"Let nature take its course, this is already pretty good."

"Yes, I'm really ungrateful."

"Mom, are we leaving?"

"Yes, let's leave right away. Let's see if there's any ginseng left. I used to collect a lot of it."

Zhang Hongmei looked at the tiger lying on the ground. "Thank you. We have to leave now. We don't know if we'll ever have the chance to meet again. Take care."

The tiger stood up, swishing its tail, and watched the family leave.

This little valley really has a lot of good things, but it's true that they don't recognize them.

"Honey, let's hurry over there. They must be getting anxious."

"Okay, I only know ginseng, nothing else." Besides, the space is also filled with all sorts of herbs from the valley. Zhang Hongmei really is dispensable.

When the six people returned around 10 o'clock, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

No one would ever ask about their past, and the six of them were perfectly content.

"Sir, are you going to stay in this valley any longer?"

"Lu Jing, have you found anything?"

“Madam, we know a little about herbs, but not much. We’ve picked quite a few of the ones we recognize.”

"Were there any other discoveries?"

Liu Jingze handed over a handkerchief-wrapped package. "This is the ginseng I found."

"Brother Jingze, take this and give it to Grandma when you get back."

Liu Jingze didn't say anything and put it in the basket.

Zhang Shouyi said, "In that case, let's head back."

"Mom, where's the wolf?" asked the fourth child.

"I don't know either. We still have time, maybe we'll run into them. Besides, if all else fails, we can stay another day."

"Mom, we're here to fight wolves."

"It's alright. Otherwise, we can hunt more rabbits or something, and maybe the wolves will be attracted."

"Mom, your idea is great. That's it, I'm going to hunt wolves."

Seeing Xiao Si's stubbornness, the couple had no choice. They might as well fight the wolf, but they didn't know if the wolf would even come over.

"I think the wolves should come to the water to drink. Let's stay there and roast some meat."

"Okay, Uncle, you go catch the fish, we want to eat grilled fish."

"Okay, Uncle will definitely fulfill Xiao Si's wish." Gu Yaozu felt satisfied.

"Godfather, do you know how to grill fish?"

"It should work, why don't we give it a try?"

The four children stared at Liu Jingze with exasperation; this guy didn't know either.

Zhang Hongmei found it quite funny, "It's okay, Mom can make fish balls for you."

We chatted and laughed as we crossed the mountain, taking a break before entering the pine forest. We wondered what we would encounter inside.

"Mom, what if there are wild boars? How are we going to get them down there?" Zhang Weiyu started worrying about things that hadn't even happened yet.

"Your uncle can go down the mountain to find your grandfather when the time comes."

"Hehe, Madam, there's no need for that. I know how to slaughter pigs. Once it's done, we can just carry it down," Jia said with a smile.

"That's good."

Zhang Shouyi just laughed on the side, as if they were certain they could catch a wild boar.

Zhang Hongmei smiled as she looked at Zhang Shouyi, remembering the time Zhang Shouyi saved her.

"Dad, you're still so amazing!"

"Dad isn't that great, but he saved you because it was your mom."

Zhang Hongmei glanced blankly at Zhang Shouyi; this guy would tell anyone. And there were children involved too.

"You eight can now test your skills. I need to do a final count of your prey."

The children were excited after receiving their master's instructions. The master didn't specify what kind of prey to hunt, meaning anything was fine.

Eight children were in front, and the adults followed behind.

The couple exchanged a glance, both showing shock. They had both heard the noise, and it seemed the four children had noticed as well.

Even Jia didn't notice. Both of them thought at the same time that this was probably one of the benefits of cultivation.

After walking a few dozen meters, Jia also noticed something amiss. He became very alert, and seeing that the four young masters in front of him were all being very cautious, he didn't offer any warnings.

The four guys lined up and said at the same time, "There's something up ahead, and it's something big."

A paused for a moment; he had also heard the noise, but couldn't determine its magnitude.

After walking for another five minutes, we met a family of three wild boars.

Gu Yaozu and Zhang Ruifeng both laughed, Zhang Zhenye had no expression, and Zhang Weiyu was helpless. What was there to be excited about with these two warmongers?

Zhenye spoke in a low voice and instructed, "One and two, you follow Yaozu; three and four, you follow Ruifeng; the rest are up to me and Weiyu."

"Big brother, I want the big one."

"Second brother, be careful."

"rest assured."

The adults just watched from the sidelines, and no one said anything to remind them.

The eight of them worked together seamlessly. Suddenly, Zhang Weiyu spoke up, "Master, can I borrow your longsword?"

Jia just smiled and ignored him. This kid had his eye on his longsword for a long time, and he would never lend it to him.

Zhang Weiyu received no reply and dodged the charging wild boar.

Liu Jingze was very worried and wanted to go over, but Zhang Weiyu spotted him and said, "Godfather, you don't need to come over, the two of us can manage."

(I'm simply too inadequate to describe the scene of the battle with the wild boar.)

An hour later, the last wild boar also collapsed.

All eight children were soaked to the bone and had injuries, though not serious, but Zhang Hongmei was still very distressed.

"Let's carry the wild boar out first."

The big one weighs 600 jin (300 kg), and the small one weighs over 300 jin (150 kg). This is hard work.

Four bodyguards carried the larger one, while Xiao Li, Liu Jingze, Jia, and Zhang Shouyi carried the smaller one in two groups.

Zhenye and Zhang Weiyu led the way, with Zhang Ruifeng and two others on the left, Gu Yaozu and two others on the right, and Zhang Hongmei, Lu Jing, and Gan Lu bringing up the rear.

It took almost an hour to finally reach the pool.

“Brother Jingze, you take one person down the mountain and let your uncle find someone to come up the mountain to carry you.”

"Okay, you and the child should be careful."

"Don't worry, there won't be any problems. You should hurry up and go, otherwise you won't be able to get back before dark."

Liu Jingze led Ding San and the other man down the mountain.

"Master, are you going to slaughter a pig? Wolves might come."

Seeing Xiao Si's persistence, no one could do anything. He didn't know how to go with the flow; he was single-mindedly focused on hunting wolves.

“Okay, if you want to slaughter a pig, it can only be this small one. Xiao Si, actually it's not right to slaughter a pig now, since some villagers will be coming up the mountain later.”

"Alright, Master, let's wait for them to carry the wild boar down, then we can hunt rabbits to lure the wolves away. Anyway, I'm definitely going to hunt wolves."

"Okay, let them carry two of them down, and we'll kill the rest after they leave, then we'll carry them down."

"Master, let's not. I still want to hunt rabbits and pheasants."
