Translator: 549690339
There were currently forty-six families and more than two hundred people in the village.
Zhang Lizheng was a man in his forties. He and the village Hunter, tu Dachuan, were leading the team. They brought more than 30 strong men between the ages of 25 and 40.
Everyone was holding sharp weapons and entered the mountain after five o ‘clock.
However, after walking around the mountain for six hours, and it was already past midnight, they still couldn’t find any traces of the big cat.
They had already walked a long way past the small waterfall and did not dare to go any deeper.
Although there were no big cats in the mountains these years, there were wild boars and wolves. Although there were more than 30 people, if they went deeper and the big guys gathered together, they would all die.
So, Zhang Lizheng asked everyone to come back.
When he came out of the back mountain path, Gu shouxin saw a figure flashing by on another path not far away.
He frowned but didn’t say anything. He continued to follow everyone back.
After returning home, the light in Gu Xin’s room was still on. Gu shouxin walked over.
“You’re back? How is it? Did you catch him?” Cai Xiaolian saw the figure by the window and knew it was Gu shouxin. She put on her clothes and walked out.
“No, I haven’t. How’s Xinxin?” Gu shouxin asked.
“You’re dreaming! One moment, she was shouting for her parents and sister to leave, and the next moment, she was shouting No. It’s scary to see a big cat biting someone’s neck at such a close distance.” Cai Xiaolian whispered.
“I see that you’re not asleep yet, are you hungry? Do you want to eat something? I’ll go to the kitchen and make you something.” Gu shouxin asked.
“No need. I’ll check on Xinxin’s condition later. If she’s still dreaming, I’m going to wake her up.” Cai Xiaolian shook her head.
“Okay, then I’ll go to sleep. If there’s anything, wake me and niannian.” Gu shouxin nodded.
Back in his room, Gu shouxin thought of the figure he saw just now and Gu Xin’s frowning and scared look in her sleep. After sitting for a while, he took the bow he just got from the old house and went out.
Grandma Gu was the daughter of a Hunter. She had a complete set of hunting items and she took good care of herself.
The speed of a person was quite fast. Soon, Gu shouxin walked to the deepest part of the group of people.
He continued to walk forward without any hesitation.
Although he could not guarantee that he could kill the big cat, he could definitely ensure his own safety. And if he guessed correctly, the shadow he saw entering the mountain when he went down the mountain just now was Lu Zheng.
Gu shouxin didn’t know if he had touched Lu Zheng, or if the figure he saw was not Lu Zheng.
The wind in the mountains was very harsh in winter. Although it did not snow at the village of the three Forks, it was bone-piercingly cold.
“Roar ~”
After walking for about half an hour, Gu shouxin heard a whistling sound. This place was already very far from the village. Even if it was quiet at night, the village wouldn’t be able to hear it.
Gu shouxin raised his spirits and walked towards the source of the sound.
When he got closer, he realized that there were two big cats, but he didn’t see anyone.
He hid behind a big tree and set up his bow. His ears twitched and he drew his bow.
“Roar ~”
All of a sudden, a big cat roared and came to him, while the other one was still there.
Not long after the 15th day of the 12th lunar month, under the moonlight, Gu shouxin aimed at the Tiger’s head, shot an arrow, and then immediately climbed up the tree.
The big cat dodged the arrow and pounced over.
The other big cat was trying to climb up the tree. Lu Zheng was on that tree.
