Chapter 84: Killing wild boars with hoes
"Hehehe~" The wild boar howled more and more terrifyingly, and turned its head to rush towards Yang Chunyan. In a hurry, Yang Chunyan rolled on the ground to avoid the attack.
"Haha~haha~" The furious wild boar chased after him again...
"Yan'er~" Zhou Huaian's eyes turned red when he saw this. He shouted, drew out the dagger from his waist, jumped down from the tree and pounced on the wild boar. He stabbed the wild boar's butt with a "puff". He gritted his teeth and grabbed the wild boar's tail with one hand.
"Haha~haha~" The wild boar roared miserably in pain, twisted its head and spun around madly, but couldn't bite its enemy.
Zhou Huaian grabbed the pig's tail tightly, quickly drew his knife, stabbed it into the wild boar's anus, stirred it vigorously a few times, drew his knife and stabbed it again, and the pig's blood sprayed all over his face.
"Huaian~" Yang Chunyan got up, picked up the hoe and rushed forward again.
"Don't come over here, I'm fine!"
"Let's fight and kill it~" Zhao Huifang and the other two could no longer hide, so they rushed forward with hoes in their hands, and hacked at the wild boar with all their might. There were several muffled "puff, puff" sounds, and the wild boar's howling pierced through the woods.
A few people swung the pointed pickaxes of their hoes regardless of the consequences and rushed towards the wild boar. The wild boar let out a final howl, shook off Zhou Huaian and ran for his life. It did not run far before it fell to the ground with a muffled thud.
Several people sat on the ground in shock, gasping for breath as they watched the wild boar twitching on the ground in fear.
Zhou Huaian was exhausted and lying on the ground, looking at Yang Chunyan, "Silly woman, why didn't you run when I told you to? What if a wild boar bites you?"
Although he complained, he felt warm in his heart. His wife was so good. She didn't leave him alone even in such a dangerous situation.
Yang Chunyan glanced at him in reproach, "Why don't you run? Besides, I know the wild boar is injured. We still have a chance of winning together. You definitely can't win alone."
She knew that although this man was not very reasonable, he was the best to her.
Zhang Xiuxiang and the other two were too scared to go out and help just now, and now they feel guilty and ashamed, "Youngest, don't blame Chunyan, she is worried about you!"
Zhou Huaian sat up and bowed his hands in thanks, "Thank you sisters-in-law for your help. I was almost scared to death just now."
Zhao Huifang said embarrassedly: "Youngest, we are happy if you don't blame us for being too late."
"Oh~" Zhou Huaian waved his hand nonchalantly, "You are women, it's normal to be afraid."
Yang Chunyan suddenly noticed that Zhou Huaian's gray trouser legs were stained with blood. "Huaian, was your leg bitten by a wild boar?"
Zhou Huaian looked at his left leg, lifted up his trouser leg and found a three or four inch long bloody wound on his calf caused by the wild boar's tusks. He felt the pain in his calf throbbing when he saw the wound. "Damn it, I still got a bad mouth!"
"Don't move. I'll sprinkle some hemostatic medicine on you!" Yang Chunyan hurriedly found a kettle, unscrewed the lid and rinsed the wound. She took out hemostatic powder from her pocket and sprinkled it on the wound. "It's quite deep."
"Ouch!" Zhou Huaian grimaced in pain, "I just realized how painful it is that my leg bar is throbbing!"
"Wild boar teeth may be poisonous, so it's better to take some pills." Yang Chunyan said as she took out a medicine bottle, poured out three pills for him, and asked him to chew them up and swallow them with water.
Seeing that she was so worried about him, Zhou Huaian looked at her with shining eyes and felt very happy.
Yang Chunyan gave him a reproachful look, then she took some ground ivy from her backpack, chewed it up, and applied it to his leg, bandaging it with a handkerchief. "Let's go to Ning'an tomorrow to see Doctor Wang for a few stitches."
Zhou Huaian was afraid of even getting an injection, and was even more scared when he heard that he would need a few stitches. "Why spend that money? It's just a bloody wound, it's okay."
"The beast's teeth are very poisonous. The wound is a bit deep. A few stitches will help it heal faster."
"It's okay, just rest at home for two days."
Li Qiuyue looked at her curiously, "Chunyan, you brought medicine with you when you went out?"
"Yes, I brought snake medicine, hemostatic medicine and active oil."
"You're very thoughtful. Buy some for us next time we go to the city."
"good!"
After they rested for a while, Zhang Xiuxiang said, "They all said that wild boars are very powerful. I didn't expect that we could kill them."
"This wild boar is injured." Zhou Huaian looked at the wild boar lying motionless on the ground. "I think it must have stepped on the trap first, and then got shot in the mouth, so it ran down the mountain madly."
Zhang Xiuxiang and the others suddenly realized, "So that's how it is. I was just wondering why this wild boar is so weak!"
"Still weak? If it gets stronger, I don't know how it will end!" Li Qiuyue stood up and stretched her neck to look at the motionless wild boar below, "Youngest, the wild boar seems to be dead!"
Zhou Huaian took a look and said, "There are bloody holes all over the body, and the pig's trotters and mouth are injured. It would be strange if it didn't die."
Li Qiuyue didn't dare to go down alone, and looked at Zhou Huaian, "Youngest, let's go down and take a look!"
"You guys stay here, I'll go down and take a look first!"
"Huaian, your legs!" Yang Chunyan said worriedly.
"There's no more bleeding, just stay here and don't move!"
Zhou Huaian walked down the hill with a hoe, limping cautiously as he approached. Seeing that the wild boar's belly had stopped moving, he raised the hoe and poked the wound on the wild boar's butt. When he saw no more movement, he turned his head and said, "Come down, it's already dead."
Several people ran down the hillside. Zhang Xiuxiang looked at the wild boar and said, "Youngest, I think this pig must weigh at least 100 to 200 kilograms. Can we take it back?"
"We can still lift it, but the herbs," Zhou Huaian thought for a moment, "Let's hide the herbs first and carry them tomorrow."
Of course, herbs worth ten or twenty yuan are not as valuable as a wild boar. Although the women were reluctant, they agreed to it.
Zhao Huifang thought about it and said, "There are five of us. The youngest one can help us take turns and carry back the kudzu roots and Polygonum multiflorum we dug up."
Zhou Huaian nodded, "Okay! You guys go clean up, I'll tie up the pig!"
"Hmm!" Yang Chunyan and the other three went back and saw that the piece of kudzu root that Zhou Huaian had thrown to kill the wild boar had been stepped on and smashed to pieces.
A few people poured the herbs into the bushes, put the dug-out kudzu roots into a backpack, packed up their gear and went down the hill.
Zhou Huaian and Yang Chunyan had already tied up the wild boar. They took out machetes from their backpacks and chopped two wooden sticks to lift the boar.
Yang Chunyan and three other people walked back, leaning on wooden sticks and carrying the wild boar.
Zhou Huaian carried Pueraria root, Polygonum multiflorum and other stuff on his back, and limped along with the four women, leaning on a wooden stick.
Li Qiuyue looked at the trap on the wild boar and felt a little scared. "Luckily there is a trap on the pig's hoof, otherwise it would be troublesome today."
Yang Chunyan looked at the somewhat creepy pig snout and said, "And the bullet that hit the pig snout, we are lucky today!"
Zhou Huaian looked smug, "Carry it back and scare the old man and the others."
The few of them changed routes several times on the road and finally reached the shallow hill behind the house before the sun set.
"No, I can't walk anymore." Zhou Huaian felt his injured leg trembling, and called a few people to put down the wild boar, "Sister-in-law, go back and ask my brother and others to come and carry it."
