"Shh..."
Without waiting for Leng Mengyao and Shen Keyin, who were pulling the trailer, to return to his side, Lu Xuan gestured to the two girls from a distance to silence them. The two girls immediately understood and slowed down their movements, even pushing the cart with caution.
Now Lu Xuan was almost completely certain that something must be happening in the jungle a few hundred meters behind him.
While Lu Xuan was observing the movements behind him from time to time, he gestured to the three girls, indicating that the four of them should work together to lift the wild boar onto the cart.
The three girls nodded in unison, and the four of them quietly slowed down their movements, working together to drag the 300-pound wild boar onto their cart bit by bit.
“Swoosh…”
At the same time, a whistle was heard from the jungle behind them.
Human!?
When Lu Xuan heard the sound, his first reaction was that there were humans in the jungle behind him.
It is true that this wild boar is extremely powerful, with thick skin and flesh, and is quite difficult to deal with. However, compared to humans who rely on their brains to make a living, Lu Xuan would rather face the threat of the wild boar head-on.
“Is there anyone?!”
The three girls obviously heard the whistle made by humans, and their expressions suddenly became nervous.
Lu Xuan didn't say another word, but just made a gesture of silence again, and then pointed in the direction of his cave.
The meaning was very clear. Now this group of people only had two things to do. First, keep quiet as much as possible; second, return to their own cave as quickly as possible.
The four of them tacitly chose to remain silent, and then carefully worked together to drag the cart loaded with 300 kilograms of wild boar.
Fortunately, my cart is a high-end product. It is not only sturdy and reliable, but also equipped with silent wheels. Even when driving on the grass, it is smooth and quite powerful.
Within ten minutes, the four of them had quietly pushed the cart to the lawn in front of the lake.
As the cave was getting closer, several whistles were heard behind him again.
It is obvious that there is more than just one "human" in the jungle behind him.
Five minutes later, when they successfully pushed the 300-pound wild boar into their cave, everyone dared to breathe a sigh of relief.
"Handsome guy, who is that?"
Yin Yichen gulped down half a bottle of water, supported her slender waist and pointed towards the jungle on the south side.
Leng Mengyao and Shen Keyin also looked towards the jungle.
"It should be a savage..."
On the way back, Lu Xuan had already caught a glimpse of the figure of a savage through the telescope. He was holding a bamboo fork and wearing a grass skirt, a typical primitive man.
"Are there really wild men? How many of them are there? Will they come to us?"
Hearing the word "savage", Shen Keyin and Yin Yichen both looked terrified. After all, they had only seen this savage in TV dramas. They never thought that they would actually see a living one today, and it was just a few hundred meters behind them.
"There should be no less than three. It seems they were attracted by the smell of blood. We must deal with this wild boar as soon as possible."
Although the wild boar was successfully dragged back to its cave, it also brought back the strong smell of blood.
Lu Xuan knew very well that his top priority now was to get rid of the wild boar's body immediately without wasting a moment.
"Help me drag this wild boar to the beach. I'll kill it now. Wash the blood off the lawn in the backyard and don't go out."
Pushing the cart directly to the beach, Lu Xuan immediately transformed into a butcher. Although his knife skills were average, fortunately the knife in his hand was sharp enough.
With one chop, the 300-pound wild boar was split into five pieces, and then immediately rinsed with sea water to remove the internal organs.
The girls also carefully washed away the bloodstains in the backyard.
"Lu Xuan, it seems that those savages didn't come here."
The good news is that for some unknown reason, the group of savages did not choose to come to their side.
"Looks like I'll have to go find a freezer on the yacht someday. Even if there's no electricity, it'll give me more storage space."
Lu Xuan spent a lot of effort and finally managed to deal with the wild boar. Although his knife skills were poor and time was very tight, the amount of pork he managed to keep was estimated to be only about 150 pounds. But even this little bit of meat was enough for his group to use for ten days to half a month. The only pity was that he didn't have a good place to store it.
If you want to preserve it for a long time, the only methods you can use now are pickling and air drying.
In order to cover up the smell of blood, Lu Xuan and the girls worked together to dig a hole on the right side of the front yard and buried the inedible parts.
Chen Keyin naturally would not forget the baby bird. Although the baby bird was small, it was a real carnivore. Fortunately, the other party did not seem to be picky about food. As for the remaining internal organs and minced meat, the little guy accepted them all and devoured nearly a pound in one meal.
"Lu Xuan, will those savages come back?"
Shen Keyin was obviously still afraid of the group of uninvited savages. Even though there was no movement in the backyard at this time, the girl still looked frightened.
"It's hard to say. We were lucky this time and were one step ahead of them. But sooner or later we have to be prepared to face them head-on. I'll go on the yacht and look for arrows in the next two days. If I really don't have any, I'll try making a few myself..."
Lu Xuan knew very well that he could not escape the fifteenth day of the lunar month, and he could not escape the temple even if he never went out again. Therefore, it was only a matter of time before he faced this group of primitive people head-on.
If that day really comes, long-range weapons will become crucial.
"Lu Xuan, do you think there might be any firearms on the yacht? Even a hunting rifle would be a huge advantage to us."
Leng Mengyao was even more far-sighted than Lu Xuan. Even if he had a proper bow and arrow, his archery skills wouldn't be good enough. Without ten days or half a month of practice, he wouldn't even be able to shoot an arrow. However, if he could get his hands on a firearm, the situation would be completely reversed.
"We'll go aboard and look for it someday. Unless there's something urgent, we shouldn't go to the backyard much these past two days. Leave one person on duty in the back cave at night."
Considering the safety issue, Lu Xuan decided not to go to his backyard for the time being. Anyway, the current backyard defense project can still barely cope with it.
The three girls looked at each other. After a busy day, each of them looked grimmer than the other. They had planned to take a good shower and change clothes after they were done, but Lu Xuan had issued a lockdown order.
"Lu Xuan, let's go to the beach... and take a look..."
After hesitating for a while, Shen Keyin hesitated and pointed to the front of the cave...
