Chapter 13, Dancing with Wolves

When everyone took a closer look, they saw that the walking posture of those who led the way was really a little strange, like flying lightly on the ground. Their feet floated on the ground one or two high, and they did not walk like normal people at all!

"Look this way!" Everyone was surprised, but they heard the front samurai shouting, and their voices trembled completely. Everyone caught up with two steps and followed his expectations. They only felt that their hearts tightened suddenly, and they were all cold to the bone, all stunned on the spot.

The abnormal reaction of the people around him finally diverted Ji Xuanxuan's attention from Xia Feng and couldn't help asking, "What is that?" With that, he also turned his eyes to the place where everyone was staring and smiled carelessly, "It turned out to be a pile of bones." Then he suddenly realized, hid in Xia Feng's arms, and repeated in horror: "A pile of bones!"

That's really a pile of bones. In the pass in front of the cave on the hillside, I don't know how many layers there are. The top layer still has coagulated blood stains, but it is clean without any skin and internal organs, just a incomplete skeleton.

"It's Bahu!" The old man Gufeng, who led the way, suddenly fell softly to the ground. "When we get to Bahu's territory, we will all be eaten by it, and we will become tigers like those people!"

"It turns out that those people are tigers!" Yan Gonghai's voice also completely changed, and his face turned pale in an instant. "It turns out that they are not human beings at all, but a kind of ghost. No wonder they can't walk on the ground. Hurry back! Everyone, go back!"

As soon as the words fell, I saw a huge tiger claw poked out of the cave and pass a few feet away and patted on the person. Two warriors in black who had no time to dodge were immediately patted flesh and blood. Two huge tiger claws slowly protruded out of the tiger palm cushion, like two sharp machetes, gently poking the ground. On the two bloody bodies, the two bodies were forked like forks and then leisurely sent into the cave. A moment later, two bloody bones were thrown out and thrown into the pass in front of the cave, becoming the latest two of the pile of bones.

Seeing this, everyone shouted and fled down the mountain in horror, rolling and climbing all the way, completely ignoring the roaring wolves who were still in the bushes at the foot of the mountain. Now in the eyes of everyone, it is better to fight to the death with human wolves than to become a snack of a tiger. At least there is a little hope of survival. If you face Bahu, the huge tiger palms of the two warriors with one claw can make people lose all fighting spirit.

The mountain is not high, and it is not far from the mountainside to the foot of the mountain. Everyone arrived in a blink of an eye and were surprised to find that Bahu did not chase it out. Everyone picked up their weapons and planned to rush to the bushy area to fight with the wolves who were still waiting there. But strangely, those wolves were not prepared to fight. They still walked back and forth unwillingly, completely ignored the people getting closer and closer, but stared at the crowd with saliva, and their eyes were full of that unattainable saliva.

Everyone has fled to the foot of the mountain, their feet are running, and the ground is retreating rapidly, but everyone gradually find that they can't reach the dividing line with weeds. From there, there are bare and barren rocks on the mountain, and down the mountain are lush barren grasslands and primitive jungles, and those wolves are waiting for them. None of the grass and shrubs crossed the boundary half a step.

Xia Feng also pulled Ji Xuanxuan to escape, but he soon found that he could never get to the foot of the mountain. No matter how fast you run and how fast the ground under your feet retreats, the distance between you and the boundary at the foot of the mountain has never been shortened by one point. After understanding this, he simply stopped and stopped doing useless work. Shen Dan, the princess of the south, also stopped and pulled Yan Gonghai, who was still fleeing, and said bitterly, "Your Majesty, it's 'painting the ground as a prison'. I really can't figure out how Bahu would use the spell of 'painting the ground as a prison' spell to detain its prey. We don't have to escape. It's useless."

Yan Gonghai stopped and asked in panic, "My concubine, how can we break this spell?"

"I can't break it," Shen Dan smiled bitterly. "This is a very profound spell of Dongxuan Xuanmen. I have only heard of it and never seen it."

After a while, everyone stopped breathlessly one after another. Some people understood the joints and knew that it was useless to escape. More people really couldn't run, so they had to stop and fall to the ground and gasp. At this moment, there was a thunderous roar from the cave on the mountainside, which made everyone's ears ache, and the leaves in the distance trembled. Follow a huge tiger claw in the cave and step elegantly and gently on the rocks in front of the cave. More than a dozen wolves still gathered at the foot of the mountain and fled to the dense forest in horror. In a blink of an eye, they fled without a trace.

Everyone stared at the tiger's claws protrude the cave, and then there was a huge tiger's head like a house, a tiger's waist as thick as a giant tree, and a tiger's tail several feet long. Finally, Bahu's huge body also completely stepped out of the cave. It is several people tall and unimaginably large, and even the elephant looks a little small in front of it.

Everyone stared at Bahu in horror, licking his lips lazily, and there were fresh blood stains on it. Then he stretched his waist long in front of the cave like a cat, and then began to move his paws and feet like a cat. The huge rock was pulled and rolled like a ball by it. Then it slowly patrolled the rocky mountains again, like a proud emperor inspecting its territory. So far, it has turned a blind eye to the people who fell into its territory, and even hasn't even looked at it at all.

Everyone held their breath and dared not breathe out. They secretly prayed not to let Bahu see them. At this time, the huge and friendless Bahu suddenly jumped in front of everyone, as flexible as a cat. Before the crowd hurriedly escaped, it had slapped a slightly slower warrior in black to death, and then lay on the ground, holding the warrior with its two front paws and nibbled it with relish, completely ignoring the feelings of the rest of the people. It was not until the skeleton was nibbled clean that it spit out an illusory figure from its mouth. After the figure landed, it gradually became clear, vaguely the appearance of the warrior in black. After all this, Ba Hu stretched out and slowly walked back to the cave, completely ignoring everyone, as if he knew that these prey could no longer escape his territory.

There are a few more tigers in front of the cave. From their costumes, they can faintly recognize the warriors in black who have just been eaten by the tiger. At this moment, they are mixed among other tigers. Their appearances are not much different from their lives, but there is no longer any expression on their faces. They waited blankly in front of the cave, as if they were waiting for something and as if they were doing nothing at all.

What should I do? The remaining survivors looked at each other and asked each other with their eyes, hoping to find a glimmer of hope in the eyes of others. But everyone failed. Everyone was equally afraid and confused. After walking through this bare hill for a moment, everyone understood that the spell of "painting the ground for a prison" did not leave them any gap. They could not leave the hill and return to the dangerous jungle. Now they miss this piece instead. It's close to the unreachable and dangerous jungle.

"I'll try to take you out!" Alette jumped down from the air and motioned to everyone eagerly. Everyone was overjoyed, but unfortunately, before they came out, they heard Princess Nan smile bitterly at Alette: "Try to fly out first. The spell of 'drawing the ground for a prison' can not only imprison animals on the ground, but also the birds in the air can't fly out of its range."

Alet raised his wings suspiciously and flew down the mountain. The mountain is not big. Usually, it should fly out as soon as it shakes its wings, but today, it can't fly out of its sky. In the eyes of everyone who fell to the ground, the winged prince was flapping his wings desperately, but like a big bird that was tied up, he could never fly over the hill. The situation seemed very strange.

"Don't panic, I still have a way!" After saying that, Xia Feng pulled up his cloak to cover his whole body, and then read the "hidden spell". His body suddenly disappeared out of thin air in front of everyone's eyes. Everyone was surprised. Xia Feng's curling voice came not far ahead: "I'll go to the tiger's nest. You can find a place to hide first."

Everyone hid behind a pile of rocks, and then looked hard in the direction of Xia Feng's voice, but they couldn't see any trace of Xia Feng.

The cave on the mountainside was extremely large and empty, and the summer wind hidden in the invisible cloak quietly came to the cave. Finally, there is a chance to observe those tigers closely, and only at such a close distance can we see that they are completely different from real people. In fact, they are just illusory shadows, floating in the air, just like images of holographic movies. A gust of wind can also make their bodies ripple, like figures on the lake wrinkled by the wind.

Quietly bypassing the sitting or standing tigers, Xia Feng carefully touched the cave. The cave was a little hazy. Not far after entering, he saw the huge tiger lying on the ground like a lazy cat, making a uniform purring sound, as huge as more than a dozen bellows blowing at the same time. Two small tigers bigger than the cow squeezed tightly under its stomach and were constantly arching their heads to sipping milk. This tiger is actually a mother tiger that has just been born. No wonder it is so lazy, but it has such a large amount of food.

Xia Feng was looking at it, but saw that Ba Hu's ears suddenly stood up, followed by it stopped snoring, suddenly turned over and sat up, constantly moving his nose wings, stretching his neck and sniffing around the hole. The summer wind hiding in the invisible cloak dared not move, and the handle of the cicada wing knife in his hand almost clenched out of the water.

Ba Hu's huge nose stopped in front of Xia Feng and almost came close to him. The smell of fishy heat made Xia Feng nausea. Bahu seemed to be a little confused about the situation in front of him. His nose smelled a strange smell, but there was nothing in front of him. He hesitated for a moment and finally carefully poked out the tiger's claws and tried to touch the place where Xia Feng was.

In order to avoid the temptation of the tiger's claws, Xia Feng had to jump aside. This move made Bahu notice where he was and immediately patted the tiger's palm. Xia Feng saw that it was difficult to hide his whereabouts, so he poked out of his cloak and just stretched out his nose in the piercing him, and immediately broke the tiger's nose. He opened a big bloody mouth. Bahu roared and immediately slapped the exposed Xia Fengfei palm.

The huge tiger roar scared everyone outside the cave to avoid. Only Ji Xuanxuan had been worried about Xia Feng's safety. Hearing the angry tiger roar, she no longer care about the danger and immediately ran to the cave. The tigers at the mouth of the cave immediately surrounded her, and the illusory shadows surrounded her stupidly. Some also stretched out shadow-like hands to her, and the empty claws fell on Ji Xuanxuan, making her cold all over.

"Get out of here!" Ji Xuanxuan didn't know the courage and rushed through the shadows. Although the shadows were tangible and intangible, when they passed through them, they made people feel as cold as falling into an ice cave. After a few steps, Ji Xuanxuan's teeth trembled with cold. Her face was pale and almost lost strength, while the tigers in front of them were still I don't know how many layers are stacked.

The roar of the tiger sounded in the hole again, which made Ji Xuanxuan give up the idea of breathing for a moment. She suddenly pulled out the dagger in her waist, screamed, and rushed forward randomly. The tigers retreated one after another. They didn't have time to dodge. When they were touched by the sword, they immediately twitched painfully, and finally melted little by little. There is no trace in the air.

Ji Xuanxuan finally rushed into the cave. In the hazy cave, the white light on the dagger suddenly became very obvious. Just as Ba Hu was slapping Xia Feng, which had been exposed from the cloak. Ji Xuanxuan rushed forward without thinking about it and waved her sword to the swept tiger palm. With a flash of white light, Ba Hu quickly shrank his palm, but it was still half a step late. The two sharp claws like machete on the tiger's palm hit the dagger and immediately broke silently, as easily as cutting tofu.

Bahu retreated in a hurry, his eyes showed fear for the first time, and stared nervously at the dagger in Ji Xuanxuan's hand. At this time, Ji Xuanxuan found that the white sword light on the dagger seemed to have a deterrent effect on Ba Hu, so she raised it high. Sure enough, Ba Hu began to retreat timidly under the light of the sword, with a deep roar in his throat.

"The Sword of Light! Sure enough, it's a little useful. No wonder it can be as famous as the 'Dark Blade'!" Xia Feng got up from the ground awkwardly, and his whole body was full of scars scratched by sharp rocks, but fortunately, it was all skin injuries.

"Go quickly, I'll block it first!" Ji Xuanxuan raised her sword and stared at Ba Hu nervously and shouted to Xia Feng. Xia Feng came to her, took the holy sword from her hand, and whispered in her ear, "If you don't kill this beast, no one can leave. You go out and wait for me for a while."

"I'm not leaving! What if you can't deal with it? Ji Xuanxuan stared at the tiger close at hand, and there was no fear in her eyes. Xia Feng's heart was hot and held her in his arms: "Fool, if I can't deal with it, I can still escape. Do you think I'm going to fight with this beast?" After saying that, he took off the cloak and covered it on Ji Xuanxuan. Although the cloak could be invisible, it could not escape the tiger's nose and affected the action. It was basically useless to deal with the tiger.

"How are you, Xia Feng?" Cunel's panting voice came from behind, and she also boldly rushed into the cave. She was followed by the winged Prince Alette, who jumped between the rocks at the top of the cave with bows and arrows, as flexible as a winged apes.

Yan Gonghai outside the cave saw that Xia Feng and they all went into the tiger's den. He knew that if they couldn't kill Ba Hu, he would not live long outside, so he shouted at the surviving warriors: "Let's rush in together, and success or failure!"

Everyone shouted, picked up the bow and arrow and rushed into the cave, shooting the arrows at Bahu one after another, which was no threat to Bahu, but distracted his attention. Xia Feng took this opportunity to signal Ji Xuanxuan to retreat to the rock recess beside her, and then said to Kunel and Alette, "Don't get close, just distract him from him with arrows in the distance. I'll deal with it!" Saying that, Xia Feng put the holy sword in his mouth, and then jumped on the rock next to the wall of the cave like an ape. The rock climbing skills he once practiced has finally come in handy.

Everyone's arrows stuck on the tiger's thick and tough fur, which could hardly hurt it, but it could threaten the two little tigers. Therefore, the tiger did not dare to stay away from the little tiger, so he had to protect the tiger cub and roared angrily and wait for the opportunity to fight back. Immediately, several warriors in black were slapped into meat cakes by it, but it was powerless for those who hid behind the rocks in the distance, so he had to use its body to block the rain of arrows for the two cubs. While this time, Xia Feng had climbed to the top of the cave wall, and then jumped to the Bahu below. The bottom of the cave was a little narrow, which limited the movement of the tiger. It could not avoid the summer wind that jumped down from the top of the cave wall. It was steadily fell on its back by the summer wind and inserted a sword into the back of its neck.

The bright sword completely fell into the body of Bahu, and almost even inserted the hilt of the sword. Bahu roared and suddenly threw Xia Feng from his back. When Xia Feng grasped the hilt of the sword and fell from mid-air, the sharp sword pulled on the neck of Bahu and immediately cut the big blood vessels on its neck, and blood was like a fountain. It splashed out and sprayed red on the wall of the cave. Ba Hu let out a desperate cry, his mission struggled for a moment, and finally fell to the ground like a mountain.

Everyone cheered in unison and shot the two little tigers on the spot. The old man Gu Feng, the guide, told everyone excitedly, "The courage of the tiger can not only calm down and avoid evil, but also drive away many fierce beasts and insects in the southern wilderness forest."

According to their words, everyone broke the tiger's belly, took out its child-sized gallbladder, and under the guidance of the old man Gu Feng, and smeared the gall on his body one after another. In this jungle, the taste of the tiger can also scare off the vast majority of beasts.

When the bile was exhausted, there were still a few irregular objects the size of a child's fist left in the gallbladder. The black hair was like charcoal. A warrior carefully picked up a piece, looked over and over for a long time, and asked doubtily, "What is this?"

"It's a gallbladder!" The guide was even more excited, "It's ten times more effective than boldness, and it can be preserved for a long time!"

"What kind of gallbladder, it's just gallstones." In addition to the fierce beast, Xia Feng couldn't help joking when she saw Ji Xuanxuan's desperate feelings for herself at a critical moment. However, aside from the joke, he picked a small piece with Ji Xuanxuan and put it away to commemorate the love of the two living and dying together.

As soon as Ba Hu died, the spell of "drawing the ground as a prison" was naturally broken. Everyone returned to the foot of the mountain and suddenly found that this dangerous primitive jungle was extremely friendly and made people feel like a different world. Everyone was bold and bold. On the way, the beasts and insects fled one after another, and even the fierce wolf did not dare to approach half a step. Seven or eight later, everyone finally walked out of this vast primitive jungle. After climbing a high mountain, Xia Feng and Ji Xuanxuan, who walked in front of them only felt a bright future. Both of them grew up and couldn't speak for a long time, and their expression was more shocked than seeing Ba Hu for the first time.
