Chapter 74 - Did we did the wrong thing? (2/2)

“Okay then, all of the generals are further inside, follow me!!!” Liu Mang nodded and led them further in.

“Okay!!!” Those two sisters obviously cannot disobey Liu Mang, they just followed him further inside the cave.

As they followed him further they became stunned,

inside the cave was like another universe. From the top of the cave there was basin with a small opening illuminating this part of the cave.

Using the light, one can see the big tiger is lying on the ground. Is not this the big tiger the one that just wanted to harm everyone's life???

“Meow!!!” A small sound emanating from the abdomen area of that tiger, two little tiger cubs one golden one yellow, trying to suckle from their mother, their eyes have not yet opened.

This tiger is a tigress, one can see nipples from its abdomen.

“How is the tigress?!” Asked He Yue while holding her big sister's hand.

“It died!!” Replied Liu Mang before He Yu replied her sister.

“But!!!” He Yue wanted to say, that the tigress had such vigor when it left show could it possibly be dead?

“That was just a burst before it died!” Liu Mang answered. He pondered, did it put its last strength to return to this cave? For giving food to its cubs???

Those cubs whose two eyes have not yet opened and toothless, started walking slowly toward its mother anxiously tried to suckle, they did not know that their mother had died.

It is not the milk that those small tigers sucked but red liquid called blood.

The tigress had already exhausted its energy from giving birth to these two cubs, and after that she needed to hunt in order to have food to supplement its milk.

The mother pa.s.ses away while it curling up its body to protect these two cubs in her bosom.

“Are we in the wrong?!” Liu Mang started blaming himself. If not for them, this tigress would not have died, this small family wouldn't have broken apart and these two kids would still have a mother.

“We are not wrong!” Lu Bu then broke his silence and stood up “We are not wrong!!! What is wrong is this times, this chaotic times, changing people into beasts, making beast not have a place in this world. This chaotic times is ruled by the rule of the jungle, tiger eat people, and people kill tiger! If you do not kill it, then it is you are to be eaten, choose between these two!”

“I!!!” When Liu Mang started blaming himself, he suddenly thought of what Lu Bu said it is right. If they do not kill the tiger, they will be the ones eaten by the tiger. If they died, there are some people who will be sad right? If they died, would they not break their own family as well??

“Honorable Father-in-Law, I do not understand!!!” Confusion once again enveloped Liu Mang. Tigers will eat human to survive, humans will also kill tiger in order to survive. Both sides are not wrong. But no matter which side win, the result will always very sad.

“Slowly you will understand. Predator must always eat human. Have you ever seen cannibalism?!” Lu Bu said this afterwards “In the chaos of times and war, coupled with famine after prolonged wars makes so commoners do not live! Tree barks and gra.s.s has become last resort for food!” Lu Bu seemed to be telling real story, as if it is from his very own experience.

In his story, there is a young boy, he is very handsome, and he had very excellent eyebrows and delicate features on his face. But he is like a feral child.

TL: Guess whose story is the next chapter???

That year, invaders from Great Wall are plundering his village, that year was the beginning of the big chaos before Yellow Turban Rebellion begin, and that year he was six years old.

In his family, there was no grain left. Their only grain was robbed or I should say drafted to give food to those government soldiers who are guarding the border. That year, he is very very hungry. Because of hunger, his eyes were very dizzy. His father and mother already departed from starvation.

He remembered his father’s strong and stalwart appearance. The man partic.i.p.ated with the government troops, fighting those invaders who wanted to rob their house, we can say that man dedicated his life for Han Dynasty, but what has Han Dynasty given him? Only disability and an impoverished family

In the battlefield, when he was outnumbered, it did not make this him even wrinkle his brow. But now, because of hunger, this strong man bent down his back to hold his family from hunger.
