.
After confirming the other party's identity, the patrol team leader Cai Xing first instructed the remaining members to continue patrolling. Then he walked over excitedly and said to Jiang Lili and Xin Che, "Prince, Princess, I will take you to the tent to rest first."
While leading the way, he excitedly said to the three escorts, "Lao Cen, Lao Ge, Lao Yuan, it's been a long time since we last met!"
Escort Master Cen's face was filled with the excitement of seeing an old friend: "Ever since I was sent out on a mission by Village Chief Guan, it's been almost half a year since we last met."
Because they were assigned to be with Jiang Lili and would be away for a long time, Guan Yue chose three villagers who had no family to worry about in the village.
The three bodyguards all came from Guanjiazhai and had a good relationship with Captain Cai.
Escort Cen looked at Captain Cai with satisfaction: "Old Cai, it's been so long since we last met. Your temper is almost as good as that of a centurion in the barracks."
Speaking of this topic, Captain Cai's expression suddenly became a little serious. He glanced at Xin Che secretly. That was all thanks to the devilish training that the prince had given them at sea.
Not only did it allow them to quickly overcome the problem of acclimatization at sea, but the overall appearance also made a qualitative leap.
The prince just returned to the island, so there's probably no need to rush them into extra training in the morning!
Captain Cai led Jiang Lili and the others to the rest tent and said, "You must be exhausted. Rest first. We'll catch up tomorrow!"
The five people were tired from traveling on the sea, so they went into their respective tents and fell into a deep sleep.
The moon sets and the stars sink, and the sky turns pale.
The next morning, when Jiang Lili woke up, she saw the group discussing what to do with the two Javan tigers.
@Zhang Xiaopang: Li Li, these are truly extinct animals! How about I put them in a cage, contact the Forestry Bureau, and hand this pair of tigers over to the state?
Jiang Lili's eyes lit up when she saw Zhang Xiaopang's proposal in the group.
@Jiang Lili: This idea is feasible!
@Guan Yue: Li Li, are you up?! Hurry up, I'm waiting for you to feed me breakfast! I've already sent Xiaopang the food I wanted.
After sending this message, Guan Yue rushed into Jiang Lili's tent.
"You greedy girl!" Jiang Lili looked helplessly at Guan Yue who was wiping her saliva. "You've become the top bandit, but you look no different than when you were hiding under the desk eating spicy noodles!"
As the two waited for Xiaopang to feed them, Master Liao sent a message: "Li Li, do you remember those fishermen who stopped by our village to rest because of the storm? They're here again, tired from fishing at sea, and looking for a place to rest and eat in the shelter of the typhoon."
