The two of them had no weapons in hand. When the tiger came in front of them, they could only use their fists to hit it.
Although this could prevent the tiger from hurting people, it was unable to kill it with one blow.
The tiger's body was hit hard several times. Feeling the pain, it dodged back.
The brothers could see the direction the tiger escaped was somewhat strange.
Before the sky had completely darkened, they went to check that direction.
There was a marsh not very big over there. Those without lightness kungfu would not be able to pass through it at all.
With the sensitivity of a beast, even when escaping, it would not go to such a place.
There were two possibilities. First, the Eldest Brother and Second Brother had beaten the tiger silly and it lost its judgment.
Second, the marsh was not as simple as it looked.
Mo Jiuye chased out first, while reminding the elder brothers.
"Let's follow and take a look."
The brothers followed closely behind the tiger.
Mo Jiuye was the fastest. When he had just chased to the front of the marsh, he saw the huge figure of the tiger disappear swiftly.
Moreover, the way it disappeared was very bizarre. It sank into the marsh in a blink of an eye.
This was completely different from what the brothers knew.
Normally, no matter if it was human or animal, they would sink slowly into the marsh. But that tiger disappeared instantly.
The brothers looked at each other.
The Eldest Brother walked forward a few steps and said, "This marsh is not simple. Let me step on it and try."
Seeing that the Eldest Brother had already taken a step forward, Mo Jiuye quickly stopped him, "Don't."
The Eldest Brother was stopped by Mo Jiuye and felt somewhat puzzled, "Ninth Younger Brother, aren't you feeling strange that the tiger just disappeared like this?"
Strange?
Of course it was strange.
But Mo Jiuye did not want his brothers to take risks.
Sixth elder brother had gotten used to listening to Ninth Younger Brother's arrangements recently. Seeing that Eldest Brother was a bit disobedient, he quickly came over to help stop him together with Mo Jiuye.
Mo Jiuye did not explain too much. While Sixth elder brother was helping to stop Eldest Brother, he picked up a stone on the ground that was a little bigger than a fist.
He threw the stone into the marsh. Through the light of the torch, they could see the stone disappear quickly without making any sound.
The brothers were shocked again.
"Ninth Younger Brother, this should not be a marsh." Sixth elder brother said.
This was the same judgment of the brothers. Compared to the tiger, the stone was much lighter.
If it could be explained that the heavy tiger sank quickly, how could a stone also disappear so fast?
Mo Jiuye frowned and thought for a long time before speaking, "I suspect this is just a marsh-shaped barrier. The inside is empty."
As soon as he finished speaking, the brothers heard the tiger's roar coming out again.
And they could clearly distinguish that the sound came from under this marsh.
With this, Mo Jiuye became even more certain of his guess.
The tiger had fallen into this marsh and it had been almost half a stick of incense. It should have suffocated and died already.
But listening to its voice, there was no feeling of suffocation or weakness at all.
Mo Jiuye handed the torch to Sixth elder brother, "I'll go down first to take a look. Don't take any rash actions before you hear from me."
He knew that if he did not act unexpectedly, he would definitely be stopped by the elder brothers. Therefore, as soon as he finished speaking, Mo Jiuye had already jumped into the marsh.
At the same time, several anxious voices came from behind his head.
"Don't."
"Let Eldest Brother go, Ninth Younger Brother."
"Don't be reckless, Ninth Younger Brother."
"Ninth Younger Brother..."
Speaking was not as fast as taking action. While Mo Jiuye was listening to these calls, his body had already sunk into the marsh and he stood firmly on the hard ground.
The place that should have been pitch black had dim lights.
Mo Jiuye could determine that the lights were from oil lamps, which meant there should be people here.
Without thinking too much, because the startled tiger he saw in front of him was glaring ferociously at him, already posing to attack.
Mo Jiuye knew clearly that in order to find out the situation here, he had to deal with this tiger first.
So he raised his dagger, aimed at the tiger's throat and stabbed down.
If it was an ordinary person, the small dagger would not pose much threat to the tiger even if it stabbed down.
But what kind of person was Mo Jiuye? He was the War God praised by the people of Great Shun. If he made a move, how could the tiger possibly have any hope of surviving?
The dagger stabbed right at the tiger's throat accurately. The tiger only struggled for a bit before dying.
Mo Jiuye pulled out the dagger and wiped the blood clean on the tiger's fur before observing the surroundings.
When he had just jumped into the marsh earlier, he had felt his body descend at least three zhang.
From this it could be determined that his current location was like an underground cellar.
Although there were lights here, it was very dim. Mo Jiuye simply took out his flashlight.
He first shone it upwards.
The top was very different. Through the light of the flashlight, he could clearly see it swaying slightly, and it looked no different from the marsh seen from outside.
He could not discern what this thing was exactly, but he could confirm that it had penetrability. This was how he had entered, and it did not seem to be damaged.
Just now when the tiger entered the cellar and made sounds, it could be transmitted outside. This showed that there was no sound insulation here.
In order not to worry the elder brothers outside, Mo Jiuye shouted loudly, "Elder brothers, I have entered safely. It is very safe now."
He had thought it was just to report his safety, but soon after his words fell, the figures of the elder brothers appeared around him one after another.
Eldest Brother was the first to jump down. Hearing Ninth Younger Brother's voice, he determined that he could enter just by jumping into the marsh.
Right after was Sixth elder brother and Second Brother, appearing almost at the same time in front of him.
"Ninth Younger Brother, did you find anything?" Eldest Brother asked first.
Mo Jiuye had just killed the tiger and observed the top of the cellar, then reported his safety to the elder brothers. He had not had the chance to check out more.
"I haven't had the chance to check yet."
Hearing the Ninth Younger Brother say this, the elder brothers very cooperatively separated into the four directions and started examining around respectively.
Mo Jiuye did not stay idle either. With the elder brothers around, he could only put away the flashlight temporarily and check the surroundings relying on the light of the oil lamps.
He estimated that the four sides of the cellar were ordinary stone walls, but none of them would believe there were no other passages here.
The builder would not boredly create such a mysterious square pit.
Although the brothers had not discovered anything yet, they were not discouraged.
They continued groping the walls to check them thoroughly.
