Chapter 316 1 False Alarm
Chapter 316 1 False Alarm
"One, two, three... Holy crap? How come there are so many?"
Cang Nian, who had originally planned to count how many tigers there were, suddenly went numb.
The entire cliff face was densely packed with tigers of all sizes; at a glance, there were at least a hundred of them!
This caused Cang Nian's brain to freeze instantly.
Where did all these tigers come from?
Moreover, they seem to live in groups, with no hostility between them, as if they were one family!
Tigers are solitary animals. When two or more tigers are seen meeting in the wild, there are generally three possibilities.
The first scenario is during the tiger's mating season, when male and female tigers gather to mate and produce offspring.
The second scenario involves a tigress with her cubs.
The third scenario involves tigers fighting over territory.
Unlike other families, such as the Cang Nian family, because of ample food and the good relationship between the tiger parents, the whole family stays together.
But no matter which possibility it is, it is impossible for hundreds of tigers to gather together in this way, not only living in peace but also united as one.
"Perhaps among these tigers, there is a top tiger king who is capable of suppressing all the tigers."
After subduing all the tigers, they formed this kind of gregarious group..."
Looking at the astonishing number of tigers, Cangnian's expression also became solemn.
This means that there is a very powerful one among this group of tigers!
So his eyes darted back and forth across the densely packed tigers, trying to find the tiger king.
His method of judgment is, naturally, body shape.
The larger the body size, the higher the evolutionary level, and the stronger the combat power without considering special abilities and physical talents.
After looking at it twice, Cang Nian's expression grew increasingly solemn.
These tigers are really strong!
If we categorize them by size, there are actually three tigers that are about the same size as the tiger dad!
There were also five that were slightly smaller than Tiger Dad!
Considering that female tigers are significantly smaller than male tigers, there are likely more than two people of the third rank among this group of tigers!
With his gaze fixed on the three giant tigers, each the size of Tiger Dad, Cangnian tried to find the Tiger King he had envisioned.
"Xiao Liu! Bring out all the cannons and prepare to engage the enemy!"
At this moment, following the gaze of Cang Nian's family, Qin Changyi also saw the densely packed tigers on the distant cliff. He was immediately startled and shouted.
"Yes!"
Upon hearing Qin Changyi's instructions, Xiao Liu excitedly shouted.
Although they are all tigers, they are not the same to humans.
The mountain god protects people, while ferocious beasts devour them!
Moreover, since they acquired regular army guns and cannons, they have never actually used them against the enemy.
Now is the time to put them to use!
"Stop! Stop! Wait a minute! Wait a minute!"
Just as tensions were rising, a loud shout suddenly rang out from the distant cliff.
Then, Cangnian saw a person squeeze out from among the densely packed tigers on the distant cliff.
He squeezed through a group of tigers, and due to inertia, he almost fell off the cliff, but the tiger behind him reacted quickly and gently scooped him up with its claws.
"Director Qin! Don't fire! They're on our side!"
We are from the Northeast Tiger Forest Park of Xuanlong Prefecture!
These little brats are just playing around! They won't hurt anyone!
The man steadied himself, still shaken, then put his hands in front of his mouth, making a megaphone shape, and shouted in a distinctly Northeastern accent.
After saying that, he turned around and raised his hand to hit the heads of those big guys behind him.
As a result, those tigers, whose claws were bigger than his head, looked like children who had made a mistake in front of him, shrinking their heads and retreating repeatedly.
Now, not only Cangnian's family, but also Qin Changyi and the others were dumbfounded.
……
"Hahaha! Director Qin, my name is Chen Hu, and I am a zookeeper at the Northeast Tiger Forest Park in Xuanlong Prefecture."
These are all tigers from our park.
This is Big Rice Bun, this is Confused, this is Dirty...
No, no, I've gone off-topic.
We are survivors from Xuanlong Prefecture, mainly from Bingcheng.
There are now about a million people.
We arrived at the 79th Group Army camp just a few days ago.
After hearing about your deeds from Commander Cheng, we are filled with admiration for you!
In addition, we were also planning to head south to escape the cold, thinking that this area was Korean territory.
We're all from the Dragon Kingdom, so I caught up to see if we could travel together, so we can look out for each other.
After everyone sat down, the man who had just walked out from a group of tigers shook hands with Qin Changyi very warmly.
"I see... The traces left by the migration of hundreds of thousands of people on our side are crystal clear."
They can easily find their way by following the clues.
However... I want to come along..."
After listening to Chen Hu's explanation of their situation, Cang Nian suddenly understood, and then hesitated.
To be honest, our own strength is sufficient to handle most dangers, and we don't need any so-called backup.
On the contrary, the opponent has hundreds of tigers, including many of them at the third rank, which together pose a threat.
However, upon seeing the guns and ammunition they carried, Cang Nian became hesitant.
Judging from the situation, their weapons were also a gift from Commander Cheng.
Given Commander Cheng's discerning eye and the experiences he had with the 79th Group Army, he wouldn't have readily provided weapons and ammunition unless he was a trustworthy person.
"Whether or not to act with you is a decision I cannot make alone."
We need to discuss this with everyone.
However, I remember that Harbin has a population of nearly ten million, so how come...
Qin Changyi, naturally, would not lower his guard against Chen Hu and the others from Xuanlong Prefecture simply because they were both from the Dragon Kingdom, and answered them very politely.
Finally, he raised a question.
"Well... hey, it's just that our Ice City is unlucky."
That night, the earthquake created a crack in the main urban area.
With a single opening and closing, wow, a large number of them died, with absolutely no chance of rescue.
In that instant, more than half of them died.
Eventually, only two million people remained.
Our Xuanlong Prefecture is located in the northernmost part of the Dragon Kingdom, having migrated over a thousand kilometers away.
In the freezing cold, those with weaker constitutions couldn't make it through.
We, the evolved beings, are incompetent; less than one in ten out of ten million survived. We have let down our fellow countrymen.
Upon hearing Qin Changyi's question, Chen Hu's cheerful smile froze, and he sighed.
"I'm sorry... please accept my condolences."
Hearing this, Qin Changyi's mood also became heavy, and he said in a deep voice.
"It's alright, the past is the past. We who are alive are just continuing to live on for the dead."
Enough of that. Is this the mountain god who saved Commander Cheng and his men?
"These bastards on my side have been wanting to see this mountain god for a long time!"
Chen Hu licked his lips, smiled with relief, and then looked at Cang Nian and asked.
