After only a few days of rest, Qin Nian started working at a high intensity, limiting her sleep to about six hours a day and not allowing herself to stop for the rest of the time.
Qin Nian, who had only returned to the family compound once and had been almost completely immersed in the laboratory, had almost forgotten what the date was. She just felt like she hadn't been home for a long time.
Qin Nian took her salary and prepared to go home to check on things, but when she got home, the door was locked, and the same was true for her neighbor, Aunt Wang's house; no one was home at either house.
Qin Nian raised her hand to look at her watch; it was almost six o'clock.
A group of agricultural students surrounded two elderly women at the Academy of Agricultural Sciences.
"Aunt Yang, your big pot of stew smells so good!"
"Aunt Yang, you're amazing! You managed to lasso that wild boar with just one rope! It scared me to death. I thought I was going to die here today."
Everyone was chattering. Today they came up the mountain together to the orchard to help clear weeds. The pear trees in this area weren't producing very good fruit and had been abandoned for a long time. Their mentor asked them to clean up the orchard so they could learn to graft new varieties next year.
Halfway through the clearing, someone suddenly shouted that there were wild boars in the woods. Everyone was so frightened that they ran away as fast as they could, but there was grass everywhere, and it was easy to trip over it if you weren't careful.
"Climb the trees, quick!"
When Aunt Wang and Yang Yufen shouted, a group of students reacted and climbed the nearest tree.
But the students being chased weren't so lucky; they had no chance at all.
However, the students were clever; those who were far away picked up things and threw them at the wild boars to attract them, and then quickly climbed up the trees.
We're always together, and this is when our spirit of unity shines through.
Yang Yufen watched as a group of children chased wild boars, then pushed Granny Wang up a tree and ran to pull out the rope she was using for work.
The wild boar wasn't very big, otherwise this group of students wouldn't have been able to run it around. Yang Yufen saw an opportunity and, worried that she wouldn't be able to hold it back, picked a boy to go with her.
"I'll throw the lasso in a bit. If it hits, help pull it up."
After Yang Yufen finished explaining, she shouted loudly.
"Lure the wild boar this way!"
Yang Yufen's palms were sweaty, especially when she saw the child being chased almost running out of breath and not paying attention to the terrain. Yang Yufen gritted her teeth and threw the rope.
The moment it was put on, it tightened immediately. The boy next to him reacted instinctively and helped to hold it back, feeling a burning sensation in his palm.
"Pull hard!"
Following Yang Yufen's words, the boy exerted force, and then heard the wild boar's pitiful screams as it turned around.
"Walk around the tree roots."
Yang Yufen gave the boy a push, and the boy immediately understood. He pulled the rope around the tree and even tied a knot in it.
Before Yang Yufen could even make a move, other students had already reacted by grabbing hoes and swinging them at the wild boar's head.
The boy was panting heavily, patting his chest. Seeing his classmate's fierce swing of the hoe against the wild boar, he instinctively backed away.
"So tragic, so tragic!"
The wild boar was killed, which frightened a group of students. When Wang Shuo arrived, he decided to cook the wild boar to appease the students.
Upon hearing that they could have a picnic, everyone became very enthusiastic and used whatever ingredients were available. Yang Yufen took the initiative to cook.
Upon hearing that a wild boar had been killed, people nearby also came over to join in the fun.
"Be careful, this wild boar isn't big. There might be bigger wild boars deeper in the forest."
Wang Shuo still reported it and asked someone to come and clear it out.
"Don't worry, there are so many of us. But we do need to drive them away. We can set some traps, but we need to mark them well so that no one falls into them by accident."
Wang Shuo's colleagues also arrived. Seeing that the students were alright, they were relieved. Their agricultural research institute often had wild boars coming down from the mountains and damaging the experimental fields. Each time, they would just set off a firecracker to scare them off. They never expected that wild boars would come down with so many students this time.
