She Rebuilt Her Fallen Country With Storage Space-Chapter 210: Encountering Tigers, and There are 3 of Them!

Chapter 210: Chapter 210: Encountering Tigers, and There are 3 of Them!

The treasure sword shimmered with a dark glow, and its handle was of heavy iron.

The name Qing Lin was inscribed on the hilt.

Xiang Ying paused briefly, but did not refuse, and strapped it to her back.

"Then, thanks to General Pei for now."

The further they walked into the deep mountains, the denser the forest became.

This deserted place made the soldiers following Pei Qinglin furrow their brows.

"In these endless mountains, when will we ever find what we’re looking for?"

Xiang Ying thought for a moment: "Let’s rest here for a while, I’ll climb a tree and have a look."

She then dismounted swiftly, and chose the tallest tree.

Wrapping cloth around her hands, she skillfully climbed up.

Pei Qinglin slightly furrowed his brow.

This Wang Ying, truly skillful indeed.

However, such a person is the one he should be extra wary of.

Xiang Ying reached the top of the tree, apparently scanning the surroundings, but secretly deployed a drone to scout.

Although the method was slow, it was the only option they had.

As Xiang Ying controlled the drone, moving it eastward, the soldiers below suddenly became alert.

"What’s that sound?" "Be careful! Something’s approaching."

Their shouts forced Xiang Ying to abandon the drone reconnaissance and open her eyes.

Looking down from the tree, she saw Pei Qinglin already prepared with his men in battle array.

Qi Fengyi clenched his sword, his eyes dark as he scanned the surroundings.

The wind rustled through, sounding the flutter of leaves in the entire forest.

But within those sounds, Pei Qinglin detected something odd.

It seemed like the panting of a wild beast.

"Form a circle, swords out!" he immediately commanded.

Encountering wild animals in the forest was common.

Usually bears, wolves, or tigers.

But with their limited numbers, engaging in a fight with wild beasts risking lives would be a loss.

Immediately, everyone formed a circle, back to back.

Pei Qinglin shouted up, "Mr. Wang, don’t come down yet!"

Xiang Ying was squinting into the distance.

She lowered her voice: "About ten li to the southeast, something is nearing through the bushes."

The underbrush in the mountain grew vigorously, unchecked, almost waist-high.

Predators that stalk their prey are usually wolves or tigers.

But neither was easy to deal with.

Wolves moved in packs, and if it were wolves desperate with hunger, they might not win.

Pei Qinglin stood ready, secretly hoping it would just be a tiger...

The sunlight slanted, and while the forest wasn’t very transparent, it was enough for them to distinctly see where Xiang Ying pointed—the shrubs shaking more violently.

Clumps of grass were pressed down; this beast was not small.

The horses of Pei Qinglin’s men sensed danger, struggling desperately.

Fortunately, they had tied the horses to the trees, the horses couldn’t escape and screamed in fear.

Suddenly!

A deep and resonant roar exploded, shaking the air.

A mature tiger with distinctive stripes and a white mark on its forehead leaped out from the left side of the bushes.

Its body was robust, its orange and black coat sleek and shiny, its large bell-like eyes shimmered with a chilling glint, its gaping maw slightly open, its sharp white teeth glinting fiercely in the fading light.

However, it seemed not to have an intention to attack, but moved around Pei Qinglin and his group, circling once.

It seemed to be sniffing something.

Pei Qinglin immediately commanded in a low voice: "Nobody move rashly!"

About a dozen soldiers spontaneously lined up, their sword points directed at the tiger.

Should it make any sudden move, it shouldn’t be difficult for so many to kill one tiger.

However, Xiang Ying, perched in the tree, noticed there were still movements in the nearby bushes.

She lowered her voice: "General Pei, be careful, there are still two behind you."

As soon as her voice fell, two more tigers slowly walked out of the bushes behind Pei Qinglin.

Compared to the first one, their sizes were slightly smaller.

Their pairs of tiger eyes stared intently at General Pei and his men, closing in step by step.

The first tiger sniffed around for a while then suddenly let out a low growl, its claws extended ready to pounce!

Pei Qinglin did not hesitate, stabbing forward with his sword!

Suddenly, a tender voice called out, "Don’t attack!"

Like understanding human speech, the tiger that was about to pounce on General Pei suddenly leaped to the side.

Pei Qinglin also just managed to withhold his hand and turned to look towards the source of the voice.

The bushes rustled slightly, and a familiar small figure emerged.

Qi Fengyi was the first to react with surprise: "Sec...Second Young Master?"

Xiang Ying was also stunned.

Why was her second son Xiang Yuanlang here?

The composed Xiang Yuanlang calmly removed the leaves from his head.

He waved his small hand, and the tigers cuddled up to him like big cats.

With a serious expression on his young face, Xiang Yuanlang patted the tiger’s head.

He said: "I asked you to find my dad, you couldn’t find him, so you thought about eating people? Didn’t you think to look up?"

Xiang Yuanlang stretched out his small hand pointing upwards, the three tigers raised their heads, their cold pupils fixed on Xiang Ying.

Pei Qinglin and the soldiers beside him were all stunned.

"You... know these tigers?"

Before Xiang Ying could speak, Xiang Yuanlang confidently said: "We used to travel everywhere, learned a bit of animal taming tricks, didn’t expect it to come in handy now."

Xiang Ying slid down from the tree swiftly.

The three tigers immediately surrounded her, nudging her towards Xiang Yuanlang.

Then, as if waiting for praise, they lay down in their spots.

Xiang Ying looked at the youngster, surprised: "Did you come here alone?"

Xiang Yuanlang nodded.

His arms folded, he confidently said: "You were looking for people, I surely can help. I wanted to follow before you all set off, but I was worried my older brother and sister would want to come too."

So he waited until Tao Xue and the others were not paying attention, and directly ran out.

Pei Qinglin was particularly astonished: "Then how did you find us?"

A child, just by walking, could travel this far?

Xiang Yuanlang glanced at him: "I told you, I can tame beasts, sensing your presence isn’t tough."

Pei Qinglin, who thought he had seen a lot, involuntarily gasped in amazement.

This child, was he serious?

His gaze could not help but fall on Xiang Ying, his expression complex.

A young father with high martial arts skills, in control of a child who could tame wild beasts.

In a moment, Pei Qinglin began to doubt Xiang Ying’s identity.

Such a formidable person, if he wanted to seek refuge in Shangjing City, would surely be eagerly welcomed by prestigious families.

Why risk his life to rescue the Princess just for an Acquittal Letter?

Unless their identities themselves could not be revealed.

Pei Qinglin concealed the suspicion in his eyes. freewebnσvel.cѳm

He asked: "Mr. Wang, your son is so clever, finding us was not difficult, but is there a better chance of finding those bandits?"

Xiang Ying looked towards Xiang Yuanlang, only to see the little one nod.

"I came to help you with this."

Otherwise, in these vast mountains, how long would they have had to search?

While talking, Xiang Yuanlang displayed an unusual maturity and calmness for a child.

Next, Xiang Yuanlang caressed the tiger’s head, whispering something in its ear.

Immediately, the three tigers stood up and dived into the bushes ahead.

Xiang Yuanlang waved his small hand: "Let’s go, they know where nearby there are human scents."
