Chapter 237 Comeback
Jiang Lili saw a large creature pacing on the shore. Judging from its outline, it looked like a large cat, most likely a leopard, tiger or lion.
"Quick, quick, quick! Turn the boat around." Jiang Lili quickly lowered her voice and told the escort who was driving the boat, "There's a big guy on the shore."
Escort Master Ge was just about to maneuver the boat to turn, but at this moment, a strong wind blew up on the sea, and a raging wave came over and hit their boat, pushing their alloy boat directly to the edge of the beach and in front of this big guy!
"Mist grass!"
As the boat moved forward at high speed, Jiang Lili could see clearly at this moment that there was a tiger eight feet long and four feet wide at the shoulders on the beach. It was orange-yellow in color with dark stripes on its body.
Jiang Lili and his crew's boat was pushed over by the waves, which obviously scared the tiger on the beach!
"what--"
The tiger panted threateningly and glared at them fiercely.
Jiang Lili discovered that there was more than one tiger on the shore. There was another tiger hiding behind the grass. It was smaller than this tiger and might be a female.
There are very few tigers on the tropical islands in the modern world. Jiang Lili recalled the "Animal World" she had watched and judged that this might be the Javan tiger that has become extinct in modern times. Its nickname was "forest protector" and it could prey on creatures such as wolves and wild boars that pose a threat to human survival.
The alloy boat was equipped with a fire pole and two long swords for self-defense.
Xin Che raised the knife and turned his wrist. The aura around him suddenly became colder, and the ferocity in the phoenix's eyes was even more fierce than that of the two tigers.
The big cat in the lead sensed Xin Che's breath and stopped approaching the boat. It paced back and forth around their boat, making Jiang Lili nervous.
Is this a close-up experience that can be enjoyed without buying a ticket?
Jiang Lili held her breath and whispered, "This tiger is very rare. If we kill it, it might become extinct?"
Escort Ge had dealt with animal trainers before, and he recognized the species of this tiger. Animal trainers could tame this kind of tiger and were hired by many villages at the foot of the mountains to hunt ferocious hyenas and wild boars.
Escort Ge looked puzzled: "Miss Jiang, are you talking about Javan tigers? There are many Javan tigers on these islands in the South China Sea, but they are just ordinary tigers!"
Jiang Lili was startled. That was right. This was ancient times, and tigers were considered a nuisance. Ancient people hoped that there would be fewer tigers. She began to think about it, and whispered to Xin Che, "Help me divert the attention of the three escorts."
Xin Che immediately guessed what Jiang Lili was going to do, so he said to the three escorts, "There is one thing you need to be careful about when using this fire pole."
Upon hearing this, the three escorts immediately looked at the fire pole in Escort Cen's hand.
While they were turning around, Jiang Lili selected the two tigers, one male and one female, and put them into a red envelope.
As soon as the red envelope was sent to the group, Jiang Lili immediately left a message: [@江麗麗: Contains a tiger, please be careful when you receive it! Especially you! @燕朝越]
The northwestern grassland where Yan Chaoyue stayed was not suitable for tropical tigers like the Javan tiger to survive. It would be a sin if he was really teleported there.
It was late at night and there was no movement in the group.
Jiang Lili gave Yan Chaoyue another reminder in private, and only then did the mood calm down a little.
At this time, after Xin Che finished talking to the three bodyguards, they turned around and found that the tiger on the shore was gone.
"Hey, where are those two big guys!"
"Is he hiding and waiting to attack us when we get off the boat?"
The three bodyguards were unable to react for a moment when they discovered that the two big cats that posed a threat to their lives suddenly disappeared.
"I just saw them suddenly take a detour and go over there, as if they were chasing something."
Jiang Lili pointed in a random direction: "Let's get off the boat and rush to the camp first!"
After mooring the boat, the five people quickly left the beach. Jiang Lili followed the route map given by Guan Yue and the marks that Guan Yue and the others had made along the way. After walking in the mountains for half an hour, they arrived at the camp.
As night falls and the stars twinkle in the sky, tents of all sizes are scattered in the silent valley surrounded by mountains.
The patrolling soldiers were dressed in iron armor and armed with spears or bows and arrows, their shadows elongated by the moonlight.
They were very alert and immediately noticed someone approaching.
"who!"
Escort Master Cen quickly blew the whistle they used to meet at Guanjiazhai.
"Lao Cen?!"
The patrolling soldiers had received a notice from the leader of Guan Village that Miss Jiang, Prince Jiang, and Escort Master Cen would arrive at the camp at night, but they did not dare to let their guard down for fear that someone would take advantage of the situation and sneak in.
After confirming the other party's identity, the patrol team leader Cai Xing first told the remaining team members to continue patrolling, then walked over excitedly and said to Jiang Lili and Xin Che, "Prince, Princess, I will take you to the tent to rest first."
While leading the way, he excitedly said to the three escorts: "Lao Cen, Lao Ge, Lao Yuan, it's been a long time since we last met!"
Escort Master Cen had the excitement of meeting an old friend on his face: "We haven't seen each other for almost half a year since I was sent out on a mission by Village Chief Guan."
Because they were assigned to be with Jiang Lili and would be away for a long time, Guan Yue chose three villagers who had no family to worry about in the village.
The three bodyguards all came from Guanjiazhai and had a good relationship with Captain Cai.
Escort Master Cen looked at Captain Cai with satisfaction: "Old Cai, it's been such a long time since we last met. Your temper is almost as good as that of the centurions in the barracks."
Speaking of this topic, Captain Cai's expression suddenly became a little serious. He glanced at Xin Che secretly. That was all thanks to the devilish training that the prince gave them at sea.
Not only did it allow them to quickly overcome the problem of acclimatization at sea, but it also brought about a qualitative leap in their overall appearance.
The prince has just returned to the island, so there should be no rush to train them more in the morning!
Captain Cai led Jiang Lili and the others to the resting tent and said to them, "You must be exhausted. Take a rest first. We will talk about the past tomorrow!"
The five people were tired after traveling on the sea, so they went into their respective tents and fell into a deep sleep.
The moon sets and the stars sink, and the sky turns pale.
The next morning, when Jiang Lili woke up, she saw the group discussing what to do with the two Javan tigers.
[@张小胖: Li Li, these are really extinct animals! How about I put them in a cage, contact the Forestry Bureau, and hand this pair of tigers over to the state? ]
Jiang Lili's eyes lit up when she saw Zhang Xiaopang's proposal in the group.
【@江麗麗: This idea is feasible! 】
【@Guan Yue: Li Li, are you up?! Come on, I'm waiting for you to feed me breakfast! I've already sent Xiao Pang what I want to eat.】
After Guan Yue sent this message, she rushed into Jiang Lili's tent.
"You greedy girl!" Jiang Lili looked helplessly at Guan Yue who was wiping her saliva, "You've become the leader of the mountain bandits, but you look no different from when you were hiding under the desk eating spicy noodles!"
While the two were waiting for Xiaopang to feed them, Master Liao sent a message: [Li Li, do you remember the fishermen who stopped by our village to rest because of the storm? They are here again, saying that they are tired from fishing at sea and are looking for a shelter to eat and rest.]
