Daming: I am the most powerful emperor grandson, please abdicate the throne

Chapter 242 Seeing the Big Tiger Again
  Zhu Xuan quickly separated from those people.

"Your Highness, do you want to check them?"

Yan Guan stepped forward and asked.

Zhu Xuan shook his head and said: "No, it's probably just a coincidence, but you still have to stay vigilant and keep hunting!"

"it is good!"

Yan Guan arranged some royal guards to guard the Cen family chieftain in the rear.

Zhu Xuan led the team and quickly entered the woods.

The Jin Yiwei who went to drive away the prey quickly drove out some of the small animals.

Zhu Xuan originally wanted to use a gun to kill him, but he felt that doing so would not win souls, so he asked for bows and arrows, shot a few small animals, and gave the rest to Yan Guan and the others to kill. Soon enough, he killed more than a thousand of them. After eating the prey, he happily dragged the prey back to prepare for extra meals tonight.

Return to the foot of the mountain, where the two sides faced off just now.

Just then, they heard a roaring sound.

Zhu Xuan still remembered clearly that it was the roar of tigers. When he was hunting in the park, he heard the roar of two big tigers like this.

What appears here must be a wild tiger.

However, when he first attacked Annan, Zhu Xuan also saw wild tigers that were so hungry that they were killed by soldiers from the Shenji Battalion. With so many rifles there, they were not stressed at all.

"Your Highness, there is a tiger here."

Hou Xian exclaimed, still ready to slide and shovel.

The gunmen and the imperial guards also became nervous, maybe they were going to fight the tiger again.

It is normal for tigers to exist in the deep mountains and old forests of the Southwest.

"Let's get out of here first and go back to camp to get ready."

Zhu Xuan did not directly challenge the tigers.

But the tigers in the jungle pose a certain threat to them and they have to go back and defend themselves.

Just when they were about to walk out, the Jin Yiwei who was sent by Yan Guan to guard against the chieftains came back and said: "Your Highness, those chieftains were attacked by tigers."

Zhu Xuan: "..."

It turned out that the tiger made such a big noise because they encountered it. They wanted to kill the tiger, but they were attacked by it.

"Your Highness, do you want to save someone?"

Yan Guan asked.

Zhu Xuan thought about it for a while and said, "Save it, you guys can follow me and take a look."

Li Niu shouted: "Come two hundred people, come out with me, and the others will protect His Highness."

The gunmen from the Shenji Camp were taken away by him, and Yan Guan also took some of the Jinyi Guards out. As for Hou Xian, he still had to be prepared to slide the shovel and break the tiger's belly with a knife at any time. However, Zhu Xuan was not idle and also followed Go up.

After walking for a while and turning around a mountain col, Zhu Xuan finally came to the place where they were hunting tigers.

Only two adult tigers were seen lying on the ground, and three big tigers were left, roaring, staring fiercely at Cen Lei and the Cen family chieftains, and the tigers made violent and angry sounds in their throats.

The chieftain didn't have enough experience in dealing with tigers.

Plus they seemed to have provoked Tiger's whole family.

Although they killed two tigers, the tigers' remaining relatives, brothers and children all ran out to take revenge, chasing and biting them.

Almost all of Cen's slaves were dead, and the remaining ones were trembling.

The two young men were hiding behind the housekeeper Cen Lei. Their legs were weak. They wanted to run but couldn't because three tigers surrounded them in a triangle and had no intention of letting them go.

On the contrary, the little girl, who was not very old but had a heroic feeling, drew her small bow and prepared to shoot the tiger.

The housekeeper Cen Lei is so panicked now that he doesn't even have the courage of the little girl.

The remaining slaves, plus a few of them, were no match for the tiger. At this moment, one of the tigers suddenly jumped up and attacked, but at the next moment...

boom!
  A gunshot rang out.

The tiger, who was about to jump up, was beaten like a hornet's nest. He roared in pain, fell to the ground, struggled feebly, and finally died.

This sudden scene startled Cen Lei and the others slightly. They followed the sound of gunshots and saw that Zhu Xuan and the others were coming, but he shouted: "Be careful!"

The other two tigers also noticed this, gave up on Cen Lei and others, and pounced on Li Niu and others.

But as soon as he pounced, Li Niu ordered to shoot.

Another burst of gunfire echoed.

The two big tigers were also beaten into a hornet's nest, fell in a pool of blood, let out a mournful cry, and then nothing happened.

Cen Lei and others were shocked.

These musket-like weapons can kill tigers so easily, but how powerful are they?
  However, Cen Lei quickly stepped forward, bowed his hands and said, "Thank you, Master, for saving your life."

Zhu Xuan said: "You're welcome. It's fate that we met here. It's just a matter of effort."

"Should be!"

Cen Lei added: "Is the young master going to Jingxi County tomorrow? If so, we, the Cen family, would like to invite the young master back as a guest to express our gratitude."

Zhu Xuan thought about the route back for a while and said, "I should be passing by, but are you going back now?"

Cen Lei looked at the sky. At this time, night was falling. The soldiers of the Shenji Battalion had already lit torches and said, "It's getting late. It's not appropriate to go back now. We also have a camp nearby, but many of our people died. Can we stay close to your place and spend the night together? I'm afraid there will be other wild beasts at night and I won't be able to deal with them."

After a pause, he added: "We are well rewarded!"

Zhu Xuan said: "There is no need for heavy rewards. If you think we are reliable, come together!"

As he spoke, he pointed in the direction of their camp and led the team back first.

"Don't you want those tigers anymore?"

the little girl asked softly.

Zhu Xuan had eaten tiger meat and found it a bit unpalatable, but tiger bones were a good thing and could replenish the emperor's body. He said, "Yan Guan, take one back with you and you can handle the rest."

There are not many people in Cen's group now, so they can't take away five tigers. They also only dragged away one carcass. The rest are left here to feed other beasts together with the beast carcasses.

Back at the camp, Zhu Xuan asked people to deal with the small animals.

If you like to eat tiger meat, you can cut open the tiger, cut the meat and roast it, leaving the tiger bones.

After a while.

Cen Lei finally brought people over, and they were a little surprised when they saw Zhu Xuan's camp.

This is definitely a military camp, a very standard marching layout.

The defensive soldiers were neat and orderly and very vigilant. As soon as they saw them approaching, someone raised their gun. If Zhu Xuan hadn't said they all knew each other, those soldiers would probably have fired.

"It's not convenient for you to come in inside the camp."

Zhu Xuan added: "You can only camp outside and rest for one night."

Cen Lei said gratefully: "Thank you sir, we also understand the rules."

He doesn't force anything.

The two men and the little girl looked at Zhu Xuan curiously.

Who is this child?
  It can be protected by so many elite soldiers and has very powerful muskets.

Chieftain Cen's family also had muskets, but compared to Zhu Xuan's, they were just toys.
