Chapter 383
Everyone crouched down and quietly moved towards the source of the sound.
Through the dense branches and leaves, they saw a huge wild boar with its head lowered, rooting for food on the ground.
The wild boar was covered with rough black hair, and two long fangs protruded from the corners of its mouth, flashing coldly in the sunlight.
"We have a lot of people, so spread out and surround him. I'll shoot him first. If I miss, you guys can come up with it." Second uncle said in a low voice.
Everyone nodded, gripped their weapons tightly, and the thirty people spread out, like an open net bag, surrounding the wild boar.
Seeing that everyone was almost standing still, the second uncle picked up his hunting rifle, aimed at the wild boar, and with a "bang", the bullet hit the wild boar.
The wild boar felt pain and let out a dull roar, but it was extremely tenacious and did not fall down as everyone expected.
Seeing this, everyone rushed towards the wild boar without hesitation like a tiger descending from the mountain.
The wild boar was startled by the sudden movement. It raised its head abruptly, and its already ferocious eyes were now flashing with a terrifying light, as if burning with flames of anger.
Su Yu was quick-witted and swift-handed, throwing the spear in his hand first. The spear flew towards the wild boar like a black lightning with a whistling sound.
However, the wild boar reacted very quickly. It suddenly jumped to the side, and the spear brushed past the wild boar's body, flew past with a "whoosh", and finally pierced into the grass next to it, leaving only slightly swaying grass leaves to prove its trajectory.
The wild boar roared angrily and vigilantly watched the people around it, but was horrified to find that there were people surrounding it on all sides.
In a panic, it could only choose a direction at random and rush forward desperately in an attempt to break out of the encirclement.
However, thirty men came here to take its life, so how could they let it escape?
All of a sudden, knives, guns, sticks and clubs were wielded, completely blocking the wild boar's escape route, making it unable to fly away.
Finally, when Brother Xiang used all his strength to hit the wild boar on the head with a heavy hammer, the wild boar fell down with a bang as if its spine had been pulled out.
The huge body fell to the ground, splashing up a cloud of dust.
Uncle Qi wiped his slightly sweaty forehead, a relieved smile on his face, and said, "Axiang is indeed strong. This wild boar is really resilient. It was hit by so many sticks but still looked so energetic. It almost knocked me away."
When the young men saw the wild boar fall down, they surrounded it and tied its trotters in pairs with ropes. This way, even if it woke up later, it would have no way to struggle.
Zhige said excitedly: "This one must weigh at least 200 pounds! Even if we divide it equally, each of us will get several pounds of meat."
Fourth Uncle laughed and said, "We've seen two of them at once, proving there's a herd of wild boars in this mountain. Let's keep looking. I'm sure we'll get more than just this one today!"
After successfully capturing the first wild boar, everyone's fighting spirit became higher and higher. They all gave thumbs up to Dahuang and Dahei, praising them for being good dogs.
Dahei and Dahuang walked around Dawei and Xiaowei with their heads held high, with contempt flashing in their eyes, as if they were mocking their incompetence.
Then he led everyone deeper into the forest. It was almost noon at this time, and the sunlight shone through the dense branches and leaves, casting mottled light and shadows on the ground.
The silence in the forest became increasingly eerie, and the occasional sound of the wind seemed like the humming of a wild beast hidden in the dark.
Suddenly, four wild boars ran towards them with ferocious looks, raising a cloud of dust.
These four wild boars were all quite large. Perhaps they were frightened by the barking of the dogs, but they actually launched an attack regardless of the large number of people present.
Second Uncle shouted calmly, "Don't panic, just follow the plan!"
Several young men immediately dispersed and ran in different directions, trying to attract the wild boar's attention.
Sure enough, two of the wild boars were attracted by their actions and chased after them.
The second uncle and another uncle Huang who was carrying a gun faced the other two wild boars directly and called the others to stay behind them to avoid being hurt by bullets.
The two men held their hunting rifles, aimed at the wild boar's head, and kept their fingers on the trigger.
In fact, although the two men can use guns, they don’t use them normally, and bullets are hard to buy, so they only touch guns once in a long time, so their shooting skills are indeed average.
Second uncle had tried to hit the wild boar a few times during this period. Although he didn't hit the wild boar between the eyebrows, he hit its legs, causing the wild boar to stagger and fall forward due to the inertia of the charge.
Uncle Huang missed his attack. The wild boar rushed straight towards him, and he quickly dodged to the side.
Su Yuanzheng went up with a big stick, and while the wild boar was concentrating on chasing and biting others, he hit it hard on the back of the head.
However, the wild boar was jumping up and down, making it difficult to aim, and the stick hit its back.
The wild boar screamed in pain and turned around to attack Su Yuanzheng. Su Yuanzheng hurriedly retreated but accidentally tripped over a tree root.
Just as the wild boar was about to pounce on him, Su Yu was quick-witted and stabbed the wild boar's eye with the spear in his hand.
The wild boar lost an eye and began to run around in circles madly, and finally fell under the sticks of the crowd.
After half an hour of fighting, the four wild boars lay neatly in the open space.
Including the first one, a total of five wild boars weighing more than 200 pounds were killed.
Su Yuanzheng looked at his watch and said, "Second brother, fourth brother, it's almost two o'clock. Should we go back? It would be best if we can deal with this dead pig as soon as possible."
Second Uncle nodded and said, "Let's go back. We've killed five pigs. We'll get rid of them right away and divide the meat. Didn't we say we wanted the whole village to celebrate together? Then let's set it up tonight?"
Everyone nodded in agreement, their faces filled with joy at the achievement.
Using local materials, they cut five relatively thick wooden sticks, passed them between the wild boar's bound legs, hung it upside down, and two people carried it on one end.
Just as the group was walking back happily, a cousin made a new discovery.
"Piggy? Where are the piggies?"
In a relatively secluded corner, there was a lot of withered straw, which should have been collected by a big pig. There were 6 half-grown wild boars in it.
Although they are small in size, they are very ferocious. After seeing the crowd, they circled around in their nest and wanted to jump up and bite them, but were knocked over by Dahuang and Dahei.
Someone asked, "Do you still want this piglet?"
The second and fourth uncles discussed it and said, "All living things have spirits. We came here today to kill the pigs because they came down the mountain to damage the fields and people. It's better not to kill them all.
These piglets don't look too small. There aren't any wolves, tigers or leopards in this area. They can survive on their own, so let them go."
"Or let the dogs drive them away from here, or they'll come down the mountain again when they get bigger."
"Okay! Then drive them to the farther woods."
