Longevity starts from strengthening internal organs

Chapter 53
For the next few days, Zhao Ya has been wandering in the mountains and forests, looking for traces of alienated tigers and wild boars, but nothing has been found.

Zhao Ya had expected this.

After all, even among ordinary beasts, tigers and wild boars are considered absolute beasts, let alone alienated ones.

A powerful beast like this often has its own territory, and the mountains and forests with a radius of more than ten miles may belong to its sphere of influence.

Other strange beasts cannot enter casually.

This virtually increases the difficulty of searching.

But Zhao Ya was not discouraged, but went deeper and deeper.

Finally on this day, Zhao Ya made a discovery.

This is a dense mountain forest, and a stream runs through it, providing a precious water source for the animals.

Zhao Ya is the clue found beside the stream.

This is an adult elk with a strong body and sharp antlers. It is no match for ordinary beasts.

But at this time, its neck was bitten off, and its antlers were also snapped off by a huge force. Most of the flesh and blood on its body were gone, leaving only a skeleton full of scars.

According to these bite marks, Zhao Ya concluded that it should be done by an adult tiger.

And the time is not too long.

Because in this primeval forest, a corpse might not survive for three days before being devoured by countless predators.

And there is still some flesh and blood on the elk's body, so it will not exceed two days at most.

Zhao Ya was delighted, as long as he found the trace, it would be easy.

Zhao Ya walked back and forth along both sides of the stream a few times, and soon found some clues, and through these clues, finally found the beast path that tigers often walk.

To deal with tigers, especially alienated tigers, it is natural not to use ordinary traps.

After this period of research, Zhao Ya already had his own experience in arranging traps.

He combined rockfall traps with platform traps to create a large, deadly trap.

At the same time, Zhao Ya also put a specially made bait in the trap.

A fried pheasant.

For wild animals, the temptation of cooked food is unimaginable.

What's more, it was fried.

After arranging all this, Zhao Ya hid himself and waited quietly.

This time he didn't make him wait long.

Within half an hour, a gust of wind blew up in the forest.

The smell is overwhelming and disgusting.

Zhao Ya was overjoyed in his heart.

Because he knew that this was a sign before the tiger appeared.

The so-called cloud follows the dragon, and the tiger follows the wind. Before the tiger appears, there will always be a gust of wind.

This is also announcing to the mountains and forests its majesty as the king of beasts.

as predicted.

After the strong wind passed, a colorful tiger that looked like a bull slowly came out of the forest.

This is a tiger in its prime, its fur is shiny and shiny, and the muscle lines under the fur are faintly emerging while walking, full of explosive beauty.

Even Zhao Ya couldn't help being shocked.

What a beautiful... big cat!

At the same time, Tiger also noticed the deep-fried pheasant, and he couldn't help showing a hint of doubt in his eyes.

This tiger is obviously also alienated, so its IQ is not low.

But no matter how low the IQ is, it is still a beast with fur and horns, and it is difficult to resist the temptation of this bait.

It circled the bait a few times, as if wanting to check if there was an ambush around it. When it found that everything was normal, it jumped forward, intending to take the pheasant away.

But as soon as its front feet hit the ground, the trap was activated immediately, and several stones the size of water tanks fell from the sky, rushing towards the tiger and smashing them.

The tiger moved very fast, and when it saw the situation was not good, it turned around and wanted to run away, but this trap was specially designed for it, so how could it make it run away easily.

The wire sheath that had been arranged in advance jumped up suddenly, just binding its hind feet, making it impossible for it to break free for a while.

At the same time, Zhao Ya drew his bow and set an arrow, aimed at the tiger's eyes and shot.

With two swishes, the arrow hit the tiger's eyes.

The tiger let out a roar of pain, and with a slap of its front paw, it unexpectedly snapped off a big tree next to it that was as thick as the mouth of a bowl.

But Zhao Ya was not afraid, instead he raised his sword and rushed over.

No matter how fierce this tiger is, it cannot be the opponent of Zhao Ya who is holding a treasured sword.

So after a few encounters, it finally fell to the ground and became Zhao Ya's prey.

"call!"

Zhao Ya heaved a sigh of relief, first wiped off the blood on the Meteorite Knife, then took out the skinning knife and a special leather pouch, went to the tiger's body and began to skin it.

What he wanted was tiger bone marrow, but the tiger skin and blood were also good things. Although it was of no use to Zhao Ya, the medicine shops in the city kept buying these things at high prices.

So Zhao Ya specially asked Zui'er to sew this skin bag, and while peeling the skin, he used the skin bag to hold the blood that flowed out.

Soon, a complete tiger skin was peeled off, and the skin bag was filled with tiger blood.

Zhao Ya was about to cut up the flesh and take out the bone marrow.

At this moment, he turned around suddenly, holding the meteorite knife in his hand, and said to a certain forest with a face full of vigilance.

"My friend, since you're here, why don't you show up?"

Following the voice, there was a rustling sound in the grass, and then a man dressed as a hunter came out of it.

The man was about 50 years old, and his face was full of vicissitudes after years of traveling in the deep mountains, but his eyes were frighteningly bright.

He cupped his hands at Zhao Ya with a smile all over his face.

"This little brother is very skilled, and he can actually hunt and kill tigers by himself, which is really admirable."

Zhao Ya did not relax his vigilance at all because of the man's smile and compliment.

Because at the beginning, Niu Yuan said that this deep mountain and old forest is a real place outside the law, and he can't trust anyone easily.

Especially at this time, Zhao Ya had just killed a fierce tiger, and the benefits could be described as attractive.

"Whether I'm good or not has nothing to do with you. If you don't want to die here, leave quickly, otherwise don't blame me for being rude."

Zhao Ya said in a cold voice, his words were not polite.

Unexpectedly, the man didn't have the slightest intention of retreating, but walked forward with a smile on his face.

"Brother, you don't have to be so guarded. In fact, I really don't have any malicious intentions, it's just..."

A swishing arrow shot straight at the man's face, and the man dodged to the side in fright, dodging the arrow.

"Get lost!" Zhao Ya said coldly.

The man's complexion gradually turned cold, he spat hard, and then said in a cold voice: "Little bastard is quite vigilant, that's all, since you are so ungrateful, then don't blame me!"

Following the words, three more people walked out of the forest, all dressed as hunters, and all looked at Zhao Ya with unkind expressions.

The first man smiled at Zhao Ya.

"Boy, we have been watching this tiger for a long time, and we were about to make a move, but we didn't expect that you would take advantage of it. Nothing else, you leave this tiger now, and then you can get out."
