The tiger ran off, finding its way to Zhang Shouxin's backyard, between the crevice of two brick houses.
It crouched on a stack of hay, warily watching everything outside!
Curious villagers passing by asked, "What are you doing here?"
Old Zhang chuckled, "Take a look inside, there's a tiger!"
"Are you kidding me?" The villager glanced between the houses and jumped, "My goodness! It's really a tiger!"
They were scared at first, but then they noticed that this tiger was different from what they had imagined; it was lying there quietly, not looking fierce and man-eating!
Plus, with people around, they felt braver and found the situation quite thrilling.
Aside from in a zoo or on TV, how many people get to see a tiger with their own eyes in their lifetime?
Such an interesting and novel event was not to be missed; they had to rush home and call their families to come and see.
