Chapter 141: Jackals Hunting Pigs
Gao Mingcheng led everyone to stand up for Gao Feifei out of his own selfish desires, but he never expected that after this incident, his reputation in the village would become even brighter.
Even several surrounding villages have heard of his deeds, and when they mention him, everyone gives him a thumbs up.
The people in the village felt proud, especially the unmarried girls, who all felt safe.
Gao Shufang also became the object of envy among her younger sisters.
Because she has such a good brother!
With a brother like this, I will definitely not be bullied when I marry into my husband's family.
But some women scoffed at this. Aunt Huang even said in public: "Haha, with such a brother, who can Shufang marry? I'm afraid no one within a hundred miles will dare to marry Shufang!"
This statement is actually recognized by some people.
Luo Xiaohua also heard these words and had an indescribable feeling in his heart. On the one hand, he felt that what the second brother did was not wrong, but on the other hand, he was really afraid that it would affect Shufang's marriage.
While she was frowning, Gao Shufang was very happy. She had seen Aunt Huang being beaten and had also heard about someone being beaten by her husband. The fact that Gao Feifei had been beaten by her husband to the point of having a miscarriage had planted a thorn in the girl's heart.
Gao Feifei also has an older brother and a younger brother, plus cousins, a total of seven or eight people, but none of them stood up for Gao Feifei. The unmarried girls in the village saw this and were a little scared.
But Gao Mingcheng's emergence was like a ray of bright sunshine, shining over the entire Gaojia Village.
Seeing his daughter's proud and happy look, Luo Xiaohua felt even worse.
No, she had to talk to the second brother and ask him to stop being so overbearing. He had no relatives or friends with Gao Feifei, so why was he taking the initiative to do this for her?
After this incident, Gao Feifei's family members were not grateful to him. Instead, they felt some resentment. However, they did not dare to show it under the anger of the villagers.
Luo Xiaohua wanted to find trouble with Gao Mingcheng, but ultimately failed because Grandma Gao said that no matter who Gao Shufang would marry in the future, she would not marry a man who loved to beat people.
Although Gao Yuanjian felt that Gao Mingcheng was worrying too much, he did not want his daughter to be beaten and scolded by her husband after she got married, so he did not allow Luo Xiaohua to go to Gao Mingcheng to complain.
Gao Yuan saw that he did not beat his wife, and he rarely beat his daughter Gao Shufang. He beat his son the most. As long as his son was naughty and made mistakes, he would be beaten. Among them, the naughty Gao Mingcheng was beaten the most.
As for Gao Shufang, although Gao Yuanjian favored his son, he never beat his daughter. If his daughter did something wrong, he would just scold her at most.
Seeing her mother being humiliated, Gao Shufang covered her mouth and laughed, her smile was very happy.
After this incident, it was time to plant rice seedlings. The sun was high in the sky, and in the seven or eight hundred acres of fields, some people were pulling up the seedlings, some were carrying the seedlings to the fields, and others were bending over to plant rice seedlings.
Even the children, those over seven years old, have to help plant the rice seedlings, while the younger ones play and laugh on the ridges of the fields.
A year's plan begins in spring, and transplanting rice seedlings is a big event for the villagers. Gao Mingcheng and Xuanyuemei were also transplanting rice seedlings, but they only had one acre of land and they finished it quickly.
Gao Mingcheng went to help his grandmother, while Xuanyuemei went to help Xuanyueyu's family.
Xuanyi Yu is pregnant this year. Although the women in the village are not so pretentious, it is still a little cold to go to the fields barefoot at this time, so Zhang Chengyuan did not let Xuanyi Yu go to the fields to plant rice, and only let her do housework at home.
After the rice planting is completed, the spring farming for the year is almost done, and the following things will not be so busy.
Gao Mingcheng thought it was time to go into the mountains.
Spring is the season for animals to reproduce and thrive, so Gao Mingcheng does not go into the mountains to hunt frequently. Occasionally, when he goes into the mountains to check on the condition of the beehives, he also checks for traces of animals.
Since the beginning of spring, wild boars have been roaming around the mountains again, eating young bamboo shoots, gnawing on roots and rhizomes, searching for insects, rolling in the mud, and rubbing the thick layer of resin on the pine trees. Those days were very happy.
Gao Mingcheng also captured the traces of the yellow muntjac. Due to the characteristics of the yellow muntjac, they rarely move after occupying an area, so they are easy to find.
This time, Gao Mingcheng went into the mountains early in the morning. After entering the mountains, he actually witnessed the rare scene of jackals hunting wild boars.
In a relatively flat ravine, I saw a group of wild boars chewing delicious kudzu leaves. The wild boar family was not too large, with only eight members, six big ones and two small ones.
Just as they were happily gnawing at the food, a group of jackals quietly appeared and surrounded the wild boars. The jackals were very silent and alert in nature, and their movements were very agile, so the wild boars were completely unaware of the danger.
If Gao Mingcheng had not had such keen senses and happened to be standing on a hill, he would have been unable to detect the danger.
Last winter, Gao Mingcheng hunted a wild boar in the oak forest. He was discovered by jackals at that time and followed all the way down the mountain. Although there was no conflict between the two sides, it also showed that jackals are good at lurking and agile movements.
Suddenly, howling sounds came from all directions of the ravine, and along with the howling sounds, all the jackals hiding in the woods rushed towards the wild boars.
As soon as the howling started, the wild boars began to panic, because there were howling sounds from all directions and they were surrounded, so the wild boars instantly lost their escape direction and could only rush forward hastily. But when they rushed in front of the jackals, several jackals suddenly jumped up and grabbed at the wild boars' eyes. This was their usual trick, first they surrounded and blinded the prey's eyes, then bit off the ears, nose, and lips, and tore the skin, and then shared the internal organs and meat.
Some also attack directly the prey's anus, scratching and biting, pulling out the internal organs, and it won't take long to divide the prey up completely.
Their hunting methods are extremely cruel.
What’s even more terrifying is that they often hunt in groups of one or even two or three, and the number can be as many as thirty!
At this time, there were at least twenty jackals in the ravine, and the howling sounds they had made before were of a summoning nature. If there were still jackals around, they would run towards this side when they heard the howling sounds.
The herd of wild boars was soon dispersed by the jackals. Although the wild boars were large in size, they were quickly dispersed by the jackals' siege and chase. The male wild boars with better physical fitness and more ferocious temperament were the first to run away, and the sows and piglets fell behind.
With a whoosh, a jackal suddenly jumped high, quickly shortened the distance between it and its target prey, and then landed accurately on the head of the target prey. Its sharp claws instantly blinded the target prey's eyes!
After the wild boar was injured, it let out a wailing sound, but this did not make the hunter soft-hearted. Immediately, the other five or six jackals surrounded the injured wild boar. Their claws were sharp and their teeth were sharp, constantly leaving scars on the wild boar's body.
The wild boar was wailing at first, but soon the sound gradually weakened, and in the end only the groaning sound of its last gasp remained.
When Gao Mingcheng saw the wild boar that was already beaten to a pulp, he felt a chill in his heart.
Even though they caught one prey, the other jackals did not give up. They were still chasing another wild boar, and this wild boar was even more miserable, with its anus ripped out!
After hunting two wild boars, it was enough for the jackal pack to enjoy, so the jackals stopped chasing and began to devour them in silence.
Gao Mingcheng, who witnessed all this, quietly left the hill. He clenched the javelin in his hand and ran quickly in one direction.
He noticed that although the other two wild boars were not hunted by the jackal pack, they were already injured. One of them even had an eye injured, and it escaped hastily with only the other eye.
Now, Gao Mingcheng is going to pick up leftovers.
Well, to be precise, you have to take advantage of the pig's unpreparedness and pick up something cheap on the spot.
