As soon as the two arrived, they saw a pack of wolves fighting a group of wild boars.
The scene was spectacular.
Clearly, the wolf was no match for the wild boar.
The valley was so dangerous that Qiu Yan became increasingly worried.
She was truly afraid that her second uncle's body would be completely destroyed.
She had no desire to continue fighting. She had intended to quietly slip past the wolf pack and wild boar herd with Gu Qian, bypass the area ahead, and continue searching for the person. However, the path was too narrow.
On both sides of the mountain road, there is a cliff on one side and a cliff edge on the other.
Trying to pass through would surely disturb them.
Qiu Yan swiftly extended her arm, the hidden arrow aimed directly at the wolf.
Hearing the sound behind them, the wolves turned around one by one.
Upon seeing this, they let out excited howls.
But their excitement didn't last long.
Whoosh... A wolf fell to the ground at the sound.
Then, another one...
Qiu Yan had excellent aim; any wolf she shot, even if it didn't die immediately, was injured and fell to the ground.
On the cliff, Qiu Dafu and Jiang Liu sat firmly on the vines, leaning on each other.
"Dafu, what was that sound just now?"
Even with such heavy rain, the two of them could hear it.
Qiu Dafu vaguely heard the whooshing sound of arrows, "It's Xiaoyan."
"Xiaoyan has come to save us!" Jiang Liu shouted excitedly towards the top of the cliff, "Xiaoyan, we're here..."
Qiu Dafu knew that Xiao Yan had arrived, and Gu Qian might have come as well, so his face lit up with hope.
"It's Xiaoyan and the others fighting against the wild boar."
Jiang Liu: "Wouldn't that be very dangerous?"
"There is definitely danger," Qiu Dafu said with a worried expression.
"Xiao Yan..." Jiang Liu was worried about Qiu Yan and began to call out loudly.
However, the sound of the rain completely drowned out her voice, and Qiu Yan and the others couldn't hear a single word.
At the top of the cliff, the wolves were all dead, and the wild boars were no longer in danger, so they all looked towards Qiu Yan and her companion.
Shooting wild boars is not so easy.
These wild boars were much larger than the one Qiu Yan had hunted before, and their hides were thick and tough, making them difficult to shoot through.
Qiu Yan had shot down all the arrows in her sleeve, but five wild boars were still jumping around.
Gu Qian took Qiu Yan's hand and said, "I'll do it."
He drew his soft sword with a whoosh, leaped onto the ground, and flew towards the herd of pigs, beginning his battle with the wild boars.
At the same moment, Li Zheng arrived and joined the battle.
Zhao Shan and the others cautiously approached and continued their search.
"Sister!" Suddenly hearing a familiar shout, Qiu Yan turned around and saw Qiu Xu, soaking wet, rushing to them.
"Ah Xu, be careful!"
When did her younger brother return to the village? Qiu Yan had no idea.
"Sister, catch!"
Qiu Xu shouted and threw a weapon to Qiu Yan.
Qiu Yan took it with one hand, and at first glance, it turned out to be a musket.
Qiu Xu's move was completely unexpected to her.
Without thinking twice, she grabbed the musket, aimed at one of the wild boars in the herd, and pulled the trigger.
Thump... The wild boar cried out and fell to the ground.
The gunshot was quite loud. Everyone who heard it turned around and looked at Qiu Yan, who was holding a gun and pointing it directly at the wild boar.
Li Zheng looked surprised, and Gu Qian stared in astonishment. He had always thought that the musket was something Qiu Yan had imagined, and he didn't know whether it could be made.
Unexpectedly, Ah Xu did it.
In the cliff,
Jiang Liu suddenly heard gunshots and asked, "Da Fu, what's that sound again?"
"I don't know." Qiu Dafu had no way of knowing.
"Dafu, if we survive this ordeal, we will surely be blessed with good fortune. From now on, we must live well."
While comforting Qiu Dafu, Jiang Liu was also comforting herself.
