Chapter 159 The Tiger with No Martial Ethics
Seeing Liu Yuling looking at the thatched cottage in a daze, the masked man couldn't help but feel a little irritated, and his tone became a little impatient:
"Xiaobai, what are you looking at? There are two buckets over there. Follow the path in front of you until you reach the middle of the mountain, and you will see a river. Go fill that big water jar with water for me first!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the masked man turned around gracefully and walked towards the rocking chair next to the thatched hut at a leisurely pace.
He sat down slowly, his whole body sinking into the rocking chair, then he closed his eyes leisurely and began to rest. It seemed that he had completely forgotten about the situation on Lucy Liu's side.
When Lucy Liu took a closer look, she was instantly overwhelmed by an overwhelming despair and could not help but lament:
"This is going to kill me!"
It turns out that this water tank is so huge that it is jaw-dropping. It is exactly the same as the giant water tank used to hold rainwater in the Forbidden City!
It stands tall there, looking like a guy showing off his power, as if provocatively saying: "Fill me up if you can."
At this moment, Lucy Liu was very upset and muttered to herself, "Humph, this guy is too bullying!"
But he didn't dare to openly disobey the masked man's orders. He could only grit his teeth, make a face at the masked man, and stick out his tongue mischievously to express his little dissatisfaction.
However, the masked man continued to speak slowly: "Xiao Bai, don't dawdle, act quickly! If you haven't completed the task by sunset, don't blame me for being rude to you. By then, hehe..."
At the end of his words, the masked man let out a spine-chilling, hair-raising sneer that echoed in the air like a call from hell.
After hearing this, Lucy Liu couldn't help but curl her lips and muttered to herself, "It's just some threatening words. It's nothing more than saying that if you don't finish your work, you won't get any food."
Although she was somewhat reluctant, she still walked obediently to the bucket, picked up the load, and walked down the mountain along the path.
Along the way, she kept complaining like a nagging woman, mumbling:
"Oh, my brain must have been hit by the door. Why did I have to learn martial arts for no reason? This is just asking for trouble!"
Not long after, Liu Yuling saw a river in the distance. Although the river was not deep, the water was as clear as crystal, and she could clearly see the small fish playing happily in the river.
Her playful nature was instantly aroused, and she completely forgot everything the masked man had said before.
Lucy Liu moved as swiftly as a monkey. She quickly took off her shoes, rolled up her trouser legs neatly, and stepped into the river barefoot impatiently.
At this moment, the fish in the river seemed to have understood human nature, and they gathered around and kissed Lucy Liu's feet intimately. Some of the fish even kissed Lucy Liu's ticklish spots, making her giggle. The laughter was crisp and pleasant, like a string of silver bells swaying in the wind. The cold river water was like a good medicine, which instantly dissipated Lucy Liu's extremely depressed mood.
However, this happiness was as short-lived as fireworks and did not last long. She accidentally saw a slender object in the water, swimming at lightning speed. Liu Yuling's heart trembled and she quickly took a closer look.
Oh my god! It turned out to be a water snake spitting out its tongue!
She was instantly frightened, her whole face turned pale as if she had been struck by lightning. She jumped out of the water in a panic, put on her shoes in a hurry, grabbed two buckets, hurriedly drew half a bucket of water from the river, picked up the load and rushed back along the way she came like a wild horse.
On the way back, Liu Yuling felt that the bucket on her shoulders was like a thousand-pound burden, extremely heavy. She couldn't help but wonder:
"It's only half a bucket of water! How can it be so heavy? Your shoulders must have turned red from being pressed by the pole."
Despite this, Lucy Liu had no choice but to walk forward with heavy steps. Every step she took made her feel extremely tired. In this way, she finally returned to the dilapidated thatched house.
She carefully poured half a bucket of water into the large water tank. She was already panting with exhaustion, and a layer of fine beads of sweat appeared on her head. She wiped the sweat from her forehead with her hand and looked at the masked man with a tired look.
I saw the masked man lying leisurely in the rocking chair with his eyes closed, as if he was enjoying the quiet time. He looked so comfortable.
Seeing the masked man so relaxed and at ease, Liu Yuling could not help but feel angry and gnashed her teeth. Then she looked at herself, sweaty and miserable. However, she could neither resist nor escape. In desperation, she could only silently carry the pole and go down the mountain to fetch water.
Liu Yuling went back and forth several times like this. She felt that her legs were no longer like her own, and her waist and back ached.
She dragged her exhausted body and struggled to carry the pole down the mountain again. She was so tired that she sat down next to a big tree on the side of the road, as if all the strength in her body had been drained.
Lucy Liu weakly threw the bucket aside, her body slowly slid down the tree trunk, and finally fell asleep leaning against the tree without realizing it.
After an unknown amount of time, Lucy Liu slowly opened her eyes. She was surprised to find that the sky had completely darkened, and there was silence all around, with only the faint light of the stars shining on the earth.
Damn, time flies by so fast! Filling the tank with water now seems impossible. I can't complete the task anyway, so I might as well go back with the empty bucket.
Thinking of this, Lucy Liu stretched out lazily with great helplessness. The movement seemed to stretch all the muscles and bones in her body, trying to relieve the fatigue that was about to fall apart.
Then, she gritted her teeth, picked up the empty bucket, and walked back up the mountain with heavy steps that felt like they were filled with lead. The mountain road was gloomy and scary at night, and it was particularly difficult to walk. Lucy Liu had to be extremely alert and groped forward carefully, taking every step with trepidation.
When Lucy Liu finally reached the thatched hut, the masked man, who had kept his eyes closed, suddenly opened his eyes. At that moment, two cold rays of light seemed to shoot out.
"Xiaobai, you didn't complete the task today." The masked man's voice came as calm as water, but there seemed to be surging waves hidden in it, containing a chilling hint of danger.
Hearing this, Lucy Liu instantly became furious. She glared at him, threw down the bucket in her hand, and said like a spoiled child:
"I've worked so hard to get some water out of such a big tank. What else do you want? I've tried my best, okay?"
The masked man stood up slowly from the rocking chair, holding a thick rope in his hand, with a creepy and weird smile on his face, and then he spoke slowly and unhurriedly:
"If you fail to complete the task, you will naturally be punished..."
Before he finished speaking, he swung his arm swiftly, and the rope in his hand flew out like an extremely agile snake and accurately caught Liu Yuling.
Then, a powerful force like a tidal wave came from the rope, and Lucy Liu felt as if she was grabbed by an invisible giant hand, and she instantly flew into the air. After she spun several times in the air, the rope seemed to have a mysterious magical power and automatically loosened from her body.
However, due to the strong effect of inertia, Lucy Liu did not stop, but continued to run in one direction like an arrow.
Finally, with a loud bang, she fell into a large tree with lush branches and leaves.
This series of changes made Lucy Liu dizzy. When she finally figured out what was going on, she found herself on the branch of a big tree. She angrily beat the branch and yelled in the direction she came from:
"I will definitely come back!"
The roar echoed wildly in the air, filled with resentment and anger, as if it was going to shatter the entire world.
However, the accident happened suddenly without any warning!
Because Lucy Liu hit the branch with all her might, the already fragile branch could no longer withstand such a huge force. There was a terrifying crisp "creak" sound, and the branch broke instantly.
Poor Lucy Liu was caught off guard and fell straight down from the branch, landing heavily on the ground like a heavy stone.
At this moment, Lucy Liu looked extremely embarrassed, covered in dust and leaves. But the difficulties she faced were far more than that, and the real huge danger was approaching her step by step silently.
Just when Lucy Liu vaguely sensed some unusual movement behind her, she instinctively turned her head quickly. In an instant, she was horrified to find that a huge, mighty tiger was pouncing towards her with bared fangs and claws, with great momentum.
The tiger is huge, with fur of an eye-catching golden hue dotted with deep black stripes, exuding a suffocating sense of oppression.
Faced with such a dangerous situation, Lucy Liu quickly got up from the ground, then used all her strength to run at lightning speed.
However, this extremely ferocious tiger was chasing closely behind, showing no signs of relaxing.
Although Lucy Liu desperately escaped along the winding path back to the thatched hut and ran all the way to the masked man, the tiger still held on to her tightly, completely ignoring the masked man and only focused on chasing Lucy Liu.
In this way, the man and the tiger started a terrifying chase around the masked man. The scene was like a whirlpool in a strong wind, chaotic and thrilling.
In the end, Lucy Liu was so exhausted that her body seemed to fall apart. She collapsed to the ground, raising a cloud of dust.
Do whatever you want. I don’t believe that you, a pervert, will watch me get bitten to death by a tiger!
However, the tiger showed no mercy and pounced on Lucy Liu, opening its horrifying bloody mouth. The saliva in its mouth poured down like a raging waterfall, and even a drop fell on Lucy Liu's face. The sticky feeling made her almost vomit.
Damn, this pervert really doesn't want to help someone in need!
At this moment, Lucy Liu's heart was filled with despair and fear. She shouted at the top of her lungs:
"Master, please save me!"
The masked man heard Liu Yuling's cry, and the corners of his mouth curled up slightly, revealing a barely perceptible smile. He slowly opened his mouth and said:
"Okay, Da Huang, stop making trouble."
As soon as the voice fell, the tiger seemed to completely understand what the masked man said, and stood up from Liu Yuling's body. Then, it turned around and instantly turned into a docile cat, swaying and slowly walking towards the masked man.
However, when the tiger was leaving, it actually did something provocative and urinated next to Lucy Liu.
Oh my god, this tiger is so unethical! This is simply a loss of "tiger morality"!
