The old hunter urged, "Little guy, if you want to see it, hurry up. I estimate that there's still more than an hour before the tiger returns to its den. By then, I'll have to send this little tiger back to its den."
"Okay, grandpa, put the tiger down and let me have a good look!" Wang Wanfei made up his mind, "I want to draw a picture of a tiger!"
"Not bad, not bad, child, you will definitely become a great painter in our Ping Xi City!"
Hearing this, the old hunter finally relaxed. He put the little tiger down and sat at the side to smoke his pipe.
The little tiger was much bigger than a cat, but smaller than a dog. It was furry and cute. Wang Wanfei played with the little tiger for a while, then took out a charcoal pencil and started to draw. The little tiger circled around Wang Wanfei while the old hunter watched with a smile.
Wang Wanfei's drawing skills were really good. He finished drawing in a moment. However, on the rough paper, the little tiger's charmingly naive look was vivid on the paper. Where was the imposing manner of an adult tiger?
Wang Wanfei looked at the tiger drawing and felt like crying.
"Child, didn't you draw very well?" The old hunter didn't know the whole story and asked with a smile, "Why are you unhappy?"
Wang Wanfei bit his lips, his little face was gloomy like the shadow of dusk. He then asked the old hunter tentatively, "Grandpa, can you tell me where the tiger's den is?
I really just want to see … "
Without waiting for Wang Wanfei to finish, the old hunter's face changed slightly and stood up. He knocked the pipe on the rock a few times and said unhappily, "Child, why do you have to go to the tiger's den?
Even I don't dare to go to the tiger's den. Today, if it wasn't for Miss Wang … "
At this point, the old hunter realized that he had misspoken and hurriedly shut his mouth. Wang Wanfei was also stunned and asked, "Grandpa, did you say Miss Wang?"
It was also at this moment that a gust of wind suddenly blew, and an unpleasant stench came from the foot of the mountain.
"Oh no!"
The old hunter saw the strong wind and immediately woke up. He jumped down from the rock and shouted, "Child, run, the tiger is coming … Ouch!!"
The old hunter did not expect the big tiger to come so early and follow its scent to this place. He knew better than Wang Bianfei how powerful the tigers in the mountains were. How could he not panic now?
As the saying goes, when one is in a hurry, one makes a mistake. The old hunter stepped on the edge of a rock and fell to the ground.
"Grandpa …" Wang Bianfei turned pale with fright and hurried over to support him. Although the old hunter was old, he was quite agile and immediately jumped up from the ground. However, when he stood on the ground, the old hunter's face was ghastly pale because he had sprained his ankle and it looked very serious. His ankle was visibly swollen.
"Run!" the old hunter pushed Wang Yifei and said, "I'm here, Dumb Insect won't chase you!"
"No!!"
Wang Bianfei panicked at first, but now he calmed down and said seriously, "Grandpa came for me, so how can I abandon Grandpa and run away?
Even if I die, I want to die in front of my grandfather! "
"Roar …" An angry tiger's roar shook the forest in the twilight. The birds were startled and flew away. The fierce wind rose again. The originally cheerful little tiger also raised its head and roared in a low voice.
"Run …" the old hunter saw that the situation was very urgent, so he immediately pulled Wang Bianfei and ran down the mountain.
The old hunter was running with a limp, and Wang Bianfei's legs were short, so the two of them couldn't run fast at all. When a huge tiger showed up from the hill, the two of them had only run a distance of several hundred feet.
Seeing the big tiger, the little tiger, who was chasing after the two of them, turned around and ran towards the big tiger.
The old hunter's face was pale. He grabbed Wang Bianfei's collar and ran even faster without caring about his injured leg. He hoped that the big tiger would see its child and stop chasing them.
Unfortunately, the old hunter miscalculated. The big tiger roared and jumped down from the hill. It ran towards the little tiger and caught it with its mouth. Then it continued to chase after the two of them.
"We're going to die!" that was the only thought in the old hunter's mind.
However, at that moment, the old hunter's eyes lit up. There was a crack in the mountain wall that was as tall as a person. He grabbed Wang Bianfei and ran towards it without hesitation.
Fortunately, the crack was just big enough for one person to enter. The inside of the crack was not too shallow either. It was about four feet wide. After the old hunter threw Wang Bianfei in, he squeezed in with his body sideways.
Just as the old hunter entered, the tiger pounced on the crack. It slammed its claws on the crack, and the sound of rocks breaking could be heard. It was as if the entire mountain wall was shaking.
The old hunter had never been so close to a tiger before. He was so scared that he sat on the ground and crawled into the crack.
However, before the old hunter could take more than a few steps, he hit the rock wall and Wang Bianfei. He could not take another step forward.
"Roar …" the tiger pounced on the crack and let out a loud roar. The stench from its bloody mouth really hit them in the face …
Then, the tiger stretched out its claws from the crack and tried to grab Wang Bianfei and the old hunter. The tiger's shining claws swayed in front of Wang Bianfei's eyes.
Different from the old hunter's panic, although Wang Bianfei's little face was also pale, his eyes were filled with surprise. He clenched his little hands tightly and stared at the angry tiger without blinking …
Seeing that someone actually dared to look at it, the tiger became even angrier. It crazily attacked the crack, leaving deep marks on the hard rock wall.
Fortunately, the tiger was not a demon and did not think of using its tail. Otherwise, the two of them would not have survived.
Xiao Hua naturally hid himself not far away. Wang Bianfei and the old hunter were not in any danger, so he did not have to do anything. He just watched quietly.
The big tiger roared for a whole meal. Seeing that it had no effect, it simply lay on the ground and guarded. The little tiger was also leisurely strolling by the side. At that moment, the sky was completely dark.
Inside the crack, Wang Bianfei's eyes were like stars. The tiger's madness just now was deeply imprinted in his mind. He stared at the tiger outside the crack, not daring to close his eyes, for fear that he would forget the tiger's anger.
However, a child was still a child after all, especially after being frightened. In less than an hour, his eyes slowly closed!
He had experienced too many things today, and only a peaceful sleep was the best place for him to go.
Wang Bianfei fell asleep, but the old hunter did not dare to sleep. He exercised his ankle while paying attention to the movement outside the crevice. However, the night wind was getting colder, and it was quiet outside. He could not hear the tiger's voice at all, so the old hunter gradually fell asleep.
When the sun rose and the light shone into the crack, the old hunter hurriedly opened his eyes. His feet were getting more and more swollen, and he could not touch the ground at all. However, he still leaned in front of the crack and secretly peeked outside …
"Roar …" An angry roar, followed by another black shadow. The old hunter was so scared that he hurriedly retreated. "Rip!" The tiger's claws tore the old hunter's lapel!
The furious tiger had actually waited for an entire night!
"What … What should we do?"
The old hunter sat on the ground, worried because his stomach was growling and his mouth was dry. If the tiger did not leave and stayed here for a day or two, even if they did not starve to death, they would die of thirst!
When the tiger roared, Wang Bianfei was also startled awake. He looked around and realized his situation. Looking at the old hunter's worried face, he thought for a while and said, "Grandpa, don't worry!
I have an idea. "
"You … What idea do you have?"
The old hunter looked at Wang Bianfei. He did not blame Wang Bianfei, but how could he not hate him in his heart?
However, Wang Bianfei said confidently, "Grandpa, please wait!"
As he spoke, Wang Bianfei took out a piece of straw paper and a charcoal pencil from the embroidered bag he carefully placed on the ground. He closed his eyes slightly, then waved the charcoal pencil and drew something on the straw paper.
The old hunter naturally did not believe Wang Bianfei. He did not look at him, but stared at the crack with his brows tightly knitted. No one knew what he was thinking.
After the time it took for a stick of incense to burn, Wang Bianfei stopped and put away the charcoal pencil. He looked at the drawing on the straw paper and was very satisfied.
However, when he raised the straw paper, he looked at the rock wall again. He thought for a while and said a few words to the old hunter.
"What?
You … You're saying that I'm holding this straw paper?
But you think that a tiger drawn on the straw paper can scare away a real tiger outside?
Are you sure? "The old hunter heard and said in disbelief.
Wang Bianfei smiled, "Grandpa, you can try. If it weren't for the fact that I'm short and can't be compared to a tiger, I would have tried it myself."
The old hunter looked at the lifelike tiger on the straw paper. Although he did not believe Wang Bianfei's words, his heart was moved. After thinking for a while, the old hunter raised the tiger drawing and slowly walked behind the crack.
"Roar …" As if it had heard the footsteps, the tiger pounced again. However, it was different this time. The tiger suddenly saw another tiger coming out from the crack. It was stunned at first and stared at the tiger drawing for a moment. Then, it growled a few times, grabbed the little tiger by the neck, curled its tail and ran away quickly …
The old hunter's hands and feet were trembling. His ears were pricked up and he did not dare to breathe loudly. He waited for a full meal before he carefully jumped out. Looking at the mountain path that was already calm, he looked at the tiger drawing in his hand. He could not believe what had just happened.
"Let's go, grandpa!"
Wang Bianfei took the tiger drawing from the old hunter's hand and carefully put it away. He looked down the mountain and said firmly.
The old hunter nodded. The old and the young cuddled together and slowly walked down the mountain!
The housekeeper at the foot of the mountain was now very anxious. He waited at the foot of the mountain until the sky turned dark, but Wang Bianfei did not come down. When he returned to the Wang family to report, he was reprimanded by the young lady of the Wang family and was forced to go up the mountain to search. However, who dared to go up the mountain when the sky turned dark?
He could only wait at the foot of the mountain with a few servants and wait until dawn to go up the mountain to search.
