Zhang Heng's missed arrow attracted the attention of the jaguar, who quickly turned its attention to him.
Now Bell is still fighting another jaguar, which means that Zhang Heng must deal with this king of the rainforest alone. If he faced this situation before going to the island, he would basically have to play GG.
Not to mention the jaguar, even the giant goose at the entrance of the village may not be his opponent.
But now he has been practicing archery for a year just for this moment.
Zhang Heng quickly took out another wooden arrow from the arrow basket and put it on the bowstring. He was not in a hurry to take action because the two sides were still far apart at the moment.
At this distance, he was not completely sure of hitting the target, so he had to suppress the fear in his heart and wait for the jaguar to attack first.
This thing sounds simple, but it is not easy to do it.
Because for a long-range profession, the farther away it is, the safer it is. As the saying goes, every shooter has a kite-like heart.
However, the reality is cruel. Zhang Heng knows very well that compared with agility and speed, his two-legged body will definitely not be able to outrun the four-legged one on the other side. Moreover, it doesn't matter if he kites, this jaguar will probably gather fire with his companions first. Kill the explorer on the other side.
When the two leopards surround him together, Zhang Heng will definitely not be able to escape from the forest.
So one person and one leopard entered into a confrontation. Zhang Heng maintained a standard standing posture and adjusted his breathing according to the coach's instructions.
On the other side, the jaguar's patience was finally running out. It arched its body as a preparation before pounce.
Zhang Heng became nervous when he saw this. This time was completely different from hunting the dodo. At that time, even if he missed the target with one arrow, the result would be nothing more than not being able to eat chicken. But now if his arrow misses Well, with the jaguar's agility, it was impossible to give him a second chance to set an arrow.
Then he will be the one to be eaten.
Zhang Heng tried his best to drive these miscellaneous thoughts out of his mind and keep his emotions stable. But at the next moment, the jaguar also started to move. Its speed was faster than Zhang Heng imagined, and it left the original place in almost the blink of an eye. The strong hind legs pushed on the ground, providing the body with terrifying kinetic energy and explosive power.
The distance between the two sides was shrinking rapidly, until when it was less than seven meters, the sound of bowstrings finally sounded in the air.
This arrow can be said to be Zhang Heng's most satisfying arrow so far. After a long period of preparation and brewing, his spirit entered a state of unity between man and nature, and he felt that the world slowed down in front of him. He could see the traces of whiskers wiggling at the corners of the jaguar's mouth.
No matter the strength, angle or pre-judgment calculation, it is perfect.
As soon as the arrow left his hand, Zhang Heng was confident that it would hit the target.
And this is indeed the case.
At such a close distance and sprinting at full speed, the jaguar was unable to dodge and could only watch as the oncoming wooden arrow hit its head.
But then something unexpected happened to Zhang Heng. I don’t know whether it was because the carbonized arrow was not lethal enough or because he was just unlucky and it hit his head. In short, the arrow did not penetrate too far. Just stuck there.
The jaguar let out a painful roar, but the injury on its head was not enough to kill it on the spot. Instead, it aroused its ferocity. It held the arrow and threw Zhang Heng, who was not far away in time, to the ground. .
Zhang Heng used the wooden bow in his hand to hold the jaguar's neck tightly to prevent the other party from biting his throat. However, his upper body was pinned to the ground by the jaguar, and the latter's claws hooked into his shoulders. Several bloody holes were immediately poked out.
However, the huge pain also caused Zhang Heng's body to explode with unprecedented strength.
The proximity of death even made him temporarily forget his fear. Zhang Heng knew that no one could help him at this time, and he had to rely on himself if he wanted to survive.
He held the wooden bow in one hand, and used the other hand to pull wildly at his side. The jaguar felt that the support on its neck was weakening, and the fierce look in its eyes became more intense. It straightened its head and bit Zhang Heng's throat. , the saliva dripping from the sharp teeth fell on the latter's face, and the stench almost made Zhang Heng faint.
His situation has become more dangerous than ever.
However, the next moment, Zhang Heng's free hand finally caught the spear he had thrown down earlier.
Seeing that the foul-smelling big mouth was about to bite his own throat, he took the first step and stabbed the jaguar's neck hard. The latter's eyes froze. Not only did Zhang Heng not let go, but he pressed harder with his long tongue. The spear stirred wildly in the jaguar's neck.
At the same time, he also threw away the wooden bow in his hand, grabbed the arrow that had previously hit the opponent's head, and used both hands to exert force.
The rush of adrenaline made him forget the pain in his body. This was a life-and-death battle. There was no so-called mercy. Zhang Heng used all means to kill the beast in front of him until the sound sounded again in his ears.

Zhang Hengcai finally confirmed that he was indeed the final winner of this bloody fight.
Reaching out and pushing away the dead body that was no longer breathing, Zhang Heng saw that the battle on Bell's side was coming to an end.
The explorer was riding on his opponent, with the knife stuck in his belly.
The jaguar had lost a lot of blood, and its movements were getting slower and slower, and it was about to follow in the footsteps of its companions.
"Hey, are you okay, Zhang?" Bell asked with concern. He had seen Zhang Heng in danger before, but he was completely unable to rescue him.
"...I've always wanted a tiger skin skirt, but leopard skin is just fine." Zhang Heng panted heavily and lay on the ground in a large font. After confirming that he was safe, he lost all his strength. , not even wanting to move a little finger.
Everything that happened just now was so crazy when I think about it now, Zhang Heng's heartbeat could never calm down.
He never thought that one day he would have to fight hand-to-hand with such a large beast. In real time, he was still drinking lemonade in the bar an hour ago.
But now he is a man who has even killed a leopard.
It seems pretty cool when you think about it, but it’s best not to let something like this happen again.
"When we were fighting just now, a stone slab on the altar was broken, and I found something like this." The explorer finished his opponent and walked towards this side.
"What is this?" Zhang Heng saw the furry thing on Bell's hand, which looked like the tail of some creature. The strange thing was that if this thing was really hidden by the natives, it would not make sense for it to take so long. , the hair on it is still so well preserved.
He was about to tell Bell that you should keep this thing for yourself, but he changed his mind temporarily and asked the explorer, "Can you give it to me?"
"Of course, you saved me, twice." Bell was very generous.
"Thanks, this thing might be of some use to me."
The reason why Zhang Heng changed his mind midway was because when he took the furry thing, another reminder sounded in his ear.
