At this moment, the five men turned back, dismounted, and were shocked to see the tiger on the ground.

"You actually managed to kill this tiger?"

"What's wrong with you guys? Five people were actually chased by a tiger? Aren't you ashamed?" Bei Chenyan's eyes were full of disdain.

A middle-aged man shook his head. "You two don't know this, but we just encountered a male and a female tiger. They were extremely fierce. None of us are skilled in martial arts, so we didn't dare to fight them."

"There's even a tiger?"

Both Nangong Wu and Bei Chenyan's eyes gleamed.

"Yes, it's in the canyon ahead," the other person said, still shaken, pointing ahead.

"Both tigers were extremely ferocious. Fortunately, we encountered you. Otherwise, we would probably be in grave danger today."

"Let's hurry, don't let it get away." Nangong Wu gave Bei Chenyan a rope. "Put the tiger on the horse's back, and we'll ride together."

"Okay." Bei Chenyan put the tiger on his horse.

"Excuse me, gentlemen, where are you going?" the middle-aged man asked them.

"The city is in front," Bei Chenyan replied while he was busy.

"That's great. Getting to Lincheng also requires crossing this mountain range. Can we travel with you?" the man asked.

"Where are you going?" Bei Chenyan asked them in return.

"We're heading back to Qingshan City, and we'll be traveling the same way as you. With you all here, we won't be afraid of that tigress," the man said.

Bei Chenyan glanced at Nangong Wu, and only after seeing her nod did he say, "Okay."

He tied up the tiger and rode a horse with Nangong Wu.

"drive!"

"Let's go too," the middle-aged man said to the four people behind him, and then mounted his horse and followed.

After the group had traveled about twenty li, the middle-aged man rode up alongside them.

"My two heroes, if we go two more miles ahead, we will reach the place where we encountered the tiger. Be careful."

"Oh no! Two huge insects have appeared here, and they've probably harmed countless passersby."

"Don't worry, Uncle. Even if ten more tigers come, we won't be afraid." Bei Chenyan said with a smug look on his face.

With such powerful weapons, they wouldn't be afraid of ten tigers, or even a hundred.

Seeing his confident demeanor, the five men were no longer so afraid.

After all, they had already killed the male tiger.

"Roar—" Suddenly another tiger's roar came.

"Hiss hiss hiss..."

The horses stopped and neighed uneasily.

"Giddy up!" Bei Chenyan lashed the horse's rump with the whip.

The horse, in pain, neighed and ran off.

They walked about half a mile further and saw a striped tiger standing in the middle of the road in the distance.

The horse was frightened and refused to move.

The middle-aged man's expression changed drastically. "Oh no, that tigress has actually come here."

"Everyone, step back a little," Bei Chenyan said to the people behind him.

"roar!"

Upon seeing them, the tigress roared and pounced on them.

"Let me handle this one." Bei Chenyan drew his Desert Eagle, wrapped his arms around her, pointed the gun at the charging tiger, and aimed the red dot sight.

"How's my marksmanship coming along?"

"Focus." Nangong Wu also held a pistol in her hand.

Because the horses beneath them were restless and stamping their hooves on the ground, she was afraid that he might miss his target.

Although the Desert Eagle has strong firepower and a precise range that far exceeds that of ordinary handguns, it is difficult to control and requires precise aiming to unleash its maximum power.

"With such a beauty in my arms, what am I supposed to do if I can't concentrate?" Bei Chenyan whispered in her ear, his warm breath brushing against her neck.

Nangong Wu gritted her teeth, "If I miss, I'll throw you to feed the tigers."

"Okay, hahaha..." Bei Chenyan chuckled.

Four zhang, three zhang, when the tiger was two zhang away from them, Bei Chenyan pulled the trigger.

"Bang!" A clear sound rang out.

"Thud!" The bullet struck the tiger precisely in the forehead.

Although the tiger was shot, it was propelled forward another ten feet due to inertia, and collapsed with a thud five feet away from them.

"Not bad." Nangong Wu mentally put the gun away.

Bei Chenyan was also satisfied with his marksmanship. "This Desert Eagle is really powerful, but the recoil is too great."

"Dead! The tiger has been killed!"

The five people exclaimed in surprise.

Bei Chenyan dismounted and then carried Nangong Wu down with him.

The middle-aged man dismounted, walked up to them, and bowed. "You two are truly skilled! You killed a tiger with just one hidden weapon."

They all saw him holding the thing he used to kill the tiger; it looked like a lump of iron.

The four people behind them also came up and bowed to express their gratitude.

"Thank you so much, heroes. Fortunately, you helped kill these two poisonous insects. Otherwise, who knows how many more people would have died? We probably wouldn't be able to travel this road anymore."

"No need to be so polite." Bei Chenyan was in a good mood and raised his hand to them. "It is my duty to rid the people of this scourge."

"Young master, if you don't have anything urgent, you can take these two tigers to the yamen to claim your reward," the middle-aged man suggested.

"Reward? How much silver can the government give for that tiger?" Nangong Wu asked curiously.

"One tiger is worth a thousand strings of cash, two tigers are worth two thousand strings of cash. Congratulations to you two, you've struck it rich!" the middle-aged man congratulated them.

A tiger is rewarded with a thousand strings of cash?

In the Western Yan Kingdom, one string of cash was equivalent to one tael of silver, and one thousand strings of cash was equivalent to one thousand taels of silver, which was considered reasonable.

A thousand taels of silver may not seem like much to the wealthy, but it is a fortune to ordinary people.

"A thousand strings of cash is a lot of money. We'll send it to the government office in a little while." Nangong Wu deliberately acted very happy.

Bei Chenyan immediately understood her meaning and said to the five people, "Gentlemen, we need to take the tiger to the government office to collect the reward. You can go ahead first."

After these people left, Nangong Wu was able to put the two tigers into the magic bag.

"Alright, then we'll be going now."

"I hope we'll meet again."

"Thank you so much for saving my life!"

The five men said goodbye to them.

Once these people had gone far away, Nangong Wu sent the two tigers into her spatial dimension.

"Should we send the tiger to the government office? Otherwise it will stink," Bei Chenyan asked her.

It's too hot; the tiger will spoil in just a few days.

"I have a magic bag, how could my things break?" Nangong Wu glanced at him.

Things stored in her space will never spoil. What were they like when they were put in? They will always be exactly the same as they were.

"Oh yeah! I forgot about it." Bei Chenyan patted his forehead. "Let's go then!"

Nangong Wu mounted the horse.

Bei Chenyan was taken aback. "Aren't we riding that two-wheeler anymore?"

"We'll talk about it after we get out of this mountain range." Nangong Wu flicked her riding whip.
