The tiger kept looking back, watching the two-legged creature struggling to keep up. He thought to himself, "Are all humans so useless? They're not even as good as my food!" He thought, "I'll have to stay away from humans next time I see them. Will this kind of stupidity bring me..."

As soon as Zhao Huanxi caught up with the tiger, he heard the guy cursing himself for being stupid in his heart. Knowing that the tiger could understand what he was saying, he started chatting with the tiger.

Zhao Huanxi: "Brother Tiger, where are you taking me? You really can understand me. Why do you think I smell good? Are there other Uncle Tigers in this forest..."

Tiger: Why is this person talking so much nonsense? He is annoying me.

Zhao Huanxi: "Brother Hu, please don't be angry. I don't mean any harm. I'm just curious."

The tiger was really annoyed, so he simply stopped and talked to Zhao Huanxi: I don’t know why you smell so good, I only know that the closer I am to you, the smarter I become.

Zhao Huanxi understood and felt that this was his innate spiritual body. It was an excellent physique for cultivating immortality. Flying with a sword, and achieving immortality? Wakakaka

Tiger:..........

After following the big tiger for a quarter of an hour or two, Zhao Huanxi came to an extremely hidden cave entrance. He pushed aside the grass and entered, and found a different world inside.

The space inside is more than 100 square meters, with strange rocks everywhere. The stalactites on the top are of various shapes and dripping with water. The shallow water pools on the ground are crystal clear, and the water drops falling into the shallow water make crisp musical sounds.

Zhao Huanxi was puzzled. Apart from the beautiful stalactites, there seemed to be nothing else here. Moreover, this place did not look like the habitat of the big tiger. So, why did it bring him here?

Tiger: I can’t carry it, I can’t carry it

He had no choice but to signal Zhao Huanxi to follow him with his eyes, and walked slowly forward. The light in front was getting dimmer and dimmer. Animals could see it, but Zhao Huanxi couldn't. He had no choice but to follow the big tiger closely, for fear that if they met, he would get separated and be eaten by something like in a horror movie.

Zhao Huanxi was getting goosebumps from thinking about it, but he still followed the tiger and groped his way forward. Fortunately, the tiger stopped not long after.

The thing that appeared before Zhao Huanxi almost made him fall down. Was this a pile of human bones? Most importantly, this person seemed to be wearing modern clothes. Unfortunately, with the passage of time, the original appearance of the clothes could no longer be seen.

Zhao Huanxi comforted himself that there was nothing to be afraid of dead bones. He looked at the tiger again. The guy was half-sitting there, motioning Zhao Huanxi to go check the bones.

Zhao Huanxi had no idea what Tiger was up to, so he could only ask timidly, "Brother Tiger, Uncle Tiger, you don't want me to...turn him over...?"

Tiger: Otherwise, why did I bring you here?

Zhao Huanxi: Damn it, what the hell is going on? If I had known that my fate would be so unfortunate today, I would not have gone into the mountains even if they would have killed me.

After a long period of psychological counseling, Zhao Huanxi finally made up his mind to turn over the bones according to the tiger's wishes.

"My dear gentleman... my dear gentleman... please don't blame me... I didn't mean to go through your things. I was forced to do so... I hope you won't blame me..."

Zhao Huanxi muttered to himself as he carefully opened the clothes of the skeleton.

Gently lifting up Bai Gu's coat, what caught his eye was a thin manual. Zhao Huanxi bowed again, and kept muttering words like "don't blame me".

Then he took out the manual from the arms of the skeleton. Zhao Huanxi took it in his hand and examined it. There were no words on the outside of the manual. He gently opened it and saw that the words on it were written in traditional Chinese characters with a brush. Moreover, due to the long time, the handwriting on it was a little blurred.

Zhao Huanxi took it to a bright place and examined it carefully. He could only vaguely make out the words written on it:

"Seeing the world in its decline, the prophecies of Zi hour cannot come true."

There were some small words below, but Zhao Huanxi couldn't make out what was written. As for this fable-like sentence, Zhao Huanxi couldn't understand its meaning even more.

After examining the skeleton again, it seemed that there was nothing else besides the booklet. Zhao Huanxi carefully put the booklet away, then turned to look at Tiger and asked him, "Brother Tiger, I looked at the things you asked me to look through, but I can't make out anything."

Tiger: This human used to have the same scent as you, but now that scent is gone.

Zhao Huanxi seemed to know what the scent the tiger was talking about. It must be the scent of a soul that didn't belong to this world. But why did this scent make the big cat regain consciousness? Now it could even communicate with him. Could such a thing really exist? It was too fantastical.

The bones before him looked like they had been dead for years, so why had the fragrance only recently vanished? If it had disappeared just after Zhao Huanxi had traveled through time, it would have been too much of a coincidence.

"The prophecy at midnight cannot come true." It should have been midnight when he first came here. If he had to calculate the time, it was exactly midnight. Zhao Huanxi felt an unprecedented sense of crisis in his heart.

What secrets does this world hold?

My soul had traveled through time and space to become Zhao Huanxi in this world, so where did this skeleton in modern clothes come from? Could there be another entrance to this world?

A terrible idea suddenly popped up in Zhao Huanxi's mind. There was a person who had been helping Zhao Huanxi in the modern world. The knowledge he learned from that person seemed to be tailor-made for his survival in ancient times.

Grandma? Zhao Huanxi suddenly remembered the last words the old lady said to her before she passed away, "Huanhuan, grandma's Huanhuan, you must live well, no matter where you are, you must live well."

Zhao Huanxi's mind flashed back to the image of the old lady holding her young self's hand, worried but having to leave. Zhao Huanxi was now in tears.

At the time, I thought the old lady was worried about me, but now it seems that her words have a deeper meaning. Could it be that grandma knows something? But what can an old lady living alone in the mountains know?

Zhao Huanxi's mind was a mess now. He tried to sort out his thoughts, but found that he couldn't figure it out no matter how hard he tried.

On second thought, if this tiger can understand human speech just by smelling it, then give it some of its own blood...

No, no, if this tiger turns its back on me and kills me in one gulp, wouldn't that mean I'm not dead? He shook his head, trying to get rid of the thought.

Seeing the bones lying there was really pitiful, Zhao Huanxi prepared to bury this corpse that came from another world like her. She took a mini hoe and dug a hole on the spot. Fortunately, the soil in the hole was not difficult to dig, but it still took a lot of effort to dig it out.

He gently picked up the bones and placed them in the dug pit. He knelt down and kowtowed several times before burying the bones in the pit.

After Zhao Huanxi finished doing all this, she sighed deeply. This skeleton should have come from the same world as her, but it died in this deserted cave. She didn't know if she would have the same fate as this skeleton in the future. She was not only complaining about it but also complaining about herself.

The tiger next to him seemed bored of waiting, and his long tail was swinging back and forth impatiently.

Zhao Huanxi found it a little funny, so he walked over, touched its big head, and said to it, "Brother Tiger, now that we're done, let's go out."

Tiger: Humph, you made me wait for so long. I should have known not to bring you here.

Zhao Huanxi heard the tiger being so arrogant and wanted to tease it: "Brother Tiger, since you think I smell good, how about I go into the mountains more often in the future? But you have to agree to one small condition of mine."

Tiger: What do you want, human? Don't even think about coveting my beauty.

Zhao Huanxi smiled and said, "How about I give you a name? Brother Tai?"

Tiger: What the hell?
