Chapter 21 21 Taming the Tiger

Chapter 21 21. Taming the Tiger

Five days later.

Li Yuan gradually adapted to this hard life of "returning home at midnight and leaving home at dawn".

But perhaps because he and Sister Yan spent less time together, they became more inseparable.

Lady Yan pestered him tirelessly and talked to him in bed.

"I heard that the state government sent troops to encircle and suppress the Red Lotus Bandits, but the county magistrate of our Shanbao County is still watching the situation.

In this way, Uncle Wang and the others are still safe.

Except that they can't go home and need to train in the barracks, everything else is normal.

Aunt Wang was so happy when she heard the news today, and she talked to me for a long time.

If you had known this earlier, you wouldn't have hidden in the mountains."

Li Yuan shook his head and said, "Who can know the future situation?

It's still a question whether the government can suppress the Red Lotus Bandits, and it's still a question whether the county soldiers will go to the battlefield, and what the county magistrate thinks.

Swords and guns have no eyes. Once you enter the battlefield, your life is not your own.

It's not wrong for me to hide in the mountains in advance."

Mrs. Yan sighed and said, "That's right. It's just that you go back and forth so secretly every day, which is hard and dangerous."

Li Yuan gently hugged her and said, "For Sister Yan, I'm not tired at all."

Mrs. Yan was stunned for a moment, clenched her fist and punched his chest, and said in a delicate voice, "Hate."

While saying "hate", her eyes were full of joy.

After the joy, there was worry.

Madam Yan said again: "How about you get hurt a little, then run back from the mountain, and say you got lost after being chased by a wild beast, and then stay at home to recover after escaping death. In this way, you don't have to go to the barracks."

"The situation is unclear."

Li Yuan shook his head, and suddenly said: "If I find a good place in the mountains, are you willing to go with me to live in seclusion?"

Madam Yan was stunned, silent for a while, and gently drew circles on his body with her fingers, sighing softly: "I am your wife, where you go, I go."

As the two chatted, Li Yuan calculated that it was almost time, so he hurriedly put on his clothes and rushed back to the mountain.

In the mountains, he lit a bonfire and leaned against the wall of the cave to continue to catch up on his sleep.

The mountains here are deep, and unless you climb to the vicinity of the second mountain, it is difficult to find the faint green smoke of the bonfire.

The exploration work was temporarily stopped because he had limited walking speed and could not walk too far in Sanchong Mountain, so he stopped temporarily.

"Or, talk to Sister Yan in two days.

I will not come back at night for one or two days.

In this way, I can explore deeper."

At noon, Li Yuan decided to change his taste.

He did not eat fish, but hunted a hare and a pheasant.

He skillfully used a knife to cut open the belly, skinned and dehaired, washed it in the stream beside, and then roasted the whole thing on the fire.

The fat in the fat meat "sizzled" and dripped into the campfire, causing the flames to rise from time to time, up and down.

At this time, there was a sound of rapid approaching in the distance.

The trees rustled and were quickly pushed away by the incoming object.

Li Yuan did not look up, he knew that the tiger was coming again.

It came every day these days.

At the beginning, the two sides were still confronting each other.

But slowly, there was a boundary.

One man and one tiger, each guarding their own territory, actually lived in peace.

Animals have very sensitive intuition, especially this kind of tiger that lives in the mountains and forests.

Perhaps it felt a strong breath from Li Yuan, so it did not attack.

And every time it came, Li Yuan would throw some food to it, which was tastier than what it hunted, so it came often.

Sure enough, after a while, the tiger with hanging eyes and white forehead came over on tiptoe.

The long grass was divided into two parts, and a dangerous outline gradually appeared in the shadow of the trees.

The tiger showed its body, but this time, it did not lie down, but tried to get closer to Li Yuan.

But it had only taken two steps forward, and Li Yuan suddenly jumped up, like a kerosene explosion, "bang" his feet stomped heavily on the ground!

He grabbed the longbow, his face was ferocious, a terrifying murderous aura emanated, and his eyes were staring at the tiger like lightning.

This murderous aura is not mysterious, one is strength, and the other is killing.

Killing too many lives, naturally, one will be indifferent to life, thinking that life and death is just a matter of a knife, and that the body is just meat for food.

Li Yuan didn't kill much after crossing over, but before crossing over, he was a butcher, and he handled a lot of pigs every day.

The tiger felt the sudden threat, and its body stagnated, and it roared forward.

Li Yuan was not to be outdone, and took a step forward aggressively.

The tiger was about to charge, but Li Yuan pulled the bow directly.

The bowstring was tightened, making a "chi chi chi" sound, and the dangerous breath was released at the same time.

The tiger stopped, and after a few seconds of confrontation, it suddenly lay down, and then slowly retreated a few steps, shrinking back to the original boundary between the man and the tiger.

Li Yuan then slowly put down the bow, dissipated the breath, and returned to the campfire to continue grilling meat.

He glanced at the "5~8" next to the tiger, and then at the "9~10" on his side.

He grabbed the hatchet, and the value became "10~11", and grabbed the earth bow, and the value became "24~25".

Either one is stronger than the tiger, which is why he dared to be so calm and fierce.

Otherwise, he would have escaped long ago.

This feeling is still quite magical.

It was like he got lost in a wildlife park and met a tiger. He should have been trembling, but he was stronger than the tiger, and the tiger was scared by him and dared not approach.

At this moment, what he was doing was trying to "tame the tiger".

Before the time travel, this was definitely unreliable, but it might not be the case in this world.

Li Yuan still remembered that when Qian San, Xiong Ge, Zhang Nuli, and Zhang Mazi pulled the dog, their overall strength would increase, which showed that in this world, fierce beasts could also become part of their strength.

Anyway, he was idle anyway, and since the tiger couldn't hurt him, he had time to play with the tiger slowly.

Although there was no way to tame a tiger in the original owner's memory, there was a way to tame a dog.

In short, one is to make the dog sensitive to certain smells, such as hares, pheasants, roe deer, etc. After being sensitive, the dog will track these prey when entering the forest;

Second, let the dog know what things will be good and what things will be bad, so that the dog will listen to you, and you can even issue commands to the dog through some specific actions.

How to make a dog sensitive to certain smells is actually very simple, just let the dog eat meat, hare meat, pheasant meat, roe deer meat.

After the dog has eaten these meats, it knows that they are delicious. When it goes up the mountain again, it will automatically track them when it smells these smells, and even go up to bite them.

But this is definitely not applicable to tigers.

What has the tiger in the mountain not eaten?

Even humans, I am afraid they have eaten them.

This is simply to track and eat anything with meat, no matter what it is.

Therefore, Li Yuan’s idea is to tame the tiger through the second method.

He did not have much hope for success, mainly to find something to do so that the daytime life would not be long and boring.

Chi Chi Chi.

At this time, a pheasant and a hare have been roasted.

Li Yuan took out a small paper bag from his arms, pinched a pinch of salt from it, sprinkled it on the two roasted foods, and sniffed it.

It was a little fishy, ​​but it was fragrant! !

Not far away, the tiger that was crouching here looked over here from time to time.

When Li Yuan grabbed the roasted rabbit, the tiger suddenly stood up and tried to cross the border to grab the food.

As soon as it moved, Li Yuan stood up suddenly, grabbed the bow in his left hand, and faced the tiger from a distance, with a fierce aura.

The tiger roared.

Li Yuan was unmoved.

The two sides confronted each other for a while, and the tiger crouched down again.

After several times, even if Li Yuan started to eat the roasted rabbit, the tiger still only licked its tongue but did not cross the border.

And at this moment, Li Yuan threw the roasted rabbit that he had eaten two bites of far away.

The tiger poked its head out like lightning, grabbed the roasted rabbit and started eating it.

After eating, the tiger stared at the roasted pheasant in Li Yuan's hand again.

But Li Yuan ate the roasted pheasant in front of it.

During this period, the tiger wanted to cross the border again.

But as soon as it moved, Li Yuan bent his bow and drew his arrow.

Whenever the "click" sound of the bow was heard, the tiger stopped immediately.

After a few times, the tiger seemed to decide to try again. It began to take a detour and try from a different angle.

At this moment, the earthen bow in Li Yuan's hand exploded with a bang.

Bang!

In the sharp whimper of the air, a cold light flashed!

Where the arrow pointed, the trunk of the tree was as fragile as mud and was broken by a poke.

Bang!

The arrow penetrated the tree.

The tiger suddenly stopped, looked at the sharp arrow on the tree, turned around and ran away.
