"If you like them, I'll hunt a few more later, clean them up here, and put them in your space to take back." Si Cheng looked at the large group of wild boars in front of him as if he were talking about the domestic pigs in his own pigsty.
"Okay, although there's plenty of pork in the space, there's really no wild boar meat." Yun Qi still wanted to replenish his space's supplies if he had the means, since after these past few years of consumption, apart from the fruit wine which was constantly increasing, other supplies in the space were decreasing.
It's rare to see so much wild boar meat now. If the two of us can bring back two, that's already the limit. Even if we don't hunt all the others, we can still take this opportunity to collect a few.
"But why are you setting an alarm clock?" Yunqi asked, puzzled, as Sicheng used a drone to tease the wild boars below.
As the drone continued its provocations, the wild boars under the clothes became completely enraged and began to pounce.
"Put the machine back." Si Cheng, seeing that it was almost done, handed the remote control to Yun Qi.
Yunqi immediately knew what he was doing with the alarm clock. He set the alarm to the alarm time, and the shrill sound of the alarm clock was particularly jarring on the open plain. Even the howling wild boars below were stunned and didn't react for a moment.
Si Cheng lowered the jingling alarm clock down by the rope, occasionally waving it in front of the wild boars.
The wild boars could no longer tolerate this endless provocation, and several of them pounced directly on the alarm clock.
As they pounced, Si Cheng pulled them upwards. One of the wild boars lost its footing and crashed into the stone wall. Due to the excessive force, three of the boars had their brains splattered, while the other two, having crashed into their companions, had their tusks driven into their bodies.
Yun Qi couldn't believe his eyes as he watched these wild boars just stupidly commit suicide, taking care of several of them without even using any weapons.
Si Cheng did not stop after he had already caught three wild boars. He continued to shake the alarm clock in his hand, provoking the wild boar herd below.
Perhaps the large wild boars that crashed into the rock wall earlier were the parents of the wild boars behind, and now even the baby wild boars have started attacking the alarm clock.
However, Si Cheng thought that he couldn't cultivate these wastelands in a short time, so he wanted to leave the wild boars here to continue growing. So he took the alarm clock back.
Seeing that they had lost their target, the wild boars began to howl at Sicheng and his companions on the stone wall.
Yunqi was a little puzzled as to why he had taken the alarm clock away at this time. He thought to himself, but then asked the question out loud.
"We can't clear this land for the time being. Let these little wild boars grow a bit more. Give me the bow and arrows, and I'll shoot a few more big ones."
Yunqi thought that this place was like a natural breeding ground, and that whoever settled here would be able to solve their immediate problem with this group of wild boars.
"Then let's just shoot the big ones." Yunqi handed him a bow and arrow, and took one for himself and started aiming.
The two men were quite accurate, and as the arrows flew from their hands, several more wild boars fell to the ground.
After seeing the lead wild boars fall to the ground, the herd began to stir. Some of the wild boars turned and ran away, and the rest followed closely behind.
"We're really rich now!" Yunqi exclaimed, grabbing Sicheng's arm as he looked at the pile of fat wild boars on the ground.
"Let's go down and collect them. It looks like we're already struggling to deal with these wild boars today, so we can't explore any further." Si Cheng hadn't expected to have so many finds before even starting to move.
"Wait a minute, I have to grill some wild boar meat with honey and eat it. No, I have to take out the barbecue grill and make more barbecue."
Thinking of the honey he had just collected and the wild boars, Yunqi couldn't resist practicing his cooking skills.
After collecting the eight wild boars, the two men didn't linger and went straight back to the reservoir. They set aside two to take out when they were almost at Pinghe Village, and began skinning and processing the rest.
Having a lake is very convenient; the two of them set up a large iron pot by the lake and boiled water right there.
They set aside the two largest wild boars to bring back to the village. The other six wild boars would be dissected here today.
"These wild boars are really fat. Look how thick their fat plates are." At this moment, Yun Qi was completely like a butcher, skillfully dismembering the wild boars with his knife.
Si Cheng knew that Yun Qi didn't want to deal with the internal organs, so he took all the internal organs out first and went to the side to deal with them.
"We can bring the people from our village to go hunting again then." This time, although the two said they had secretly acquired six large wild boars, if they weren't afraid of arousing suspicion, they would have liked to bring back more.
"That's right, it would be such a waste otherwise. I just wonder if there are any more surprises ahead."
"Let's set off tomorrow and head towards that plain to take a look." Before, the two of them had only focused on the wild boar herd and had overlooked what else was around them.
The two were just talking about their surprise when they saw small ripples appearing on the water. On a day without even a breeze, the small ripples on the water must be caused by living creatures swimming around, and it couldn't be caused by the wind.
It was only then that the two realized that the blood from processing wild boar meat by the lake had attracted fish from the lake.
After observing carefully for a while, Yunqi discovered that the bottom of the lake near them was already densely packed with many fish.
"I was just talking about a surprise, and here it is! I've discovered this place is truly a treasure trove; we've had a very fruitful day." Yunqi looked at the many fish at the bottom of the lake and began to eagerly try them out again.
"Didn't we have some big nets before? Find them, I'll cast two nets in a bit."
Si Cheng was also very happy to see the fish at the bottom of the lake. You see, the lake at the entrance of the village was probably because every household was setting traps and fishing too frequently, so the harvest was gradually decreasing. Sometimes, only one or two fish would be caught every two or three days.
Because of this, people in the village now bring home fish of all sizes. The big fish are slaughtered, and the small fish are raised in their own ponds. This has created another type of aquaculture in the village, and people can occasionally catch some fish from their own ponds to improve their lives.
"Why didn't we think of setting two traps here before? What a waste of such good resources. We could have brought some reptiles from the plains to use as bait."
The fish at the bottom of this lake are not like the animals on land; as soon as a person approaches, they swim away quickly.
“These scraps can also be used as bait.” Si Cheng saw her looking frustrated and pointed to the small bits of trash that had been peeled off and were about to be thrown away.
