"What a big tiger!"
"yes……"
"It's bigger than others!"
"yes……"
"Is this okay..."
"this is not OK."
Song You looked down at the giant tiger.
Empress Sanhua was standing nearby.
I think this is the tiger in the mouth of the mountain people. Compared with this giant tiger, both figures look very small.
A tiger that is bigger than an ox. If you poke it with a sword in the wrong place, one side may reach the hilt of the sword, but the other side has not yet penetrated. Its claws and claws are longer than a dagger and wider than an axe. It is a highly skilled martial artist. The Jianghu people may be able to slay demons and ghosts, but this tiger is definitely not something ordinary mortals in the Jianghu can fight against.
However, right now, the giant tiger's body was covered with numerous sword wounds, large and small, too many to count.
It's hard to imagine how much effort the swordsman had to put in to kill it. From the tiger's den to here, the whole journey was a mess. The battle was so fierce, and he suffered multiple injuries after killing it.
Judging by the time, he should have stayed in the mountain for several days.
However, he still killed him without flinching.
Da Xia Shu is capable, and he lived up to what he said to the city guards at the gate of the city: "When he leaves, the tiger demon will be eliminated."
I just thought that after defeating the tiger, he was also seriously injured, so he had no energy left to deal with other tiger monsters and tigers in the mountain, and he did not return to Jinhe County to inform the officials and people in the city, only dragging his seriously injured body. After leaving here, maybe he went back to Wushan, or maybe he went to Jiyan County.
At the same time, Song You could also notice that this giant tiger no longer existed, both in soul and aura.
It should be that after being killed by the swordsman, the power of thunder on the sword immediately wiped out these. Even if it was not completely wiped out, it slowly wore away over time, and naturally it could no longer be collected into the flag.
It can only be said that he learned the art of swordsmanship from the sky thunder.
"well……"
Although the tiger is known as a tiger, its character is too cruel and does not have the bearing of a king. It is said that if a tiger monster wants to become a real tiger, close to a mountain god-like existence, and grow infinitely, it must first overcome the cruelty and violence in its nature. Just fine. Otherwise, they will be too self-centered and murderous. Even if they become spiritual by chance, they will be nothing more than a demon king, and it will be difficult for them to become a great person.
This is why there are very few incredible tiger monsters.
The balance and beauty of the world are also here.
Except for humans, the more powerful the creatures and the more advanced the creatures, the fewer they will be, and the fewer will become spiritual beings.
Before the tiger becomes a spirit, it can kill mountain monsters. Once it becomes a spirit, it will be even more amazing. However, the number of tigers is smaller. Normally, there can only be one mountain tiger in a large mountain forest, and the number is far less than that of weaker creatures. Naturally, there are far fewer tigers that have become spirits than cows, sheep, rats, and demons. Secondly, tigers Demons are violent by nature, and if they do not change after becoming spirits, it will be difficult for them to live long in a peaceful and prosperous world.
Song You couldn't help but think of the tiger demon that was about to become a spirit when he first came down the mountain and entered Xuzhou a few years ago.
I don’t know what it is like now and what destiny it has.
After looking at it for a long time, the Taoist finally looked back.
The little girl stood nearby and looked up at him: "Then can we still find Shu?"
The Taoist also had a bit of regret on his face.
"I'm afraid I missed it."
"missed……"
"yes."
"Then what do we do now?"
"Isn't Sanhua Empress going to get rid of the tiger?"
"Yes..." the little girl nodded, then raised her head and asked, "What about after getting rid of the tiger?"
"It's time to go down to the city and inform the officials and people that the evil tiger in the mountain has been eliminated. The one who eliminated the tiger is a swordsman named Shu Yifan." Song You paused and looked down at her, "And besides the tiger, The other tiger monsters and evil tigers are a cat Taoist named Sanhua Empress."
"Cat Taoist!"
"It is also."
"Miss Sanhua has become a cat Taoist!"
"Exactly."
"And where to go?"
"Leave Guangzhou in the west and return to Changjing."
"Then can we see Shu again?"
"Who knows..."
The Taoist couldn't help but smile.
The world is so big and people are so small. Missing something seems to be a common thing - if you don't pay attention or be careful, you will miss it.
If you accidentally miss it, it will be difficult to see you again.
Every old friend should be like this.
If you are lucky, you may meet someone unexpectedly at an unexpected time or place in the next few years, which will naturally be a surprise.
If you're not lucky, you'll never see it again.
The beauty of fate also comes from its elusiveness.
Fortunately, Song You is a fake Taoist priest.
Taoist priests have their own Taoist temples.
Taoist priests can move, but Taoist temples cannot.
It may also be that more than ten years later, when the Taoist travels around the world and returns to the Taoist temple, someone will knock on the door one day. When he opens the door, he will see a familiar but changed face. He will salute him and say what year it is. An old friend whom I met some time ago has never been seen again after we said goodbye. When he returns to the Taoist Temple, he will remember the address of the Taoist Temple while he is still thinking about it, while he is still able to walk, or I had to come to Yizhou for some reason, so I came to visit.
At that time, the Taoist will definitely open the door to greet you.
Although Fulong Temple has been passed down from generation to generation, it is also different from generation to generation. Like many Taoists, aging in solitude without seeing old friends is not what Song You wants to do.
…
After the swordsman eliminated the tiger demon, he did not enter the city, nor did he delay in Jinhe County. Instead, he quickly turned back with injuries.
In addition to the injury, there are other reasons.
First of all, when the sect was first established, it was very busy. As the leader, I really shouldn't leave for too long.
Secondly, the locust plague in Jiyan County has not yet been calmed down. I did go to Jiyan first, but I left soon, not only because I could not get rid of the locust plague, but also because I wanted to come here first, pass by the city, and ask for some friendship. The magistrate of Zhizhou has stepped up disaster relief efforts. By the way, he will see if he can gain some insights after removing the tigers. Maybe it can be of some help in quelling the locust plague.
Thirdly, according to rumors in the Jianghu, demons in Zhaozhou and Hanzhou have been defeated one after another. The swordsman knows the Taoist's route, as well as the Taoist's traveling speed and acting style. He feels that the gentleman is about to arrive in Guangzhou, and he may come to visit him when he arrives. If you are not at the mountain gate, you will miss it. Regardless of whether your husband comes or not, you should wait at the gate.
So he dragged his injured body back as hard as he could.
As for the remaining wild tigers and even tiger monsters in Jinhe County, they have not become popular and can be exterminated by local officers and soldiers.
After all, if you are injured, you cannot go at full speed.
The swordsman went to Jiyan County first, but before he reached Jiyan, he heard that the locust plague in Jiyan had been put down and had been caught by the swallows all over the sky.
"swallow……"
The swordsman suddenly remembered that when he first met his husband in Xuzhou, there was a swallow outside the Yizhuang.
I also heard that a Taoist priest arrived with a bay horse, a calico cat, and a swallow following them. The Taoist went into the city to ask about the situation, and also asked an old farmer for directions outside the city. There were countless swallows that day. It flew in from nowhere, killed all the locusts, and then disappeared suddenly, leaving only a monument beside the road, saying that it was done by Anqing Yanzi.
Passers-by talked about it with great interest, telling stories about the gods and goddesses of that time.
The swordsman instantly figured out who the immortal master in the story was.
At this time, as he continued to walk, the injuries on his body not only did not heal, but also tended to get worse. The swordsman didn't know what his husband's route was, so he forced himself to rush back to the mountain gate.
As soon as he arrived at the mountain gate, he heard Manager Luo say to him anxiously:
"Master, you are back! Previously, Mr. Song brought a girl named Sanhua Empress and a swallow to visit us, but you went out to eliminate demons, so I asked Mr. Song to wait at the mountain gate. Mr. Song is at the mountain gate. After waiting for seven days, I didn't see the master coming back, so I went to look for the master. Did I meet him on the way?"
When the swordsman heard this, he became anxious and asked quickly: "When did you leave, sir?"
"It's been more than twenty days."
"More than twenty days..."
The swordsman was stunned for a moment and then regretted it.
After calculating the time and making some guesses, I found out that the gentleman first went to Wushan, then to Jieyan County where the locust plague was occurring, and then he probably traveled all the way to Jinhe County.
I don’t know where it is, I must have missed it on the way.
I just don’t know where I missed it, how close it was in the nearest tense, whether it was a mountain or a street away.
The swordsman wanted to go back and look for his husband all the way, but the journey was far away, his injuries were getting more serious, and there were a lot of things waiting for him to deal with, but he didn't support him making such a trip again.
If we wait until the injury heals, I'm afraid my husband will have left Gwangju long ago.
Fate can be so frustrating sometimes.
If I miss him like this, my husband will travel around the world, and I will establish a sect in Gwangju. I don’t know when we will see each other again in this life.
"well……"
All thoughts turned into a sigh.
Manager Luo didn't know where he was when he saw this. The head of his family must have never met him before, so he didn't dare to ask any more questions. He just thought in his heart that the head's celestial relationship had come to an end after borrowing a mountain to slay the demon in Hezhou. Naturally, it is not easy to meet such an immortal.
It can't help but be embarrassing.
…
However, the Taoist was not in a hurry to leave.
There were countless evil tigers in this mountain forest. The Taoist accompanied Sanhua Empress to eradicate the evil tigers, and the swallows searched for them. When the Sanhua Empress eliminates one, she will take its aura and put it into the flag.
After waiting until there were no more man-eating tigers in the mountains, he went back to the city and took the officers and soldiers in the city to the mountain to see the tiger who was bigger than an ox and covered with sword wounds. He told them that whoever can get rid of the tiger will He is neither a spiritual master nor a god in the sky, but a martial arts swordsman in the world, Wushan Shu Yifan.
Many officers and soldiers were shocked.
Then he took Marcy to him.
Two or three days later, they left Guangzhou and entered Hezhou, which they had visited before.
At this time, there were no ghosts and ghosts everywhere in Hezhou. The weather had been good in the past two years. It was late autumn when the Taoist passed by. Thousands of miles of fertile fields had been harvested, and the people were idle and content. The Taoist had never seen the rich people in Hezhou before, but when he walked through it now, even if it was not the same as before, it already felt a bit like the granary of Dayan.
There are legends about immortals and masters everywhere.
