The old woman drank some water, calmed down a bit, and said slowly: "I heard the sound just now, and it seemed that two big insects were coming?"
Li Kui was surprised: "There is another big insect? Where is it?"
Cao Cao smiled and said: "I heard it right. There are two tigers, one male and one female. First, a male tiger was stabbed in the head by my sword and jumped off the cliff. Then a female tiger came up and wanted to take revenge, but... Choked to death by an iron bull."
Luan Tingyu said anxiously: "Brother, it's me..."
The old lady slapped her legs and laughed and said: "My son is born with great strength. How else can I call him Iron Bull? The roar of that big insect scares me to the point of weakness. If my son is not such a hero, who can do it so easily?" Stifled to death?"
Luan Tingyu sighed, feeling lonely and silent.
Cao Cao patted him and said with a smile: "Since there are these two tigers in this mountain, there are no other wild beasts. Tieniu, please sit with your mother for a while. I was a little frightened just now. It's good to recuperate. Brother Luan and I Go down the mountain and retrieve the sword."
Upon hearing this, Luan Tingyu jumped up, picked up a stick, lit a torch, and followed Cao Cao to find a way down the mountain. They searched under the cliff and found the dead giant tiger.
Cao Cao stepped on the tiger's face and pulled out his sword, wiped it clean carefully, and put it back into its sheath.
Luan Tingyu said: "This tiger skin has no damage at all, and it is rare to be so big. It would be a pity not to take it." Asking Cao Cao to help hold the torch, he took out the iron spear head and went to cut the tiger skin.
He is nicknamed "Iron Rod". He usually uses an iron rod, but the iron rod has no edge. If it is a horse fight, it will inevitably suffer losses, so he specially made this matching spear head. It is inserted in the back on weekdays, like a dagger. In battle, Put it on an iron rod and twist it, lock the tenon, and it will be an iron gun.
The spear head had sharp blades on both sides, and it could also be used as a short knife. He started cutting at the dung door and worked hard for a long time before cutting off the tiger skin and spreading it on the ground. It became even bigger and scary. Even though it was just a piece of skin, Wu Zi is fierce and majestic.
Cao Cao also cheered after seeing it: "What a tiger skin!" Just as he was about to let Luan Tingyu roll it up, there was a sudden noise in the dark shadow next to him, and two furry tiger cubs rolled out and jumped on the tiger skin and screamed mournfully.
Luan Tingyu sighed: "It's strange that the tigress has breast milk. Sure enough, there are tiger cubs. How can these two cubs survive without their parents? Can I give them a happy life?"
After saying that, he was about to take action. Cao Cao hurriedly called out: "Hold on!"
Luan Tingyu turned her head and saw Cao Cao's scorching eyes. He obviously liked them very much. He couldn't help but said in surprise: "Brother, do you want to raise them? Not to mention that these guys have to eat meat every day. As the old saying goes, no one can hurt a tiger. Tigers can hurt people's hearts! Such an evil beast is not a dog. How could it survive if it devours its owner?"
Cao Cao stared at the two tiger cubs without blinking an eye and said: "Brother, the mother of these two tiger cubs is ordinary, but the father gave birth to such a huge one. It is hard to say that they are some kind of rare alien species. With a father like this, the two of them grew up Well, it’s probably not an ordinary tiger.”
After hearing this, Luan Tingyu looked at the two tiger cubs suspiciously: they had round heads, chubby bodies, and four short legs. She really couldn't imagine how majestic they would be when they grow up. Cao Cao added: "If it is a big tiger, its wild nature has become difficult to tame, but these two tiger cubs may not be unable to be raised. I have an idea, which is to put the tiger house and the horse gallery together. Over time, they will The war horses we are waiting for are naturally familiar with this tiger. If he takes him to the battlefield one day, and a tiger roars, our horses will behave as if nothing has happened, but the enemy's horses will have their legs weak and frightened..."
When Luan Tingyu heard this, he couldn't help being surprised and happy, and exclaimed: "What a plan! It's really hard for me how the elder brother came up with it. This guy is known as the king of beasts. With a roar, even if he is a famous horse, he will still urinate. Come on, aren’t the cavalry troops we’re waiting for invincible in the world?”
Cao Cao shook his head and said: "With just two tigers, they cannot be invincible, but they are indeed a killer with one move. Come on, wrap them in this tiger skin and go back to the mountain first."
Luan Tingyu imagined the majestic sight of two giant tigers in front of and behind the horses when they sent out troops, and she was filled with joy. She hurriedly rolled up the tiger cub with the skin of the giant tiger, holding the baby in her arms.
When they came up to Deling, they saw Li Kui looking for some dry firewood to make a fire. He used the incense burner he brought as a pot and cooked a pot of soup with the remaining beef from his body. He was feeding his mother when he met Cao Cao and the two of them. , said cheerfully: "How come brother has been gone for so long? I wanted to cut some tiger meat for roasting, but I didn't have a knife. I just took a few mouthfuls of hot food to satisfy my hunger."
At this time, the tiger cub held by Luan Tingyu smelled the mother tiger's breath, screamed and screamed, and struggled out desperately. Li Kui was surprised and said: "How did you catch these two big insect cubs?"
Luan Tingyu put the tiger cubs on the ground and said with a smile: "Brother is going to take them back and adopt them. In the future, he will go into battle to scare the enemy's horses." Then he saw the two tiger cubs stumbling and crawling into the mother tiger's belly, and started drinking with their breasts in their mouths. Milk comes. Fortunately, the tigress died not long ago and her blood had not coagulated yet, so she still had milk to suck.
Li Kui looked at it and felt a little unbearable. He sighed: "It's so pitiful that they have become two motherless children."
Cao Cao sighed: "I once advised the tigress to go away, but she went her own way, thinking that she wanted to live and die with the male tiger. That's all, don't peel it off. After a while, the iron bull threw it off the cliff and let it go. Let’s die together with the male tiger.”
A few people were eating and drinking while watching the tiger cubs suck milk. After a while, they were probably full. The two tiger cubs, one next to me and one next to you, squeezed into their mother's arms and slowly fell asleep. Luan Tingyu stepped forward lightly, wrapped it in the giant tiger's skin, and gently picked it up. Li Kui pulled the tigress by its tail, threw it in a circle, and threw it under the cliff.
Cao Cao admired the pair of tigers who had a deep love for life and death. He prayed a few words on the edge of the cliff. What he said was: "You and your wife came to hurt us for food in your mouth. We fought and killed them to survive. Each of us has our own nature, life and death." They are all ordinary. I will take good care of the cubs you left behind and name them A Zhong and A Kang. In the future, there may be a legend in the history, which is better than dying in the mountains of old age."
After praying, he lit a torch and went down the mountain first. Li Kui carried his mother on his back and followed. Luan Tingyu hugged the little tiger behind and asked: "Brother, why don't you call them Dahu, Xiaohu, Dawei, Xiaowei? Why do you call them Azhong and Xiaowei?" Akang?"
Cao Cao smiled and said: "In the past, Cao Mengde had a tiger fool named Xu Chu who could defeat ten thousand men. His nickname was Zhongkang. Since I am called Wu Mengde, and there are two real tigers around me, wouldn't it be called A Zhong A Kang?"
Li Kui smiled and said: "Brother, there is also me, Tieniu!"
Warmth arose in Cao Cao's heart and he smiled: "Exactly, with you here, I can defeat ten tigers."
The three of them were chatting among themselves. When they came down from the mountains, the east was already white. Li Kui's wife was sleeping on her son's back. Cao Cao was afraid that she would catch a cold in her old age, so he took off his coat and put it on his wife. He said to Li Kui: "Let's go to Zhu Fu's house here. how far?"
Li Kui identified the road and said: "Go forward to the front village, then go to the back village, and then go around the county seat, which is Zhu Fu's house in the west village of the county."
Cao Cao sighed and said: "The journey is not close. In this case, it is not too late for me to quit toiling and rush to Zhu Fu's house to rest."
The three of them started walking and soon arrived at Qiancun.
How could these three not be tired after walking all night and fighting fierce tigers?
Everyone kept their heads down and just walked away. No one thought that behind a fence they passed, there was a pair of eyes full of hatred: "These three people killed my husband, burned down my house, and harmed my young and young mother." That damn ghost is a widow, how can you be willing to divorce him?"
Youfenjiao: Beasts that share life and death. When disaster strikes, they divide and fly. Most of them belong to humans. The widow has resentment in her heart, but the hero has no choice but to sink.
