Chapter 106 Playing with tigers on the river beach!
The owner of the pair of eyes glowing green against the backdrop of the bonfire on the riverbank is a tiger more than two meters long, with an orange-yellow base, black stripes all over its body, and snow-white belly, chin, and cheeks!
Chen Jue had not expected that after practicing the Golden Bell Tiger Roar on the riverbank and making a tiger roar by using his voice to practice, he could actually lure a tiger out from the deep mountains and forests!
However, this tiger was somewhat different from the tiger he had imagined. Although there was a "king" character formed by black lines on its forehead, it was much worse than the tigers he had seen in the zoo before.
Other than that, the wild tiger's head is much rounder, the orange is darker, and the black stripes are narrower.
In fact, what Chen Jue didn't know was that this was an extremely rare Indochinese tiger, also known as the Corbett tiger. It was a subspecies of tiger and its number was scarce. It was mainly distributed in other countries outside the southwestern border. Although traces of this Indochinese tiger had been found in the southwestern region of China, it had become very rare in recent years and was considered a world-class endangered protected animal.
The man and the tiger looked at each other in the light of the campfire. Chen Jue's courage has grown since his practice. When he was at the Chencun Reservoir, he once kicked a wild boar weighing more than 300 kilograms away.
Facing such a wild tiger, I didn't feel scared, but rather a little excited.
As mentioned earlier, Chen Jue's nickname in college was Ah Mao. His favorite animals were the fat stray cats on campus. He even bought cat food online and fed a few big orange cats. He found it a wonderful feeling to pet cats.
I've seen on the Internet before that the tycoons in the Middle East who dig for oil, and the Russians in the bear country to the north all like to raise large beasts such as tigers. The pleasure of petting a big cat with your own hands can make Chen Jue feel itchy even through the video, and he has long wanted to try it himself!
Therefore, after seeing this wild tiger, Chen Jue's first thought was not to turn around and run away like an ordinary person, but to look directly at the other party and make a tiger-like roar to attract the other party.
The big tiger, with half of its body crawling in the grass, also opened its mouth and roared twice after seeing Chen Jue, a strange human, making a similar tiger roar.
As the saying goes, there is no room for two tigers in one mountain!
This rare wild tiger probably mistook the roar made by Chen Jue during his previous practice for another tiger invading its territory, so it followed the sound came here.
It was only because of its instinctive fear of fire that the wild tiger slowly emerged from the jungle step by step, its body slightly in a semi-crawling state, its tail with black stripes drooping stiffly, ready to pounce at any time.
Chen Jue's heart was pounding. He took off his newly bought windbreaker and threw it on the pebbles, revealing the black sports vest underneath. He took a step forward and moved towards the tiger that was dozens of meters away.
If you look closely, you will find that Chen Jue's muscles are trembling slightly, his hands are hanging down, and he walks leisurely. He seems to be loose and full of flaws, but he is highly concentrated and is in a critical state ready to explode at any time.
Just when the man and the tiger were less than 20 meters away, the adult tiger in front of them, which was more than two meters long, couldn't hold on any longer!
I saw its drooping tail suddenly stand up, its fur stood up, and a muffled sound like thunder came from its body. This is the so-called tiger bone thunder sound. Once it erupts, it has extremely powerful force. It pounced over ten meters away in an instant and stretched out a pair of front paws to slap over.
Chen Jue felt a gust of evil wind blowing towards him, and his hair stood on end, his bones trembled, and thunderous sounds came out of his body!
This is the realm of "thunderous attack" as described in the boxing classics. It is a strange sound that can only be produced after martial arts is practiced to the point of changing bones and marrow.
In ancient times, it was common to hear that there were Taoist masters who were invited by the emperor to the palace to demonstrate their skills in making thunder sounds, and then they would be bestowed with titles such as the True Man of Imperial Thunder, the Master of the Five Thunders, etc. This was a case similar to that of Chen Jue.
However, the only difference between Chen Jue and those ancient masters who could use thunder sounds is that he has greater strength, a stronger physique, and the thunder sounds he can produce are several times more powerful!
However, this time, he did not choose to confront the big tiger head-on. Instead, he considered that the other party was a rare protected animal and did not want to hurt it. He used the "Picking Flowers and Catching Butterflies" skill to move his body, almost sticking to the opponent, and avoided the tiger's first flying attack.
You should know that an adult tiger can reach a maximum speed of more than 60 kilometers per hour when running at full speed, which is equivalent to flying nearly 20 meters in one second, more than twice as fast as the world's fastest record in the 100-meter sprint.
The distance of more than ten meters can be covered in just one second for the adult tiger in front of him!
If Chen Jue had not reached 2.30 with great agility and swiftness, and had not been blessed with the two physical states of [Butterfly Playing in Flowers] and [As Light as a Swallow], which gave him superhuman reaction speed, he would have been slapped in the face by the big tiger as soon as they met!
The big tiger failed in its pounce and when it landed it scattered a lot of small pebbles on the river beach. The stones flew and made a rustling sound. It kept roaring, turned around and swung its claws again. Chen Jue observed the opponent's movement posture and predicted his moves while retreating rapidly. He kicked his legs and moved several meters away from the opponent on the pebbled shallow river bank, avoiding the second blow of the evil wind again.
Seeing that it had failed twice, the wild tiger became a little angry and turned around. It then puffed up its fur and exerted force for the third time. With a kick of its hind legs, the pebbles under its paws were actually kicked up and flew all over the ground. This was enough to show how terrifying this third push was.
Chen Jue knew that the opponent's strength was about to decline. As the saying goes, the first attack is strong, the second is weak, and the third is exhausted!
Even if it was a ferocious beast lurking in the mountains and forests, if it burst out with all its strength three times in such a short period of time, it would be hoarse and its strength would be declining.
She dodged the tiger's third pounce with a flick of her body, like a butterfly playing among flowers.
It was just like the white-browed tiger with hanging eyes that Wu Song, the hero in the Water Margin, encountered on Jingyang Ridge. It pounced, lifted, and cut back and forth, and it wilted after three moves.
Sure enough, after the third ferocious pounce, the wild tiger began to half-fall on the ground and gasp for breath. The hot steam from its mouth condensed into white smoke in the cold night. Its pair of green eyes, set against the campfire, seemed to have black question marks on them, expressing confusion, doubt, and suspicion of the tiger's life. It stared at Chen Jue.
"There's no other way!"
Chen Jue said with a smile, and turned to walk towards the campfire. He planned to pick up some leftover fish heads and bones from the night before to feed the big tiger and get closer to it.
In Chen Jue's eyes, this tiger is just a big cat. They are all cats anyway, and no matter big or small, they will like to eat some fish.
But when he turned around, his back was exposed to the tiger lying on the ground gasping for breath. When encountering such a wild beast in the wild, it is best to look directly at it or lie down and pretend to be dead.
If someone as skilled and bold as Chen Jue exposed his back to the other party, he would definitely be courting death.
“Ouch!”
The tiger, which was originally exhausted, took a breath again, and pounced on the beach as fast as orange lightning, and its two thick claws grabbed Chen Jue's back.
Naturally, Chen Jue sensed the opponent's movements. All his pores closed, his skin trembled, and thunder rumbled in his body. He used Paida, Henglian Thirteen Guardians, and Tiger Roaring Golden Bell at the same time. His skin instantly turned dark blue, and goose bumps appeared like iron beans. He turned around and reached out with his hands clenched into claws, and also used Tiger Claw.
With a dull "puff" sound, Chen Jue grabbed the opponent's two pairs of thick and heavy tiger claws with both hands. Chen Jue's feet were hit by the tiger's full force, and his ankles were directly sunk into the scattering pebbles and yellow and white gravel of the river beach.
The man and the tiger were both fighting with tiger claws, one was a fake tiger claw and the other was a real tiger claw. It was really like Li Kui meeting Li Gui. The scene was a bit absurd and funny just thinking about it.
When the other party's extremely sharp nails, like hooks, hooked the skin on the back of Chen Jue's hand, they did not penetrate into it. Instead, it was like grabbing a piece of stubborn stone, leaving a few faint white marks on Chen Jue's hand!
With the help of [Shaolin Bronze Man], [Gestapo] and [Golden Needle and Iron Fingers], Chen Jue's hands were as hard as iron and could even penetrate the rock wall. Naturally, he could easily resist the claws of the tiger's sharp claws.
“The pads feel good!”
"Just a little naughty!"
Chen Jue, on the other hand, didn't care and made a few joking comments. He pinched the opponent's furry palm with the force of tiger claw skill, and then used the shaking force of Tai Chi. Before the big tiger's sharp teeth closed, he shook his arms suddenly, shaking off the last bit of the opponent's strength.
Then he took advantage of the momentum and swung it several meters away, and it fell steadily on the pebbles in the shallows.
