"Hua'er, is this thing of ours really reliable?" Su Baishi squatted in the grass on the hillside and whispered to Su Hua, "That kind of grass smells quite fragrant, but pheasants are small, and their noses are even smaller. I'm afraid they won't even be able to smell it."

"Don't worry, Mother. Master said that wild pheasants love these herbs and will definitely come by the scent." Su Hua smiled and glanced at the trap below the hillside.

The Su family weren't hunters and didn't have specialized trapping tools, so Su Hua made a simple trap using sticks and rope. All she had to do was insert a sharp stick into the ground, tie a rope to the top of the stick, and make a snare at the other end of the rope and place it on the ground. Finally, she scattered wild grass with water droplets from her spatial dimension around the snare.

The allure of these water droplets is etched into the very soul of wild animals.

However, the water droplet incident was too bizarre. If she told her family, they would probably think she was a monster.

Therefore, she could only attribute everything to these wild grasses.

Moreover, this wild grass is indeed rye grass, which pheasants prefer to eat.

"Alright, we have nothing else to do today, so it won't hurt to wait." Madam Su said with a smile. It would be best if they could catch a pheasant, but if they couldn't, she would still be happy to play with her daughter.

We had a lot of snails stored up at home before, but we don't need to collect many today. We just need to go back before noon and stir-fry some snails.

The enormous sun disc hangs in the sky.

Tiny specks of light fall among the mountains and forests.

A gentle breeze blew, and I didn't feel cold at all; instead, I felt a bit warm.

As the old saying goes, spring brings drowsiness, autumn brings fatigue, and summer brings naps. Su Hua lay in the grass for an unknown amount of time, but didn't see a single pheasant feather. Instead, she gradually started yawning one after another, and even the scene in front of her became blurry.

The next instant, the sleeve was suddenly pulled.

Immediately, Su Bai whispered in her ear, "Hua'er, look, the long-tailed pheasants are here, and there's a pair of them..."

The woman's voice was full of excitement.

Su Hua was no longer sleepy and looked towards the trap.

Sure enough, a pair of plump pheasants were walking over with small steps. They had brightly colored feathers, extremely long tail feathers, and a colorful collar around their necks. They were a size smaller than domestic chickens. The pheasant in front had rosy cheeks and looked very spirited.

At a glance, you can tell that this is a ring-necked pheasant, and a male at that.

If this were modern China, who would dare to set their sights on this ring-necked pheasant? They'd probably be taken to the police station and might not be released even after working on a sewing machine until it was smoking.

“Hua’er, that long-tailed pheasant is eating grass!” Su Bai smacked her lips, her eyes shining. “Just a little more, just a little more, and it will be in the rope.”

Almost as soon as the words were spoken, a 'thud' was heard.

One of the male pheasant's legs was already tied with a noose.

Upon seeing this, the female pheasant didn't even glance at her, and simply flapped her wings and flew away.

In the blink of an eye, they disappeared into Fuhu Mountain.

Not even a single chicken feather was left.

Su Hua couldn't help but click her tongue, "Mother, could this be the legendary saying, 'Husbands and wives are like birds in the same forest, but when disaster strikes, they fly away separately'?"

"Um." Madam Su paused for a moment, then stroked Su Hua's hair with great affection. "Hua'er, don't worry. Although the husband and wife birds will fly away separately when disaster strikes, the mother and daughter birds will definitely not do that!"

His earnest and earnest manner made Su Hua's lips twitch.

This profound maternal love.

Su Hua's face flushed slightly. She stood up from the bushes and subtly changed the subject, "Mother, let's hurry up and get this pheasant out, lest it break free and all our efforts are in vain!"

However, she had only taken one step forward.

A humming sound came from behind.

Immediately afterwards, I felt the ground beneath my feet shaking.

“Hua, Hua’er… Big, Big Wild Boar…” Su Bai’s face turned deathly pale in an instant, her lips trembled, and she stammered for a long time, “It’s a big wild boar, we have to run, we have to run fast…”

He kept saying he was going to run, but his legs were as weak as jelly.

He can't even stand up.

Su Hua quickly turned around and saw a large, dark-skinned man rushing down from Fuhu Mountain like a whirlwind.

It has a long, pointed, dark pig face, and its neck bristles are about three or four inches long, standing upright like sharp steel needles.

Two thick, long fangs gleamed with a cold light at the corners of his mouth.

Especially the pair of pupils on its fangs, which were eerily vertical.

Su Hua's heart skipped a beat, and she swallowed hard. She was about to quietly pick up Su Bai and carry her down the hillside.

Last time I tried to hunt a small wild boar but ended up with a rabbit. This time I just wanted to hunt a small pheasant quietly, and I only used half a drop of water, but it attracted such a big one.

It was a ferocious wild boar weighing three or four hundred pounds.

God is clearly playing a cruel joke on her.

Unexpectedly, just as Su Hua picked up the person, the wild boar moved even faster.

With a flick of its long tongue, it swallowed a small clump of wild grass from the ground, and then huffed and puffed as it walked towards Su Hua and the other person.

Its leisurely stroll seemed as if it were taking a walk in its own backyard.

"Holy crap!" Su Hua almost cursed. For the first time, she suspected that she was a genuine jinx. Who could be more unlucky than her?

Su Bai's face turned ashen with anxiety. "Hua'er, put your mother down quickly! I'll hold off the wild boar, you hurry down the mountain!"

Su Hua shook her head. This wild boar looked like it had ill intentions. If Su Baishi was left behind, she would probably become food for the wild boar.

On the contrary, he himself, with his great strength, at least had a glimmer of hope.

Moreover, wild boars have a very keen sense of smell, and she suspected that the big guy was attracted by the scent of the water droplets on her body.
