The method is very simple: just place the wooden sticks on top of the pit in a "well" shape, and then cover them with something to cover them.
He used this method to kill the wild boar last time.
But this time there were some differences, because he used thicker wooden sticks and the frames were placed more densely.
The reason, of course, is to catch them all in one fell swoop.
One or two wild boars can stand on it without any problem, but if there are more than that number, the trap will collapse.
This will maximize profits.
The trap frame was set up in no time, and then some plant leaves were laid on top...
They then had everyone gather many dry branches and leaves from the surrounding area as camouflage.
After everything was prepared, Ye Feng carefully checked it and nodded in satisfaction.
The trap has almost blended into the surrounding ground.
It is very difficult to distinguish between real and fake with the naked eye.
"Come on, let's use the bait."
Ye Feng called out to everyone, mentioning that there were quite a few entrails from the giant arapaima earlier.
Apart from some vital organs like the liver, everything else—intestines, gills, gallbladder, liver, and even plant roots, stems, and leaves—was dumped all in the center of the trap.
"ah!…"
Ye Feng finally breathed a sigh of relief after finishing his work.
"Now, let's just wait for the feast to arrive."
Liu Sisi reminded her from the side:
"Brother Feng, what about the smell? Red River wild boars have a very keen sense of smell. They should be able to smell us, right?"
"snort…"
Ye Feng chuckled dismissively.
"Don't worry, even if they smell it, they'll still take the bait."
Why?
Ye Feng glanced at her.
"Because pigs are notoriously gluttonous. As long as the danger isn't overtly obvious."
They will also boldly choose their food, let alone when they are starving.
Such a sumptuous meal, are we really going to stop eating it just because we smelled some unknown aroma?
It obviously doesn't exist.
"Haven't you always wanted to hunt yourself? Get ready. You're allowed to fire your arrows, but you must follow my instructions."
Upon hearing this, Liu Sisi's face immediately lit up with a smile.
"Yay!"
She quickly took out her wooden bow and asked Ye Feng for an arrow.
She had indeed thought about hunting for a long time.
She skipped and hopped up a big tree, feeling even happier than when she ate taro dumplings.
Seeing this, everyone immediately climbed up the treehouse's own big tree and perched on the branches.
"You must remember that the prerequisite for firing arrows is that the trap has been triggered."
This time will be very short, possibly less than a second.
Therefore, you must aim in advance, otherwise the other wild boars will quickly scatter.
"knew."
Everyone responded, and Ye Feng immediately climbed up to his designated shooting position.
His tree has branches that grow separately on the left and right sides, about six or seven meters above the ground.
He then hung his left and right legs on the branches, holding a bow in his left hand and an arrow in his right, his body pressed tightly against the trunk.
The person was in an extremely abstract and awkward posture, with their head tilted to the side, scanning their surroundings.
After the voices of the few people subsided, the woods returned to silence.
The chirping of birds became especially dense as the sunlight gradually faded.
Time passed by second by second, and in the blink of an eye, about half an hour had passed.
The sun was slowly sinking below the mountains, and the sky was turning yellow.
The crowd's initial excitement gradually turned into restlessness.
Among them, Qi Xiaojie was the most restless.
Since Ye Feng had instructed him not to make a sound, he could only point to the sky from time to time and gesture continuously.
Ye Feng naturally understood what he meant; this kid was clearly still scared by the jaguar from last time.
Ever since that night trip, Qi Xiaojie has been calling his sister or someone else to help him urinate every time he needs to at night.
One night, he needed to defecate, but no one was willing to accompany him.
As a result, he held it in until dawn, and finally, in a half-awake state, Ye Feng smelled a foul odor.
Upon questioning, it was discovered that the boy had actually soiled his pants pocket.
This shows how afraid he is of the dark; he's practically developed a psychological trauma from it.
Ye Feng looked up at the sky, his expression showing no worry. Instead, he stretched and slowly nocked his bow and arrows.
Wild boars are known to forage at dusk, and this is when they are most frequently seen.
In addition, it is the mating season, and the mating time of Red River boars is not fixed, so they have to do it immediately when they are in heat.
Moreover, boars are extremely vigorous, usually lasting ten to twenty minutes at a time, which is more intense than most men.
So they are almost inseparable, which allows them to do their work anytime, while the boar is also responsible for protecting the sow.
To prevent other boars from taking advantage of the situation.
Ye Feng was full of confidence for this hunt. He had the right timing, location, and people, so there was no reason for him to fail.
He calmly waved to the crowd, signaling them to be quiet.
Seeing his calm and composed expression, the others had no choice but to continue waiting.
Time flew by, and another ten minutes passed.
Just as they were getting anxious, several red figures slowly appeared in the woods not far away.
As the highly recognizable squeal of a pig rang out, everyone immediately perked up.
The pigs are coming...
Before long, the five pigs leisurely walked to a spot ten meters away from the trap.
The lead wild boar was significantly larger than the others, clearly a male.
Ye Feng and Qi Xiaoyan quickly drew back half of the bow, and Qi Xiaojie also took out a stone.
This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity; if you miss it, you'll likely never get to eat pork again.
While excited, Ye Feng inadvertently caught a glimpse of Liu Sisi gesturing at him from directly in front of him.
She pointed at the boar at the very front, shaking her head repeatedly, her lips moving slightly.
Ye Feng frowned, and after a moment, he could barely understand the meaning from her lip movements.
This boar doesn't seem to be the same one Liu Sisi encountered that day.
Ye Feng looked speechless, inwardly complaining.
"What's the big deal? During mating season, wild boars fight for mating rights and dominance. Isn't that perfectly normal?"
But as soon as he said that, he suddenly realized that the downy hair on the tips of the wild boar's ears didn't seem to be as long as Liu Sisi had described.
The tail and teeth are also slightly different.
However, Ye Feng didn't think much of it. He gave the others a wink and continued to draw the bowstring.
At that moment, five wild boars were sniffing the ground with their snouts.
Their heads swayed and rose and fell, and their grunting sounds seemed to be a form of communication, but it was unclear what they were trying to express.
Delicious food was right in front of them, but they just paced back and forth, refusing to move forward.
Ye Feng immediately sensed something was wrong; this behavior was very unusual.
Clearly, they had already smelled the scent on everyone.
