Chapter 164 Tigers Swooping for Food
"Don't talk about it, don't talk about your son." Jin guard wanted to interrupt him, not wanting to see him in such pain.
Meng Nan shook his head with a wry smile, "I'm fine." This is the first time he has spoken about this painful past since he was seven years old.
It was a past event that he didn't even dare to think about.
He thought that he would never be able to speak to anyone in his life, but he didn't expect that it was not as difficult as he imagined when he said it today.
"If I didn't run back then, what would have happened if I didn't run? Will my eldest brother survive?"
Bai Zhi held Meng Nan's trembling hand, her clear eyes filled with distress, "Brother Meng, it's not your fault, such a tragedy happened, it's just an accident, it has nothing to do with you, you don't have to worry about it. Responsibility - If I were your eldest brother, I would have made the same choice. If it were you, you would be the same. It is human nature for a brother to protect his younger brother. It is also human nature to choose to escape when afraid. Besides, you were only seven years old then."
Yeah? Is it really human nature to be afraid and choose to run away? Because of his young age, should he run away even if he should?
His parents also told him that, and he always used this reason to comfort himself.
But until today, until just now, he learned that when Hu Feng faced the attack of the tiger, he did not retreat half a step, and bravely chose to confront the tiger. Even the weak Bai Zhi did not retreat, and used her own weak strength to assist. Hu Feng.
So, this is not a human instinct at all, it is a coward's instinct at all, he is a coward, a coward by nature.
"Let's go!" Seeing that his mood was still very low, Bai Zhi didn't know how to persuade him. Some things could not be explained clearly in a sentence or two, nor could they be understood in a day or two.
The golden guard said, "Why is Hu Feng gone? I'll go look for him in front." The golden guard ran away in three steps.
Bai Zhi asked Meng Nan, "Are you tired? Why don't I come back for a while."
Meng Nan shook his head: "I'm not tired, I'm a man. How can you let a little girl do this kind of work?"
She nodded and stopped talking. The atmosphere became very depressed for a while. Just as she was trying to say something to ease the atmosphere, there was a sudden crackling sound of branches being stepped on, and the sound of a beast coming from the throat. Muffled growl.
The two turned their heads and saw the white-fronted tiger that escaped just now rushing towards them.
God - this guy actually came back.
Or, it didn't run far at all, waiting for them to be alone.
Just like in the animal world she has seen, tigers can always lurk near their prey in order to hunt, waiting for the best opportunity to hit them with one blow.
Meng Nan seemed to be stunned. He stood in a daze and couldn't move. Bai Zhi pulled the purple mantle from his shoulders, pulled his hand and ran: "What are you doing, run!"
Only then did Meng Nan react, and he hurriedly followed Bai Zhi, but unfortunately, before he ran a few steps, his foot hooked out a branch, and he threw himself forward, and he pulled Bai Zhi to the ground with him.
This fall just gave the hanging eye tiger a chance to kill it. It roared wildly, and with the excitement of capturing its prey and the joy of revenge, it fiercely rushed towards the two of them.
Dang Jinghu was injured before, and his strength was unstoppable. At this time, he pounced on them, not as brave as before. Bai Zhi held Meng Nan tightly and pulled Meng Nan to his side.
