Chapter 121 A Giant, Eye-Catching Tiger, a Vibrant Speckled Tiger! (A new month, please vote with your monthly tickets!)

If it were special supplies, Chen Zhan thought carefully, what kind of important supplies could it be at this time?

He was skeptical of the idea that it was simply about weapons and ammunition.

But whatever it is, whether there are any good results or not, let's give it a shot first.

“Our explosives are old-fashioned fuse explosives, we need someone to light them.” Ye Ningzhen knew what Chen Zhan was going to do just by looking at his expression.

"It's alright, get everything set up. I'll take care of it, and you guys can leave in advance." Chen Zhan naturally wanted to do this kind of thing himself.

"I'll support you from afar," Ye Ningzhen said, still worried.

Chen Zhan nodded, thought for a moment, and the group communicated the fireworks signals and hand signals, then followed instructions.

"Shall we go set it up now?" Li Yao and Bai Wu asked excitedly, they couldn't wait any longer.

"No, the Japanese will definitely clean the railway to eliminate potential hazards before transporting important supplies, and there will be advance trains to check for dangers. We have to wait until the last day."

"How do you know all this?" Sister Hua asked Chen Zhan.

"Experience; I've observed this before."

He gave a perfunctory answer, which cannot be considered as experience from later generations.

The group carried a lot of dry food and water with them on the way, and despite the freezing weather, they remained in ambush in the forest for two whole days.

They took turns on guard duty. This place was two or three miles away from the tracks, and the forest was deep, connecting to a mountain range. Even the Japanese soldiers couldn't reach this side when they were checking the tracks.

In the middle of the night, Li Yao and Bai Wu were awakened.

"roar~"

It wasn't a Japanese person, but a tiger's roar!
Tonight is almost the appointed time, and the Japanese could set off at any moment. Chen Zhan went to keep watch in the distance, using fireworks as a signal.

The tiger's roar startled Bai Wu so much that he rolled off the carriage.

Ye Ningzhen and Sister Hua had already woken up and were staring straight ahead, motionless.

A fierce tiger with piercing eyes!
A real tiger is taller than a standing man, nearly ten feet long, and has a fierce look in its eyes.

This forest is quite close to the town, so tigers should rarely come down from the mountain.

But even tigers lack food in winter.

In fact, with guns in hand, Ye Ningzhen, a sharpshooter, was not afraid at all. No matter how fierce she was, she couldn't withstand gunfire.

Carbon-based bio-cooler, I'm not kidding.

However, the men dared not fire their guns easily, as Japanese soldiers were patrolling the railway tracks a few miles away, and firing a shot here would immediately attract a large force.

Five people confronted a large, piercing-eyed tiger.

Water dripped from the tiger's mouth, falling onto the ground and melting a small patch of snow.

I was starving.

However, it might recognize the dark object in the hands of a few people, which instantly created a bloody hole.

During the standoff, Bai Wu and Li Yao's fingers trembled.

Chen Zhan had instructed them not to fire, otherwise the two of them would have lost their temper long ago.

Fortunately, not long after, footsteps came from behind.

Chen Zhan is back.

"Don't shoot, I'll handle it."

Ye Ningzhen was prepared that if the giant worm charged at her, she would have to fight it with her dagger.

Chen Zhan moved with lightning speed, like a ghost in the snow, but the sound of him approaching the confrontation circle still made the snarling tiger suddenly change its target.

On its massive body, vertical pupils contracted in the darkness, gleaming with a cold, eerie light, revealing that Chen Zhan was not holding a black weapon.

His eyes followed Chen Zhan's every move.

"Whoosh~"

A pebble shot out and struck the top of the character "王" (Wang) with a thud, leaving a trace of blood.

Blood gushed from the forehead of the giant tiger, but it wasn't just a scratch; its skull was ridiculously hard.

"Roar!"

With a roar, a tiger leaps three zhang (approximately 10 meters). Its two- or three-meter-long body may seem clumsy, but it is truly the animal that combines strength and speed perfectly. In Xingyi Quan (a style of Chinese martial arts), the tiger form is indeed the most commonly used and widely circulated technique.

The key reason is "balance"—speed, power, and agility are all approaching perfection.

The tiger leaped, a true tiger-like pounce.

Chen Zhan had finally grasped the true meaning of the Tiger Form! He dodged to the side and retreated several meters.

The worm seemed somewhat surprised; the humans before it were completely different from those it had eaten.

Not only was he calm and quick, but his eyes also held an eager anticipation.

The human in front of them even beckoned, seemingly as a provocation.

"Roar!"

With a roar and a pounce, the tiger's forepaws slammed into the ground, sending the snow flying and revealing the dark brown soil beneath.

Chen Zhan dodged it again.

After two attacks, Chen Zhan roughly understood the strength and speed of the giant tiger in front of him.

Judging by speed and strength alone, he is roughly on par with top-tier internal strength masters, but in a real life-or-death struggle, someone with internal strength who is unarmed would undoubtedly die.

Tigers have the natural advantage of size and thick skin. With the same force, a single slap or punch can carry hundreds of kilograms of force, enough to break bones and tendons when it hits a person.

If you hit it, it will probably just stagger.

老虎0到6岁叫大猫，6到12岁叫斑斓，12岁到18岁叫大虫，18岁到24岁叫白额，24岁到30岁的公老虎便可以叫山君了。

Tigers rarely live to the age of a mountain king; those that live beyond that age are called "mysterious altars."

The altar is something that only appears in ghost stories.

The lifespan of an average tiger is almost never more than twenty years; a dozen years is considered a long life.

The tiger in front of him, with its piercing eyes, was at least ten years old, fully grown into its prime. It was a mature male tiger, its canine teeth bared from the corners of its mouth, gleaming coldly.

Chen Zhan had already tested it, and was no longer playing hide-and-seek with it. "Ningzhen, give me the dagger."

Ye Ningzhen flicked the dagger at her waist, and Chen Zhan reached out and grabbed it. He took a step through the mud, kicking up a patch of snow that flew towards the tiger. The tiger leaped through the snow and headed straight for Chen Zhan.

He dodged to the side, bent low to block, reversed his grip on the dagger, and ripped it!

"roar~"

A long gash was cut open in the abdomen of the large insect, and blood gushed out, melting a patch of snow with its hot blood.

Enraged, the giant insect leaped again, faster and closer, charging at the enemy like a mountain.

It raised its two front paws and pressed them down hard!
Chen Zhan intentionally tested his strength, holding a knife in his left hand, drawing a bow and nocking an arrow, using his body as the bow and his fist as the arrow.

He took a half-step to the side of the giant insect, and threw a punch—a half-step collapsing fist as fierce as a tiger.

"Oh!"

With a punch to the side, the several-hundred-pound worm was sent flying sideways by Chen Zhan, letting out a whimper as the bones in its waist cracked.

But that's about it.

Chen Zhan's punch was indeed not fully delivered; the tiger pounced too quickly, leaving no time for complete preparation. However, it still had over a thousand pounds of force, yet it failed to break the tiger's waist bones, at most causing internal organ damage.

The giant insect flew away, then stood up and stopped attacking. It realized that this human was too difficult to deal with, so it chose to retreat.

He stared at Chen Zhan, took a few steps back, and then turned and ran into the mountains.

It moved extremely fast, disappearing in the blink of an eye.

Chen Zhan didn't intend to chase after it. It was a tiger; killing it would only leave behind more harm, so there was no need.

"Are you alright?" Ye Ningzhen asked.

"It's alright, get ready. The people Sister Hua left behind in the city have given the signal; the train is about to depart."

Under the cover of night, they stealthily made their way to the vicinity of the railway tracks. It's impossible for someone to patrol the thousands of miles of tracks all the time. They had already checked it once before, and there was no one around at this moment.

Dig a pit and bury explosives.

It weighed about four or five hundred kilograms and was laid over a distance of more than one hundred meters.

We're just waiting for the bait to bite.
