Shi Tou was stunned for a moment, then burst into laughter.
"How can it be like this every day? I've been hunting for several years, and this is the first time I've had such good luck!"
At this point, Shitou paused, looked at Shen Siyue, and said uncertainly: “Maybe it’s not my luck, but your luck.”
He had been hunting for so many years and had never been as lucky as he was today.
The only difference between today and the past is the addition of Shen Siyue.
Shen Siyue was also a little surprised when she heard what he said.
Then he laughed: "I see, this might be my novice gift package, who knows if you really took advantage of me?"
"Newbie gift pack? What does that mean?" Shitou had never heard of this term, and of course didn't know what it meant.
Shen Siyue explained to him: "When a person does something for the first time out of the blue, God will often give him good luck and give him a big gift for free, commonly known as: a novice gift package."
Shi Tou thought about it and it seemed to make sense.
"Then half of today's prey is yours. Let's split it equally."
Just using this excuse, Shitou proposed to share part of the harvested prey with Shen Siyue.
Originally, Shen Siyue just said that for fun, but she didn't expect Shitou to give her half of the prey.
She quickly rejected him: "No, no, I was just joking. No merit, no reward. I didn't do anything to catch these prey today, how can I take the fruits of your labor for nothing?"
But Shitou was also very firm: "I have never caught so many at once before. It must be due to your good luck. I should give you half."
One of the two people insisted on giving it, while the other refused, and they argued for a long time.
Finally, Shitou proposed a solution: "Let's let God decide. There is another settling site further away. We didn't plan to go there today, but now we will go and take a look."
"If there is still prey, then don't refuse. We can take half each."
"If not, I'll take all of these. Is that okay?"
Shen Siyue disagreed: “There are two of us here. If there is really prey, you can’t say it’s because of me, right?”
But Shitou insisted: "I've never been so lucky before."
In the end, Shen Siyue had no choice but to agree with him.
The two men climbed up another hill.
When they saw the badger hanging on the noose, both Shen Siyue and Shitou were stunned.
After Shitou stepped forward and untied the badger, he looked at Shen Siyue with shining eyes: "The gift package God gave you is really a bit big!!!"
He threw the badger into the large basket behind him and said excitedly to Shen Siyue: “Since we are here, let’s go take a look at the nearby traps!”
Shen Siyue followed Shitou in a daze and walked a short distance forward.
When they arrived at the destination, they were completely stunned.
In the pit, which was about one person deep, there was a pitch-black wild boar.
In the middle of the pit, some wooden sticks with sharp ends were inserted into the stones, and at this time the wild boar's belly was pierced by a wooden stick.
The entire stick was stained red with blood.
I don’t know if it was just a short time ago that the wild boar fell in, but it is not dead yet, and it is still breathing from its mouth!
The wild boar is not very big, probably weighing only about 100 pounds.
Shitou stared at the wild boar at the bottom of the pit in a daze, and couldn't help but ask a question from the bottom of his heart: "Did God tell you how long the novice gift package will last?"
Shen Siyue’s mind was also a little confused: “I’m not familiar with God, he didn’t explain it in detail!”
"Hahaha!!!"
Shi Tou was amused by their reactions.
Shaking off those messy thoughts, he quickly put the basket on the ground: "We have to get rid of it quickly, otherwise the bloody smell will attract other things if we wait too long."
"Turn away and don't look."
After saying that, he jumped into the pit and cut the tender flesh on the wild boar's neck with a knife he carried with him.
Blood spurted out with a hissing sound.
Soon the wild boar, which was already on the verge of death, completely lost its breath.
“There’s a rope in my basket, help me get it out.” Shitou said to Shen Siyue, who was standing outside the pit without any fear.
After finding the rope and handing it to him, Shen Siyue squatted beside the pit and watched Shitou tie up the wild boar with swift hands and feet!
Then he handed one end of the rope back to Shen Siyue: "You pull from above and I'll push from below."
Shen Siyue nodded, and as Shitou counted "one, two, three, pull", she began to push hard with a red face.
The stone at the bottom of the pit used its shoulders as a support point and pushed the wild boar out of the pit little by little.
Then, with the help of Shen Siyue, he climbed out by pulling the rope.
At this moment, he didn't care that he was covered in dirt. Shitou took out the prey that was originally in his basket and put it into Chen Siyue's small basket.
Then he lifted the wild boar into his big basket. Fearing that the basket could not bear such a heavy thing, he reinforced it with a rope.
He tested the weight of Shen Siyue's small basket and asked, "Can you carry these?"
Siyue Shen didn’t say anything, but just patted her shoulder, motioning him to help put the basket on her shoulders.
Shitou didn't say any more nonsense. He would have to carry the wild boar, which weighed more than 100 pounds, on a mountain road in a while. Now was not the time to be pretentious.
These weights are not heavy for Shen Siyue, who has been doing farm work all year round.
She tested the amount, found it okay, and nodded at the stone.
Shitou didn't say anything else. He walked to his big basket, squatted down, wrapped the hemp rope of the basket around his shoulders, then gritted his teeth and picked up the pig weighing more than 100 pounds.
"Walk."
After he gave the order, neither of them spoke again.
With his head lowered and in silence, he began to carefully head back up the mountain where there was no road at all.
At first, Shen Siyue thought she could still hold on, but the further she walked, the further she fell behind.
There was no place to step on the rugged mountain road.
It is easy for a person to lose balance if he or she is carrying dozens of kilograms of weight behind him or her.
Seeing that they had already climbed over a mountain, Shen Siyue hurriedly called out to the stone in front of him: "Rest... rest for a while, I can't walk anymore."
Then he leaned the basket behind him against a slope and raised his hand to pull off the scarf around his neck.
Her clothes were soaked with sweat and she was terribly hot.
Seeing this, Shitou quickly turned back and held her hand: "Don't pick them, be careful of catching a cold."
If you sweat profusely and then get blown by cold wind, you will definitely get sick.
Shen Siyue said to him breathlessly: "It's really a bit boring."
Shitou looked around, worried that it was still unsafe here. The smell of blood from the wild boar behind him could be smelled from far away.
If a wolf smells anything, you'll be in trouble.
