Build the Traveler Alliance from Scratch

Chapter 7 Orion
This series of operations may seem complicated, but in fact it is just a blink of an eye.

In the eyes of Chang'an and Jili who were on the sidelines, it was just a face-to-face meeting, and the mother pressed the wild boar to the ground, biting the back of its neck tightly, and letting the other party struggle under her body.

Seeing this scene, the little tiger Ji Li cheered and jumped around in place.

Chang'an was much calmer. It stood silently on the spot, scanning its surroundings, as if it was sweeping for its mother, wary of any third-party threats that might appear to intercept it.

This was absolutely impossible for Chang'an half a month ago.

At that time, it was as playful and active as Geely, even worse.

But now, under the strengthening of the gray fog, Chang'an not only has an improved IQ, but also seems to have become much more mature.

"As expected of the chosen tiger in my fancy!"

Lin Zhongtian watched Chang An's movements with satisfaction.

At this moment, there was an indiscernible low cry from the bushes and low vegetation not far away.

Lin Zhongtian was taken aback for a moment, and then reacted instantly.

"It's human!"

Lin Zhongtian's eyes lit up, and he immediately jumped onto the nearby tree.

After repeating this, he came to the top of the head where the sound came from in the blink of an eye.

Looking down, a man wearing simple leather armor, holding a hunting bow, and a machete on his waist squatted behind a tree, carefully observing the outside through the gap between the weeds and bushes.

"Grandpa Mountain God bless, Grandpa Mountain God bless..."

"I implore your boss to be merciful and bless me with a safe trip."

Seeing the scene of the tiger hunting the wild boar, Li Erhu broke out in cold sweat on his forehead. While praying to the mountain god in his heart, he clenched his family hunting bow tightly and moved back as slowly as possible.

As a hunter of Stone Village under Yingzui Mountain, Li Erhu is very familiar with this mountain.

He knows every plant, every tree, every flower and every stone in the mountains.

With a strong physique, a hunting bow in his hand, and skilled trapping skills, there are few beasts in this mountain that Li Erhu dare not provoke, but today he encountered two.

One is the well-deserved overlord of this mountain, the adult female tiger.

The other was the wild boar king, weighing six hundred catties, who died in the tiger's mouth.

According to his previous understanding of these two ferocious beasts, when the two sides came, the king did not see the king.

As long as you get close to the other party's territory and smell the other party's scent, the two parties will retreat in a tacit understanding.

Unexpectedly, the big worm was the first to break this tacit understanding and appeared in front of the wild boar king.

When he saw this scene at first, Li Erhu was only surprised, but not nervous or scared.

Because besides the wild boar king and the tiger, he also saw two cubs watching from behind.

And in the case of bringing cubs, it is absolutely impossible for a tiger to easily attack a threatening target.

Li Erhu originally planned to take advantage of the confrontation between the two fierce beasts and slip away quietly, but who would have thought that the fierce tiger would attack without hesitation and kill the rampaging beast with overwhelming force. The long-awaited wild boar king.

This time, Li Erhu realized something was wrong.

Tiger's strength and speed far exceeded his expectations.

The exaggerated reaction speed and flexibility even made him feel hopeless and powerless, feeling that even the archery he was proud of could not hurt him in the slightest.

"Grandpa Mountain God, if I, Li Erhu, can go back alive today, I will definitely go to the temple to kowtow to you!"

Li Erhu was extremely nervous and kept praying to the mountain god.

But perhaps it was because he was too nervous that Li Erhu accidentally stepped on a dead branch in the process of retreating.

"Squeak..."

A small voice sounded, and Li Erhu froze there, his back instantly wet with cold sweat.

Not far away, Chang'an, who had been vigilant all the time, caught this subtle abnormal sound.

It turned its head in an instant, and turned its gaze to the direction from which the sound came.

"Ow!!"

The roar of the tiger sounded like milk, echoing in the mountains and forests.

Li Erhu suddenly trembled, his whole body felt numb, a surge of hot blood surged into his heart, and spread to his whole body at an extremely fast speed with the pacing of the heart.

Without any hesitation, Li Erhu got up and ran away.

But how could his running speed be compared to the gray mist-enhanced tiger.

Before he could take a few steps, a gust of wind whizzed past him and stopped in front of him.

Li Erhu hurriedly stopped and took a closer look, it was a half-grown tiger cub.

"Hmph, it's fine if it's your mother. How dare a half-grown tiger cub block my way?"

Li Erhu had harsh words on his lips, but he felt a little nervous for some reason.

The mountain people who can make a living as a hunter have always been courageous.

Especially Li Erhu, a lone ranger who relies on courage, will never lack the courage to face danger directly.

Although he felt a little uneasy in his heart, Li Erhu still raised his hunting bow without hesitation, and shot an arrow at the half-grown tiger at the fastest speed in his life.

"call out--"

Accompanied by the ear-piercing sound of piercing through the air, an arrow shot towards the little tiger's head like lightning.

The little tiger's eyes were cold and indifferent, and before the arrow approached him, he burst out, leaped obliquely and vertically to avoid the arrow, and then rushed towards him at a speed that Li Erhu couldn't react at all.

In a split second, the little tiger came in front of him, jumped up and swung its paws away.

A strong sense of crisis came to his mind, and Li Erhu subconsciously raised his hunting bow to resist.

"laugh--"

The tiger's claw swung across, and the tough bow arm broke in two instantly.

The tough animal skin bound on the forearm didn't serve any defensive purpose, and was easily torn apart by the tiny claws.

Fortunately, the cub was not too big, and its claws were not as long as those of an adult tiger. After breaking through layers of tough animal skin, it could only leave four bloodstains on Li Erhu's forearm.

"what!!"

Li Erhu roared angrily, quickly pulled out the machete pinned to his waist with one hand, ignored the danger of being bitten with the other hand, and slammed towards the little tiger's neck, trying to press it to the ground. After controlling it, Hacked to death again.

But the little tiger was far more flexible than he had imagined, and with just a twist, he avoided his palm.

Li Erhu knew something was wrong, staring at his red eyes, he swung the machete in his hand vigorously, trying to force the little tiger back.

He did indeed succeed, the little tiger in front of him seemed to be very aware of the power of metal, he dodged repeatedly when he slashed, and retreated seven steps away from him in a few vertical leaps.

"Roar--"

At the same time, two other tigers had also surrounded them.

The three tigers stood in three directions, forming an angle and trapping Li Erhu in the middle.

Seeing this situation, Li Erhu felt endless despair, but soon he calmed down.

As a hunter, from the first day he entered the mountain, he was ready to die in the mountain.

It's not in his character to catch him without a fight. Even if he wants to die, he must at least bring a tiger cub to die with him.

"Come on! Tiger cubs, grandpa will fight with you!"

Li Erhu roared with red eyes, switched the machete in his left hand to his right, then stepped back slowly, leaning against a thick pine tree to confront the three tigers.

At this moment, the three tigers, who were eager to try, suddenly withdrew their murderous aura.

The largest and most threatening adult tiger even opened its mouth and yawned, licking the pig's blood that hadn't dried up on its chin, turned around as if nothing had happened, and walked towards the wild boar king's corpse.

That nonchalant appearance made Li Erhu unconsciously stunned.

"How is this going?"

Li Erhu was at a loss, completely unclear about the situation in front of him.

It wasn't until the little tiger who had hurt him just now happily ran towards the nearby woods that he suddenly discovered that beside a big tree ten meters away, there was a tall and burly stone man standing there, watching him quietly. .

Li Erhu was taken aback for a moment, then his eyes widened, looking at the tall stone man, he couldn't help but blurted out:

"Mountain... Grandfather of the Mountain God?!"
