Chapter 339 Village Meeting
Along the way, the little stone, which was wrapped with only its eyes showing, ran happily and fell from time to time.
However, he was wearing too many clothes and didn't feel any pain from the fall, so the adults just let him go.
When the group from Beiyuan arrived, a lot of people had already gathered at the entrance of the village.
When the villagers saw Lu Qingqing and others coming, they all greeted them.
Especially that night in the ice house, the man who followed Lu Qingqing and Qin Lang to hunt tigers was more enthusiastic than ever.
In front, Yang Yongyan saw them arriving and trotted over, saying with concern:
"Da Ya, Xiao Lang, how are you guys? Have you rested?"
Lu Qingqing nodded, drank the space water at night, and went back to sleep. Now she didn’t feel too tired anymore.
"Brother Yongyan, we are much better, how about you?"
"I'm fine. I didn't put in much effort yesterday. I was able to hunt that giant beast thanks to you two!"
As Yang Yongyan was speaking, the villagers nearby also came over.
At this time, Aunt Lu on the other side saw her and waved to her to come over.
Lu Qingqing talked to Yang Yongyan and went to Aunt Lu's place.
When we were hunting tigers yesterday, the aconite given by Aunt Lu was very helpful!
In the crowd, a woman looked at Lu Qingqing as she walked away and asked curiously:
"Yong Yan, was it really a little girl like her who killed the tiger?"
Seeing all the villagers around him looking over, Yang Yongyan explained:
"The big bug was hunted by Daya and her fellow apprentices together!"
The woman looked at Lu Qingqing's skinny little body not far away, and then looked at the tiger over there, which was skinned but still huge in size. The size difference between the two was too big.
If the person who said this had not been the village scholar, she would never have believed it.
A man who was also hunting tigers in the igloo looked at the woman's questioning expression and said,
"Mother Jiwa, didn't your husband also go up the mountain to hunt tigers? Didn't he tell you when he got back?"
The woman shook her head. "The child's father went home yesterday and went to sleep immediately. He just woke up before I came here. How could he have had time to talk?"
The man said, "No wonder, everyone who was on duty with us yesterday knew about it!"
As he spoke, he saw that all the young girls and wives in the village were looking at him. He felt that he had learned a lot from following the tiger hunter yesterday, so he raised his neck and said:
"I guess most of you still don't know what's going on, so I'll tell you while I have some free time.
Late last night, we were drowsy when we suddenly heard a tiger roar next to us, which made our ears numb!
......
You don't know how powerful that giant beast's claws are. If you were to get caught, your skin and flesh would probably be scraped off!"
Seeing that what the man said attracted the attention of a group of women, another man beside him said, not to be outdone:
"That's right. This morning when I was going down the mountain, I passed by the igloo and took a look. The mark there was so deep!"
As he spoke, the man used his fingers to indicate the length.
The women nearby were stunned when they heard this. Looking at Lu Qingqing's frail figure in the distance, they asked in confusion:
"How could such a powerful beast be killed by a little girl like Daya?"
The man looked at Lu Qingqing with admiration and appreciation in his eyes, and he defended himself after hearing the words:
"Don't disbelieve me, yesterday was all thanks to Daya!
I don't know about others, but when I heard the tiger's roar, my calves started to tremble and I couldn't even run.
Just when he was scared, he saw Daya raising her bow to face the big beast.
With a single 'whoosh', the arrow hit the giant beast's eye!"
As the man spoke, he imitated Lu Qingqing's archery moves.
A group of women around were watching the man's lively movements, and the dangerous scene of Lu Qingqing hunting a tiger last night seemed to appear in their minds.
Just as everyone was talking excitedly, Uncle Ma Zi and his family came over.
They were all dressed in heavy mourning clothes, and their eyes were red and swollen from crying, making them particularly conspicuous in the crowd.
Seeing them coming over, everyone stopped talking at the same time.
It was not until they walked away that a woman whispered:
"Didn't we know before that his father was captured by a tiger? This Tian going into the mountains is definitely dangerous!
If this was already expected, why is the whole family crying like this?"
The woman next to her saw her puzzled expression and leaned over to whisper:
"You don't even know this? Liangzi's father was gnawed by a tiger until only his head and a few large bones were left!
I heard that when Liangzi saw his father's body parts yesterday, he fainted from crying!"
"Ah? Only a few bones left? That would be terrifying!"
"That's right, that's why this big tiger is really powerful!
However, the people in the North Courtyard are more powerful, and they are the only ones who can eliminate this tiger without getting hurt!"
“Tsk tsk tsk! It really is…”
At this time, Village Chief Yang saw that most people had arrived, so he cleared his throat and said loudly:
"Everyone, please be quiet! I called you all here today mainly to talk about the tiger coming down the mountain this time!"
Listening to Village Chief Yang's words, everyone looked to his right, where a complete tiger skin was hanging.
Except for a few knife marks on the neck and waist, the rest of the body is intact.
And underneath the tiger skin is skinned tiger meat.
When the tiger was alive, everyone was afraid of it.
Now that the skin had been peeled off, the bloody flesh attracted many villagers to look over.
There’s nothing we can do about it. These days, farmers can only eat meat a few times a year!
It's rare to see meat, so naturally you'll take a few more glances at it.
Seeing that everyone had quieted down, Village Chief Yang continued:
"I believe everyone knows more or less what happened during yesterday's tiger hunt, so I'll just give a brief account.
This time when the tiger came down the mountain, the villagers were able to kill the tiger without any casualties. Daya and Xiaolang were the main contributors!
In addition to the two of them, the brothers from the North Courtyard also took the risk to take action!
Thanks to their efforts, there were no casualties in our village except for the tiger!
Everyone should be clear about this matter and remember this kindness!"
Seeing everyone nodding, Village Chief Yang continued:
"Okay, next, let me talk about this tiger.
Everyone should know that this tiger was poisoned to death!
The poison used is very strong, so the tiger's flesh and blood cannot be eaten!"
Hearing Village Chief Yang say that tiger meat could no longer be eaten, many villagers were disappointed and whispered among themselves.
"So much tiger meat, can't we eat it? What a shame!"
"Yeah, this tiger must have several hundred kilograms of meat!"
