Traveling through ancient times: The rough man’s husband wants to post stickers

Chapter 17 Don't be afraid

Not to mention tigers, even the southern cockroach Qin Yao would tremble three times when he saw her.

At this moment, she was so frightened that her whole body was frozen, and her body could not react at all. She only felt her head buzzing.

"Yaoyao!"

Qin Yao heard Chu Cheng's eager voice and let out a cry, her legs were so weak that she fell to the ground.

Seeing that the tiger was about to open its bloody mouth towards her, Qin Yao grabbed the wooden stick that fell next to her and smashed it towards the tiger.

There was fire on the wooden stick, and the tiger was burned so hard that he howled and took a few steps back.

But now that there were two pieces of food in front of him, it was impossible for it to walk away. The tiger started to attack Qin Yao and Chu Cheng again.

Chu Cheng went out to hunt, carrying a sharp weapon made of stone. Qin Yao didn't have any, so she used fire. As soon as the tiger came close, she would hit it with fire.

The tiger bared its teeth and paved the ground with its forelimbs, apparently also waiting for an opportunity.

Although there are many trees nearby, tigers can climb trees. Even if Qin Yao and the others climb the trees, it will not help.

Chu Cheng's black eyes darkened greatly. Just when Qin Yao attacked the tiger with fire, he rushed to the side, picked up a sharp weapon and stabbed the tiger's body when it was not prepared.

Chu Cheng moved very quickly, and with great strength, the tiger struggled for two times and then stopped moving.

Chu Cheng sat on the ground and gasped for air.

Qin Yao ran over quickly, "Are you okay?"

It was really dangerous just now. If Chu Cheng started a little later and was discovered by the tiger, they would be the ones who died under the tiger's claws.

Chu Cheng didn't speak, but looked at her, with a pair of black eyes that seemed to contain something strange. Just when Qin Yao opened her mouth to ask something, he hugged her, and his voice had a tone that Qin Yao had never heard before. Heard the trembling, "Are you okay?"

Qin Yao seemed to feel that something strange was about to pop out of her heart, and she danced extremely happily.

She retracted her injured palm and shook her head, "It's okay."

Chu Cheng's trembling body calmed down slightly after hearing these words, but he still used the moonlight to carefully examine Qin Yao's body.

Not only his palms, but also his legs were scratched.

"It's nothing."

Falling to the ground and bumping into each other were inevitable, but Qin Yao thought it was normal.

But Chu Cheng felt extremely distressed.

The injury to her was like the injury to himself.

Chu Cheng's face was not very good, and he stood up to deal with the tiger. As soon as he turned his back, Qin Yao saw three long scratches on his back.

"Chu Cheng, you..."

Those three scratches were obviously from the tiger when he was fighting with him just now. They were bloody and bloody, and Qin Yao felt pain just looking at them.

"You...you're hurt!"

Chu Cheng looked back at his back and said calmly: "It's nothing."

Replied Qin Yao with Qin Yao's words.

She immediately became angry, "How can this be nothing?!"

The wound was bigger than hers, and she could even see the flesh inside.

Is this nothing? !

This kind of injury was common for Chu Cheng. He had rough skin and thick flesh, so he didn't feel much pain. On the contrary, when he saw Qin Yao crying, he actually felt that his heart hurt more than his body.

"Don't cry, it's nothing."

Qin Yao wiped away her tears with red eyes, "Did you get caught by the tiger trying to save me when he rushed towards me just now?"

Chu Cheng was silent, he wanted to say no, but Qin Yao's bright eyes looked at him, and he couldn't say anything to lie to her.

But he didn't want to make her sad.

Can only be silent. "Uuuuuuuuah...I knew it was all my fault. If only I had reacted faster!"

Qin Yao suddenly blamed herself.

Chu Cheng stretched out his hand and wiped away the tears on her face, "Why are you crying? Anyone who encounters this kind of thing will be frightened, let alone you looking at it!"

"Then why weren't you frightened?"

Chu Cheng: "..."

"The more you encounter them, the less you will be afraid. I was just like you when I saw a tiger for the first time."

In order to make Qin Yao feel better, Chu Cheng told her about how he was so scared that his legs were weak when he first encountered a tiger to distract her.

"So you got the tiger skin in the cave?"

Chu Cheng nodded, and even a somewhat proud expression appeared on his face, as if he was waiting for Qin Yao to praise him.

Qin Yao was not stingy either, "You are really amazing!"

He was only eleven or twelve years old when he killed the tiger, which shows that he was already very brave at that time.

Qin Yao's eyes couldn't help but change a little when she looked at Chu Cheng.

Chu Cheng's ears were slightly red after being praised, and his eyes fell on Qin Yao's full and red lips. He swallowed and turned his head away, "Let's deal with that tiger first."

Qin Yao nodded. The two of them were busy until dawn. With the tiger as food, they did not need to hunt other animals.

Before leaving here, they checked several traps they had made earlier.

As soon as they approached one of them, they heard a small and weak sound coming from inside. The two of them looked together and saw that it turned out to be a wild boar inside.

However, this wild boar must have just been weaned and is not very big. It was pierced through the abdomen by a sharp wooden stick placed in the middle and was already dying.

Chu Cheng jumped down and pulled out the wild boar. It howled and died completely.

"It was probably chased here by a tiger, and then accidentally fell into a trap. The tiger didn't find its trace, but it found us because of the fire."

Chu Cheng carried the wild boar on his shoulders together, and the two of them walked back.

After returning to the tribe, it was completely dark.

Chu Cheng knew that Qin Yao loved to be clean, so he went back to take a shower as soon as she came back. After she finished taking a shower, Chu Cheng went to the wooden house to find her and asked her to go to the cave to eat.

At this time, Qin Yao couldn't make a fire by herself, so she followed Chu Cheng to the cave and wanted to ask him something by the way.

"It's the third day soon. Should we hand over the tiger tomorrow?"

Chu Cheng put another piece of meat for Qin Yao, "No, we only deal with wild boar."

"This……"

Qin Yao was suddenly surprised.

Didn’t the chief say that he would hand over the captured animals as big as wild boars and goats?
This wild boar is just a cub and does not meet the size requirement. Instead, it is the tiger, which is bigger than the wild boar.

What if the wild boar is not used in exchange and other tribes do not give salt?
Seemingly sensing Qin Yao's doubts, Chu Cheng smiled and said, "We bought the tiger with our lives, why should we give it to others?"

Chu Cheng was reluctant to part with such a good thing, and he wanted to leave it to Qin Yao.

When winter comes, a piece of tiger skin is put under her and covered with another piece on top, so that she won't be cold in the winter.

Chu Cheng thought very well. Those people wanted tigers, but he would not give them to them. If they had the ability, he would let them catch them themselves.

"But……"

Qin Yao is still a little worried.

"Don't be afraid."

With that said, Chu Cheng took out something from the side and put it in front of Qin Yao, and said to her: "Open it and see what's inside?"

Qin Yao glanced at him and then at the stone jar before opening it with her hands.
