Chapter 563 Fighting the Tiger
The old man thought about it and felt that it would be difficult to shoot an arrow through the bow with one arrow, so he changed direction as he was told.
The two of them turned around back to back.
Sweat was about to break out on Zhou Guo's forehead.
She felt an invisible pressure slowly approaching, making it hard to breathe. Her palms were sweating, but she did not retreat a single step.
The woods were eerily quiet at the moment, so quiet that even a needle falling in the fallen leaves would sound like a thunderclap.
The old man touched her.
She knew it was coming.
She didn't know how much time had passed, but it seemed like a very long time to her.
A pair of small light bulbs slowly appeared about five or six feet ahead. Under the light of the fire, they looked like searchlights.
Zhou Guo was about to speak when the thing with glowing eyes roared and pounced on him like lightning.
"Master, be careful!" Before he could finish his words, the arrow in his hand shot out.
Unfortunately, it seems I didn’t win!
Following a roar that echoed throughout the forest, the two men rolled to the side, avoiding the fatal attack.
The old man then shot the second arrow, which hit the target, but it seemed to be of no use.
The big tiger stood up majestically, slowly turned its head, opened its mouth, and blew a breath of turbid air towards the two of them.
Zhou Guo only felt a hot and smelly air coming towards him and he held his breath.
The fully drawn bow and arrow shot out again, and it moved, and the arrow just passed under its belly.
She couldn't help but curse.
It's damn fast! As agile as a rabbit!
The big beast pounced towards her, and she dodged to the side.
The big palm was only a grain of rice away from her shoulder. When she dodged it, her heart couldn't help but beat wildly.
I couldn't help but shout to the old man opposite, "No, it's too fast!"
As soon as she finished speaking, the guy turned around and rushed towards her again. Zhou Guo couldn't help but wail, she hadn't even taken a breath yet.
The old man rushed over from the opposite side and punched it hard on the neck.
The tiger paused, then flicked its neck and threw him three or four feet away.
Fortunately, the old man was agile and he turned over and stood up again.
However, this took a lot of effort and I couldn't help but gasp.
Zhou Guo's heart was pounding, and he was relieved to see that he was fine.
But the tiger was enraged by him and rushed forward without even looking at Zhou Guo.
The old man supported himself on the ground with one hand, clenched his other hand into a fist, flew up, and punched it in the eye.
The big tiger finally felt the pain, roared angrily, and swung its body to pounce on the old man again.
The old man had just landed on the ground and hadn't even stood firmly yet. This time there was no escape.
It happened so quickly that the tiger pounced on him. Zhou Guo pulled the old man to the side by the collar of his clothes, but was finally hit on the shoulder by the tiger's palm. There was a click, and it seemed to be broken!
Before she could let go, the guy turned around and came again.
Zhou Guo lamented, thinking that he really shouldn't have provoked this thing.
He pushed the old man aside, fell backwards, and crawled under the belly of the big tiger along the ground. He thrust the arrow in his hand hard into its belly, leaving the tail of the arrow outside.
The tiger felt pain and sank suddenly, its body swaying and rolling.
Before Zhou Guo could get half of his body out, he suddenly felt like a mountain pressing down on him. His eyes went dark and he felt dizzy and wanted to vomit. He felt like he was punched in the chest.
With both hands flipped upwards, the huge thing was lifted up.
All this happened in the blink of an eye. The old man was so scared that his soul flew away. Just as he was about to stand up, he saw his young disciple lift the big beast away. He stood up himself, but his legs went weak and he almost sat down.
Zhou Guo was enraged. He stood up, moved forward, and quickly grabbed the tiger's tail with both hands. With a "hey", he lifted it up with force and smashed it to the ground beside him.
The beast howled and struggled violently to break free.
She grabbed it tighter, gritted her teeth, lifted it up and threw it to the side again. She didn't know how many times it fell. At first, she could still hear its howling that echoed throughout the forest. Later, the howling turned into wailing, and the voice gradually became lower. Then, the sound gradually disappeared, and it became motionless!
The old man saw that she was like an enraged hen with its feathers standing on end, dragging the big insect's tail and throwing it around like a madman.
Several large dents were created on the surrounding land!
Dirt, fallen leaves, and even small stones were splashed.
I couldn't help but take a few steps back, and the snow on the trees fell down.
It was not known how long had passed before Zhou Guo stopped, threw the dead insect to the ground, sat down on the ground and gasped for breath.
The torch was put out.
She lay on the ground with her arms and legs spread out. The forest was pitch black at that moment, and it was no exaggeration to say that you couldn't see your hand in front of you.
It seemed to be snowing again. Apart from the breathing of the master and disciple, the only sound around her was the rustling of snowflakes falling on the leaves and the ground. She had never listened carefully before, but now she realized that falling snow also makes a sound.
After a while, when he got used to the darkness, the old man stood up.
He walked up to Zhou Guo and asked with concern: "How is it? Where are you hurt?"
Zhou Guo stopped panting, sat up, and said, "I'm fine, I was just pressed a little. Is your arm broken? Let's go back quickly."
The old man said, “No need.”
He tried twisting his shoulder, then suddenly lifted it up. With a crisp click, the arm was successfully put in place. The old man tried twisting it again, "Okay, it's connected."
Zhou Guo was relieved, so he stood up and grabbed the creature's tail and said, "Let's go quickly. The bloody smell is so strong, maybe it will attract other wild animals."
The old man picked up the big beast and threw it on his shoulder to carry it on his back so that he wouldn't have to worry about losing sight of the road. He walked in front and said, "All the other small wild animals in this forest and this mountain have been scared away by it. As the saying goes, there can't be two tigers in one mountain. Who dares to come to this mountain without any eyes?"
"Wait a minute." Zhou Guo said hurriedly, "My arrow, let me look for it!"
An arrow is not cheap, and it is specially made. He took out the dagger, found a pine tree, cut some firewood down, tied it to the torch, and lit it.
The arrows lost by the two were found one by one and loaded onto the bows.
The two of them then came out of the mountain.
Halfway through the journey, they went out of their way to find the deer and fox that they had hidden before. Although they could not compare with tigers, they were all good things. If it were a pheasant or a rabbit, the two of them would definitely not want it.
The Zhou family was in chaos at the moment. It was getting dark and the two men had not returned yet.
Li couldn't sit still anymore and wanted to send people into the mountains to look for him.
Zhou Dacang said, "Sister-in-law, don't be anxious. They have only been in the mountains for a short time. According to their temperament, they will not come back if they can't find the target. It will probably take a while. They are both quite skilled. As long as they don't run into a big beast or a blind bear, they will be fine. Even if they do run into one, the two of them, one old and one young, are not easy to deal with. Even a big beast will become meat on their plates and they can't escape it."
Zhou Gu and others all thought it made sense.
Li calmed down a little.
