Under Yujie's pleading, the soldier who urged her said again: "Mrs. Jun has repeatedly told me to throw it into the lake..."
Another soldier probably couldn't bear it, and said: "Those in the barren mountains and wild mountains will become food for tigers and wolves even if they don't starve to death. What's the difference between throwing them into the water? Just put them by the lake..."
Yujie saw that it was like a person who was being executed was granted amnesty, and she quickly placed the baby on a green grass by the lake. She had just put the baby down, and couldn't help but pick it up, hugged her tightly, pressed her face against the baby's tender red face, and said with tears in her eyes: "Little Master, it's not that my aunt is cruel, she is also forced to be helpless. As a last resort... I wish you good luck and good luck and may you be found by some kind-hearted person..." After that, he reluctantly put him on the grass... Such a miserable scene, even God couldn't bear it. The clouds blocked the sun.
Under the repeated urging of the two soldiers, Yujie left the place with one step and three turns. When they came to a slope, when Yujie looked back at the baby by the lake again, she stopped again. Despite the constant urging of the two soldiers, she refused to leave. She couldn't worry about the baby by the lake. She had to guard it here, waiting for someone to come and take the baby away. However, in this inaccessible barren mountain and wilderness, who would come to this place where ghosts do not lay eggs?
At this moment, a baby's loud cry came from the lake. He must be hungry. Yujie insisted on going back despite the obstruction of the two soldiers. While the three people were pulling there, they suddenly heard a tiger roar that shook the mountains and the earth. After a strong wind, a beautiful tiger jumped out of the forest. The tiger looked around for a while, then went down the hillside and walked slowly towards the baby. No, the hearts of the three people suddenly jumped into their throats.
The tiger soon came to the baby and sniffed it up and down. The swaddled baby was turned over and rolled over by the tiger's nose. Yujie's heart almost broke. She tried to pounce on the baby several times, but was grabbed by the soldiers every time. The tiger sniffed for a while, then actually picked up the baby and got into the woods on the slope... Yujie was suddenly heartbroken, tears streaming down her face, and she couldn't help but howl to the woods. The two soldiers quickly recovered from their shock, and without any explanation, pulled Yujie away from there.
In the evening, Yujie seemed to have lost her soul, and her legs seemed to be tied with lead. Her steps were heavy, listless, and her expression was dull. At this time, her heart was still stuck on the moment when the tiger took the baby away. She was overwhelmed by extreme sadness and heavy guilt. When she walked into Yun Jiang's room step by step, when she saw the heartbroken Yun Jiang, she knelt on the ground with a plop. When Yun Jiang saw her, he immediately rushed towards her, grabbed her skirt and shouted: "Yujie, where have you done my son? Where have you done my son?"
Yujie's face was covered with tears. No matter how Yun Jiang pushed and questioned, she remained silent, as if she was in a daze. Yun Jiang pulled, shook, and questioned, but when Yujie remained silent, her questioning gradually turned into begging. She knelt on the ground and cried out with tears in her eyes: "Sister Yujie, sister, please tell me quickly. Where did the child go? Take me to find him quickly..." The miserable cry moved everyone present.
In the past few days, state and family affairs have confused Duke Yun. But at this time, the neighboring country of Jiao once again sent envoys. Jiao Shi said that the Chu State was becoming increasingly powerful and had the potential to annex smaller neighboring countries. At present, the king of Chu, Fu Mao, is marching south, and the country is empty. It is a perfect opportunity for a sneak attack. Please ask Yun State to send troops to attack Chu together. The superior official, Tuan Chengzi, quickly stopped him and said: "It's impossible, it's no longer what it used to be. The sum total of Jiaoyun and the surrounding countries can't equal the chance of Chu. Fighting with Chu is tantamount to destroying yourself with an egg against a stone. Jiaojun This is like a dying man asking for a companion to support him even though he is dead. The king must not agree to this!"
Yun Guo said fairly: "Tang Qing's family is right. The last time the country was in trouble, I had to send troops. My nephew Bobi also warned me in the same way. Naturally, I would not agree..." So he politely said it again on the grounds that the country had just suffered a drought. He declined Jiaoguo's request to send troops.
The bright morning sun dissipates the morning fog in the mountains, and the cool wind shakes the trees on the slope. The vast plains are intoxicated with the joy of being far away from the hustle and bustle.
Early that morning, Duke Yun and several of his personal ministers came to Tianmen Mountain to relieve their worries by hunting. When we came to an open area, suddenly a gray wolf emerged from the grass. Duke Yun shot an arrow straight through the wolf's neck. The wolf jumped so high that it fell to the ground and died. Everyone cheered. I had just harvested a wolf, and in the blink of an eye, a sika deer emerged from the forest. Duke Yun once again drew an arrow and fired his bow, and hit the deer's butt. Unexpectedly, the arrow fell from the deer's butt. The escorting soldier ran forward to pick up the arrow and saw that there was no arrowhead. The senior official, Tang Chengzi, asked puzzledly: "The king just shot an arrow through the throat of the wolf. They are also prey. Why did he use clustered arrows to shoot wolves and arrows without arrows to shoot deer?"
The justice of the state of Yun said: "Wolves are evil beasts and should be shot, so I used arrows with arrows. I saw that the deer just now had a swollen belly, so I must be pregnant with a cub. The female beast is still among the wild beasts in the forest. How can we hunt the source of it?"
It turns out that whenever Duke Yun goes hunting, he usually carries two types of arrows, with and without arrows. When he encounters evil beasts or male animals, he uses arrows with arrows, and when he encounters female animals, he uses arrows without arrows... Tang Chengzi couldn't help but praise him. Said: "It is the blessing of the country and the people that the king is kind and kind!"
At this moment, a baby's cry suddenly came from nearby. How could there be a child crying in the mountains and forests? Duke Yun felt very strange, so he followed the cry and looked for it. Passing through a mountain forest, I saw a baby lying on the slope in front, and the cry was very loud. He probably heard the cry of a baby, and several goshawks landed in the air, spreading their broad wings to provide him with shade. Still, the baby kept crying. Then another colorful tiger appeared in the forest. Duke Yun said: "No!" He was about to step forward to rescue, but was stopped by everyone. It turned out that Tan Chengzi, who was standing next to him, saw the clues and realized that the tiger had no intention of harming the baby. Instead, he licked the baby's swaddling clothes several times and lay on the ground. As soon as the baby got close to the tiger's belly, he took the nipple in his mouth and sucked greedily. stand up. Looking at the scene of the tiger nursing the baby, everyone was surprised and strange. They were so far away that they didn't even dare to breathe.
About half an hour later, the baby was full and stopped crying. The tiger stood up and sniffed the baby for a while, then picked up the baby and crawled into a nearby hole. Seeing that the baby was safe and sound, Duke Yun and all the civil and military ministers took a long breath. Tang Chengzi immediately said: "Congratulations to the king, congratulations to the king!"
Upon seeing this, all the civil and military ministers also knelt down and congratulated Yun Guo. Duke Yun was so confused that Monk Zhang Er was confused and asked quickly: "Where does happiness come from?"
Tuan Chengzi said: "The king governs the country with benevolence and righteousness, and his virtues convince people and influence all things. Even the fierce mountain beast Yututu, who people talk about turning tiger's color, was also influenced. Just now Yututu nursed his son is proof!" Yun Guo said fairly: "Whose son is this? Why was it abandoned in In the mountains and wilderness?”
Tuan Chengzi said: "No matter whose child is abandoned in the mountains, he still survives the catastrophe. There are goshawks protecting him and tugs feeding him. This shows that this child has God's blessing and will be extraordinary in the future! If he is taken back, If you raise him up, he will surely achieve great things in the future, and he may even become a pillar of the country!"
Duke Yun thought it was reasonable, so he ordered everyone to hide on the spot and watch the tiger's movements closely.
It was midsummer, and the afternoon sun was extremely scorching. Squatting in the hot grass, Yun Guogong couldn't help but sweatdropped on his head. The two guards hurriedly pulled up a piece of yellow silk to shield him from the sun, but Duke Yun pulled it away. He may have moved the baby elsewhere for fear of being discovered by the tiger.
The sun gradually slid towards the west sky, but the heat in the mountains did not subside. After a few hours, Duke Yun and all the ministers were already sweating profusely. The tiger in the cave was so hot that he opened his mouth and tongue and kept panting, but he had no intention of leaving. Seeing that the tiger refused to leave, Duke Yun could only lie down in the grass, and the man and the tiger were wasting away like this. Clouds drifted past the top, looking at the desolate hills with amazement, witnessing the moving scene below.
