The Record of Swordsmen in the Late Sui and Early Tang Dynasties

Chapter 865 Chapter 850 Four: Two Brothers Fight Tigers
As soon as he heard that he was going to catch a tiger, the iron bull also became excited.

"Brother, we will leave in a while. The tiger has been caught, and we will eat tiger meat tonight.

Brother, prepare a cauldron at home!In addition, prepare the seasoning for the boiled meat.

Otherwise, we won't be able to eat tiger meat tonight. "

The prefect Huang grinned when he heard this.

"What trouble is it to prepare these things! In a short time, I will have all these things ready.

However, if you want to catch the tiger back, it will be difficult! "

Huang Zhifu looked at his two sons and said: "Why don't you two hurry up and inform the yamen servants to prepare the horses for the two imperial envoys? How can this be done in a hurry!"

The youngest son, Huang Tianyu, said quickly after hearing this, "I'll do this job! I don't need my brother to run errands anymore!"

After speaking, Huang Tianyu ran out.

Huang Zhifu looked at Duan Wuji and asked: "Brother, you need me to prepare something! I will prepare it for you right away!"

Duan Wuji thought for a while and said: "When the sun is going to the west, you tell me that the leader, his name is Cao Qiubao, he is also one of my elder brothers, and ask him to bring twenty brothers to pick us up in the western mountain. Let's go.

Tell 'em to ride over, brother, do you understand? "

"Okay! Okay! I'll send someone to notify them right away. Don't worry about this matter! It will definitely not delay your business."

"Okay! Let's make a deal like that!"

After finishing speaking, Duan Wuji pulled Tieniu's hand.

"Brother Tie Niu, let's go!

Let's change clothes and set off right away. It's too late. If we can catch the tiger, we dare not say anything.

If we have the chance, maybe the two of us can catch other beasts! "

Tieniu stood up, and the two bid farewell to the prefect Huang's family, and then walked straight to the yard where they lived.

When the prefect Huang saw it, he quickly said to his eldest son, "Tianba! Don't you often go to that military camp in our city!

Just now your uncle said that in the afternoon, let your uncle's leading rider bring [-] soldiers and ride horses to the west mountain to find them. Did you hear clearly? "

Huang Tianba stood up after hearing this.

"Daddy, I didn't miss a word of what I said just now, I heard everything clearly.

Don't worry about this matter, I will inform them now. "

After finishing speaking, Huang Tianba turned around and went out.

When Huang Zhifu saw that his two sons had left, he couldn't help shaking his head, and then went to do his own job.

Duan Wuji and Tie Niu went back to their own yard, took off the loose clothes outside, and changed into tight clothes.

After everything was packed, the two of them hurried out of the house. They came to the gate of the yamen, mounted their horses, and headed straight for the southwest direction!

The two brothers both had swords hanging from their waists, big iron rods hanging from the horse's victory hook and bird's wing ring, and bows and arrows hanging from the beast's scorpion. They were fully armed and came straight to the western mountain.

This Fujian-Zhejiang area is full of mountains and rivers, and has always been very sparsely populated. The degree of population density is not comparable to that of the mainland, so there are a lot of wild animals.

These places are located in the tropics, with grass and lush vegetation all year round. There are many foxes and hares in the mountains, and wild boars and sheep can be seen everywhere!

Due to the lush vegetation, many wild animals, and relatively few people, this southern country is relatively desolate.

Duan Wuji and Tie Niu rode horses through the barren mountains and ridges, looking for the best hunting place. Finally, the two found a pond by the edge of the woods. It looks like a dozen acres of land.

Because the sun is not yet at noon and the weather is not too hot, Duan Wuji looked at the small pond and said: "Brother Tieniu, why don't we go hunting in this pond.

When the weather gets hot, those animals will come here to drink water, so let's shoot a few wild animals here!In any case, we can't leave empty-handed!

Wouldn't it be embarrassing if he worked for half a day and got nothing? "

"Well, that's what you said, so no matter what, we have to hunt down a few wild beasts and go back!

If we go back empty-handed, our eldest brother will laugh at us again. The two of them put the horses in a place with lush grass by the pond and let them graze freely. The two of them found a place under the shade of a tree and began to rest.

The weather was getting hotter and hotter, Duan Wuji and Tie Niu couldn't stand the heat anymore, and the sun gradually entered the noon.

The weather became dreary and hot, the mountains became silent, and the whole world seemed to become lifeless.

Duan Wuji stood up.

"Brother Tieniu, get up and move around! The weather is hot now, and those animals will be thirsty in a short while, and they should come to this pond to drink water in a short time.

Anyway, let's get some wild animals back today. "

Saying that, Duan Wuji stretched his muscles and bones, took off his precious carved bow, and put a carved feather arrow on the bow string casually.

Seeing Duan Wuji like this, Tieniu quickly stood up, moved a little and took off the bow and arrow.

Duan Wuji was staring at the pond, ready to shoot arrows at any time!

Seeing Duan Wuji like this, Tieniu quickly stood up and took off his own bow and arrow!
Tieniu casually took the arrow and stared at the pond.

Not too long ago, a group of wild goats came out of the woods first. The group of wild goats consisted of a dozen or so, and led by the head sheep, they rushed straight to the pond. Then, the group of wild goats began to bow their heads to drink water.

Duan Wuji suddenly let go, and a sharp arrow shot out with a whoosh.

A fat wild goat fell to the ground, and Duan Wuji immediately put on another bow and arrow.

When Tieniu saw that Duan Wuji had already released an arrow, he quickly shot his own arrow as well.

As another goat fell to the ground, the goats immediately became alert.

Not daring to neglect, the two hurriedly released the other bow and arrow.

As the four wild goats fell to the ground, the flock became frightened. After the wild goats were terrified, they immediately ran towards the woods and disappeared in an instant.

Two men ran over and pulled the four wild goats over.

The two of them saw that the four wild goats were fat enough, each of them was very fat!

Duan Wuji said with a smile: "With these four wild goats, we didn't return empty-handed. We have something to say when we go back."

Tie Niu said with a smile: "Yes! That's true. If you return empty-handed, you really don't have the face to show people."

At this moment, there was a sound of tigers roaring in the distance.

The two looked at each other with a smile, and threw the bow and arrow in their hands on the ground.

The two took off the big sticks from the horses, and made preparations to fight the tiger at any time.

Before long, the tiger rushed out roaring, Duan Wuji and the others saw that there were still two tigers.

It is estimated that this is a male and a female. After the tiger rushed out, it rushed out of the pond immediately.

When the two of them saw it, it was estimated that the two tiger brothers were already thirsty.

When the two saw the two tigers rushing out of the pond, they immediately rushed out with big sticks in their hands!The two rushed towards the two tigers respectively.

In fact, the tiger had already smelled the scent of people, but it was so unbearably thirsty that it didn't catch the prey.

Seeing two people rushing out now, he immediately stopped drinking, roared, and rushed towards them.

The two of them also knew that there are only a few tricks for the tiger to eat people, that is, first the tiger pounces, and then kicks the prey's face with its hind legs.

Although these moves are not too many, they are fierce and extremely fast, and ordinary people cannot avoid them.

Among all the hunters, there are very few people who can escape these three tricks very smoothly.

The first two moves of ordinary people are taken down by tigers.

How many times have the two of them fought the tiger, and they know the tiger's moves very well.

Therefore, the two of them didn't panic very much. After the tiger rushed over, the two of them dodged to the side respectively, and avoided the tiger's sudden pounce.

When the two tigers saw that this move failed, they kicked their hind legs violently towards the attacker, and each of them flew obliquely, and the tiger's move failed again.

The tiger flicked its tail violently, and swept towards the two waists!The two of them dodged the tiger's move with a sudden dodge.

Just when the two tigers were about to make a comeback, the two killed each other.

Duan Wuji hit the tiger's head with a big stick, and this stick smashed the tiger's head into pieces. The tiger died there without even moving again!
"Your moves have already been performed, so don't move, just lie down here obediently."

The iron bull's big stick just hit the tiger's waist, and just this iron stick smashed the tiger's bones and tendons.

The fierce tiger was still alive at the moment, and let out a low growl, stretched out a tiger claw, and wanted to grab the iron bull.

Tieniu smiled slightly when he saw it.

"You are about to die, I didn't expect you to be so powerful!

Alright, you can't move anymore, why don't you stay here for me! "

Tie Niu's big stick moved forward and hit the tiger's head, and the tiger immediately shattered its head and stopped moving.

The two let out a long breath, killing these two tigers, the action was only in the blink of an eye!

The two threw the big sticks on the ground, grabbed the tiger by the tail, and dragged them to the place where the mountain goats were kept!

The two men picked up the big stick again and returned to the place where they were standing.

The two were still thinking about hunting some wild animals in order to have a good meal when they went back, when suddenly there was a sound of horseshoes in the distance.

Then Cao Qiubao led the brothers over.

"You two virtuous brothers, are you hunting wild animals? Why don't you call me when you come out to hunt!

To be honest, I am also a good hunter! "

Tie Niu pointed to the ground with his hand.

"Isn't this! This is the wild animal we stopped, isn't it all lying on the ground!"

When Cao Qiubao saw the wild animals on the ground, he was shocked!

"You two virtuous brothers, you two are too capable, you have managed so many wild animals in such a short time!

this!This is too powerful!
Um!These two tigers are not too small, and each must weigh more than 300 catties! "

Duan Wuji laughed when he heard this.

"Well! That's what it looks like! Today we brothers have nothing to do, isn't that right, let's go out and relax!
Brother Cao, carry these wild animals on horseback, and let the brothers get all these things to the magistrate's yamen!
Tonight, you can follow us to eat tiger meat. "

"What? Are you going back now? Shoot a few more wild animals. I'm here. If you don't kill this wild animal, go back!

If you do this, it's somewhat unreasonable! "

Duan Wuji said with a smile: "It's a bit late now, if you can't hit the prey, you dare not say it!

I intend to ask the brothers to get the six prey back first, otherwise will they still be cooked at night? "

Cao Qiu Baobao nodded.

"That's exactly what you said!

Well!Then I will send six brothers to get these prey back first, so as not to have to eat at night!

You six come here, throw these prey on the horse, you can go back now!
Let me tell you that you took these six prey to the magistrate's yamen, and if you get them back, it's nothing to do with you, did you hear me clearly? "

The six people listened and nodded.

"My lord, we know!"

Six people led the horses, carried four wild goats and two tigers onto the horses, and then the six rode away.

At this moment, a group of wild boars came to drink water from the pond again. There must have been about twenty of these wild boars!

Duan Wuji saw it and said with a smile: "There are more prey coming, let's shoot a few more of them and leave immediately!
The wild beasts in this mountain are endless. "

After speaking, Duan Wuji took the lead in bending his bow and nodding his arrow, and with a whoosh, the arrow flew towards a wild boar drinking water!
The arrow hit the pig's forehead, and the pig fell to the ground.

Tieniu and Cao Qiubao then also shot arrows, and the other two wild boars also fell by the pond.

When Duan Wuji and Tie Niu saw it, they immediately rushed over with big sticks. The wild boars drinking water were scared and fled in all directions. A wild boar is a big stick. The three wild boars didn't really die with the three arrows just now. After the stick was repaired, the three wild boars fell to the ground and died.

Cao Baobao rushed over, looked at the wild boars on the ground and said: "These three wild boars are not very big, they probably weigh more than 200 catties! However, taking them back can improve life!"

Don't you guys hurry over here!
What are you still doing there in a daze, quickly put the three wild boars on the horses, and we will retreat immediately! "

The soldiers brought the horses over, lifted the three wild boars onto their backs, and rode back to the city.

Tieniu looked at the two of them and said: "You see they are all gone, why don't the three of us go back to the city too!

How can I just waste my time here! "

The three of them packed up, mounted their horses, and chased after the soldiers.
