chapter 12 tiger fighting hero

The tiger was shot in one leg and became even more frantic. He raised his right front paw as big as a cattail fan and slapped Greg Zhang.

Greg Zhang turned pale with fright, rolled on the spot, and rolled five or six meters down the hillside.

The tiger roared angrily, got up on its remaining three legs, and continued the pursuit.

Whoosh!

Another arrow flew and hit his left hind leg.

Both legs on the left side were pierced by arrows. The tiger immediately lost its balance and fell to the ground with a thud.

Even so, the tiger was still ferocious, with its two right legs flailing and digging two large holes in the ground.

The roar was deafening, frightening the village women's faces to the color of earth.

Abraham Jin held the crossbow twenty meters away and shot another arrow at the tiger's head.

Hit by an arrow in the head, the tiger gradually stopped struggling.

Regardless of his past life or this life, this is the first time Abraham Jin has faced a tiger.

He didn't realize it when he was so nervous just now. Now that the tiger was dead, Abraham Jin realized that his heart was beating like a drum, and his hands holding the crossbow were trembling.

Most of the women who had been shouting loudly just now were so frightened that their legs were weak and they sat on the ground shaking like chaff.

They were all fine, but Greg Zhang, who had wandered around the gate of the Palace of Hell, was in even worse condition. A large area of ​​his buttocks was wet, and he sat slumped on the ground shaking, his teeth chattering, and he was obviously frightened.

"My son!"

The Zhang family's wife ran over and dragged Greg Zhang aside, made sure her son was okay, knelt down on the ground with a bang, and kowtowed to Abraham Jin.

Even the old lady knelt down, and Lin Yunfang and her sister-in-law didn't dare to stand, so they quickly knelt down.

Abraham Jin was not used to the ancient people's ritual of kneeling down, especially when the other party was an old man. He quickly reached out to Zhang's wife and said, "Auntie, don't be like this. If you kowtow to me at such an old age, won't you shorten my life?"

"Brother Jin, this is a life-saving favor, you can bear it!"

The old lady of the Zhang family cried and said: "When I get back, I will build a monument of immortality for you and put it together with the ancestral tablets. I will keep it for you for the rest of your life!"

"I can't do it! I can't do it!"

Abraham Jin and the village chief who came over tried to persuade the Zhang family to get up.

When the women saw that the tiger had been shot, they bravely gathered around him.

In troubled times, everyone worships the strong.

No matter how Abraham Jin was in the village before, everyone looked at him differently now.

Abraham Jin killed the tiger and rescued Greg Zhang in front of them, making these women feel like they were dreaming.

But the tiger was lying nearby to remind them that this was not a dream.

"Jin... Abraham Jin, you are so powerful, you can kill such a big tiger by yourself!"

Fiona stared at Abraham Jin with bright eyes.

What girl is not pregnant? Abraham Jin has been studying since he was a child and has not been exposed to wind and rain. His appearance is naturally not comparable to that of other farm boys.

Not only Fiona eyes were bright, but other girls of the same age or women with girls at home also looked at Abraham Jin in the same way.

No girl was willing to marry before because she was afraid that she would starve to death if she married.

But now they see another side of Abraham Jin.

Even if you can kill a tiger, can you still not feed your family?

If you marry a tiger fighting hero, who in the village will dare to bully you?

The third aunt who took the lead in attacking Abraham Jin just now felt her face burning.

"Xiao... Xiaofeng, it was my fault just now..."

The third aunt took the initiative to apologize, but Abraham Jin didn't bother to behave like an old country woman. He waved his hand and said, "It's okay, aunt, it's all over."

"Yes, it's all over, don't mention it anymore."

The village chief patted Abraham Jin on the shoulder and laughed heartily: "Well done! Haha, we have a tiger-fighting hero in Xihe Bay. I don't think anyone will dare to underestimate us in the future!"

The surrounding Guanjiawan and Tianjiawan are clan villages with the same surname, while Xihe Bay is a poor group of people who came together due to war and famine. They come from all over the world and are naturally not as united as those clan villages, so Xihe Bay is often bullied by other villages.

Even if the horse bandits charge a regular fee, every family in Xihe Bay has to charge an extra two pounds of millet.

Now, Xihe Bay has a tiger-fighting hero. If other villages want to bully them, they have to think twice.

After all, every tiger-fighting hero is not a simple person. He is either a hero with superb skills or an old hunter who is good at making traps, neither of which is easy to mess with.

…

At the bottom of the mountain, Julianna Guan was worried all the time. After washing the dishes, she went out to find Abraham Jin.

As soon as I left the village, I heard a tiger roaring.

When he came back to his senses, he ignored his fear and ran towards the back hill like crazy.

It was already dark, and Abraham Jin was surrounded by people again. Julianna Guan looked around and couldn't find Abraham Jin's figure. She suddenly felt that all her strength had been drained, and she sat on the ground and shouted heartbreakingly: "The master! …”

"Here it is, here it is!"

Abraham Jin heard Julianna Guan's shout and quickly squeezed through the crowd: "Didn't I tell you to stay at home? Why are you here on the mountain?"

"Master, are you okay?"

Julianna Guan, who had always been shy, seemed not to notice the people around her. She got up and rushed to Abraham Jin side, hugging Abraham Jin's arm.

He was afraid that he would fly away if he let go.

"fine."

A warmth surged in Abraham Jin's heart: "It's just a tiger, I shot it to death with two arrows."

After saying that, he pulled Julianna Guan and pushed through the crowd, pointing proudly at the tiger on the ground.

Julianna Guan recognized at a glance that the half-remaining arrow stuck in the tiger's head was indeed Abraham Jin's.

It was only then that Julianna Guan realized that all the women around her were looking at her with ambiguous expressions.

He let go of Abraham Jin's arm, his pretty face flushed with embarrassment.

"From the Abraham Jin family, you are a great man. You will be blessed in the future."

The third aunt joked: "It's different when you get married. When you become a man, you can kill tigers."

"Auntie, please stop talking. Xiaorou is thin-skinned. If you make her cry later, I will have to coax her."

Abraham Jin noticed that Julianna Guan was so embarrassed that she almost buried her head in her clothes, so he smiled and protected her behind him.

"Yo yo yo, are you going to protect me now?"

"Abraham Jin family, why are you so embarrassed? Your boss killed the tiger, and we are all happy for you."

"I see you are jealous!"

"I'm just jealous. The tiger is worth a lot of money. If you send it to the county government, there will be a reward. Aren't you jealous?"

"The Abraham Jin family has such a good life."

Many women looked at Julianna Guan with deep envy in their eyes.

In this era, women's status is low, and men can hit and scold them whenever they want. There are very few people like Abraham Jin who protect their wives.

The most important thing is that Abraham Jin killed the tiger alone. Whether it is the money from selling the tiger or the government bounty, it belongs to him alone.

This is a lot of money. If you save some money, you won’t have to worry about it in the next few years or even ten years.

There is no mother-in-law to hold her head, the head of the house is a scholar, he knows how to care for people, and he got such a large sum of money all of a sudden...

It's strange that other women in the village don't envy Julianna Guan.
