At the foot of the mountain, the children of the grass-cutting team were playing and working as usual when suddenly, the roars of wild boars came from deep in the mountains.
"Oh no, wild boars are coming!"
"Xie Zhiqing is still on the mountain. What if she encounters a wild boar?"
"Quickly go down the mountain and find them!"
Panicked, Zhao Chunling and the children ran down the mountain, shouting, "Help! There's a wild boar! Xie Zhiqing might have encountered a wild boar!"
Upon hearing this, the people who were working quickly grabbed their sickles, hoes, and other tools and rushed over.
After learning the details from the children, the group went deep into the mountains to search for the person.
"I'm here!" Xie Yuyao shouted to the people in the distance as she climbed to a high point, "A wild boar has knocked it unconscious, come and help!"
The group finally approached, and Li Weidong squeezed through the crowd, rushed to her, looked her up and down, and after finding that she was not injured, scolded her: "Why did you run into the deep mountains alone? There are wolves in the mountains, it's too dangerous."
Xie Yuyao was a little embarrassed and smiled apologetically.
"Xie Zhiqing, what did you just say about being knocked unconscious by a wild boar? Where is it?" Zhao Jianbin looked around but didn't see any wild boar.
"Follow me!"
Xie Yuyao led them to the ancient trees deep in the mountains. "I climbed up the tree to hide, and the wild boar kept ramming the tree, eventually knocking itself unconscious."
The group looked at the unconscious wild boar, feeling both delighted and somewhat incredulous.
Every time they encountered a wild boar, they would chase and dodge it, using all their skills.
This Xie Zhiqing must be God's daughter! All she had to do was hide in a tree, and not only was she unharmed, she also made the wild boar die on its own without lifting a finger.
If Xie Yuyao knew what they were thinking, she would nod in agreement.
For her, having a cheat device is truly a lucky thing.
As long as you hide in your personal space, you can come out unscathed after the incident.
Looking at the sleeping wild boar, Zhao Jianbin joked, "Xie Zhiqing, the day before yesterday it was a crocodile, today it's a wild boar, what animal will it be tomorrow?"
"......"
Seeing her speechless expression, Zhao Jianbin and the others burst into laughter.
Li Weidong smiled and shook his head, then frowned as if he had thought of something. "Seriously, is your physique very attractive to animals? One or two of them are all coming to you."
"If that's the case, then wouldn't I be an expert hunter?"
Having said that, if we dig a trap and pour in some spiritual spring water, we should be able to harvest one or two animals the next day.
However, you might also harvest a whole bunch of insects.
Thinking of this, her scalp tingled, and she quickly shook off the image that would trigger trypophobia in someone.
Xie Yuyao secretly warned herself that she must never abuse the spiritual spring water.
"Kill the wild boar quickly, or it will be troublesome once it wakes up," Xie Yuyao reminded her.
If the wild boar doesn't wake up soon, they should realize something is wrong.
Fortunately, they were also afraid that the wild boar would escape and take advantage of its illness to kill it.
When Xie Yuyao finished off the boar, she deliberately controlled the dosage of anesthesia, causing the boar to wake up from the pain.
It howled mournfully, its cries growing fainter and fainter until it died.
The group worked together to carry the wild boar down the mountain. The captain, who was waiting at the foot of the mountain, learned about the situation and gave Xie Yuyao a severe scolding.
"...What if you encounter a tiger or a wolf? What will you do if you lose your life in the mountains? What will happen to your parents and family?"
Xie Yuyao bowed repeatedly and promised, "There won't be a next time. I promise I won't go into the deep mountains alone again. Captain, please calm down. Let's slaughter the wild boar first."
"Hmph! My life is my own."
Yes, yes, yes.
Seeing that Xie Yuyao had a good attitude in admitting her mistake, the captain finally let her go.
His gaze fell on the wild boar again, and he grinned as if his expression had changed, saying, "Slaughter the wild boar and divide the meat, then we'll get to work this afternoon!"
The children screamed with excitement, and the adults were overjoyed—there was meat to eat!
Looking at the bustling crowd, Xie Yuyao told the other educated youths to go get the meat while she went to carry the wild grass back herself.
Her thoughts were in disarray, and she desperately needed a quiet place where no one was around, so she declined Yang Shumei's offer to accompany her.
Alone, she returned to the front of the mountain, walked to a pile of wild grass, picked it up, and put it into a basket.
Li Weidong's anxious face and the captain's angry roar flashed through my mind.
Her movements became slower and slower, and finally she simply plopped down on her bottom.
If she were ever in danger and her cheat system suddenly failed, the consequences would be unimaginable.
Today's events were like a blow to the head, making her realize that she relied too much on her personal space.
This cheat code came so suddenly. If it disappears one day, will she be able to live a good life?

What Zhao Honghui saw was her sitting motionless on the grass, staring blankly into the void, her expression faintly sorrowful.
This scene reminded him of an injured little animal, hiding in its burrow and licking its wounds alone.
"Hmm!" He felt a sudden tightness in his chest and made a sound to indicate his presence.
Hearing the noise, Xie Yuyao looked towards the source of the sound, a hint of surprise flashing in her eyes, "What are you doing here?"
"Are you hurt?" Zhao Honghui asked, seemingly unrelated to the question, but his concern came out without his words.
Xie Yuyao smiled faintly, "No."
"Don't go into the deep mountains alone in the future. The forests are dense, and there are not only wild beasts, but also insects and snakes. It's impossible to guard against them all," Zhao Honghui warned sternly, his cold voice like a command.
Thinking of that cold-blooded animal lurking in the shadows, Xie Yuyao's expression changed slightly, and she felt a wave of fear. "Okay, I will never act alone again."
Why do you want to go deep into the mountains?
Faced with Zhao Honghui's question, Xie Yuyao told the truth: "I want to see if there are any medicinal herbs."
