How could Cao Cao be here and still entangled with the tiger? Could it be that he and his men were hunting the tiger?
Then if you quickly join him, you will definitely be safe.
Although Wang Yue was killed, no one knew whether he had any accomplices, and Cao Zhang still had some concerns in his heart.
He immediately said to Li Jin: "It's my father who is hunting tigers. Let's go over and join them!"
The two of them rode a horse together and headed quickly towards the direction where the tiger's roar came from.
As the two got closer and closer to their goal, Cao Zhang gradually felt that something was wrong.
It was relatively quiet in the woods. There was no sound of horses neighing, and there was no sign of tigers and leopard riders or tiger warriors. However, they only heard the roar of tigers and Cao Cao's shouts.
Cao Zhang became more and more confused: How could Cao Cao be here alone and meet a tiger?
A terrible thought formed in Cao Zhang's mind. Did Cao Pi not only want to attack himself, but also directly kill his father?
Isn't Cao Cao's current situation very dangerous? !
Cao Zhang became nervous. The current situation must not let anything happen to Cao Cao!
His foundation has not yet been solidified, and the candidate for the heir apparent has not yet been determined. If he died now, Cao Pi would definitely inherit everything as the eldest son.
Now that he has no one to support him, he will definitely not be able to seize the position of heir apparent. Even if he leads some people from the Xiahou clan to launch a mutiny, it will only increase the civil strife and cause serious damage to his vitality.
If Yuan Shao, Yuan Shu, Lu Bu, Liu Biao and others take the opportunity to attack, it will be difficult to deal with it.
Thinking of this, Cao Zhang became anxious and shouted to Li Jin: "My father is in danger, go and save him!"
Li Jin received the order and immediately urged his horse hard and rushed forward.
The two of them kept rushing forward through the dense forest, and Cao Zhang looked forward anxiously.
Ouch!
Another tiger roar came, this time not far ahead.
Cao Zhang looked intently and clearly saw a tiger lying on the rocks not far ahead.
It's just that this tiger is not big and is not yet mature. A tiger tail keeps twisting and slapping the ground, a bloody mouth opens wide, and it keeps letting out a low roar.
Then Cao Zhang saw a carved feather arrow stuck in the left eye of the young tiger. Blood was constantly flowing out of the eye. It was obviously injured!
The young tiger stared with a strange eye, tilting his head constantly to stare at a person not far in front of him.
The man hung a sword on his waist, held a hard bow, and nocked an arrow with both hands. The tip of the arrow was pointed in the direction of the tiger and was ready to go. It was Cao Cao.
Cao Zhang was very surprised when he saw Cao Cao confronting the young tiger. He could not imagine how Cao Cao could face such a young tiger alone...
Cao Cao followed the leopard all the way to the depths of the jungle, and was completely separated from the others. He could only dismount and rest alone, thinking that he would wait for himself and Zhu Huang Feidian to recover before slowly finding their way back.
Unexpectedly, he went in the wrong direction, walking further and further in the dense forest, going further and further off the track.
At this moment, a tiger roar came from the woods ahead, and a young tiger sprang out.
After all, Cao Cao had been in the army for many years. Although he was a little panicked when he suddenly encountered a tiger, he quickly calmed down. Especially when he saw clearly that the tiger was very small, he immediately had the idea of shooting it.
Cao Cao quickly took off his bow and arrow and shot an arrow at the young tiger.
The young tiger quickly dodged and although he escaped the fatal blow, he was still shot in the left eye and was seriously injured.
After being hit by the arrow, the young tiger became furious and rushed towards Cao Cao.
Although Cao Cao was not afraid of the young tiger, Huang Feidian under him was so frightened that his hooves were paralyzed.
Cao Cao had no choice but to dismount his horse and dodge on foot through the trees in the forest. He fired arrows from time to time to scare the young tiger and fight with it.
After all, the young tiger was hit by an arrow and his eyesight was somewhat affected. This gave Cao Cao a chance to wander, and he has been holding on until now.
Of course, Cao Zhang didn't know Cao Cao's intention to capture the tiger. He thought he was in danger, so he immediately dismounted and shouted: "Father!"
Cao Cao was confronting Young Tiger when he suddenly heard someone shouting. He looked over with his peripheral vision and saw that it was Cao Zhang who appeared, feeling secretly happy.
He knew that Cao Zhang was very brave and with his help, it would be easier to capture the young tiger.
Cao Cao nervously pointed at the young tiger in front of him with his bow and arrow, and then greeted excitedly: "Ziwen, you're just in time, come and help me capture this tiger, it's prey for the two of us!"
"Okay!" Cao Zhang agreed loudly.
Originally, he wanted to keep a low profile, not show off during this hunt, and try to maintain a superficial balance.
But Cao Pi actually sent a killer of Wang Yue's level to assassinate him. This shows that no matter what he does, the other party will not stop. The two have become irreconcilable!
In this case, there is no need for me to keep a low profile, so let’s face it head-on!
Now there is only Cao Cao. If you help him catch the tiger, you can further curry favor and kill two birds with one stone!
Cao Zhang flew off his horse. Even though he had just experienced a life-and-death fight with Wang Yue, Cao Zhang felt that capturing and killing such a young tiger would not be a problem, not to mention the help of Li Jin.
Li Jin also immediately dismounted, took off the bow and arrow and handed it to Cao Zhang's hand.
Cao Zhang took the bow and arrow, quietly opened it, and aimed at the young tiger from a distance.
Although the young tiger's left eye was hit by an arrow, through the conversation between Cao Cao and Cao Zhang, he also sensed the arrival of a new "enemy" and became even more nervous. He kept turning his head, listening to the surrounding movements, and using his right eye Trying hard to find the location of Cao Cao and Cao Zhang.
Cao Zhang walked slowly to Cao Cao's side, and Li Jin also followed to protect Cao Cao.
Cao Zhang made sure that Cao Cao was safe, and then asked: "Father, why are you here alone?"
"Don't mention it. I originally saw a leopard and wanted to shoot it. I followed it and got separated from the others. When I got here, I lost the leopard, but I met this guy."
"This is better. Others are not so lucky to shoot a tiger!" Cao Cao looked very excited and responded to Cao Zhang.
"Now that it is injured, as long as it is shot again, it will definitely not be able to run away. Ziwen, do it quickly!" Cao Cao urged Cao Zhang.
Cao Zhang nodded in agreement, raised the bow and arrow in his hand, and pointed the arrow tip at the young tiger...
"Ouch!"
The young tiger roared, and despite its small size, it still felt powerful.
Its one eye stared closely at Cao and his son and Li Jin beside them.
After all, it was Cao Cao's arrow that made him lose his left eye. When he saw the bow and arrow in Cao Zhang's hand, he showed obvious restlessness.
Cao Zhang adjusted the angle and aimed the tip of the arrow at the cub's head, preparing to kill it with one arrow!
Unexpectedly, at the moment when Cao Zhang was about to release the arrow, the young tiger suddenly jumped to the side, turned around and ran away towards the dense forest behind him.
It felt threatened by death and did not want to confront Cao and his son anymore, so it chose to escape...
Of course, Cao Zhang would not let it go like this and quickly fired the arrow.
The arrow shot through the air, but in the end it was a step too slow. It only hit the cub's hind leg, but it failed to kill him directly.
The young tiger let out a miserable howl again, but continued to run forward, dragging its injured leg.
Naturally, Cao Cao would not watch it escape, and immediately shouted: "Where to run!?"
Cao Cao, holding a bow and arrow, quickly chased after him...
Seeing Cao Cao chasing after him, Cao Zhang and Li Jin naturally would not fall behind, and each pursued them with weapons...
