At this moment, the little girl's parents had also come running from behind.
They were extremely grateful to the Taoists and armed police for saving their child.
They insisted on getting the contact information and work units of the armed police to send a silk banner later as thanks.
But for the Taoists, there was no need for contact information, as everyone was an acquaintance.
Right then and there, the girl's parents said they would go to Qingyun Mountain every week to burn incense and fulfill their vows to thank the Taoist for saving their lives.
Taoist Jing Xuan just smiled and did not say much.
When it comes to burning incense and fulfilling vows, what counts is the sincerity in one's heart.
He, heeding the orders of the Heavenly Master to save people, did not seek any reward in return.
After resolving the situation here, there were other places waiting for him to address.
Taoist Jing Xuan bid farewell to the armed police and the little girl's parents, "Infinite Heavenly Venerable, esteemed laymen, it is best to leave this place of strife quickly. We, following the orders of the Heavenly Master, have come down the mountain to drive off the beasts and protect the villagers. As the tide of beasts has not yet subsided, we must leave first! Farewell!"
"Farewell!"
After Taoist Jing Xuan spoke, he and the other Taoists turned and left.
The armed police watched the Taoists who had come down the mountain to rescue them with admiration.
In peaceful times, they don't vie for attention, but in turbulent times, the old Taoists come to the aid of the people.
This is the responsibility of our Dragon Country's National Religion!
These are truly the esteemed masters of the Xuanmen Sect!
…
After Taoist Jing Xuan had dealt with a pack of jackals,
He took control of the jackal leader.
Under the leadership of the leader, the pack of jackals obediently lined up and left with several Taoists.
They had been subdued at this point.
They were so frightened that they developed a psychological shadow.
They did not have the courage to even make eye contact with Jing Xuan, much less disobey.
On the way, the pack of jackals was as docile as pet dogs, not daring to cross any boundaries.
Meanwhile,
On another path, a car was forced to a stop here.
Reporter Li Yangyang and others were planning to leave Qingyun Mountain and return to the capital today.
Unexpectedly, just as they had started driving and were passing by a few villages, they had the bad luck of encountering a tide of beasts.
Their vehicle was force-stopped by a tiger leaping down from a ravine beside the road.
The tiger ruthlessly shredded the car's four tires with its claws, and the vehicle was trapped in place, unable to move.
The male tiger now sat atop the car, its adult weight even causing the roof to cave in.
From above, fierce roars by the tiger could be heard from time to time.
Li Yangyang and others were so scared their faces turned pale, barely daring to breathe.
They were city people who grew up in the capital, coddled since childhood.
In the big city, for more than twenty years, they may not have seen a single real, live pig.
Not to mention the tiger, the legendary King of Beasts.
They had only seen tigers on television, in movies, or at zoos.
These were special effects or tamed tigers separated by iron bars for viewing only.
Facing a pure wild tiger face to face like this, being trapped, was a once-in-a-lifetime experience.
So, could they not be afraid?
Inside the car, Li Yangyang and others had been live streaming.
The live stream had not been turned off.
The news of Li Yangyang encountering a tide of beasts and being stopped by a tiger spread quickly over the internet.
In no time, countless viewers rushed into the live stream room.
Seeing the massive tiger blocking their way and the vehicle being continuously damaged,
Even the netizens were quite scared.
"Mommy, I've never seen such a big tiger at the zoo!"
"Nonsense, one is a pet tiger bred by humans, the other is a wild tiger that hunts to live in the mountains, how can they be the same? Their fighting capabilities aren't even on the same level!"
"That tiger's size, within the tiger family, must be that of a hegemon, right? It looks terrifying!"
"The vivid tiger described in Water Margin must be something like this!"
"Mommy, Li Yangyang isn't going to die here today, right? No, my goddess!"
"Damn it, if only I were there, I'd go in with a slide tackle…"
"Slide tackling? Give it up. There was just a news report: a guy who slide tackled at the zoo fed the tigers, which then didn't need to eat for three days. Instead of saying you could slide tackle a tiger to death, saying that you could kill a tiger with your keyboard seems more plausible."
"Tiger: Those who want to challenge, please line up. There's been an increase in slide-tacklers recently, and the tiger master is having some indigestion! *burp~*"
"Guys, can we stop joking around? What's the time now? Lives are at stake; play your jokes but know the limits, alright?"
…
The live stream audience frantically sent barrages of comments.
But Li Yangyang and others inside the car had no interest in watching their live stream's barrage.
They were too terrified to care about the netizens.
They were almost scared to death.
Especially since the tiger, at this point, was lying on their windshield.
With its paw the size of a human face slapping on the windshield.
A casual slap from an adult tiger has the power to exceed a ton.
It could smash a human's head like a watermelon.
In front of the tiger's paw, the windshield was as brittle as paper mache.
"Bang!"
With one slap from the tiger, the windshield shattered completely.
The driver, unfortunately sitting at the wheel, was pierced in the chest by the broken glass shard and screamed, fainting on the spot.
Li Yangyang, sitting in the passenger seat, was also terrified.
Her face was deathly pale, not fainting on the spot was considered strong mental fortitude.
The windshield was shattered.
The driver was also knocked out.
In front of the vehicle, the adult tiger was stepping back, gathering strength to leap, looking like it was about to jump into the car for a feast.
Li Yangyang closed her eyes in despair.
In front of this adult ferocious tiger, their struggling was pointless.
She might as well wait for death on the spot.
Li Yangyang could never have imagined she would come to Qingyun Mountain for an interview, and her life would end here today.
However, just as Li Yangyang was in despair, ready to wait for death,
The next moment, a loud voice suddenly resounded.
"Infinite Heavenly Venerable! Evil creature! How dare you harm people? Cease at once!"
Upon hearing this voice, Li Yangyang and the others immediately opened their eyes, their gazes all converging in the direction of the voice.
They saw several Taoists, who had somehow come to this place.
They were standing not far from their vehicle.
Leading them was a white-haired Taoist in a red robe, exuding an aura of authority without anger.
Behind him followed seven or eight Yellow Robed Taoists, facing the tiger without a hint of fear.
Li Yangyang exclaimed with joy, "It's the Taoists from Qingyun Mountain!"
When she interviewed the Heavenly Master on Qingyun Mountain, it happened to be during his closed-door meditation.
Thus Li Yangyang and her team ended up staying at the mountain Taoist Temple for over twenty days.
There were only a few Red Robed Taoists in the Qingyun Mountain Taoist Temple, and Li Yangyang naturally recognized them.
The one who had come was Taoist Jing Feng, the eldest in age, and who oversaw the Spiritual Official Hall on Qingyun Mountain.
The live stream audience saw that it was a Red Robed Taoist.
Instantly, the live stream room erupted with a frenzy of comments.
"Damn! Why a red one? I thought it was going to be the one in purple coming."
"What good will these few Taoists do? Plus, the one leading them, he's all white-haired, he's not eighty years old then decently over seventy, right? Older than my grandpa! How dare he step up and speak?"
"Unless it's the Purple Robed Heavenly Master arriving, perhaps there might be a chance to save them. These Red Robed and Yellow Robed Taoists being here are probably just going to be the tiger's snack!"
"Old Taoist, run! At your age, why are you joining the fray? If you don't run now, you'll end up just like them!"
"Why isn't it the Heavenly Master who has come!"
"Taoist Jing Feng, run! You're over eighty years old; don't be reckless!"
Inside the live stream room, countless viewers expressed their regrets.
Clearly, they had little faith in these Red Robed and Yellow Robed Taoists.
Not to mention the one in the red robe, who was even over eighty years old.
Older than many of their grandfathers.
In their minds, only the arrival of the Heavenly Master might hold hope for saving lives; anyone else was useless.
Taoist Jing Feng, at this moment, was unaware of what the netizens were discussing.
He led a few Yellow Robed disciples down from Qingyun Mountain and separated from Taoist Jing Xuan.
Taoist Jing Xuan took people to the south side of Qingyun Mountain.
While they were responsible for heading to Taoyuan Village on the east side to rescue the villagers.
They did not expect to encounter a tiger attacking a vehicle halfway to Taoyuan Village.
Taoist Jing Feng immediately came with his Yellow Robed disciples.
He commanded the tiger to stop.
But, after all, the tiger was a tiger, the King of Beasts.
The tiger thought: Old man, who are you? If you tell me to stop, should I listen just like that? Where's the face for tiger master? Why should I listen to you?
The tiger paid no heed to these human Taoists.
Leaping forward, the tiger pounced onto the hood of the car, its head poised to stretch inside, ready to feast on humans.
Inside the car, everyone was terrified.
Taoist Jing Feng was furious.
"Worthless scoundrel! Seeking death!"
As he spoke, Taoist Jing Feng slapped a Divine Speed Talisman, a Great Strength Talisman, and a Golden Light Talisman onto himself.
His entire being transformed into a red streak and burst forward.
Before the tiger could react, Taoist Jing Feng lowered his body.
The eighty-year-old Taoist, executed a slide tackle!
