Tiger, I rejected the iron rice bowl.

Just then, Wang Yuyu had another flash of inspiration, her body suddenly stopped, and an even more terrifying guess surfaced in her mind.

His expression grew even more grim: "No! How could this trap be so perfectly positioned, right on the route we were following the intruders?"

"This is too much of a coincidence; something's definitely not right!"

"Could it be... that this is all a trap?"

"I knew it! My wife is a fierce Siberian tiger, how could there be such a blind creature daring to invade her territory so easily?"

"Besides, it's not even deep winter yet, and food isn't particularly scarce, so there's no need to take such a big risk!"

"If these so-called 'intruders' are actually traces deliberately left by poachers to lure us into following their routes, then they lay traps along the way, waiting for us to walk right into their traps, then everything makes sense!"

Wang Yuyu grew increasingly alarmed, a chill creeping down his spine. "If that's really the case," he thought, "my wife and I are in grave danger right now. There are probably even more traps around us!"

"We must get out of here as soon as possible and find a safe place to hide!"

Wang Yuyu's eyes became incredibly determined, and he had only one thought in his mind: run quickly and save his own life and that of his concubine.

At this moment, the concubine saw that Wang Yuyu was standing there in a daze and did not react for a long time, so she became a little anxious.

He quickly stepped forward, gently nuzzled him with his head, and growled softly, "Awoo?"

It was as if they were asking him what was wrong, whether he had encountered some trouble.

Wang Yuyu snapped out of her daze and immediately growled at her repeatedly, quickly telling her what she had discovered and guessed!

After hearing this, the concubine's face also showed a solemn expression. She nodded slightly to Wang Yuyu, clearly understanding the seriousness of the matter.

After exchanging a few words, Wang Yuyu led his concubine toward his territory.

He knew perfectly well that the poachers were still in his mistress's territory. He needed to take her to his own territory to lay low for a while; it was where he knew her better and was safer.

After settling his concubine in, he would go to Tang Li and report his discovery of poachers and traps, so that the reserve staff could deal with the poachers. This way, it would be safe and a permanent solution.

If the poachers are specifically targeting him, then if he and his mistress act separately, the mistress's safety will be much greater.

Even if he encounters danger, his concubine can always escape safely.

If the poachers are only after the tigers, then it's all up to fate and luck.

Having been given a second chance at life, Wang Yuyu cherishes her life more than anyone else!

Tigers only live for about twenty years, and he wanted to live a few more years to enjoy life to the fullest!

In his heart, his wife was important, but ultimately not as important as his own life!

Not long after Wang Yuyu left with his concubine, fine snowflakes began to fall from the sky. At first, there were only a few scattered snowflakes, which gently landed on the branches and the snow.

In the blink of an eye, the snowfall suddenly intensified, with large snowflakes swirling in the sky, accompanied by a biting wind, enveloping the entire forest in a white expanse.

In just a few minutes, the snow completely covered the ground, obscuring the footprints left by the two tigers, as if they had never been on this land.

The sudden heavy snowfall, while unintentionally helping Wang Yuyu and his concubine conceal their whereabouts, also hindered the actions of both groups.

On one side are the anxious rescue teams of the nature reserve, and on the other side are the poachers eyeing them with predatory intent.

Both sides were trapped in place by the heavy snow.

The rescue team, which was already fully prepared to depart, had no choice but to stop in its tracks as it watched the heavy snow falling outside.

The snowfall was too heavy, and the snow accumulation in the mountains and forests was rapidly increasing, obstructing visibility. If the ground rescue team ventured into the mountains rashly, it would not only be difficult to find Wang Yuyu's whereabouts, but they might also encounter dangers such as avalanches and getting lost.

Even the drones originally intended for aerial reconnaissance were unable to take off due to heavy snow and strong winds and had to remain at the base.

Ji Yongjun stood by the window, looking at the heavy snow outside. He was anxious and pacing back and forth, but he was at a loss. He could only order the rescue team to stay put and wait for the snow to subside before going into the mountains.

Meanwhile, the poachers who were determined to capture Wang Yuyu were also driven to desperation by the heavy snow.

They were originally divided into two groups. One group stayed by the traces they had left beforehand, waiting for Wang Yuyu to take the bait!

Another group searched for Wang Yuyu's whereabouts in the nearby mountains and forests!

But the snow was getting heavier and heavier, and the snow was up to their ankles, making it increasingly difficult to walk. Their vision was also blocked by the heavy snow, making it impossible to continue the search.

Left with no other option, the poacher leader and his men found a secluded cave to hide in temporarily and wait for the snow to stop.

A bonfire was lit inside the cave, and the leaping flames illuminated the cave, casting several distorted human figures on the walls.

Beside the campfire, a wild rabbit and two pheasants were roasting, and a pot of soup was simmering!

The grease dripped slowly from the skin, falling into the fire and sizzling, filling the entire cave with the aroma of smoke and meat.

Around the campfire sat eight men, each with a fierce face, sinister eyes, and an aura of menace emanating from them; they were clearly not to be trifled with.

Their clothes were soaked with snow and frozen stiff, but that did nothing to conceal the ruthlessness in their bones.

Each of them held a hunting rifle and was carefully wiping the gun barrels.

The cloth slid back and forth across the metal gun body, polishing the already shiny gun body until it gleamed.

After a long silence, a thin man with a shrewd face was the first to raise his head and look at the middle-aged man sitting in the middle of the campfire. That was their leader.

The man frowned, his voice filled with worry and unease, and cautiously asked, "Boss, is the 'iron rice bowl' really coming here? How reliable is your information?"

The leader slowly raised his head, a confident smile playing on his lips, exuding an air of certainty. His tone was calm yet carried an undeniable air of authority:

"Fourth brother, the information is absolutely reliable, so don't worry, you'll definitely get a secure job."

The fourth brother's brow remained furrowed, his worry undiminished, even tinged with a hint of complaint. He said in a low voice, "Boss, look how heavy the snow is! Everything's white, not even a footprint can be left!"

"What if the secure job doesn't come? This isn't its territory; will it stay here for long?"

"We've come all this way, taking such great risks to get into the mountains; we're not here for sightseeing!"

He paused, then continued, "If I go back empty-handed, I won't be able to explain it to my wife. All this hard work will have been for nothing!"
