A piercing scream echoed through the treehouse, and the wild boars were all scared away...

At the same time, everyone who was fast asleep was also awakened...

"What happened!?"

Fu Changxiong, still dazed, was about to draw his knife when he bumped head-on into Qi Xiaojie, who was also looking for a knife…

"Ouch!"

Both of them cried out in pain at the same time, clutching their heads and rubbing them...

The prolonged exposure to the wild seemed to have caused stress reactions in everyone…

Ye Feng approached Qi Xiaoyan with a knife in hand…

"What's going on!?"

Qi Xiaoyan immediately pointed out the window…

"Wild boars, huge wild boars! And a whole herd of them!"

Ye Feng quickly opened the window and peeked out...

Although he couldn't see the specific situation outside, he could clearly hear the sound of the wild boar's running footsteps and its grunting...

Soon, the sound completely disappeared…

Ye Feng also breathed a sigh of relief…

"Nothing to be alarmed about, the wild boar king just brought his herd out to drink water..."

"It's alright, they can't climb up, just ignore them."

Qi Xiaoyan pointed in the direction of the wooden ladder…

"But... we shouldn't do anything about them gnawing on the ladder and the treehouse?"

"What!?"

These words surprised and puzzled Ye Feng greatly…

Because tonight he clearly poured all the leftover bones and scraps of meat into the downstream.

Even the pots were washed clean, so why would wild boars still gnaw on the treehouse, given their habits?

"I was awakened by that sound. I could see it clearly; the biggest wild boar was gnawing at the ladder..."

Upon hearing this, Ye Feng immediately pulled a burning piece of firewood from the fire and went out of the house…

When he saw the broken wooden ladder, he couldn't help but frown...

Then, he carefully inspected the walls surrounding the treehouse…

However, it was discovered that there were at least three bite marks around the area…

Afterwards, he returned to the house with trepidation…

"Hey bro, what's going on?"

Fu Changxiong asked…

Ye Feng didn't answer immediately, but instead looked directly at Liu Sisi...

Have you ever heard of wild boars eating wood?

Liu Sisi shook her head…

"Aren't wild boars omnivorous? How come they eat wood?"

Ye Feng's expression grew even more somber...

"But the fact is, that wild boar king led a group of wild boars and gnawed at our walls."

I suspect they want to destroy our fence and demolish our treehouse.

"It can't be that weird, can it?"

Qi Xiaoyan asked suspiciously:

Are wild boars really that smart?

Ye Feng shook his head…

"I'm not sure what their purpose was, but it happened..."

This behavior is so abnormal that it cannot be explained by biology, and it is not mentioned in any books.

Could it be that the wild boar king... really has become a spirit?

Everyone fell silent for a moment, then Fu Changxiong suddenly spoke:

"Maybe it really is true. I often heard the older generation talk about it when I was a child."

Pigs, especially wild boars, are more intelligent the bigger they are…

And didn't you say before that the size of the wild boar king is almost the limit for this breed?

The Amazon is a primeval forest, so maybe... who knows?

Upon hearing this, Ye Feng fell into thought again…

He didn't believe in demons or monsters, but he couldn't explain the wild boar king's behavior using his knowledge...

We can only assume this is the wild boars' revenge, or that they're trying to drive them away...

"Everyone, regardless of whether they have become spirits or what their purpose is, we absolutely cannot leave this precious land."

Tomorrow, let's all work harder and try to make the arrows. This time, I'm going to slaughter them all.

Eliminate these safety hazards completely!

After some discussion, everyone went to sleep with trepidation...

Only Ye Feng tossed and turned, unable to fall asleep for a long time, because he was worried about safety.

On the other hand, there are two more mouths to feed in the team, and the rainy season is just around the corner...

By then, finding food will be even more difficult, so... it's essential to prepare enough food in advance.

These wild boars were not only a safety hazard for them, but also their best source of food...

The night passed quickly, and early the next morning—

As the sun gradually peeked over the mountains, Ye Feng was once again the first to wake up…

Today is the tenth day of the game, and one-tenth of the 100-day mark has already passed...

He quickly woke everyone up and began carrying out the tasks assigned the previous night…

Qi Xiaoyan and Qi Xiaojie were mainly responsible for cooking and dealing with the leftover eagle from yesterday...

Because everyone was busy until late last night, they completely forgot about it, causing the eagle meat to have spoiled somewhat...

Fortunately, it had been thoroughly dissected and kept in my backpack, so it's still barely edible...

Fu Changxiong and Liu Sisi were responsible for collecting firewood, since smelting steel required a lot of fuel...

Ye Feng, on the other hand, is going to start making the tools for casting molds today…

The process of casting involves pouring molten steel into a pre-drawn mold shape and groove...

Once the molten steel dries, the shape will naturally take shape…

However, he doesn't intend to slowly depict it, because he has something ready-made.

After figuring out his plan, he moved a flat stone from the edge of the pond.

Then he poured a small pile of soil from his backpack onto it, started stirring with his right hand, and slowly poured water in with his left hand…

Before long, after the soil and water had mixed, he began to repeatedly slap and knead it…

About ten minutes later, a large ball of mud, neither too dry nor too wet, had taken shape...

But that wasn't all. Ye Feng then picked up a flat, smooth piece of wood...

They began gently patting the mud ball all around...

Before long, the mud ball turned into a cuboid...it looked just like a mud brick.

Ye Feng knelt on the ground, using a measuring tape to continuously measure the flatness of the mud bricks.

These are the tools he uses for casting. The neatness and sharpness of the arrowhead's shape are crucial in this step…

After pressing, measuring, patting, and pounding for half an hour, he finally obtained a mud brick with sharp edges and a smooth surface like a table…

This is the platform used for casting molds...

Ye Feng's lips curled into a smile as he hurried back into the house and took two arrows from his quiver...

One is a quadrilateral, and the other is a triangle...

He knelt beside the mud bricks, taking deep breaths and nervously wringing his hands...

It seems that all he had to do was insert the arrow into the mud brick, and the arrow's shape would appear...

Next, all you need to do is pour the molten steel into it, wait for it to cool, and the mold will be complete...

But the reality is far more complex than imagined; in this process…

If he accidentally shakes his hand, or if he inserts it incorrectly...

The resulting arrowheads were crooked, either not sharp enough or had extra parts.

At that point, he would only have two options: slowly smooth it out or melt it back down and then remake the mud bricks…

It is extremely time-consuming and labor-intensive...

Ye Feng was standing on the mud bricks, holding the arrow shaft with both hands, but he hesitated to plant it for a long time...
