Lin Caiwei's eldest sister Lin Caihong happened to be returning to her parents' home with her husband. When she heard her sister's heart-wrenching cry, she asked in confusion: "What's wrong with the second sister?"
Lin Wenbin sighed: "What else can be done? It's not like that. Tell her not to get married. Don't get married. She has to get married. The man named Chang owes Mr. Mei fifty-two pieces of silver. No, it's okay. If you don’t have enough money, go to Jingyanggang to hunt tigers!”
At this point, he still asked Lin Caihong's husband Guo Pingan: "Ping An, you are working in the yamen, can you find some people to retrieve the bones of Chang."
Guo Pingan is a government official in Hanyang County.
Guo Pingan always felt that Lin Wenbin looked down on him. This was the first time that his father-in-law begged him. He straightened his back: "You went in the morning? It must have been eaten by the tiger now. It's hard to say whether there are any left. , but now that the tiger is full, you can take this opportunity to find someone to find the bones, but the risk is high and most people are not willing to go..."
To put it bluntly, it just wants money.
When the sky was bright and clear, I went to Jingyanggang with my crossbow on my back.
The government specially set up a sign at the foot of the mountain.
"There is a tiger inside, please don't enter."
There is a tea shop next to it.
Chang Qingyun went in and ordered a pot of tea.
Then he was about to leave the store and saw him heading towards Jingyanggang. He quickly stretched out his hand and shouted: "Hey, little official, you are going in the wrong direction! Your direction is to Jingyanggang! There are tigers there! I can't read." Really? That sign says there is a tiger and you will lose your life."
Chang Qingyun turned around and waved to the store with a smile: "Thank you for the reminder, I'm going to Jingyanggang."
The tea seller just watched Chang Qingyun heading towards Jingyanggang.
He shook his head.
Why.
Another one who doesn't listen to advice.
In recent years, there have been many hunters who have taken desperate risks and wanted to hunt tigers to earn money, but they were all eaten in the end.
No one has been able to kill the tiger yet, but quite a few people have already lost their lives here. The shopkeeper shook his head, he was another poor man.
From the beginning, many hunters came to challenge. Later, only those poor and in urgent need of money came to gamble their lives.
The shopkeeper returned to his shop, and soon there were groups of people coming here to drink tea, and he became busy.
Although there is a tiger in Jingyanggang, the tiger will not come down from the mountain.
He opened a tea shop at the foot of the mountain. It used to be a convenience for passing customers to drink. Later, the tiger came and the passing customers disappeared. However, many people wanted to see the tiger, so they came here at the foot of the mountain. He just drank a cup of tea and left, so his tea shop was not bad.
Chang Qingyun entered Jingyanggang, and all he heard in his ears were the calls of the birds and various unknown insects. He wanted to identify where the tiger was, but there was no movement. He took out the bow and crossbow from his bag. Come out and walk forward cautiously.
Chang Qingyun went deeper and deeper, and even when he finally got out of Jingyanggang, there was still no sign of the tiger. Could it be that he was deceived?
Or has the tiger left?
Chang Qingyun was a little disappointed. He was not afraid of the tiger coming, but he was afraid that it would not come. He was still waiting for the tiger to exchange money for repayment.
If he couldn't kill the tiger today, he really wouldn't be able to repay Mei Liangxin's money.
Do you really want to take the house to pay off the debt and lead Lin Caiwei to become a gangster?
It was already noon, when the sun was at its strongest. Chang Qingyun chose a position where he could advance, attack, retreat or defend, and took out a few pieces of rabbit meat left over from last night and started eating.
Of course the bow and crossbow are always with you.
This is a habit he has developed over the years. Even when eating, he is extremely vigilant.
There was a rustling sound in the grass.
Chang Qingyun held the crossbow tightly in his hand, turned around, and shot out an arrow the moment the thing poked its head out.
"Ouch."
A tiger cub fell down and whined.
Chang Qingyun's heart trembled.
There are little tigers.
That means there is more than one tiger here, probably a male and a female!
He reloaded the arrow, more alert.
"Roar!"
After a while, two big tigers rushed out towards Chang Qingyun at the same time.
Seeing their children being killed, the two big tigers were aroused and rushed towards Chang Qingyun.
Chang Qingyun shot another arrow and rolled away.
The male tiger was also shot through the neck with an arrow.
"Oow, ooh, ooh..."
The remaining tigress rushed towards Chang Qingyun like a madman this time.
Chang Qingyun shot two arrows, but the tigress dodged them.
This tigress was unstoppable and was about to pounce on Chang Qingyun. Chang Qingyun rolled several times in a row and shot the tigress at the most critical moment.
All dead.
Chang Qingyun wiped his sweat.
Sitting on the ground.
The tiger is fast and really fierce. I was almost bitten by this tigress just now. Fortunately, I was not in danger. It seems that the fifty taels of silver are enough. Now I have to go down and find someone to carry the tiger to the government to claim it. Silver.
Chang Qingyun confirmed that the tigers were dead, took off the arrows from the tigers, repackaged the bow and crossbow, carried it on his back, rested and prepared to go down the mountain.
The shop selling tea at the bottom of the mountain suddenly heard the roar of tigers on the mountain and couldn't help but tremble.
Something happened to that little official.
That little official looks like he has a lot of talent, and he might be able to do great things in the future. It's a pity, it's a pity.
Why.
If you don't listen to the old man's words, you will suffer a lot!
While he was cleaning the table, he looked towards Jingyanggang from time to time.
I don't know what to expect.
At this time, a cart came over. The leader was a man wearing a government official's clothes, followed by three strong men.
The shopkeeper hurriedly greeted him and said, "Businessman, we can't go any further. There are tigers in Jingyanggang ahead. Do you want to come and have a pot of tea?"
Lin Caiwei, who was wearing a bamboo hat, jumped off the cart and said, "Shopkeeper, did you see a tall, thin man wearing blue cloth today?"
She now desperately hopes that the news Sister Liu gave her is wrong, and maybe Chang Qingyun has not come.
The shopkeeper sighed: "The little official you mentioned is seven feet tall, has dark eyes, and is very energetic, right? When he came today, he also carried a blue baggage."
Lin Caiwei nodded: "Yes, it's him. Where did he go? Did he not go to Jingyanggang? Did he turn around and go home again?"
"Hey, he went to Jingyanggang, you are..."
Lin Caiwei cried loudly.
Guo Pingan took the three people he brought into the tea shed: "We are here to collect his bones. Shopkeeper, give us a pot of the best tea first."
Lin Caiwei took out the five taels of silver that her mother had given her from the bottom of the box, and Guo Ping'an agreed to find three people to help find Chang Qingyun's body.
Guo Ping'an sat on the stool with a golden sword.
The shopkeeper hurriedly went to prepare tea. When he passed by Lin Caiwei, he paused: "My condolences, ma'am. Just now there was a roar of tigers from Jingyanggang. The little official is probably..."
There is no need to say more about what it is, most of the time, everyone understands it.
Lin Caiwei suddenly collapsed on the ground: "Guanren! You died so miserably!"
