Era: 1979 From mountain man to richest man

Chapter 169 The tiger is injured and predicts the dream
The sound of the whistle is not too far away from here.

Everyone became nervous immediately.

Cao Wei, who had just walked over at night, was even more scared.

It felt like I was walking through a tiger's mouth.

When he came here just now, there was no one on the road, so he had no chance to call for help.

At this time, Song Chaodong had already brought a flashlight and gun to the roof of the Song family.

Others followed.

We reached the roof together.

The sun has set, and there is still a little bit of moonlight shining through the gaps in the clouds in the sky.

The fog on the mountain stretches down the mountainside into the fields, but fortunately the fog is not too thick. After everyone gets used to it, they can see clearly with the help of the moonlight.

At this moment, someone finally responded:

He yelled loudly into the distance:

At this moment, Qin Wanshan, the captain of the next door team, followed his son Qin Tie upstairs.

It's really difficult for them to respond at the top of their lungs.

Gunfire rang out.

The sound was not from the place where the whistle was blown before, but from another place.

"My dog ​​was taken away."

"Who fired the gun just now?"

After hearing this, Qin Wanshan asked loudly:

Standing on the roof of the Song family, they were not afraid that the tiger could jump up.

At this moment, a gunshot rang out at the back of the village.

The sound echoed in the valley and spread far away.

At this moment, a sharp whistle sounded from a location not far away from the mountain.

As a result, there was no response for a long time.

"Who fired the gun?"

Has this tiger changed positions again?
"Someone is probably planning to fire a gun to scare away the tiger." The second brother said uncertainly.

It was only about five or six hundred meters away from Song Chaoyang's new home.

Lao Gao's family is the hunter-gatherer in the village. There are only an old couple in the family, and several of their daughters are married.

The person who responded was their neighbor not far away.

"Did you shoot directly after seeing the tiger?" Song Chaoyang was still carefully looking for traces of the tiger, but before he could see it, he heard a gunshot.

Old Baitou and his apprentice Li Guodong, who had gone upstairs, also looked curiously at the fields.

Suddenly everyone became tense.

"Captain, me! Yan Dachun!"

"I saw a tiger!"

The visibility at the moment was not high, and the second brother's eyesight was not as good as Song Chaoyang's, and he couldn't figure out what was going on in the distance.

Although the old boss is an Orion, he also has a gun.

Echoes echoed throughout the valley.

When no one answered, he patted his son Qin Tie, who immediately shouted with all his strength:

At this time, the militia platoon leader in the brigade could no longer sit still.

In addition, Song Chaodong still had a guy in his hands, and now they wanted to see where the tiger jumped out.

Don't let the old couple be eaten by a tiger at home, right?

After a while, someone responded loudly:

None of them had seen a live tiger, and they all wanted to see what the tiger looked like in reality.

But after all, he was getting older, and he was still facing a tiger, so accidents would inevitably happen.

Afraid that something might happen to Lao Gao's family, Qin Wanshan asked his son to shout loudly, telling Lao Gao to fire a shot if nothing happened.

"boom!"

Then all the dogs in the village started barking.

He immediately began to call out to the nearby militiamen, preparing to take the lead to take a look.

"The captain put it in the yard of Lao Gao's house."

Because his wife was Lao Gaotou's eldest daughter, and Lao Gaotou was his father-in-law. The father-in-law didn't respond for a long time, and he became anxious.

"Who discovered the tiger?"

No one needed to ask what was going on, just a loud shout echoed in the valley, followed by gunshots.

Now everyone can almost determine the basic location of the tiger.

It is operating on the outskirts of the village, near the mountains and forests.

It seemed that one dog simply didn't have enough food to eat, and it was still waiting for an opportunity to attack other livestock.

But it was quite smart. It was completely different from the previous tiger. It never roared or stayed in one place.

Take one vote and immediately move to another position.

Even if people surrounded him, he might have gone somewhere else.

The tiger last time was relatively young and didn't seem to be in hunting mode yet. This one was obviously an old man, and one could sense his cunning movements.

If Song Chaoyang and the others had encountered this tiger last time, it was not certain who would win in such a heavy fog.

There may be a high probability that he will run away.

The second brother Song Chaodong did not go out this time. With so many people at home and the Qin family here, he was still a little worried about going out.

Stay here, in case that tiger comes over, you still have a gun to use.

If he leaves, there will be no one here.

So many people have already gone, and it will have no effect if he adds another gun.

On the contrary, it is better to wait here.

Standing on the roof of Song's house, you can see the militiamen who were called together by the militia platoon leader, holding torches and flashlights in their hands, moving toward the place where the tiger was found just now.

The view tonight is better than last time, but no one dares to take it lightly.

Although they now have good visibility and can spot the tiger, the tiger can also see them.

Song Chaoyang, who was standing on the roof at this moment, relied on Qi Observation Technique and watched a large group of yellow light flash past at the foot of the mountain in the distance.

Directly from behind a row of houses, like a civet, it slithered into the forest.

He frowned slightly. If his guess was correct, that would be the tiger tonight.

After the militiamen surrounded the place where the noise had just been made, they did not dare to enter the dense forest for fear that the tiger would pounce from somewhere.

You can only use a flashlight to carefully search where you can see it.

Except for some traces left by tigers, no tigers were seen at all.

When no tiger was found, the militia platoon leader immediately took people to his father-in-law's house. After going there, he discovered that the old man and his wife had climbed into the cellar of the house and hid.

They didn't hear the sound outside just now.

The shot fired before was completely arranged by Lao Gaotou to prevent the trap behind from being triggered. He felt the danger, so he fired a shot directly as a warning, and also to scare the tiger. The old hunter knew the power of this beast better than anyone else. He knew that his own door would definitely not be able to stop the tiger. After firing a shot, he hurriedly hid without any hesitation.

When he saw his eldest son-in-law coming with people, he blamed his eldest son-in-law for not coming. As an old hunter, he had many tricks to save his life by hiding at home, so there was no need to be afraid.

The militia platoon leader was also speechless by the father-in-law.

Lao Deng was worried about him, and he blamed himself for not coming. If he didn't come, his wife would probably be eaten alive by him.

But he realized it now. Lao Gaotou said just now that the tiger triggered the trap behind him. Shouldn't he be injured?

Everyone immediately went to the back of the house and immediately saw that the branches arranged in the large pit originally used to deal with wild boars had collapsed.

It's just that this trap is for catching wild boars.

Not too deadly for tigers.

The sharp spikes inside only pierced a little of the tiger's flesh.

He was not fatally injured.

This is the conclusion Lao Gaotou came to after carefully examining the blood stains left on it.

But the good thing is that although the tiger was not caught, it was known that he was injured.

In this case, the tiger might be able to be found based on the blood stains.

Lao Gaotou immediately called his mountain dog from home and gave it to his son-in-law.

The militia platoon leader was asked to hold the dog, sniff the blood stains left by the tiger, and then track the tiger.

However, the militia platoon leader thought about it and gave up this plan.

It's late at night. If you lead a dog into the mountains to track him, let alone whether you can catch him or not. Even if you catch him and come into a close fight, several people may die.

They had seen that tiger with their own eyes last time.

The arm is thicker than a person's waist, and the palm is bigger than a person's head.

If a tiger pounces on you, you won't even have time to fire your gun, and you will immediately have to reveal that one or two people are at the scene.

And this time the tiger is obviously more cunning than the last time.

He couldn't play with the lives of these militia boys.

I can't afford this responsibility.

Rejecting the father-in-law's kindness, the militia platoon leader greeted the others to go home again.

According to the original plan, everyone will continue to be on standby tonight.

Unless the tiger appears in the village again or falls into a trap, he cannot go out into the mountains to pursue him.

Everyone’s safety comes first and no risks can be taken.

After they finished their discussion, everyone had no objections, so they followed the original route and followed the large group back home one by one along the main road in the village.

Song Chaoyang and the others stood on the roof and watched the militiamen go home one after another. The second brother Song Chaodong even asked them loudly about the specific situation.

After receiving the news that the tiger was injured and escaped into the mountains, everyone who heard it breathed a sigh of relief.

Although the tiger was not caught, the tiger was injured.

I hope this guy will learn from the experience and run away quickly and never come to the village of Huohuo.

Isn’t it said that tigers will leave a place when they are frightened?

It seemed just right to be caught in a trap and injured tonight.

Don’t come to Qingsong Bay now.

Isn’t he delicious in Yangjiagou next door?
After Tiger's trouble, although the militia platoon leader judged that Tiger had hidden in the mountains, and there were militiamen on duty all the time, many people were still worried.

I put wood on the door of my house to prevent tigers from breaking in.

Not only that, but someone was also left at home to keep vigil to prevent a tiger from sneaking into the house while he was asleep.

After all, many adobe houses are not very strong to begin with. They are similar to the previous adobe houses of Song Chaoyang's family, with air leakage everywhere.

Even sleeping at home was frightening.

The only ones who can sleep peacefully are probably a few families in the village who have built red brick houses or have cellars.

Song Chaoyang watched the tiger enter the mountain, and he was not worried at all.

Go back downstairs and continue the unfinished meal.

Everyone's topic has also become talking about the impact this tiger will have.

After dinner, my wife Xu Cuiping and her eldest sister cleared away the dishes.

Others enjoyed the cool air in the yard for a while.

About an hour later, after I fed the pigs and no alarm was heard outside, everyone was ready to wash up and rest.

The high walls and solid bricks and cement of the Song family's new house give people a sense of solid security.

There is no more reassuring place in this village than here at the Song family.

The little girl's room was arranged for Cao Wei to stay overnight, and accommodation was also arranged for the others.

Fortunately, the Song family's new house is spacious, otherwise it would be difficult for so many people to settle down.

As a guest, Lao Baitou arranged to sleep with his apprentice Li Guodong.

But this old man still remembered Song Shouyi's qi-gazing technique.

Thinking of trying it tonight.

But when I learned that I had to practice in the cemetery and that it was not possible to practice in other places.

For the sake of his own safety, Lao Baitou finally gave up the idea temporarily.

There are tigers outside, so if he is asked to go to the cemetery to stay overnight alone or with his apprentice, he thinks he is not that big-hearted.

It can be seen that there is a big difference in the personality between this old old man and the old old man.

Lao Zhangtou is so courageous that he doesn't look like a normal person.

After practicing martial arts, I feel like I am not afraid of anything.

The reaction of the old man was what an ordinary person should have.

Song Chaoyang had no interest in the Feng Shui of Lao Baitou's lineage.

Without any intention of asking him for advice, he went straight back to his room and prepared to go to bed.

With his second brother keeping vigil tonight, he had nothing to worry about.

After lying on the bed, I fell asleep soon, and the familiar prophetic dream came as promised.

In the first dream, after the tiger was injured in Qingsong Bay, it fled to the mountains near Hongqi Commune and attacked a sheepfold in a village. After being discovered by the commune, it began to surround the tiger. The tiger was injured and escaped, arriving near Yangjiagou.

In the second dream, the editor of Shanghai Children's Literature and Art Magazine had arrived in the provincial capital and began to think of ways to investigate Song Chaoyang's address. That night, he successfully learned Song Chaoyang's specific address through a dinner with the editorial management of Oriental.

In the third dream, an author with the pseudonym Feiyang commented on a phenomenal children's literature work: "Calabash Brothers" in a newspaper, but it was mostly criticism. Fang Yan, the editor-in-chief of Oriental Publishing House, was preparing to write an article in response.

In the fourth dream, Zhu Xiao killed the young man who threatened him, burned his body to dregs in the cave, and threw it into the river.

In the fifth dream, on the little girl's first day at school, some classmates in the class knew that she came from the countryside and wanted to encourage her. However, Huang Meiling accidentally discovered her and directly brought this female classmate out for criticism. The classmate held a grudge, but before he could take revenge, the daughter of Lao Jin's family and others blocked him at the school gate and beat him up.

In the sixth dream, his third uncle Song Shoubao joined Zhu Xiao's team and was arranged to deceive and abduct him at the station.

In the seventh dream, Cao Wei's cousin came to visit him and brought news that his father had been reinstated.

In the eighth dream, a family from Liziqiao Village next door fell in love with Song Lan and planned to become their son-in-law. The matchmaker came to ask Li Shuhui if she would agree. The third aunt asked someone to inquire about this person and learned that he was another second-rate man. Very dissatisfied, I refused directly.

In the ninth dream, a bear was caught in a tiger trap in the village, the bear bile was confiscated, the bear meat was distributed to the militia, the second brother was given a bear paw, and the old man was going to buy it back to the city and give it away.

In the tenth dream, news of Song Chaoyang's new book was sent to the provincial capital editor-in-chief Fang Yan. Fang Yan was preparing to discuss with the company's senior management about buying it at a high price in advance.
